“You… Are you trying to eliminate the members of the aristocratic families and Ancient Martial Sect in various government offices?” The surprise on the gray-robed elder’s face deepened, and he couldn’t help but shudder involuntarily.
If this were orchestrated by the Cab, people on the list might still have a chance to survive, at worst losing their positions in government offices and returning to their sects. But if Billy was leading this, even a fool could guess the fate awaiting those on the list.
“You guessed it!” Billy shrugged once again.
The members of the Greenwood family, hearing this, finally understood the general situation. Their faces revealedplex expressions. On one hand, they hadn’t expected Billy to have such audacity to actually act against these people. Over the past few centuries, numerous people had attempted this, but all had failed. The reasons were twofold: pressure from the aristocratic families and Ancient Martial Sect and insufficient determination from the Capital Hall and the Cab, fearing the consequences.
On the other hand, the members of the Greenwood family hadn’t anticipated that Billy would entrust Joel Greenwood with this task. This move would undoubtedly ce the entire Greenwood family in a dangerous situation, regardless of whether Billy seeded or not. The aristocratic families and sects wouldn’t easily let go of what Billy had done.
Hearing this, the gray-robed elder exhaled heavily. After a brief pause, he looked at Billy. “Commander Gardner, this matter has been attempted by more than ten people over the centuries. The result was not only a failure but also the loss of their own lives. So, let me advise you not to overestimate your abilities. Some things are not as simple as you think, you…”
“You’re just bbering!” White Tiger gave the elder a disdainful nce, interrupting his words. Then, he turned to Billy and asked, “Boss, to kill or not to kill?”
“I’ll handle it,” Billy replied calmly.
White Tiger, currently at the level of War God-Emperor Minor Completion, had the strength to challenge higher levels, but having recently achieved this breakthrough, his cultivation hadn’tpletely stabilized. If they engaged inbat, the oue was uncertain.
“Commander Gardner, you…” The gray-robed elder took a deep breath and continued to speak to Billy.
“You have onest chance,” Billy interrupted. “Reveal your identities and tell me how you found out about Joel Greenwood doing this. Perhaps you can save one life!”
“Commander Gardner, you’re really pushing it. I…” The gray-robed elder began speaking again.
“Still don’t want to talk? Then go apany yourpanions!” Billy cut him off, and with a casual flick of his wrist, the blood-red de aura reappeared.
“Hmm?” The gray-robed elder trembled, didn’t hesitate, and quickly moved to the side. However, he had overestimated himself. With Billy’s current strength, facing him was like facing an ant, how could he dodge this sh?
After the de aura passed, just like the ck-robed elder before, the gray-robed elder’s body was cleaved into two halves, falling to the ground with blood spraying everywhere.
The remaining man and woman, realizing their luck had run out, turned and sprinted toward the exit without a trace of optimism. Both possessed intermediate-level cultivation and knew that staying behind would be a suicidal move. If they didn’t run now, escape would be an impossible dream.
“Can you?” White Tiger muttered in a deep voice as a sweeping de energy headed towards the male intruder, unstoppable.
“You’re seeking death!” The man retorted, his wrist flicking, unleashing a sword aura to meet the iing attack.
Their cultivation levels were on par. He feared Billy, while he dismissed White Tiger. However, in the next moment, his expression stiffened, and his pupils shrank to needle-like points. White Tiger’s de energy seemed to transcend all barriers, deflecting the sword momentum effortlessly and hurtling directly towards him, unstoppable. The man intended to dodge, but it was toote. Despite having simr cultivation, there was a vast gap in theirbat strength. Caught off guard and in a defensive stance, his reaction speedgged far behind the de’s velocity.
After the de passed, a cut appeared on the man’s throat, and a geyser of blood shot out. The man opened his mouth, unable to utter a word. A torrent of blood gushed out, and he copsed abruptly.
Bang!
Simultaneously, the remaining woman, under thebined assault of Night Orchid and Rakshasa, was sent flying. After crashing heavily about a hundred meters away, she somersaulted several times beforeing to a stop. Covered in numerous bloody wounds, her face turned pallid, and her breath weakened.
This was the merciful oue from Night Orchid and Rakshasa, who held back. If not for the intention to keep her alive, she would have met her demise.
“If you want to live, answer a few questions!” Billy strolled towards her.
“Humph!” The woman snorted. “Trying to get information from me? Try your luck in the next life! I’ll be waiting for you there, and you’ll join us soon!”
After saying this, a resolute gleam shed in her eyes, and her brows furrowed. A burst of blood mist erupted from her chest, followed by convulsions before she fell silent.
“What the hell! Did she kill herself?” White Tiger blurted.
Billy and the others were also slightly stunned.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
“Boss, these people would rather die than reveal their identities. Looks like they have some serious connections!” White Tiger continued, addressing Billy.
“White Tiger, it probably has nothing to do with their identities,” Night Orchid paused briefly before continuing. “Because they know that as long as they aren’t ancient monsters hidden for a century in major sects, SHADOW can easily uncover their identities.”
“Then what are they concerned about?” White Tiger frowned.
“they probably don’t want to disclose who informed them about Joel Greenwood’s matters!” Night Orchid responded with a thoughtful expression.
“Oh?” White Tiger was surprised. “Orchid, do you have any suspicions?”
“I don’t have a clear lead for now,” Night Orchid shook her head slightly. After a brief pause, she looked at Billy and suggested, “Boss, do you want to arrange for someone to investigate the recent activities and contacts of these four people?”
“No need!” Billy waved his hand. “The mastermind should surface on their own soon.”
“I see.” Night Orchid nodded.
“Thanks for Commander Gardner’s assistance!”
Dwayne Greenwood and his son, along with a group of the Greenwood family’s retinue, approached.
