That evening, the group found a hotel in the secondrgest city in the Northern Pr Domain, Northwell City, to stay. Although they called it a hotel, it was actually just a ce for Casey and the others to recuperate from their injuries, while the rest of the group continued their cultivation through the night.


    After a night of recovery, Casey and the others’ injuries were mostly healed, and their spirits were back to normal. Around four o’clock in the afternoon, Azure Fang and the others arrived at the hotel to join everyone. Upon seeing Opal, they greeted her warmly.  Then, Harleen introduced Amber Barnes to Azure Fang and the others.


    “Boss, we have a general understanding of the Guardians’ situation!” After Amber and the four of them got to know each other, Azure Fang looked at Billy and spoke.


    “Tell us!” Billy nodded slightly.


    Azure Fang nodded and began to exin. “The total number of Guardians in the Pr Domain is about twenty thousand, evenly distributed in the four regions: north, east, South, and west.” Although the number of people in each region is simr, the west is the strongest in terms ofbat power, while the south is the weakest. The first leader in each region is the Provincial Governor, but the Guardians as a whole have another institution simr to an Elder Council above the Provincial Governors.”


    “Oh?” Billy squinted his eyes slightly. “Who are they?”


    “I don’t know the specifics yet, but I know there are five of them in total.” Night Orchid interjected. “They usually stay in the Central Pr Domain and do not participate in the daily management of the Guardians. They only appear during major changes or when there are elections.”


    “Orchid, how often do they hold elections?” Harleen asked.


    “Every ten years!” Night Orchid responded. “And coincidentally, there are only ten days left until their ten-year election!”


    “How coincidental.” Harleen and Ivy were slightly stunned.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Night Orchid nodded.


    “Where is it taking ce?” Billy asked.


    “In Westbridge City, thergest public city in the Western Pr Domain!” Night Orchid replied.


    “Very well!” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly. “In ten days, we will go to Westbridge City!”


    “Alright!” Night Orchid nodded again.


    Around five o’clock in the afternoon, Billy received a call from Timothy Coates.


    “Commander Coates, where are you now?” Billy asked as he answered the phone.


    “We are currently in a valley more than a hundred kilometers away from Aqundia’s city, Lord Dragon.” Timothy Coates replied.


    “Send me the coordinates, I’lle over and meet you guys! Also, have Elder Wood and the others go to Aqundia’s city and keep an eye on things nearby, see if there are any movements.”


    “Understood!” Timothy Coates replied and hung up the phone.


    Shortly after, Billy led the group and headed towards Aqundia’s city by car. After about two hours, they arrived at the valley where the army was located.


    “Greetings, Lord Dragon!” Timothy Coates, apanied by Dous Whiteford and Patrick Nicholson, came over and saluted.


    “No need for formalities!” Billy raised his hand and asked, “Did Elder Wood and the others go there?”


    “Yes!” Timothy Coates nodded and continued, “Lord Dragon, should we surround the four gates of Aqundia’s city, just like we did with Veridianiast time?”


    “No,” Billy shook his head. “The situation in Aqundia is different from Veridiania. Our target is only a part of the people, not everyone!”


    “Understood!” Timothy Coates nodded in slight confusion and replied, “Let’s go!”


    Billy then led the group towards the direction of the city.  After about half an hour, the army arrived at a hill five kilometers away from the city.


    “Greetings, Holy Son!” Elder Wood and the other four first greeted Billy before turning to Opal and said, “Greetings, Fairy Fraley!”


    Opal nodded slightly. “How’s the situation? Any movements?”


    “Several waves of people, about seven to eight thousand in total, have entered the city one after another. They were probably recalled temporarily,” Elder Wood reported.


    “That’s inevitable!” Opal nodded again. After speaking, she turned to Billy and said, “Let’s go, meet them!”


    “Alright!” Billy nodded in response.


    Without any concealment, the massive army marched directly towards the city gates.


    “Who goes there?!” A man’s voice sounded from the front when the army was about a kilometer away from the gates. However, nobody paid him any attention, and the army continued towards the gates.


    “Enemies approaching, report to the city lord!” Seeing the situation, a hundred Aqundian men at the city gates hurriedly ran into the city.


    Before long, the army stopped about six to seven hundred meters away from the city.


    “Who dares to act recklessly in Aqundia?!” At the same time, an old man’s voice echoed in the air. Immediately, more than ten figures descended from different directions within the city, all of them powerful Saint realm experts. The one speaking was an old geezer with only a few strands of hair left on his head. From his aura, one could sense that he had reached the Fourth-rank Saint realm.


    Following closely behind him was an old woman wielding a staff, also possessing Fourth-rank Saint realm strength as well. Apart from the two of them, there were four Third-rank Saints, five Second-rank Saints, and three First-rank Saints among the others. Aqundia truly lived up to its reputation. Just by looking at these people in front of them, they were more than enough to crush those so-called Western powers like Xidengia and identa.


    At the same time, a mor erupted from within the city, and then forty to fifty thousand people rushed out from the gates. The several hundred people at the forefront were all Mid Sovereigns or higher in strength, with at least forty to fifty of them being Half-Step Saints.


    “Are you people from vale?” The old geezer, leading the group of Saints,nded a few hundred meters away from Billy and spoke up. “What audacity you have! We haven’te to settle the score with you yet, but you’ve willinglye to us! And just with this small number of people, do you really think Aqundia is like those small countries surrounding vale?”


    “Bring out your city lord, Garrard!” Billy ignored his words. He probed the strength of the opposing group and found that the highest was only a Fourth-rank Saint. Clearly, Garrard was not among them.


    ording to what Eligina had said before, Garrard held the position of the highestmander and city lord of Aqundia, with his cultivation already reaching the Fifth-rank Saint realm.


    “You want to see our city lord? Who do you think you are? You’re not worthy!” A Second-rank Saint elder responded.


    “You old fool, are you eager to reincarnate early?” Azure Dragon angrily retorted.


    “Go back and tell James Reynolds that we’ll give him one day toe to Aqundia and apologize, or…” The elder ignored Azure Dragon and continued to look at Billy, speaking loudly.


    “How dare you disrespect the Holy Son, you don’t know your own limits!” Elder Metal interrupted him. As he spoke, he raised his hand and unleashed a gust of forceful wind, sting towards the elder.
