Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“You overestimate yourself. I see you’re tired of living!”

The elder shouted fiercely, his sword flashing in several movements to meet the attack.

However, before he could finish his words, the blade’s light tore through his sword stance and shot straight past him.

In the next moment, a head flew into the air, a look of disbelief frozen on its face.

“Hmm?” A faint gasp sounded from the shadows nearby.

“Elder Philip?!” At the same time, Alani Osborn screamed, her face turning deathly pale.

She never imagined that the strongest person by her side, a half-step Perfection Emptiness Realm expert, would be slain by Billy with a single strike.

Only then did she realize fear, her body trembling as she fled backward in haste.

Her cultivation was passable, at the ninth-rank Heaven Dao Realm.

“Weren’t you going to kill me? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?” Billy’s voice reached her ears.

To him, the moment she harbored murderous intent, he had already sentenced her to death. There was no way he would let her leave alive!

“I am the eldest daughter of the Osborn family. If you dare kill me, the Osborn family will never let you…” Alani Osborn shouted as she ran.

Before she could finish her sentence, a blade’s light flashed, and her body fell from mid-air, her legs twitching as life left her.

Her face was filled with endless unwillingness; she probably never dreamed she would be killed like this!

After dealing with Alani Osborn, Billy casually unleashed a few more blade lights, and the other two Entering Emptiness Realm men fell one after another.

Two minutes later, Stout punched the last man to death and began collecting storage rings with glee.

“The Osborn family seems quite wealthy!” Shortly after, Stout returned with over twenty storage rings, smacking his lips.

The supreme-grade spirit stones in all the storage rings added up to no less than ten thousand pieces. There were also many sovereign-grade spirit stones and some Spirit Fruits and beast cores.

This put him in a much better mood.

“Let’s go back to the inn!” Billy said as he led Stout away.

Meanwhile, in an office of the Alchemists’ Alliance.

Juliana Frost sat on a sofa, sipping tea and pondering.

“Miss Frost!” About twenty minutes later, Dalton Frost knocked and entered.

“How did it go?” Juliana Frost asked.

“Just as rumored, he can leap a major realm to kill his opponent!” Dalton Frost still had a hint of astonishment on his face.

“The half-step Perfection Emptiness Realm expert by Alani Osborn’s side couldn’t even withstand half a move!”

“Really?” Juliana Frost exclaimed in surprise.

“Yes!” Dalton Frost nodded.

“And Alani Osborn?” Juliana Frost continued to ask.

“Dead!” Dalton Frost replied.

“Dead?” Juliana Frost was taken aback again. “He really is as ruthless as rumored! He kills without hesitation!”

“Miss Frost, how do you plan to handle this?” Dalton Frost asked.

“First, instruct everyone in the Alchemists’ Alliance not to engage him directly and treat him with respect!” Juliana Frost responded.

“We’ll discuss further actions after I report to my father.”

“Understood!” Dalton Frost nodded.

“Also, have someone keep an eye on them and see what they do next.” Juliana Frost continued after some thought.

“He specifically asked you about the Blade and Sword Sect; he must have a purpose!”

“Alright!” Dalton Frost responded again.

“And try to find out when they arrived in the mid-tier star domain.” Juliana Frost added after some thought.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Gather as much information as possible about what they’ve done since arriving.”

“Understood!” Dalton Frost said before bowing and leaving.

… By evening, Harleen and Casey returned to the inn with the others.

They each briefly described the information they had gathered to Billy, which matched what he had learned from Dalton Frost.

“Boss, how did it go at the Alchemists’ Alliance? Any gains?” White Tiger asked Billy.

“Hehe, we gained quite a bit!” Stout grinned.

He then recounted what had happened earlier to everyone.

“Boss, did Miss Frost of the Alchemists’ Alliance really give you ten Spirit Essence Pills?” Azure Dragon asked after hearing Stout’s story.

“Yes!” Billy smiled faintly. “Everyone rest for a bit; we’ll leave the city shortly!”

“Leave the city?” Azure Dragon and White Tiger were both puzzled.

“Boss, why leave the city?” Judge couldn’t help but ask.

“Judge, isn’t it obvious?” Amber smiled.

“The Yheng Institute might come after us soon. With our current strength, it’s hard to resist. Now that Billy has obtained Spirit Essence Pills, we need to seize the opportunity to improve our cultivation!”

“Why do we need to leave the city to improve our cultivation?” Judge continued to ask.

“Judge, you’re so dense!” Felicia pouted.

“My sister and Ivy, along with Opal, might attract Thunder Tribulation after taking the Spirit Essence Pills. Do you want everyone in the city to watch?”

“Moreover, Billy killed the eldest daughter of the Osborn family. They could send people after us at any time. We need a quiet place to cultivate.”

“Oh… that makes sense!” Judge chuckled.

An hour later, they left Bladesong City through the main gate and flew into the sky.

They flew for about an hour before landing in a valley ten thousand miles away from Bladesong City.

Everyone found a spot to sit cross-legged and began cultivating with Spirit Fruits and beast cores from their storage rings.

Early the next morning, Billy gave ten Spirit Essence Pills to Harleen and those with relatively high cultivation levels like Opal.

Harleen and nine others each took a Spirit Essence Pill.

Boom!

At eleven in the morning, Harleen inevitably faced Thunder Tribulation.

The once clear sky turned stormy with dark clouds and lightning flashing everywhere.

The tribulation process was similar to Billy’s recent experience. After a thunderous roar, a bolt of lightning tore through the sky towards Harleen.

With determination flashing in her eyes, Harleen wielded her feather sword and soared into the air.

A deafening crash followed as Harleen plummeted rapidly, creating a large crater upon impact and lying motionless for a while.

Thanks to Billy’s previous experience, everyone relaxed after sensing her heartbeat.

Billy didn’t move her but covered her with spiritual power, monitoring her body’s changes closely.

About fifteen minutes later, an immensely powerful aura erupted from her body.

“Boss, has Harleen also broken through to second-rank Entering Emptiness Realm like you?” Casey couldn’t help but ask after sensing Harleen’s aura.

“Indeed!” Billy smiled.

Just as Casey said, Harleen not only broke through to Entering Emptiness Realm but also reached second-rank Entering Emptiness Realm like Billy did recently!

Everyone gasped in amazement, their faces filled with surprise.
