Chapter 2031: Do You Want to Protect Him or Not
Sensing the power of Purple Spirit’s move, Maverick frowned slightly.
Not daring to be careless, he released Billy and raised his hand to form a seal, which he hurled forward.
However, he still underestimated the unity of man and sword in Purple Spirit’s move.
With a loud bang, his seal shattered, and the purple sword continued its swift advance towards him.
“Hmm?”
Maverick’s pupils contracted sharply as he quickly leaped a hundred meters to the side.
What he didn’t know was that once the unity of man and sword was formed, the target was locked, and it was impossible to dodge except by counterattacking.
In the next moment, the purple sword tore through his defensive aura and left a deep gash on his waist, exposing bone and spraying blood.
“Ugh…” Maverick grunted and leaped another four or five hundred meters away, his breath chaotic.
But it wasn’t over. Just as he steadied himself, a blade light slashed towards him.
Maverick frowned deeply and quickly formed a barrier wall in front of him.
After a loud explosion, the barrier wall shattered, and the shockwave threw Maverick a kilometer away, spitting blood into the air, his combat strength dropping to less than seven.
Without any pause, he instantly disappeared from his spot and reappeared several kilometers away.
By now, he had lost the will to fight. Staying any longer would mean certain death.
“Didn’t you want to kill me? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?” Billy pursued relentlessly.
He knew there would be a fierce battle with Yheng Institute sooner or later. Having caught some high-level combatants, he wouldn’t let them escape easily.
Purple Spirit didn’t hesitate and followed in pursuit.
As expected, there were no surprises!
After running for dozens of kilometers, Maverick was trapped in a barrier net formed by Billy.
Having lost the will to fight, Maverick was cut in half by Billy after ten rounds of joint attacks with Purple Spirit.
Like Boone before him, his face showed endless resentment!
Before coming today, he never thought he would die in Bladesong City, especially at the hands of an opponent in the early stage of Entering Emptiness Realm!
After dealing with Maverick, Billy and Purple Spirit turned towards the other members of Yheng Institute.
The ensuing battle lasted less than a quarter of an hour. All eight or nine members of Yheng Institute were slain, leaving no survivors.
“Sect Master, I’m sorry for implicating Sword Sect!”
After the battle ended, Billy approached Dorian Acevedo and the elders of Sword Sect. Purple Spirit had already entered his body to recuperate.
In this battle, two elders of Sword Sect were severely injured, barely surviving. Another three or four were also seriously wounded, but fortunately, no one died.
Dorian Acevedo and Jimmy Acevedo also had some injuries, with blood seeping from their mouths.
“Mr. Billy, you are too courteous!” Dorian Acevedo responded. “You are a distinguished guest invited by Sword Sect. Your matters are naturally Sword Sect’s matters!”
He spoke with deep emotion.
Two sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm experts from Grand Scribe Pavilion were killed by Billy and Purple Spirit!
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed it!
Initially, when Maverick and Boone appeared, he was thinking about how to resolve this crisis.
But before he could come up with a solution, Boone was already slain. He was speechless.
“Thank you!” Billy said as he took out silver needles to treat the elders’ injuries.
About an hour later, he managed to stabilize everyone’s injuries.
“Thank you, Mr. Billy!” Jimmy Acevedo and others bowed to Billy in gratitude.
“You are welcome!” Billy replied.
After a brief pause, he looked at Dorian Acevedo.
“Sect Master, after today’s events, if Yheng Institute comes again, it won’t be a small skirmish.”
“If I stay here, it will bring disaster to Sword Sect. I think it’s best if I leave…”
“Sword Sect doesn’t seek trouble but doesn’t fear it either!” At that moment, Clayton Acevedo’s voice rang out.
He walked over with Harleen and Casey.
He hadn’t intervened earlier, clearly guarding against other hidden experts from Yheng Institute.
“Greetings, Elder Clayton!” Billy and Dorian Acevedo bowed simultaneously.
“Is everyone alright?” Clayton Acevedo asked after inspecting their conditions.
“Thanks to Mr. Billy, we are fine!” Dorian Acevedo replied.
“Boss, are you okay?” Night Orchid and others asked Billy simultaneously.
“I’m fine!” Billy shook his head and looked at Clayton Acevedo.
“Elder Clayton, Yheng Institute lost so many people this time. If they come again, they might come in full force. Staying here longer will only bring more danger to Sword Sect…”
“Do you think leaving now will make Yheng Institute spare Sword Sect?” Clayton Acevedo responded. “Their people were killed at Sword Sect; we are already accountable!”
“That’s true, but if we leave…” Billy continued.
“A man should not be so indecisive if he wants to achieve great things!” Clayton Acevedo interrupted him again.
“Stay at Sword Sect without worry. If Yheng Institute wants to take you from Sword Sect, let’s see if they have the resolve!”
“Alright then!” Billy didn’t insist further and bowed slightly. “Thank you, Elder Clayton. Thank you, Sect Master!”
“Mr. Billy, you’re welcome!” Dorian Acevedo replied.
Then, Billy and his group followed Jimmy Acevedo back to Sword Pavilion.
Half an hour later, in the backyard of Sword Sect.
In an inconspicuous hall sat two people.
One was Clayton Acevedo; the other was Jericho Acevedo, the former Sect Master of Sword Sect and father of Dorian Acevedo!
“Elder Clayton, have you heard that Yheng Institute’s Dean Leon Schmitt broke through to eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm last month?” Jericho Acevedo asked Clayton Acevedo with a slightly grave expression.
From his tone, it was clear that Clayton Acevedo held a high position in his heart.
“Sure,” Clayton Acevedo nodded slightly.
“If he is determined to take down Sword Sect, we will struggle to resist,” Jericho Acevedo continued.
“Yes,” Clayton Acevedo nodded again.
“If we want to keep Billy here, we must prepare for the worst,” Jericho Acevedo said again. “Given our current situation, it’s very difficult!”
“What do you suggest?” Clayton Acevedo asked.
“The only way is to send Billy away and find a safe place for them,” Jericho Acevedo replied. “Without them here, Yheng Institute might not fight us to the end.”
“You are too naive!” Clayton Acevedo said. “Do you think Yheng Institute is targeting Billy just for revenge?”
“I know,” Jericho Acevedo nodded. “Their goal is the Nine Dragons Cauldron that Billy possesses!”
“Exactly!” Clayton Acevedo responded. “Even if we send him away, Yheng Institute will still pressure us to hand him over. The result will be the same!”
“I can’t think of any other solution…” Jericho Acevedo said again.
“I’ll take Billy to Blade Sect tomorrow!” Clayton Acevedo interrupted him.
“To Blade Sect?” Jericho Acevedo was slightly stunned. “Elder Clayton, what do you mean?”
“Tell me honestly, do you want to protect Billy or not?” Clayton Acevedo asked again.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
