Chapter 2005: Collective Petrification
“Lord Dragon, long time no see!”
The ruler of Aquilandia, Fekochi, greeted Billy. He and Billy were old acquaintances, having met under less than friendly circumstances initially.
“Hello, Your Majesty,” Billy nodded.
Then, he turned to the camps of the Ten Western Nations and the Ten Southeastern Nations. “Are you all allies of Northfortia?”
“Lord Dragon, don’t misunderstand. We are here to negotiate cooperation with Glavale…”
“Lord Dragon, we bear no ill will towards Glavale…”
“Lord Dragon, we have no relations with Northfortia…”
One after another, the rulers spoke up, sensing the cold aura emanating from Billy. They had already been intimidated by Emperor Greenleaf and Stephanie Stuart’s presence. Now with the even more terrifying Lord Dragon, they wouldn’t dare entertain any other thoughts.
Their visit to Glavale was less about being influenced by Northfortia and more about trying their luck to secure some benefits for their own countries. Northfortia’s influence and deterrence had long waned, so they weren’t genuinely here to support them.
“This must be the famous Mr. Billy?” Zac Henderson of the Sunstruck Sect stepped forward.
“You’re just in time. You should have more say in matters concerning the Forbidden Ruins Space…”
“You come from the Forbidden Ruins Space?” Billy glanced at him.
“Billy, he’s from the Sunstruck Sect in the Forbidden Ruins Space,” Edie Fennimore’s voice reached Billy’s ear. “I just asked around Skydragon City; he’s notorious for his crimes!”
“Besides the few from the Sunstruck Sect, the other two sects that came are also not good people!”
“Understood,” Billy nodded and looked at Zac Henderson. “You should end your life now; I’ll leave your body intact.”
“What do you mean?” Zac Henderson was stunned.
“You don’t understand my words?” Billy’s tone turned cold. “Your life is mine. If you end it yourself, I’ll leave your body intact.”
Hearing this, the other five members of the Sunstruck Sect stood up simultaneously, their expressions tense.
“Mr. Billy, we traveled a long way to discuss matters concerning the Forbidden Ruins Space with Emperor Greenleaf. Isn’t your action inappropriate?” Another elder from a different sect stood up.
Immediately, all those who came from the Forbidden Ruins Space stood up, totaling around fifty or sixty people. From their auras, it was clear they were skilled individuals, specifically chosen for this mission.
“Aunt Edie, can we kill them all?” Billy ignored them and turned to Edie Fennimore, raising his voice deliberately.
“Yes,” Edie Fennimore responded.
“Good,” Billy nodded.
“Don’t be arrogant!” Zac Henderson shouted angrily and then looked at the others. “Since he wants our lives, let’s fight him together!”
“Alright!” Fifty-six people responded in unison.
“Lord Lynn, Glavale clearly doesn’t want to back down. Are you still planning to grovel?” Zac Henderson then looked at Lynn.
Lynn took a deep breath, a look of struggle flashing in his eyes. He wanted to act but didn’t dare to gamble.
“Your Majesty, I will join Master Zac Henderson to fight this Lord Dragon of Glavale!” Northfortia’s second-in-command spoke in a deep voice.
“Rogers, this matter still needs…” Lynn began.
“Attack!” Before he could finish, Zac Henderson roared and charged towards the stage.
Following him, the fifty or sixty sect members and a hundred Northfortia soldiers led by Rogers followed closely behind.
“You court death!” At the same time, Central Sky Office and Imperial Guards around them prepared to act.
However, before they could move, an anomaly occurred mid-air. The hundred-plus people suddenly stopped mid-air as if they had been immobilized but didn’t fall.
From their expressions, it was clear that everyone was utterly terrified.
“Spare us…” one man shouted loudly.
Before he could finish his sentence, blood mist erupted mid-air like fireworks, colorful and dazzling. A gust of wind blew through, dispersing the blood mist and restoring the sky to its original state as if nothing had happened.
Silence!
The vast training ground fell into dead silence, only heavy breathing could be heard. Even Emperor Greenleaf and his entourage showed expressions of shock.
They couldn’t help but be astonished! They hadn’t seen Billy make a move; he just stood there without moving an inch, and over a hundred people were gone!
It was known that Zac Henderson had early Sacred Realm cultivation but didn’t even have a chance to struggle before being obliterated!Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Such skill was breathtaking!
This level of strength exceeded their understanding of martial arts!
“Does anyone else have any objections?” Billy looked towards Northfortia and the Ten Western Nations.
Everyone remained silent collectively.
With such skill, who would dare have any objections? Even if all three or four thousand people present attacked simultaneously, it would likely be over in a thought!
“You Northfortia had many ideas just now. Let’s hear them!” Billy looked at Lynn.
Lynn opened his mouth but couldn’t utter a word; he didn’t know what to say.
“Nothing to say?” Billy’s voice turned cold. “Then listen to me!”
With that, his eyes narrowed slightly as an extremely terrifying spiritual power surged out.
In an instant, another anomaly occurred on-site. Nearly twenty thousand people from Northfortia, the Ten Western Nations, and the Ten Southeastern Nations floated into mid-air as if by magic.
Finally, they hovered about ten meters above the ground. Simultaneously, everyone realized that apart from their heads, their bodies were entirely immobilized!
“Lord Dragon, spare us!”
“Don’t kill me; spare me!”
“I don’t want to die!”
Many shouted in terror, including Lynn, whose face was filled with horror!
They had no doubt that if Billy wanted their lives, it would be over in a thought!
“A century ago, during Glavale’s calamity, millions of our citizens were slaughtered by your nations!” Billy spoke coldly.
His voice amplified by Chi power reached everyone’s ears: “Today, even if I kill you all, it wouldn’t be too much!”
“Spare us…” many shouted again simultaneously.
“A few years ago, I already taught you a lesson!” Billy continued loudly.
“If not for Emperor Greenleaf’s benevolence, many of your countries would have ceased to exist back then!”
“I thought you would learn from it, but I didn’t expect you to return today!”
“Do you really think Glavale doesn’t dare do anything to you?”
As he spoke, an extremely cold killing intent swept towards the sky.
Everyone’s faces showed utter terror again!
