"Another War Emperor?" Billy furrowed his brows. "You really seek death. I'll grant your wish."
As he spoke, he unleashed a powerful palm strike with full force, and a hurricane-like palm energy rushed forward.
The two attacks clashed violently, sending a tremendous shockwave in all directions. Rows of trees were snapped in half at their trunks, and leaves filled the air.
At the same time, the newcomer spurted blood into the sky and was sent flying backward. In mid-air, he left a curved trail of blood before crashing into the ground, creating a large pit. His bones shattered, and he lay there lifeless.
"How... how could it be possible?" With great effort, he managed to speak a few words before his head tilted to the side, life extinguished. His face wore an expression of disbelief.
After sending his opponent flying, Billy wasted no time and swiftly closed the distance again. Despite the few seconds' delay, he quickly caught up with the elderly man.
"How dare you kill a Sanctum of Darkness Elder, you're truly doomed!" The old man shouted as he ran, his voice filled with alarm. He couldn't believe how powerful Billy was.
"Stubborn fool, just lie down!" Billy's voice was stern. Immediately, he flicked his wrist, and his Bloodshadow Fury Blade appeared. A blood-red blade aura descended from the sky, slashing toward the old man.
Sensing the danger from behind, the old man tried to evade. Although he reacted quickly, he was still too slow. The blade aura brushed past his right knee, severing his lower leg, and he fell to the ground with a howl of pain.
Billy had done this deliberately; otherwise, the man wouldn't have had a chance to live.
"Ah..." The old man screamed in agony.
Billy swiftly moved closer and, with a flick of his wrist, sent three silver needles into the man's body.
"What are you doing?" The old man, trembling all over, asked in a trembling voice. After a pause, he exclaimed, "You sealed my cultivation!"
"If you don't want to suffer a living death, answer my questions." Billy said with a furrowed brow. He had sealed the man's cultivation to prevent him from taking his own life.
"Humph! I admit defeat in strength, but if you want information from me, you'll have to wait for your next life!" The old man wasn't willing to yield so easily.
Billy's eyes narrowed, and he shot several gusts of wind into the man's heart.
"Ah..." In the next moment, the old man writhed on the ground, his eyes filled with panic. He soon cried out, "I'll tell you... Please stop!"
Billy released another burst of wind, and the excruciating pain subsided. The old man lay on the ground, shivering like a pile of mud.
"Tell me. What does that jade pendant have to do with everything?" Billy asked.
