Chapter 2078: Settling Scores!
At this moment, everyone’s condition was dire, each bearing severe injuries.
Without Purple Spirit, it would have been questionable whether they could all travel through the air together.
Billy’s powers were completely sealed, with no trace of energy fluctuations around him, and his face was as pale as wax.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
He had barely survived resisting two bolts of lightning earlier. Before he could catch his breath, the white-robed man had attacked him, leaving him with no chance to resist.
The only fortunate thing was that the white-robed man didn’t know about the Purple Spirit within Billy.
If the white-robed man had reinforced a spatial cage around Billy, even if Purple Spirit could emerge from Billy’s body, it would have been futile.
When his powers were sealed, Billy knew it had to be someone from the Norton family, striking when he was at his weakest.
So, he immediately informed Purple Spirit to notify everyone and use the Array Talisman to leave the scene.
Luckily, everything went smoothly; otherwise, today’s outcome would have been disastrous.
About half an hour later, they landed in a valley deep within the forest.
“Purple Spirit, can you hide all our auras?” Billy asked Purple Spirit.
He knew that the array could only trap the enemy for half an hour. Once the time was up, the array would automatically disappear.
By then, with the spiritual power of the white-robed man and Perry Norton, finding them wouldn’t be too difficult.
If they were found before his powers recovered, the consequences would be dire!
Earlier, because the enemy didn’t know they had an Array Talisman, they hadn’t aimed to kill initially. If it happened again, the enemy wouldn’t be so merciful.
“Yes!” Purple Spirit nodded. “But it might not last long.”
She had been injured by the white-robed man earlier and was already hurt.
“Can you manage for half an hour?” Billy asked.
“I can try!” Purple Spirit responded.
“Good!” Billy then looked at everyone. “Take your healing pills and start treating your injuries. Ivy and Stout, help stabilize Judge and Soul Chaser’s conditions!”
Judge, Soul Chaser, and Alex Long were in bad shape, their faces pale and their breaths weak.
“Got it!” Everyone nodded simultaneously.
“Billy, do you need my help?” Purple Spirit asked Billy.
“No need. The enemy’s sealing technique is unique; your help wouldn’t be much use!” Billy shook his head. “Just hide our auras.”
“Alright!” Purple Spirit nodded.
As she spoke, an aura spread from her body, enveloping half of the valley.
Billy then found a large rock several hundred meters away from everyone and sat down cross-legged.
The energies that the white-robed man had injected into him were very domineering; he couldn’t mobilize any Chi power. Forcing open the seal with his powers was unrealistic.
However, he had his bloodline power!
The enemy could seal his powers but couldn’t seal his bloodline!
His bloodline was innate, a part of his body. As long as he was alive, he could activate his bloodline power!
Taking a deep breath, Billy closed his eyes and began to use his bloodline power to unseal the energies.
Meanwhile, Ivy and Stout took healing pills and started helping Judge and the others.
Their injuries weren’t light either but were better compared to Judge and the others.
Time passed quickly; in the blink of an eye, forty to fifty minutes had gone by.
“Billy, how much longer do you need?” Purple Spirit asked Billy.
“I can sense strong spiritual power scanning nearby. It’s likely those two old men are coming.”
“Give me a few more minutes!” Billy said with his eyes closed.
“Alright!” Purple Spirit responded.
About five minutes later, an aura containing immense energy burst from Billy’s body. The rock beneath him and the surrounding trees instantly turned to dust.
From this aura alone, it was clear that his power had increased several levels compared to before.
“Billy, have you broken through to the second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm?” Purple Spirit asked excitedly.
“Yes!” Billy stood up, his energy fully restored.
As Purple Spirit had said, with the help of his bloodline power, he not only neutralized the energies from the white-robed man but also broke through to the Perfection Emptiness Realm!
Withstanding those two Thunder Tribulations had elevated his cultivation by two levels!
“That’s great!” Azure Dragon and White Tiger were overjoyed.
At that moment, a terrifying pressure swept over from not far away, enveloping the entire valley.
“Finally found you!” Perry Norton’s voice echoed.
“Purple Spirit, watch over everyone!” Billy said to Purple Spirit before rising into the air.
In mid-air, he saw a group approaching the valley. Leading them were Perry Norton and the white-robed man, followed by seven or eight others.
Of the thirty people Perry Norton had led earlier, only these few Perfection Emptiness Realm individuals remained; the others had either died at Perry Norton’s hands or were killed by arrows within the array.
“You surprised me by recovering so quickly…” The white-robed man sensed Billy’s aura change and spoke in astonishment.
Before he could finish speaking, Billy flipped his wrist, sending a blade light tearing through the air.
In his fury, he wasn’t about to waste words with the enemy.
“Dodge quickly!” The white-robed man’s pupils contracted as he swiftly retreated several hundred meters.
Sensing danger, Perry Norton and the others quickly dodged aside without hesitation.
After the blade light passed, the white-robed man and four others paused mid-air before splitting in two and falling down in a bloody mess.
With his bloodline power activated, Billy’s cultivation had reached fourth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm. A single Phantom Blade Technique was beyond what the white-robed man could withstand!
“What?!” Perry Norton was shocked and fled backward. The others scattered in all directions as well.
But they were deluding themselves if they thought Billy would let them escape alive at this point.
After slashing down four men with Heavenly Fury Slash, Billy chased after Perry Norton.
“Don’t kill me…” Perry Norton screamed for mercy as he fled for his life.
Before he could finish speaking, a blade light flashed by. His head flew into the air as blood spurted like a fountain.
In his final moment of life, regret filled Perry Norton’s heart. He should have killed Billy immediately before dealing with anyone else. But now it was too late for regrets!
“Boss, Judge and Soul Chaser’s injuries have stabilized. It’s up to you now,” Stout’s voice reached Billy’s ears.
Without tending to his own injuries, Billy rushed towards the bodies of the white-robed man and Perry Norton. His target was their storage rings-such powerful individuals must have valuable items inside!
Soon after, Billy landed in the valley and began treating everyone’s injuries. The process took about two hours; their conditions stabilized but full recovery would take more time.
“Purple Spirit, watch over everyone!” Billy said to Purple Spirit afterward.
“Boss, where are you going?” Black Tortoise asked.
“The Norton family!” A sharp glint flashed in Billy’s eyes.
