The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 179 Just One Slash

Chapter 179 Just One Slash

"Damn it!!!" Ethereal Scribe and the other man looked around, their faces filled with extreme sadness.

These guys were all of Ebon Gate's high-end combat power except for the two of them. Among them, there were over ten strong powerhouses, including a Warlord and three Half-Step Warlords. But they were all killed before the enemy commander even made a move.

Before they could figure out what had happened, one after another, figures appeared in their sight. It was Casey, "Five Sharp Knives" and a thousand SHADOW warriors.

"Commander!" When they arrived within 100 meters of Billy, everyone knelt down and shouted in unison, their voices deafening.

After detecting Casey's and the Five Sharp Knives' aura, Ethereal Scribe's pupils shrank coldly. He was facing a True Master Warlord, two Half-Step Warlords, a True Master Battle God and two Grand Elder Battle Gods.

Only then did they realize how useless their intelligence system was. Despair rose simultaneously in both of them. Everyone else could be ignored, but what they never expected was that there was another powerful True Master Warlord here besides Billy.

Originally, the two of them had planned to team up and take down Billy no matter how strong he was. But now, with this super-strong opponent present, it meant that they might not have even a shred of chance.

"Stand up!" Billy raised his hand.

"Thanks, Commander!" The crowd shouted again.

"So, the master of Ebon Gate, do you believe me now?" Billy continued to speak to Ethereal Scribe.

"You..." Ethereal Scribe opened his mouth and looked extremely gloomy.

"Oh right! There's one thing I forgot to tell you." Billy interrupted him. "If my estimation is correct, Ebon Gate headquarters should be under attack by now!"

"What!?" The vice-master of Ebon Gate exclaimed in shock.

"I'm sorry for not notifying you earlier." Said Billy calmly.

Ethereal Scribe let out a heavy sigh. At this moment, he truly regretted taking on this job. One wrong decision and he had destroyed the entire Ebon Gate himself.

"I admit that I underestimated your power," Ethereal Scribe took a deep breath and continued speaking to Billy. "Let's make a deal. Let us go, and we'll forget about the incident at Ebon Gate. We both swear to never set foot in Glavale again!"

"Do you think that's possible?" asked Billy.

"You two came all the way to Ozin to kill me, but now that you can't, you want to make peace? Your logic is as twisted."

"You don't have to let us go, but have you ever considered that, no one else here can stop us except for you and the other Warlord? And I estimate your strength is only slightly higher than mine or even equal." Ethereal Scribe took a deep breath before continuing. "So even if you manage to kill us in the end, I guarantee at least half of the people here will die! Are you planning on ignoring their lives?"

"Fool!" Casey and the others were speechless upon hearing this remark; they were truly impressed by Ethereal Scribe's confidence.

"You seem very confident in yourself," Billy said as he drew the Bloodshadow Fury Blade from his waist. He then took a few steps towards them and calmly said, "Come on then, let me show you what Glavale is capable of."

"Are you not going to let us go?" Ethereal Scribe's aura suddenly surged with powerful pressure emanating from him. The deputy head also released his own aura while tightly gripping his big knife with a serious expression on his face. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Go ahead then. If either of you can last three rounds against me, I'll let you leave," Billy replied sternly.

"Let's see just how strong the famous Commander Gardner really is!" Ethereal Scribe said in a deep voice. In the next moment, he shot out like a bullet, simultaneously unleashing several punches filled with earth-shattering energy. The sound of explosions echoed through the air.

The deputy master of Ebon Gate also made his move, rapidly rotating his wrists to create an incredibly powerful net of sword strikes that slashed towards Billy. Both men knew that their lives were on the line and didn't hold back in their attacks. For a moment, fierce winds blew and shockwaves rippled through the air as sword energy filled the sky.

At the same time, Billy moved too. He gripped the Bloodshadow Fury Blade tightly and darted forward at lightning speed. Then he swung his blade with incredible force and unleashed a blood- red sword beam that sliced through their opponents' attacks like butter before hurtling towards them with devastating power.

Ethereal Scribe's pupils shrank to pinprick size as every pore on his body opened up to absorb all available information about this new threat. A sense of intense danger permeated every cell in his

body.

It was only at this moment that both men realized just how foolish they had been to underestimate their opponent's strength. They had thought that this commander was a True Master Warlord, at best; while the fact was that he was powerhouse equal to a War Grandmaster. Moreover, he must have already reached the mid-late stage of cultivation.

The next moment, a head flew into the sky, with blood gushing out from the deputy gate master's neck, like a geyser. And, his body collapsed on the ground.

At the same time, Ethereal lost one of his arms, a tide of blood unleashed from the wound on his shoulder.

Casey and "Five Sharp Blades" simultaneously exclaimed in amazement, impressed by the battle power of Commander Gardner. Amidst the shock, a hint of joy appeared in the eyes of all five people at the same time.

From Billy's current fighting strength, they could see that his injuries had improved a lot. According to this situation, Commander Gardner who once stood at the pinnacle of martial arts would soon be back.

Spike Arnold on the side had an expression of disbelief on his face. Although he had heard of Commander Gardner's martial art long before, he never thought he would become so strong that even an advanced Warlord was like a mouse in his hands.

As Ethereal Scribe's heart was filled with waves of shock and despair, a glimmer of hope emerged. Perhaps Commander Gardner truly had the ability to avenge their former leader.

"Ah..." In the next moment, Ethereal Scribe let out a desperate scream, his face filled with endless horror.

With just one strike, they were left with one dead and one injured.

The King of the West, had been vastly underestimated by Place of Darkness.

Huffing for breath, Ethereal Scribe didn't have time to think as he quickly rushed towards the crowd nearby. For him, finding some hostages was his only way out - perhaps there was still a chance!
