Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“I understand!” Billy nodded again.

He knew very well that the forces of the fifth-tier star domain had their eyes on Great Green City not just because people from Yheng Institute had been lost, but also because he was in Great Green City.

Since the day he set foot in the mid-tier star domain, it had been about two months. Some ambitious forces in the fifth-tier star domain should have already taken action.

According to Maisy Cooper’s previous introduction, the fastest route from the fifth-tier star domain to the Great Green Star Domain would take just over a month.

So, by his calculations, there wasn’t much time left.

“Mr. Billy, the forces of the fifth-tier star domain are not on the same level as those of the Great Green Star Domain. They should not be underestimated!” Jimmy Acevedo continued.

“Yes!” Billy replied. “Jimmy, I’ll come up with a strategy for other matters. You just focus on stabilizing the Institute!”

“No problem!” Jimmy Acevedo nodded.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“I’ll head back to the City Lord’s Mansion. Contact me if anything comes up,” Billy added.

“Be careful!” Jimmy Acevedo nodded.

“Thank you for your concern, Jimmy!” Billy responded once more.

Then, he turned to greet other disciples of the Sword Sect and took Harleen and the others into the air.

The next morning, Billy was busy with Ivy at the City Lord’s Mansion, working on the Gathering Spirit Array when Gloria Russo arrived with several core members of the Russo family.

“Greetings, Mr. Billy!” The Russo family members bowed in unison upon seeing Billy.

“No need for formalities. Let’s talk inside.”

Billy glanced at the Russo family members and led them into a hall within one of the buildings.

“Thank you, Mr. Billy, for saving Siena’s life!”

The old master of the Russo family, Finnian Russo, cupped his hands toward Billy. He had heard about what happened on the street yesterday.

“It was nothing,” Billy responded lightly and then looked at Gloria Russo. “How did things go with what I mentioned yesterday?”

“Mr. Billy, it’s almost done!” Gloria Russo nodded.

“In Great Green City, besides Yheng Institute, there are ten top-ranking families and sects. Apart from the Osborn family, the Russo family, Array Alliance, and Heaven Cloud Sect, there are six other forces.”

“Among these six forces, one family and one sect were originally affiliated with the Russo family.”

“And from yesterday until this morning, one of those four remaining forces has already submitted to our Russo family. Two sects have been overthrown, and the last family has moved out of Great Green City.”

As she spoke, she felt a deep sense of awe.

Yesterday, when Billy asked her to discuss with her family whether they were willing to take over other forces in Great Green City, she wasn’t very confident.

After all, even without the Osborn family, Great Green City still had Array Alliance and Heaven Cloud Sect, both formidable forces.

Especially Array Alliance; their expertise in arrays made them superior even among forces of the same level.

However, she received news yesterday afternoon that both the leader of Array Alliance and the Sect Master of Heaven Cloud Sect had been killed by Billy!

She was stunned for a long time when she heard the news. She hadn’t expected Billy to have such audacity.

Heaven Cloud Sect could be dismissed, but Array Alliance was no ordinary force. Wasn’t Billy worried about retaliation after killing their leader?

“Well done!” Billy nodded and then looked at Finnian Russo. “Is your Russo family interested in moving into the City Lord’s Mansion?”

“Hmm?” Finnian Russo was visibly stunned by Billy’s words.

The other Russo family members also showed expressions of surprise.

Yesterday, when Gloria Russo relayed Billy’s words to her family, they knew it was a great opportunity for them.

They expected that from then on, they could be tied to Blade and Sword Sect.

Blade and Sword Sect had strong Perfection Emptiness Realm experts!

With them as backing, the Russo family wouldn’t have to fear anyone in the Great Green Star Domain.

But they hadn’t expected Billy to offer them a chance to move directly into the City Lord’s Mansion so quickly!

“Thank you for your great kindness, Mr. Billy!” Finnian Russo steadied his emotions and looked at Billy.

“But I’m afraid our Russo family’s strength might not be enough for such a responsibility…”

“Just tell me if you’re willing or not!” Billy interrupted him.

“Mr. Billy, this is a tremendous opportunity for our Russo family. Of course, we are willing!” Finnian Russo replied.

“Good!” Billy responded. “I’ll handle the rest.”

“In my estimation, forces from the fifth-tier star domain will arrive within a month. Until then, don’t come to the City Lord’s Mansion.”

“Use this month to reorganize Great Green City. If you encounter any problems, come to me anytime!”

“Mr. Billy, how do you know forces from the fifth-tier star domain will come to Great Green City within a month?” asked a man from the Russo family.

“Is that hard to understand?” Billy replied calmly.

“The rulers of Great Green Star Domain are gone. Such a large piece of territory is very tempting for some forces in the fifth-tier star domain!”

“Moreover, I’m in Great Green City; they will naturally come!”

“I see,” the man nodded.

“Mr. Billy, if forces from the fifth-tier star domain come, their strength might surpass Yheng Institute. Do you have a plan?” asked the head of the Russo family.

“Not yet,” Billy replied straightforwardly.

“Then…” The head of the Russo family hesitated.

“You don’t need to worry about that. I’ll handle it!” Billy said again. “You just focus on reorganizing Great Green City!”

“Understood!” The head of the Russo family nodded.

Then, with a flick of his finger, Billy sent a storage ring to Finnian Russo.

“This contains five low-grade Spirit Essence Pills with 95% purity and five high-grade Shadow Beast cores as a small gift.”

The Russo family members were once again astonished.

They had heard of low-grade Spirit Essence Pills but never ones with 95% purity!

And high-grade Shadow Beast cores were extremely precious even in Great Green City!

“Mr. Billy, these items are too valuable…” Finnian Russo took a deep breath before responding.

“Take them!” Billy interrupted him. “You have one month to elevate your family’s strength!”

“In that case, thank you very much, Mr. Billy!” Finnian Russo gratefully accepted them without further hesitation.

Fifteen minutes later, after giving more instructions, Billy saw off the Russo family members.

For the next two days, Billy and Ivy worked on setting up a Gathering Spirit Array at the City Lord’s Mansion.

Afterward, everyone, including Billy, entered the Gathering Spirit Array to begin their cultivation.
