The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 424 The God-Emperor Power

Following Billy's slash, he took several large steps forward, and the Bloodshadow Fury Blade unleashed another blade beam. The two forces clashed, creating a shockwave that flattened the surroundings. Two buildings crumbled to the ground in the aftermath.

At the same time, Billy quickly retreated about ten meters, causing the concrete ground beneath his feet to crack. Stabilizing himself, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura slightly in disarray. "Boss!" Casey and the others called out simultaneously.

"I'm fine, don't come over!" Billy replied sternly, his gaze fixed on the figure that had just approached from a hundred meters away.

This newcomer, dressed in a black robe and wearing a skull mask, was undoubtedly from the Sanctum of Darkness headquarters.

"You're truly damned! You killed thousands of members of my First Division!" The newcomer glanced around the courtyard and then turned a cold gaze toward Billy.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Old scoundrel, as a War God-Emperor, you dare to act so recklessly. Do you find life boring?" White Tiger angrily shouted.

"Humph!" The old man snorted. "Today, even with a Rule Protector present, I will kill all of you!"

"Do you have that much confidence?" Billy adjusted his breath slightly and suppressed the surging blood within him.

"You must be Commander Gardner from Glavale, right?" The old man's eyes were like blades as he stared at Billy. "Today, I will make you wish you were dead!"

"Do you think you can kill me?" Billy narrowed his eyes.

"Humph! You are so ignorant!" The old man scoffed. "Do you think that just because you can contend with War God-Emperor level fighters, you can challenge a true War God-Emperor? If you have such thoughts, it only shows your ignorance. You don't understand the difference between a true War God-Emperor and a Half-Step one!"

"Is that so?" Billy replied coldly. "Then let's put it to the test!"

"Boss!" Casey and the others called out again, their expressions filled with concern.

"Stay a kilometer away!" Billy instructed.

"Boss, don't engage in a direct confrontation with him. Delay him for a few minutes, and a Rule Protector will likely arrive!" White Tiger shouted loudly.

"Retreat!" Billy repeated. He didn't want to rely on others to deal with the person he wanted to kill.

"Understood!" Casey and the others knew Billy well. He was preparing to go all out.

"You are truly arrogant to the extreme! Very well, I will show you what true War God-Emperor Realm power is!" The old man was determined to act and didn't want to waste any more time. With a thunderous roar, his aura erupted, shaking the surroundings.

Even though Casey and the others were a kilometer away, they could still sense the oppressive pressure. This was the strength of a true War God-Emperor, far surpassing the one they had encountered earlier In the next moment, the old man's fists moved, leaving countless afterimages in the air. Above his head, a massive battle-axe formed, surrounded by thunder and exuding a deathly aura.

"Die!" With a deep voice, he forcefully pushed his fists forward, and the gigantic battle-axe descended upon Billy like a thunderstorm.

At the same time, Billy also made his move. The Bloodshadow Fury Blade turned entirely blood-red, as if it had just been pulled out of a pool of blood. Shortly after, the air around him surged, and his wrist kept flipping, creating several blood-red blade beams, each tens of meters long. In no time, these blade beams merged and formed a virtual Bloodshadow Blade, several times larger than the physical one in his hand.

The virtual Bloodshadow Blade created a fierce gust of wind as it struck towards the old man's descending battle-axe.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion rang out, and the shockwave swept through the area, reducing everything within a kilometer to rubble. After the explosion, both Billy and the old man simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood, sliding back about fifty meters before regaining their footing. Then, both of them ceased their attacks, and the scene fell into a heavy silence.

"Boss!"

Casey and the others hurriedly ran over, their faces filled with concern. Billy spat out another mouthful of blood. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at his companions. "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Meanwhile, not far away, the old man dropped to one knee, blood continuously flowing from his mouth. His aura had visibly weakened.

"You... You actually condensed the God-Emperor power?" After taking a moment to catch his breath, he looked at Billy in disbelief, his face full of shock, just like the burly man from earlier.

"Do you still want to kill me?" Billy wiped away the blood from his mouth and asked coldly.

The old man let out a heavy sigh, trying to suppress the surging blood within him, and then slowly stood up.

"I admit that you're strong, and you've indeed injured me, but even if I want to leave, with your current condition, you can't stop me." The old man spoke with a resigned tone and quickly darted to the side.

He was just trying to console

himself with those words. In the last exchange, Billy had already inflicted heavy injuries on him, leaving him with less than a third of his fighting strength. At this moment, he was in no condition to challenge Billy, let alone someone like Casey. However, being a War God-Emperor, he couldn't afford to look too pathetic even if he wanted to escape. He had

to at least save some face for

himself.

"Is that so?" Billy sneered. His blade surged forth like a flash of lightning, slashing towards the old man.

"No, please..." The old man abandoned any pretense of saving face and screamed, desperately trying to dodge to the side. However, in his current state, there was no way he could evade such a fierce blade strike. He had barely taken two steps when the blade descended, coming within a meter of his head.

Just then, a raging force rushed in from the side, instantly shattering Billy's blade strike into nothingness.

"Hmm?" Billy furrowed his brow.

"Commander Gardner, he's already severely wounded by you, spare his life!" a man's voice rang out, though the speaker remained hidden.

"Is this how you uphold the rules?"

Billy's eyes narrowed. He sensed an

immensely powerful martial aura emanating from the unseen person, undoubtedly at least in the

mid-stage of War God-Emperor. On the other hand, he also detected no hostility towards him from this individual, leading him to believe that this person was likely the Rule

Protector as White Tiger had mentioned.

Upon hearing Billy's words, White Tiger called out to the figure in front.

"Since you claim to be a guardian of the rules, when that old coot from Sanctum of Darkness attacked Commander Gardner, not only did you not intervene, but now you want to spare his life?"
