"Come back!" Billy spoke sternly.
"Boss..." Judge turned to look at Billy.
"What's the rush? Sit down!" Billy interrupted him. "Let's see what they're up to first!"
He knew that the other side was intentionally stalling, but he wasn't entirely sure of their motives.
"Understood!" Judge and Stout replied and sat down again.
Time passed quickly, and an hour had passed in the blink of an eye. The elder from the Crimson Sun Sect had not appeared again, and Billy and his team's patience was wearing thin.
"These Crimson Sun Sect people are really looking for trouble. I want to see what their young Sect Master is doing!" Soul Chaser furrowed his brows and walked towards the stone stairs.
"Stop, what are you trying to do?" A disciple of the Crimson Sun Sect raised his hand and shouted loudly.
"Get lost!" Soul Chaser roared and struck out with his hand.
"You..." The man's pupils shrank as he tried to block Soul Chaser's attack with his hand.
Bang!
As a muffled sound rang out, the man was sent flying, crashing into the stone stairs behind, blood spurting.
"You scoundrel!" An elder from the Crimson Sun Sect said coldly and launched a punch towards Soul Chaser.
"Old bastard, I've been waiting for you to make a move!" Soul Chaser's wrist flicked, and he drew his curved blade, sending a sharp crescent blade energy towards his opponent.
Their attacks clashed, and both of them retreated seven or eight steps, evenly matched.
"Hmm?" The elder stabilized himself, his pupils slightly narrowed. He was a War Grandmaster at the lower stage, one level higher than Soul Chaser. He had expected to easily defeat his opponent, but he was surprised to find himself evenly matched.
"Come again!" Soul Chaser was full of anger and wanted to take it out on someone.
"This is the Crimson Sun Sect, not your SHADOW. You'd better not be too arrogant, or don't blame us for not showing courtesy!" The elder said coldly.
"Then let me see how you don't show courtesy!" Soul Chaser said with a deep voice and raised his blade to charge again.
"Soul Chaser, come back!" Billy's voice rang out.
"Boss, they're deliberately embarrassing us. Let me take care of them, and see if their young Sect Master dares to come out..." Soul Chaser replied loudly.
"Come back!" Billy's tone grew stern.
"Soul Chaser, don't anger Boss. Come back!" Frostblade frowned.
"Fine..." Soul Chaser reluctantly returned.
"Boss, waiting like this may not be a solution." Night Orchid said, looking at Billy.
"Hmm." Billy narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.
At that moment, Michael's phone rang.
"What's up?" Michael answered the call. After a brief conversation, his brows furrowed.
"I understand. Stay safe." Michael said before ending the call. He looked at Billy and spoke, "Commander, Nigel just called and said that a group of unfamiliar faces went to his hometown, that small mountain village."
"As expected." Billy's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Boss, Azure Fang's situation is likely related to what's happening with Arthur Fowler and Bessie Charleston." Night Orchid said after a moment of thought.
"Hmm." Billy nodded.
The developments seemed to confirm his suspicions.
