"Boss, did you really break through three levels in one go?" Stout wore an exaggerated expression.
Casey and Azure Dragon also showed a hint of excitement on their faces.
"Yeah!" Billy nodded with a smile.
The three of them collectively took a sharp breath. Although they were mentally prepared, confirmation of the breakthrough still excited them immensely.
"Great! From now on, if those small fries in the ancient martial world dare to jump around, just level their sects!" Stout said with a grin, and then, as if recalling something, he added, "Oh, boss, I forgot to tell you something. I found out from my sister during a call yesterday that she also broke through a few days ago. She's now at the early stage of God-Emperor Realm!"
"Oh?" Billy raised an eyebrow. "Did the old man permit her breakthrough?"
Ivy Chandler's breakthrough to the early stage of War God-Emperor upon one attempt was already within his expectations. However, Billy didn't anticipate that Ivy would also achieve the breakthrough during this specific timeframe.
Stout nodded. "Yeah! According to my sister, it seems the ironclad rule of Ether Mountain will probably be lifted soon, so the old man allowed her to break through. If nothing unexpected happens, the old man will probably notify you in the next couple of days."
"Hmm." Billy nodded thoughtfully.
Looking at it from this perspective, the situation within the realm didn't seem optimistic.
A few minutes later, a somewhat urgent sound of footsteps echoed outside the base gate. Soon, a group of two hundred people walked in.
Leading the group was Aquilandia's Prime Minister, Caruno, walking side by side with Andra. Just from Andra's attitude, one could tell that he, who held a special status, didn't regard Caruno, the Prime Minister, highly. Behind them were a hundred people each. The ones behind Andra were dressed in the uniforms of Aquilandia's palace guards, each with a solemn expression and a powerful aura. Even the weakest among them was at the late stage of the Warlord Realm.
"Prime Minister!" Rukchi greeted Caruno as he stood up. Simultaneously, he glanced at Andra, feeling a bit puzzled.
Why did the Prime Minister bring Andra along? Were they here to seek peace or declare war?
"Lord Rukchi, sorry for the trouble." After addressing Rukchi, Caruno turned to Billy and bowed respectfully.
"I am Aquilandia's Prime Minister, Caruno, greetings, Commander Gardner!" He kept his posture low.
"Prime Minister, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Caruno's actions, Andra furrowed his brows.
"You are Aquilandia's Prime Minister, representing the face of Aquilandia. He's just a small supervisor in Glavale. What qualifications does he have to receive such respect from you?"
After hearing Andra's words, Caruno's brows slightly furrowed, but he remained silent.
Rukchi, feeling a shiver, quickly spoke up, "Lord Andra, why don't you greet Commander Gardner..."
He understood Billy Gardner's position in Glavale very well; how could you summarize him as just a regional supervisor?
"Lord Rukchi, it seems you're a bit confused. You want me to bow to him?" Andra interrupted, waving his hand. "Enough, rest aside and don't interrupt. I'll handle this matter!" After saying this, he turned to Billy, adopting a commanding tone.
"Are you King of the West, Commander Gardner from Glavale? Did you kill our people from Aquilandia?" Andra questioned.
