Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“Greetings, Elder Xavier, greetings, Dean!” Billy quickly walked up to Elder Xavier and bowed.

Harleen and Ivy also bowed in greeting.

As Billy spoke, he roughly assessed the martial aura of Elder Xavier and Spencer Bailey, feeling slightly surprised.

After more than a year, Elder Xavier had already broken through to the late stage of the Perceiving Dao Realm, and Spencer Bailey was not far behind, having reached the third rank of the Perceiving Dao Realm.

It was clear that while he was progressing, others were not standing still either.

“Hahaha…” Elder Xavier laughed heartily, raising his hand. “Why so formal? Come inside and sit!”

With that, he led everyone into a meeting hall.

“Billy Boy, I can’t sense your martial cultivation at all. If I’m not mistaken, you all should be at the Heaven Dao Realm by now?” After everyone was seated, Elder Xavier looked at Billy.

“Yes, Elder Xavier, we were fortunate enough not to disappoint your expectations,” Billy replied with a smile.

Hearing his words, everyone from the Institute, including Spencer Bailey, gasped in astonishment.

When Billy and his group left Canyon View City, their highest cultivation was only at the early stage of the Otherworldly Realm!

In less than two years, they had broken through three major realms?!

Unbelievable!

“You really are a genius!” Elder Xavier couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Elder Xavier flatters me!” Billy responded with a smile. “Without the Cracked Sky Blade Technique and Five Elements Blade Dance, we might not have had the chance to return today.”

“I’m very interested in your experiences over the past two years. Would you mind sharing them?” Elder Xavier continued.

“Elder Xavier, let me tell it!” Harleen said with a smile.

She then recounted the major events that had occurred since they left Canyon View City.

“I didn’t expect you to go through so much!” Spencer Bailey couldn’t help but exclaim after hearing Harleen’s account.

“Billy Boy, when do you plan to go to the mid-level star domain?” Elder Xavier asked.

“The barrier at Star Domain Chasm won’t hold for long, probably around four to five months,” Billy replied.

“I didn’t expect the mid-level star domain to covet our low-level west domain. It’s truly survival of the fittest!” Spencer Bailey remarked again.

“Dean, Great Blue Institute has started recruiting students. I’ve made arrangements there; you can send some Institute disciples to study at Great Blue Institute,” Billy said to Spencer Bailey.

“Thank you so much!” Spencer Bailey’s face lit up with joy.

“No need to thank me. Harleen and I are also members of Canyon View Institute; it’s our duty,” Billy responded with a smile.

“Haha, indeed. You are the next dean appointed by the Ancestor!” Elder Xavier laughed as well.

Billy felt a bit embarrassed.

Back then, the first dean of Canyon View Institute had left a soul imprint appointing him as the next dean. He had agreed at the time.

But since leaving Canyon View City last time, he hadn’t shown his face again. He felt unworthy of the title of prospective dean.

They stayed at Canyon View Institute for three full days.

Besides playing chess and chatting with Elder Xavier, Billy helped Spencer Bailey select a group of outstanding Institute disciples and took the opportunity to enhance their cultivation.

Among them were Beckett Baxter, Avery Francis, and Raul Duffy-three of the original Canyon View Four Talents.

Seeing Billy again, the three felt a mix of emotions.

When Billy first arrived at the Institute, they hadn’t taken him seriously at all.

Raul Duffy had even had significant conflicts with Billy. After several incidents, they had finally reconciled.

But in less than two years, Billy had grown to a height they could only look up to.

It proved once again that one should never underestimate anyone!

Life is unpredictable; you never know when someone you look down on might rise above you!

Early on the fourth day, Billy left two storage rings at the Institute before departing.

The storage rings contained ten Sky-Splitting Pills and a heap of cultivation resources, as well as several sets of Heaven Dao Realm techniques.

After leaving the Institute, they boarded their starship bound for Sky City.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Billy, are we going to accompany Aubree to Ethereal Sect first?”

Upon arriving in Sky City and disembarking from the starship, Harleen looked at Billy and asked.

“Yes,” Billy nodded in response.

He had initially thought his mother would be in Sky City, but during their journey, he learned through messages that she had recently left Sky City with Edie Fennimore and Elder Sol and returned to Glavale.

So he would have to wait until they returned to meet her.

“Mr. Billy, you don’t have to worry about me. I can go back by myself. You should hurry back to Glavale…” Aubree said.

“Staying here one more day is okay!” Billy smiled. “We haven’t seen Mr. Craft in a long time; we should visit him!”

He hadn’t forgotten how Jorge Craft had stood up for Skydragon City during its crisis with Holy Heaven Sect in Forbidden Ruins Space.

Moreover, if Jorge Craft hadn’t sent Aubree with Harleen and Ivy to Canyon View Institute back then, their fates would have been uncertain.

So now that they were in Sky City, it was only right to pay him a visit.

“Mr. Billy is considerate!” Aubree responded with a smile.

About ten minutes later, they arrived at the gate of Ethereal Sect’s main courtyard.

“Mr. Billy, please come in!” Seeing them arrive, Ethereal Sect’s Sect Master Jorge Craft quickly walked over with his entourage.

“Mr. Craft, long time no see!” Billy greeted him with a smile.

“Greetings, Sect Master!” Aubree bowed as she approached him.

She always remembered that she was part of Ethereal Sect. Even though her current strength far surpassed Jorge Craft’s, she still maintained her respect for him.

“Aubree, we’re all family here; no need to be so formal!” Jorge Craft responded with a smile.

They then moved into a hall where they sat down and conversed for three or four hours.

Jorge Craft detailed all the major and minor events that had occurred in Sky City and Forbidden Ruins Space over the past two years to Billy and his group.

Overall, there were no major incidents-just some minor sects causing occasional trouble.

With the combined strength of City Lord’s Mansion and Ethereal Sect, these issues were easily suppressed.

After Jorge Craft finished his account, Aubree briefly shared their experiences over the past two years with Ethereal Sect members, leaving them amazed.

After their conversation ended, Billy also left a storage ring for Jorge Craft, sufficient to cover Ethereal Sect’s expenses for a long time.

Billy then departed with Harleen and Casey while Aubree stayed behind at Ethereal Sect.

They bid farewell to Aubree reluctantly, especially Harleen and Ivy, who were moved to tears.

Aubree had given them a new lease on life; without her, they wouldn’t be where they were today.

In their minds, they already considered Aubree as their mother.

After leaving Ethereal Sect, they made no stops and headed straight back to Forbidden Ruins Space.
