Chapter 324 Piers Riley's Desperation

As Piers Riley's words fell, Billy and Frostblade, leading the core members of SHADOW, approached the central square.

"Frostblade!" Upon seeing Frostblade, Eleanor Lawson called out, a glimmer of hope appearing on her previously despairing face. Herman Lawson, upon seeing Frostblade and the SHADOW members, also held a glimmer of hope in his eyes. SHADOW's involvement in the situation might be the chance they needed to survive. Frostblade nodded slightly at Eleanor before turning her gaze to Piers Riley. "You Riley clan members are truly impatient."

"Frostblade, this is a matter between the Rileys and the Lawsons. It's best if SHADOW doesn't get involved!" Piers Riley took a deep breath and spoke.

He hadn't expected SHADOW's presence. Although they weren't afraid of SHADOW in Earthford, they didn't want to engage in a direct conflict if they could avoid it. After all, SHADOW wasn't limited to just Earthford; they had a vast number of members, and provoking them would lead to severe consequences. Moreover, there was a particular figure in SHADOW whom Piers Riley absolutely dreaded.

"Boss, he's Piers Riley, the third-ranking member of the Riley clan." Frostblade introduced Billy.

"Is that so?" Billy squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Piers Riley, saying, "You dare to infiltrate your people into SHADOW. Your courage is quite something."

Piers Riley's heart twisted upon hearing Billy's words, and it was evident that Tan Green had been exposed.

"Is the destruction of the Dittman clan the work of you?" Billy continued, "And the attack on the SHADOW members, including Ebony Lord, is also your doing?" "Who the hell are you? Do you have the right to speak here? You..." A guest officer from the Riley clan raised his hand, pointing at Billy, and spoke loudly. Before he could finish his sentence, a blade's radiance streaked through, leaving behind a blood-red line across his chest. Blood gushed out immediately. .." The man lowered his head to look at the bloody wound on his chest but couldn't utter a word before collapsing, his legs giving way beneath him. "Don't go too far, Frostblade! I..." Piers Riley angrily protested.

"I haven't heard your answer to my earlier question." Billy interrupted him.

"I... I don't know what you're talking about..." Piers took another deep breath.

Billy mentioned two matters, and he didn't dare admit to either of them, especially the second one. Assassinating a SHADOW member was an absolute crime, and if SHADOW took it seriously, the entire Riley clan would likely be wiped out.

"Where is the person who attacked Ebony Lord?" Billy continued, "Tell me, and I might spare your life for now."

Billy had already scanned everyone's martial prowess at the scene. The most powerful individual was the elderly man next to Piers Riley, with Warlord Grand Completion strength. However, even he was only half a level above Ebony Lord, he unlikely have inflicted the serious injuries on him.

"Who are you?" Piers Riley frowned, unable to detect any martial aura from Billy. However, he felt a growing sense of unease.

"I'll ask one last time," Billy said with a narrowed gaze, "Where is the person?"

"Are you going to make enemies of the Riley clan?" Piers Riley's unease was growing stronger.

"Are you unwilling to talk?" Billy's tone turned cold. "Execute him!"

Frostblade responded in a low voice and swiftly slashed with her blade.

A cold radiance flashed, and in an instant, she reached Piers Riley.

"Mr Riley, be careful!" An elderly man who was a Warlord hurriedly raised his hand and sent a powerful gust of wind to intercept Frostblade's blade.

Boom!

Their attacks collided, and both sides stepped back five or six steps, evenly matched in a single move. Although Frostblade was one rank lower than her opponent, she had already reached the Warlord late- stage, and with the assistance of her Cold Moon Curved Blade, she could hold her own against her opponent without any surprises.

"You... you must want to die!" Piers Riley, who had narrowly escaped death, shouted angrily. He had not expected Billy to actually dare to kill him; it was as if Billy didn't regard the Riley clan at all. "You're quite skilled, daring to attack a SHADOW Governor. Your life ends here!" Billy ignored Piers Riley and turned his gaze toward the elderly man.

"Damn it, this is your doing!" Piers Riley angrily shouted, "Forward! Kill them!"

For Piers Riley, he couldn't care too much anymore. As his life was threatened, if he didn't resist, he would die. As for the consequences of killing SHADOW's people, it was a matter of the future. "Yes, sir!" A group of people responded simultaneously and launched one after another.

"Looking for death! Kill all of them!" Frostblade ordered.

As the words fell, she had already rushed out.

Wally Hammond and others responded, pulling out the Cold Moon curved blades and quickly following her. In a blink of an eye, the men who were facing Frostblade immediately fell down, collapsed on the ground and twitched a few times before becoming motionless.

"Damn you!" The elderly Warlord furrowed his brows before swiftly charging towards Frostblade.

"Elder Fields, if you want your grandson to stay safe, you better kill Frostblade right now!" Piers Riley spoke up, looking at the senior elder from the Lawson family.

"This is not within the terms we agreed upon!" Tad Fields's brows furrowed deeply.

"If you don't act, by the end of today, I'll be collecting your grandson's corpse!" Piers Riley coldly retorted.

"You're a damn troublemaker!" Tad Fields took a deep breath and said, "I hope this is your last demand, or even if it costs me my life, I'll kill you first!"

After saying this, he followed the elderly Warlord and charged forward.

"Frostblade, be careful!" Seeing two powerful individuals closing in on Frostblade, Eleanor Lawson cried out in alarm.

Before her words could fully register, there was a muffled sound, and suddenly, the body of the elderly member of the Riley clan exploded, leaving nothing but a mist of blood in the air.

A collective gasp filled the surroundings, and everyone turned to look at Billy with expressions of utter shock.

Tad Fields, who had just started running, felt his legs go weak, nearly collapsing, and cold sweat covered his body.

"How... how is this possible?" Piers Riley stared in horror at the scene, trembling uncontrollably, his face turning as white as a sheet. It was only now that he seemed to have guessed Billy's identity.

The power to reduce a Warlord-level expert to nothing with a single palm strike was undoubtedly at least the strength of a mid-level War Grandmaster. And in all of SHADOW, aside from that man, who else could possess such power!?
