Chapter 437 Setback of Twenty Years

"Hmm!" Billy squinted his eyes. "Spread the order, two hundred thousand Bloodshadow Guards to engage, kill anyone who resists!" "Yes, Commander!" Walter Hunter saluted in response.

"In addition, inform the original Southern Border troops to stay in place. They are not to engage unless I give the order." Billy continued.

Billy's intention was to minimize unnecessary casualties by keeping the original Southern Border troops from participating. He was confident that with the strength of the Army of Bloodshadow, the two hundred thousand Bloodshadow Guards could handle the eighty thousand soldiers of Nanrania without much trouble.

"Understood!" Walter Hunter responded loudly and then quickly headed towards the nearby camp.

As the orders from both sides' top commanders were issued, the border area spanning hundreds of kilometers between the two nations plunged into a chaotic battle. Numerous soldiers moved simultaneously, causing the earth to shake and the air to tremble. In no time, cries and roars echoed in the half-empty sky, as corpses piled up, and blood flowed like rivers.

Upon receiving word of the large-scale conflict, several neighboring countries dispatched envoys to find out what had caused such a massive upheaval between the two nations. Such a large-scale military confrontation hadn't been seen for decades.

"I've long heard that Commander Gardner from Glavale is a genius of the millennium. Today, I have the privilege of meeting you and have come to learn. Please enlighten me!"

Outside the nation's gates, Clifford Maldonado shouted loudly angrily, then gripped his large blade and charged toward Billy.

"I'm sorry, but you don't even have the qualification to challenge him!" Casey's solemn voice stopped Clifford's assault.

"Get out of the way!" Clifford shouted angrily, slashing his large blade.

"Boss, shall we kill him?" Casey casually blocked the opponent's blade with a raised hand and then looked at Billy for guidance.

"Disabling him will suffice. There are some things I want to ask him." Billy remained motionless, his eyes narrowing as he focused on a position not far behind Clifford.

At that spot, three individuals with the aura of Mid-War Emperor level were approaching. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Understood!" Casey responded, raising his blade to confront Clifford.

"If you wish for death, I shall grant it!" Clifford yelled, channeling his full strength in his attack against Casey.

"Clifford, you are not his match, retreat!" An elder's voice sounded simultaneously, and it was one of the three whose auras Billy had been monitoring.

However, his warning came half a beat too late. Before the words had even left his lips, a blade aura had flashed past Clifford's shoulder, followed by his arm, holding his large blade, flying into the air, blood spewing everywhere.

"Ah..." Clifford let out a painful cry.

Whoosh!

But that was not the end of it. Casey struck again, this time slashing Clifford's arm and causing more gruesome wounds.

"How dare you!" Elder Thornen at the War Emperor level roared. At the same time, he raised his hand and unleashed a wave of Chi that seemed like it could overturn mountains and seas, surging towards Casey.

However, he had clearly overestimated himself. Since the moment Billy had set his sights on him, his fate had been sealed. His attack had just reached halfway when a blood-red blade aura descended from the sky, slicing down directly above his head.

"No..." Sensing a chilling aura of death, the old man's soul cried out.

Swoosh!

As the blade aura descended, a bloodline extended from his forehead down his body, splitting him in half and leaving him paralyzed. "Fourth Elder!" the other two elders cried out in pain.

"Ah..." At the same time, Clifford screamed again, with more than ten bloody wounds on his body from Casey's attack, a horrifying sight.

Meanwhile, in the other part of the battlefield, the ten thousand elite soldiers of Nanrania, under the assault of Azure Dragon and four hundred Bloodshadow Guards, had already lost over half of their number. Most of these so-called elite soldiers had at most reached the level of Battle God or Battle General, and even without the participation of Azure Dragon's group, they wouldn't have been a match for the Bloodshadow Guards.

The entire street was filled with severed limbs, and a river of blood flowed. It looked like a small-scale hell. The remaining two to three thousand soldiers, upon seeing the countless corpses, lost all will to fight and retreated several hundred meters within Nanrania's border.

"Kill them!" Azure Dragon had no intention of letting them go easily, and he continued the assault, his voice stern. He brandished his war blade and charged forward.

Black Tortoise and the others didn't hesitate either, leading the Bloodshadow Guards to follow suit. In the blink of an eye, dozens of soldiers fell again, lying motionless on the ground.

"Run!" The two to three thousand soldiers scattered in all directions, no longer organized as a unit.

"You Glavale people deserve to die!" The two War Elders from Nanrania were furious, their eyes bloodshot and faces distorted.

"You two old fools, do you think we should just stand here and let your people slaughter us?" Casey replied coldly. After a brief pause, he continued, "Don't you like war? Today, we'll grant your wish!" "Commander Gardner, are you going to take things this far?" the Second Elder from Nanrania took a deep breath and glared at Billy with anger.

"This is something you should ask your nation's leader!" Billy responded coldly.

"Your eighty thousand troops are at our Glavale border, and now you come here to ask if I'm taking things too far? Don't you find that ridiculous?"

"Why did we take such action? You should know better than anyone!" The Second Elder exhaled heavily. "Do you think I don't know? You intentionally had your subordinates kill one of our commanders, provoking Clifford Maldonado to issue orders to attack, giving you a reason to deploy troops!"

"Congratulations, you got it right!" Billy smiled faintly. With a change in tone, he continued, "You're right, I deliberately provoked you to start this war! If you don't agree with it, you can report to your nation's leader and have all your forces from Nanrania sent here. Glavale will be more than happy to oblige!"

"You..." The old man was furious.

"Do you know why, among the many nations on our Glavale southern border, I singled out Nanrania?" Billy interrupted the man's words. "Because you are the biggest ingrate! Without Glavale, Nanrania would be at least twenty years behind where it is now. You've attached yourselves to the Western powers, grown wings, and now want to provoke Glavale? Today, I will show you that Glavale has the ability to help you advance twenty years, and also the ability to set you back twenty years!"

"You've gone too far! Let's fight!" Elder Thornen roared once more.

Although he had a faint feeling that he might not be Billy's match, he was very aware that even if the two of them surrendered now, Billy would not spare their lives. In that case, he might as well make a desperate attempt.

As he spoke, his aura skyrocketed rapidly, and he raised his hand to unleash waves of extremely violent Chi, howling through the air.

The other Nanrania War Department's third elder didn't hesitate either, activating his most powerful strength and following suit. Both of them were at the pinnacle of the War Emperor realm.

With their actions, this entire space was immediately shrouded in a boundless and terrifying pressure, filled with an overwhelming aura of killing intent.
