The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 506

Chapter 506 Hand over the Jade Pendant, Exchange for a Life

"Don't be too polite, Mrs Charleston!" Adam raised his hand and asked, "Are you sure he's from Cerulean Abyss Institute?"

"Most likely!" Bessie nodded solemnly. "It's intriguing." Adam furrowed his brows slightly and said, "I've heard that Ink Pavilion is not as simple as it seems, and it appears to be true."

Meanwhile, Billy and Arthur, upon hearing the words "Cerulean Abyss Institute", had a slight change in their expressions. They hadn't expected their opponents to come from that institute.

Cerulean Abyss Institute, a thousand-year-old martial sect, was one of the prominent superpowers in Glavale's martial world. The institute recruited disciples openly and had produced many martial geniuses, far surpassing those of other top powers.

"Ink Pavilion has been causing trouble in Glavale for over a thousand years, and it turns out that it's you who's behind it, Cerulean Abyss Institute." Adam spoke up again.

"Although you are from Ether Mountain, it's best not to speak recklessly about such matters without understanding them. Cerulean Abyss Institute cannot bear such accusations." The old man replied calmly. Afterward, he turned to Quillan and said, "Quillan, let's go."

"Sure," Quillan replied, his face pale.

"Lord Greenleaf, the master of Ink Pavilion has a Five-Element Jade Pendant, make him hand it over before he leaves." Arthur turned to Adam and said.

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Adam's eyes lit up. "Are you sure?"

Billy, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow. Although he had seen one of the pendants when he was in the capital a few days ago, he hadn't expected Quillan to have one with him.

"Yes," Arthur nodded. "He showed it to me earlier, and I'm sure it's a Five-Element Jade Pendant."

"Very well," Adam nodded vigorously and turned to Quillan. "Hand over the pendant, and we'll spare your life."

"You're quite presumptuous!" The old man's eyes narrowed, and a surge of power emanated from him.

"If you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish!" Adam retorted coldly, then turned to Billy. "Young Master, keep an eye on the Ink Pavilion Master, don't let him escape."

"Don't worry, Uncle Adam, he won't get away." Billy said with a faint smile.

"Good!" Adam replied, and his aura burst forth like a mountain torrent as he drew his ancient sword and launched an attack.

"Quillan, run!" the old man called out, then faced Adam's attack.

The two of them immediately engaged in a fierce battle, with their figures flashing and waves of energy surging. The area within a radius of several hundred meters was filled with an overwhelming sense of murderous intent. Their cultivation levels were evenly matched, making it difficult to determine a winner in the short term.

At the moment Adam and the old man clashed, Quillan swiftly darted to the side.

"Can you escape?" Billy spoke with a grim tone, drawing his Bloodshadow Fury Blade from the ground and chasing after Quillan.

By now, Quillan's teleportation ability had been greatly impaired, and he had only run a few hundred meters before being intercepted by Billy.

"King of the W est, don't push your luck." Quillan said to Billy with a cold voice.

"If you had agreed to Uncle Adam's offer to exchange the pendant for your life, you might have had a chance to survive, but you didn't appreciate it." Billy interrupted him.

"This jade pendant..." Quillan, of course, wasn't willing to part with it so easily.

"Your life or the jade pendant, choose one!" the old man's tone grew slightly colder.

Quillan let out a heavy sigh.

Life or the jade pendant, he knew how to make that choice. Reluctantly, he pulled the jade pendant out of his pocket and tossed it to Billy. While doing so, he said coldly, "King of the West, you'd better keep that jade pendant safe. Otherwise, when I come to get it next time and you can't produce it, you'll have to pay with your life!"

"Next time, I'll take your life!" Billy retorted as he caught the jade pendant and replied indifferently. He knew very well that today, he probably wouldn't be able to kill Quillan. Although the old man in the shadows didn't have any murderous intent toward them, it was clear from their conversation that it wouldn't be realistic for Billy to try to kill Quillan.

As Billy spoke, he looked at the jade pendant in his hand. It was exactly the same as the three he already had, except for a slight difference in the color of the dragon's head.

"Humph! We'll see. Elder Turner, let's go!" said Quillan.

"Sure," Elder Turner walked a few steps, picked up his severed arm, and looked at Adam, "The debt of the severed arm will be repaid in the future."

With that, they both fled into the nearby woods.

Soon, the old man in the shadows also turned and left, and the oppressive aura that had enveloped the area dissipated.

As for the fate of the other people present, it was clear that it was no longer a concern for the three of them, and they had no expectations that Billy would spare anyone.
