. .
At Austin's command, all modes of attack activated in succession.
Each attack would kill one or two disciples from the Flaming Sun Valley.
The disciples at the Energy Gathering Realm were not strong enough to fight against the tremendous
energy of the white column.
The only two cultivators of the Earth Realm, Rankin and Madden, fought against the energy columns,
but they were ultimately exhausted and eventually died.
Raymond, however, did not die. It was Austin who intended not to attack him to keep him alive for a
while.
When he was the only one left alive inside the array, Austin moved his body as quickly as a ghost. He
gathered his array flags together into a cloth bag and put it into his space ring.
Raymond was only at the sixth level of the Energy Gathering Realm. If Austin killed Raymond with this
array, it would be as easy as smacking a fly.
As the array was put away, Raymond, who had been scared out of his wits, started running away as
quickly as he could.
"Ha ha ha! Do you really think you can escape successfully?"
Austin kept still until Raymond had run far enough for him to strike perfectly. He used his Wind-
commanding Skill and strode only a step. In one second, Austin flashed before Raymond and stopped
any of his movement.
Using only a hand, he swiftly clutched Raymond on his feet and held him upside down as a hunter
would typically hold its caught prey.
"Austin Lin, you cannot possibly kill me. My grandfather is one of the Elders of the Flaming Sun Valley.
If you kill me, my grandfather surely will not let you go..." Raymond began his threat, desperate to hold
on to his life.
"If you let me live, I will grant you a significant amount of vital energy crystals. I can also give you
spiritual weapons or martial arts skills if you want. I can provide you whatever you ask for... ...
Just let me live. ... I am way too young to die. ..."
Looking at Austin's face filled with utmost intent to kill, Raymond seemed to have lost his mind and was
not able to talk normally. First, he threatened him, and now he was trying to bribe him into keeping him
alive.
In the end, he started to cry, tears harshly rushed on his face—apparent with absolute fear.
The color of his pants started to darken with liquid filling the spaces of its threads. A stinky smell filled
the space around—he had wet his pants in fright!
Austin did not say anything and just glared at Raymond with his sharp eyes. Under his gaze, Raymond
was almost driven mad.
"Ha! You are just a waste of blood. What you did was dominate others and bully the weak, with your
powerful grandfather to back you," Austin sneered at Raymond.
"You are right, Austin. I am just a waste of blood. Your hand will get dirty if you kill me. I am a jerk, and
what I did was wrong. I apologize. I will never do that again."
Raymond immediately begged.
"Oh? Now you know you were wrong? It's too late to repent now."
Austin said in a stern tone and stopped. He did not want to talk to Raymond anymore.
"Remember to be a good man in your next life!"
After Austin finished talking, he punched Raymond on his chest, and his body was shot far away
quickly like a bullet. When it dropped, the ground was smashed, forming a big pit. His body had
liquefied and had mixed with the dirt.
Austin moved his body and walked over to pick up Raymond's space ring.
Raymond had successfully obtained a snow dragon fruit back in Ganges Auction House.
Moreover, known for lavishly spending his money, he must have brought a big fortune with him.
Of course, Austin would not miss the big fortune. He had spent almost all of his vital energy crystals to
attend the auction of the Illusory Swordsmanship. In a flash, he had almost lost all of his energy
crystals, and he needed to replenish it now.
Picking up Raymond's space ring, Austin also found five more. The space rings did not belong to
anyone now and Austin, of course, took them delightedly. He transferred whatever was in those rings to
his own.
"Violet, let's go now. We cannot stay here for long," Austin said in a quick tone.
Using his spiritual sense, Austin could cover the distance of about four hundred meters around. Luckily,
no one was around.
At this moment, Austin started his Wind-commanding Skill. In an instant, he left the place which was full
of blood and dead bodies.
After a short time, Austin had gone to a forest not far away.
And in a span of half a day, Austin had arrived back at the Sun Sect. . . .
He was gone for about ten days. Returning to the Sun Sect, Austin felt good to be back home. The
place was like his home as he had spent all his teenage days here in the Sun Sect.
Austin directly went towards the house he had rented and saw that the gate was open.
"Why does Evan leave the gate open? Is he not aware of thieves?' Austin thought to himself.
He knew that Evan was a careless man and it was typical of him to always lose or forget something.
Shaking his head at this thought, Austin entered the yard.
But as soon as he landed several steps in, his face paled, and he immediately stopped.
On the stone table at the center of his yard were all wine and food. Five disciples were sitting around
the table, raucously drinking and playing. Their faces were all red and seemed to be completely drunk.
His yard was a total mess! The plants were all on the ground, and there was even a smell of human
excrement—it really stank so much!
The neat and clean yard when Austin left had become so filthy!
The disciples noticed Austin, who stood frozen and utterly surprised.
Immediately, all of them stood up, looking so flabbergasted as if they had seen a ghost. They did not
expect that Austin would be back. Now, they were all dead meat.
