"This is very unfortunate.
I just wanted to talk nicely, but you're so uncooperative."
Austin heaved a sigh as he shook his head.
Then, right after he finished speaking, he released endless array power with just a slight wave of his
hand.
He was done talking, and he was on the move to get what he wanted.
Immediately after, the arrays in the palace began to tremble violently, creating huge cracks on their
surfaces.
"What the hell is going on? This is impossible!
These arrays were personally set up by my master. It had withstood countless invasion and protected
this place all this time. How can you easily break them?!"
Yusuf couldn't help but stare at the arrays in utter disbelief. They were like fragile glasses that were
gradually shattering in front of him.
In his mind, his master was the most omnipotent being that he had ever known. Thus, he was confident
that no one would be able to harm or destroy these arrays.
However, at this moment, these very arrays were breaking one by one without any sign of stopping.
"I don't believe this! Just who the hell are you?"
Yusuf was dumbfounded by the sudden turn of events. He didn't know what to think or do right now.
Even Orson was taken aback as he witnessed all of this.
After all, he also knew that these arrays were personally set up by Armstrong. Even if he knew that
Austin was undoubtedly strong, he wasn't expecting this enormous display of power from him.
It was known that Armstrong was one of the most powerful masters in this space sea. Even his
enemies acknowledged his brilliance when it came to these supposedly indestructible arrays.
However, it seemed like they were just nothing in front of Austin.
"You idiot! What did we just tell you? We just wanted to talk properly, but you resorted to using force as
soon as we met.
Now, you reap what you sow," the chaotic sky-devouring beast said as he sighed helplessly.
"Orson! Tell me what's going on. Who are these people?"
Yusuf was obviously terrified as he stared at Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast. There wasn't
a single trace of his earlier arrogance.
"You! Cut the crap and tell me everything I'm gonna ask. You'd better do as I say, or you're going to be
sorry," Austin said sternly.
He was actually a sensible person. If people treated him fairly and appropriately, he would do the
same. But if they showed some rough attitude, then they should expect that he was going to do the
same.
As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible pressure instantly spread and enveloped the entire
space. Powerful energies and laws surged out that completely overwhelmed the space where the
palace was.
Soon enough, Yusuf was surprised to find as if his body was being suppressed by tens of thousands of
formidable divine mountains. It was insanely difficult to move that he couldn't even lift a finger.
At this point, he began to realize that the young man he offended was way stronger than him, and there
was no way that he could defeat him.
A bit earlier, he was already prepared to rush out and launch an attack. But seeing his current situation,
he was actually glad that he didn't do it because he could just imagine the consequences of his actions
if he provoked Austin further.
All of his earlier confidence was crushed as he recognized the superiority of his opponent.
"Orson, what are you thinking by bringing them here?
Once my master knows about this, you will have a miserable ending! I can assure you that.
And you two! You'd better think twice about laying a hand on me, or you will deeply regret it!"
Yusuf threatened out of exasperation.
He knew that at his current state, it would be impossible for him to defeat Austin and the chaotic sky-
devouring beast. However, he also didn't feel the need to fear them since he knew that his master was
one of the strongest masters in this space sea. If they did anything rash, his master would surely
retaliate for his sake.
That was why in the past, no one dared to provoke him in this space sea. Even if his opponent was
stronger than him, the moment he mentioned his master's name, his enemy would immediately turn
away, scared of being the recipient of his master's wrath.
Hence, he thought that his only way of getting out of this predicament was to threaten and frighten
them by using his master's name.
"You're stupid, aren't you? I know who your master is, and that's the very reason why I came to you.
So, just shut up and be obedient if you don't want to suffer that badly,"
Austin retorted with an indifferent smile.
"What? How dare you say that? Aren't you afraid of my master?!" Yusuf exclaimed.
He was flabbergasted and infuriated at Austin's audacity to take his master lightly.
"This guy is so talkative. I think I just know how to make him cooperate."
The chaotic sky-devouring beast began to get impatient. He took a step forward and suddenly released
a ferocious energy pressure that instantly shot towards Yusuf.
Although Yusuf was a governing god, he was still caught off guard by the intense energy pressure from
the chaotic sky-devouring beast. He immediately fell to the ground and felt like his entire body was
tightly wrapped by invisible chains.
"Stop this! I've already informed my master of your presence. He'll be here very soon. So, if you ever
try to hurt me, you're going to pay a great price!"
Yusuf shouted in horror, feeling so vulnerable.
'What the hell is with the strength of these two? It's inconceivable! Fortunately, I didn't fight them head-
on. Otherwise, I don't know what would happen to me.'
Orson couldn't help but be secretly relieved when he saw the pitiful state of Yusuf. He was crawling on
the ground and didn't even have the strength to stand.
"Really? You've already informed Armstrong, and you're certain that he's coming soon?
Good! That went well."
Austin was elated to hear Yusuf's words. His main purpose was actually to look for Armstrong. Thus,
that was what he exactly wanted.
"Ha-ha! I thought we would still need to force this guy to inform his master. I didn't expect him to be the
cowardly type that would quickly call for his master for help once he was in a tight spot,"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast taunted as he laughed wildly.
"All right. Since you've already called for your master, we'll just wait for him here,"
Austin said with a casual smile.
When he heard the remarks of Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast, Yusuf suddenly had a bad
feeling about it.
'What the heck? Did they deliberately come to lure my master out? I don't know if they're crazy or what,
but could they be stronger than my master?
No, that's impossible! Even if they're a lot stronger than me, that doesn't mean that they can beat my
master,'
Yusuf pondered carefully.
For a brief moment, he had mixed feelings about the situation.
Meanwhile, on the top of a desolate mountain on an abandoned continent in the space sea, a man
could be found sitting with his legs crossed.
He had been in this place for a very long time and never moved. At this point, he was already like an
ancient statue.
His body was covered with thick dust, and if one wasn't observant enough, he wouldn't even notice that
it was actually a person. It would just be easily mistaken as a pile of soil.
"This space sea is already too small for me. It's time to set out. I won't make any further progress if I
continue to stay here.
But then again, this is my hometown. I'm a bit reluctant to just abandon the place where I grew up and
achieved all that I have today,"
the man murmured in a faint voice.
Then, for the first time in a long while, he gently raised his head and looked at the distant space.
"Well, I still have to leave. I have to go to the Absolute Space Sea and pursue greater development.
That's more important right now," the man said to himself as he heaved a deep sigh.
