The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Tkept ticking away.

"Rogan was a lascivious person and deserved punishment by death.

You have done a splendid job.

However...

You might get into trouble by killing him.

Allin all, you got involved because of me.

I'll bring you to the Xiao Family, and I'll explain all of this to my father.

My family will protect you.

Humph. Rodolfo is formidable, but my family doesn't fear him,"

Belle firmly said to Austin. She had fully decided to bring Austin under her family's protection.

"You will taketo your family?"

Austin responded to Belle with a confused look on his face.

He just killed Rogan and broke Rodolfo's spiritual sense sign.

However, he hadn't expected Belle to take him to the Xiao Family's house.

"Kid, do what she says. Rodolfo is a Divine Bridge Realm warrior. You're too weak to fight against him right now.

I'm afraid that he has sent people to search for your whereabouts.

Also, this girl seems to have a rich and powerful family behind her. | advise you to seek shelter in her family.

Once things get settled down, we can make a plan to get out of the Solamnia Kingdom,"

the FlEmperor's voice echoed in Austin's Soul Sea.

"Alright,"

Austin replied and nodded in agreement.

"What about him? What should we do?"

Austin turned to Alvin's direction and was intent on ending his life.

Alvin's elixir field was ruined by Austin with a swift sword strike. He lost his cultivation base as a result.

He also witnessed Austin kill Rogan and break Rodolfo's spiritual sense sign with little effort.

Alvin was impressed and also frightened by what Austin showcased. Now, he stared at Austin with terrified eyes, as if Austin were a

demon itching to strike him with the deathblow.

In his eyes, Austin was indeed a devil after committing such heinous acts.

"Please forgive me, Belle.

| made smistakes and | won't do it again, | promise. Remember that I'm also your family. Please letgo,"

Alvin pleaded with Belle desperately after hearing Austin's words.

Deep down in his heart, he knew that Austin would easily slice him into a million pieces without hesitation.

Belle coldly stared at Alvin and found his groveling pathetic and utterly repulsive.

He was the one who set a trap, coerced her and almost succeeded in tarnishing her reputation.

However, in spite of all this, she knew that he was still her family.

"Let him go, and he'll get his punishment whatever it is," Belle remarked at Austin.

She then turned around without giving another glance at Alvin. After nodding at Austin, Belle quickly jumped off the ground and

left the scene.

Austin and the queen also flew into the sky and immediately followed her.

Alvin had lost his cultivation base and was abandoned in the Black-wind Beast World where many ferocious and blood-thirsty

beasts lurked and preyed on those unsuspecting and defenseless victims.

At his current state, any beast, weak or strong, could easily tear him limb from limb.

Although Belle chose to let him go, he was as good as dead.

Austin knew that Alvin's chances of surviving were slim.

At the stime, inside a secret chamber in the capital city of the Solamnia Kingdom.

An old man with stooped shoulders and disheveled hair was sitting on the ground, cross-legged.

It was Rodolfo.

Actually, it was Rodolfo's real body.

All of a sudden, he opened his eyes and his wrinkled face unfurled. Horrible lights began to burst out from his eyes.

Those lights lashed out in all directions at the speed of lightning.

A large expanse before him collapsed. Immense cracks began spreading throughout the space.

This show of power rendered the space shattered and sundered into pieces.

At this very moment, Rodolfo, exhausted as he was, seethed with unquenchable hatred.

With a wave of his hand, a light curtain appeared in the secret chamber. It then began projecting two figures.

The two figures that Rodolfo was intently staring at with his fiery, rage-filled eyes

were that of Austin and the queen.

"Unbelievable! Nobody has ever dared to lay a hand on my grandson in the Solamnia Kingdom. Now these two insufferable gnats

have the audacity to leave him for dead?

Those two insects shall pay for attempting to kill my grandson, even if he's hopeless and useless. This atrocity shall not go

unpunished!

Anyone who bears the sflesh and blood as my own should be treated with the utmost respect,"

Rodolfo furiously muttered to himself. When he finally calmed down, he placed Austin and the queen on the blacklist of wanted

people who should be hunted down and killed by his family members.

"The first prince's plot will be carried out soon.

| must get out of this secret chamber and witness all his plans unfold."

Rodolfo slowly stood up and walked out of the chamber. His body then disappeared into thin air.

At the smoment, Austin and the queen were closely following Belle as she was flying in midair.

A few moments later, Belle slowed down and flew towards Austin's side.

"I don't think you two are from the Solamnia Kingdom,"

Belle remarked.

Austin was not prepared to answer her statement.

"Rodolfo is well known throughout the kingdom. If you were born and have been living in the Solamnia Kingdom, there's no

possible way that you two didn't know him,"

Belle explained after she saw Austin's puzzled expression.

"You're right. The kingdom is strange to us,"

Austin replied.

However, Austin decided to hide the fact that they were actually transferred from another world to this one. After all, Austin didn't

trust Belle enough to confide such details to her.

"Letgive you sneed-to-know information about the large forces in the Solamnia Kingdom.

Afterwards, you can then make sinformed decisions.

Otherwise, you might incur the wrath of spowerful people,"

Belle explained. She felt that Austin's cold-heartedness and decisiveness could prove to cause them trouble during their stay in the

Solamnia Kingdom.

Austin's mouth twitched slightly, and then he broke out a smile.

'l incurred Rodolfo's anger by saving your ass, '

Austin thought to himself.

The queen saw Austin's face flush red with embarrassment. She covered her mouth to refrain herself from laughing loudly.

Belle proceeded to brief Austin about the major forces in the Solamnia Kingdom.

As it turned out, the Solamnia Kingdom was located in the eastern part of the Divine Continent.

There were so many kingdoms that were bigger than the Solamnia Kingdom. Thus, the latter sometimes seemed insignificant on

the Divine Continent.

Moreover, the Black-wind Beast World within the said kingdom was well known as a treacherous environment that housed

countless ferocious and ruthless beasts.

The Solamnia Kingdom had three major sects in its borders. These were the Spirit Relics Sect, the True Heaven Sect and the Golden

Pearl Sect.

Furthermore, another powerful force existed there - the royal family of the Solamnia Kingdom.

Moreover, it turned out that the leader of the Xiao Family was the prminister of the kingdom.

Meanwhile, Rodolfo was the great marshal.

Both the leader of the Xiao Family and Rodolfo were two highly esteemed officials and they often competed against each other in

almost everything.

That was because the leader of the Xiao Family supported the third prince.

Conversely, Rodolfo backed the first prince.

Belle's information proved to be a huge help for Austin. He now knew of the political landscape of the Solamnia Kingdom.

Moreover, he now had a better understanding of the Xiao Family and Rodolfo's family.

Rodolfo, who Austin pissed off, was the great marshal of the Solamnia Kingdom.

"Why did you cto the Black-wind Beast World? Why were you pursued by Alvin and Rogan?"

Austin asked Belle out of curiosity.

Belle was the daughter of the prminister and was held in high regard by others. Austin wondered why she appeared in this

horrible place that diabolic beast called home.
