"Ten renowned individuals of the Brilliant Kingdom..."
Austin silently laughed to himself at the comments.
The laws of nature on Earth no longer worked and spiritual energy was long exhausted.
In Austin's eyes, no matter how well-known and talented they were, they posed no threat to him at all.
Right at that moment, a thick grey fog rolled over above them and blotted out the sky, filling the atmosphere with terror.
Just then a few people with grey wings on their back appeared from afar and flew towards the peak.
Each one of the winged old men looked ancient and that, along with their grey eyes, made them very intimidating.
"Look! Those people even have wings! They're so strange!"
Several people on the peak cried out in surprise as they pointed at the winged men.
"Haven't you heard of them before? They appeared in our Brilliant Kingdom over ten days ago.
People say that they're cultivators from the west.
Besides, | also found out a secret. These cultivators have another identity. Guess what?
I'm sure that you'll never guess what they are,"
a man mysteriously said.
"What is it?"
Everyone around him turned to him curiously.
"They're from the Divine Moon Sect's headquarters!
The Divine Moon Sect isn't a local sect but is from a foreign country!"
he loudly declared to everyone who was listening.
"What?! It is a foreign sect?!
Are you sure?!" The news sent waves of shock to those who heard.
Most of them heard of it for the first tand it caused a commotion among them.
"By the way, | also heard that these cultivators cfrom the Divine Moon Sect's headquarters rushed to our country to kill
someone.
That person they want to kill is... Austin Lin!"
The man revealed even more shocking news.
"So they want to kill that Austin guy!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEveryone gaped at him in shock.
"It's not really surprising.
That guy killed so many people in the suburbs of Smile city.
Many members from the major sects like the Buddhist Sect, the Tang Clan, the West Mountain Sect, the East Mountain Sect, and
even the Divine Moon Sect were killed.
Now all of them are looking for Austin to take revenge,"
someone explained.
"l also heard that the Heavenly Mountain Sect holds a grudge against him. A force affiliated to the Heavenly Mountain Sect, the Xu
Clan you know, was almost exterminated by Austin.
Damn it! Where on earth did that brat cfrom? He's a load of trouble!"
"He becthe martial arts world's common enemy in a span of a few days!"
Every disciple on the mountain peak openly began gossiping about Austin.
'l can't believe that I'm already famous, *
Austin thought to himself and sneered.
Not too long ago, Austin did kill a group of people from the martial arts world in the suburbs of Smile City.
In his defense, it was because he helped a paralyzed man get back on his feet with the Magic Sea Water and then used a divine pill
to prolong the man's life by 30 years.
After that, a large group of cultivators tracked him down and so Austin killed them all except for a few who managed to escape.
It seemed like the survivors managed to quickly spread the news.
Since Austin used his real nat the auction and he and Alice recognized each other, his identity was easily investigated by the
Brilliant Kingdom's cultivators.
‘Fortunately, | sent my family to the mountain god's temple already.
| also set up many arrays around the temple; that'll ensure their safety, '
Austin thought to himself.
There was a large group of classically styled buildings on the top of the mountain as well as a big square paved with stone slabs.
The square was built like an arena in Rome. Moreover, it looked rather ancient but was still solid and could accommodate at least
tens of thousands of people.
This was where the Martial Arts Meeting would be held.
Throngs of people filled the auditorium's seats. Every big sect or clan was all clearly distinct from each other.
A group of people from the Emerald Sect were having a heated discussion.
"Superior elders, leader, it turns out that the Austin who was staying in our headquarters is actually a ferocious person.
He killed not only hundreds of cultivators from different sects in Smile City but also almost exterminated the Xu Clan in the
southwest!
Superior elders and leader, please think twice!
Our Emerald Sect can't be friends with someone so bloodthirsty and savage!
Because of Austin, we'll be implicated and can becthe common enemy of the martial arts world,"
Hiram, a handsyoung man with a long sword strapped at his waist, chided Austin agitatedly.
All three of the superior elders and the leader stayed silent as if they were in deep thought.
After all, there was no lie in Hiram's words.
As the core leaders of the Emerald Sect, the four of them had to carefully look at the situation from all angles.
"Hiram, shut up!
Don't speak like that about my master!
Humph, do you think | don't know what you're planning? You set my master up because you don't wantto stay with him!"
Yulia loudly snapped out; her brows raised to high heavens as she looked down at Hiram.
"Yulia, what are you talking about? Everything | said was for the sake of our Emerald Sect's interests.
You're too young and naive. You don't know the dangers of the outside world.
Austin's an evil man and you'll be dragged down with him sooner or later.
Yulia, | can't allow you to stay with him any longer!"
Hiram's tone was filled with arrogant righteous fury.
"Hiram's words do make sense.
Maybe our Emerald Sect should keep a certain distance from Austin so we wouldn't get negatively affected by his actions,"
a superior elder slowly said.
"Grandpa!"
Yulia anxiously turned to her grandfather, her eyes pleading for help.
"What do you think of Austin's strength?"
asked Yulia's grandfather.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was a quick moment where the leader of the Emerald Sect and the two other superior elders were stunned by the question
before they quickly gathered their bearings and answered, "Even if we fight him together, we won't survive a single one of his
blows."
"Based on your current knowledge about the many top martial artists in the martial arts world of our Brilliant Kingdom, or even
within the entirety of Earth, who could possibly be stronger than Austin?
So even if the cultivators of the whole martial arts world of our kingdom joined hands, would they be able to defeat Austin?"
Yulia's grandfather questioned.
"Well..."
The leader and the other elders paused for a moment as their minds raced.
"That's right. Austin's too powerful.
We should try to stay in his good graces.
How about this? Let's maintain the status quo for now; when the tcomes, we'll play it by ear.
Simply put, we shouldn't offend the other cultivators of the Brilliant Kingdom.
As for Austin, we won't do anything that may offend him either.
In a world, we should stay out of this fight,"
one of the superior elders said seriously.
The leader and the two other elders nodded in agreement.
Unbeknownst to them, a faint sneer appeared at the corner of Hiram's mouth.
‘No, | have to inform my master that all the sects are trying to make things difficult for him.
No matter how strong he is, it will still be difficult for him to deal with so many people at the stime!"
Yulia thought to herself as she retreated into the crowd and quietly disappeared.
