The Supreme God of Martial Arts

The sun's rays passed through gaps among tree branches, creating numerous penlights on the ground of the dense forest. It made a beautiful scenery.

But Austin, who leaned against a sturdy branch near the top of one tree, hardly appreciated the view. He gently bit into a green root, and a faint bitter taste quickly spread inside his mouth.

From that angle, he saw five figures drawing closer to where he had taken as temporary cover.

When he could make them out clearly, Austin identified them as the five outer disciples following Billy.

When they reached the tree where Austin was hiding, two disciples who were at the tail end of the team suddenly stopped.

Alarmed, Austin thought, ‘Have they seen me?" Frowning slightly, he kept calm and shrank farther into the shadows of the tree's leaves and branches.

Then the vital energy in his body started to flow, and he prepared to launch an attack any time.

A voice jolted him.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing? Stop dilly-dallying!" one of the three disciples said loudly. They walked in front of the two now standing underneath Austin's hideout.

The two responded together just as loudly,” You go ahead. We need to take a leak first!" "Damn! | already warned you against being with whores from the Pink Delights House of Peace Town each time you're free. But you guys don't listen. Look at you now, urinating so frequently! You're probably suffering from kidney disorder! Hurry up! Once you've relieved yourselves, catch up with us,” the disciple in the lead said helplessly.

Once he finished admonishing them, he walked on with the two other disciples.

The two, who were left behind under the tree, looked around, saw no one, and quickly relieved themselves.

Hearing they just said and seeing what they were doing, Austin heaved a deep sigh of relief. Quietly, he cursed them for making him jittery.

After a while, he overheard their conversation. "Now, even Billy has to follow Marvin's commands?" one of them said in disbelief.

"Yeah, that's right. And Billy has no choice but to obey Marvin because he ranks fifth among all the outer disciples. In this world, it's the words of those with the big and powerful fists that matter. Us? We're just insignificant sidekicks. Whoever is the commander has no influence on us. So, | don't give a damn!" his companion retorted.

"You're right. I've heard Marvin say that whoever can find a clue to where Austin is hiding will be awarded two pills of Energy- boosting Elixirs.

| have to admit that he's very generous with the rewards," the first disciple said.

"Well, don't forget that his uncle is Johnson Su, a steward of Sun Sect. A few pills of Energy-boosting Elixir are no big deal to him. What | envy most, though, is that Lara. She's such a beauty and so obedient to him," he sighed dreamily.

Face turning lewd, the other remarked,” Damn! That bitch is so hot, and her big ass looks so seductive. Every time | see her, | have this strong urge to push her to the ground and have sex with her." He could feel his loins heating up.

"Keep your voice down. That bitch is Marvin's exclusive and permanent mistress. If you have so many lascivious thoughts about her, you better guard against your life. Marvin will waste no time in getting rid of you!" The warning was given seriously.

"Uhmmm, she's just a piece of rubbish. Marvin might have had sex with her hundreds or thousands of times. She's no different from other whores in Pink Delights House," the disciple lusting after Lara said angrily.

"Oh forget it! Stop talking about such nonsense. No matter what, Marvin's woman is the one that we small and insignificant sidekicks can't afford to have sex with. Let's catch up with the others,” he said hurriedly.

Fixing his pants, the disciple turned around first and took two steps when suddenly, without a sound, a black shadow appeared before him.

Before he could react, he felt a chill in his throat right before blood gushed out violently from a deep cut killing him instantly.

Before he collapsed, Austin caught him quickly and dragged his body nearby.

"Let's go!" his partner called out after fixing himself up.

As he turned around slowly, it puzzled him to see he was alone. Looking around, he realized his companion was no longer there.

A chill ran down his spine. But before he could utter a word, he felt something slightly cool on his throat as a black blade was against it.

Then a clean, good-looking face appeared before him and gave him a sneer.

Silently, he cried out, "Austin!" As soon as he recognized who was trying to kill him, the outer disciple started to tremble in panic.

He had enough reasons to be horrified. For one, Billy, who was much stronger than him, had been defeated by Austin. And for another, he was alone now.

And with Austin's blade against his throat, he had every opportunity to kill him! Stammering, he pleaded," Please...

Please don't kill me!" the disciple said in desperation.

Close to tears, he begged once more," Spare me! | don't want to die!" Feeling the cold blade against his throat, he knew begging was his only chance of survival.

Suddenly, a very strong odor emanating from his lower body permeated the air, and a waterline, running down the leg of his trousers, appeared. He was overwhelmed by fear that he peed involuntarily.

"Ah, so you know that you should be scared now? | believe that in the past, there were no grudges between me and you guys, right? But now, Billy has ordered you to kill me!" he said harshly.

"Austin... Please, | realize now that...

| was wrong. | shouldn't have joined them to kill you. Please, spare my life!" Voice trembling, he continued to beg for his life.

"Humph! Get out of my sight now!" Austin said sharply. "If | ever see you again, you can be sure | will kill you." And since he wasn't going to take this disciple's life now, the Negative Shadow Blade that was on his hunter's throat received the order and disappeared.

The young cultivator turned around and strode to leave.

Meanwhile, the outer disciple who escaped death so easily was elated by his luck.

When he finally calmed down, he now saw that Austin's back was to him. Suddenly, his mind started to race. 'He can't see me now. That means his guard is down and | have a very good chance of killing him, ' he thought.

Smiling to himself, he mumbled, "If | killed him, it would mean a big achievement for me, and | could get a lot of rewards for it." Before facing death earlier, this man was vicious, used to bullying male and female disciples weaker than him. But with the intent to kill forming in his mind, he no longer hesitated.

Quietly, he raised his saber, took two steps forward stealthily, and prepared to slash Austin's back.

Yet, he didn't know that Austin's spiritual sense had been monitoring his every move.

Sensing the villain was on the attack, Austin shook his head, drew his long sword, turned quickly, and pierced his enemy's belly with the tip of his weapon.

"Why did you have to force me to kill you?" Austin asked with a hint of sympathy.

The sword cutting through his belly was least expected. At once, he felt a sharp pain, and shortly after, he lost consciousness before finally succumbing.
