At the sight of Emma and Debby, the two servants guarding the gates rushed toward them.
"My ladies, you've finally returned," they greeted Emma and Debby with delight.
The two servants cast a surprised look at Austin before inviting the three people inside.
The servants led the way to the lobby.
"Please wait here. | will inform the mistress about your return," one of the two servants said as he bowed and turned to leave.
He then ran out of the room with joy.
The other servant brought Austin stea.
Emma and Debby stayed in the lobby with Austin.
After a short wait, Austin saw a woman enter the hall. Although she was about fifty years old, she was still attractive.
"Oh, Debby and Emma! My sweet babies! You are home, finally!" the woman exclaimed as she hugged the two girls tightly.
With a sigh, the woman pulled away from the girls. Then, she looked at her daughters up and down as she examined them for
injuries.
Now that they were safely hin their mother's embrace, Emma and Debby stopped pretending to be tough. They started
sobbing as they recalled what had happened to them.
Austin stood aside, looking embarrassed.
‘This lady is their mother, ' he thought.
Finally, after several moments, the mother and her daughters calmed down.
"Mom, | forgot to introduce our friend. This is Austin Lin.
When we were in the Triangle Zone, he saved Debby andseveral times. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been able to
return home."
Emma introduced Austin to her mother.
The girls had been so busy telling their mother about their adventure that they had not thought of Austin.
Upon hearing this, the lady repeatedly expressed her gratitude to Austin for helping her daughters.
Austin was not good at handling situations like this. So, he was at a loss and didn't know how to respond. As a result, his face
turned red, and so did his ears.
"Oh, Mom, | got the cold ashes herb.
Dad will feel better once he takes it," Emma said to her mother.
Then she took out several cold ashes herbs to show her mother.

"Con, let's take these to Dad.
The sooner he consumes them, the sooner he can begin his recovery,"
Debby proposed, grabbing Emma's hand.
The smile on the middle-aged woman's face vanished immediately.
"Emma, something has happened..."
she said with a sigh.
She looked troubled.
Emma and Debby were stunned.
"Mom, what's the matter?
What has happened?
Has Dad's condition worsened?"
Emma inquired. Concern for her father's health laced Emma's voice.
Austin observed the two girls’ mother silently. 'She looks disturbed. Her eyes are red and swollen. She must have been crying.
Something bad must have happened, ' he surmised.
"Emma, | must tell you something.
Soon after you left home, the men from the Fire Worshiping Sect chere to threaten your grandpa. They wanted him to tell
them the secret about our shrine.
When your grandpa refused, they got angry and took your father, your Uncle Ned, and Uncle Liam as prisoners.
They said that they would release them once your grandpa changed his mind.
The Fire Worshiping Sect also sent men to watch us.
We can't leave this city.
They will hunt us if we try to leave.
Now, the Fire Worshiping Sect has your father,"
Emma and Debby's mother replied honestly.
"How could they do that?
The Fire Worshiping Sect has gone too far," Emma and Debby seethed.
They were shocked by the news and annoyed by the actions of the Fire Worshiping Sect.
"Let's go, Emma. We must save Dad," Debby said as she pulled her sister toward the entrance.
Although she was short-tempered, Debby was a good girl. Now that she knew that her father was in trouble, she decided to rescue
him.
"Debby, calm down.
You can't save your father even if you break into their stronghold.
The people in the Fire Worshiping Sect are way too strong. You're no match for them," said the mother. She was shocked at Debby's
reaction.
She ran toward Debby, embraced her from behind, and dragged her back to where she had been.
Austin pretended to cough to break the tense atmosphere.
"What's this Fire Worshiping Sect?" Austin asked Emma.
"It is one of the sects in our country.
Although it is not the most prominent sect, it has tens of thousands of disciples.
It dominates many places, including our Water City,"
Emma replied with a scowl.
"Who is the strongest among the members of this sect?"
Austin continued.
"Nathan Li, the sect leader.
It is said that he is at the preliminary stage of Heaven Realm,"
Emma replied.
"l see."
Austin nodded.
"The most important thing is to figure out where they are keeping your father,"
he muttered, deep in thought.
"Austin, are you planning to free our Dad?" Emma and Debby asked in unison.
Their faces lit up.
They stared at Austin expectantly.

Emma and Debby were aware of Austin's real strength. 'When we were in the Triangle Zone, he eliminated several groups of
demons and members of the Heaven Palace.
Besides, he commands several thousand people.
If he is willing to help us, we can get our father back, ' the two girls thought.
"Yes, of course. We're friends, aren't we? Do you think that | am so heartless that | won't offer my help when you need it?"
Austin replied with a playful smile.
"Of course, we see you as our friend. And we know that you're a good person," Emma and Debby explained immediately.
They sounded quite excited.
Austin's answer gave them hope because they believed that he could help their father.
"The sooner | get him out, the better.
| suppose the Fire Worshiping Sect's stronghold is in this city.
I'll find out where your father is being held," Austin said.
‘Their father is severely injured. If | don't rescue him soon, he might die, ' he thought.
"What? Are you going to the Fire Worshiping Sect's stronghold now?
Mr. Lin, we best give this further thought.
The Fire Worshiping Sect is very powerful, and it's too dangerous for you to go alone. We can't afford to make any mistakes if we
want to save our family members," the mother suggested.
She was taken aback by what Austin said.
Having spent her whole life in the Water City, she knew a lot about the Fire Worshiping Sect. Aware of what they were capable of,
the mother was afraid of the consequences of a rash plan against the sect.
Upon hearing Austin's idea, she stopped him instantly. Not only was she fearful for her family, she worried that this kind young man
might get himself killed.
"Don't worry. I'll return safe and sound," Austin responded with a reassuring smile.
Without wasting any more time, Austin activated his bodily movement skill. The next minute, he was nowhere to be seen.
"What... What should we do?
Emma, Debby, you're putting your friend's life in jeopardy,"
the woman scolded her daughters.
"Don't worry, Mom.
Austin is far stronger than you could imagine,"
Emma replied, setting her mother's mind at ease.
