The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin silently looked at those who begged him to spare their lives.

They were rattled and terrified as his cold gaze slowly panned towards their direction.

They were fully aware that they stood no chance against Austin even if they attacked him together.

After all, they had heard about the news that Austin vanquished thirty or forty demons of the Semi-emperor Realm in the

Mysterious Sky City on his own.

They had no intention of committing suicide by trying their luck and attacking Austin.

After all, they knew that the founder of the Magic Hand Sect—Angus who was levitating above the square was aligned with Austin.

Angus had been controlling the Saint Pill Array. It meant that all the people's lives were in his hands.

No one dared to make a move against Austin.

"That's enough, Austin. There is no need to kill all of them,"

Angus said to Austin through his spiritual sense.

Austin nodded his head in agreement.

"So you are willing to compensate me?"

Austin said.

"Yes, of course. Please give us a chance, Commander Austin!"

the leaders and reclusive elders of those sects responded immediately while sporting surprised and delighted look on their faces.

"All right. | didn't force you to do that,"

Austin said as he shrugged his shoulders.

"Of course you didn't coerce us. It's our own choice. Ha-ha. We wanted to compensate you."

"Yes, it's our own choice."

‘Trading crystals for my life is a good deal. Even though I'm going to pay him lots of crystals, | can earn them in the future. If | lose

my life, I'll lose everything, ' they thought.

They nodded cheerfully as if they heard sgood news.

Seven joyfully shook in their place.

They could tell that Austin was going to let them go.

"All right. It's better to make friends than make enemies. Besides, | don't enjoy killing for nothing.

Now that you've shown your sincerity, I'll give you another chance. It's up to you to decide how many crystals you're going to give

me,"

Austin declared to the captive leaders and elders.

Upon hearing what he said, the rest started to retort in their heads.

‘Damn it! You have got be kidding, you little brat. If you're not big on killing, why did you slaughter so many sect leaders?’

However, none of them dared say it out loud.

"Commander Austin, you are really generous.

We're willing to give you sixty million divine vital energy crystals,"

the leader of the Thunder Sect offered.

"We will turn in sixty million divine vital energy crystals to you,"

the leader of the Cyan Sect followed.

The other leaders or reclusive elders of other sects who had proposed to work with Lyman to fight Austin expressed that they

would give Austin sixty million divine vital energy crystals.

The sect leaders who hadn't proposed to join hands with Lyman against Austin felt lucky.

‘Luckily | made a wise decision. Otherwise | would need to pay Austin sixty million divine vital energy crystals, ' they thought

among themselves.

Sixty million divine vital energy crystals was a considerate fortune for any major sects in the South Continent.

Those leaders and reclusive elders didn't possess that many divine vital energy crystals with them at the moment, so they

promised Austin that they would send their men to bring those crystals to him in a couple of days.

"Austin is really good at making money. Now he is going to receive another hundreds of millions of divine vital energy crystals.

Godwin, | bet your disciple is the richest man in the PrMartial World now.

He just made a fortune with that deal between the reclusive elders and leaders.

| have hoarded only a total of ten million divine vital energy crystals during my long life.

It's not even close to what Austin will be receiving!"

Peter sighed as he set his envious gaze towards Austin.

"You've got a point."

Julius followed with a nod.

"This brat is always so lucky and smart,"

Godwin responded with a laugh.

"Well, I'll let it go.

But there is one thing | want to tell you.

If things like this happen again, | will not spare you so easily,"

Austin said to the captives in a stern manner.

'Who in their right mind would dare to cross you, you creepy demon?’

the guests present thought.

"Swoosh!"

Austin recalled his demonic avatar as he didn't intend to kill anyone.

A smirk slowly formed on his face. Tall and thin, he donned himself in plain clothes.

At this point, he looked like an ordinary person who wouldn't cause anyone trouble or pose a serious threat.

Those who had offered to turn in sixty million divine vital energy crystals felt safe and reassured.

‘Looks like this fiend is not going to murder people.’

Suddenly a tall middle-aged man with a full forehead walked to Angus through the crowd.

"Congratulations, sir. You cback to the Magic Hand Sect and avenged yourself against Lyman," he greeted Angus with a

beaming smile.

It was Tierry, the leader of the Heavens Sect from the Purple Phoenix Holy Kingdom. He had just reached the premium stage of

Semi-emperor Realm.

He recommended Austin to be the commander of the Southern Alliances Army.

Seeing Tierry greet Angus, a great number of people on the square snapped out of their thoughts.

Most of the guests, those Semi-emperor Realm masters in particular, went to the ceremony because of Lyman, who was good at

refining pills.

Lyman was known as the best pill refiner in the South Continent. However, Angus was miles away better in alchemy than him.

Furthermore, Angus was famous for his outstanding pill refining skills five hundred years ago. No one could be par with him when it

cto alchemy.

But now, Lyman was dead.

It meant that Angus was the best pill refiner in the South Continent once again.

Moreover, those guests were aware that Angus was on good terms with Austin.

Sucking up to Angus might get them closer to Austin.

Hence, the other guests who saw Tierry congratulate Angus becaware what they should do.

They swarmed towards Angus.

"Congratulations, sir!"

"Ha-ha... I've heard much about you, sir. You deserve your reputation.”

All of them hurled complementary remarks towards Angus in a bid to please him.

Those were leaders or reclusive elders of different sects.

Sof those elders, stewards and disciples weren't even qualified to speak to Angus.

But Angus was an easygoing person. Faced with their enthusiastic congratulations, he responded without putting on airs.

Since Angus had already stopped using the Saint Pill Array, the power emitting from the array disappeared.

The tense atmosphere which enveloped the square vanished too.
