The Supreme God of Martial Arts

"That's not good. Steward Bessie is in danger," the other two stewards said.

They dashed towards their companion's aid.

However, it was already too late.

The ancient evil ape and the five corpse demons pounced continuously at steward Bessie.

"No, no!" As Bessie gave a final shrill scream, her body was ripped into pieces, with her blood spattering on the ground as her flesh was shredded and scattered to the wind.

Quickly, Austin reached out his hand and retrieved the purple vital stone from her remains. Holding the divine weapon, he was overcwith thrill. "It's mine now, ' he exclaimed joyfully in his mind, staring at it.

"Brat, how dare you kill steward Bessie? Now you have made an enemy of the Cyan Sect. You're as good as dead!" one of the other stewards shrieked in a blind rage at Austin.

The two stewards of the Cyan Sect had felt steward Bessie's death with their own spiritual sense. In a way, it was as if they had suffered death with her. Aggrieved, they continued haranguing Austin.

"Oh, shut up!" he snapped impatiently then.

With Austin's manipulation, the ancient evil ape and the five corpse demons surrounded the two instantly and savagely attacked the stewards.

The two were even weaker than the dead steward Bessie. A few moments later, they were already at a serious disadvantage.

"Brat, you're being too bold. We're stewards of the Cyan Sect. If you kill us, you'll be pursued by our whole sect. And then you'll be in grave trouble.

No one in the Elite Holy Kingdom, or even the whole PrMartial World would dare to shelter you!" "Kid, you'd better think twice before killing us. You young people always get yourselves into trouble with your reckless impulses." The two Cyan Sect stewards were trying to avoid suffering steward Bessie's fate by posturing wildly. They knew that they did not stand much of a chance in a fight against Austin's minions.

The two stewards still tried to survive by hiding behind the reputation of their sect.

"Be quiet. You're being too naggy! There's no point in struggling," Austin said impatiently, not interested in their idle threats.

Standing aside, he was busy studying the purple vital stone which rested in his hand. He was in no mood to hear them talk nonsense and nodded an order to the ancient evil ape and the corpse demons.

After a few short moments, the two stewards had been torn to pieces by the ancient evil ape and the five corpse demons. The three stewards of the Cyan Sect were completely destroyed and not even an intact body part remained. Their flesh and bones were scattered on the ground, food for crows now.

Austin summoned the ancient evil ape and the five corpse demons to return, then he flashed forward and vanished into thin air.

... Fifteen minutes later.

In the Full Moon City, at the stronghold of the Cyan Sect.

Elder Susan and Sissi were in a deep discussion with each other.

"Elder Susan, who do you think would possibly send people to assassinate me?" Sissi asked with a deep frown.

Thinking about the ordeal that she had suffered through over the last month, she was still worried and quite freaked out.

"Hump. As far as | can determine, it might be the leader of the six clans or even the other two sects.

Sissi, you're our Holy Daughter, so lots of people would want you dead. You should be more careful and take steps to protect yourself.

I'll escort you back to our headquarters soon and talk with our Sect Leader about letting you enter the secret room earlier. You can't leave there before you reach the cultivation base of Master Realm," Elder Susan replied.

Upon hearing this news, Sissi was overjoyed.

"Thank you, Elder Susan. I'll not fail you. I'll cultivate hard and reach a breakthrough to the Master Realm," she gushed and promised ambitiously.

"I believe you. Always remember that you're our Holy Daughter and you're destined to play an important role in our sect. The Cyan Sect's prosperity and development is dependent on you and Holy Sons," Elder Susan replied, satisfied with Sissi's promise.

"I will, Elder Susan. I'll contribute all of my strength to our sect!" At this point, they were interrupted by a hurried knocking and a disciple rushing into the room.

"Bad news, Elder Susan. Steward Bessie and the other stewards who accompanied her have met with a bad end," the disciple gasped, positively shaking with fear.

Elder Susan's face darkened instantly. She jumped to her feet, radiating an overbearing aura.

"What did you just say?" she asked sternly, narrowing her eyes at the disciple.

Overwhelmed by the pressure her presence exuded, the disciple collapsed to the floor and felt a great difficulty in breathing.

Terrified, he thought, 'Elder Susan is really something. | can't even withstand the terrifying aura which her cultivation base emanates. She must be a dangerous opponent to battle." As Elder Susan calmed down and gained a firm control over her emotions and the resulting power aura, the disciple managed to gasp for air and struggled to help himself up from the floor. "They ...

they are dead," the disciple said in a broken voice, faltering with fear.

"Cwith me, Sissi. Let's go and see for ourselves," Elder Susan said imperiously.

She grabbed Sissi by the hand, and activated her bodily movement skill. In a minute, the two had disappeared from the hall.

A few minutes later.

A light appeared in the sky above the place where the three stewards of the Cyan Sect had lost their lives.

In the blink of an eye, Elder Susan and Sissi had landed on the ground.

Looking down at the shredded remains, flesh, and bones scattered about, Elder Susan immediately realized what had happened to the three stewards of the Cyan Sect. She was so furious that her face turned a livid crimson.

"Oh, no. Steward Bessie and the other two stewards were brutally slain here!" Sissi covered her mouth in horror, but then astonishment and disbelief replaced this on her face.

She knew that the three stewards had all been strong cultivators; the middle-aged woman, steward Bessie, in particular. Steward Bessie had been Elder Susan's personal disciple, and steward Bessie had followed her for years. Steward Bessie's battle force was stronger than that of most cultivators at her level. But to Sissi's shock, she had been brutally killed by Austin.

'The lad had only just reached the medium stage of the Sky Realm! He should have been more than outmatched in the battle with steward Bessie, ' Sissi thought.

She found this incredulous to believe. Yet, the evidence was plain to see on the gory ground.

'l have underestimated Austin. If he could take out steward Bessie so easily, it would certainly be a piece of cake for him to take my life, ' she thought and fear began to flicker in her mind.

Regret overwhelmed Sissi then. "Why did | mess about with such a strong cultivator?" "He has even taken my purple vital stone. He is really a fearless thief.

He is fantastic. But now, no matter where he goes, I'll find him and make him pay a heavy price for his deeds," Elder Susan snorted while looking sadly at the evidence of the brutally short battle which had occurred.

Elder Susan's face distorted in rage, and she clenched her hand into a furious fist.

Other members of the Cyan Sect had also joined the two of them at the scene of the carnage, including Tessa.

All of them stared at the blood and bones, and felt fear grow inside of them. They knew Austin was the murderer who had just left, and that he was not someone to trifle with.

Tessa looked at the debris and mentally complained, 'l warned him not to stir up trouble. Now he has made an enemy of our sect, and he is in grave danger for it.' "Post the brat's portrait and inform the whole South Continent that he is the one we're after.

And whoever destroys him will get a handsreward!" Elder Susan announced gravely.

With a wave of her hand, a light appeared in front of her and Austin's features were etched on it.

A disciple of the Cyan Sect recorded Austin's portrait with a jade slip.

Unaware of all this, Austin was tens of thousands of meters away from them. He was taking a break and rested in a valley with beautiful scenery while studying the purple vital stone in his hand. He could smell the fragrance of flowers and hear birds chirping all about him. It was a scene of peace and bliss.

Suddenly, he sneezed.

"Damn it. That old woman and the Holy Daughter must be speaking ill of me. I'll take my revenge though," Austin murmured, his anger deep and threatening.
