"What a terrible joke! Since when did this place becthe New Moon Sect's territory? Isis, | am surprised that you would say such unreasonable words!" A voice laced with mockery emerged from the direction of the Tiger Mercenary Team.
People looked around to find the source of the voice. Subsequently, from behind the group of the Tiger Mercenary Team, two men stepped out.
One of them was a man of about twenty-five. He was dressed in black from top to the bottom. His appearance was not impressive enough for people to remember him. Instead, his hands were his most significant feature and would garner anyone's attention wherever he went. They were not just malformed or disfigured hands. Rather, they were about four times larger than normal hands. Strangely, they had the shape of a fan. They looked like giant elephant ears dangling from his arms.
The other one looked like someone who had authority. He was a stout and stumpy man. His skin was dark as though it had been burnt after being under scorching sunlight for a long time. Upon that his bright and piercing eyes twinkled under his thick, bushy eyebrows.
As they stepped out from the crowd, the sturdy guy was just looking at the women of the Iron Lady Mercenary Team with vindictive eyes.
Suddenly, a man spoke in a shrilly voice. "What the hell! Is that the bastard Austin? Man! You have the nerve to show yourself here! You remember how you ran for your life from the battle last twith your tail between your legs? Since you have cacross us again, don't think you will get a chance of walking out of here alive this time!" the man barked.
He was actually the Deputy Team Head of the Tiger Mercenary Team, Walter. When Austin cin sight, the unhappy memory of the past cpouring forth and he yelled at Austin with unadulterated hate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs Walter was yelling at Austin, another man's eyes were still on the women of the New Moon Sect. He was the Team Head of the Tiger Mercenary Team. After a moment's vindictive gaze, he began to speak harshly to them. "Look at this group of bitches! You have been sneaking around the Sunset Mountain and attacking my team members. If | hadn't noticed earlier, you would have brought great loss to my Tiger Mercenary Team.
Thinking what you have done to us makes my blood boil in anger. | won't sleep well if | haven't killed you all and avenged my people whom you have butchered.
How did you think that my Tiger Mercenary Team can be bullied by you idiots?" he spoke, his voice full of malice.
The man in black sneered contemptuously at them and continued in his scowling and vindictive voice.
"Which one of you is Isis of the New Moon Sect? If you have guts, show yourself and stop hiding behind your people like a sewer rat.
| have heard that you have an outstanding skill of killing people with your harp.
| really want to know what tricks you can play with that toy of yours today. Or is it just a group of lazy people who have nothing else to do, so they spread suseless, meaningless rumors? How stupid of them to put a simple harp into their tales! What privileges did you give them that they are so captivated by you and swoon over you?" he taunted dryly.
His hands were clasped behind his back. He stood erect, looking haughty and domineering as he spoke words of hatred and contempt.
"How dare you offend our leader?" a furious voice in the crowd called out.
Suddenly, the women of the Iron Lady Mercenary Team began to move and formed a circle. They began releasing their vital energy and prepared for an attack. The vital energy being let out, began swirling around and a massive vital energy force cloud appeared and darkened the entire area. It seemed as if nightthad arrived unexpectedly and abruptly.
After taking their position, the women started to retort angrily. "You coward! Who do you think you are? Who allowed you to shout here like a nasty crow, you ugly thing? Your Tiger Mercenary Team members are nothing but a group of seedy, disgusting cockroaches.
We can just trample you to death if we want." The sarcastic and disdainful voice of the members of the Iron Lady Mercenary Team infuriated the Team Head of the Tiger Mercenary Team further. He had never been so mortified by anyone.
"You bitches, when | have slaughtered you all, I'll see how you spit out those dirty words against me.
This place does not belong to your Iron Lady Mercenary Team territory to threaten me. Today, | will end your lousy, disgraceful life.
Nothing can save you now. But if you kneel down beforeand beg for mercy and forgiveness for the disrespect you have shown, maybe | will think about it," he barked furiously.
Just as his words ended and his voice died down, there was an enchanting voice of a woman that caught everyone by surprise. It cfrom the direction of the Lady Mercenary Team.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"How silly of me! How could | not recognize you from the beginning? You are the principal disciple Mark from the Ghost Puppet Sect, right? | didn't expect that the Tiger Mercenary Team would have the support of the Ghost Puppet Sect. Now when | think about it, it is clear why the Tiger Mercenary Team people have been acting so domineering and bossy lately." The voice caught the attention of the Team Leaders of the Tiger Mercenary Team. They looked over to see where the voice cfrom. They strained their eyes and necks, and looked hard through the cloud of the vital energy force. That was when their eyes caught sight of the sedan that stood behind them.
"The Ghost Puppet Sect is backing the Tiger Mercenary Team?" Austin could not help blurting out in wonder. He had least expected that the not-so-well established Tiger Mercenary Team would have the support of the powerful Ghost Puppet Sect.
The Ghost Puppet Sect that Isis had named was among the top five sects in the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom. On the basis of strength, the Ghost Puppet Sect was nearly at par with the New Moon Sect.
It surprised Austin that the Crystal Mine Mountain had caught the attention of so many superior sects and lured them here.
The sturdy man snorted in contempt. "Then you are not a fool as | thought. Your New Moon Sect may frighten other sects, but our Ghost Puppet Sect, does not get that stupid idea.
Tellhonestly, Isis, do you want to stay in this Crystal Mine Mountain? Do you want to keep all those precious resources to yourself? Has it ever occurred in your mind that you might need to consult the Ghost Puppet Sect? You should do that right away if you haven't thought of it yet!" Mark, the principal disciple of the Ghost Puppet Sect pointed out dryly.
Isis did not answer him at once. She was assessing the whole situation in her mind.
She could not deny the fact that the Ghost Puppet Sect was as mighty as her New Moon Sect. To make it possible for the New Moon Sect to take over the precious resources in the Crystal Mine Mountain, she needed stronger allies.
While she was contemplating the situation, Walter, the Deputy Team Head of the Tiger Mercenary Team suddenly walked over to the middle-aged man who showed up together with Mark and whispered something in his ear.
Upon hearing Walter's words, the man instantly averted his eyes and scanned the people around. His eyes fell on Austin and stopped. Apparently, Walter was showing him who Austin was.
