Chapter 564 Ghost Sect Returned


    With his spiritual sense, Austin saw the situation inside the Zhang n''s house. ''The Zhang n must


    have met strong enemies. When I knocked on the door, they must have thought that their enemies had


    returned, '' he wondered.


    Instead of knocking again, he jumped up, and like a giant bird flew over the high wall. Hended


    elegantly in the Zhang n''s front yard.


    "Who are you? How dare you break in!"


    "Call the n head and Mindy. He must be an invader! Perhaps a member of the Ghost Sect?"


    "Guys, let''s fight him together!" As soon as Austin appeared in the front yard of the Zhang n, a


    group of guards rushed at him.


    One of them ran towards the main hall to inform the head of the Zhang n and Mindy of the intruder.


    ''The house is quite heavily guarded!'' Austin thought in surprise.


    Armed with weapons, more than ten guards surrounded Austin with great speed. They attacked him


    without any hesitation, not waiting for him to identify himself.


    These cultivators were all only at level 5 or 6 of the Energy Gathering Realm. None of them was able to


    hurt Austin. Mildly amused, he decided to toy with them while the guard fetched the head of the n.


    Resting his hands behind his back, Austin sometimes stepped to the left and sometimes stepped to the


    right. He looked so casual as if he were taking a walk or even dancing. None of the guards was able to


    other.


    After a while, Austin got tired of the game and said with a friendly smile, "Guys, Mindy and I are friends.


    I bear you no ill will. Please tell Mindy that Austin is here to visit her."


    The guards had done their best, yet they were unable to even cut Austin''s clothes. They realized then


    that they couldn''t hold a candle to this young man.


    Upon hearing Austin''s words, they looked at each other with some hesitation.


    Mindy already enjoyed arge influence over the Zhang n. The n members respected her even


    more than Zachary, the n head. If this man was indeed her friend, then she would not take kindly to


    them harassing him.


    "You are Mindy''s friend?"


    one of the guards asked curiously.


    Before Austin could answer, he saw someone approaching from the main house.


    "Austin, it''s really you!"


    A girl ran towards Austin cheerfully. She was none other than Mindy.


    "Hi, Mindy. Wow, you are already at the premium stage of Earth Realm now. Seems like the dragon


    feminine constitution did you a great favor," Austin remarked in appreciation, as he assessed the power


    emanating from her.


    Before Mindy had even reached Austin, he had already noticed that she was at the premium stage of


    Earth Realm. What was more, her cultivation base was at its peak. She might even make a


    breakthrough and reach the preliminary stage of the Mysterious Realm at any time. All that she needed


    was to seize the opportunity once it presented itself.


    When Austin hadst been in Valley Town, Mindy had been at the preliminary stage of Earth Realm. It


    hadn''t even been a year, yet she was now at the premium stage of Earth Realm. Her cultivation speed


    was much better than that of most cultivators.


    In the Sun Sect, Stewards and some Elders with rtively lower cultivation bases were at the premium


    stage of Earth Realm as well.


    A year ago, Mindy had only been a lowly outer disciple of the Sun Sect.


    This meant that Mindy had be as strong as the Stewards and Elders of the Sun Sect from being


    merely an outer disciple within just a year! This was all thanks to her dragon feminine constitution.


    Of course, she still didn''t hold a candle to Austin''s cultivation speed.


    During the past year, Austin had been on a vast amount of adventures and had obtained many


    precious treasures. These opportunities had greatly enriched his cultivation base.


    Mindy, however, had stayed in Valley Town for the whole year. All she could do was cultivate on her


    own. Under these isting circumstances, it was truly amazing for her to have promoted her cultivation


    base from the preliminary stage of Earth Realm to the premium stage of Earth Realm in such a short


    time.


    Mindy stood in front of Austin smiling from ear to ear. Her skin was smooth and fair. She had a pretty


    face, slender waist, two long and elegant legs, and luscious hips.


    Ever since her dragon feminine constitution had been activated, Mindy had be more beautiful with


    each passing day. Austin''s eyes widened in shock as he stared at her. She certainly wasn''t inferior to


    Ivy and Sue in terms of looks. As he marveled at her flourishing beauty, he found himself attracted to


    her in ways that he had not previously been.


    "How dare you! Austin is our Zhang n''s savior. If it weren''t for him, our Zhang n would''ve been


    eliminated by the Li n. How dare you attack him!"


    Mindy scolded the guards with a livid face. She felt embarrassed by the rude reception which he had


    received.

    "Austin, are you all right?" she asked with concern written all over her face.


    Of course she knew that none of the Zhang n''s guards could hurt Austin. Still, she worried for him.


    Austin had saved her and her n. She owed him a debt of gratitude for that. But her feelings for him


    ran deeper than that. After Austin had left Valley Town, she had once returned to the Sun Sect to look


    for him. But to her disappointment, he had broken off all rtions with the Sun Sect. She had nurtured


    a burgeoning hope that he would return to her someday.


    "Don''t worry, Mindy. I''m great." Austin smiled, and then remarked with concern, "Your house is heavily


    guarded. Are you expecting trouble?"


    "Austin, it''s really you!


    Mindy, why are you just standing there? Show Austin to the living room and serve him a cup of tea,"


    said an old man from the doorway where he stood, leaning on a cane for support.


    He was Zachary, the head of the Zhang n. He had hurried over to Austin, as much as his frail state


    would permit, when he had heard the news of his arrival.


    "Hi Zachary. Don''t be so formal with me. After all, Mindy and I are friends. I happened to be passing by


    Valley Town. So I came here to visit her,"


    said Austin bashful at the warm wee.


    Zachary was still very respectful towards Austin. He led him to the living room and asked the


    housemaids to serve him a cup of tea and bring delicious snacks.


    After spending some time catching up on each other''s lives, Austin asked curiously, "Mindy, when I


    entered the front yard, I heard the guards talking about enemies and the Ghost Sect. What has


    happened?"


    "Really? You don''t know?


    The Ghost Sect have suddenly returned to the Violet Orchid Empire. They are very arrogant, and have


    even threatened to take over ruling the Violet Orchid Empire. No one is safe. Didn''t you hear about it?


    The members of the Ghost Sect can be seen everywhere inside the Violet Orchid Empire. They have


    given all of the sects and cultivators two options. One is to surrender and join the Ghost Sect. The


    other is to be killed.


    Although we are not strong cultivators, the Zhang n is the biggest n of Valley Town. In order to


    control Valley Town, the Ghost Sect must control the Zhang n first.


    Yesterday, the Ghost Sect sent an envoy to our n. He said that we must surrender to the Ghost Sect


    and join them. Otherwise, they will kill us all,"


    Mindy said calmly, though Austin could see the gravity of the situation in her tense bodynguage.
