Chapter 655 A Thief
When Austin met the Imperial-Realm martial master from Wei n, he immediately released five
corpse demons.
In the blink of an eye, the Imperial-Realm martial master was surrounded by the demons.
"What the hell is going on?" he cried in rm.
He could sense from the terrifying pressure of the five demons that each of them was no less powerful
than he was.
"Kill him!"
Austin ordered.
Upon receiving the order, the five demons began to wave the dark paws of evil luster with great force
and then quickly rushed toward the man. Their long nails glowed silver and smelled of blood. Their
ws were highly toxic.
The Imperial-Realm martial master was no match for the five demons'' attacks. Although he fought
them, it seemed that he was about to lose the battle.
Suddenly, he used his vital energy force to hit a corpse demon, which was knocked against the cave
wall by the powerful force. However, it quickly got up and attacked the man again as if nothing had
happened to it.
The Ghost Sect''s method of refining corpses was a very powerful one. The bodies of all the corpse
demons were extremely tough and difficult to destroy.
For martial artists who were evenly matched with the corpse demons in strength, it would be difficult to
destroy their bodies.
When the Imperial-Realm martial master from the Wei n saw this, he couldn''t help but tremble in
fear, thinking, ''What''s going on here? I hit it but it''spletely unharmed! How can I beat them? I''ll
definitely die if they manage to hit me.''
At the thought of this, the man felt his spirit dete.
The five corpses seemed to detect that he was giving up, because they began to attack him more
fiercely.
In mere moments, the Imperial-Realm martial master was torn into pieces by the five demon demons
amid his pained and tragic cries.
Then, Austin recalled the five corpse demons back into the corpse nourishing bag.
In the past few minutes since releasing the five corpse demons, Austin hadn''t taken a single nce at
the Imperial Realm martial master from Wei n. Instead, he had been looking at the ordinary vital
energy crystals and superior vital energy crystals.
He knew that five corpse demons could definitely defeat a martial artist who was only at the Preliminary
stage of Imperial Realm.
"Violet, move!"
With a wisp of green smoke, Violet flew out of the Illusion Bead and rushed directly toward the vital
energy crystals. Together with Austin, she started to move the vital energy crystals into the Space Ring.
Austin didn''t ask Gnome for help, because Gnome would probably put the superior vital energy crystals
into its mouth as soon as it saw them.
Gnome liked eating all treasures filled with spiritual energy such as elixirs and crystals. And although it
had a small body, it ate a lot.
Gnome came in handy when searching for treasures, but if it was allowed to get its hands on the
treasures, it would eat them all.
Austin and Violet were collecting vital energy crystals at rapid speed when a fat middle-aged man
suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Hey! Who are you?" Violet eximed in surprise.
The fat man blushed and smiled. Although he was fat, he was very light and flexible on his feet. With
footsteps as faint as the falling of a leaf, he had managed to creep up on them unnoticed.
He walked around between the piles of vital energy crystals and superior vital energy crystals. Then, a
look of disappointment came over his face when he nudged the vital energy crystals with his foot.
"Damn it! It''s all rubbish! No divine vital energy crystal at all! If I had known this, I would have gone to
the northern wastnd instead of wasting my time here!"
He continued walking around the piles of vital energy crystals and then started to examine them one by
one.
However, all the vital energy crystals seemed to disappoint him.
Austin''s spiritual sense was very powerful but he hadn''t sensed the fat man entering the hall at all. It
wasn''t until Violet''s exmation of surprise that he had realized there was someone else in the hall
with them.
This fat man filled Austin with both awe and fear at the same time. He knew that the fat man was
definitely not a small fry.
"Hey! Who the hell are you?" Violet asked curiously.
She didn''t know this man, but it was clear from her tone that she seemed to think he was a good man.
"Who am I?
How long have you guys been doing this? How can you not recognize me?"
The middle-aged man looked at Violet and asked with a smile.
Then, with a hint of interest in his eyes, he said, "Oh! You''re a sixth level demonic beast. That''s
interesting!
So you demonic beasts have started to do this too?"
Violet was a little surprised to be recognized by the fat man.
With the enhancement of her strength, she had be more and more proficient in illusion. Whenever
she disguised herself as a human, it was difficult for ordinary Imperial-Realm martial masters to find her
true identity.
However, the fat man had quickly discovered her true identity, which showed that he must be a big
shot. On top of that, Austin and Violet couldn''t figure out what his cultivation base was.
"Hey! Who the hell are you?
Where are you from?" Violet asked with curiosity.
She didn''t feel threatened by him as she could see that there was no malice in his smile.
"I''m a pro in this business! You guys look so young. You''re just starting to do this? It''s okay if you don''t
know me."
As the fat man spoke, he stretched out three fingers and waved them in the air a few times.
"You mean you''re a thief?"
Violet shouted.
"Thief? Why are you demonic beasts so vulgar? I''m not a thief.
I''m a seeker!"
The fat man was a little dissatisfied.
Both Austin and Violet''s lips twitched in amusement as they thought to themselves, "That''s the same!
You''re a thief.
What a strange man!''
Violet couldn''t help smiling, but she quickly covered her mouth and didn''t argue with him. She knew
that his cultivation base could be very high, so she didn''t want to get on his nerves.

"You two should know that I''m an expert in this business.
My name is Cuinchy.
But you have such bad taste!
How can you collect these garbage crystals?
I wasted my time following you thinking there would be some treasure here.
What a disappointment!"
said the fat man.
"Cuinchy?
Is that your name?"
Austin thought that his name was very interesting.
