Chapter 908 News About The Ancient Master''s Residence
The Ghost Puppet Sect disciples realized that they had messed with the wrong person.
All they could really think about was how to escape from jeopardy.
"Are you nning to run away?" Austin asked with a piercingly numbugh. "Do you think I''ll let you
go?"
''They wanted to rob me. They most certainly are not good people.
I have no reason to consider sparing their lives, '' he thought.
In an instant, Austin drew the Lightning Sword, its de glimmering brightly in his hand.
Dozens of powerful beams of sword aura shot towards the robbers as he waved his sword in the air.
The thunder and lightning energy contained within the sword aura hit one of them with extraordinary
force.
Suddenly, the shrieks of men cut through the silence.
All the disciples of the sect including Markid dead with their bodies scattered in pieces. The water
running beneath them was colored with flesh and blood.
.. .
Austin surveyed the scene before him. Satisfied with his victory, he put his Lightning Sword aside.
His eyes fell then fell on the young man and woman cowering together.
''They seem to be in their twenties. They are at the medium stage of Imperial Realm.
The man looks like a simple, honest man.
But there is something lovely about the woman, '' he remarked in his head, studying the strangers.
All this while, the pair were intently observing Austin''s every move too.
His performance had left them dumbfounded.
They knew without a doubt that Austin could take them out easily.
"Sir! I have something for you. Please take these three blue magic herbs.
And in return, I beg you to spare our lives,"
the young man said abruptly.
He opened his palms to reveal the magic herbs. They were of a bright sapphire blue color. It looked like
they were emanating spiritual energy from within. Austin''s nose tingled against their fragrance as the
man brought his palms closer to him.
Although Austin looked younger than himself, the man did not want to take any chances.
The fact that thed was undoubtedly stronger than he was made him choose his words cautiously.
"So these are blue magic herbs?"
Austin asked in an indifferent voice.
He examined the herbs in the young man''s palm.
He was aware that these magic herbs were exceptionally rare. They were used to create some
powerful grade-six elixirs.
"What did you do to get into trouble with those people?"
Austin asked, as he moved the man''s extended palms away to show he didn''t want the herbs.
In that moment, Austin wasn''t too interested in the magical herbs for they were just at grade six.
"I will tell you everything," eximed the man.
"My sister and I were taking a break here and we happened to find these blue magic herbs.
After we picked up them, we were cornered by those people. They threatened us and tried to steal the
herbs from us."
His indignance was apparent to Austin from the way he spoke.
Austin could imagine how the situation had yed out.
"We were outnumbered. Besides, they were stronger than us. I intended to give the magic herbs to
them so that they would leave us alone.
But those bastards became interested in my sister.
They asked my sister to ''entertain'' them.
Fortunately for us, you came to our rescue in time,"
the man finished his story with a grateful sigh.
After hearing his story, Austin furrowed his eyebrows in disgust.
The misdeeds of the disciples from the Ghost Puppet Sect made him feel indignant.
''Ghost Puppet Sect is one of the most famous sects in the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom.
I didn''t expect its disciples to be so unreasonably cruel, '' he thought.
"Keep the herbs with yourself.
I don''t want anything from you,"
Austin said decidedly.
"But sir...."
the man muttered, looking surprised and confused.
''Resources are everything to cultivators.
No matter how strong they might be, they would try to hoard as much as they could.
But now thisd refused to take three sixth-grade herbs. Why?'' he thought.
"Sir, I..."
The man was at a loss for words.
''This boy is too powerful.
I must not displease him, '' he thought.
"These herbs are yours," Austin insisted again. "I won''t take them. I simply won''t," Austin repeated with
a little frown.
Impatient as he was, he didn''t get angry at the man for he understood what he was afraid of.
Austin had forgotten about the girl but she was looking at him intently. She noticed the lines of
frustration form across his forehead.
She raised her voice and spoke to her brother in a hurry.
"Brother, just do what he says."
The man nodded in agreement and continued to ce the three blue magic herbs back in his Space
Ring.
"Sir, are you heading for the Sand Ind to visit that ancient master''s residence?"
the man asked politely.
''Sand Ind?
Ancient master''s residence?
Does that ce really exist?''
Austin wondered.
"What do you know about the ancient master?
Tell me everything you know!"
Austin said eagerly.
The man was taken aback by the sudden change in the stranger''s tone. "I thought you would know
about it," he began to say.
"Two days ago, that legendary ancient master''s residence appeared above the Sand Ind, at the
border between Second Outer Ring and First Outer Ring.
But the door of the residence is yet to be opened.
All the cultivators who have heard about what has happened are on their way to the Sand Ind.
They all intend to enter the house to raid the treasures that lie within,"
the young man replied in detail.
"I see..." Austin nodded lost in thought.
He had heard about the ancient master''s residence and had always considered it a myth. He was
surprised to know that it was in fact, real. He could feel the excitement under his skin.
"Sir, it is said that the door of that residence will open within two days.
If you also want a share of the treasures, I advise you to head there right now,"
the young man suggested.
Austin gave the prospect a moment of thought.
There was a voice inside him that told him he had to go. Finally, he gave in to the voice and decided to
leave for the Sand Ind.
''Anyway, the two princesses have agreed to give me two bottles of the Magic Sea Water.
Even if I met them some timeter, I don''t think they''ll back out.
The door of that ancient master''s residence is going to open. I''m sure if I don''t go there, I''ll regret it
"Are you going to the Sand Ind?"
Austin asked the man.
"Yes, we are, sir."
the man replied, almost expectantly.
"How about we go there together?"
Austin proposed.
"That would be great," the man replied.
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
Both he and his sister evidently thrilled by this proposition.
There was still a long way to go to the Sand Ind and the pair knew that they would have to face
more perilous conditions.
Majestic sea beasts dwelled in the depths of the sea. They often emerged to the top and posed grave
danger to the lives of men.
They had only reached the medium stage of Imperial Realm. They knew they wouldn''t be able to cross
the waters without help.
They had witnessed Austin''s strength. Having a powerful man with them would keep them safer.
Hence, they couldn''t resist their delight at his proposal and made no attempt to hid it.
"I''m younger than you, so you can just call me by the name.
I''m Austin Lin.
What are your names?"
Austin asked the strangers who had now be hispanions on an adventure.
"Sir, I''m Jimmy Jin.
and this is my sister. Her name is Kimberley Jin,"
the young man replied after some hesitation.
"Nice to meet you,"
Austin nodded politely.
He then took out some pills from his Space Ring and gave them to them.
"Take these pills... We will head there after resting for a while.
Also, just call me by my name, not Sir," he added.
Austin discovered that they had sustained serious injuries during their fight with those Ghost Puppet
Sect disciples.
He gave them some of the grade six elixirs he had with him.
Those were the only elixirs he had for healing wounds.
"Thank you, sir... I mean Austin."
Jimmy bowed his head in gratitude while taking the pills.
When he had a closer look at them, he was shocked to the core.
''These are grade-six pills, '' he eximed in his head.
Grade six elixirs were as precious as life to Imperial Realm cultivators like him and his sister.
