Chapter 1257 Get Ready To Run
"What are you waiting for? Do I have to take the Magic Sea Water from you myself?"
The white-d man pressed on despite the protest of the green-robed old man, and his gazed pierced
Austin like a sword.
Austin felt that he was surrounded by numerous sword aura which was slowly inflicting pain physically
and mentally. It was as if he was slowly being pierced from all directions by sharp edged des.
It felt like the white-d man could easily cut him into pieces with a flick of his finger.
The crowd stood there and ogled Austin as if they were watching an interesting show which was slowly
unfolding. They were quite curious and intrigued as to what Austin''s next move would be.
That white-d man was a cultivator of the Holy Realm, and his name had been well-known for
hundreds of years all over the South Continent.
He was considered as one of the best and the strongest cultivators of the entire South Continent.
Normally most warriors would definitely cave in and simply give up under such circumstances. Some
would even opt to suck up to him just to survive.
Yet Austin not only showed indifference, there was no sign of fear in his eyes. His confidence gave him
courage and strength.
"Sir, I found the Magic Sea Water all by myself with my own skills.
ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
I didn''t robbed or stole it from anyone. Is it really appropriate for someone of your status and power to
demand it from me just like that?"
Austin said slowly and humbly, which was theplete opposite of the manner and tone of which the
white-d man used earlier. His voice was filled with honesty.
Everyone was stunned by Austin''s reaction and words.
He was a mere cultivator at the preliminary stage of Heaven Realm, yet he was bold enough to
question a cultivator of the Holy Realm.
"Have you lost your mind, boy?"
The white-d man was suddenly infuriated with what Austin had said.
Whoop!
The space was instantly filled with the sword aura which gradually turned into actual swords and came
straight for Austin.
Austin waspletely surrounded by sword aura both visible and invisible, and every inch of his body
was targeted. There was no room for escape.
"That''s enough Baldwin! Where are your manners! He is just a young man!"
The green-robed old man waved his sleeves and a powerful vital energy force blew pass Austin, and
broke up all the sword aura in a sh.
"Julius what the hell are you doing?
He is not rted to you in any way, is he? Why are you defending him?"
The white-d man roared in anger. His eyes turned into slits and were filled with contempt.
"Knock it off already guys! Let''s just head over there quickly
before the demon race beats us to it."
Wace shook his head with disapproval and finally stepped in to break up the brewing fight. They
were like ignorant kids fighting over something so insignificant.
He then took off and flew towards the biggest ind in the center.
Although a couple of other cultivators also coveted Austin''s Magic Sea Water, they refrained
themselves from taking it by force as they were all well-established cultivators of the Prime Martial
World. Doing something so barbaric could tarnish their well-built images.
So they grudgingly followed Wace and flew away from this ind.
"Fine!"
The white-d man gave Austin a cold and piercing stare before he transformed into a magnificent
sword-light in a blink of an eye.
"You two should leave here as well if you want to live. Right this instant!"
The green-robed old man looked at Austin and was about to leave with the use his bodily movement
skill when a voice stopped him.
"Sir, please hold on for a second!"
Austin stepped forward and fetched twenty jade bottles from his Space Ring, which were all filled to the
brim with the Magic Sea Water.
"Please take these with you. They may be of use to you someday. You may just never know,"
Austin kindly said and then handed all twenty bottles of Magic Sea Water to the green-robed old man. It
was a sign of thanks from Austin for defending them earlier.
"These? Are you quite sure?"
The old man was quite surprised for a second. This boy kept it from the other cultivators just a while
ago, but now he generously gave it to him without even thinking twice.
"Thank you for your kindness, young man. With the Magic Sea Water, we now stand a better chance."
He smiled and then tucked away the jade bottles. It was as if the old man suddenly received a very
precious gift from a boy he hardly knew.
He nodded at Austin with gratitude and then took off towards the ind in the center.
The white-d man twitched for a second as soon as he left from the ind
because he detected with his spiritual sense that Austin just gave Magic Sea Water to the green-robed
old man.
"Little bastard!"
A killing intent instantly shed through his eyes. He was burning up with rage.
Austin refused to give up the Magic Sea Water to him despite his threats, yet he gave it willingly to the
green-robed man. It was as if Austin had pped him right on the cheek. It was so humiliating and
annoying.
"You little prick. I knew you are more than what meets the eye. As long as you are still in the South
Continent, your head is mine! Just wait and see."
The white-d man stopped for a second as he fumed with anger, and then he kept riding the sword-
light towards thergest ind in the center.
He knew there was nothing he could do with Austin right now, given the protection from that green-
robed old man. This fact infuriated him the most. How could that green-robed old man protect some
nobody?!
But he was also from the South Continent and he would definitely turn on Austin after all of this had
been settled. He vowed to kill Austin. No one who dared humiliate him could survive.
After a few minutes, Austin and the queen were the only ones left on the ind.
"Could the Battle Emperor and Annihtor the Demon Emperor still be alive?
If this were true, then they must have been fighting against each other for seven or eight hundred years
now. How could such a battlest that long?
And why did they chose to stay instead of leave the Nonuple Isles?
Are they truly trapped on the ind in the center?"
Austin''s curiosity peaked when he saw the two energies fighting against each other fiercely above the
center ind.
"But that seemed unlikely, as there is no force strong enough to contain two great masters of the
Emperor Realm at the same time and iste them in this area."
The queen shook her head.
"Do you want to go over there and check it out for yourself?"
Austin pointed at the ind in the center and asked the queen.
"Forget it. That ind is where the infinite aura is at its densest, so it is very dangerous for the likes of
us. Also have you forgotten what just happened to us?
If that guy from earlier is still mad at you, we would not stand a chance against him. I think we should
just follow the green-d old man''s advice and leave this ce while we still have the chance."
The queen disagreed with Austin. Her sound argument woke Austin up.
"All right then. Let''s leave the Nonuple Isles from another direction just to be safe."
Austin also gave it a thought and found it unwise to enter the ind in the center.
Given the look of that white-d man earlier as he left, he clearly held a grudge against him. And he
might kill Austin on the spot if their paths cross once more.
If they met again, he would probably find another excuse to cause trouble and kill him. Austin was well
aware that he was not strong enough at the moment to face the likes of that old man. It would just be
suicide.
Austin and the queen prepared to use their bodily movement skill to fly away from the Nonuple Isles
from a different path.
Both of them just drank their fill of the Magic Sea Water. The magic liquid of life ran through their veins
like a raging river, which made it easier for them to deal with and resist the strong infinite aura. This
helped them fly away using their vital energy force with ease.
"Ha-ha, you are absolutely right. It is high time for the both of you to leave.
But you will have to leave something in exchange for your safe departure."
A voice suddenly rang out which came out of blue, and then a figure emerged slowly from the void. It
was a fat and short man with a bald head, raging fires surrounded his body.
"Sir, what exactly are you talking about?"
The second Austin and the queenid their eyes on this man, they recognized him immediately as a
cultivator of the Holy Realm from the West Continent. He left earlier with everyone else but he actually
returned secretly.
"Get ready to run."
Austin got an ominous feeling the moment the bald old man showed up. It was obvious that he was up
to no good. And Austin soon realized what the man was after.
Austin knew they would not stand a chance against a cultivator of the Holy Realm, and that left them
with only one choice.
