Chapter 1736 Stacy Was In Trouble
It didn''t take long and very soon, the usherette came up to Austin in the lobby of the first floor of the
Deep Sea Commercial House, and handed him a Space Ring she had been carrying carefully on a tray
in her hand.
"Sir, all the superior herbs you requested are in here. You may check them if you like. Do you need
anything else?"
She respectfully asked Austin with a helpful nce.
"No, thanks,"
Austin replied in a polite tone, taking the Space Ring and unleashing his spiritual sense to check inside.
There were indeed all the level two superior herbs he needed to refine the Green Evil Pill.
He then turned around and left the Beyond City.
His n was to find a quiet ce to refine a small amount of Green Evil Pill at first. There was no
telling what the side effects of the refining might be and who might interrupt him.
What the... what?
The moment he left the Beyond City, Austin''s expressions changed.
He could sense that a dozen figures were following him secretly from a distance.
''That is so weird. Who are they? Why would someone follow me?
Did they see through my disguise?''
Austin thought to himself.
Austin didn''t entered the Beyond City in his real appearance but had disguised himself as amon
merchant.
This was because he knew what a well-known figure he was in the East Maind, and wherever he
went, people would recognize him and want to meet him. He didn''t want to waste any time.
''Well, in that case, I am going to y with you just for the sake of some fun.''
Austin felt that the people following him were drawing closer and he sneered. It was time to y cat
and mouse.
He started his bodily movement skill and rushed towards a mountain nearby that was isted from all
nearby cities. No reason to cause a citywidemotion, right?
Hended on a hillside with his hands behind his back, as if he had merelye out here for a walk
and nced in the direction of his followers with a sneer.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Very soon, more than a dozen figures rushed over towards the hillside as well and surrounded Austin in
an instant.
Now that Austin saw them clearly, he noticed that there were thirteen of them, all at the Divine Bridge
Realm; with three at the premium stage. Hmm, who would dispatch such a force behind him?
"Hah! I don''t know what Nelson Li was thinking about. The guy dispatched thirteen of us to catch this
nobody," the leading middle-aged manined and hispanions gave a chuckle.
He was one of the premium stage cultivators. Being fat and sturdy, there was a very air of impatience
around him.
"Anyway, let''s just take him down and not waste any time. I am getting thirsty for a drink ."
With a wave of his hand, the stout middle-aged man ordered the attack.
In his eyes, Austin was a mere child at the preliminary stage of Divine Bridge Realm and didn''t deserve
his attention at all.
"Oh, you want to take me down, huh?
Why? Who sent you here?"
Austin asked coldly in a demanding tone.
"Damn it, boy! Who do you think you are! You juste back with us and do as we ask. What makes
you think you''re important enough to ask us questions?"
The thirteen cultivators who had surrounded Austin were really angry and impatient when they saw just
how cold and calm he looked.
One of them waved his hand towards Austin.
But a wave was all that was written in his destiny.
Boom!

The earth suddenly exploded a few yards away from them, and five thick roots, which were slithering
alive like snakes rushed out in an instant. Like five flood dragons, they moved towards the cultivator at
the premium stage of Divine Bridge Realm at a rapid pace and strangled him.
"Argh!"
It happened so fast that the poor cultivator was unable to even think about dodging the attack. His body
was instantlypressed into a pulp and as the tress withdrew, only pieces of flesh and broken bones
remained.
"Go to hell!"
The rest of them, both surprised and furious, roared and rushed towards their enemy.
Austin sneered. Hands were still sped behind his back, and he showed no intention of making a
move.
Bang! Bang! Bang
Once again, the ground was constantly broken apart. Soil was sshed everywhere and dozens of
thick roots rose into the sky, rushing towards the warriors who still remained around him.
With the improvement in Austin''s strength, the demonic sky vine had also grown more powerful.
When he had just acquired this nt, he had only been at the Bitter Sea Realm.
After that, Austin had made a breakthrough and reached the preliminary stage of Divine Bridge Realm,
so the strengths of the demonic sky vine had also been enhanced several folds.
Right now, these vines were as powerful as a cultivator at the premium stage Divine Bridge Realm.
And since each vine contained dozens of branches, a single vine was equivalent to dozens of warriors
at the premium stage of Divine Bridge Realm. This meant that for Austin, dealing with these people
was a piece of cake.
"Argh"
Within a few seconds, almost every single cultivator was torn into pieces by the vines and nothing but
broken bones andpressed pulp remained.
The stout middle-aged man who was in lead was the only one left.
By now, his face was already pale with fear. He was staring at Austin in horror, who had nothing
apparently, and his whole body was trembling.
Dozens of thick roots, like dozens of flood dragons, were wandering around his body, as if they were
going to crush him within seconds.
"Now, tell me who sent you here? Or do you want a simr treatment?"
Austin asked him in a cold voice.
"Young hero, please forgive me. Don''t kill me.
It wasn''t our business to ask why when Nelson Li sent us over here. We just follow orders. That''s all."
The poor guy was almost kneeling down on the ground by now.
"Who is Nelson Li? Tell us clearly."
Austin threatened him again by making the vines draw near.
"Wait, wait! The manager of the Deep Sea Commercial House in Beyond City, Nelson Li. He sent us
after you, ordering us to bring you back.
Please spare my life. I am nobody! I just follow orders and it wasn''t my business to ask why."
The middle aged man was trembling with fear, and begging for mercy.
Nelson Li, the manager of the Deep Sea Commercial House in Beyond City? Why?
Austin was surprised.
Why would the Deep Sea Commercial House want him arrested?
Stacy was the one who had given him the token, so the Deep Sea Commercial House should have
treated him as a distinguished guest.
Did something happen to Stacy?
Was she okay? Austin got worried.
"I had the token of Miss Ren with me, which means I am a distinguished guest of your Deep Sea
Commercial House. So this Nelson Li should have treated me well. Why did he send you here to catch
me instead?"
Austin asked the middle-aged man.
"Please, man! I''m just following orders. I really don''t know about what actually happened.
But I do have a gut feeling that something big has happened in the Deep Sea Commercial House
recently. We are getting the feeling that it has something to do with some conflict among the senior
management of the Deep Sea Commercial House.
But as servants, we don''t know much about it, nor do we dare to ask why. It''s not our ce,"
the middle-aged man answered cautiously.
"Oh, what happened among the top managers of the Deep Sea Commercial House?
And wait! Isn''t Miss Ren the daughter of the head of the Deep Sea Commercial House?"
Austin asked.
"Yes, she is the daughter of the topmost leader. But something happened a few days ago.
It is said that two days ago, there was an unsessful assassination attempt on her life and she was
seriously injured. Nobody knows where she is right now.
The Deep Sea Commercial House is sending arge number of people to search for her,"
the middle-aged man answered.
"What?! I can''t believe Miss Ren was the target of an assassination attempt! You say she is missing?"
Austin was shocked.
"Yes, for thest two days. Her father is sending out arge number of people to search for her but so
far, people have been unsessful,"
the middle-aged man replied.
"I see."
Austin nodded.
"You can die now, by the way."
Austin looked at the middle-aged man and told him simply.
The next instant, dozens of those vines twisted around in the air like cobras, and the middle-aged man
was smashed to pieces before he could even beg once more.
Not in any circumstances would Austin have let the middle-aged man go back.
''So there was a conflict in the senior management of the Deep Sea Commercial House. Then Stacy
was attacked suddenly and disappeared.
Maybe they were people from inside the Deep Sea Commercial House who did that.
And since I am holding the token of Miss Stacy, so I am obviously a target too, which must be why
Nelson sent people to catch me.
So Nelson Li was Stacy''s enemy. Either since forever, or something came to light that broke bonds.
I need to go see him then.''
Austin decided.
Stacy was Austin''s friend and they had gone through several adventures and experiences together.
She was in trouble now and Austin needed to go help her.
He immediately turned around and headed back to the Beyond City.
