Chapter 2174 The Commotion In The South Mountain
In a span of 24 hours, the news about what happened above the South Sea City had spread
throughout the whole South Mountain.
The Zhao n and the South Marine Sect were both influential forces in the South Mountain. Both
sects were popr and prominent groups in the whole mountain.
Any news rted to these two great forces naturally spread widely.
After the word got out, everyone in the South Mountain was shocked!
The Zhao n lost a total of three hundred members.
The public also came to know about the young master who was killed in front of his father!
The South Marine Sect did not suffer a great loss,pared to the Zhao n. However, Elder Trina, a
master in the sect, was seriously injured.
But both of their opponents had escaped, safe and sound.
"Hell yes! This is so exciting!
Never in my life did I think that there would be someone sly enough dare take the brides from the Zhao
n in the South Mountain. Plus, killing the young master in public and taking his two brides? The
audacity!"
"Oh my god! Who the hell are reckless enough to provoke two super forces at the same time?"

"In my opinion, they are not reckless. They got guts, and they sure have the strength!
It''s said that the leader of the Zhao n had even taken out an ultimate magical treasure. Guess
what? They have an ultimate magical treasure too!"
"It seems to me that this young man may belong to a powerful n based on the outskirts of town.
Or perhaps he was also interested in the two female disciples from the South Marine Sect, so he
simply came here to snatch them!"
Cultivators all over the South Mountain were specting about the battle with shock and excitement.
The news spread like wildfire. People were talking about it all over the South Mountain. However,
another side of the story unfolded among the gossipmongers.
It turned out that the young man, who had taken the brides from the Zhao n and killed the young
master, was the fiance of the two brides! He did not provoke the Zhao n, but he came to save his
wives-to-be instead!
"The news came from the female disciples of the South Marine Sect. Then it must be true!"
Some people who empathized with Austin tried to convince the others that this was the real version of
the story.
"Well, it seems that the two brides really knew the young man who took them.
No wonder they were so emotional when they met. It turns out that their fiance came to rescue them
from the kidnappers from Zhao n!"
said someone who stepped forward and imed to had witnessed the scene.
The cultivators in the South Mountain were feasting on the news like wild lions. All of them indulged in
gossip and spected on what the truth was.
Meanwhile, in the headquarters of the Zhao n...
In the conference hall of the n, the n leader, a dozen middle-aged men, and several old men who
had the energy as deep as the cavernous sea sat across each other in the hall.
This hall was exclusive only for the high-level figures of the Zhao n. The few old men present with
strong auras were all reclusive elders at the Heavenly Grotto Realm.
They ought to discuss what happened in the South Sea City. Every single person in the hall was
outraged because the Zhao n had been made aughing stock in the South Mountain.
The Zhao n''s senior officials were furious in the past two days.
"So this little prick really came from the Prime Martial World?"
the middle-aged man asked.
"Yes. I went to Elder Helen from the South Marine Sect to verify this particr detail. ording to her,
he is indeed from the Prime Martial World.
Elder Helen said she had personally been to that small world known as the Prime Martial World, but
only by ident. While she was there, she said she took the two girls back to the Divine Continent
because she found the Crystal Buddha Body on them,"
a middle-aged man answered.
"Humph! I could not care less about where that little thief came from. He killed so many of us. The
Zhao n has been humiliated and I will not stand for this!
We must put all our efforts to kill this rascal at all costs!"
an old man sitting cross legged on the ground shouted in wrath as he opened his eyes slowly.
"Yes. Let us mobilize the full force of our n and start hunting down this thief all over the South
Mountain from now on.
Contact all of Zhao n''s allies. Ask them to send troops so we can kill him together!"
said another elder as he gritted his teeth.
"I agree with you. What happened is a terrible blow to the reputation of our Zhao n. It is an assault
against all of us and our allies.
Therefore, we shall respond. We must let all the warriors in the South Mountain know the
consequences of provoking the great Zhao n!"
another elder said coldly.
"Kill that young man at all costs!"
said the high elder who sat cross legged on the floor hall. It might seem peculiar to see the old man sit
the way he did. However, when these people in the hall looked at him, they all revered him and
asionally gazed at him with a sense of awe.
"Okay. Since we are all in agreement, I will use all resource of the Zhao n to hunt that person down!
Besides, I have already got in touch with the killers of the ughtering Sect. They can help with our
pursuit of that young man. They will definitely kill him at ourmand,"
said the leader of the Zhao n. At the thought of the little guy who killed his beloved son, his eyes
burned with great hatred.
Austin would be shocked if he heard what had been said.
He would not have thought that there were assassins from the ughtering Sect in the South
Mountain!
Meanwhile, inside the headquarters of the South Marine Sect.
"No. I won''t let him off the hook as he dared to ruin my n!
Let us all go out to find and kill that bastard! That is the only way for us to restore our peace!"
In the middle of a grand and magnificent hall, the sect leader of the South Marine Sect coldly delivered
hermand.
Without any sign of hesitation she gave an order and sent many elite disciples of the South Marine
Sect out to look for Austin.
At this point several masters at the Heavenly Grotto Realm had reached out to the South Marine Sect,
to offer help with the sect''s agenda.
Both the Zhao n and the South Marine Sect sent their people to hunt for Austin. They exhausted all
of their organizations'' capacity.
It was not surprising that sects closely tied with the Zhao n and the South Marine Sect also sent
people to help in the pursuit for Austin.
Both Zhao n and the South Marine Sect had great influence in the South Mountain.
Soon enough, word about the hunt was spread throughout the South Mountain. The news made
everyone nervous.
Everyone was hell-bent to find and kill Austin.
Turmoil grew in the South Mountain once again.
Meanwhile, at a secluded ce in the outskirt of the South Mountain, there was a grain of peculiar kind
of dust on a low mountain range.
It was actually the ve Tower.
As a magic treasure, the size of the ve Tower could be erged or shrunk ordingly.
In the ninth floor of this ve Tower hid a secret room, Ivy and Sue were sitting right next to Austin.
The sight of three lovers having a chitchat was a pleasant and sweet picture.
The three of them had not left each other''s side for two days.
Austin told the girls what he had been through from the beginning to the end, not missing a single detail
of it. All the while, Ivy and Sue listened patiently.
Ivy and Sue felt amazed with Austin''s bizarre and tortuous experiences in the past few years. Some
parts were too hrious that they cried themselves throughugher.
Austin then remembered to ask about what had happened to Ivy and Sue, and why they were forced by
Elder Helen from the South Marine Sect to go to this ce. He was also curious about what happened
after they came to the South Mountain. Austin was grateful that he understood what had happened to
Ivy and Sue in detail.
The three of them had been filled with bliss in this reunion they had during the past two days.
Austin, of course, shared his rtionship with Caroline to his two fiancees.
"What? You mean, you finally got the queen of the evil shadow race!
Tell me, how did you do that?"
Sue said as she seemed to be very interested. She pped Austin on his arm yfully and asked him
for more details.
"I didn''t expect you to be good at picking up girls."
Ivy also looked gazed at Austin with her beautiful eyes. Like Sue, she kept asking Austin what had
happened.
