The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1288

Within an instant, Austin, who was still checking the preparation in midair of the Trinary Star City, detected dozens of people speedily flying towards him.

The small team was led by an old man dressed like a Taoist priest. He was the former top leader of the Trinary Star City, who was known as a deserter in when the battle between the human and demon race was in a critical moment––with the former about to lose.

Austin, having carefully examined the other people behind the old man, could not help but be taken aback.

Behind the geezer were Elder Jason from the Thunder Sect and a few other elders from several sects of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom, such as the Sky Sect and the Magic Hand Sect.

Those people, just like the old man, had quietly escaped from the fierce battle just now.

To Austin's surprise, they didn't feel ashamed of their desertion and even had the nerve to return to the Trinary Star City.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At the exact moment, Clark, Brandon, and the seven warriors at the Primal Holy Realm, who had detected the elders' arrival, immediately flew beside Austin at an extremely fast speed. They were definitely worried about Austin's safety.

The old man, who dressed like a Taoist priest, was called Collin. His cultivation based was at the medium stage of Holy Realm, so he was relatively a powerful opponent.

The moment Collin arrived, he saw Austin suspended in midair as if he was the top leader who was examining everything below him. Colin was utterly surprised, and his face changed slightly while his eyes remained intensely fixated on Austin.

Soon, however, he became particularly enthusiastic about Austin. As a sophisticated man, Collin had sized up the situation and knew that it was not wise to fight the latter.

"Ha-ha, I believe, you're the Austin I've heard of so many times.

As a young man, you are amazing and outstanding at fighting!

I've heard that you have also contributed to today's battle.

Well done, young man! I greatly appreciate such young people with vigor and drive.

As the top leader of this Trinary Star City, I have always been very fair in giving rewards and punishments

Austin, the contribution you made today will be personally recorded by me.

Don't worry. I'll reward you accordingly."

Collin spoke clearly like a master who was praising his apprentice.

Hearing Collin spoke in a superior tone, Austin smiled lightly and said nothing.

He became quite aware of the reason why Collin suddenly came back to the Trinary Star City.

Collin had the intention to continue being the leader of the city, even though he was disqualified after his desertion from the last war.

After praising Austin, Collin saw that the former had a smug smile on his face without saying anything.

A hint of irritation crept on his insides as his eyes faintly became fierce and sharp if one observed them carefully.

Yet, his face showcased the opposite––a calm and collected facade.

Even though he had escaped before, he was still quite clear about everything taking place in the Trinary Star City.

He knew that Austin currently had a significant influence among the warriors of the city, so he had no intention of having a head-on clash with him.

His top priority was to take back his leadership as the supreme leader of the Trinary Star City. And once he regained that position, he would put Austin in his right place.

"Well, it's been a hard day for all of you. I know you're all exhausted.

Take a good rest and get refreshed. After that, we'll discuss the fight against the demon race," Collin instructed as if he was still their leader.

He then ignored Austin and led his men directly in the direction of the mansion for the castellan––the city's top leader.

At that point, the news of Colin's return had spread all over the city. Subsequently, all the human warriors fixed their eyes on Collin and Austin, obviously waiting for something spectacular to take place.

Meanwhile, Austin still remained silent, with his hands on his back and his face looking nonchalant.

He was actually waiting for the warriors of the Trinary Star City to clearly state their stand.

Because he was forced to be the top leader of the Trinary Star City under the collective request of its warriors, the warriors could not swim in two rivers now that Collin was back.

Clark was actually the first warrior who put forward such a proposal.

Now, Colin, the former leader, was back to drive Austin out of the position.

Austin was curiously waiting for the warriors to make a choice between him and Collin.

If they decided to have Colin continue as their leader, then Austin would naturally and immediately get out of the city in a huff.

Right at the moment, Clark suddenly stood out and said, "Eh-hem, Colin, please don't leave. I have something to say."

Finally, Clark couldn't keep his silence and knew he had to declare his stand.

"Hmmm, yes.
