The entire group stopped in their tracks as Austin unleashed his spiritual sense to scan through the temple in the distance.
A black fog seemed to have fully enveloped the temple and the sound of people drawing out their weapons and magic treasures echoed out from within the fog.
Men wearing black armors surrounded the mountain god's temple.
Among the horde was an old man clothed head to toe in grey robes that were in the same shade as his eyes. Time hadn't been kind to him and he looked ready to keel over at any moment.
"Don't give yourself too much credit.
You lost to us in the last battle and I slew dozens of your men.
Several thousand people from your force died at my hands back then.
You're merely a descendant of one of the losers who managed to survive. How dare you use that tone with me?"
The mountain god's booming voice echoed out from deep within the temple.
"Humph! Talking big has no use.
You might have been stronger back then and won the war but we're the one managed to still survive and thrive.
Meanwhile, your force collapsed and no longer exist.
Cut the crap and hand over Austin's parents immediately.
Otherwise, I wouldn't mind crushing the remains of your force,"
the old man in grey robes coldly ordered.
'So they came because of me!'
Austin's expression became cold and filled with murderous intent when he heard those words.
Even Yulia and the four elders turned to him in fear upon sensing his rage.
"Even if I'm the only one left, it means that the Heavenly Court still stands!
The Heavenly Court will one day rise again!"
Determination filled the mountain god's every word.
Laughter burst out of the old man.
"Did you not know? You're not the only survivor of the Heavenly Court! Bring them here!"
He gestured at the soldiers surrounding him.
Several soldiers in black armor dragged three people to the front of the temple, each one already halfway to the grave.
They were skin and bones and no patch of skin was left untouched of blood and wounds. They were still bleeding. They had been obviously beaten up recently.
Disgusting liquid oozed from some parts that had been infected, a garish contrast to pure white bones that were left exposed.
A lifetime of suffering left a bloody picture on the bodies of the three men.
"The three of them are from the Heavenly Court. They were caught in remote areas of the Brilliant Kingdom."
A cruel smile appeared on the elder's lips.
"People from the Heavenly Court..."
Shock filled the mountain god's shaking voice.
In the next second, a figure flashed by and the mountain god appeared at the entrance of the temple, his eyes fixed on the three skinny men.
The three men stared back at him.
Both sides looked at each other for a quiet moment that seemed to stretch into eternity before excitement filled their faces.
"I'm Emperor Byron's subordinate, Marico Xiu."
"I'm Emperor Theodore's subordinate, Toby Cui."
"I'm Emperor Reginald's subordinate, Perry Sima."
Loud voices burst out of the three men as if they tapped into the last of their strength to speak.
"I'm Queen Siobhan's subordinate, Hogan Chang,"
the mountain god introduced himself.
They were obviously sharing their names with one another.
Once they knew each other's names, their hearts felt closer to each other and tears welled up in their eyes.
Each one of them used to be excellent members of the Heavenly Court and went to war many times to make great contributions to the Heavenly Court.
None of them expected that they would meet one another like this.
A mix of emotions filled the four of them.
"What happened to you? How did you end up like this?!"
Hogan Chang's voice shook as he spoke to them.
"We were sealed away for a long time.
When we woke up a couple of years ago, the people of the Divine Moon Sect found us and turned us into their prisoners.
