When Mindy learned that members of the Blood Wolf Team were chasing them, she could not help panicking instantly. She had heard rumors surrounding that team and was frightened.
"Austin, what do we do?" she asked worriedly.
"We have to do whatever we can. I'll take care of these guys first. You find a place to hide! I think this ancient well will serve the purpose."
Austin replied and started tiptoeing towards where the Blood Wolf Team was.
Mindy was only on the sixth level of Energy Gathering Realm. There was no way she could deal with the Blood Wolf Team, which meant in no way that Austin was going to let Mindy do so.
However, when she heard that Austin was going to fight the Blood Wolf Team alone, she was stunned and hesitant to hide. Although to the best of her knowledge, Austin was a fierce and a remarkable fighter, but the Blood Wolf Team was notorious for being bloodthirsty and ruthless savages. And it was said that their master was at the Earth Realm.
No matter how powerful Austin was, it would have been impossible for him to fight more than a dozen members of the Blood Wolf Team with only his physical strength.
At first, Mindy thought she had misheard Austin's intentions. But when she saw Austin's figure disappear into the grass and thorns like a ghost, she realized in horror that he really was going to fight the members of the Blood Wolf Team alone. She stomped her feet hard in the ground in exasperation.
"Why is that stupid boy so reckless!"
As soon as she got vital energy all over her body, she started following Austin. It was clear that she would most probably die this time; she was far out of her depth here. But she simply couldn't just go, hide somewhere, and ignore Austin's life. Although she was weak, she could at least be able to help Austin a little bit in the fight.
However, as soon as Mindy moved, Austin noticed her movement, which made him feel fuzzy inside. He suddenly stopped and turned around. When he noticed Mindy was really following him, he ran back quickly.
"Trust me, I can take care of them. And please ignore my being so blunt, but if you come with me, you will only drag me down!"
He told her decidedly. Then he used his Wind-commanding Skill to shoot himself far away within an instant so she could not follow him anymore.
Mindy stopped and stared at his distant figure in the forest. She bit her lower lip and felt annoyed by what Austin had just said.
'This guy is such a snob! How dare he treat me like a drag!' she thought to herself.
But in any case, however mad she might feel about Austin, there was no other choice and she still had to hide near the Mysterious Ancient Well with her breath subdued.
... ...
With his spiritual sense, Austin accurately located the members of the Blood Wolf Team.
When he had reached about a hundred meters away from them, Austin stopped moving.
Through his mind, he told Violet, who was inside the Illusion Bead, what was going on.
Hearing his story, Violet emerged from the Illusion Bead surrounded by a twinkling green light.
The two of them then moved stealthily towards the Blood Wolf Team deciding on a sudden attack.
Right at that moment, the leader of the Blood Wolf Team was guiding more than a dozen men in their chase after Austin and Mindy deep inside the valley.
Not a long while had passed since he had received information that Austin and Mindy were in that place.
The leader's cultivation base was at the Earth Realm and the men he had brought along with him were mostly at the eighth level of Energy Gathering Realm.
According to the intelligence he had received, Austin's cultivation base was between the eighth and ninth levels of Energy Gathering Realm, so he wasn't too worried about trying to hide the team's trace.
Had it not been for the demands his team was continuously making to find out the whereabouts of their five missing members, he would have declined to lead manhunt for a person as weak as someone in Energy Gathering Realm.
However, he had also gotten a little excited on seeing the beautiful female disciple of the Sun Sect who was with Austin.
It would have been worth it if after killing Austin, he could get a taste of this girl.
... ... ... ...
Happily leading his team on a march, the leader of Blood Wolf Team suddenly felt a sense of pressure against his body, and his acute nerve which had become sharpened over years of fighting suddenly alerted him that something bad was going to happen.
"Fuck!"
Out of nowhere, a rapidly approaching shadow revealed a shiny cold light which seemed to cut through the air, and mercilessly scratched at his neck.
