Although both the maidens and Mike wished Austin could go with them to the Imperial City, Austin clearly knew that the Flaming Sun Valley and the Blood Wolf Team were trying every possible mean to hunt him down.
After some consideration, Austin decided to send two corpse generals to escort them. They would undoubtedly be safe under the protection of those two since no Mysterious Realm master could rival with their power.
Every Mysterious Realm warrior was a respectable leader in a sect or a group. They had no reason to harm them.
Austin planted an idea into the two corpse generals' Soul Sea––they should shield the three from any harm and at any cost. After that, he bade them farewell and went on his way with Violet.
Meanwhile, the maidens and Mike went on their way immediately that night, getting away from C Village––a horrible place full of corpses.
When they arrived at a small town the next morning, Mike hired some servants and Energy Gathering Realm warriors at a very high price.
He also hid the two corpse generals in one of the carriages before continuing their journey. . .
After Austin and the carriages had gone away, one corpse, among all the dead ones, stood up with blood all over his face. It was really terrifying.
"Lucky me! I was born with my heart on my right chest. Otherwise, I will be sent to hell by the fierce sword-light.
Who would expect Austin, a very young lad, to be so powerful? I am nineteen years old, and I have been chosen by the senior executives as a prospective elite to train.
Surprisingly, Austin, young as he is, is so powerful that even I cannot ward off one of his sword-lights. It is too embarrassing!
Well, I better go back immediately. I'll be rewarded if I report his trace to the leaders."
The corpse struggled to get on his feet while muttering to himself under the moonlight. He stared at the direction at which Austin had gone away.
It turned out that the man's heart was in his right chest. Though Austin's sword-light hit him directly on his left chest, he just blacked out and was lucky enough to escape from being killed.
He stopped muttering and left C Village like a ghost––a specter who was the sole survivor of the whole Blood Wolf Team in that place.
A couple of hours later, Abbott, who was sitting inside the headquarters of the Blood Wolf Team, wore a gloomy face. His eyes were full of anger and almost could be used to kill people.
For several days, the Blood Wolf Team had sent out most of their elites to hunt down Austin, but he vanished like a phantom to nowhere and left no trace at all.
Ever since Abbott was put in charge of the Blood Wolf Team, it instituted their rise to fame in the entire Violet Orchid Empire––to a point where it could be even compared with the five famous sects.
Consequently, Abbott garnered more and more respect from everyone in the Violet Orchid Empire. Even the high executives had to pay him proper respect by addressing him as Lord Abbott.
However, no one could believe that Austin, just a young disciple, had slaughtered hundreds of the Blood Wolf Team, including six Wolf Generals whose cultivation base was at the Earth Realm. It was a total debacle!
It had cost Abbott a great deal to train the twelve Wolf Generals to be elites. They were not only his subordinates but also his own disciples.
The casualty was a significant loss, but even greater was the Blood Wolf Team's fame and reputation.
Who would expect that such a young lad could singularly wreck the great Blood Wolf Team?
Recently, the news about the death of six Wolf Generals under the hands of a mere disciple spread like wildfire throughout the entire Violet Orchid Empire.
Every warrior in the Violet Orchid Empire was under the impression that the Blood Wolf Team was indestructible. But the turnout of the events said otherwise. After hearing the news, they thought of the team as an ephemeral group who was not, in any way, gallant anymore.
That was why Abbott was seething with anger and filled with hatred for Austin's gut.
"My lord, my lord. I have something important to report."
Suddenly an eager voice was heard from outside the hall where Abbott was sitting, uneasy as if a military of ants was rummaging in his pants.
Eh?
Abbott was displeased at the disturbance. Everyone knew well that they were forbidden to come in while he was meditating.
"Oh, it's you, Zachary."
Abbott recognized him at once. He was called Zachary––a promising young man who was likely to reach the cultivation base of the Earth Realm and became one of the mainstays of the Blood Wolf Team.
"My lord, I have a clue of Austin's whereabouts!"
Zachary announced breathlessly. He had ridden a horse hastily to get there and report the news as quickly as he could.
"Really? The place where is it? Say it!"
Suddenly, Abbott jumped out of his seat and seized Zachary by his collar.
