"That's the only way for now.
We can't defeat the Purple Sword Sect alone.
Aside from their power, we can't forget that they are also backed by the Long Sword Sect!
There's no easy way for us to get through this!"
An old man couldn't help but sigh in frustration. The situation they faced seemed hopeless.
A deafening silence once again washed over the hall.
Everyone knew that what the old man said was true.
Just when everyone was about to lose hope,
on the horizon far away from the Red Sword City,
a dozen figures suddenly appeared.
They were none other than Austin and his companions.
With Maple and her brother leading the way, they made their way towards the city.
"The Red Sword City is right in front of us. It's our clan's headquarters,"
the young man said to Austin as he pointed at the city in the distance.
"So
this city is the headquarters of your clan.
You really weren't kidding when you said you guys were under heavy attack."
Austin sympathized with his companions when he saw the besieged city.
"Mr. Lin, how do you plan to help our clan deal with the Purple Sword Sect?"
Maple was still doubtful of the young cultivator. She wasn't afraid to show him that she didn't trust him.
She thought Austin was most likely to be a liar.
"Mr. Lin, don't tell me that you are going to save our clan by killing every single member of the Purple Sword Sect."
Maple's brother also couldn't stand his presence.
But his anger for the young man was for a different reason.
He didn't like Austin because he thought Austin wanted to take advantage of his sister.
After all, Maple's beauty was one of a kind.
"Well, to be completely frank, you're right.
That's exactly what I'm going to do,"
Austin replied with a mischievous smile.
"Let's go!"
With this, Austin waved his hand and strode forward.
"Let's go and follow our master!"
"Master, you are awesome!"
"The people of the Purple Sword Sect won't stand a chance against our almighty master!"
Dozens of slaves closely followed behind Austin.
"Well..."
Maple and her brother were completely dumbfounded when they saw Austin nonchalantly striding towards the Red Sword City. They looked at each other in confusion.
"Look at him. He doesn't seem to be kidding.
Is he insane?
No matter how strong he is, how can he defeat every single member of the Purple Sword Sect alone?"
Maple's brother was bewildered.
"He... He actually means it..."
Maple murmured, staring at the charging Austin's back.
"What should we do now?
Let's run away as fast as we can.
If he does go on with this ridiculous plan of his, he'll alert the Purple Sword Sect. If that happens, we're done,"
Maple's brother suggested.
"No,
we can't escape and just leave him here.
Mr. Lin came here to help our clan.
How can we think of running away while he fights for our people?
Besides, I always feel that Mr. Lin is not that simple.
I can sense that he is much stronger than us. He must know what he's doing.
Who knows, maybe he'll manage to surprise us,"
Maple said.
"Well..."
Her brother didn't know what to say.
