The Supreme God of Martial Arts

"I don't think anyone or any organization in the world would have the guts to kill the members of our sect. That's unacceptable!

Who would dare do this?

Humph, no matter who did it, we must find the culprit!"

the old man in black said in a very cold and harsh tone.

"That bastard has killed our people! I'm sure he got his extraordinary powers from the secret experiment that was done by our sect

ten years ago.

We must use all conceivable means to find him,"

the old man ordered the people around him.

"Yes, sir!"

All the people by his side responded in unison.

"Elder, | heard that Cassede Auction House will hold a special auction for rare Buddhist treasures in Smile City. Rumor has it that

the last item is the Sarira of Buddha Hawley.

Do you think we should go there and have a look?"

a middle-aged man stepped up and asked the old man in black with respect.

"Yes, of course. If Buddha Hawley's Sarira really exists in this world, | would like to take a look of it. It's so precious!"

The old man in black nodded to give his consent. He then waved his hand and gestured at his subordinates. Consequently,

everybody left in a hurry.

The capital city of HProvince was a busy region, just like other provincial capitals in the country.

At the heart of the province, there was a huge tranquil suburban district full of luxurious villas.

One of the most opulent villas there belonged to the Xu family. At that moment, its grand courtyard was packed with people.

"It is our honor to see you, chief and the two distinguished elders from the Heavenly Mountain Sect."

All the members of Xu Clan in the provincial city were gathered in the courtyard that day. Led by an old man, they knelt before the

three esteemed people.

In the middle of the courtyard, a silver-haired old man sat in a big white chair. An old man in gray robe sat on each of his side. Both

men seemed vigorous and had robust bodies. The three of them sat in the center as the local members of the Xu Clan kowtowed in

front of them.

Compared to ordinary clans in the world, martial arts clans paid more attention to the rank of status within the family. Thus, it was

natural for inferior members to display ceremonious protocols in front of their seniors and other distinguished people.

"Have you found anything about the bastard? How was the background check you conducted?"

the silver-haired old man asked.

He was Skylar, the chief of the Xu Clan in the southwest.

"Yes, we have. We have investigated him, and found out everything about him.

His nis Austin Lin and he lives in Peace County.

He lives with his parents and his elder brother.

In terms of socioeconomic status, they are considered poor.

We also found something weird about that young man. Ten years ago, he was reported to die in a car accident. However, he

returned a few days ago, alive and kicking, and looked nothing like a dead person!"

an local member of the Xu Clan in the provincial capital answered.

"Really? How can that happen?

That's unbelievable! There is only one explanation for it.

It is very possible that this guy named Austin had gone somewhere to learn martial arts during the last ten years.

After he had gained sufficient knowledge, he cback here,"

Skylar pondered.

"Humph! He is just a young man, but he has already reached the Expert Realm. That is why he is so arrogant.

He dares to make trouble with our Heavenly Mountain Sect, and is unwilling to treat us with respect. That is unforgivable! We must

teach him a good lesson, then he will learn who he cannot afford to bother,"

an elder from the Heavenly Mountain Sect snorted coldly.

"Now that we have figured out who that guy is, we can think of ways to deal with him.

| propose we go to Peace County.

Let's ambush him and kill him instantly!"

another elder from the Heavenly Mountain said with confidence.

"Okay, then we must do it without delay.

Let's go to Peace County and find that Austin immediately. It's tfor him to pay for his arrogance!

Humph, we shall not only get that brat, but also everyone in his family. They all must pay for his actions!

| hope this will send a message to everyone. We, the Xu Clan, is a force not to be reckoned with!"

Skylar said sternly.

Then, they left the villa and headed for Peace County.

At that time, a great auction was being held in Smile City.

It was organized by Cassede Auction House, the most famous auction company in the city.

The auction would commence in one of the busiest business complexes in the downtown area.

For months, the auction was publicized everywhere in order to attract wealthy businessmen and prominent martial arts clans. On

that day, the auction was solely for Buddhist treasures.

Austin cto the square of the business complex. As he walked in the entrance, he saw many fancy cars in the open parking lot.

He saw many brands of luxurious cars including Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Mercedes Benz, and many other famous cars.

'Wow, it seems that the people who will attend this auction are really affluent.

| think many precious things will be auctioned today, *

Austin thought.

He paid the deposit a few minutes ago and was issued a number card for the auction.

Then, he entered the grandly decorated hall. The foyer was designed over-the-top, which was connected by two half-landing

staircases towards the auction room.

The people in the hall were all well-dressed in the most expensive garments. They had many layers of clothing and jewelry. Aimost

all of them were upper-class.

In addition, he also saw a few people who wore martial arts practice robes. They may look strange compared to the people in

evening attire, but those men held their heads high and walked with pride. Their overall demeanor was awe-inspiring.

With his spiritual sense, Austin detected that all those oddly-dressed people were martial arts cultivators.

It seemed that the auction for the Buddhist treasures had not only attracted the rich people, but also a lot of martial arts

cultivators.

An old man in black walked into the auction hall, and was followed by more than one hundred people.

Austin glanced at them briefly and instantly knew that all of them were martial arts cultivators, yet he paid no attention to them.

By then, it was tfor the people to enter the auction room.

The venue was huge and splendidly ornamented. There were hundreds of buffet tables around the room. The tables served high-

end cocktails, delicious desserts, and various kinds of rare and exotic dishes. Everybody in the hall could take as much as they

liked.

Austin cthere for the Buddha's Sarira, and had no interest in anything else.

While waiting for the auction to start, Austin rushed to the buffet area to help himself with sfood. He then fetched a glass of

red wine, and lounged against a big velvet couch comfortably.

He paid no attention to the people around him.

All of sudden, he heard a voice.

"Wait a minute... Austin! It's you?!"

A woman's voice was heard, which was full of surprise.

Austin stopped enjoying his wine and slowly raised his head to check the source of the voice. His eyes fixed on the several people

standing next to him.

He first saw a fat man in his fifties. His hair was thin and was neatly combed on his scalp. He had a fubsy and oval face that looked

greasy. The clothes he wore looked luxurious and fabulous. He also wore a designer watch on his wrist.

A young woman who seemed in her late 20s, clung to him like a docile bird. She also dressed lavishly, and had a delicate make-up

on her beautiful face. She held a stylish designer handbag in her hand like all the other ladies who were present there.

Around them were several young men and women who were also well-dressed.

At that moment, all the people were staring at Austin with a confused look.

"Oh, it's you, Alice. | haven't seen you since..."

A complicated expression emerged on Austin's face. He looked at the alluring woman who was clinging to the old fat man's arm.

After a moment of awkward silence, he nodded and addressed her politely.

‘What a small world! | have never dreamed of seeing her again.’

Austin had mixed feelings as he thought of this in his heart.

He would never forget the young woman who was his first love.

She was his college girlfriend, and they had dated for three years back then.

After their graduation, Austin took her to the south. They cto Smile City with great ambitions, and planned to build their lives

there.

He planned to buy an apartment in Smile City and marry her afterwards. They imagined having babies and starting a family.

Of course, all these had turned out to be mere fantasies and were gone like bubbles.

Alice had dumped him because Austin was broke and she met the rich fat man and fell in love with him, or his money.

"Oh, my god! It's really you, Austin!

We haven't seen each other for ten years!

| didn't expect to see you here again!"

Alice cried out in an exaggerated tone after making sure that it was indeed her ex-boyfriend in front of her.
