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! | 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, | 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.

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.
The sudden attack made the leader panic, and he rolled towards one side of the path clumsily. He managed to avoid the cold light by just a hair's breadth.
However, when he got up, he discovered that there was a bloody mark scratched on his chest.
Just as the leader of Blood Wolf Team was attacked, other wheels were also set in motion. Behind the tall grass on either side of the path, more than a dozen swords burst out, forming a net of light, and shot at more than a dozen members of the company.
Suddenly, accompanied by several terrible cries, five people were hit by that streak of light and immediately killed off.
"Who is this?" The leader shouted furiously into the forest.
A pair of young man and woman appeared in front of him, walking gracefully into the clearing.
The man was clearly Austin; the leader had heard his description, and the woman looked like a beautiful and bewitching creature.
"Do you really need to ask who | am? | am sure you already know that! You guys have been chasing after me for so long. You should know who | am already!" Austin had just struck out several swords and killed four or five members of Blood Wolf Team who were on the eighth level of Energy Gathering Realm. Although it could be said that there was an element of luck behind it since it was technically a raid, Austin was still quite satisfied that he had dealt such a powerful attack on his first try at Illusory Swordsmanship.
"You are Austin Lin!" The leader looked cautiously at Austin and Violet.
After the quick sneak attack by Violet, he had realized that her strength was clearly at par with his own.
Austin had also killed five of his men on the eighth level of Energy Gathering Realm. No wonder the five members who had been sent out earlier to carry out his assassination went strangely missing. Evidently, Austin had already killed all of them.
The leader stared at his enemy intensely. He had underestimated this boy until this moment.
"Well, Austin Lin, you have killed five members of the Blood Wolf Team. So we will certainly hunt you to the very end. As long as our team is active, we are not going to give up until one of us is annihilated completely.” The leader told him threateningly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAustin sneered and taunted, "Oh please! Someone else has already said that to me. Can't you guys be a little more creative! How come everyone from the Blood Wolf Team is so annoying. Fight if you want to fight. Kill if you want to kill. Don't act like a sissy.
Violet, let's do this!" Austin knew that the animosity between him and the Blood Wolf Team was never going to be resolved now. Even if he killed off this group from the team, there certainly was going to be another one coming after him.
However, since things had come to this point, there was no use in flinching. Besides, Austin had never been hesitant about killing off enemies.
As soon as he shouted the order, Violet's voluminous and delicate body sprang out like lightning. Her right hand suddenly lifted up and pulled into the void. With a menacing aura, an illusory black fox claw, which was more than 20 times bigger than her own body, appeared in midair. lts demonic power surged overwhelmingly on the team and they all felt pure, undiluted fear.
As soon as the black fox claw appeared, it slammed at the leader.
"Demonic beast! You are a demonic beast!" Feeling the surging demonic power on the illusory fox claw, the leader realized that the beautiful woman he was slightly smitten with was actually a demonic beast.
The leader of the Blood Wolf Team was after all a good fighter who had experienced hundreds of battles. He retreated backwards quickly and brought out a black whip from his paraphernalia. He managed to block the coming illusory fox claw with the twirling whip.
As soon as Violet and the leader of the Blood Wolf Team started fighting each other, Austin immediately utilized his Wind- commanding Skill and approached the rest of the team like a ghost. The Violet Royal Sword in his hand struck out like lightning, and it was a remarkable and precise Illusory Swordsmanship that he was unleashing now.
Suddenly, several shining swords knitted over the air much like fog appears above a misty river. It was so sudden and powerful that it was completely unclear which sword light was real and which one was fake. The real swords seemed to mingle and dissolve into the fake ones like a pair of white lights.
In the face of Austin’s Illusory Swordsmanship, the members of the Blood Wolf Team could not distinguish their actual enemy. All they could do now was to whip out their life-saving skills and protect themselves helplessly.
Even after that, within a moment, three or four weaker members were killed off.
The remaining six or seven were deeply frightened now, and had half a mind to flee. They felt powerless fighting against Austin.
His Wind-commanding Skill was allowing him to move so fast that they could not hit him at their own speed at all.
And his Illusory Swordsmanship had unleashed fifteen sword lights which had blinded them. It also prevented them from telling the real swords apart from the illusory ones. It was very hard to fight against such magical powers.
"Everyone gather in a group! Don't split up, and besiege him."
