The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 345 The Heartbreak Of Losing One's Beloved GrandsonAlthough 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! | was born with my heart on my right chest. Otherwise, | will be sent to hell by the fierce sword-light.
Who would expect Austin, a very young lad, to be so powerful? | am nineteen years old, and | have been chosen by the senior executives as a prospective elite to train.
Surprisingly, Austin, young as he is, is so powerful that even | cannot ward off one of his sword-lights. It is too embarrassing! Well, | better go back immediately. I'll be rewarded if | 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. | 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, | 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.
Zachary's cultivation base was just in the ninth level of the Energy Gathering Realm, while Abbott was already in the medium stage of the Mysterious Realm. Seized by Abbott, Zachary felt as if he was pressed by a huge mountain and was going to die.
"M-m-my... . |-I-lord." Zachary stuttered with his face as white as a sheet.
Hearing that and seeing his frightened face, Abbott set him free. After getting his breathing back to normal, Zachary then gazed at Abbott as if he was looking at an angry god. Zachary realized that if Abbott would kill him, it would take minimal effort for him to do so.
Then, he went on and told the story of how he met Austin in C Village.
Bang! Abbott was caught in extreme surprise.
"What? Another five Wolf Generals were killed by Austin?!" "That bastard dared to kill seven of my Wolf Generals.
This is the biggest humiliation ever! | loathe him and his guts! The hatred is so deep that we cannot live in the same world. Only one of us must survive! Guards! Summon the best four Wolf Generals and the three grand guardians." Moments later, they arrived at the hall, each with breadth as wide as the sea.
They were the four Wolf Generals, who ranked from first to fourth, and the three grand guardians.
They were the toughest and strongest ones in the entire Blood Wolf Team.
Moreover, they all had reached the Mysterious Realm and were undeniably skilled and powerful.
Two of the guardians were in the middle class of the Mysterious Realm, while the other guardian and the four Wolf Generals were all in the primary class of Mysterious Realm.
Including Abbott, the eight of them were the reason why the entire Blood Wolf Team rose to fame in the Violet Orchid Empire.

At that very moment, all eight of them, the most powerful ones from their team, gathered in the hall.
"Fellows! Last night, the fifth Wolf Generals was slaughtered by the bastard, Austin. He had a cultivation base in the premium stage of Earth Realm. Judging from this, Austin has become somebody--a rather strong opponent who had the guts to kill our comrades.
However, Austin is just a boy, about sixteen or seventeen years of age. He is not even in his twenties, and yet, he has already been so powerful. He must be a devil, a devil, indeed! The hatred will never perish; only death can take it all away. That bastard will definitely stir more trouble for us so we must hunt him down and never stop until his body lay lifeless on the ground.
As he is so talented, we cannot allow him to become stronger. Otherwise, he will ruin us all one day.
We can never let him cultivate more to be one of the strongest! It is now our top priority to assassinate Austin.
Next, we will send every one of the Blood Wolf Team, including us, to hunt him down!" "Additionally, send a message for Dwayne, the Chief Elder of Flaming Sun Valley, that Austin is heading to the imperial capital city. Tell them to ambush him along the way if they track him down. | wonder how he will be able to survive such siege!" Apparently, there were no objections among the rest of them. For a long time, Abbott had enjoyed the full power of his leadership in the Blood Wolf Team. What's more, his analysis of the situation was totally right and reasonable. . . .
Flaming Sun Valley, now on its spring season, was a quiet and peaceful valley. One could smell the scent of flowers and hear the soothing hums of the birds. The spring brought a magnificent scenery with nature at its liveliest form.
However, a heartbroken old man was burning joss paper in front of a lonely tomb, as if the air around him was gloomy amidst the bright sunshine of spring.
"Raymond, every generation of our house, only had one son. It has been five generations. You were the only heir.
| never thought that bastard Austin would dare to kill you, the only heir of our house.
My hatred towards him is a blazing fire which can never be put out even by all the rivers and seas in the world.
That son of a bitch made me go through the pain of losing my beloved grandson! Ah, | swear! | will hunt him down and tear him apart!" The old man, who was crying with great sorrow, was Dwayne, the Chief Elder of Flaming Sun Valley.
Around the same time, a disciple was rushing into the valley.
"Chief Elder, Chief Elder! We received a word from the Blood Wolf Team that they have tracked Austin's trace." "Really? They have found Austin?" "Well, well, well. Such great news. Ha-ha! Look at what fate brought you, Austin. | will definitely tear you apart!"
