Full Moon City.
On the second day, a disciple from Cyan Sect took Austin to the parlor as he was invited by Susan and Holy Daughter.
Austin was primarily driven to the parlor by his curiosity towards the Vital Energy Cleansing Pool. He was keen to know whether or not he could get a chance to soak in the pool. Hence he followed the disciple to parlor willingly.
Having had a good rest over the night, Sissi felt a lot more energetic and vigorous. She looked elegant in a white dress. Her hair cascading down her back to reach her waist, her eyes bright and her petite figure—she looked enigmatic as she stood there quietly.
She looked as if she had just walked out of the pages of a fairy tale. Her beautiful yet expressionless face exuded a sense of apathy and aloofness.
Her personality seemed to be conforming to the image of Holy Daughter in its totality.
Austin snorted at the sight of Sissi. Her pitiful and pathetic condition flashed in front of his eyes when she was abandoned in the wild begging for his help. But now, she behaved in such a cold and indifferent manner as if she was a queen.
"Your nis Austin, right? Sissi toldthat it is you that escort her home.
It is indeed praiseworthy that a young man is willing to give a hand to a stranger.
Out of gratitude, | will give you enough remuneration for your kindness.
Anyone, as long as he is one of the disciples from Cyan Sect, will never have to owe anyone who provided help. We are capable of giving any amount of reward as payment.
We have vital energy crystals, medicinal pills, elixir and all kinds of sacred weapons. You can choose anything you want." Elder Su turned her sharp eyes upon Austin and said in one breath in an freezing tone. She did not pause even for a moment to let Austin react to her words.
Austin kept looking at the frozen expression on her face as she spoke. To Austin's surprise, the old women didn't show any kind of gratitude or enthusiasm towards him. On the contrary, she left an arrogant and overbearing impression on Austin's mind. The tone when she talked to people was more like a senior commanding a junior.
Looking at Susan's attitude, it did not take Austin a very long tto understand that she had no intention to fulfill that promise made by Sissi. Austin's last hope was shattered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was completely unexpected by Austin. He had never imagined that a well-known sect such as the Cyan Sect would go back on their words. Moreover, the Holy Daughter was treated as the emblems of holiness, chastity and being true to their commitment.
However, now after having experienced the Cyan Sect's hypocrisy in such a brutal manner, Austin had no choice but to accept it.
However, Austin was not ready to take it lying down.
"Susan, | had talked with Sissi before that if | escorted she back to Elite Holy Kingdom, | could get a chance to soak in Vital Energy Cleansing Pool. You could ask Sissi if you don't believe it.
So, Susan, | hope you could make an arrangement to carry out the promise. | am looking forward to having a chance to enjoy the Vital Energy Cleansing Pool which is situated at Cyan Sect's headquarters." Austin went straight on point instead of beating around the bush. He had a mark of dissatisfaction and coldness in his voice as he spoke.
Also, he started coldly at Sissi waiting for her to speak up.
With a guilty look on the face, Sissi quietly lowered head to avoid eyes contact with Austin.
"Hmm, young man!" Suddenly, Susan raised her voice and snapped.
It was clear from Elder Su's demeanor that she was utterly dissatisfied with Austin. His attitude angered her.
As she was the Elder and held a high position in the Cyan sect, she had a high reputation not only in the Cyan Sect but even in the Elite Holy Kingdom. People paid obeisance to her with all their heart as a sign of deep respect.
However, this young man standing in front of her exuded a lot more confidence and a steady attitude with no sign of awe on his face.
"Young man, don't overreact. If you really think that you have received the so-called unfair treatment, you should know how to just move on with that. Sometimes, one should learn to keep a low-profile.
Anyone who is driven by lust and insatiability will have a bad ending.
Now, it is tfor you to leave here and you will get what you deserve.
Don't linger in Cyan Sect after you have taken your remuneration." Elder Su said impatiently. It seemed she didn't want to have a word with Austin anymore.
"Susan, what do you mean?" Austin couldn't wait to ask. He cast a surprised glance at Sissi and remarked, Sissi, are you going to go back on your words? | remember you swore in the nof the Holy Daughter that day" Austin interrogated bitterly.
"How dare you!" Enraged by Austin's words, Susan banged her fist on the table beside her. The chair which was made of ironwood, dissolved into a fine powder, scattering wood chips all over the floor.
It was said that any sacred weapon couldn't create a crack on the chair; however, Susan smashed it into powder by the fierce and strong force burst out from her palm in a blink of an eye.
The force was so strong that even the wood powder evaporated into thin air. The chair cdown squeezing the air in between into a forceful gush, and making a strange sound like water was boiling.
Austin marked in unbelievable amazement when a table made of ironwood disappeared after it suffered a heavy blow, leaving absolutely no trace behind.
Meanwhile, Austin could feel a strong aura emanating from the man who enveloped him. He felt breathless as if he was locked in a cage. Even the vital energy inside his body stagnated.
Austin was astonished by Susan's cultivation base even though the old women looked senile and weak.
Judging from the heavy blow, Austin becaware that the stage of her cultivation base had surpassed the Imperial Realm and reached the Master Realm.
Austin remembered the words of Tessa who had told him that any one of Elders in Cyan Sect had reached the stage of Master Realm.
It was the first tthat Austin had met a cultivator who had reached the stage of Master Realm. Austin dared not to move, leave aside even thinking of fighting against the old women.
It was obvious that Austin had no power to fight back Susan. His strength was too weak compared to the power of the Master Realm.
"Looking at your disrespectful attitude towards the superiors, | could easily kill you.
But considering that you had escorted Sissi home, | spare you this time. We would consider this to be remuneration for your contribution to Cyan Sect.
Now, get out here and don't forget this lesson. Young man, look before you leap and do not act recklessly.
Susan flapped her hand after she finished the words. It seemed that she didn't want to see Austin anymore.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKnowing he had no chance to soak in Vital Energy Cleansing Pool, Austin had no way but to leave from the place.
'I risked escorting your disciple back to Cyan Sect regardless of the fatigue after traveling a long distance. However, the treatment | get is sparing my life as a return. Cyan Sect is totally unworthy of its reputation.
It is my fault that | was tempted by Sissa's promise and escorted her hthat day.
"Sissi, you will regret what you did to me." After saying this, Austin left without any further delay.
Hearing this sentence, Sissi felt awkward and guilty.
Elder Su didn't say anything. She just squinted at a middle-aged woman standing beside her. Then, the woman stepped out.
"Sissi, It is ok, put this thing aside. There is no chance that you will meet him." Elder Su consoled Sissi.
Sissi nodded, looking kind of depressed.
"I will completely follow your arrangement when it comes to making decisions," said Sissi. . . .
Having no intention to stay in Full Moon City after leaving Cyan Sect, Austin stormed out of the place.
His eyes were seething in rage. He was aggrieved and cold.
No one felt good if he was treated like this, let along Austin who was of high self-esteem.
Since Susan's cultivation base was far higher than that of Austin, he wasn't sure that he would be able to fight against her. Hence, he chose to step back to avoid conflict.
Besides, there were many cultivators at the stage of the Imperial Realm in Cyan Sect. If he decided to fight, he would certainly suffer losses even with the help of evil ape and corpse demon.
So, Austin decided to eat a humble pie for the tbeing. But he swore to take revenge on Cyan Sect sooner or later.
‘This is the first t| have suffered such humiliation. The Holy Daughter of Cyan Sect, one day, you will learn a befitting lesson for your mistake! Anyone who humiliatedwill get severe punishment! Shon Cyan Sect, such a hypocrite of a sect!"
