Chapter 222 Austin Lin! It's You!
After leaving the shop and exiting the Pill Trading Street, Austin chose one of the many hotels in the area and checked in. He was going to take this opportunity to cultivate himself here.
As a cultivator, Austin clearly understood that the only thing he could rely on in this world was his strength.
Only a cultivator's strength could give him a solid base for living in this world.
Austin also hoped that one day, he could break through the Earth Realm and get revenge on the people who had attacked him
He had almost died three years ago when he was attacked secretly. He had been an idiot at that time and for three years, and had let almost anyone bully him. But no more! Austin simply could not calm himself down and the hatred in his mind bubbled constantly every time he recalled that painful experience. The suffering he had endured in those three years had become quite a bit of a problem and had, at times, interfered with his martial arts too.
If he could not take his revenge by himself and kill the people who had made the plan and attacked him secretly, Austin believed that he would never be able to feel at ease for his whole life.
Walking into his room in the hotel, he sat down on his feet. After a short while, he entered the state where one forgot everything about oneself and could focus solely on cultivation. The Golden Sun Scripture woke up and started running inside his body. All his bones and muscles seemed to glow with its golden light.
About four hours later, Austin woke up from his cultivation trance.
Just as he was going to go to bed for a small break, he suddenly heard some voices which attracted his attention.
"Marvin, are you sure that Austin Lin has come to Peace Town?" he heard a voice ask.
Austin heard his name being mentioned. At this ungodly hour in the middle of the night, who was talking about him?
His spiritual sense had woken up which meant there was danger. This was how he could listen in on the conversation next door.
"Yes. I am completely sure that Austin has come to Peace Town. But don't worry. This time we have a detailed plan to kill him and all the people are well-prepared. We will surely kill him this time. That is the only way for me to vent my anger and hatred!" another voice answered. It was, if Austin's guess was correct, Marvin Su.
"Marvin, is Steward Su coming to Peace Town tomorrow?" the first voice asked another question.
"That's right. Austin has ruined my plans several times now and I hate him so much. And these days, there is always something good happening to him and he is so lucky. Being a principal disciple, he is going to develop much faster and get more resources now. I don't know how I am going to stand by and see all these good things happening to him!
You can say that Austin is like a devil inside my mind. I am unable to kill him and unable to get him off my head. If that remains the case, I am never going to be able to improve in my martial arts or cultivation base. So, after I begged him again and again, my uncle steward Su, has promised me to take actions. Together with him, we are going to kill that guy secretly right here in Peace Town. This is not the Sun Sect, so as long as we don't tell anyone else, the Sect will never find out the truth!" Marvin replied and expressed his hatred for Austin at the same time.
"Marvin, I understand and believe in you totally. And actually I am in the same situation as you are. I was defeated by Austin in front of so many outer disciples and humiliated so much. If Austin is not killed, it is going to be hard for me to be relieved as well. So this time, I am going to help you to the best of my abilities to kill that guy!" the second voice replied.
Using his spiritual sense, Austin guessed that the two voices belonged to two familiar figures—Marvin and Billy. So they were here for him! When he was sure about the two voices, Austin felt furious. The two of them had repeatedly tried to kill him as if he was their sworn enemy. They had even hired and ordered others to chase and kill him. Austin could not stand it anymore.
He had had enough! He had not wanted to cause them any trouble when he had returned from the Grand Desolation Mountain as they were all from the Sun Sect. He had even not said a word to Marvin after defeating him that day.
However, now, the duo had actually followed him into Peace Town. They were still plotting his murder. This was too much!
It seemed that they were not going to let it go without killing him. Realizing this, there was no way Austin could allow them to live in this world anymore! How could he?
His eyes filled up with killing intent.
“Okay, you two! Since you want to kill me so badly, I will return the favor to you guys—today is going to be your last day!" Austin made up his mind.
Without any hesitation, he got up and moved towards the door. In a second, he had arrived at the window of the room where Marvin and Billy were staying. His finger moved and a little stone fell down on the ground, giving off a sound. Under Austin’s control, it sounded like someone was trying to walk inside on his tiptoes
Marvin and Billy, both busy hatching a plot to kill Austin, were suddenly interrupted by that sound
"Who's there? Who are you?" both of them roared in a low voice.
They got up and ran out of their room swiftly.
Under the soft moonlight, they saw a faint figure standing on the top of the house. Within a second, it disappeared.
Although the moon was shining that night, it was not bright enough. Also, it was quite far from the earth that night, so the two people could not tell who the figure was.
"It looks like a thief who wanted to steal but accidentally made some noise."
Billy ventured a guess.
"A thief? Trying to steal something? But if he overheard what we were talking about a moment ago, it will not be a good thing for us. Let's follow him and make sure that he hasn't. Let's find out who he is!" Marvin replied.
At that moment, Killing Austin was the only thing in Marvin's mind and he had been freaked out by Austin's strength. Otherwise, he would not have begged his uncle Johnson, the steward of Sun Sect, to come here and kill Austin.
And now, he was in a state of extreme nervousness and sensed danger in every sound he heard. He had become borderline paranoid. He never thought of the fact that even if the thief really did hear their conversation, he couldn't have found Austin since he didn't even know who the hell Austin was.
Marvin's hatred towards Austin was stopping him from thinking clearly. "You are right. Let's go and have a look. Hm! The thief really does not know his place if he dares to steal from us! I pity him if he gets found!" The two started their bodily movement skill and ran in the general direction in which, that figure had disappeared a moment ago.
As the two disciples ran after that shadow, they saw that figure from a distance once again. Seen from the back, it looked staggered and flurried as if it had sensed that some people were chasing it.
Seeing that, Marvin and Billy ran even faster. Soon it looked like they would capture the thief.
A moment later, they ran into a spacious place, where Marvin and Billy almost caught up with the figure that looked to be in a complete mess at the moment.
"Hey you! You have a hell of a lot of nerve trying to steal from us! Let me see how you escape now!"
Billy shouted as he stamped on the ground with his tiptoes. His vital energy force burst out all of a sudden. His speed became much higher in a second. In very few seconds, he overpassed that figure and stood in front of him surely.
"Haha, who said I wanted to escape?" They heard a voice suddenly. The figure was not afraid as they expected it to be, but was standing there leisurely. He raised his head slowly and a handsome face came into view, which was giving off a sarcastic smile and staring at Billy. "Austin Lin! It's you!"
