The young man from the Ji Clan thought Austin was nothing but an easy target since he was just at the Semi-emperor Realm. With a hand wave, he unleashed a palm of vital energy that dashed towards Austin.
Austin tried to talk things out with the young man. "Why are you trying to kill me?
I have nothing to do with these girls and I have no issues with your family either!"
he exclaimed as he stepped back.
However, the young man, who was at the medium stage of Emperor Realm, merely laughed him off.
"So what? You're nobody. I can take your life as I wish and it wouldn't even be such a loss. If you're lucky and get reincarnated, be smart. Stay away from my family,"
the young man said, in a tone of arrogance possessed by people who thought they were more powerful because of their status.
Since the Ji Clan was one of the three most prominent clans in the East Mainland, its members suffered from a superiority complex. They didn't seem to think that terminating a young man at Semi-emperor Realm needed to involve an ounce of conscience.
In the world of cultivators, power was everything. The strong ruled and set the rules, while the weak had no choice but to bend and follow.
Austin never intended to encounter the cultivators this way. He knew it wasn't a good idea to make the influential Ji Clan an enemy.
Bracing himself for the palm that was about to hit his head, Austin got even more enraged.
'This young man has no intention of letting me leave this place alive, ' he thought.
"You leave me with no choice. Kill me? Try it! I won't show you any mercy even if you're part of the Ji Clan!" Austin yelled.
Never a coward, Austin meant every word he said. It wasn't as if he was hopeless with the powers he had.
"Swoosh!"
He summoned the Spiritual Pot and directed it to his enemy's head. The Spiritual Pot broke into the latter's Soul Sea and swooped down into his soul.
The young cultivator who was at the medium stage of Emperor Realm turned pale in horror. That a young man at the Semi-emperor Realm stage could display such a powerful spiritual sense attack was beyond his expectation and imagination.
Flustered, he began gathering his spiritual sense to fend off the Spiritual Pot in his Soul Sea.
"Go to hell!"
Unfortunately for him, Austin was faster. He came to the young man in a flash and let loose his mighty physical strength to punch him!
"You'll regret murdering me," warned the young man at the medium stage of Emperor Realm.
He attempted to dodge the blow, but he was too late. With a thunderous sound, his body exploded, and all that was left of him were blood and shattered bones.
The explosion stunned the many cultivators of the Ji Clan.
"What's going on? Did that brat just kill Stanley?"
Three Emperor Realm cultivators from the Ji Clan ran towards Austin.
"How could this be? How could this young man take out an Emperor Realm cultivator in a heartbeat?"
The girls from the beast race who were casting defensive spells stopped in their tracks after seeing what Austin did.
One of the maids with a mole on her face was more shocked than the rest.
She had meant to come to Austin's aid as part of her promise to Peacock Princess to keep him safe when Stanley Ji attacked him.
But Austin had blown his enemy into pieces even before she realized it.
"How does this human possess such kind of physical strength? It seems he's just an inch weaker than us beasts,"
murmured the slim maid with a mole from the beast race, her mouth agape.
"You've just made a serious mistake, brat! You shouldn't have laid a finger on our member,"
one of the three Emperor Realm cultivators from the Ji Clan told Austin.
"Now your parents, relatives, your fellow apprentices, master... Everyone in your sect will die because of you."
"Screw your twisted logic! He started this. He tried to kill me. I just defended myself. I did nothing wrong.
