The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1609

"Yes, it was him who had saved me from the Ji Clan. Without him, I don't know where I would be now,"

the Peacock Princess answered as she threw Austin a grateful smile. Her eyes shone with much appreciation.

"Oh, I see,"

Boris uttered while slightly nodding his head after hearing her words. Then his eyes fell on Austin, too. It was as if he was waiting for Austin to do something.

Under the inspecting eyes of Boris, Austin had no choice but to come forward. He immediately went and gave a courteous greeting.

"I'm Austin Lin. It's a great honor to meet you here, Roc King," Austin greeted politely.

He knew that Boris was waiting for him to make a move to meet him, so he did. He instantly flew mid-air, saluting him in the distance.

"Pretty good! I admire your courage, young man," Boris commented.

He gave Austin an admiring look after uttering his praises.

Austin was just a young man with a low cultivation base. It was really courageous of him to come face to face with the Ji Clan—one of the three great families of the East Mainland.

"Humph! You are really a snipper-snapper. You are nothing but a low life," one of the senior reclusive elders of the Ji Clan sneered as he saw Austin's action.

His tone sounded rather cold and bitter.

Seeing this, the warriors who stood by to watch in excitement now gloated.

They considered what Austin did as a bold move. He dared to show up and talk to the Roc King in front of the two senior reclusive elders of the Ji Clan even though he had already offended their clan earlier.

He should have kept himself away from the Ji Clan's sight, but he didn't. Instead, what he was doing now was too daring. It would definitely provoke the clan even further.

It was obvious that the Ji Clan would never let go of the boy for what he did. Their power and forces were even beyond disputable. So, he might have a tough time when he stayed in the East Mainland.

The consequence of offending the Ji Clan would be beyond what he could bear.

"Hey, you two old men, listen to me," the Flood Dragon King suddenly spoke to the two elders.

"Don't let me know that any of your people bullies our Peacock Princess again, or you will face the wrath of the whole beast race in the East Mainland.

I swear,"

he warned coldly. His eyes looked threatening as he gave off a chilly aura when he spoke.

Hearing those words, the two senior reclusive elders got angry. Their faces contorted as they tried not to show the rage building up.

Even though they were unwilling to accept it, they knew that they had to. If they made enemies of all the beast race in the East Mainland, the outcome could be serious. They couldn't afford to risk it.

"Hmm! Well, you better behave yourselves too and stay away from us,"

one of the senior reclusive elders finally said with gritted teeth.

Although he didn't formally proclaimed his agreement, what he said meant that he had already accepted the Flood Dragon King's demands.

"And, this young man, he is now under the beast race's protection. Don't pick on him anymore.

Otherwise, we are not going to let you get away with it,"

the Flood Dragon King suddenly added as he pointed his finger towards Austin.

Upon hearing his words, the whole place fell on dead silence. Nobody uttered a single word. Everyone present in the crowd were completely stunned.

What the Flood Dragon King declared made them totally confused.

How could a great master of the beast race publicly declare to protect a mere human young boy?

Even Austin himself couldn't believe what he just heard! He was under the protection of the entire beast race!

"Don't be insatiable, Flood Dragon King.

Peacock Princess is the princess of your race so I can understand why you would protect her.

But what does this human boy have to do with you? And who do you think you are to interfere with the matters between the Ji Clan and him?

You are going way too far!"

one of the senior reclusive elders snapped. What the Flood Dragon King declared about the boy finally made him lose control.

As he bellowed the words, it seemed as if the whole sky also shook in rage. Dark clouds appeared in the sky, rolling and roaring.

Lightning streaks flashed through the clouds.

All of a sudden, a giant dark hand stretched out from the dark clouds. Flashes of lightning glinted around the hand, which formed a mysterious and bizarre picture.

The hand was so big that it covered almost the entire sky, including the sun. The whole world was engulfed in darkness.

Boom...
