Austin rendered himself invisible instantly, and also silenced his breath so that the five cultivators at the Major-perfection Realm couldn't sense his presence at all.
He himself, however, could clearly perceive them.
'How dare these losers try to take me on? The very idea is ridiculous!'
Austin thought with a sneer.
He hadn't attacked instantly since he wanted to find out who these assassins were.
Something seemed to be telling him that they hadn't been sent by the powerful sects of the Middle Pilgrim Land. Those sects could have spared more powerful cultivators for the job.
"Fuck this! What's going on?
Did that brat somehow find out we were coming and escaped? Loser!"
"That is a possibility at the least. But I can sense that he was here only moments ago; he can't have gotten far, can he?
Let's go catch him!"
The five men split up and dashed out of the room.
That was their second mistake. The first was coming after Austin.
While they were searching for their target in different places across town, Austin had also left the room and at the moment, with the Infernal Sword in his hand, he was gaining on one of assassins.
It had been several years since he had started to cultivate the Infernal Scripture. Time and practice had allowed him to master all the skills one would need to assassinate someone.
Under the cold moonlight, as the man looked around, a long, white sword suddenly popped out of thin air.
It swiped at the man's head.
And the cultivator fell down immediately, blood gushing out of his neck.
Fear was written all over his face, even in death.
"Something is going on over there!"
The other four assassins immediately sensed the precarious situation of their companion and rushed towards his location immediately.
They were all at the age of around twenty-five.
"Dammit! Must be the guy we are looking for!"
"There he... Hell no! Eugene is dead!"
The four men reached Austin's location immediately and surrounded him.
"Looking for me?"
Austin sneered at the four men with a playful smile on his lips. The white Infernal Sword in his hand was now crimson and dripping with blood.
"Brat, you killed Eugene, didn't you?"
one of the men shouted at Austin harshly.
Though young, all four of these men were at the preliminary stage of Major-perfection Realm.
In terms of cultivation base, they were evenly matched with Austin, so beating him together should be a piece of cake.
"Yes, I killed him.
Who the hell sent you here?
Answer me, and you might live,"
Austin flatly replied.
"You're way too cocky, you bastard!
Come on, guys. Let's kill him together!"
The four men exchanged a glance with each other and rushed towards their enemy.
"Huh! You're digging your own graves!" Austin rolled his eyes.
Then, he raised his hand, and three beams of sword aura dashed towards the four cultivators, though even a single one of them was wide enough to take on two men at once. The strong power of five elements hit them.
In a heartbeat, three of the cultivators were cut in half by the strong sword aura, with their blood and body parts sent flying across space.
Only one man remained now.
Appalled by the horrible scene, his teeth chattering now.
He was as strong as his three companions, but since they had been cut in half by Austin in an instant, he clearly didn't stand a chance.
He knew that the young man in front of him was too terrifying for him to handle.
"Well, now can you tell me who sent you here?"
Austin asked with a cold smile.
"Please man, I'll tell you anything. Just don't kill me, okay? It wasn't my idea. We were just following orders.
