"Oh? Really?"
Austin said before he released his spiritual sense again to examine if this were true or not.
However, after a few seconds of perceiving and observing, he didn't sense any aura or features of the girl that were related to the nine-tailed demon fox race.
"Master, believe me.
This little girl's aura and features as a nine-tailed demon fox have been erased.
But I can still sense a trace of the original blood essence of the nine-tailed demon fox in her body.
The members of our race can recognize each other through our blood.
No matter how powerful the creatures of other races are, they can't sense it. That's why you don't see it,"
Violet explained.
"Her fox aura and features have been removed?
Is that even possible?"
Austin asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
"Yes. It's a secret skill of our race. If we are followed by powerful foes, we can perform the skill and disguise ourselves,"
Violet explained.
"I see. That's amazing,"
Austin remarked.
'Since it managed to fool me too, this skill must be super powerful, ' he thought to himself.
"I won't go with you,"
the panic-stricken girl said in a trembling voice.
Before the men could grab her, an old man in rags stumbled out of the tavern. He stood in front of the scared girl and stretched out his arms to protect her.
"Gentlemen, please let go of my granddaughter. We are just trying to make some money for supper.
Please show us some mercy,"
he begged.
"Damn it! Old man, stop bothering us.
If you don't want to die, get out of here right now.
We just beat you. Do you want more?"
one of the men yelled at him.
When the old man stood his ground, he swung his arm wide and slapped him.
Due to the impact, the old man stumbled back and fell to the ground. He screamed in pain, clutching his beaten face. When he tried to stand again, he realized that he couldn't.
On the sidelines, there were now many other creatures watching.
They were uncomfortable with what these strong men did; however, no one dared to stop them.
They knew that the men were from the demon snake race.
The demon snake race was a very powerful force in the Heaven Beast Valley.
If they stood up against them, they would die.
"Ha-ha! Little beauty, it's time to go. No one will come to your aid.
Come with us and we will have a good time together!"
The strong man who had slapped the old man stretched out his hand to grab the terrified girl.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Before his hand could make contact, red strings appeared out of thin air and broke into the Soul Seas of the strong men.
Then, the strong men's eyes filled with obedience.
They appeared to be listening to a voice no one else could hear.
"Yes, sir!"
they said respectfully at the same time.
"I'm sorry. We were being too rude. Please accept our sincere apologies.
We shouldn't have done this to you. We are scumbags.
But rest assured. We will never do such evil things again.
We are ashamed of ourselves. We don't deserve to live. We are committing suicide," one of the strong men said.
As soon as he had finished speaking, they all punched themselves in their foreheads.
Immediately, their heads exploded, sending chunks of skull and blood everywhere.
'What the hell is going on?
Did they just take their own lives? This is crazy!'
The creatures who had witnessed the whole scene were too shocked to say a word, but their minds were turning at an insane speed.
"Thank you! Master, you taught them a lesson for me!"
Violet said to Austin through her spiritual sense as she flashed him a grateful smile.
It was all Austin's doing, of course.
Those strong men had been too weak to be Austin's slaves, so he had no need to keep them alive.
Austin expected his slaves to be of a certain level now.
If they weren't at least divine gods, he wouldn't bother to make them his slaves. After this happened, the young girl screamed once more and ran to the old man's side, gently holding his arm.
"What happened over here?"
Just then, a loud voice echoed throughout the air.
A slender, middle-aged man with an indifferent expression flew gracefully and landed in front of them.
His eyes went straight to the bodies on the ground and a grim look filled his face. He turned to face the crowd.
"Who did this to them? How dare you lay a hand on our men?"
the middle-aged man spat, his eyes burning with anger.
A terrifying, cold energy burst from his body and instantly shrouded the whole street.
Judging by the energy he released, Austin knew that the middle-aged man was an ordinary premium-grade divine god.
'He is stronger than those men. This just got a little more interesting, '
Austin thought to himself as he stared at the middle-aged man.
"Tell me!
Who killed our people? Whoever it was, come out, kneel down, and take your own life,"
the middle-aged man ordered in a domineering manner.
