'This is weird. Why did they come to the Hiding Area, instead of cultivating in Peace County?
And why are these people from the Novel Court attacking them?'
Despite the pressing situation of his family, Austin was utterly relieved.
He had been terrified earlier when he didn't know where they had gone, but now that he finally found
them, he could breathe again.
Austin was confident that no one on Earth could hurt his family in front of him.
'What's more, how did they deal with so many people from the Novel Court?'
Austin was curious about how they had fared earlier, so he didn't let anyone know that he was there.
Instead, he stood in the distance and watched quietly.
No one would notice him if he didn't show up on his own initiative.
"People from the Novel Court, you can leave now.
I know you came to my family just to find more information about my son, Austin.
If you can find him on your own, why are you still here? So stop saying you'll bring us to him!
Anyway, this is nonsense,"
Austin's father, Clement, announced from the hilltop.
It had been a long time since Austin heard his father's voice. At that moment, as he heard this, he
could not help but feel emotional. His eyes started to tear up, and he had to bite his lower lip to keep
from calling out to his family.
"Get out of here! If you dare to harass us again, I won't spare you!"
Austin's brother Chad said.
"Humph! It seems that you want to be punished!
If you dare to go against us, then you should be prepared to die!"
a wizard in a black robe shouted coldly, as he hovered above the hills.
He held a transparent crystal ball in his left hand, while a golden wand was on his right.
The black-clad wizard quickly recited a formula that no one else could pronounce, and then he pointed
his wand to the hilltop.
In that instant, streaks of black lightning formed from thin air and struck towards the top of the hill.
"Get lost!"
A woman's shout resounded, as a snow-white sword-light slashed out.
The sword aura looked as pure as moonlight, and it lit up the sky like a beacon.
It moved so quickly that an ordinary human would have a tough time seeing the movement.
And it flew toward the wizard, like a bullet out of a gun.
"No! You cruel bitch!"
The wizard stared wide-eyed at the incoming sword light, and he could not help but step back, hesitant
and a little bit afraid. The wand and the crystal ball in his hands glowed at the same time to block the
terrifying sword-light.
Boom!
The explosion was deafening, and the wizard was forced to retreat quickly. At first, he looked like he
was able to dodge, but it became clear that he was injured as he spat a mouthful of blood on the
ground.
On a closer look, the sword had left a mark on his crystal ball!
'Mother's swordsmanship has reached the Perfection Stage of sword intent!
She is a genius in terms of swordsmanship!
Besides, judging from her aura, her vital energy has reached the premium-stage of Sky Realm!'
Feeling the power of the sword strike, Austin was both surprised and pleased.
Of course, that sword strike could not harm him even a little, but it was inconceivable for the warriors
on Earth.
Moreover, when Austin left Earth last time, his mother's cultivation was only at the Earth Realm.
Now, she had become a warrior at the Sky Realm.
On a place like Earth, she managed to become so powerful by herself, which surprised even Austin.
"Watch out! That bitch's swordsmanship is very strange."
"Damn it! If it weren't for this bitch who had been holding on with her powerful swordsmanship, they
would have fallen into our hands already."
Angry shouts and more foul words were heard from the other men from the Novel Court.
When Austin heard this, his face darkened, and his eyes sharpened like steel.
And a horrible murderous aura spread out from his body.
"What is happening? Why is it suddenly so cold?!" One person looked around in confusion, as he felt
the sudden drop in temperature.
"It's suddenly freezing in here. I'm shaking."
"Do you feel that? For some reason, I feel like something horrible is stalking us. What could it be?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to find out! Let's catch this family and leave here as soon as possible.
This place is creepy, and it always makes me feel uncomfortable when I come here. It feels like
someone is hiding in the shadows, watching us..."
The thousands of people from the Novel Court all felt it when the temperature rapidly decreased.
A terrible chill enveloped everyone, and they could not help but look around fearfully.
Unbeknownst to them, this was Austin's murderous will, which he had accidentally released in his rage.
"Well, let's not waste time anymore. We need to strengthen our attacks!
And be especially careful of her sword strikes!"
an old man in a golden robe shouted.
This aging man had blue eyes and an aquiline nose, both of which were very typical western features.
He was a core senior of the Novel Court and also the chief commander of this mission.
When the others heard his order, they all pulled themselves together and took out their weapons, ready
to attack.
"Move!"
As soon as the old man gave the order, everyone started to move.
Thousands of people began to rush uphill from all directions.
At the same time, numerous attacks hit the hill, such as violent energy, hidden weapons, magic
treasures, hail, lightning, and even demonic phantoms.
More than ten missiles were also fired, seeking their targets in the hilltops.
"Well, in that case, don't blame me for killing you!"
Austin's mother shouted at them angrily.
Just then, a snow-white sword-light spiraled out from a tricky angle.
Its power was astonishing!
The soldiers were powerless to stop it, as it broke all the attacks like they were child's play.
Even those charging uphill stopped in their tracks, amazed by the sheer power that the sword-light
held.
When they realized that the attack was coming toward them, they turned tail and ran downhill as fast as
they charged upward earlier.
Still hidden from sight, Austin nodded with a pleased smile.
He finally understood how his parents and brother survived until now under the siege of so many
people.
It was because of his mother's sharp sword strikes!
Of course, it was also because her cultivation base was at the premium-stage of Sky Realm!
'Father and Chad are not so talented in comparison.
My father is only at the premium stage of Earth Realm, and my brother is at the medium stage of
Mysterious Realm.'
Austin could sense his parents and his elder brother's cultivation base through his spiritual sense, so
he knew that his mother was more powerful than the two.
'It seems that I have to find some time to help my father and brother improve their talents, '
Austin noted to himself.
As a divine god, it would be easy for him to help a mortal improve his talent.
"Don't be afraid of her, guys! There are so many of us. If we fight against that bitch together, there is no
way that she can hold on, no matter how powerful her swordsmanship is.
We can divide ourselves into two groups and attack her in turn. Don't give her time to rest. Sooner or
later, her energy will be exhausted!"
The leading elder rallied his troops desperately.
"He is right!"
the rest of them also shouted.
"Kill them!"
Then, the old man divided his people into two groups, attacking in turn and not leaving her time to
recover.
For a moment, the sound of killing permeated throughout the whole battlefield.
As soon as one group retreated, the other group rushed forward to take their place.
Streaks of snow-white sword-light continuously shot out from the hill.
At the same time, Austin's father and elder brother used their methods to resist as well.
However, their strength was inferior to that of Austin's mother.
She was their main fighting force.
Austin knew that his mother's swordsmanship was powerful, but the energy in her body would be used
up sooner or later.
An hour later, the old man burst into joyous laughter.
"Ha-ha, look! Her sword-light seems to be weakening!
Come on, guys! We'll win soon!"
However, his laugh was cut short when something unexpected happened.
A young man appeared out of thin air, and he was glaring at them poisonously.
As soon as their eyes met, the old man found himself unable to move.
An invisible force was suppressing his whole body!
