"No way!
I have a feeling that Master Austin is much stronger than us now.
If you don't believe me, wait and see.
You know how talented he is,"
Yulia said.
"I know he is a genius.
However, the Six Worlds of Reincarnation is a supreme universe.
We have been cultivating here for quite a while, which gives us some advantages.
No matter how powerful he is, there's no way he's stronger than us,"
the Snow-treading Old Man remarked, shaking his head disapprovingly.
A figure suddenly appeared in the hall like a ghost.
"King Tobian!"
They all recognized him at once.
King Tobian was the most prominent figure among the eight branches of pilgrims.
They all tensed at the sight of him.
Something important must have happened for him to come here in person.
"I have a surprise for you all. Guess who has come here?"
King Tobian said as soon as he entered the hall.
"Who?"
All of them had their curiosities piqued now.
"Is it Master Austin?"
Yulia blurted out. He was the one who came to her mind most as she always worried about Austin.
"Yulia, the entrance to the Six Worlds of Reincarnation is closed. How would Austin come in now?
It's only that you've been thinking about Austin all day. Stop projecting,"
the Snow-treading Old Man sighed as he shook his head.
Today in particular, Yulia had been talking non-stop about Austin. She had actually been bringing him
up from time to time. He found it particularly strange.
"Well. This time, you are actually right, Yulia.
It is indeed Austin,"
King Tobian answered before letting out a laugh.
"What did you say? Are you serious?"
They all jumped up, their faces full of disbelief.
"Seriously?
He is truly here?"
Yulia asked before she rushed over to King Tobian and excitedly shook his hand.
"Of course I'm serious.
Not only that, he has single-handedly subdued the entire livestock race's army.
From now on, we no longer need to hide in the Abyss of Darkness.
We can go back and live a good and fair life.
Why don't we go see Austin now?"
King Tobian told them.
"Absolutely!
I knew he was always better than any of us!
Wow, this is such incredible news!"
Yulia jumped up and down with excitement, clapping her hands.
"How is that possible?"
The others in the hall were too dumbstruck to take anything in.
But they knew King Tobian wouldn't lie.
"Is Austin really that powerful now?
Was Yulia right about him?"
The Snow-treading Old Man was stupefied.
"Well, that should be easy enough to prove.
We can go meet Austin and you can ask him whatever questions you want when you see him,"
King Tobian said.
After saying that, he left the warship.
The rest didn't wait to consider things.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
They followed suit.
King Tobian led his men to where Austin stood waiting.
It didn't take them long to reach their destination.
Austin immediately sensed their approach.
"Yulia, Heavenly Swordsman, Moon Taoist, Bowen, and the four warriors of the Heavenly Court. They
are all here.
I'm glad that they are all still alive."
Relief engulfed him at the knowledge.
He didn't care what they had been doing all this time. What mattered was that they were still alive,
which was a great relief to him.
"Great.
Those from the eight branches of pilgrims are coming.
You should prepare to welcome them!"
Austin said firmly, glancing at the governing gods of the livestock race with his sharp eyes.
"Yes, sir."
Although they were not happy about it, they had no choice but to do as Austin commanded.
They knew that they shouldn't provoke him anymore.
With Austin's strength, he might kill their entire army if they dared anger him.
There was no recovering after that.
Led by the governing gods, the army of the livestock race all bent down and shouted,
"We, the army of the livestock race, welcome the eight branches of pilgrims!"
The thundering shouts resounded through the skies.
"Well, that is just..."
The newcomers were all stunned at this odd change in behavior.
Although the eight supreme leaders already knew what had happened, it was still a shock to see it with
their own eyes.
"Repeat that a few more times,"
Austin said calmly.
"Welcome, eight branches of pilgrims!"
"Welcome, eight branches of pilgrims!"
the army of the livestock race shouted a dozen times more.
"No, Austin. I think that's enough,"
King Tobian said promptly.
"All right.
That's enough!"
Austin waved his hand, urging them to stop.
"Let's get out first. Once we settle down outside, we can have a nice chat,"
Austin said.
"All right."
King Tobian nodded in agreement.
Then he turned around and announced this to his men.
"Everyone, we will be going out now. We should return, and rebuild our home."
His glance swept over them slowly.
Everyone from the eight branches of pilgrims was silent for a moment.
Then they all shouted in unison,
"Yes! Let's go back!"
"We'll rebuild our home!"
Roars echoed through the sky.
They were all ecstatic over this incredible change of events.
Under Austin and the eight supreme leaders' lead, the eight branches of pilgrims left the Abyss of
Darkness.
The army of the livestock race followed Austin cautiously, feeling dejected.
The journey took half a day.
It was then that the eight branches of pilgrims were finally back to their original home,
the ones the livestock race's armies had been occupying.
As soon as Austin gave the order, these homes were returned to their rightful owners.
Austin asked the governing gods of the livestock race to lead their army to a remote and desolate
place. They were to settle down there for the time being.
They had originally planned to take their army back to their own continent.
However, Austin wouldn't let them leave just yet.
He had every intention of going with them to their continent later on.
"Keep an eye on them and don't let them run away,"
Austin said to the chaotic sky-devouring beast and the hundreds of primitive gifted beasts.
"Don't worry.
They won't be able to escape with us being around.
If anyone dares to try, I'll smash them into pieces!"
one of the primitive gifted beasts said loudly.
The livestock race trembled with fear upon hearing that.
The auras of their new custodians were enough to make them suffocate in terror.
After settling down, King Tobian brought the other seven supreme leaders to see Austin.
"Austin, we're so lucky to have you help us this time around.
I don't know how long we would have had to hide in the Abyss of Darkness otherwise," he said
sincerely. His tone was laced in gratitude.
