“That’s right. The origin of this man is unknown. Perhaps he has a premeditated plan,” Bruce agreed gloomily.

It was rare for Lance and Bruce to be on the same side.

Their only goal was to kill Christina.

Otherwise, if they were unable to persuade the grand ancestor, their lie would be exposed.

Even if Christina was a genius, they would not have the slightest bit of sympathy. Everyone was very selfish in that regard.

“That’s right, please kill the two of them, grand ancestor.”

“If we allow such a rebellious person to continue cultivating their talent, they will definitely pose a threat to our Nolan family.”

“While he is still young, the best choice is to get rid of him quickly.”

The clan elders watched from the side, some of them Lance’s trusted aides, some of them Bruce’s supporters. They also opened their mouths to persuade the grand ancestor.

They hoped that the grand ancestor would kill the two of them.

The grand ancestor grabbed Christina by the arm.

After hearing the words of her fathers and the other elders, her face instantly turned pale.

How could they be so heartless?!

No matter what, she never thought that she would end up like this.

After the grand ancestor heard everyone’s words, he could not help but tighten his grip on Christina’s arm. His expression was hesitant as he pondered in his heart.

“Alright, that’s enough fooling around. I don’t want to hear any more nonsense from you guys. Hurry up and get lost.”

At this moment, Austin, who was standing at the side, finally spoke up, his voice indifferent. There was an unquestionable tone in his voice.

The room instantly fell silent.

Everyone’s gaze landed on Austin.

Augusto looked at the young man again and asked, “Who exactly are you?”

“Does it really matter?” Austin shook his head with a chuckle and continued, “What’s important is that you are now showing killing intent toward me and my disciple. I’ll give you three seconds to let go of her arm. Otherwise, you won’t need your own anymore.”

A blatant threat.

After hearing this, the people in the room held their breath.

“What a big mouth!” August’s old voice resounded throughout the room.

The arm that was holding onto Christina’s couldn’t help but tighten, pressing into her skin until she was in extreme pain.

“Three… Two… One…”

August heard Austin counting down. He did not want to let go of the hand that was holding onto Christina just to see what this young man had up his sleeves.

But when he counted to one…

He suddenly felt a boundless sense of danger enveloping him, causing his hair to stand on its ends.

His heart tightened, scaring him so much that he immediately let go of Christina’s hand.

In an instant, an invisible blade slid past his arm.

His clothes fluttered in the air, a faint trace of blood appearing on the skin of his arm.

August was so scared that his face turned pale.

He knew that if he had hesitated for half a second longer, his arm would no longer be attached to him.

Now, he had only suffered a small injury. That was already considered very good.

On the other hand, Austin was still expressionless, drinking his tea calmly.

It was as if the terrifying wind blade that had just been released was not from him.

Such terrifying strength!

At this moment, August finally knew that the young man in front of him was definitely not someone he could provoke.

He was an expert who was much stronger than him!

“What happened?”

“Why did the ancestor suddenly get injured?”

“This… This… This…”

The elders behind him looked at each other, completely unaware of what had just happened.

After all, the strongest of them was only a third-tier mage.

It was very difficult to comprehend such a high-level battle.

Moreover, the young man in front of them had already reached the Heavenly Emperor Realm.

Even if he was weakened due to the failure of his transmigration, he was definitely not someone that these ants could provoke.

They only saw that grand ancestor August had suddenly become respectful.

The murderous aura and powerful pressure that spread from the grand ancestor’s body suddenly disappeared as he became as tame as a kitten.

He bent down toward Austin who was sitting on the chair and said fearfully, “I was rude. Please spare my life, sir.”

“If you know, then get lost.” Austin glanced at August from the corner of his eyes.

August immediately swallowed nervously.

He did not continue with his intent on killing these two people.

Instead, he obediently retreated like a loyal puppy.

“Grand ancestor, we…” When the elders saw that August had actually retreated, they were about to say something but were forced back by August’s gaze that was filled with killing intent.

Feeling wronged, they quickly left the room.

Before they left, August gently closed the door. He was afraid that he would disturb Austin. If the other party suddenly attacked him, he would be finished.

In addition, it was only then that he noticed the alchemy furnace in the corner of the room.

A faint warmth was emitting from it.

It had clearly just been used.

“He’s also a powerful alchemist!” August was shocked.

That made sense. Christina definitely possessed magic talent because of the pills that this person refined.

‘If our family could also possess such methods… Then in the future, how could we ever be considered inferior to the other major families within this small town?’

Thinking of this, August’s eyes immediately became fervent.

If he had found out that Austin didn’t use the pill furnace to concoct the pill, but simply pinched it and made it into a perfect grade pill, no one knew how crazy he would become.

Everyone left the room and went outside. Feeling the cool breeze, they still couldn’t calm down.

“We’ll talk when we’re back in the family hall.” Seeing that the elders were about to speak again, the grand ancestor immediately stopped them.

“In addition, no one is to come near this courtyard in the future. Anyone who disobeys this order will be killed without mercy!”
