Chapter 658 A Deserted Mine

After giving Marwell all the vital energy crystals that he had stolen from the Wei can's mines, Austin chose another path and went back to the Wei clan's mine area.

Marwell retreated with his group after Austin departed.

"Where are we going, our mines or the Stone City?"

Michelle inquired.

"We have to find a place to hide for three days and wait for the steward of the Sky Sect to return, then we can go back home and turn in the vital energy crystals to him.

We can send a few guards to secure and watch over the mines. Currently, our top priority is to protect the vital energy crystals that Austin got for us. Then in three days, we can hand them over to the Sky Sect.

There is no vital energy crystal left in our mines.

Even if the members of the Wei clan attack our mines, they'll get nothing.

In three days, if the members of the Wei clan don't turn in the vital energy crystals, I don't think the people in the Sky Sect will spare them.

This time, it's the Wei clan's turn. They will be finished."

Marwell replied.

"Noted. Let's return to the Stone City."

Hence, Marwell and his people went straight back to the Stone City.

… … …

Under the clan head's leadership, all the members of the Wei family kept pursuing Austin.

To confuse his enemies, Austin took many detours and walked in circles until the people of the Wei clan could not tell whether they were going west, north, east or south. When he was sure they had gotten lost, he exerted his bodily movement skill and suddenly disappeared from their sight. He reappeared at the rendezvous point he had earlier set with Marwell.

In the beginning, the people of the Wei clan were keen in their pursuit of Austin. They would follow the traces of his footsteps, but after two hours of just going in circles, they realized they had lost their target.

The clan elder of the Wei clan led his men to look everywhere for Austin in the middle of the night but found no sign of him. Disappointed and unhappy, he led his people back to their quarries and entered the basement which was used to keep vital energy crystals.

The interior was empty and a half of the crystal stones were gone, except for their former clan head who was torn up in pieces and his b

s wings at a very fast speed.

"What's going on? Are there any living creatures in this place?"

Austin was a little confused and astonished.

He soon became clear on the features of the creature. It had four limbs, and it was two meters tall, and its wings were four meters long. The creature suddenly flew at a fast speed and came towards Austin from the deep within the mine.

Its claws were as sharp as a knife with a ferocious look in its eyes. It went straight and attempted to break Austin's neck with its claws, meanwhile; it was making some kind of weird buzzing sound which affected people's eardrums.

Austin activated his vital energy, and then a sword of vital energy appeared over his palm. The flames around the sword illuminated the dark mine, and the sword dashed towards its claws.

"Clang!"

The blade collided with the claws. The blade was as hard as gold and stone; the collision produced sparks everywhere.

Clump!

The next moment, the creature's claws were hurt by the vital energy sword and a dark green liquid gushed out from its claws.

'It has dark green blood, ' Austin exclaimed internally in surprise.

Confused as he was, he wasn't afraid of the monster in front of him. He had a feeling that the creature that had wings and limbs was easy to handle.

It kept retreating until it was a dozen meters away from its target.

It gathered strength and came at its prey again. When it opened its mouth, a bright, piercing radiance swept towards Austin.
