Chapter 744 Go To See The Old Man

"Young man, you seem to be in such a hurry leaving this place. Since you have come here, I suggest you to stay a bit longer.

I have seldom seen a young man like you with great potential. I am very eager to know more about you.

I will wait for you at the center of the city,"

Jim communicated with Austin through spiritual sense.

Austin was puzzled with the unexpected treatment of the old man.

"You want to see me?

I am just an ordinary young lad. Why do you suddenly want to see me, sir?"

"Truth be told, I have been observing you for the past few days. You are a very promising man born with extraordinary talent and potential. I want to associate with you.

So you better not betray my kindness, young man.

You can enter the city easily, but you won't be able to leave without my permission––I think you know that by now. Come and see me personally if you really wish to leave this place,"

the old castellan continued with his communication.

His words left Austin in a brief thought. Of course, he would not believe Jim's blabber about associating with him.

Yet, Austin was also aware that it was impossible to get out of the city by force.

Perhaps, for now, he would have to go to see the castellan and act according to the circumstances.

It was the last resort for him.

"Okay, then. I will come and see you,"

determined, Austin replied with his spiritual sense.

"Ha-ha-ha! Very outright! Come to the center of the city, and you will see a palace. I will wait for you inside.

By the way, bring your friends too. And don't worry. I have no evil intentions for them,"

Jim's voice was filled with bliss as he ended their talk.

Violet received the message too since the conversation between Austin and Jim was conducted by spiritual sense.

"Master, are you really going to meet that man?"

Violet inquired.

"It's the only way for us to get out of here.

I haven't thought of a plan, and nothing is working.

That man's spiritual sense force is too powerful.

I don't think we can escape his spiritual sense as long as we are in this city. Evasive strategy doesn't work here

aid I have to part with you.

I hope you three will not take it the wrong way and resent me."

Regret was painted on the old man's face as he watched the three castellans on the altar.

"Master, what do you mean?"

Tyson and Gordon were surprised as they were confused with their master's words and tone.

Jake turned pale with fright. He tiptoed on the ground of the altar, and tremendous vital energy surged out of his body, abruptly soaring and flying out of the altar in a flash.

"Jake, you are truly my brightest disciple. But it's too late to escape now."

Jim looked at Jake with an approving look.

As his voice faded, the scenery around the altar became unstable and changed drastically.

First, it showed a darkly clouded sky––lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled like a downpour was on the way. Then the next minute, it would be sunny and cloudless. After that, a boundless desert was formed, and desperate travelers collapsed one by one.

The scenery also projected a bustling street with vendors desperately selling their articles as buyers haggled. After a while, it changed to an evening with a clear moon and few stars. A scholar who was walking through the night was also shown. He was enjoying the flowers in the company of a beauty and reciting poems together as the breeze blew gently across their faces.

All kinds of changing scenery dazzled all the people present before the altar.
