Chapter 1696 Stewards Of The Vasteras Holy Land

With a sneer, Austin stood motionless watching the disciples from different sects coming towards him.

Three thousand puppets under his control suddenly gathered around him.

These puppets were as strong as cultivators at the Divine Bridge Realm.

"Move!"

With a single motion of his hand and the sound of his commanding voice, the puppets heeded his order and attacked his enemies.

There were but a few hundred disciples coming from different top-tier sects. The puppets overwhelmed them as expected.

The worst part was that the puppets were difficult opponents because each of their powers rivaled that of the Divine Bridge Realm cultivator.

"Oh my god! What's going on? Who are these people?!"

"They're puppets! Where the hell did they come from?"

By the mere sight of the puppets, a majority of the cultivators who intended to take Austin's life ran with their tails tucked between their legs.

"I'm not letting any of you get away," Austin snorted coldly.

There was a sinister look in his eyes and a sardonic smile on his lips.

Under his command, five thousand demonic beasts showed up. They rushed towards the disciples from the three holy lands, the three prominent clans and some first-class sects.

Austin now had an army which was comprised of three thousand puppets and five thousand diabolic beasts.

Pursued by Austin's troops, the disciples from those top sects were killed one after the other.

Their terrified screams echoed throughout the square. Cries of agony and wails of dying men ringed through the ears of everyone who heard it.

They wanted to flee but failed miserably.

Caught unawares, they were easily surrounded by puppets and diabolic beasts before they could even make their escape.

Eight thousand puppets and diabolic beasts fought a few hundred cultivators. There was an enormous gap in numbers between the two forces. There was no doubt that the former was going to win the battle.

Moments later, each and every one of Austin's enemies had fallen, all except for five people.

The survivors included the Holy Heritor of the Ji Clan, Max Ji; the Holy Son of the Rudimentary Holy Land, Dave Huang; the Holy Son of the Arcane Holy Land, Stephen Zhou; the Holy Daughter of the Arcane Holy Land, Polly Yuan and the Holy Heritor of the Shen Clan, Belinda Shen.

"Austin, you cold-blooded murderer," Max bellowed.

Looking at the corpses of the Ji Clan disciples, he trembled with indescribable anger.

He was also in grave danger now. He had his hands full taking on more than five hundred puppets and a thousand diabolic beasts.

Even though he had cultivated the Dark Scripture

will not be made fools," said one of the stewards.

He looked at Austin as if there were daggers coming out of his eyes.

"If you cooperate, we might show you some mercy and keep you alive for a few days.

If you resist, I will torture you in the most wretched and miserable way possible,"

the other steward threatened, with an impassive look at Austin.

With their hands behind their backs, the two stewards released tremendous vital energy force on Austin.

Austin struggled to move; he felt like he was buried under a mountain.

Even his own vital energy stopped running inside him.

'Minor-perfection Realm masters are really something, '

Austin commented inwardly.

It was a relief to him that one of the stewards was at the preliminary stage of Minor-perfection Realm and the other was at the medium stage of Minor-perfection Realm.

'Austin is over!'

The crowd shared the same thought ever since the arrival of the two stewards of the Vasteras Holy Land.

"Screw you! You think you're strong just because you're at the Minor-perfection Realm? You even threatened me to destroy my cultivation base by myself.

I will destroy yours first!"

Austin bellowed abruptly.

After these words came out of his mouth, three figures that emitted golden lights turned up and stood in front of him.

They were the three puppets made of golden crystal that Austin had been rewarded on the seventh floor of the Slave Tower.

Each golden crystal puppet was as strong as a cultivator who was at the medium stage of Minor-perfection Realm.

Moreover, even masters who had reached the premium stage of Minor-perfection Realm couldn't destroy them.

In a split second, the three puppets charged at the two stewards from the Vasteras Holy Land.
