The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 564 Ghost Sect Returned

With his spiritual sense, Austin saw the situation inside the Zhang Clan's house. “The Zhang Clan must have met strong enemies. When I knocked on the door, they must have thought that their enemies had returned, ' he wondered.

Instead of knocking again, he jumped up, and like a giant bird flew over the high wall. He landed elegantly in the Zhang Clan's front yard.

"Who are you? How dare you break in!"

"Call the clan head and Mindy. He must be an invader! Perhaps a member of the Ghost Sect?"

"Guys, let's fight him together!” As soon as Austin appeared in the front yard of the Zhang Clan, a group of guards rushed at him.

One of them ran towards the main hall to inform the head of the Zhang Clan and Mindy of the intruder.

“The house is quite heavily guarded!" Austin thought in surprise.

Armed with weapons, more than ten guards surrounded Austin with great speed. They attacked him without any hesitation, not waiting for him to identify himself.

These cultivators were all only at level 5 or 6 of the Energy Gathering Realm. None of them was able to hurt Austin. Mildly amused, he decided to toy with them while the guard fetched the head of the clan. Resting his hands behind his back, Austin sometimes stepped to the left and sometimes stepped to the right. He looked so casual as if he were taking a walk or even dancing. None of the guards was able to land his weapon on Austin. He moved in a blur between them and they ended up falling over each other.

After a while, Austin got tired of the game and said with a friendly smile, "Guys, Mindy and I are friends. I bear you no ill will. Please tell Mindy that Austin is here to visit her.”

The guards had done their best, yet they were unable to even cut Austin's clothes. They realized then that they couldn't hold a candle to this young man.

Upon hearing Austin's words, they looked at each other with some hesitation.

Mindy already enjoyed a large influence over the Zhang Clan. The clan members respected her even more than Zachary, the clan head. If this man was indeed her friend, then she would not take kindly to them harassing him.

"You are Mindy's friend?"

one of the guards asked curiously.

Before Austin could answer, he saw someone approaching from the main house.

"Austin, it's really you!"

A girl ran towards Austin cheerfully. She was none other than Mindy. "Hi, Mindy. Wow, you are already at the premium stage of Earth Realm now. Seems like the dragon feminine constitution did you a great favor,” Austin remarked in appreciation, as he assessed the power emanating from her.

Before Mindy had even reached Austin, he had already noticed that she was at the premium stage of Earth Realm. What was more, her cultivation base was at its peak. She might even make a breakthrough and reach the preliminary stage of the Mysterious Realm at any time. All that she needed was to seize the opportunity once it presented itself.

When Austin had last been in Valley Town, Mindy had been at the preliminary stage of Earth Realm. It hadn't even been a year, yet she was now at the premium stage of Earth Realm. Her cultivation speed was much better than that of most cultivators.

In the Sun Sect, Stewards and some Elders with relatively lower cultivation bases were at the premium stage of Earth Realm as well.

A year ago, Mindy had only been a lowly outer disciple of the Sun Sect. This meant that Mindy had become as strong as the Stewards and Elders of the Sun Sect from being merely an outer disciple within just a year! This was all thanks to her dragon feminine constitution.

Of course, she still didn't hold a candle to Austin's cultivation speed. During the past year, Austin had been on a vast amount of adventures and had obtained many precious treasures. These opportunities had greatly enriched his cultivation base.

Mindy, however, had stayed in Valley Town for the whole year. All she could do was cultivate on her own. Under these isolating circumstances, it was truly amazing for her to have promoted her cultivation base from the preliminary stage of Earth Realm to the premium stage of Earth Realm in such a short time.

Mindy stood in front of Austin smiling from ear to ear. Her skin was smooth and fair. She had a pretty face, slender waist, two long and elegant legs, and luscious hips.

Ever since her dragon feminine constitution had been activated, Mindy had become more beautiful with each passing day. Austin's eyes widened in shock as he stared at her. She certainly wasn't inferior to Ivy and Sue in terms of looks. As he marveled at her flourishing beauty, he found himself attracted to her in ways that he had not previously been. "How dare you! Austin is our Zhang Clan's savior. If it weren't for him, our Zhang Clan would've been eliminated by the Li Clan. How dare you attack him!"

Mindy scolded the guards with a livid face. She felt embarrassed by the rude reception which he had received.

"Austin, are you all right?" she asked with concern written all over her face.

Of course she knew that none of the Zhang Clan's guards could hurt Austin. Still, she worried for him.

Austin had saved her and her clan. She owed him a debt of gratitude for that. But her feelings for him ran deeper than that. After Austin had left Valley Town, she had once returned to the Sun Sect to look for him. But to her disappointment, he had broken off all relations with the Sun Sect. She had nurtured a burgeoning hope that he would return to her someday.

"Don't worry, Mindy. I'm great.” Austin smiled, and then remarked with concern, "Your house is heavily guarded. Are you expecting trouble?" "Austin, it's really you!

Mindy, why are you just standing there? Show Austin to the living room and serve him a cup of tea," said an old man from the doorway where he stood, leaning on a cane for support.

He was Zachary, the head of the Zhang Clan. He had hurried over to Austin, as much as his frail state would permit, when he had heard the news of his arrival.

"Hi Zachary. Don't be so formal with me. After all, Mindy and I are friends. I happened to be passing by Valley Town. So I came here to visit her,"

said Austin bashful at the warm welcome.

Zachary was still very respectful towards Austin. He led him to the living room and asked the housemaids to serve him a cup of tea and bring delicious snacks.

After spending some time catching up on each other's lives, Austin asked curiously, "Mindy, when I entered the front yard, I heard the guards talking about enemies and the Ghost Sect. What has happened?”

"Really? You don’t know?

The Ghost Sect have suddenly returned to the Violet Orchid Empire. They are very arrogant, and have even threatened to take over ruling the Violet Orchid Empire. No one is safe. Didn't you hear about it?

The members of the Ghost Sect can be seen everywhere inside the Violet Orchid Empire. They have given all of the sects and cultivators two options. One is to surrender and join the Ghost Sect. The other is to be killed.

Although we are not strong cultivators, the Zhang Clan is the biggest clan of Valley Town. In order to control Valley Town, the Ghost Sect must control the Zhang Clan first.

Yesterday, the Ghost Sect sent an envoy to our clan. He said that we must surrender to the Ghost Sect and join them. Otherwise, they will kill us all,"

Mindy said calmly, though Austin could see the gravity of the situation in her tense body language.
