The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 278 Chief Elder Of Flaming Sun Valley

Austin walked into the auction hall and was immediately greeted by astaff member.

"Sir, would you like to be in the general area or the VIP area?”

"Oh, there are two separate areas? What's the difference?"

In the last auction that Austin had gone to, everyone had sat aroundthe auction stand in the same hall without any partition.

"Yes, we've just introduced this system in our auction house. Guests inthe VIP area have priority in the auction for the same bid. The generalarea is in the lobby while the VIP area is a separate room with a crystalscreen that broadcasts the auction in real time."

Austin actually liked observing everything that went on at an auction.However, right now, he needed to hide his whereabouts. He would be alot less conspicuous in a separate room.

"I'm going to the VIP area.”

"Okay, distinguished guest. Please pay 50, 000 vital energy crystals for aVIP card which will be valid for one year. All our VIP cardholders willreceive the same treatment at any Ganges Auction House in all thetowns and cities in the Violet Orchid Empire.”

"What? 50, 000 vital energy crystals?"

Austin gasped.

Even though it seemed to be too much, he went ahead and paid 50,000 vital energy crystals for a VIP card.

Then, a coquettish waitress walked over to him.

"Distinguished guest, your VIP room number is 63. I'll be your guide fortoday.

I'll be serving you exclusively during the auction.”

The waitress was dressed in a bright red tightly-fitted gown. It wasgorgeous and delicate and hugged her body at all the right places,showing off her curves. There was a silver ribbon tied around her waist,accentuating how small it was. Moreover, there was a slit in her gownunder which her snow-white legs peeped out every time she took astep forward. And finally, the small smile on her face made her lookconfident and charming. All in all, she looked sexy and seductive fromhead to toe. Any man would fall for her. Sure enough, as she led Austinto room 63, many of the men they passed by turned their heads aroundto ogle at her. They all looked at Austin with envy for being luckyenough to get this waitress.

Of course, Austin didn't even notice them. As he followed the waitressto his private room, all he could focus on was the twist of her tiny waistand how sexy she looked from the back. He was completely attractedto her.

Austin's luxury box was over 300 square meters in size with a luxuriouscarpet on the floor. The walls were thick and soundproof.

Many special metals had been used to block outsiders fromeavesdropping. This was the reason the Ganges Auction House was sosuccessful and had branches all over the Violet Orchid Empire—it reallypaid attention to all the details.

When they entered the box, the waitress poured some tea for Austinand set everything up for him, intentionally bending over and twistingher waist to show off her body to Austin. Every now and then, she gavehim a come-hither look. Austin could barely stand it.

It was clear that she was implying that Austin would get any service thathe asked for in this VIP room.

Being a virgin, he could barely resist the temptation of such a seductivewoman.

But he forced himself to ignore all the hints that she was dropping andsuppressed his inner desire.

He just quietly sat in Room 63 in the VIP area, waiting for the auction tobegin.

Meanwhile, near Peace Town, there was a crowd near the clearing inFlaming Sun Valley where Austin had killed Raymond.

An old man with grey hair and quiet breath was standing with morethan a dozen people. In front of the old man, a young man in a yellowshirt was kneeling on the ground, trembling in fear.

The old man walked back and forth in the clearing where Raymond hadbeen killed, as if checking something.

Next to the clearing lay dozens of half-broken skeletons that werecovered with teeth marks of beasts. It was obvious that after thedisciples of the Flaming Sun Valley, including Raymond, Madden, andRankin, had been killed by Austin, their bodies had been devoured bywild dogs or wolves.

The old man wept bitterly as he looked at one of the skeletons. Hesquatted down and gently picked up the incomplete bones as tears fellonto them.

This old man was none other than Dwayne, the Chief Elder of theFlaming Sun Valley.

He felt sad and desolate over the loss of his grandson.

"Gather Raymond's bones and take them back to the valley for a properburial,” he said quietly.

At once, two disciples walked up and took out a red cloth bag. Theycarefully picked up Raymond's bones one by one and put them into thebag.

A middle-aged man came forward and said, "Chief Elder, I'm sorry foryour loss."

This middle-aged man was a steward in the Flaming Sun Valley. Dwaynehad come here with three stewards and more than a dozen elite figuresfrom the Flaming Sun Valley, most of whom were in the cultivation baseof Earth Realm.

"Chief, here is the sign of the array! I think Raymond and the otherswere killed in an attack of an array,” said a charming middle-agedwoman, another steward from the Flaming Sun Valley.

"Well, that's right. Raymond was indeed killed in an attack of an array,”Dwayne said, nodding.

Then, he moved his cold eyes to the young man in the yellow shirt whowas kneeling in front of him.

"Tell me, what's going on here?"

Dwayne's voice was quiet with suppressed anger.

"Chief Elder, I was separated from Raymond at the entrance of GangesAuction House.

I heard that Raymond took Rankin and Madden, as well as more than adozen disciples from the Flaming Sun Valley, to go after a man namedAustin."

"Oh? And why did Raymond go after that man?"

"I really don't know the reason. I didn't dare to ask him anything aboutit.

Raymond just told me to replace an inn in Peace Town and wait for him tocome back.

I waited for five days in Peace Town but they didn't come back, so Icame here looking for Raymond. That's when I found all these bodies.Since Raymond was dead, I was afraid that I would be punished by youwhen I returned to the valley, so I didn't dare to come back. That's why Ididn't come and see you until Billy found me yesterday.

For the sake of my loyalty to the Flaming Sun Valley, please spare mylife.”

Dwayne barely heard the words of the man kneeling in front of him. Hewas still seething in anger over the fact that his grandson was dead.

He had always been an extreme person, and the older he got, theworse his temper became.

Since he was the Elder of a large sect, he had brought along the elitemembers of the sect to avenge the death of his grandson.

"Austin?"

He kept repeating the name with his eyes full of resentment.

"Do you know who Austin is?"

Chief Elder, I really do not know."

The disciple in the yellow shirt trembled on the ground. Every disciplein the Flaming Sun Valley knew that their leader had a bad temper andwas unreasonable.

"Wow, you're really useless," the Chief Elder said coldly, his lips turningup into a sneer.

"Please spare my life. Please spare my life!”

The disciple in the yellow shirt was so frightened that he begankowtowing.

"Chief, I know Austin's identity,” said a voice all of a sudden.

One of the disciples in the crowd stepped forward and looked atDwayne. He was none other than Weaver, who had gotten beaten upby Austin in front of the entrance of Lotus Tavern.

He would definitely recognize Austin as soon as he saw him.

Weaver didn't have a good cultivation base but he was good at flattery.In the Flaming Sun Valley, he had been the most trusted follower ofRaymond. Every time Raymond went out, he had always taken Weaverwith him.

But since Weaver had had to spend several months in Flaming SunValley to recover after being beaten up by Austin, he hadn't been withRaymond this time. Otherwise, he would be dead too

The Chief Elder of the Flaming Sun Valley had specifically asked Weaverto come along because he thought that Weaver would know somethingabout this incident that he didn't. And now, it turned out that he wasright.

"You know it? Good, very good. Tell me."

The Chief Elder couldn't wait to replace out.

"Austin is an outer disciple of the Sun Sect. He's insolent and has alwaysacted tyrannically. He beat up Raymond and his disciples for no reason.He's the one who broke my arm. I had to rest for two months before Irecovered.

Raymond's death must have something to do with him.”

"Austin is just an outer disciple of the Sun Sect?

How dare an outer disciple of the Sun Sect kill my grandson? EvenTheon, the head of the Sun Sect, would respect me.

Anyway, fine! Let's go to the Sun Sect. I will see how Theon is going toexplain this to me!"
