"You..." Dent said through clenched teeth.
He was too shocked. But when he cback to his senses, he was surprised and angry at the stwhen he saw Austin.
"Brat, was it you who had just played tricks on me?"
he roared angrily.
What had happened just now was something he had never imagined.
He was relaxing in his own villa. But all of a sudden, why was he here in this grassland?
"You're right.
It waswho brought you here,"
Austin replied expressionlessly.
"l just have something to ask you.
Why does this man have to pay taxes to you every month?"
he added, looking at Sam.
"Pay taxes? What the... Who are you?"
Dent asked in a harsh tone as he also shifted his eyes to Sam.
"Mr. Tang, my nis Sam Zhu.
Don't worry. | will definitely find a way to pay the crystals | owe you this month,"
Sam hastily said. He felt agitated when Dent suddenly showed up in front of them.
Although he was stunned by Austin's magic skills and knew that Austin was not an ordinary person,
Dent's presence still frightened him. Since he had been suppressed by Dent for such a long time, the fear had already lingered in
his heart.
"Oh, | see. So it was because of you."
Finally, Dent understood what was going on.
"Young man, | didn't know that you are helping Sam.
If that's the case, then | will grant your request.
From now on, he doesn't have to pay tax anymore.
Just take it as my way of showing my sincerity to be friends with you.
Let's consider this matter settled.
What do you think?"
Dent knew that Austin had an extraordinary background. Perhaps Austin was a young talent trained by slarge sect or clan.
After all, the spiritual energy on Earth had been restored over the years. And many sects and clans that specialized in martial arts
cultivation had appeared. Their strength was very terrifying.
He knew that he and his Green Bamboo Gang couldn't afford to offend these large sects and clans.
That was the reason why he suddenly wanted to make friends with Austin. Obviously, Austin was terrifyingly powerful.
"You're talking nonsense.
Just tell me, what kind of tax are you collecting?
You'd better hurry up. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences,"
Austin said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"You brat!
Are you really going to go against our Green Bamboo Gang?
Although we are merely a small local sect, we can't allow anyone to bully us."
Austin's words had definitely enraged Dent.
Since Dent was at the premium stage of Sky Realm, he was considered a moderately powerful warrior based on Earth's current
situation. Because of this, he had becso arrogant.
"Tell me," Austin said again.
He began to becimpatient.
When he pointed his finger at Dent, Dent's body rose up and floated in front of him.
Dent couldn't move even a finger at all. He was like a puppet that his body was totally out of his control.
"My patience is very limited.
You won't like it when it runs out. So you'd better answer my question seriously,"
Austin said flatly.
The moment he finished speaking,
he pointed at Dent again.
In an instant, Dent felt like millions of ants were biting inside his body and thousands of arrows pierced through his heart at the
stime. The pain was unbearable.
"Ahhh!"
Dent let out a painful scream.
"Young man, please forgive me.
I will tell you now."
The intolerable pain forced Dent to finally give in.
"A few years ago, the South Marine Sect discovered a small scale crystal mine here. Then they began mining.
After they were done, they just abandoned the mine.
However, there were still scrystals left in the mine. Although they were low-grade, many people got interested in them. And it
made them think that maybe there were smore crystals that had not been found yet.
From then on, many people went to the mining area that was abandoned by the South Marine Sect to look for crystals.
| realized that it could be profitable for me. So | sent my people to guard the mining area. Anyone who wanted to enter there to
look for crystals should paya certain number of crystals every month,"
Dent told Austin between screams.
"So, that crystal mine doesn't belong to you in the first place. Then what made you think that you have the right to occupy it?"
Austin sneered.
"Sir, I'm so sorry. | know that what | did was wrong.
But | won't do it anymore from now on.
Please, letgo,"
Dent apologized and pleaded in a hurry.
"lI want you to call all the members of your Green Bamboo Gang here,"
Austin ordered after thinking for a while.
"Here? You wantto call all the members of my Green Bamboo Gang here?"
Dent asked to confirm. His voice was full of hesitation.
But if he really heard it right, he knew in his heart that he had no other choice.
Dent waited for a while, but Austin didn't answer his question. He surmised that he had indeed heard it right. So he immediately
took out his communication tool and sent a message to all the members of the Green Bamboo Gang.
After just a short while,
a large group of people cto the grassland. They were all the members of the Green Bamboo Gang.
All of them were martial arts cultivators.
It was no longer surprising. Since the restoration of the spiritual energy on Earth, martial arts cultivation had suddenly beca
fashion here.
"Sir, these are all the members of my Green Bamboo Gang,"
Dent informed Austin.
"I'm glad that everyone is here. | have something to tell all of you. Your Green Bamboo Gang bullies kind people. You are not
qualified to cultivate martial arts.
From now on, | will remove your right to cultivate martial arts. No one from your Green Bamboo Gang is allowed to cultivate martial
arts ever again,"
Austin said in a flat tone.
He then simply waved his hand.
"Ahhh!"
In an instant,
all the members of the Green Bamboo Gang rolled over to the ground and screamed in pain.
As soon as the pain subsided a little, they all discovered that the spiritual power in their bodies disappeared.
And their energy meridians were all closed.
It only meant that they were no longer warriors. They had all becordinary people.
Not only the ordinary members but also Dent and the other senior members of the Green Bamboo Gang had turned into ordinary
people.
"No!
What is going on?
Where is my spiritual power? What happened to my energy meridians?"
Dent roared. He was extremely shock and angry.
"Well...
This is just a slight punishment.
Now, all of you, get out of here!"
Austin shouted. He then waved his hand again.
"No!
What did you do?
Why did my cultivation base disappear?"
Dent tried again and again, but he really didn't have his cultivation base anymore.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was extremely terrified.
There were so many martial arts cultivators on Earth now.
And they were all superior to ordinary people because of their powerful strength. One could tell their difference from ordinary
people at a glance.
It could even be said that martial arts cultivation had now beca symbol of social status.
Ordinary people had always been regarded as the lowest status in society.
In Dent's case, he was able to found the Green Bamboo Gang to bully ordinary people because he was a powerful warrior at the
premium stage of the Sky Realm.
So if he lost his cultivation base, it meant that he would also lose everything he had now.
It was definitely unacceptable to him.
"I'm afraid that your morality doesn't match your position. So all of you from the Green Bamboo Gang don't deserve to cultivate
martial arts at all.
Get out of here now! As I've told you earlier, my patience is very limited."
As soon as Austin finished his words, he waved his sleeve. Then a huge force immediately grabbed all the members of the Green
Bamboo Gang and threw them far away.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Almost a thousand members of the Green Bamboo Gang were thrown like cannonballs. They didn't fall to the ground until they
were thousands of meters away.
"From now on, you don't have to be afraid of Dent anymore.
You are even much stronger than him now,"
Austin turned to Sam and said with a smile.
Sam was at the fifth level of Energy Gathering Realm. Of course, he was much stronger than Dent now, who had turned into an
ordinary man.
"Sir, has Dent really lost his cultivation base?"
Sam asked. He swallowed hard and looked at Austin in awe.
"Yes.
And not only him. All the members of the Green Bamboo Gang have lost their cultivation base too.
Now, they are just ordinary people who can't cultivate martial arts any longer.
If you meet them again, I'm sure that they will be afraid of you. You don't have to be scared of them anymore,"
Austin replied with a smile.
Sam was utterly surprised. But he was so happy as well. For a long time, he had been suppressed by Dent. But now that Dent had
becan ordinary person, he was now much stronger than Dent because he was at the fifth level of Energy Gathering Realm.
