Chapter 256 Austin Got The Pair Of Eagle Wings (Part One) (1/2)
Austin held the eagle wings in his hands and looked at it minutely. The apparent dark brown feather was dotted with purple cloud-like patterns which caught the eyes only if one looked carefully. It felt hard as steel to touch but still had the warmth of an animal body.

Austin could make out from their voice that the disciples from Medicine Sect were approaching them.
Although most of these disciples had
