Chapter 4439 We Have Another Enemy (1/2)
”Sir! Why did you...”
The senior member of the Eternal Sword Sect gawked at the leader, confused and irked. He touched his swollen face where he was hit.
As an elder, he held a high status in the sect, and even the sect leader didn't have the right to strike him for no reason.
The other members also stared at their leader in disbelief.
”If you wish to die, leave the sect and then do whatever you want!
Don't get the entire sect into trouble with your foolishness!” the leader of the Eternal Sword Sect yelled at the senior member.
He then turned to the other members.
”Our existence means nothing to Austin.
We are weak; we are like a bunch of ants in his path.
And there's no doubt that he can destroy us in a heartbeat if he wishes.
So, don't you dare say such damning things again! If it reached his ears, our sect will be doomed.
Right now, there is no reason for him to pay any attention to us. Let us not get on his bad side.”
The senior leader held on to his swollen face and listened silently.
He couldn't retort because he knew that the leader was right.
”If we are trying to stay out of Austin's radar, then why were we on our knees to greet him here in the first place?”
another core member asked gingerly.
”I don't understand what's going on either!”
The other senior members also looked at the leader in confusion.
”Let me explain.
Did you notice?
Although Austin didn't even turn to look at us,
he did respond with a nod.
It could only mean that he knew that we are on his side.
He is the kind of person who would remember the people who support him.
He now will never forget that we stood by his side.
This way, our sect will be affiliated to Austin.
