At this time, inside the palace, the chief was scolding someone over something.
"Oh my God!
What do you think you are doing?
What did you want to do by gathering all these foxes?
Besides, why is the spiritual avatar I left in your Soul Sea broken?
Tell me what happened! Tell me everything!"
A furious booming voice shook the whole palace.
"Ha ha. It's none of your business. Stop asking me these questions all the time.
I have my own intentions and that's that!"
A gloomy voice responded. It was the defiant voice of Lucien.
"You! You! How dare you talk to me in such a tone?
I have spoiled you so much that you have become so arrogant! Look at yourself!
You are such a disrespectful bastard! I'm so disappointed in you!"
The owner of the furious voice was on the verge of madness. The utter disrespect coming from his own
son was too much for him to take.
At this moment, Austin had led his mighty army and stopped outside the palace, surrounding it.
In the whole Genuine Snake World, more than half of the divine gods had become his slaves.
They followed him here as a huge aggressive army.
"You! You! What do you want to do?
This is a sacred place! The place where our leader cultivates! No one is allowed to approach without
permission!"
Outside the palace, two old men were sitting cross legged on both sides of the gate. When they saw a
mighty army approaching with their thundering steps that shook the ground, they almost jumped to their
feet.
The two of them were genuine preliminary-grade divine gods, and were not very strong. Otherwise,
they wouldn't have been sent merely guarding the gate here.
Seeing the two old men, Austin didn't say anything and simply used the Mind Sword Skill and the
Puppet Strings.
Puff! Puff!
The two old men immediately spurted blood and their bodies were reduced into a messy heap.
Afterwards, their eyes began to soften, showing the same blank expression as the other soldiers that
Austin had turned into his slaves.
"Go in now and ask your chief to come out to see me,"
Austin ordered the two old men.
He then casually threw a dozen of advanced magic herbs at them to heal their wounds now that they
had already become his slaves.
Considering the manpower that he had under him, Austin had become an extremely wealthy man.
Apart from the treasures that he had gained over the years, all the wealth of his more than ten
thousand slaves now belonged to him.
It would be hard to imagine how much wealth these divines gods had accumulated throughout their
lives.
Now it was all under Austin's control.
"Yes, master!"
The two old men took the magic herbs given by Austin and began to recover rapidly.
As divine gods, it was easy for them to recover from physical injury.
Besides, the herbs were of mysterious origins and advanced healing powers. So they were able to
recover in no time.
The two old men then walked straight into the palace and informed the chief of this world, "Sir,
someone wants to see you. He is waiting for you outside our gates."
At that time, the chief of this world was busying scolding his eldest son.
His eldest son, Lucien, the heir to his throne, had been acting strangely since he came back from his
trip today. He had gathered all the demon foxes in the whole world and brought them to the palace.
All imprisoned nine-tailed demon fox race were released and brought here as well.
According to the law of the world, the convicted felons in the prisons were not to be released without
the chief's command. He was the only one with the authority to make such a decision.
However, his eldest son had been spoiled by him since he was a child. No matter what happened, the
chief always spoiled him and allowed him to do whatever he liked. He had treated and conditioned his
eldest son to be his successor.
The whole world knew about this.
That was why at Lucien's strong request, the guards who were in charge of the prison had to release
all those from the nine-tailed demon fox race.
Lucien was the next in line as the chief of this world and no one wanted to offend him.
The current chief was naturally furious when he found out about it.
He summoned his son to the palace and scolded him severely.
However, Lucien only had a cheeky smile on his face. He didn't tell his father what happened exactly.
Instead, he only mumbled some strange words and kept contradicting the chief. It appeared that Lucien
no longer had any respect for his father.
Because of this, the chief grew even more furious.
It was at this moment that the two old guards came in and reported the incident at the gate.
The tone and attitude of the two old men were also different from the usual. They didn't respect the
chief at all, either. Their eyes were even full of banter.
"Watch your attitude!
If you dare to be so rude to me next time, I will kill you myself!"
The chief was at the end of his wits for the strange behavior of everyone around him.
What the hell was happening today?
His eldest son was being a massive asshole to him, even flashing a cheeky smile on his face.
Now the two guards even dared to act disrespectfully toward him.
"What is going on?
Something is wrong! This is just incredibly weird!"
He faintly felt that something must be wrong, although he didn't know what exactly yet.
"Whatever!
No matter who it is, tell him to get out of here and stay away, as far as he can.
Otherwise, don't blame me if I treat him like a piece of garbage!"
he roared towards the two old men.
"I'm afraid I can't do that.
You'd better go out to tell him yourself,"
one of the two old men sneered.
"He is right!
Old man, don't put on airs here. Stop the silliness and go check it out yourself!"
Lucien joined in.
"What? You!
You! What did you just say to me? You damn bastard! How dare you talk to your father like that!
Are you rebelling against me now?"
The chief pointed at his son, trembling with anger.
At that same time, a deep chill suddenly enveloped him, from head to foot.
Things were getting much too weird!
The three people in front of him, one was his eldest son, and the other two were his servants who had
followed him for many years, were all acting so strangely. The chief was sure that they were absolutely
trustworthy. Never in his wildest dreams would he imagine them rebelling against him.
But now the three of them were treating him in a wildly impolite manner.
It was not until this moment that the chief finally realized that something was indeed wrong.
"What the hell is going on with you three?
Tell me!
Are you being threatened or forced by someone?
Don't be afraid. I will back you up. You don't need to be held hostage like this!"
the chief asked straightforwardly as he scrutinized his son and the two old men closely.
"Humph, back us up? Don't flatter yourself. You are not qualified to do that. What can you do?
Only our master has the ability to back us up!"
one of the old guards said with a disdainful smile.
"He speaks out the truth. Our master is our greatest backer!
Only he has the power and strength to back us up!"
The other old man and Lucien nodded solemnly to show their agreement.
"What nonsense are you talking about now?
Master? I am your master! What the hell are you saying?
What's going on? Tell me the truth, or I'll kill both of you right now!"
the chief roared angrily, getting more and more frustrated by the minute.
Just then, a faint but solid voice sounded into the hall.
"They speak of me. I am their master.
I'm here now. You can try but you can't kill them."
From the shadows, a young man with several divine gods behind him swaggered in.
"Master!"
Lucien and the two old men immediately ran to Austin and greeted him fawningly.
"Master, I have gathered all those members of the nine-tailed demon fox race in this world as you have
instructed.
They are all in my place now!"
Lucien said proudly.
"Well done.
Violet, go with this man and bring your people here,"
Austin told Violet.
"Yes, master!"
Violet replied excitedly, her voice filled with expectation. She was about to see more of her own kind
whom she had never seen before.
She then immediately followed Lucien, running behind him.
The chief was so angry and confused that his whole body trembled violently. His face was distorted and
ferocious. He pointed at Austin and roared, "You! You!
Who the hell are you and from which depths of hell did you come from? How could my own child take
you as his master?
Damn it!
He doesn't even listen to me now!
Who are you?
Tell me!"
