Chapter 833: Chapter 832: Dean Austin’s Cunning
"Ice Sealing~"
With a hum, just as Yusuf Zuck and the Earth Demon simultaneously spat blood and retreated, Dean Austin finally made his move in a somber expression. He pointed a finger and pressed it on the retreating Earth Demon’s head, covering the body of the Earth Demon instantly in a layer of blue ice crystals!
The Thunder Fist of Yusuf Zuck was excessively fierce and scorching hot. Not only did his punch injure the innards of the Earth Demon, but it almost set them ablaze, so Dean Austin intervened to help extinguish the fire!
Meanwhile, Dean Austin, with a sparkling look in his eyes, watched Yusuf Zuck but did not attack immediately, as if he had just remembered something.
As for Yusuf Zuck, also suspended in mid-air, frankly speaking, even though he had activated fourteen Blood Beads, his strength was only equivalent to that of a second or third-level Earth Immortal, except he had stronger telekinesis. Thus, when matching strength and fists with a fourth-level Earth Demon, he was overwhelmed and suffering from severe pain all over his body.
He was panting heavily and also realized he could not continue the fight. A fourth-level Earth Immortal had already left him in such a dire state, so if Dean Austin were to make his move, his death would undoubtedly be imminent, with no escape!
He clearly understood that he wasn’t the strongest in this world, there were always stronger beings, and a mountain is always higher than the other. There was also a saying: "Leave the green hills, and you won’t worry about firewood." Today he might not surpass Dean Austin, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t in the future!
He had previously activated four Blood Beads at once, and after activating these four Blood Beads, he hadn’t even checked what special abilities he had gained. Thus, his combat power wasn’t at its strongest. He didn’t even fully understand himself, then how could he fight against Dean Austin?
Noticing that Dean Austin showed no intention of attacking and everyone around dared not make a move, Yusuf Zuck suddenly shouted fiercely. Following that, the Purple Light Sword unsheathed itself, its blade pointing out; once again, he shattered the Dragon Trap Ban of Capital City and disappeared in a flash!
Surprisingly, Dean Austin did nothing from the beginning until the end, didn’t stop him, didn’t interfere, instead he seemed to intentionally let Yusuf Zuck escape!
"What’s going on?" Master Blackwell and others were somewhat baffled. Why didn’t Dean Austin take action? Why didn’t he stop Bryson Campbell from leaving?
"That’s enough, let’s disperse. He can’t escape the palm of my hand!" Dean Austin coldly waved his sleeve and then stepped back into the palace!
And just as he had settled back into the palace, the Green Emperor rushed in, his face dark as he pointed at Dean Austin and credited, "Dean Austin, what is your meaning? Why deliberately let Bryson Campbell escape?"
"Remove your dog paws? Although I have agreed to help you, I didn’t give you the right to command me. If you dare disrespect me again, don’t blame me for being ruthless and turning my face against you!" Dean Austin coldly looked at the Green Emperor. He had made a deal and sworn an oath with the Green Emperor, which is why he had been released; otherwise, the Green Emperor wouldn’t have easily let him go!
"You..." Seeing the murderous look in Dean Austin’s eyes, the Green Emperor choked up in anger, took a deep breath, and instantly regained his majestic demeanor, bowing slightly towards Dean Austin, "Mr. Dean, it was my disrespect. But why didn’t you stop Bryson Campbell?"
Dean Austin shook his head and said, "I don’t want to discuss the reasons. I am tired and need to rest." After saying that, Dean Austin went straight back to the East Palace.
In the eastern part of the palace, there is an East Palace, which normally would be the dwelling place of the Crown Prince, but now it was given to Dean Austin to reside in, as a means to have him protect the palace.
The Green Emperor almost spat blood in frustration, but he was helpless. However, he really didn’t understand why this dragon had not taken action. Why?
After Dean Austin returned to the East Palace, he ordered that no one should disturb him, and he entered his personal chamber.
His private chamber was incredibly lavish, the floor glistened with gold, paved entirely with highly pure gold bricks, carved and orderly arranged. The walls were embedded with various gemstones, the curtains by the bed were made of golden thread, the bed was a green jade stone bed, and even the coverlet on it was woven with golden threads, with pillows resembling those massage ones, all made of agate.
His chamber truly shimmered with gems, priceless in its construction. This was specifically requested from the Green Emperor, as he adored gold and treasures, a deep-seated love within his bones—it was his greatest indulgence!
After he entered the room and sat on the bed, his expression turned grave, and he muttered to himself: The Book of Earth, the Book of Earth, The Book of Earth. At that moment just now, the power of The Book of Earth had emanated. Bryson Campbell had received the legacy of The Book of Earth! No wonder he’s so powerful, able to fight a fourth-level Earth Demon with a Nascent Soul Cultivation Level. Now I see, now I see!
He took several deep breaths in succession. In this world, perhaps no one knew what The Book of Earth was, but as an ancient dragon who had existed since ancient times, he was well aware of the horrors and mysteries of The Book of Earth.
It was precisely because of the emanation of the Book of Earth’s aura during Yusuf Zuck’s final clash with the Earth Demon Immortal that Dean Austin refrained from making a move. Firstly, even if he had intervened, he might not have been able to detain the adversary; secondly, if he failed to detain him, he would then incur the great wrath of Bryson Campbell!
If Bryson Campbell were an ordinary person, making an enemy of him wouldn’t matter—who did Dean Austin care about?
However, since Bryson Campbell had inherited the teachings of the Book of Earth, if Dean Austin attacked and failed to kill him, Bryson would, given time, decipher the secrets of the Book of Earth and undoubtedly seek vengeance. By then, Dean Austin might not be his match!
Therefore, rather than making a sworn enemy, it was better to leave some room for good future relations!
Why would he kill Bryson Campbell? There was no reason!
Why should he listen so obediently to the Green Emperor? Again, no reason!
Why make an enemy of someone who had inherited the Book of Earth? Still no reason!
Thus, Dean Austin decided in an instant not to make a move.
As for cunning, Dean Austin was also crafty!
"Ah, the Book of Earth, so elusive..." Dean Austin gave a wry smile, then immediately closed his eyes, his soul leaving his body, and he practiced the Art of Spirit Wandering the Void!
Yusuf Zuck did not flee north but landed on the East Sea coast and looked profoundly toward the west, puzzled about why the dragon hadn’t intervened, not even symbolically blocking him, which was quite odd and felt wrong!
With a "buzz", just as he was gazing towards the west, suddenly a fierce tremor occurred in the void above his head, and then a massive aura descended swiftly, quickly condensing into a humanoid silhouette within flashes of lightning!
This person was Dean Austin, who could actually shape his Divine Sense like creating a clone!
Yusuf Zuck’s entire heart thumped wildly. Just how powerful was this ancient Sacred Dragon?
"Do not be hasty, I am Dean Austin!" Seeing that Yusuf Zuck seemed about to make a move, Dean Austin immediately called him ’young friend’ and cupped his fists towards Yusuf Zuck!
"Huh?" Yusuf Zuck’s eyebrows shot up. What did this dragon mean?
"I have no other intentions. I was hunting you only because of a prior agreement with the Green Emperor. However, I chose not to intervene earlier and deliberately let you go. It was intentional, and indeed, we could become friends!"
"What do you mean?" Yusuf Zuck immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "In your eyes, what am I? How dare you call me ’young friend’?"
"Ha ha, young friend, you have inherited the teachings of the Book of Earth. This is your destiny to seize the fortune of heaven and earth. I have always believed that those endowed with such fortune are destined by heaven, and you are bound to enjoy supreme fortune and stand unparalleled under the heavens."
"That’s all I have come to say. I hope that in the future we can enjoy a drink together. Dean Austin bids farewell!" After saying this, the dragon’s form shook and he dissipated into nothingness!
Yusuf Zuck took a deep breath. How did Dean Austin know that he had received the inheritance of the Book of Earth? Moreover, what exactly was the Book of Earth?
"It seems I truly do not understand myself. I must seclude myself for intensive cultivation, to comprehend the Special abilities unleashed by the Blood Beads, and to understand what the Book of Earth is!" Yusuf Zuck took another deep breath, thought for a moment, then suddenly turned back and continued towards Capital City!
