Chapter 3810 Elijah

Austin secretly observed this man—he was tall, brawny, and even had a fair complexion.

This handsome young man was clad in a fine robe with a jade belt. He emitted golden light, which only meant that he had lots of high-grade treasures in his possession.

Although there were mysterious symbols inscribed on his body, he still looked strong and noble.

When Austin sized him up, he easily perceived that this young man was a genuine medium-grade divine god.

What was more, this man was obsessed with the mermaid.

He looked at her with a hint of desire in his eyes.

"Don't worry about me, Elijah. I'm fine.

Thanks to Austin, I didn't get into any trouble.

By the way, how are the others from our Heaven Beast Valley?" the mermaid asked casually.

'Hmm. I see. So this mermaid comes from the Heaven Beast Valley.'

Austin was quietly listening in on the conversation between the mermaid and the handsome, young man.

The Heaven Beast Valley was a forbidden place in the Sea of Chaos. However, it had recently been gaining fame.

The creatures from this forbidden area were known to be incredibly powerful.

"Wait. Did you just say Austin? Who is this Austin guy anyway?!"

When he realized who she meant, Elijah slowly turned to look at Austin with his piercing eyes. It was as though he was trying to assess whether Austin was a good man.

At this point, Austin had sent all the genuine divine gods whom he had just tamed into the continent that he had created.

Since he was strong enough to protect himself in the maze, Austin didn't need those slaves to fight beside him.

If he kept them by his side, he would have had to protect them from the illusions that were all over the place.

That was why Elijah saw no one else except Austin and the mermaid, alone together.

"Who are you?! Why are you with her?

What do you want from her?!

Speak!"

Elijah grilled Austin in a strident voice.

Sensing that Austin was an ordinary preliminary-grade divine god, he only took him for a human kid whose strength was too weak and insignificant.

Thus, he showed Austin no sign of respect.

"Don't be so rude to him, Elijah.

Austin is a good guy. Without him, I probably wouldn't have made it alive," the mermaid suddenly uttered.

Afraid that Elijah might piss Austin off, she hurriedly went forward and stood between Austin and Elijah.

The mermaid was well aware of w

!"

Austin snorted with a defiant sneer. He wasn't satisfied with the way Elijah was reacting.

Immediately, more and more illusions flooded Elijah.

"Aaahh! No! Where am I? What's this horrible place? How did I get here?!"

Elijah finally broke down and cried out in terror. He couldn't hold out any longer.

"Austin! Please spare his life!"

The sight of Elijah being frightened to death perturbed the mermaid.

"Why? Have you forgotten that he was talking about destroying me just now?"

Austin snarled flatly as he turned to look at her.

"Austin, I know Elijah wronged you...

But he's my fellow disciple.

I can't bear to watch him die in front of me.

Please let him go, Austin.

If you spare his life, I will do anything for you,"

the mermaid begged Austin.

"All right, fine. I won't kill him for your sake."

Austin finally nodded in agreement.

After all, he wasn't that ruthless.

Although he wasn't open to coercion, he was open to persuasion—as long as it was all within reason.

Now that a gorgeous woman was begging him with such a pitiful look, Austin did not mind doing her a favor.

On top of that, Elijah couldn't possibly be a danger to him.

There was no use in killing him, so he didn't have any problem sparing his life.

"I'm gonna go. Take care of yourself."

Austin turned around and walked away.

'Well, now that she has been reunited with her fellow disciple, she won't need me to protect her anymore.'

"Hey, Austin! Are you trying to get rid of me?

Wait for me!"

To Austin's surprise, the mermaid promptly caught up with him.
