Lightning Is the Only Way

A young man with white hair and white eyes walked out of the central palace of the Shining Purity Sect.

His eyes were calm like the deep ocean, and it seemed like nothing could shake him.

This was someone that had created his own conviction.

He was the polar opposite of the Shining Radiance Sect. While the Shining Radiance Sect put up a holy front, this person seemed distant from everything.

He was not a person that talked a lot, but he would always show his loyalty with his actions.

He was not a fan of the current leadership of the Shining Purity Sect. The leadership wanted to sacrifice his future for their gain.

However, this wasn't important to him.

The Shining Purity Sect had allowed him to become powerful, and he would help them as long as they didn't threaten his future.

Because of that, he had adamantly refused to become a level five Star God. He hadn't even wanted to become a level four Star God yet, but after a lot of persuasion, he had given his Sect at least that.

After all, he didn't want to be helpless when an enemy was threatening his home.

All of this was for protecting the Shining Purity Sect.

Stella looked at Austin with cold eyes.

She didn't seem nervous.

Instead, fierce battle-intent raged in her eyes.

Austin stopped in front of Stella and neutrally looked at Stella.

"I don't want to kill you, but I need to defend my Sect. I don't expect you to forgive me. However, I can offer you peace of mind," he slowly said.

Stella didn't react to his words.

"What's your name, and from which Sect are you? I will protect your Sect from any unjust actions. If the Shining Purity Sect ever wages war with your Sect, I will do my best to make the resolution as peaceful as possible," he said.

Stella was surprised by his words.

He hadn't activated any kind of Law while saying these words, but she somehow knew that he was honest.

He didn't want to kill her. However, he also couldn't put his Sect at risk.

Because of that, he tried to make it as easy as possible for Stella.

In a sense, he was a good person.

Sadly, he belonged to the wrong power.

"Stella, Myriad Sect," Stella said slowly.

The leadership of the Shining Purity Sect didn't like that Austin was making promises without having the authority, but there was nothing much they could do.

They knew that Austin was fiercely loyal. They genuinely liked and supported him. Their differing opinions didn't stop that.

Austin nodded. "I will do my best to protect the Myriad Sect. You can go in peace," he said.

Stella smiled in peace.

"Can you at least kill me with your strongest attack? I want it to be quick, and I want to feel the extent of your power before I die," she said.

Austin nodded.
