Chapter 1422 Jared Refuses To Sell It
The splashes of water were several stories high. In a split second, sharks were drawn toward the giant crab’s lifeless body floating on the sea.
Floating in mid-air, Jared held the beast core and stared coldly at the people on the cruise ship below him.
At that moment, he was like the mighty creator descending from heaven, for his imposing vibe was beyond description.
Looking at Jared floating in mid-air, Edgar felt a hint of uneasiness surge from within him. He had to admit that he had been utterly astounded by the former’s prowess numerous times.
Meanwhile, no words could describe the intense somberness on Zion’s face as his murderous intent intensified. Deep down, he realized he had to eradicate Jared before the latter became a mightier threat to him.
Shortly after, Jared descended gradually onto the cruise ship from mid-air. The others paid no heed to him as the giant crab’s dead body had caught their attention.
Since they could not obtain the giant crab’s beast core, they switched to target its flesh instead. After all, the beast’s flesh was also a rare resource for their cultivation.
With that, they jumped into the sea and began slaughtering the sharks heading toward the giant crab’s lifeless body.
They were no match for the giant crab, but their prowess was more than enough to eradicate the sharks.
Many started to fight over various parts of the beast. Some even threw punches at each other for that.
Jared smirked at the others fighting intensely against each other. Pfft! Blinded by their greed, all these heirs from prominent families are no different from robbers!
“Jared, you were incredible!”
Howard approached Jared with a look of excitement. He took the beast core from the latter and scrutinized it. “Let me see. So this is the so-called beast core. I’m impressed with how good it looks!”
“If you like it, you can have it,” Jared said casually with a smile.
No doubt, the beast core was of high quality. However, it was nothing to Jared and would not help much in boosting his combat prowess.
After all, he had just had a breakthrough to another cultivation level and needed unlimited spiritual energy. Not to mention he had to refine Diego’s Nascent Soul.
“No, no, no… I can never have this. It’s too valuable and will be a waste if you give it to me. I’m afraid I won’t be a Martial Arts Marquis in this lifetime with my skill.” Howard waved his hands before shoving back the beast core in Jared’s hand.
He was fully aware he was not talented enough. Even if he consumed the beast core, it wouldn’t help much in upgrading his skills.
Hearing that, Jared kept the beast core without uttering any words.
Right then, Astrid approached him and asked warily, “Jared, could you sell me the beast core?”
Undeniably, the beast core was an essential cultivation resource for her.
Jared threw a glance at her and stated placidly, “I’m not selling it.”
What’s the point of me selling the beast core? I’m not short of money either. Even though it can’t help me much if I have it, I can bring it back to others who need it.
Astrid was stunned, but she did not give up on talking Jared into changing his mind. “I’m willing to exchange other resources for it—pills, magical items, and others…”
“I won’t exchange it for anything!”
There was a slight change in Astrid’s countenance. However, there was nothing she could do.
Edgar, on the other hand, was overwhelmed with rage.
In the room, Zion narrowed his eyes and gestured to Salvador Xiques, one of the four members of the Warriors Alliance.
“Salvador, go out and tell Mr. Deragon that…” Zion whispered to him. Seconds later, Salvador led the other three out of the room.
Right after Salvador reached the deck, he leaned closer to Edgar and whispered a few words to him.
The latter’s face lit up instantaneously.
Just as Jared was about to leave the deck and return to his room, Edgar stood in his way.
“Jared, you can’t leave unless you hand the beast core over to me.”
