Chapter 1435 Still Alive
Zion and Edgar, too, went over out of curiosity, convinced that Jared could not have survived the brutal attack.
However, when they looked down, they found Jared lying at the bottom with blood all over his body and his bone showing.
The poor man was so severely injured that he barely looked like a person any longer.
“Jared sure has a strong body. Even after enduring a lightning tribulation, he remains intact!”
“What difference does that make? He’s dead now, isn’t he? He should never have offended Warriors Alliance and the Deragons. Nothing good ever comes of ego!”
“Nobody can save him now that his body has been turned into whatever that is…”
The people were discussing among themselves while Edgar smirked at Jared.
Even though he did not get to torture Jared properly or claim the man’s possession as his own, Edgar was glad that he finally got his revenge. Now I can sleep well knowing that Jared’s dead.
However, unlike the others, Zion continued to stare into the crater because he did not think Jared was dead.
“Salvador, take a look down there and bring me Jared’s body.”
Zion had to be sure that Jared was dead. Otherwise, he would have to burn the body to prevent the man from coming back to life.
Salvador could not help but frown in puzzlement as the burnt smell filled his nostrils. How can anyone possibly survive this?
However, Salvador knew he could not disobey Zion, so he gestured for his men to follow him into the crater to get Jared’s body.
Just when Salvador was about to head down, Jared’s body suddenly twitched, causing everyone to inhale sharply in response.
“It… It moved!” shouted someone.
Then, Jared slowly gathered his strength to get himself back up.
Even though his body had sustained severe injuries, Jared remained burning with rage. The bright flame in his eyes was proof of it.
“He is alive!” exclaimed Zion in surprise. “It seems this won’t be over until Jared is nothing but a stain on the floor.”
Zion became even more cautious when he realized that Jared had not been murdered.
Surrounded by a faint golden light, Jared climbed out of the crater with difficulty.
The crowd instinctively gave way to the man when they saw him, impressed by his persistence.
As for Astrid, she ignored Zion’s threat and helped pull Jared out.
Zion said nothing about it since he was sure Jared would die anyway. With the condition he’s in, anyone can take him out now.
Having had the arcane array in him disrupted by the lightning tribulation, Jared gazed coldly at Edgar.
A faint golden light enveloped Jared as the spiritual energy in him slowly recovered.
“The arcane array is no more. Make your move before Jared regains full strength,” uttered the voice in Edgar’s head anxiously.
After nodding in response, Edgar surrounded himself with black light again and leaped into the air. “Let’s end this once and for all, Jared.”
Edgar threw another punch at Jared, intending to turn the man into a paste.
Jared, too, leaped into the air and turned his body mid-air.
Unsure of what Jared was trying to do, Edgar furrowed his eyebrows but continued to punch his opponent in the chest.
The powerful force instantly sent Jared flying.
However, he did not use his spiritual energy to defend himself then and allowed his enemy to go all out on him instead.
