Chapter 1480 My Sword Can Slay Everything
Salvador’s brows were knitted together in confusion. Back when we left, there were thousands of beast cores here. Why is this place empty now? Only over a month has passed since we left.
“Salvador, do you think other sects or families might have snuck into this city to steal the beast cores?” one of them asked.
Salvador nodded in response. “That might be a possibility.”
After the previous Trial, many sects and families got to know the existence of this city. They could’ve risked their lives to sneak here to obtain all the beast cores for themselves.
“Come, let’s go back and report this matter to President Zeigler. This is a serious incident,” Salvador declared.
He knew that it was a grave matter.
If one sect or family had gotten all the beast cores for themselves, the leading power in the Jadeborough martial arts world would change hands soon.
After all, the vast resources available here would be able to nurture many elite fighters.
Salvador and the rest were about to leave when they suddenly stopped in their tracks and turned to look over their shoulders in confusion.
That was because they realized an aura had locked onto them. They dared not move an inch.
After turning around, they saw Jared walking out of his hiding spot. Shock crossed their faces.
“Jared, you’re still alive?” Salvador demanded, his voice full of disbelief and horror.
“You people are still alive, so how can I die before you?” Jared sneered.
His face turned dark as a murderous intent enveloped his body.
These four men only got to increase their strength thanks to Josephine’s blood.
At the thought of how much suffering Josephine must be going through, Jared couldn’t stop hatred from overwhelming his heart.
The four grew cautious after sensing Jared’s murderous intent.
“Everyone, let’s charge at Jared together and kill him. If we head back with his head, President Zeigler will give us a huge reward!” Salvador told the other three.
The rest nodded in agreement and unleashed their energy to attack Jared.
They were all Martial Arts Marquises, so their combined strength was nothing to scoff at.
“Ha! You fools have a death wish,” Jared declared as he snorted icily.
His body trembled slightly as a horrifying burst of spiritual energy launched into the air.
As Jared had achieved the third realm of Nascent Soul, his strength had increased exponentially. Before Salvador and the other three could come any nearer to him, they were sent flying by the terrifying spiritual energy.
“You!” Salvador spluttered, failing to form a complete sentence.
He stared at Jared incredulously.
Did Jared increase his strength to such a horrifying level in just over one month? I can’t believe it!
“Jared, you’re stuck here, and without a boat, you can’t escape. Why don’t we strike a deal? If you let us go, we shall bring you back to land.” After sensing the intensely powerful aura that Jared gave off, Salvador tried negotiating with him.
“If I kill you, I’ll still get the boat and would be able to return to land myself,” Jared responded as his gaze and aura turned increasingly icy.
The next moment, Jared splayed his hand, and the Dragonslayer Sword appeared in it. The weapon started buzzing loudly with the help of the Power of Dragons.
Along with Jared’s strength, the sword spirit within the Dragonslayer Sword had also matured a lot.
The Dragonslayer Sword buzzed eagerly as though it was thirsty for blood.
The four quickly brandished their weapons and gazed at Jared gravely.
“My sword can slay everything,” Jared uttered.
He then took one step forward and swung his sword out.
The terrifying power behind that blow caused a huge gust of wind to hurtle straight for the four men.
Seeing that, Salvador let out a roar and brandished his short dagger to block the incoming attack.
The other three also unleashed their martial energy to stop Jared’s sword.
