Chapter 1487 Targeted
If it weren’t for Salvador and the others, I probably wouldn’t have been able to come back. Without a boat, it would’ve been nigh impossible for me to get ashore.
“Well, it looks like I wouldn’t accidentally kill anyone innocent even if I were to slaughter the entire martial arts world of Jadeborough.”
Jared’s eyes glinted coldly. Tonight will be a night whereby the entire martial arts world of Jadeborough is turned upside down!
“I’ve told you everything I know. Please spare me. I won’t tell anyone anything. I can leave Jadeborough and go somewhere far away…” Jace pleaded.
Tears streamed down his face, rendering him very much pitiful.
“I only believe in a dead man’s promise.”
Having said that, Jared shot his hand out and slammed it on the man’s head.
In no time, Jace turned into a mummified body. The whole Cox family was obliterated without a single person spared.
Putting his mask back on, Jared languidly walked out of the Cox residence.
“Let’s head to the next family.”
His back soon disappeared into the dark night.
The following morning, the entire martial arts world of Jadeborough plunged into an uproar.
In a single night, thirteen sects had been wiped out.
All elites of Martial Arts Marquis and above became mummified bodies, making it evident that their powers had been absorbed by someone else.
“The martial arts world in Jadeborough is going into chaos. Who was so bold to massacre thirteen sects in one go?”
“All those sects have joined the Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough. Isn’t this a slap in the face to the Warriors Alliance?”
“This is definitely the doing of Demonic Cultivators! Otherwise, why would the dead have ended up being mummified bodies?”
“Oh God, we’re doomed! Things are going to change drastically. Demonic Cultivators have started making their appearances openly once again!”
Countless speculations deluged the Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough.
At Warriors Alliance at that very moment, several mummified bodies were placed in front of Zion.
A word was etched on every single mummified body.
Combined together, they read: Death will come to all who join the Warriors Alliance.
It was clear as day that the mass murders targeted the Warriors Alliance.
“Who exactly is it? Who’s targeting the Warriors Alliance?”
Pounding his hand on the table, Zion sprang to his feet furiously.
Conversely, Skylar crouched beside the mummified bodies. He gently placed his hand on each body, seemingly sensing something.
Shortly after, he stood up. “President Zeigler, while their powers had been absorbed, it wasn’t the doing of a Demonic Cultivator. The perpetrator might have done it to mislead us and divert our attention.”
“Who could it be? Since it wasn’t a Demonic Cultivator, who else knows the technique of absorbing powers from a living person?” Zion wondered with a frown upon hearing that.
Skylar was likewise mystified then. After all, no one dared to publicly go against the Warriors Alliance, considering its current might.
That aside, the person who killed all those elites was no ordinary person. Ultimately, someone who could annihilate thirteen sects in a night was undoubtedly powerful.
Nonetheless, he didn’t dare contemplate how powerful that person was exactly. With his present capabilities, it was somewhat difficult for him to do the same.
“Are there no survivors?”
Skylar proceeded to toss that question out to the person who had been to the crime scenes.
“No, Mr. Norton. Even the dogs were all killed,” the person answered.
Skylar’s brows creased. A trace of panic crept into him in the face of such a vicious opponent. The perpetrator is downright ruthless!
“It seems that we’ve got to notify the authorities. This matter has gone beyond our capabilities. The perpetrator is truly too powerful.”
Terrified, Zion wanted to have the authorities deal with the matter instead.
Skylar kept silent, his expression dark. He had his eyes closed lightly as though pondering about something.
Moments later, he opened his eyes and shifted his gaze to Zion. “Did you send Salvador and the others to collect beast cores, President Zeigler?”
Nodding, Zion admitted, “Yes. But they should come back these few days. Even if they can’t make it back, they will notify me about their progress.”
