At that time, Archer and Skyler were staring at Jared with murderous intent. Although Jared didn’t know the reason behind it, he was certain those two weren’t his friends.
However, taking in that girl’s mien now, he could not sense any more malice. “Where am I? What’s your name? How many days have I been unconscious?” Jared asked Skyler.
“My name is Skyler Loulland. This place is Luminous Sect. It was my master who saved you and brought you here. You’ve been unconscious for three whole days. I almost thought you wouldn’t make it,” Skyler replied with a faint smile.
“Is Luminous Sect also a hidden sect like Stormwind Sect?” Jared asked. “There are certain things I’m not sure if I should tell you. I think it will be best if I call my master over.” After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.
However, right after she spun on her heels, Archer entered. A hint of anger flashed across his eyes when he noticed Jared had awakened. “You’re fortunate. To think that Master actually managed to revive you. I really don’t know what Master was thinking, giving his life-saving amp pill to this Demonic Cultivator.”
“Archer, Master mentioned he’s not a Demonic Cultivator, and I’m sure Master is right. Besides, how could a Demonic Cultivator garner so much faith energy? There must be some kind of misunderstanding. I’ll bring Master over now!” After saying that, Skyler left to call Matthew. Still, Archer continued boring his cold eyes into Jared.
Jared knew Archer must have misunderstood. him, so he hastily explained to the latter, “I’m really not a Demonic Cultivator. Absorbing Yosef’s power is just part of my technique’s abilities. I didn’t go around slaughtering innocent people and absorbing their powers to enhance my cultivation, nor have I ever killed an ordinary man. I hope you don’t misunderstand.”
Since they had rescued him, Jared felt it was necessary to clarify that matter. “Hmph! If you’re not a Demonic Cultivator, how could you injure the Martial Arts God, Garthor, when you’re just a Martial Arts Saint? Even I couldn’t do any damage to Garthor, so how come an insignificant Martial Arts Saint like you could harm him? You’re obviously a Demonic Cultivator who used some unknown Demonic Cultivation technique!”
Archer snorted, not believing Jared’s claim at all. Jared opened his mouth but was at a loss for words to explain himself. At that moment, an aged and stern voice sounded.
“Archer, you must change your arrogant temperament. Just because you can’t achieve something, does not mean others can’t. You would be better off focusing on your cultivation than harboring jealousy toward others!” Matthew entered and scolded Archer.
Archer lowered his head and fell silent. “Jared, this is my master, the leader of Luminous Sect, Matthew Campbell,” Skyler introduced. “Mr. Campbell, thank you for saving my life,” Jared politely expressed his gratitude to Matthew.
“You’re welcome. Saving lives and healing the wounded are things we, members of the martial arts world, should do. Unfortunately, there are too many people who forgot their original intention of being a cultivator as they became overly invested in pursuing fame and power. Nevertheless, I’m delighted to see you. recover,” Matthew chirped, smiling kindly.
However, right after he finished his sentence, his visage changed drastically, and he immediately started coughing violently. Even his breathing turned rapid. Seeing that, Archer and Skyler stepped forward at once to support their master.
“Skyler, hurry up and give Master his medication,” Archer said to Skyler. “Okay.” She nodded and swiftly removed a porcelain bottle from Matthew’s pocket, then poured a pill out.
The medication was placed inside Matthew’s mouth, and soon after, he quickly recuperated. “I’ve had this condition for a long time. I’m sorry you had to see that.” Matthew flashed an awkward smile at Jared. Meanwhile, Skyler, who was holding the porcelain bottle, uttered with a frown, “Master, y-you only have one amp pill left?”
