Jared felt relieved when the Three Bandits told him they had found another exit. Even if the men from the Nesser family came in, he could still get out of there safely.
“I’ll pluck another heavenly thunder fruit and we’re pulling out. The strength of the heavenly thunder from the heavenly thunder tree is ridiculous!” Jared said.
His body couldn’t withstand another series of heavenly thunder strikes from the heavenly thunder tree anymore.
Taking in Jared’s charred body, Salazar couldn’t help asking, “Mr. Chance, can your body take it? Please don’t put your life at risk!” He didn’t want Jared to die because the three of them would suffer the same fate.
“What nonsense are you talking about, Salazar? Mr. Chance will surely be okay!” Crixus reprimanded Salazar before turning to Jared. “Mr. Chance, you look like you’ve reached your limit. Don’t force yourself!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” Jared moved toward the heavenly thunder tree once again. Before Jared could reach the heavenly thunder fruits, he was struck by the heavenly thunder tree.
He gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he grabbed one of the heavenly thunder fruits before plucking it off the tree.
Boom! Right after Jared plucked the heavenly thunder fruit, he was struck by another bolt of lightning. This time around, Jared was flung away into the distance like a kite with a broken thread and landed heavily on the ground.
“Mr. Chance!” The Three Bandits rushed toward Jared. “Let’s retreat! We need to leave now,” Jared instructed the Three Bandits.
At that point, Jared appeared to be extremely weak. Seeing that, the Three Bandits hurriedly carried Jared and ran toward the other exit.
Meanwhile, the people outside the cave were still resting, and the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk wasn’t attacking anyone. Both parties seemed to be minding their own business. Soon, however, the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk that was resting on a tree suddenly widened its eyes.
It let out a shriek and rose into the air. Jolted in surprise, Cameron immediately got ready to fight the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk.
To Cameron’s surprise, the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk flapped its wings and flew into the cave instead of launching an attack.
Cameron was baffled when he saw the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk flying into the cave in a state of panic. What is the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk doing?
Tyrone felt trouble was on the horizon when he saw the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk flying into the cave. Jared is still plucking the heavenly thunder fruits. If the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk flies in, he will be doomed. I won’t be able to share the heavenly thunder fruits with him anymore!
Tyrone shot the elderly woman a look, and they both dashed into the cave. A sense of foreboding crept into Cameron’s heart when he saw Tyrone going after the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk. He led his men into the cave as well.
After they followed the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk into Hawk King Cave, they saw the heavenly thunder tree, and most of the cultivators were in awe. Instead of stopping on the heavenly thunder. tree, the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk flew in another direction.
Everyone at the scene was bewildered upon seeing the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk flying away. What’s going on? What is the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk doing? Why is it not guarding the heavenly thunder tree?
Despite having those questions in their minds, none of them bothered to go after the Bloodthirsty Thunderhawk because they spotted the heavenly thunder fruits. Tyrone grew anxious when he couldn’t find Jared and the Three Bandits in the cave.
Seeing that only seven heavenly thunder fruits were left, Tyrone cursed, “F*ck! I’ve been tricked! That fellow ran away with three heavenly thunder fruits!”
Cameron soon noticed there were fewer heavenly thunder fruits left on the tree and realized why Tyrone had been stalling outside the cave.
