“Demon Seal Alliance?” Hearing the name “Demon Seal Alliance,” Jared, Quinley, and Cloud furrowed their brows.
Since Jared had killed a few members of the Five Slayers from Demon Seal Alliance, they reckoned he might already be on the latter’s hit list. The abrupt appearance of the head of a Demon Seal Alliance’s subbranch might complicate the situation.
“What’s the matter? Haven’t you heard of Demon Seal Alliance?” Seeing their reactions, Zordey assumed they were clueless about Demon Seal Alliance’s existence.
“We’ve heard of them, but he’s just the head of a subbranch, so why does everyone appear to be so afraid of him? Even you seem wary,” Jared inquired.
This time, instead of boasting, Zordey bobbed his head. “I’m indeed scared of him too. The influence of Demon Seal Alliance spans the entire Ethereal Realm, so even the head of a subbranch can throw his weight around in this region. I wouldn’t dare cross him. I can confidently say that others share my sentiments. Do you know why the business of the dock’s spirit ships is so thriving, yet there isn’t any competition for this commercial activity, and no one dares to board the ships forcibly? Everyone has to purchase the tickets compliantly,” Zordey said mysteriously.
“Why is that?” Jared asked.
“That’s because Demon Seal Alliance is backing the owner of this dock’s spirit ship transportation business. With their support, who would dare compete or board without a ticket? I advise you to stay away from that Fayzon. He may look young, but he’s very formidable and ruthless!”
While discussing Fayzon, Zordey was visibly anxious as he was afraid Fayzon would hear him.
Jared fell into deep thought. It seems Fayzon’s cultivation level must surpass Body Fusion Realm. If he’s a First or Second Level Tribulator, I may still match up to him. Even if I don’t, I can flee. However, if he’s stronger than that, it’ll be challenging to deal with him. Moreover, with Quinley and Cloud by my side, I can’t possibly abandon them and leave them to their own devices, right?
Amidst Jared’s rumination, Fayzon had reached the bow of the ship. A trace of envy flashed across his eyes when he saw Montane Daemon riding the divine turtle.
“It’s you, Mr. Leaveden. Aren’t you going to tame one and have some fun with it?” Montane Daemon greeted Fayzon with a smile, looking as if they were closely acquainted.
“Of course, but I aim to tame one bigger than yours.” After glancing around, Fayzon leaped toward the largest divine turtle present.
The greater the size of the divine turtle, the more powerful they were and, in turn, more demanding to bring to heel. At that moment, Fayzon was clearly targeting the largest divine turtle to outdo Montane Daemon.
“Hahaha! You’re indeed a brash and spirited young man, Mr. Leaveden, wanting to tame the biggest among the divine turtles on your first attempt!” Montane Daemon chortled.
Others also shifted their attention to Fayzon. “I wonder if the head of a Demon Seal Alliance’s subbranch is capable of taming that divine turtle.”
“I think it’ll be a breeze for him. After all, any person who can become the head of a Demon Seal Alliance’s subbranch must be outstanding.”
“That’s not necessarily the case. This largest divine turtle will be very tough to subdue.”
The onlookers debated heatedly. Some had faith in Fayzon’s abilities, while others doubted him. A few even started placing bets on the outcome.
Cloud stepped forward and asked Jared in an undertone, “Mr. Chance, do you think that guy will succeed?”
After observing for a moment, Jared shook his head. “Very unlikely.”
As soon as he finished saying that, Fayzon was tossed into the air by the divine turtle. Witnessing that, several individuals dressed in robes bearing the eight trigrams symbol instantly panicked.
“Mr. Leaveden!”
They jumped up at once, bounding over in Fayzon’s direction.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, the divine turtle shot out a few water columns from its nostrils. In mere moments, three men dressed in robes. bearing the eight trigrams symbol were killed, their bodies plummeting into the Night Sea.
The rest of them hurriedly escorted Fayzon back to the spirit ship.
