When Zayan turned around and looked at Xavion, he was surprised to see an expression of lingering excitement on Xavion’s face. He found it strange, not understanding what Xavion had seen to evoke such a reaction.
If he knew that Xavion’s insistence on continuing the deduction was solely for the sake of observing women, he would probably be infuriated.
“Mr. Xavion, Jared is with a group with several formidable cultivators among them. So, when it comes to capturing him, it’s more prudent to entrust the task to the Demon Seal Alliance’s branch. It’s not advisable for you to intervene at this point,” Zayan advised Xavion.
“Mr. Cabeza, the more challenging it is, the more we should personally take action. The branch is probably not capable enough to capture Jared,” Xavion insisted on capturing Jared personally.
However, at this moment, he wasn’t just focused on capturing Jared as he also had his eyes on the three girls in the group.
In the desolate Demonia Mountain, Xavion would feel less lonely if he were accompanied by three girls.
When he was at the Demon Seal Alliance headquarters, Talcott had forbidden him from indulging in romantic pursuits to increase his strength rapidly. Now that he was out, with no one to restrict him, he wanted to have fun.
Zayan shot Xavion a helpless look.
“Go immediately and gather all the Demon Seal Alliance disciples you can summon,” he ordered the two branch leaders.
“Got it!” The branch leaders left to gather reinforcements.
“Also, find all the Soulless Hall members you can. With the rampant Demonic Cultivators in Demonia Mountain, there must be members of Soulless Hall here,” Zayan commanded Xanthus who was from Soulless Hall.
Now that Xavion’s interest in causing trouble had escalated, Zayan had no choice but to deploy additional manpower.
Talcott had only one precious son, and if anything happened to him, none of them would survive. Xanthus bobbed his head and left alone to find the members of Soulless Hall.
Zayan turned to Xavion and said, “Mr. Xavion, I need to recover, so let’s stay here and wait until they return with the rest.”
“Sure. Anything you say.” Xavion nodded in agreement.
On the other hand, Jared and the rest continued to trek deep into Demonia Mountain. As they knew someone was spying on them, they proceeded with caution.
“Why does it feel so eerie here?” Kiara pulled her collar together as they moved forward.
“The lethal intent on Demonia Mountain is heavy. With your cultivation level being lower, being shrouded in lethal intent for a long time might make you feel this way. Here, take this pill. It should help.” Jared took out a pill and handed it to Kiara.
Kiara glanced at Jared and swallowed the pill without hesitation. Soon, her body felt warm, and the eerie feeling disappeared.
“No wonder Demonic Cultivators love Demonia Mountain. The lethal intent here is thick, perfect for their cultivation,” Misho remarked.
“Everyone, shield your meridians with spiritual energy. Prolonged exposure to these negative energy and lethal intent could cause issues,” Jared reminded everyone.
Everyone protected their meridians and continued forward. Along the way, they encountered many corpses of demon beasts and some cultivators who had met unfortunate ends.
Clearly, these cultivators had entered Demonia Mountain and encountered the demon beasts. After they died, their corpses were left here.
However, no one would waste time mourning over someone else’s death. This was the harsh reality of Demonia Mountain. Everyone had risked their life to be here, not knowing when danger would strike. However, danger also came with opportunities.
As the group moved forward, Jared suddenly stopped and shouted, “There’s a Demonic Cultivator!”
Hearing that, everyone immediately prepared for battle.
