With all his strength, Heinrik unleashed a spiritual shield, hoping to block Jared’s punch!
However, after his prolonged battle with the ice bear, his spiritual power was significantly depleted. Even when he exerted all his strength to form a spiritual energy shield, he feared it might not be able to withstand a single blow from Jared!
As the golden light erupted, Jared’s punch effortlessly pierced through the spiritual shield, landing a fierce blow on Heinrik’s body!
Heinrik’s body flew toward the distance, much like a kite that had slipped its string!
In mid-air, Heinrik spewed fresh blood, tracing an arc!
With a mighty impact, Heinrik crashed into the rock wall, causing the entire small mountain to rumble loudly!
Upon witnessing that scene, Edward and Stuart exchanged a glance before turning to flee!
The truth had been exposed, and staying meant certain death for them!
“Hmph, thought you could escape, did you? It’s not that easy!” Lauden gave a cold huff, leaping up in a swift motion, blocking the path of the two individuals!
The ice bears around were glaring fiercely!
“Mr. Delacroix, we were wrong. This whole affair was orchestrated by Heinrik.”
“Considering we share the same lineage and teachings, spare us this time, please!”
Edward and Stuart were pleading with Lauden!
They didn’t know what happened to Heinrik after Jared landed a punch on the latter, so they didn’t have the guts to even consider harming Lauden!
Lauden looked at the two, his eyes brimming with anger as he said, “If you had admitted your mistakes earlier, I wouldn’t have taken action against you. After all, we’ve worked together for many years. However, you all, for the sake of your own gains, dared to poison Mr. Cervantes. This is unforgivable. If our ancestors were alive, they, too, would never forgive you!”
Upon witnessing the situation, Edward and Stuart realized that Lauden was determined to back them into a corner that day. Gritting their teeth, they declared, “Fine, if you’re going to be so ruthless, then we’ll fight to the end!”
Having said that, the two immediately took action against Lauden!
Lauden had only recently become a Ninth Level Tribulator cultivator, so they were fully capable of dealing with him if they joined forces!
Just as the two of them were about to take action, a phantom figure arrived in an instant. Jared had already reached the side of Lauden, his eyes sparkling with a sharp brilliance, filled with lethal intent!
Dragonslayer Sword in his hand hummed impatiently, as if it couldn’t wait to be unleashed!
“You two seem to have forgotten about me.” Jared let out a cold laugh!
Upon seeing Jared, Edward and Stuart felt a wave of tension gripped them both. However, given the circumstances, they had no choice but to give it their all!
“Die!” The two of them were yelling, heading straight toward Jared and Lauden!
Jared’s eyes were filled with disdain. He was no longer someone who could be dealt with by an Eighth Level Tribulator!
A while back, he was driven to a state of utter desperation!
In just a few short days, Jared was able to completely disregard those people!
Dragonslayer Sword in his hand erupted with a wave of heat, as a fierce, all-consuming flame surged upward!
With a swift strike, a roaring flame dragon was unleashed!
Facing the fire dragon, Stuart stomped his feet onto the ground, and suddenly, walls of earth erupted from beneath!
The hard ground beneath the feet of Stuart was instantly lifted up!
However, to Jared, that mud wall was as flimsy as paper in the face of his fire dragon heart, serving absolutely no purpose at all!
Boom!
The fire dragon pierced through the body of Stuart, igniting instantly!
“Ah!” Stuart let out a chilling scream!
Lauden cast a somewhat reluctant glance, then leaped into action, striking down at Edward with a swift palm strike!
Edward also gave it his all, his palms facing each other!
Bang!
With a dull thud, the body of Edward suddenly sunk into the ground, leaving only his upper half exposed!
Edward was spitting blood, his mouth agape as if pleading for mercy, but he couldn’t manage to utter a single word!
Lauden, unable to bear it any longer, turned around and left straight away because Jared could take care of the rest.
Jared, on the other hand, pulled out a handful of red powder and scattered it into the air!
The venomous parasites and ice bears charged forward, letting out ferocious roars.
Jared took advantage of Blazing Stride to make his exit, leaving behind the barely alive Heinrik and Edward, who were being torn apart by the ice bear and venomous parasites.
