Chapter 779 Join Forces
Meanwhile, Hayden headed straight for Turcoln after leaving Nuthana. Since Jared had the support of the Medicine God Sect, it would be difficult for him to kill Jared by solely relying on the Empyrean Sect’s capabilities. That meant he would not be able to avenge Carlos’ death. Hence, he planned to join forces with Turcoln to achieve his goal.
Declan seethed with rage when he learned that his favorite disciple had died at the hands of Jared. I doted on Curtis the most! I have no sons or daughters of my own, so I taught him everything I knew. I even gave him the Sword of Evil in hopes that he would take over leadership of Turcoln someday. But now, he’s dead! All my efforts have been for naught!
Turcoln was well-known in the southwest, and everyone knew its name. Hence, the news that someone had killed Declan’s favorite disciple shocked the community to the core. All eyes were on Declan as they wondered how he would react.
“Just you wait, Jared Chance. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I’ll rip you to pieces, limb by limb!” Declan roared.
Fury radiated from his entire body as he slammed a fist down onto the table before him, smashing it to pieces.
The other Turcoln disciples were indignant as well. They had always gotten away with acting arrogantly in the southwest, and they had never suffered such humiliation before.
Hayden secretly smirked as he looked at the enraged Declan. He piped up, “It won’t be that hard to get rid of Jared, Master Naberhaus. He may have a trick or two up his sleeve and even managed to kill Xander, but it’ll be easy for me to deal with him. What’s more, you’ll be involved too. However, he was taken away by some people from the Medicine God Sect. He’s probably hiding there now, so it’ll be difficult for us to get our hands on him…”
“So what? Just as a debtor has to clear one’s debts with money, a murderer like him has to pay for his actions with his life. Even if it’s true that he has gone into hiding at the Medicine God Sect, I’ll definitely kill him…”
Declan’s eyes blazed with anger as he spoke. He was so consumed with rage that he could not care less if Jared was indeed hiding out at the Medicine God Sect.
“Master Naberhaus, he killed my son, and now he has killed your favorite disciple. The Empyrean Sect is willing to join forces with Turcoln to storm the Medicine God Sect and slaughter Jared!” Hayden declared excitedly.
With both of our forces combined, we’ll be able to rival the Medicine God Sect’s strength and capabilities. I doubt they’ll risk a confrontation with us for Jared’s sake.
Declan nodded. “Excellent. There’s no time to lose, so you should start making your preparations at once. I’ll round up a few others from the other clans to come with us and demand for the Medicine God Sect to hand over Jared.”
He knew full well that the Medicine God Sect was no pushover. Thus, he thought it’d be wise to get a few more people to join the fray and exert more pressure on the Medicine God Sect.
Hayden nodded, then hurried off to gather his men.
Meanwhile, Jared and the others had reached the foot of a mountain. The only way to the Medicine God Sect was through a winding and treacherous mountain path surrounded by dense woods. There were also beasts and parasites in the area. Occasionally, a miasma of poisonous vapors would hang in the air. Hence, few people dared to venture there.
After the others got out of the car, Donald parked the car to one side and took out a black hood.
In a respectful tone, he said, “Mr. Chance, the Medicine God Sect has a rule that all outsiders must have their eyes covered before entering…”
With Lyanna still in his arms, Jared nodded. Since the Medicine God Sect has set such a rule, it won’t do for me to go against it.
In truth, the hood served no purpose because Jared only had to use some spiritual sense to scope out his surroundings over a radius of tens of meters. Hence, he did not need his eyes to see.
