Chapter 798 Brazen
Axton and the other elders were truly impressed by his liberality, especially considering Jared’s young age.
The reason that Jared left the items behind was that he did not know whether he could return safely from the trip to Nameless Island. If I don’t leave these in their possession, aren’t they going to lose their treasured inheritance?
Jared ordered people to fetch him a pen and paper. Then, he transcribed the Holy Guide to Pill Crafting based on his memory. He also swapped the copper cauldron that was about a man’s height for the Divine Cauldron in the Medicine God Hall.
Axton and the other elders were thrilled at the sight of the full transcription of the Holy Guide to Pill Crafting and the Divine Cauldron. These items were of utmost importance to the sect, after all.
They had devoted most of their lives to pill crafting. As such, they believed that the two items would greatly enhance the efficiency of their craft.
Just when Jared was done with everything, a guard of the sect rushed inside and announced aloud, “Mr. Knox, a number of people have swarmed the entrance of Medicine God Sect and demanded us to hand over somebody…”
“Hand over… somebody?” Axton furrowed his brows, puzzled.
Jared recalled something and said, “It should be Hayden Xuereb from the Empyrean Sect. I think he’s found an acquaintance in seeking revenge from me.”
Only Hayden knew that Jared had come to Medicine God Sect. He was also the only plausible person to demand somebody from Medicine God Sect.
“How dare he! I will kill him for stirring trouble at Medicine God Sect!” Axton snapped in fury.
He did not think that Hayden had the audacity to come after he graciously let the latter off the hook last time.
Killing Hayden was a piece of cake to Axton.
The other elders were still oblivious to what transpired. However, they were likewise infuriated that a brazen fellow came provoking them.
“Let’s go check it out. Don’t strike unless it is truly necessary. You guys have depleted your energy just now and have yet to recuperate,” Jared advised Axton.
Axton and the elders had exhausted a lot of their energy trying to defend against the lethal intent tornado. Since they did not have time to replenish, they would surely be at a disadvantage should they engage in a fight.
“As you wish, My Lord.”
Jared’s words were as good as a command to Axton, now that Jared was the new Lord of Medicine God Sect.
Axton led the elders out of the sect, and there were already over ten martial artists standing guard at the entrance of Medicine God Sect as they cast threatening looks at the people before them.
On the other side, Hayden and Declan led hundreds of men from the Empyrean Sect and Turcoln respectively as they crowded the entrance of the sect, each with a murderous aura to them.
As soon as the elders stepped out of the sect, Hayden and Declan transfixed their daggered stares at Axton, as if they were about to skin the latter alive.
After all, they deemed it imperative to seek revenge against Axton for killing their son and dearest disciple.
“Hayden, how dare you bring people to cause trouble here at Medicine God Sect when I’ve gracefully let you off the hook back then? What do you take Medicine God Sect for?” Axton chided.
“Mr. Knox, why bother conversing with them? We should just take the lives of those who dare to cause a scene at Medicine God Sect!” Damian, the third-ranking elder, who was donning a black robe, demanded as he exuded a murderous aura.
The elders were all Martial Arts Grandmasters. Even though Damian was of the same rank, he still paled in comparison with the elders of the sect. Hence, Damian felt chills down his spine at the sight of the vexed third-ranking elder.
However, he soon calmed down as he turned to Declan. Hayden then turned his attention back to Axton and said, “Jared Chance has killed my son, and I must avenge my son! Rest assured that I do not wish to bring trouble to Medicine God Sect. As long as you hand over Jared, we will leave immediately. Besides, I am offering to gift the sect with century-old precious herbs as compensation for my imposition.”
