Chapter 840 Cursed Child
After getting spat a mouthful of blood, the doll was immediately surrounded by a cloud of black mist. A menacing look then appeared on the doll’s face before turning itself into a child with two fangs.
That scene was enough to get Colin and his subordinates to pee in their pants. Although they were all martial artists, they had never seen something like that. Hence, all of them started to back away hastily.
“Are you backing away?” Jared froze for a second when he saw the terrifyingly hideous child. He then quickly regained his composure and shouted at Colin, “The cursed child is poisonous! Get out of there!”
Upon hearing that, Colin and the others scrambled away.
However, one of Colin’s subordinates didn’t get away in time. A black figure was seen flashing across the man. Suddenly, the cursed child appeared on the man’s shoulders and sank its fangs into the man’s body.
Colin’s subordinate instantly let out an agonized scream.
The fangs were releasing negative energy into the man’s body. In a blink of an eye, the body of the man from the Zare family turned black. His eyes were wide open, revealing a sinister and horrifying expression.
Slowly, the man stopped breathing and fell stiffly to the ground. After that, the cursed child quickly moved to the next target.
Seeing that, Colin, Kenneth, and even Kristoff were stumped.
Sylvester, who was hiding in the dark, was also utterly frightened. He never thought the Demonic Cultivator would still be so strong, albeit heavily injured. The more he thought about it, the deeper the fear set in. And I thought I could kill him before I leave the island. I’d most probably be dead before I could hurt him.
Right then, Jared leaped into the air and dashed toward the cursed child.
Thump!
With a hard kick, Jared sent the cursed child flying.
The cursed child landed right next to the man in a suit, hardly breathing.
The cursed child and Demonic Cultivator were linked to each other. Hence, he was even nearer to death when he summoned the cursed child despite being incredibly weak himself.
However, it seemed like the man in a suit knew he was going to die, regardless. That was why he summoned the cursed child, despite the risks.
Colin’s face was filled with terror when he asked Jared, “W… What is that?”
Jared frowned and explained, “That’s a cursed child. Every Demonic Cultivator has one. However, it is something only a Martial Arts Grandmaster could do. Judging by how big that guy’s cursed child was, I guess he’s at least a Fourth Level Martial Arts Grandmaster.” If he wasn’t injured by Ice Dragon in the first place, I bet none of them could’ve taken him on.
The man in a suit got up slowly and opened his mouth. The cursed child suddenly transformed into a cloud of black mist and went into the man’s body. With that, a new puppet appeared in the man’s hands.
The man in a suit kept the puppet in his pocket and gradually backed away.
He then gazed in the direction where Sylvester and the others were hiding.
“Is this what you meant when you formed an alliance with me? Are you guys just going to stand by and watch?” the man in a suit fumed.
Upon seeing that, Jared used his spiritual sense and saw where Sylvester and the others were hiding. I was so focused on the man in a suit that I didn’t even notice there were people hiding there.
Sylvester knew he couldn’t keep hiding anymore, so he stepped forward with his men.
The man in a suit just kept glaring at Sylvester.
“What nonsense are you talking about? The Cooper family is a prominent family! Why would we work together with a Demonic Cultivator like you? Stop slandering me!” Sylvester had no interest in working with the man in a suit anymore since he had been badly injured.
The man in a suit was deeply infuriated upon hearing those words. “Fine! How dare you call yourself a prominent family when you go back on your words? You’re pathetic!”
