Chapter 2575Chapter 2575 Back At Long Last
“Don't worry, Mr. Antonio. Ali is fine. Someone is watching over him. Are those two b*stards still in the
village? I'll go and kill them right away!” Jared snarled furiously.
“Calm down, Jared. Francois has already left, leaving Brutus in the village alone. Can you defeat him
with your current capabilities?”
Antonio was worried that the man would not be Brutus' match even if he had returned.
When Jared heard that Francois had left and Brutus was the only one there, he grew all the more
confident.
“Don't worry, Mr. Antonio. I'll put Brutus through hell in front of everyone. Where is he now? Bring me to
him!” he declared confidently.
At his confidence, Antonio gave a bob of his head and led Jared over.
Right then, Brutus was eating, drinking, and shaking his head leisurely.
“There's no more wine, old coot! Hurry up and get me more!”
Brutus hollered for Antonio to bring him wine.
No sooner had his words rang out than a figure darted in and shot a palm out at him.
Sobering up immediately, Brutus went ballistic. “D*mn it! How dare you sneak up on me, you lowly
peasant!”
He whipped out his sword. In a trice, light flashed, permeating the entire room.As countless rays of light rent the room to shreds, Brutus leaped up before landing lightly at the side.
The moment he made out the person who sneaked up on him, he was wholly stunned.
“Ah, it's you, kid! You're back at long last!”
Glee showed on his face when he learned that it was Jared who had returned.
However, Jared said nary a word. The violence emanating from him pervaded the entire stretch of the
sky above Rock Village.
Following that, the glee on Brutus' face faded. Frowning, he asked, “What kind of capabilities do you
have, kid? How did they develop so fast in just a few days? Or were you keeping them under wraps
previously?”
From the man's aura alone, Brutus could tell that his capabilities had improved significantly.
It's only been a couple of days. How could a person's capabilities skyrocket so rapidly? If the surge did
not happen in the past few days, he must have kept his capabilities under wraps in the past!
“I'm going to avenge the villagers of Rock Village today and tear you into a million pieces!” Jared
enunciated.
“Hmph! You? Even if you had concealed your capabilities, you're still a lowly peasant. Could you
possibly go up against me, an official disciple of the Emerald Cauldron Sect? Today, I'll show you the
gulf between you, a nobody and a disciple of a renowned sect!”
After Brutus had finished saying that, the sword in his hand shimmered with a dazzling brilliance as he
charged toward the man.
He moved as fast as lightning, the messy sword energy shooting straight at Jared's throat.Jared swiftly retreated. Without warning, he stopped and flew backward out of Rock Village to land in
the forest outside.
“Since you've come, I'll never allow you to get away!”
Mistakenly assuming that the man wanted to take off, Brutus gave chase with a sneer.
Unfortunately, Jared was not trying to flee. Nor did he have any plans to do so. He merely did not want
to battle in Rock Village since the entire place would be ruined when people of their cultivation level
dueled.
Everyone in Rock Village watched nervously, feeling apprehensive on Jared's behalf.
In the face of Brutus, who chased after him, Jared struck a tree beside him.
The tree shook, and thousands of leaves fluttered off its branches. With a forward push of his palms,
the leaves whizzed toward Brutus like sharp weapons.
“Hmph! How amateurish!”
Brutus snorted before swinging the sword in his hand and striking down the leaves, one after another.
