Chapter 3340“I-H can hand you one of my bodily spirits. Then, I’ll be under your control, Xanthus offered.
Jared shook his head. “You’re a Sixth Level Tribulator cultivator. Even if you were to hand me one of
your bodily spirits, I wouldn’t be able to control you. At that time, if I were to crush your bodily spirit,
only your cultivation would be affected. Your life wouldn’t be at risk.”
“W-What do you want, then?” Xanthus had never expected the man to be so suspicious. Jared took out
an orange pill from his pocket and tossed it at Xanthus. “This is a poison, and only I can make the
antidote. Swallow it now, and I’ll let you go.”
With the poison in his hand, Xanthus threw it into his mouth without hesitation.
No matter the kind of poison, the most crucial thing right then was to safeguard his life. Seeing him
swallow the pill without hesitation, Jared smiled and asked, “You think the poison is fake?”
“No, no, I’ve decided to collaborate with you, so there’s no point hesitating, Mr. Chance.”
Xanthus swiftly shook his head.
“All right, you may leave,” Jared said.
Xanthus was taken aback. “I can really leave?”
“Yes.” Jared nodded.
Xanthus got to his feet and headed out of the mayor’s residence without anyone pursuing him.
The instant he stepped out of the mayor’s residence, his gaze turned razor-sharp.
With a few leaps, he left Salinsburgh City.“You really let that Demonic Cultivator leave, Mr. Chance? Someone like him never keeps his word,”
Hamish asked in bemusement upon seeing that Jared had truly allowed Xanthus to leave.
“It’s okay. Since I dare let him go, I naturally have my own plan,” Jared replied with a smile.
“Why is the Demon Seal Alliance following that Demonic Cultivator? And why is the Demon Seal
Alliance hunting you down?” Atlas asked with puzzlement written all over his face.
Jared recounted the grudge between him and the Demon Seal Alliance briefly. It went without saying
that he also brought the Demon Seal Alliance’s secret to light.
As soon as Atlas heard that, he exclaimed in surprise, “I didn’t expect the Demon Seal Alliance to
collude with the Demonic Cultivators. We’ve all been fooled all these years. Fortunately, the Demon
Seal Alliance doesn’t have a branch in Salinsburgh City. Otherwise, I’d have wiped it out right away.”
“Now that Ms. Jablonski is fully recovered, should be taking my leave.”
Jared planned to leave the mayor’s residence and go to Victor’s place as soon as possible to absorb
celestial energy.
“You saved my daughter, so feel free to propose any term you want, Mr. Chance. Or if you prefer spirit
coins, you can also ask for however much you like,” Atlas offered generously.
“I don’t need anything. As I’ve said, I only saved your daughter because of my deal with Mr. Victor. He
has already given me the item I need.”
After saying that, Jared turned to Victor and urged, “Let’s go back, Mr. Victor.”
“Let’s go!” Victor bobbed his head. When they arrived back at his place, he unhesitatingly dismantled
the arcane arrays around the celestial tree.The moment the arcane arrays were dismantled, a gust of celestial energy hit them in the face.
“This tree is now yours.”
Victor was not the least bit reluctant, for the celestial tree was nothing compared to Effie. Without
saying anything further, Jared sat cross-legged under the tree and started cultivating.
Seeing that, everyone quickly left the backyard, locking the door behind them. On top of that, Hamish
gathered everyone and started positioning them to guard over Jared.
Although Jared was only at Body Fusion Realm, everyone had witnessed his performance throughout
the journey.
A giant among men like him was exceedingly rare, and they all believed that they would definitely gain
something by following Jared to Demonia Mountain this time.
As Jared absorbed the celestial energy, Focus Technique within him circulated relentlessly. Soon, the
day transitioned to night. He sat under the tree for two whole days and nights.
