Chapter 2509 RescuedIn the mountains in Ethereal Realm, ancient trees towered into the sky amidst a dense forest.
Beneath a tall and thick tree, a figure lay motionless on the ground as though dead.
A wild wolf slowly approached. It trained its eyes on the figure before darting them around warily. After
ascertaining that no one was lying in wait, it ambled over and sniffed lightly.
Then, it gently nudged the figure with a paw. Upon seeing that the man remained motionless, it finally
let its guard down and opened its mouth to sink its teeth into the supple flesh.
Just when it did that, an arrow abruptly shot toward it.
Whoosh!
The arrow immediately pierced its body. Injured, the wolf let out a howl and spun around to flee, giving
up the person before it.
Unexpectedly, five or six people sprinted over from a near distance away. All of them held weapons
and surrounded the wolf.
As the wolf was injured, it was killed in no time.
It was only after they had it finished off that they strode over to the figure.
When they laid eyes on the figure lying on the ground, a girl among them cried out, “Jared!”She was none other than Emily, whom Jared rescued in Ethereal Realm not long ago.
That day, she went hunting with Ali and a few other young men from the village. Little did she expect
that she would end up saving Jared.
Right then, Jared was as pale as a sheet. His eyes were shut, and his aura was unprecedentedly
weak. It was as though he would die anytime.
Beside him lay the Divine Bow, which he had not had the time to put into his Storage Ring when he
was sucked into the black hole.
“How did he get so severely injured? His aura is exceedingly weak, and it's as though all his energy
has been drained away.”
As Ali scrutinized Jared, his brows knitted together deeply.
After all, he had personally witnessed the latter's capabilities. Hmm, he's such a powerful person, yet
he's severely injured. Could it be that there are other formidable fighters nearby?
At once, his guard went up. The residents of Rock Village there mainly hunted and gathered medicinal
herbs for a living, never having met anyone particularly powerful. But considering the fact that even
someone with Jared's capabilities had been injured grievously, the other party must be superior to the
man.
Now that such a powerful person has suddenly appeared near the village, it's imperative for me to be
vigilant. If that individual has his sights set on Rock Village, it'd be the end of us all! “Quick, take the wolf's carcass! We're leaving right away!” he quickly ordered.
In a trice, a few men lifted the wolf's carcass. Meanwhile, Emily turned to Ali and implored, “Ali, please
save Jared. If it weren't for him back then, I would've been eaten by a demon beast!”
Her eyes shimmered with tears as she begged the man.
Although Jared saved Emily previously and did nothing to Rock Village, Ali had long since been wary of
him.
novelbinTo his dismay, they crossed paths again this time. He did not want to save Jared or bring trouble to
Rock Village. If the latter's enemy were to learn that they rescued him, the entire village would be
doomed.
“It's not that I don't want to save him, Emily. Judging from the beating he received, the other person
definitely harbors a deep-seated grudge against him. If we were to save him and his enemy came
knocking on our door, the entire Rock Village would be annihilated,” Ali explained.
Emily understood the man's concern and the danger it would bring to Rock Village. Hence, she stated,
“You all leave, Ali. I'll stay and keep Jared company.”
“This place is filled with demon beasts, Emily. You'd doubtlessly get eaten if you were to stay here.
Moreover, he's going to be dead soon. We can't save him at all!” Ali coaxed.
“If Jared dies, I'll die with him. This life of mine is from him, so I'll return it to him since I can't save him,”
Emily asserted.
