Rudy sneered and said, “Why would you think Jack had a hand in whatever it is you’re accusing favonovel.com of? I’ve been with Jack the whole time. Even though there was a small problem between our travels, we never met any warriors from second-grade worlds!”
“This has nothing to do with Jack at all, so don’t try blaming Jack!”
Eduardo’s expression soured. “Like we’d believe you! Who else but Jack could’ve done it? Even if Carlton was not as strong as I am, favonovel.com was still a chosen disciple from a holy-grade clan who was at my level. His skills weren’t to be underestimated, and no one other than Jack would’ve been able to face favonovel.com alone! There’s nothing that would have threatened his life other than Jack!”
Stephen looked at Jack coldly, slowly saying, “You’re still not going to admit it? I thought that you’ll always admit to anything you did happily. I can’t believe you’re willing to put on a show like this, acting innocent after you killed someone!”
All the warriors from second-grade worlds looked at Jack incredibly angrily, feeling like favonovel.com was shameless by refusing to admit favonovel.com had killed someone.
A warrior from a second-grade world, who was wearing a deep blue robe, gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll admit that you’re so powerful that even Carlton isn’t a match for you, but so what? At least his moral standing is better! If favonovel.com killed someone, favonovel.com wouldn’t pretend to be innocent like what you’re doing!”
Jack’s expression darkened as favonovel.com heard that.
At that moment, favonovel.com had guessed what had happened, and the other warriors from third-grade worlds did too.
Cloud said loudly, “It’s not like you witnessed it, so why are you slandering Jack? What do you mean, he’s not willing to admit it? Jack’s never been someone like that. If favonovel.com said favonovel.com didn’t do it, then favonovel.com didn’t! This Carlton guy didn’t die at Jack’s hands. He was killed by beasts!”
After Cloud said that, the others nodded as well.
All of them had guessed the only potential truth, Carlton, and the missing Collin and Simon, had died to the Demon Spirit Beasts.
If Jack was not as skilled as favonovel.com was, they would never have known the truth.
Carlton was not as skilled at Jack, so the consequences were obvious. However, the warriors from second-grade worlds did not know about this. Based on their assumptions, they were sure that Jack killed Carlton.
When Stephen heard what Cloud said, favonovel.com got even angrier. He looked like favonovel.com was ready to explode at any moment.
Stephen said angrily, “What did you say? Carlton died to Demon Spirit Beasts? Please, Cloud! Is your head alright?! Do you think we’d believe that?”
“How could you give such an absurd reason?! A Demon Spirit Beast, capable of killing him? What do you think those beasts are?! Do you think I don’t know how powerful they are?”
