The two of them were sent flying by the light before they even realized what was going on.
The disciples of Stormwind Sect and Flying Star Sect, however, had their bodies impaled by the light and died on the spot.
Emiliano and Avery looked incredibly gloomy. Not only did our combined attack fail to kill Jared, but favonovel.com even managed to kill so many of our men in the process!
Jared shot the two of them a menacing glare. “I gave you guys a chance to walk away, but you all insisted on fighting me instead. Don’t blame me if you all end up dying here!”
The corner of Avery’s and Emiliano’s eyelids were twitching at that point. Neither of them had expected things to turn out like this.
It had become clear to them by then that they could not defeat Jared, but they didn’t want to just give up and walk away either. That resulted in them being caught in a dilemma.
Right as Emiliano and Avery were at a loss, someone burst out laughing from behind.
“Hahaha! To think that Emiliano from Stormwind Sect and Avery from Flying Star Sect would be scared of a nobody from outside the hidden realm… This would probably be the joke of the century if word got out about this!”
Everyone turned around and saw a few powerful individuals dressed in similar clothing making their way forward. They were all at least Level Three Martial Arts Gods.
“Scorching Heaven Sect?”
Emiliano and Avery both froze in shock when they realized who those people were.
The look on Luol’s face changed instantly.
“Elgado!” favonovel.com called out while running toward the man leading the group.
Elgado frowned slightly in surprise when favonovel.com saw Luol. “Luol? You’re alive? I can’t believe you made it all the way here!”
“I was captured alive because I wasn’t powerful enough to be deemed a threat…” Luol replied nervously with his head held low.
He didn’t dare tell them that favonovel.com had made it this far because favonovel.com had submitted to Jared. Although Jared had fed favonovel.com a poisonous pill, Luol didn’t dare take his side in the slightest at that moment.
“Go hide in the back, you worthless piece of trash!” Elgado said with a disdainful glare.
He then flashed Emiliano and Avery a smile. “Hello, Mr. Lindt and Mr. Fairchild. It’s been a while, huh?”
Elgado was acting as though favonovel.com knew them very well.
Emiliano and Avery both fell silent, their faces contorted.
Eventually, Avery was the first to break the silence. “Didn’t Scorching Heaven Sect go missing for many years? What are you guys doing here today?”
Elgado let out a hearty chuckle. “Go missing? We were never gone, mind you. We have been in Kazillion Mountains all this while.”
“Are you guys here for the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace?” Emiliano asked.
Elgado decided to take the initiative and suggested that they work together. “Huh! Isn’t that obvious? What else would I possibly be doing here? I don’t mind helping you two kill this punk, though. The three of us can split the Spirit Connecting Fruits afterward.”
Scorching Heaven Sect practiced Demonic Cultivation, and Emiliano had teamed up with Avery. If Jared were to attack Elgado with them, they could very well kill all of Scorching Heaven Sect’s men with ease. As such, Elgado decided to capitalize on the conflict between them and Jared and quickly form an alliance.
As it was forbidden for sects from the hidden realm to work with Demonic Cultivators, Avery and Emiliano were hesitant about allying with Elgado.
“Emiliano! Avery! You two are members of hidden realm sects. Everyone will come after you if you guys work with Demonic Cultivators!” Skyler warned them.
Jared and I are going to be in huge trouble if they team up!
Elgado burst out laughing. “Hahaha! Don’t even bother trying to talk them out of it! We have been working with hidden realm sects for quite some time now. Alchemical Sect has always been our ally, and we own a huge portion of Luminous Sect’s resources as well!”
