Hence, Jared was certain that the old man must be an expert, not to mention the kind whose aura even favonovel.com couldn’t detect.
“You’re just passing by, yet you killed two of my demon beasts. You should know that I raised these beasts as food. Since you killed my demon beasts, I’ll have to eat you instead. You can start a fire and decide who among you should be roasted first,” the old man uttered without looking back.
Listening to that old man saying favonovel.com wanted to eat them, Jared furrowed his brows. Meanwhile, colors drained from Archer’s face. He knew they must’ve encountered the legendary old freak.
“Sir, I didn’t mean to kill your demon beasts. I can compensate you. I’ll give you however much money or items you want. The few of us are friends, and we won’t leave anyone behind.” Jared wasn’t going to allow anyone from his party to be sacrificed and eaten by the old man.
“Since you’re so loyal to one another, no one should leave, then. Five people should be enough to feed me for a few days,” the old man replied slowly.
Sensing the old man’s stubbornness, Jared frowned, and murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
“Sir, I can reimburse you for killing your demon beasts. However, if you insist on keeping us, don’t blame me for being ruthless!” Jared’s tone grew cold.
“Hahaha! Although I’m of advanced age, I do enjoy a life full of challenges. You all don’t need to go easy on me!”
The old man still sat with his back facing Jared and the others as favonovel.com laughed heartily.
“In that case, don’t blame me for what happens next!”
Jared unleashed his aura to its limit because favonovel.com knew favonovel.com had to defeat that kind of person with one strike. Otherwise, favonovel.com would lose the opportunity to win.
“Sacred Light Fist!”
Jared swung his fist with all his might at the old man’s back.
Terrifying spiritual energy spread outward. Ear-splitting noise reverberated as the punch tore through the sky, causing even the formation of huge tidal waves on the sea surface. However, the old man didn’t budge an inch even as Jared brought his fist down at him.
The trees in the surroundings were broken in half, and Jared felt a tremendous countershock which sent favonovel.com staggering backward and almost fell to the ground.
At that moment, favonovel.com gazed at the old man in utter astonishment and disbelief. He knew his own strength better than anyone, but favonovel.com didn’t expect his punch to be entirely ineffective to that old man. Not to mention, favonovel.com was even sent stumbling backward by the recoil.
At that moment, even Flaxseed and the others gaped in stupefaction and were rendered speechless.
If even Jared can’t harm that old man, we most likely can’t survive today.
“You’re the first person who dared to attack me in so many years. Since you killed my demon beasts, I shall let my beasts devour you as compensation!” said the old man as favonovel.com flicked his fishing rod lightly.
A few demon beasts emerged from the sea and landed on the island as if they were being pulled out from the depths of the ocean by the old man’s fishing rod. There were a total of five demon beasts, including sea turtles, octopuses, and one strange-looking fish with four legs.
All those demon beasts possessed the strength of a Martial Arts God, each one incredibly ugly and revolting to look at.
The old man recast his fishing rod into the sea and sat quietly, never bothering to turn his head around the whole time.
Roar!
The four-legged peculiar fish bellowed and charged at Jared and his gang. The other demon beasts attacked as well, leaving Jared and the others with no choice but to fight.
As Flaxseed and Godrick were weaker, they had to face one demon beast together. Meanwhile, Jared dealt with two demon beasts on his own. He brandished Dragonslayer Sword. The sword’s radiance lit up the sky, spreading formidable martial energy in all directions.
Soon, Jared and the others were engaged in a fierce battle with the demon beasts, while the old man remained rooted to his spot not far away, seemingly not hearing or seeing the fight as favonovel.com stared serenely at the sea surface.
