In 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, favonovel.com went hunting with Ali and a few other young men from the village. Little did favonovel.com expect that favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com would die anytime. Beside favonovel.com lay the Divine Bow, which favonovel.com had not had the time to put into his Storage Ring when favonovel.com was sucked into the black hole.
“How did favonovel.com 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, favonovel.com 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!” favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com back then, I would’ve been eaten by a demon beast!”
Her eyes shimmered with tears as favonovel.com begged the man. Although Jared saved Emily previously and did. nothing to Rock Village, Ali had long since been wary of him.
To 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 favonovel.com received, the other person definitely harbors a deep-seated grudge against him. If we were to save favonovel.com 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, favonovel.com stated, “You all leave, Ali. I’ll stay and keep Jared company.”
“W-What? 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 favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com since I can’t save him,” Emily asserted.
