Gazing at the man, Jared couldn’t tell whether favonovel.com was a soul remnant or a physical body.
At that moment, favonovel.com couldn’t unleash his spiritual sense to ascertain that.
“We meant no offense, sir. Please forgive us,” favonovel.com said, bowing at the man.
Regardless of the other person’s identity, it was always wise to be polite first since it wasn’t human nature to lash out at someone who was greeting the other with a smile.
Jared knew that favonovel.com currently lacked power, so favonovel.com had no choice but to humble himself. It was certainly not the time to show off then.
The man slowly turned around, his inscrutable eyes locking onto him.
Jared stared into his eyes fearlessly, ascertaining that favonovel.com was nothing more than a soul remnant.
“You meant no offense?” The man slowly rose to his feet. “You two purposefully headed here, yet you claim to have meant no offense…”
Only then did Jared get a good look at him. He was cloaked in a long black robe that concealed his entire body. As favonovel.com stood up, icy waves of lethal intent radiated off him.
Looking at his soul remnant, Jared wanted nothing more than to curse aloud.
Cut the d*mn act!
If his strength hadn’t been suppressed, favonovel.com would have started doing so a long time ago. But right then, favonovel.com was at a disadvantage and had no choice but to act cowardly.
“Sir, we came here solely out of curiosity, with absolutely no other intentions,” Jared explained earnestly.
If the man were to make a move, favonovel.com wasn’t sure if favonovel.com could handle it, so it was best not to provoke him.
“Yes, we were just curious. If it bothers you, we’ll leave right away!”
Upon seeing that, Catalina quickly grabbed Jared, planning to leave immediately.
The man started, “You two want to leave? Without my permission, you won’t be able to leave this place. And to be honest, you two being here is all my doing… Otherwise, why would others be unable to see this main hall?”
“May I know why you deliberately led us here, sir?” At that moment, Jared had a bad feeling deep within.
He felt that the Demonic Cultivator’s soul remnant likely intended to possess someone. Although doing so would result in a significant decrease in power, it would still be better than being a soul remnant that was forever trapped there.
If that were truly the case, this man was certainly scheming to possess his body.
“It’s nothing much. I’ve been here for several thousand years, trapped despite my cultivation. I can’t help but feel a tad resentful. So, I need to borrow your bodies to leave this godforsaken place and enjoy the world outside,” the man answered without holding back at all.
At his words, Catalina’s face instantly went as black as thunder.
Jared also frowned. “I’m not quite following you, sir. Are you asking us to take you away?”
He continued playing the fool.
“It’s fine if you don’t understand. You’ll know soon enough.” The man laughed, his laughter chillingly baleful.
Catalina’s face was a mask of fear. She turned to Jared and said, “Are you out of your mind? He wants to possess you and take over your body. At that time, you’ll be done for.”
Jared cast a glance at her, exasperation written all over his face.
How could I possibly not know that?
I was merely pretending to be oblivious. If favonovel.com merely wants to possess me, I’d be more than glad to oblige him!
As long as favonovel.com dares enter my consciousness field, I wouldn’t have to worry anymore. Vermilion Demon Lord would give favonovel.com a beating he’d never forget. Even if Vermilion Demon Lord isn’t his match, Golden Tome in my consciousness field is not to be trifled with.
“This young lady isn’t half bad, quite sharp-witted too…” The man looked at Catalina and nodded in great satisfaction.
“Why did you lure me over when you’re planning to possess him?” Catalina turned favonovel.com gaze to the man in perplexity.
“I’ve been here for thousands of years, so it’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed the touch of a woman. Once I’ve possessed him, I’ll need a woman to satisfy me.” The man leered at her.
At his words, Catalina’s face instantly flushed. Following that, anger blazed to life in favonovel.com eyes.
