“I didn’t expect a mere wandering cultivator to have such determination. I’m curious to see how long you can hold on…”
Woodley wore a sneer on his face. He felt excited as he watched the wandering. cultivators being tormented by him. Beau’s eyes slowly lost focus. He was going to die.
At that critical moment, a figure flashed by. Followed by a sudden burst of white light, all the vines were instantly cut off. Beau collapsed onto the ground and gasped for breath.
“Are you okay?”
Jared went forward and helped Beau up. When Beau saw that it was Jared, his heart was filled with excitement because he knew that he wouldn’t have to die now that Jared was here.
“Jared, I didn’t expect you to come. Thank you so much…” Beau exclaimed. Upon seeing Jared, Woodley couldn’t help but frown. “It’s you? Where’s Phaethon? Wasn’t he supposed to kill you?”
“Phaethon is dead. I’m here to kill you,” Jared said calmly. “Impossible! How could Phaethon be dead?
How could you have killed him with your strength?”
Woodley simply couldn’t believe that Jared had killed Phaethon. “You don’t believe him?” Yuven, who had just arrived, spoke, his aura bursting forth from his body.
Woodley’s face contorted as he began to tremble uncontrollably. The aura that Yuven released was enough to make Woodley collapse to the ground instantly.
Yuven’s power could easily kill him. Now, Woodley finally believed that Phaethon was indeed dead. However, he couldn’t understand why Jared had such a formidable expert by his side.
Jared glanced at Yuven. He knew that Yuven was doing this to put pressure on Woodley so that the latter would feel nervous when fighting him.
Yuven was concerned about Jared’s safety, but Jared didn’t need it at all. What he needed was to make Woodley unleash his full power so that it could trigger his own potential.
Jared’s strength had grown through every confrontation with highly skilled enemies. “Yuven, don’t scare him. If I want to kill him, I don’t need anyone’s help,” Jared said to Yuven Hearing that, Yuven withdrew his aura and stepped aside.
At that moment, Woodley had lost the excitement he had when slaughtering those wandering cultivators. His face was filled with despair.
“Jared, do you know what kind of organization the Demon Seal Alliance is? Our leader has instructed us to report back. If you kill me now, the Demon Seal Alliance won’t spare you. Think it through. No one targeted by the Demon Seal Alliance has been able to escape,” Woodley said in an attempt to intimidate Jared.
“Phaeton said the same thing just before he died. If you can dodge one move from me, I’ll spare your life,” Jared said with immense confidence. In comparison to Phaeton, Woodley was slightly weaker, so Jared was certain that he could handle him.
Woodley grew furious. “A true warrior would rather die than suffer humiliation. Are you looking down on me? Let’s see how you can kill me in one move…”
With a roar, Woodley summoned hundreds of vine-like tendrils that shot toward Jared as fast as lightning from all directions. The tendrils moved like tentacles, aiming to ensnare Jared.
“Let’s see how you can avoid my Thousand Tendrils…” Woodley snarled, his eyes filled with cold determination.
Woodley thought that Jared could be easily defeated and that his main concern was Yuven. He had to be vigilant against Yuven’s intervention.
Although Woodley knew that he was the weakest among the Five Slayers, he felt confident in handling a mere Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator like Jared.
