However, Fayzon’s offer was one of a kind. Gaining the favor of the Demon Seal Alliance could potentially change someone’s life. Many believed that Jared would accept the offer.
If they were in his shoes, they would not hesitate either. After all, no one would refuse the ever-powerful Demon Seal Alliance-no one would dare to.
“But I don’t need any favors from the Demon Seal Alliance. What I need is this Stillwind Orb,” Jared replied without hesitation.
He knew what the Demon Seal Alliance was like, and he had had conflicts with them. How could he possibly give the Stillwind Orb to someone from the alliance?
Everyone was taken aback when Jared rejected the offer. Even Fayzon did not anticipate Jared to turn him down so decisively. The atmosphere suddenly grew. tense, and Fayzon’s expression darkened.
“Is the favor from the Demon Seal Alliance not on par with the value of the Stillwind Orb?” Fayzon’s eyes narrowed. Jared replied calmly, “To me, the favor from the Demon Seal Alliance is worthless.”
The crowd erupted in disbelief. What?
Nobody expected Jared to respond in such a manner. Even if he didn’t want to sell the Stillwind Orb, he could have approached the situation differently by negotiating with Fayzon more tactfully!
However, Jared’s words clearly displayed his disdain for the Demon Seal Alliance. It was as though he was challenging the highest authority. He’s just digging his own grave, isn’t it?
“Worthless?” Fayzon’s face turned dark, and his aura surged instantly. “No one has ever spoken to me in such a manner. You’re the first. But let me make this clear-there is nothing that the Demon Seal Alliance desires that it can’t obtain. Do you hear me?”
It was evident that Fayzon was threatening Jared, implying that if he were to turn him down again, Fayzon would take immediate action against him.
“Is that so?” Jared’s demeanor also turned icy. “Likewise, I would never allow something I don’t wish to sell to be taken from me.”
Seeing Jared remain so unyielding, Fayzon was quite infuriated. Others believed that Jared had lost his mind..
“That guy is just a Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator. How dare he challenge a Tribulator cultivator. Has he gone mad?” someone uttered.
Another person chimed in, “I think he’s just inexperienced. If only he knew that Fayzon could finish him off in the blink of an eye.”
“That guy is quite something. This is the first time I’ve seen someone at the Body Fusion Realm challenging a Tribulator cultivator.”
Many cultivators were astonished. They had not expected Jared, a mere Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator, to dare to confront Fayzon. On this spirit ship, there were many cultivators more powerful than Jared, but none of them dared to talk back to Fayzon like that.
Yet Jared, a lower-level cultivator, was provoking Fayzon. That was equivalent to digging his grave.
“Kid, you’re the first person who’s ever dared to talk to me like this!” With that, Fayzon reached out to grab Jared. As soon as Jared noticed the situation, he swiftly unleashed a burst of aura, poised to act at a moment’s notice!
“Mr. Leaveden, you’re a Tribulator cultivator and also the main person in control of the spirit. ship. Don’t you know engaging in a fight on the ship will spell disaster for all of us?” Montane Daemon finally spoke..
Fayzon knitted his brows. “Mr. Daemon, are you siding with him?”
“I’m not siding with him. I’m just looking out for myself. If you start fighting, it’s inevitable that the spirit ship will suffer, and then we will all pay the price,” responded Montane Daemon. “I’m just trying to ensure I stay out of harm’s way. If anyone puts me in danger, I won’t think twice about handling the culprit!”
Many cultivators shared his worry. While they might not have been personally invested in Jared’s fate, the fact that they were all on the same ship left them concerned about the potential destruction of the spirit ship during any physical altercation. If that unfortunate scenario were to unfold, there was little doubt they would meet their demise in the inky depths of the Night Sea.
“You must refrain from violence on this spirit ship. Otherwise, we’re all doomed!”
“That’s right. We’re not supposed to fight on this spirit ship. Isn’t that the cardinal rule? How can we just throw that out the window?” echoed another cultivator.
“We’ve got to stick together as a united front. Anyone who starts a ruckus on this ship is an enemy to every single one of us.”
Numerous cultivators joined the chorus of protest to safeguard their well-being..
