After the divine turtle swam away, Jared, leading Cloud and the others, approached. Fayzon, Zordey, and their party. Even though he was facing over a hundred enemies, Jared remained unfazed, showing no signs of panic.
On the contrary, Cloud, Dalton, and the others stood on high alert, gripping their weapons. Watching Jared and his group walking over, Fayzon curled the corner of his lips into a sneer. Zordey, standing beside him, was ogling Quinley. She will be mine once Jared is eliminated!
Zordey hadn’t given up on possessing Quinley. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so determined to do away with Jared.
As Jared and his group reached Fayzon, the latter glanced at the crowd before resting his gaze on Montane Daemon and Renault.
“Mr. Daemon, I, representing the Demon Seal Alliance, have been ordered to hunt down Demonic Cultivators. I’d advise you not to interfere and leave at once! Also, Old Mr. Seizon, Stellaris Sect has always focused on making a profit by doing business, so I hope you won’t muddy these waters,” Fayzon said to the duo.
“Mr. Leaveden, are there any Demonic Cultivators among us?” Renault asked.
“Of course. These two are Demonic Cultivators. We witnessed it on the island. Now that Jared has been confirmed to be colluding with Demonic Cultivators, I would advise you to distance yourself from him!” Fayzon replied while pointing at Dalton and Rosetta.
“That’s right! We all saw it. They are indeed Demonic Cultivators,” Zordey chimed in. A few other cultivators also recognized Dalton and Rosetta as Demonic Cultivators.
“So what if they are Demonic Cultivators? Does that mean they deserve to die? Even though they are Demonic Cultivators, they have never harmed anyone. In contrast, you, Demon Seal Alliance, have been raising a horde of Demonic Cultivators and planning to use them to rule the entire Ethereal Realm under the pretense of suppressing Demonic Cultivators. In truth, the Demon Seal Alliance is far more terrifying than these Demonic Cultivators!” Jared retorted, staring icily at Fayzon.
Fayzon’s expression instantly changed drastically as he looked at Jared, utter astonishment filling his eyes..
After all, that was a secret within the Demon Seal Alliance known only to the organization’s higher-ups. The underlings were all kept in the dark regarding that matter.
Fayzon was taken aback to learn that Jared was informed of the Demon Seal Alliance raising Demonic Cultivators instead of exterminating all of them.
Nevertheless, the surprise was fleeting. The next second, Fayzon burst into laughter. “What are you talking about? What you said doesn’t even make sense. It’s laughable for you to accuse the Demon Seal Alliance of raising Demonic Cultivators. Everyone knows the Demon Seal Alliance is dedicated to eradicating Demonic Cultivators and our great detestation toward them, so how could we possibly raise Demonic Cultivators? On the other hand, you’ve been protecting the two Demonic Cultivators. What exactly are your intentions?”
He wasn’t afraid of Jared exposing the Demon Seal Alliance’s skeleton in the cupboard because no one would believe the latter’s claim.
After all, the Demon Seal Alliance had expanded and grown more influential over the years precisely because of their harsh and merciless methods of dealing with Demonic Cultivators, and that was also why many people volunteered to join the alliance.
No one would believe the ridiculous allegation. that the Demon Seal Alliance was in cahoots. with Demonic Cultivators, much less raising them.
“I have no ulterior motives, but as long as I’m here, no one can lay a finger on them,” Jared responded calmly, not taking the over a hundred cultivators before him seriously.
The smile on Fayzon’s face widened after he heard Jared’s words because the latter had just openly declared his stance of opposing all the other cultivators.
Publicly defending Demonic Cultivators was a grave taboo in Ethereal Realm.
“Fellow cultivators, you’ve also heard him. Jared is overtly siding with Demonic Cultivators, clearly positioning himself against all of us. Today, the Demon Seal Alliance will uphold our duty to eliminate all Demonic Cultivators. Anyone who stands in our way will also be killed. I urge all of you to join forces with us, Demon Seal Alliance, in exterminating Demonic Cultivators!” Fayzon earnestly persuaded those cultivators who were hoodwinked there.
Over a hundred cultivators fervently cried out, “Eliminate Demonic Cultivators! Eliminate Demonic Cultivators!”
Their booming voice alone was sufficiently intimidating.
