Jared’s arrogance made Leighton’s face turn red. However, even in his anger, he wasn’t foolish.
He knew Jared was up to something.
Upon seeing Leighton hesitate, Jared taunted him even further, “What’s the matter? Are you scared? I
thought the Mueller family was supposed to be impressive. I see you’re all just cowards. I’ll have you
know that it was I who killed Keiran, the esteemed eldest heir of the Mueller family. Back then, he even
knelt before me, begging for his life.”
Jared was provoking all the members of the Mueller family.
Listening to Jared’s mockery of the Mueller family, Bianca and the others gradually relaxed.
Leighton clenched his fists tightly, yet he didn’t charge forward. Two members of the Mueller family,
however, simply couldn’t hold back anymore.
“How dare you humiliate the Mueller family! You’re courting death…”
Two experts from the Mueller family launched themselves at Jared. Just as the two of them leaped over
the crevice, a sudden surge of intense aura burst forth from the crevice.
The two experts from the Mueller family were instantaneously obliterated, their disintegrated forms
tumbling into the crevice.
However, this time, a series of sounds
unexpectedly echoed from within the crevice.
Jared was taken aback. He hadn’t anticipated that there would be creatures still surviving within the
crevice.The roar sounded as if it was from a demon beast or a scream echoing from the depths of hell.
Leighton was dumbfounded. His eyes were filled with fury when he witnessed the death of two
members of the Mueller family.
We’ve been fooled!
He must be aware that this crevice can’t be easily crossed, which is why he deliberately provoked us.
“Everyone, don’t be fooled. No one is allowed to cross this crevice. There’s something strange within
it,” Leighton cautioned the Muellers.
Seeing that Leighton was no longer falling for his tricks, Jared decided to simply ignore him. He
directed Bianca and the others to quickly gather the polar stones.
“Mr. Vermilion, why do there seem to be creatures living within the crevice created by your sword
strike?” Jared asked Vermilion Demon Lord.
“How would I know? It’s been thousands of years. It’s not that strange if there are creatures living
inside.”
Upon reflection, Jared agreed and decided not to question further. However, he was certain that any
creature capable of surviving within the crevice must possess extraordinary strength.
After collecting thousands of polar stones, Jared, along with Bianca and the others, continued to move
forward along the crevice.
Leighton could do nothing but watch and clench his teeth in anger.
“Uncle Leighton, how did they manage to pass through this crevice? They couldn’t have possibly gone
around it, could they?” a member of the Mueller family asked.“Right, they might have gone around it. Let’s find a way to circle around.”
Leighton left with the Muellers.
At this very moment, a team of a hundred people made their way over.
noveldramaThis was the largest team to have ever ventured into the polar region.
However, this group of a hundred people was all dressed in five different colors.
Five individuals were leading the way. Four of them were Eighth Level Tribulator cultivators, while one
among them clearly exuded a stronger aura, having just advanced to Ninth Level Tribulator.
These individuals were from the Five Great Sects.
“Mr. Darkmore, we have journeyed a great distance to be here. We hope that your words hold truth,”
Lauden of Celestial Delacroix Sect said.
Lauden had just advanced to Ninth Level Tribulator, further solidifying his position as the head of the
Five Great Sects.
After the incident involving Jared, a rift had already formed among the Five Great Sects.
Lauden was also aware that Heinrik and others had developed rebellious intentions.
Hence, during that period, he was constantly immersed in intensive training, and he never left the
headquarters of the Five Great Sects.
Not too long ago, Lauden had broken through to Ninth Level Tribulator. He was extremely elated, which
caused him to let his guard down around Heinrik and the others.After all, he was now a level above everyone else. As long as Heinrik and the others weren’t foolish,
they wouldn’t go against him.
