Female Novel
Chapter 2240 Escape
A blinding golden flash collided with Elgado's Scorching Heaven Palm, resulting in an ear-splitting sound that tore through thevicinity.
With the explosion of aura, the earth began to shake, and the ground beneath their feet was all ready to come apart at theseams.
Worse still, bits of shattered rocks from the stone walls whisked through every nook and cranny of the place.The collapse of the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace seemed imminent.
In an instant, the golden beam sent forth by Jared pierced through Elgado's Scorching Heaven Palm before dealing a blow toElgado himself.
The poor man was sent flying backward in disbelief.
Just when Elgado was lost in his own thoughts, Jared closed the distance between them in a blink of an eye and came face-to-face with him. Jared's speed was way out of Elgado's league.
“W-What?”
Before Elgado could react, Jared already landed a forceful kick on him.
Boom!
Elgado crashed hard into the stone wall, causing rubble to crumble. At that rate, Narcissus Palace was bound to turn to dust.It was then that Elgado coughed up a mouthful of blood, his aura dissipating rapidly.
As he noticed that Jared was still ambling toward him, his face clouded over.
“Spare me, Jared. | can offer you a wealth of resources in exchange...” he begged for mercy.
“Hmph! You're only a measly guardian of Scorching Heaven Sect. Without acknowledgment from your leader, your word carriesno weight! Come to think of it, the power of a Nineth Top Level Martial Arts God inside you might be one of the best resources |could ever find!”
Awretched smirk was etched on Jared's countenance as he spoke. | bet | could become even more powerful once | absorbed allof Elgado's energy!
Judging by Jared's attitude, Elgado knew that there was no way he would be let off the hook. Narrowing his eyes, he voiced,“You think you got me, Jared? Think again. | wouldn't have had the guts to assume the role of Scorching Heaven Sect's guardianif | had no plan B to fall back on, would 1?”
As soon as he said his piece, he fished out a relic and crushed it in his hands.
The next moment, the space around Elgado began to warp while his figure faded away.
“Teleportation magecraft, huh? Trying to escape?”
Jared dashed forward and reached out to grab the fleeing Elgado.
Sadly, he was one step too late. Elgado had disappeared in plain sight before Jared could catch hold of him.
Jared was frustrated to have let Elgado make the getaway right under his nose. Never in his wildest dreams would he haveguessed that a guardian of Scorching Heaven Sect could have teleportation magecraft up his sleeve.
Moments after Elgado made his escape, the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace quaked violently. That time around, even boulderscame tumbling down.
“Let's get out of here, Ms. Loulland!”
Wasting no time, Jared led Skyler back the way they came from.
Once they were out of the sinkhole, they were greeted by a sight filled with countless dead bodies of martial artists everywhere.

Looking at those corpses scattered all over the ground, Skyler could not help but raise a question. “Mr. Chance, could it be thatthere're more hidden sects in Kazillion Mountains?”

“| think so. We need to stay on guard,” warned Jared.

“Mr. Chance, help!” Verner, Jose, and the gang cried for help the second Jared came into sight.Furrowing his brows slightly, Jared asked Skyler, “Who are these people?”
