Chapter 2545 You Must Die
Francois and Brutus leaped up the next instant and pursued Jared. Now that the bloodthirsty beast wassavoring its food, it couldn't spare any time to deal with others.
Seeing that, Chev also led his group and gave chase. He was considered Francois' partner now, and ifthey didn't work together, they would likely become meals for the bloodthirsty beast.
Jared, who was fleeing with all his might, sensed several presences closing in from behind. When helooked back, he was surprised to find Francois' group pursuing him.
Jared knew those people must be afraid he would harvest the Grus Divina, so they took the risk tochase after him despite the danger.
Jared was confident he could shake off Francois and the others, but the same couldn't be said for Ali,Percy, and the rest. At the speed they were traveling, Francois and his party would eventually catch upwith them.
“Ali, hurry up and run. Don't look back, and don't stop,” Jared reminded Ali, then he slowed down andcame to a halt.
He decided to stay behind to stall Francois and the others, buying time for Ali, Emily, and the rest toescape.
Francois and Brutus were puzzled to see Jared stop running and even voluntarily stand still.
“Why aren't you running?” Brutus asked curiously while gazing at Jared.
Jared curled his lips and said contemptuously, “I had to flee for my life when facing the bloodthirstybeast, but why should I run from you? With your capabilities, all of you are as insignificant as ants to
me.”
If Jared could regain his peak strength, Francois and Brutus would indeed be as insignificant as ants tohim. He wouldn't even bother sparing them a glance.
Even if Jared hadn't recovered, he could still regard Brutus and the others with disdain if the swordspirit had recovered.
Francois and Brutus were slightly dazed at Jared's remark. They didn't expect Jared to utter suchaudacious words.
After all, Jared was a mere villager to them.
“Hahaha! Francois, where did you find this oddity? Even a lowly peasant like him pours scorn onEmerald Cauldron Sect. It seems Emerald Cauldron Sect has truly declined!” Chev arrived in time tohear Jared's words and burst out laughing.
Francois and Brutus were beside themselves with rage, listening to Chev's mockery. Emerald CauldronSect and the Nesser family had grudges in the first place, and now that Jared was putting them toshame in front of Chev, the duo could hardly contain their anger.
“Brat, I'll let you suffer a fate worse than death today!” Brutus lurched forward, thrusting his arm atJared's head.
Jared was relieved to see Brutus attacking him. Although Brutus was relatively strong, it wouldn't beeasy for him to defeat Jared.
As long as Francois didn't interfere, Jared was certain he could eliminate Brutus.novelbin
The moment Brutus made his move, Jared swung Percy's sword. The blade's glint sliced through theair.
“Brutus, retreat at once!”
The instant Jared launched his attack, Francois immediately realized the terrifying power of Jared'sstrike. He knew Brutus stood no chance against the hit and was bound to suffer a loss, especially sincethe latter was unarmed.
Despite Francois' warning, Brutus was a little slow to react. By the time he fell back and retracted hisarm, the blade glint had already scraped his arm.
Brutus' arm was cut, and blood soaked through his clothes and gushed out. Seeing that he had beeninjured by Jared, Brutus was caught in utter disbelief.
Francois took out some powder and sprinkled it onto Brutus' wound. In no time, the bleeding stopped.
“Brat, you must die today!” Brutus gritted his teeth, his chest heaving with rage.
