Chapter 2245 Surrounded
Within a mountain range in the hidden realm, Jared, together with Flaxseed and Godrick, were dashingthrough the forest. Behind them were more than ten terrifying auras in pursuit.
“Jared, what have you done? Why are there so many people trying to kill us ever since we leftLuminous Sect? Tell me, did you steal someone's girl or did anyone of them cheat with you? Is thatwhy they're pursuing us so doggedly?” Flaxseed asked while panting heavily.
Jared simply rolled his eyes at him. “All you care about is women. Do you think I'm like you, sleepingwith them wherever I go? The only reason I offended them was because I was trying to save you!”
Jared related what happened at the Narcissus Palace ruins, filling Flaxseed with gratitude.
Nonetheless, being pursued in every direction didn't make him feel better at all.
Moreover, every single one of their pursuers was so powerful that they could send shockwaves throughthe martial arts world.
“Since when does the martial arts world have so many hidden prestigious families that wield suchterrifying power?”
Flaxseed just couldn't stop complaining.
As for Godrick, the weakest of them all, he was already covered in sweat. Furthermore, he had neverseen so many powerful warriors gathered in the same place. Every single one of their pursuers was aMartial Arts God, a deity-like existence from his perspective.
Although he had become a Martial Arts Saint after swallowing a Spirit Connecting Fruit, he still had tobridge a huge gap before achieving Martial Arts God.
Soon, the running Jared came to an abrupt stop. Brows furrowed, he unleashed his spiritual sense farahead of them.
Thereafter, his expression drastically changed. “We'll have to take a different route. There are menblocking our path in front.”
With that, the three of them changed directions and continued fleeing.
Just like that, Jared and his companions were surrounded. Despite running the entire day, they justcouldn't escape from the area.
“Jared, why don't you leave me and flee with Mr. Flaxseed?”
Godrick, who could no longer take another step, sat down by a tree to catch his breath.
He was under no illusion that he was being a burden. That was the reason he was prepared to sacrificehimself.
“What are you talking about? I'm not going to abandon you,” Jared asserted.
“Why don't we take a break first? I'll set up arcane arrays around so that we can defend ourselves forthe time being.”
The moment he finished, Flaxseed brought out a few charms and began setting them up a few hundredmeters away.novelbin
In the meantime, Jared stared at the sky with a pensive look, trying to figure out their escape routes.
He hadn't expected their pursuers to be so fast and there were so many of them.
Without Flaxseed and Godrick, he could've easily escaped by himself. Unfortunately, both of them wereholding him back.
While Jared was racking his brains, an anxious expression descended on Matthew's face back atLuminous Sect.
“Master, Flying Star Sect and Stormwind Sect have sent a huge number of men to hunt Mr. Chanceand his companions down. Besides them, there's another group from Scorching Heaven Sect. Nowthat three factions are breathing down Mr. Chance's neck, it would be difficult for them to escape thehidden realm!” Skyler informed Matthew.
“Skyler, Archer, find Mr. Chance at once and help him escape by sea. We cannot afford to let them getcaught!” Matthew ordered.
“By sea?” Archer's expression changed slightly at the words. “Doesn't that mean they will have to sailout to sea? With many demon beasts roaming the ocean and the old monster guarding the nearbyisland, how are we going to get past them?”
“This is the only way out. We won't know until we try. As for the other escape routes, the enemy musthave sealed all of them off,” Matthew remarked with a frown.
“W-What if we run into that old monster? I heard that he’s a cannibal.”
It was clear from Archer's tone that he was terrified of the monster he mentioned.
“That's just a rumor. You shouldn't believe it. Now, hurry up and go,” Matthew ordered as he gaveArcher a look.
Not daring to utter a word of protest, Archer had no choice but to set off together with Skyler.
