No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

“Let’s go. We’ve stayed here for a long time already.” The others were speechless when they heard what Jackie said. The corners of Jed’s mouth twitched, not knowing what to say to that. He felt that this person was not strong, but he was secretly thinking about himself as the leader of the team. He started training or leaving after mentioning it and did not take their opinions seriously.

Jed coughed softly. “My Senior Brother Albion hasn’t healed from his injuries. What should we do if we go out abruptly and face any danger?”

Chapter 2083 Jackie turned around and walked toward Albion without any hesitation. He stretched out his hand and placed it on Albion’s wrist.

Jackie did not know much, but he was capable of judging Albion’s injuries through his meridians. Albion had recovered 40 to 50 percent already, but he would need a couple of months if he wanted to be completely healed.

Jackie did not want to waste those couple of months In this place. Jackie glanced past Jed and stared straight at Dwight, who stood behind Jed. “Your Senior Brother Albion’s wounds have stabilized, and he’s forty to fifty percent recovered. However, apart from time, he needs a peaceful environment if he wishes to be seventy to eighty percent recovered. Even if we continue to stay here for another month or two, nothing will change, and your senior brother will only have a fifty to sixty percent recovery. What we should do is think of a way to leave this place and cure your senior brother after that.”

Dwight exhaled softly and felt that what Jackie said made sense when he thought about it. Senior Brother Albion needed the help of other pills and herbs to have a recovery rate of 70 to 80 percent. However, they had already used all the pills and herbs they have on Albion, and none remained. If they stayed here, it would hinder Senior Brother Albion’s recovery.

Dwight stretched his legs and stood up from the ground when he had made up his mind. He patted the dust off of his body and picked the broken leaves off his arm before speaking without looking up.” You’re right. It’s a waste of time to continue lurking here. Let’s think of a way to leave this place.”

Jed’s expression faltered upon hearing this, but all he could do was hide his anger, unable to directly refute Dwight.

They did not delay their actions after they decided what to do next. For everybody’s safety, Dwight led the pack to check the path for everybody else while the others followed behind him. There was a stream flowing beside the gravel path. They just walked outward following the direction of the stream flowing. In fact, none of them were able to tell where they were or which way they should go; they could only march on.

Albion, on the other hand, could walk on his own without the support of others. Although it was slightly tiring, it did not affect his wounds. Jed walked beside Albion. As Dwight had gone checking the path for everybody, Jed could only mention his worries to Albion. “Do you think that we’ll bump into the Corpse Pavilion’s disciples? What do we do if we do? What shall we do if the trap array hasn’t been resolved?”

He did not forget that those lunatics from the Corpse Pavilion had secluded Mount Beasts and set up a trap array. Even if they did not run into any of the Corpse Pavilion’s disciples, they would also face the issue of the trap array. He had no idea if Jackie would be able to find the array eye this time.

Albion sighed helplessly and glanced at Jackie, who was walking right in front of him. “I have no idea; guess we’ll only have to wait and see. To be honest, I feel that we’re taking a risk by going out at this moment. Nonetheless, it’s a waste of time if we stay here for a long time. We can only try our luck and circle back if it doesn’t work.”

The grass under their feet was soft. The situation seemed to be extremely peaceful as the birds’ chirping and sounds made by other small animals traveled to their ears. However, none of them let their guard down, knowing very well that none of them knew what they would face the next second.

Right at this moment, Dwight, who had been checking the path for everybody ahead of them, suddenly turned around and came running back. His darkened expression obviously meant that he had encountered something bad.

Jackie immediately stretched out his hand to shield Nash behind him as his eyes stared at the space behind Dwight.

Sure enough, a familiar voice entered their ears within two breaths. “It’s you! How are you guys still alive? Was the trap array at the bottom undeserving of its reputation?!”

Chapter 2084 The man with a pointy chin showed up in front of Jackie with three Corpse Pavillion’s disciples behind him. Luckily, the masked man was nowhere to be seen. The man with a pointy chin had been the one following the masked man previously, providing the masked man with ideas as he bad mouthed about them.

Who would have expected to bump into them not long after they left the valley?

Senior Brother Robin Mullins, are these the people our eldest senior brother is hunting.

Jackie raised his brows. So, this man’s name was Robin Mullins. Under normal circumstances, nobody would address their clan brothers with their full name unless this person’s surname was everywhere, Their name might be easily confused with other clan brothers unless they addressed him with his full name.

Robin had a sharp chin and looked like a treacherous court official, good at flattering others. Robin narrowed his eyes as he sized up Jackie and the others, seemingly trying to spot some great secrets from them.

Robin laughed coldly, shrugging as he said, “We can’t let them escape. I’ve never heard about anybody coming out of the legend under the Cliff of Sorrow, but these people had actually made it out. They probably know something very important.”

Robin suddenly turned around and looked to those three people behind him. Those three looked alike and were obviously brothers. “Derek Roffe, you’ll go to the left, and Dudley Roffe to the right. Damian Roffe, you’ll remain in the center with me.”

With that said, the four of them manage to surround Jackie and the rest in the middle. It looked like they planned to make Jackie and the others stay, not allowing any of them to escape.

Jed and the others turned pale. He immediately turned toward Dwight and barked, “What’s going on with you? How could you lead them here? How did they discover you?”

Dwight’s complexion darkened when he heard what Jed said. He turned around and glared at Jed angrily.” What’s this about? You speak as if I purposely led them here. I have no idea how they discovered me. That Derek guy discovered me when I was checking the path ahead of us.”

Dwight was slightly flushed, whether it be out of shame or frustration. He did not even lower his voice, causing the four men standing opposite them to hear his words, too.

Derek sneered and stared at Dwight with a mocking expression on his face. “Stop embarrassing yourself in front of us. You’re a Jackie of all trades but a master of none. You must’ve practiced a martial skill to hide your figure. Unfortunately, the martial skill you practice means nothing to me. In the entire Corpse Pavilion, nobody from the formal and informal disciples have better hiding and exploration abilities than me. You’ll only make a joke out of yourself by showing yourself up to me.”

Dwight flushed a crimson color, but he was unable to come up with any refutable words. From the looks of It, Derek was definitely stronger than him, or he would not have easily discovered how he hid himself.

However, Derek suggested to Robin, “Senior Brother Robin Mullins, should we send a signal to our eldest senior brother—”

Unexpectedly, Robin’s once prideful expression turned cold upon hearing this, like a wave of cold wind in December. He stared daggers, and Derek was startled by Robin’s reaction.

Robin sneered. “Hey, why aren’t you this foolish any other day? Did you not hear what I said just now? The five of them have great secrets! What can we get If we report to the eldest senior brother about this? We wouldn’t even get the scraps, let alone the main dish.”

Chapter 2085 Derek had an immediate realization when he heard this. He stretched out his hand and slapped himself instantly. Of course, his slap was nowhere harsh; it was out of realization, too. A smile crawled to his face. “Agh, what a fool I am! You’re right. If news about this gets out, it won’t benefit us at all. These people aren’t strong, and we alone will be sufficient in handling them.”

Dudley and Damian jumped on the bandwagon and said flattering words, much to Robin’s pleasure. His cold expression was nowhere to be seen after that. You guys are thinking of notifying the eldest senior brother when these are just a couple of losers. The eldest senior brother will say we’re losers if we trouble him with this. Three of them are in the final stage of the innate level while the other one is in the initial stage, and another useless one who’s in the acquired level. On top of that, one of them in the final stage of the innate level was badly wounded previously. Even if there were only three of us, they’re no match for us!”

All four of them were in the final stage of innate level, especially Robin, who was about to break through into the spring solidifying realm. These people laid out their plan without even making it discreet, thinking as though Jackie and his company were like slabs of meat on a chopping board.

Although Jed was extremely furious when he heard what they said, he could not refute it, anyway. These men had a point: they were no match for Robin and his team. They were considered weak soldiers, too.

Jed inhaled deeply and could not help but take a couple of steps back. He stretched out his hand to grab Albion’s arm. Senior Brother Albion, we need to retreat. I don’t know if we can get rid of them, though.”

A bitter smile appeared on Albion’s face. “How’s that possible? On top of that do you think that they’d allow us to escape? We’ve escaped the tiger’s den just to enter the wolves’ territory. It looks like we’re fated to die.” Albion would never say such discouraging words under normal circumstances. However, the continuous problems had caused him to slowly lose his will to fight. Together with the fact that he had not recovered from his wounds, he became disheartened.

Despite keeping their voices hushed, Robin saw through their thoughts and laughed maniacally at them. “Are you guys thinking of escaping? Do you think you guys can do that? The combat power of your team combined is only two people in the final stage of the innate level. You guys are fated to die if you plan to fight the four of us!” Robin grew increasingly excited as he spoke, and his smile grew wider.

Jed’s expression faltered. “We’re done for, this time. I’ll never leave Senior Brother Albion and escape on my own!”

Dwight rolled his eyes at Jed. “What do you mean when you say this? You sound like I’d leave our senior brother here and escape alone! I won’t escape on my own; we’ll die together if that’s our fate. It’s just quite unfortunate… After all, we’ve just escaped from the Ten Absolutes Trap Array, and we even thought that peace was at hand. Who would have expected…”

Jed tightened his fists and raised his head to look at Jackie. “We shouldn’t have left the place as this place Is filled with danger. We should’ve waited inside for a couple of months until the masters of our sect broke the trap array and got rid of these asses. We would’ve been safe by then!” He was obviously complaining about Jackie’s idea, and Jackie could tell what he really meant. He was not a fool.
