No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 2486

It was the most famous gathering spot for fiends in the whole of Hestia Continent. It was also a battlefield between

humans and fiends. Humans regularly come to Grand Yorn Canyon to slaughter fiends.

Fiends would also hunt for humans there, and death was a regular occurrence.

Jackie helplessly reminded them, “Grand Yorn Mountain isn’t a place for us to go sightseeing. It’s not famous for its

scenery.

“It’s famous for being a gathering spot for many high-level fiends. We can’t even beat a one-eyed frost wolf, so

how could you be so excited…”

Hansel let out a slight cough as he nodded in agreement, “Jackie’s right. Grand Yorn Mountain isn’t somewhere we

can stay idle in. There’s danger everywhere. I was forced to, or I wouldn’t have rushed in here.”

His words successfully stunned Jackie. Jackie hurriedly asked, “What do you mean by that? Is this the inner region of

Grand Yorn Mountain?”

As Jackie asked, he grew so anxious that his heart almost jumped out of his throat. If they really were in the inner

regions of Grand Yorn Mountain, then it would be incredibly difficult for them to get out.

Hansel immediately shook his head and said, “It’s not the inner area. If we were in the inner area, we would not

even be alive anymore. This is somewhere between the border and the outer regions. Most of the fiends here are

at the spring solidifying realm.”

With his explanation, Jackie immediately understood where they were. He also understood how terrifying Grand

Yorn Mountain was. Even the area between the border and the outer region was filled with spring solidifying realm

beasts, so how horrifying would the ones living in the inner areas be?

Even an elder of a fifth-grade clan would probably not dare to venture into the inner regions casually.

Rudy asked, “If it’s so dangerous here, why are you here?”

The question caused Hansel to let out a long sigh. It seemed like it was something he did not want to bring up. Yet,

there was nothing to hide, so he helplessly said, “I was forced here by someone. If I hadn’t been forced in here, I

would never have come.”

Jackie frowned as he asked, “Could I know how strong you are?”

Hansel answered incredibly earnestly, “I’m at the initial stage of the spring solidifying realm.”

That answer successfully stunned Grayson and Rudy. The spring solidifying realm was already the final goal for the

two of them. After all, the two of them were far too weak.Without the help of pills, they would never be able to step

into the spring solidifying realm.

Only by getting to that level would they be able to have enough power for alchemy. Before, they had planned on

reaching the spring solidifying realm as well, but had thought that they would need a very long time.

Yet, such a young person was already at that level. He was obviously a master within his clan which filled the two of

them with admiration and respect.

Rudy excitedly said, “Since you’re already at the spring solidifying realm, does that mean you’ll be able to bring us

out after you’ve recovered?

“Don’t forget, the three of us saved you. If we weren’t here, you would have been swallowed alive by that wolf.”

Hearing that, Hansel nodded earnestly, indicating that he would repay them. Yet, Jackie pursed his lips helplessly.

Rudy really did not think things through before speaking .

Chapter 2487

Even if he wanted to be repaid, he should not have made it sound so obvious. However, even if Jackie wanted to

save the situation, it was already too late. He could not believe Hansel was already in the spring solidifying realm.

Furthermore, he was also the disciple of a fifth-grade clan. That meant he could probably be a chosen disciple in

the Seven Absolutes Pavilion, so Jackie wondered how he had been forced into Grand Yorn a Mountain.

Hansel said earnestly, “I know how to get out. As long as I’ve recovered, I’ll bring you out.

“This area isn’t as dangerous as other places, but it’s not that safe as well. As long as we’re careful, it shouldn’t be

too hard to get out.”

Hansel’s words gave Grayson and Rudy a lot of hope. Their pale faces suddenly regained some color. Their earlier

hopelessness had disappeared as they once again found the confidence to survive,

However, Grayson found something puzzling that made him suspicious. “If you’re already at the initial stage of the

spring solidifying realm, how were you beaten to such a state by the one-eyed frost wolf? Even if you can’t beat it,

you should have been able to run away.”

Hansel seemed to have thought of something. His gusto suddenly disappeared as his eyes reddened with a wry

smile.

“I only met that one-eyed frost wolf after being heavily injured. My injuries were mostly caused by the wolf, but it’s

also because someone else had injure me before I met the wolf

“If you hadn’t saved me, I would already be in the stomach of that wolf. Thank you all so much.”

With that, Hansel saluted them in thanks again. Rudy was even more curious when he heard those words. Hansel

had only fallen to this fate after being injured by someone, so who was the one who had injured him?

No matter how dumb Rudy was, he could guess that Hansel was someone quite high up in the Seven Absolutes

Pavilion. If he had that status, he should be a respected individual. He should not have that many enemies.

Rudy hurriedly asked, “Who was the one who injured you to this degree?”

Hansel answered with a dark look on his face, “It’s my junior. He set up a trap for me. I had seen him as a close

friend, so I didn’t doubt him that much. That’s how I ended up in this state.”

After saying that, he slowly shut his eyes, not willing to continue on the topic. Just those few words managed to

explain everything. The internal affairs of clans were often that intense.

Rudy continued, “How did your junior end up holding a grudge against you? What sort of trap did he set for you?”

Hansel frowned and said, “I think we should focus on how we should leave this place.”

Hansel’s words clearly conveyed the fact that he did not want to dwell on the topic any longer, but Rudy seemed to

not understand at all and continued with his questions.

He seemed insistent on getting to the root of everything. His actions caused Hansel to frown, and Jackie was forced

to pull Rudy back in exasperation.

“Can you please shut up? Why do you keep insisting on prying into his problems? What’s the point of knowing?”

Chapter 2488 Those words sent Rudy’s temper boiling. He said angrily, “What do you mean by that, Jackie?! Don’t

think that you can do whatever you want just because I let you off earlier!”

Jackie let out a cold laugh. What did he mean by letting Jackie off? Rudy had obviously just cowered under Jackie’s

strength. Jackie could not be bothered to answer and turned to look at Hansel.

He asked, “How did you end up in conflict with that one-eyed frost wolf?”

Jackie’s question was straight to the point. He could also find out how honest Hansel was from the answer. It

depended on what Hansel would hide for them.

After all, even though the three of them had saved Hansel, it was impossible to know if that person would repay his

debts. Jackie was nowhere near as gullible and naive as Rudy

and Grayson, easily believing someone.

Jackie’s question caused Hansel to fall silent for a few breaths. The color on his face had recovered quite a bit, and

he was no longer bleeding from his wounds.

He took a deep breath before saying, “I stole the Crimson Blood Fruit that it had been guarding. The wolf had been

out hunting and I happened to pass by its cave.

“I was already injured then, and the Crimson Blood Fruit is a rare recovery medicine, so I plucked it and ate it.

“I didn’t expect the wolf to return so quickly. It saw me putting the fruit into my mouth which angered it. Thankfully,

I have some skills myself, or I would have been ripped apart on the spot.”

Thinking about the scene back then, Hansel felt a wave of fear. If he had not frantically used all his skills to run

away, he might already be inside the mouth of that wolf.

When he noticed the fruit, he already expected that there would be a fiend guarding it.

However, in order to speed up his recovery, he threw those thoughts away as he stuffed the Crimson Blood Fruit

into his mouth.

The Crimson Blood Fruit was very good for recovery. After eating it, he immediately felt a lot better. Yet, it brought

him an even greater disaster. When the wolf saw him eating the fruit with its own eyes, it immediately went crazy.

Hansel pursed his lips helplessly, “That Crimson Blood Fruit looks like it’s already quite mature. That wolf must have

guarded it for many years and was probably planning on eating it to break through to a new level. Yet, I ate it

before the wolf could…”

Hearing his explanation, Jackie calmed down. If Hansel had tried to avoid the topic and made up something like him

meeting the wolf by coincidence, Jackie would have definitely questioned Hansel’s character.

After all, he had personally seen how crazed the one-eyed wolf looked when it was pursuing Hansel.

Even if fiends were the natural enemy of humans, they would not be so crazed.

“No wonder that one-eyed frost wolf looked so angered when it saw us bringing you in. You actually ate the fruit it

had been guarding for such a long time…” Rudy said with a raised eyebrow.

Hansel shook his head helplessly, “I don’t know what else to say. Spiritual objects belong to no one. The Crimson

Blood Fruit had no owner in the first place, whoever has it first owns it.

“Even though the wolf protected it for so many years, it did not mean it owned the Crimson Blood Fruit. There’s

nothing wrong with me eating it.”

Chapter 2489 Hansel did not feel that he had done anything wrong. Fiends and humans were natural enemies

anyway.

Grayson frowned, “Do you think the one-eyed wolf has left already?”

The question caused the thrilling atmosphere earlier to temporarily calm down. No one could answer Grayson’s

question. Even after a long time, no one spoke.

Grayson was forced to say himself, “I feel like he’s already left. We should be able to go out now. Even though the

wolf is vengeful of Hansel for eating its Crimson Blood Fruit, doesn’t mean it will stay waiting outside. We’ve been in

here so long without any movements, so surely it’s already left…”

The moment he finished saying that, he glanced at Jackie. Jackie’s lips twitched in

exasperation, not knowing what to say.

Jackie had clearly said earlier that the one-eyed wolf was still a wolf at the end of the day.

Wolves were naturally patient hunters. As long as a wolf had its eyes on something, it would stop at nothing to get

it.

Grayson had clearly heard what he had said earlier, but still asked that question. He was just incredibly curious if

the wolf had left or not.

Jackie frowned and said, “We can’t see what’s happening outside at all. If you want to open the vessel right now,

then you’ll be putting all of us in danger. If you want to die, then go ahead. I don’t want to throw myself into danger

because of you.”

Rudy nodded slightly, agreeing with what Jackie said, but not adding to it.

Grayson’s face reddened in anger at those words. He frantically struggled to stand up.

“I know you have always had your own opinion, but I don’t believe that everything will happen just as you said. I’ll

go out right now to see if that wolf is gone or not!”

Jackie looked up strangely at Grayson abruptly. He felt like Grayson was like a wild cow that could not be held back.

Jackie refused to believe that Grayson really was as much an unreasonable idiot as he seemed.

Yet, Grayson insisted on checking the situation outside. Jackie took a deep breath and said, “What exactly do you

want? Are you really not afraid that the wolf will bite onto your neck and drag you out the moment you open the

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

door?”

Grayson seemed a little emotional, but he waved around and said, “Then are we supposed to just wait around?

Both of us know how dangerous this place is. If we continued to wait, no one knows what would happen. I don’t

want to think about anything at this moment. I just want to leave as soon as possible!”

After saying that, Grayson slumped to the ground like he had used up all his strength. His mood was very

complicated. The more terrified he was of the place, the more he wanted to leave.

Before, he had complicated feelings about Grand Yorn Mountain. After all, Grand Yorn Mountain contained the most

fiends in all of Hestia Continent. It was also a famous place. Yet, the moment they arrived there, he realized how

small he was.

His future was incredibly bright, so he did not want to die there. He did not want to end up being lunch to a certain

beast. That was far too cruel for him. It was too much for him to accept.

Chapter 2490

“What’s in your hand?” At that moment, Hansel suddenly said as he looked at Jackie’s left hand.

Jackie raised an eyebrow as he looked at the red-colored crystal in his left hand. He opened up his palm and

showed the crystal to Hansel. Before he knew what exactly the crystal did, he did not plan on hiding it.

After all, the other two had also seen the crystal. They even wanted it for themselves. When Jackie revealed the

crystal, Hansel frowned as he looked at the crystal in Jackie’s palm in earnest.

After looking at it for a while, he suddenly looked up at Jackie and exclaimed, “You actually have a Scarlet Blood

Crystal!”

The words echoed in Jackie’s mind. It shocked Jackie a little, but he was mostly just confused. What was a Scarlet

Blood Crystal? Why had he never heard of it?

What could the Scarlet Blood Crystal be used for? After noticing that Hansel knew what that thing was, Jackie could

not help but feel excited. Yet, the alarm in his heart did not disappear.

He was worried that Hansel would not tell him the truth despite knowing what it was. He was worried that Hansel

would try to steal the crystal from him, but the next few words caused Jackie to relax.

Hansel frowned as he spat out, “This thing is incredibly valuable. Normally, people would never be able to see one.

I’ve only seen one in ancient texts before.

“I can’t believe I get to see one for myself. However, the crystal is mighty amazing, it’s not something a normal

person could use. Even I have no way of absorbing it.”

Those words were incredibly informative, causing Jackie to straighten his body. The Scarlet Blood Crystal still looked

the same,but Jackie seemed to feel sudden warm energy within the crystal.

Hansel’s explanation seemed like a bucket of cold water to Grayson and Rudy. They had wanted the Scarlet Blood

Crystal as well, especially after Hansel said it was valuable.

The next words caused the two of them to stop again. Rudy said, “Tell us clearly. Why can’t a normal person use it?

Why can’t you use it? Does a natural treasure require the rights to absorb it?”

Rudy’s words caused Hansel to laugh. He helplessly pursed his lips as he looked at Rudy earnestly. He frowned and

thought about it, and felt Rudy’s question was absurd.

After all, Rudy was only in the early innate stage. That amount of talent would only be able to barely qualify him to

be a runner disciple in the Seven Absolutes Pavillion. He would never get to become an outer disciple.

People like that would naturally know very little, but Rudy was still his savior, so he had to treat him politely.

He took a deep breath as he explained sincerely, “Absorbing natural treasures obviously require qualifications.

Those without the skill or the talent might end up exploding if they absorb too much energy.

“Clueless folk would just absorb any treasures they got without regard for anything to increase their powers. It

would merely end up in disaster.”

The words caused Rudy to turn red in embarrassment.

Even though Hansel was not mocking Rudy at all, it still caused Rudy to feel like he was too clueless.
