Chapter 1417 Energy Gathering Pill
“Are you saying that others can kill me while I cannot do the same to them?” Jared stared at Edgar
coldly. “I’ve killed him. What do you plan to do now?”
Edgar did not expect Jared to retort in such a domineering manner. A furious expression slowly spread
across Edgar’s face as he began emanating a terrifying aura from his body.
At that moment, Ryker walked over and patted Edgar’s shoulder, instantaneously suppressing the
latter’s aura. Ryker knew that was not the right place and time to target Jared.
He merely glanced at Jared before he strode toward the stage.
“Everyone, today is the day of the Trial hosted by the Deragon family. This is the first time our family is
organizing this event. I believe everyone present is an exceptional individual in the martial art world.
So, to express my sincere gratitude for your participation, I have deliberately prepared some energy-
gathering pills for all of you. My family hired an overseas alchemist to craft these energy-gathering pills,
which can bring many benefits to our bodies.”

With that, a few members of the Deragon family brought out a plate of energy-gathering pills and
started handing the pills to all the participants.
Delighted to receive the treat, everyone swallowed the energy-gathering pills without hesitation.
Most of them were thankful to the Deragon family for their generosity.
After they received their pills, Howard wanted to consume them immediately but was halted by Jared.
Jared picked up his energy-gathering pill and sniffed it. Then he crushed the pill in his hand and licked
the powder with the tip of his tongue.
His brows knitted together as a sullen expression descended upon his face.
Taking in Jared’s reaction, Howard hastily whispered, “Jared, is there something wrong with this
energy-gathering pill?”
“This energy-gathering pill contains musk. I am familiar with the art of crafting an energy-gathering pill,
and musk is not even an ingredient required to produce this pill. Although I do not yet know the harmful
effect of this energy-gathering pill, I am certain something fishy is going on. We should be careful, just
in case,” Jared said to Howard vigilantly.
“D*mn! Such audacity! How dare the Deragon family provide this adulterated pill to all the descendants
from so many influential sects and prominent families gathered here today? Are they planning to go
against the entire Jadeborough martial arts world?”
After cursing the Deragon family’s lowly behavior, Howard tossed the energy-gathering pill in his hand
to the floor.
Most people did not suspect the Deragon family would tamper with the energy-gathering pill because of
the sheer number of people participating in the event, encompassing almost all the Jadeborough
martial arts world’s sects and respectable families. They reckoned the Deragon family would not have
the guts to do something as foolish as that.
After all, if anything terrible happened, the entire Deragon family would have to face the risk of being
annihilated.
Astrid, who was standing nearby, secretly threw her energy-gathering pill on the floor as well after she
noticed Jared’s and Howard’s reluctance to eat their pills.

Ryker smirked faintly at the sight of everyone consuming the energy-gathering pills without hesitation.
After all the energy-gathering pills were distributed, four tall young men dressed in similar blue outfits
approached the crowd.
Poker-faced, each of them stood at a different corner of the plaza and waited for the Trial to end.
Everybody gazed at the four people in bafflement following their sudden emergence because they did
not look familiar.
The four young men did not seem to come from any sect or family from the Jadeborough martial arts
world. Nevertheless, since members of the Deragon family did not prohibit the four people from taking
part in the Trial, no one felt it was appropriate for them to probe further.
Jared narrowed his eyes and stared intently at those four newcomers.
“Jared, do you recognize these people?” Howard asked him.
Jared shook his head with his brows furrowed. “I don’t recognize them, but I am familiar with the aura
they are giving off.”
He could still sense their aura despite how faint it was.
