Chapter 2545 You Must Die
Francois and Brutus leaped up the next instant and pursued Jared. Now that the bloodthirsty beast was
savoring 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 if
they 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 he
looked 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 to
chase 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 up
with them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Ali, hurry up and run. Don't look back, and don't stop,” Jared reminded Ali, then he slowed down and
came to a halt.
He decided to stay behind to stall Francois and the others, buying time for Ali, Emily, and the rest to
escape.
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 bloodthirsty
beast, 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 to
him. 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 sword
spirit had recovered.
Francois and Brutus were slightly dazed at Jared's remark. They didn't expect Jared to utter such
audacious 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 on
Emerald Cauldron Sect. It seems Emerald Cauldron Sect has truly declined!” Chev arrived in time to
hear Jared's words and burst out laughing.
Francois and Brutus were beside themselves with rage, listening to Chev's mockery. Emerald Cauldron
Sect and the Nesser family had grudges in the first place, and now that Jared was putting them to
shame 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 at
Jared's head.
Jared was relieved to see Brutus attacking him. Although Brutus was relatively strong, it wouldn't be
easy for him to defeat Jared.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs long as Francois didn't interfere, Jared was certain he could eliminate Brutus.
The moment Brutus made his move, Jared swung Percy's sword. The blade's glint sliced through the
air.
“Brutus, retreat at once!”
The instant Jared launched his attack, Francois immediately realized the terrifying power of Jared's
strike. He knew Brutus stood no chance against the hit and was bound to suffer a loss, especially since
the latter was unarmed.
Despite Francois' warning, Brutus was a little slow to react. By the time he fell back and retracted his
arm, 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 been
injured 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.
