Chapter 2268 Familiar Face
As they ventured deeper into the mountain, Jared frowned because he sensed powerful auras from his surrounding.
After walking for a while, Kayden abruptly raised his hand, halting others from advancing.
Then, he shot a glance at a subordinate. The subordinate nodded, rapidly leaped into the air, and traveled across
the trees.
Soon, that subordinate returned and reported, “There are more than a dozen people ahead of us, Mr. Macall. I
think they're from other secret realms. I didn't have the nerve to get too close to them, so I couldn't see their faces
clearly.”
“We'll take a detour and avoid them.” Kayden preferred to avoid a conflict with people from other secret realms.

“I think it’s too late for that,” uttered Jared.
Kayden was stunned before over a dozen auras surrounded them.
The unexpected combatants surprised Jared because he knew who their leader was. It was Claus, the man Jared
met on Encanta Island in the past.
Claus was similarly surprised to see Jared. This is a resource area that only people from the Eight Major Secret
Realms can enter, so why is he here? Isn't he someone from the mundane world?
Kayden politely waved at Claus and greeted, “Well, well, I didn't expect to see Mr. Lassen from Waxing Crescent
Castle here. To think you're already hunting demon beasts so soon after the entrance to the demon beast secret
realm was opened.”
“Aren't you doing the same, Mr. Macall?” sneered Claus.
“I've only just arrived, so I haven't met any demon beast yet. What about you?”
Claus shook his head. “It's the same for me. I haven't gotten any beast cores so far.”
"In that case, how about we travel together? It's been years, so there's no telling how much stronger the demon
beasts have grown. If we work together, we'll at least be capable of defeating high-level demon beasts,” proposed
Kayden.
No one knew what to expect after the demon beast secret realm was sealed for many years. However, he was still
curious about the danger present in the mountain, which was why he suggested traveling together.
After a brief moment of hesitation, Claus glanced at Jared and nodded. “Sure, but we'll split the beast cores we get
equally.”
“No problem. By working together, perhaps we'll even slay a few high-ranking demon beasts.” Kayden beamed.

With that, Jared's group swelled in size. Meanwhile, Claus casually approached Jared.
In response, Jared studied Claus briefly. xo He has grown more powerful compared to the last time we met on
Encanta Island. His life force energy feels different. It seems like the laws of nature are still heavily suppressed in
the mundane world.
“Mr. Lassen!” greeted Zain when he saw Claus.
Claus nodded before turning to Jared. “I didn’t expect to see you here. I'm surprised.”
“I feel the same.” Jared grinned.
Upon witnessing that exchange, Zain was bewildered. "You know Mr. Lassen, Mr. Chance?”
“I met him once before.”
“I'm curious. You're a rogue cultivator in the mundane world. How did you earn the right to enter the demon beast
secret realm?” inquired Claus.
“It's because Mr. Chance is part of the Gunderson family, Mr. Macall,” answered Evangeline.
Claus glanced at her with a faint, silent smile but said nothing.
