“I-H can hand you one of my bodily spirits. Then, I’ll be under your control, Xanthus offered.
Jared shook his head. “You’re a Sixth Level Tribulator cultivator. Even if you were to hand me one of your bodily
spirits, I wouldn’t be able to control you. At that time, if I were to crush your bodily spirit, only your cultivation would
be affected. Your life wouldn’t be at risk.”
“W-What do you want, then?” Xanthus had never expected the man to be so suspicious. Jared took out an orange
pill from his pocket and tossed it at Xanthus. “This is a poison, and only I can make the antidote. Swallow it now, and
I’ll let you go.”
With the poison in his hand, Xanthus threw it into his mouth without hesitation.
No matter the kind of poison, the most crucial thing right then was to safeguard his life. Seeing him swallow the pill
without hesitation, Jared smiled and asked, “You think the poison is fake?”
“No, no, I’ve decided to collaborate with you, so there’s no point hesitating, Mr. Chance.”

“All right, you may leave,” Jared said.
Xanthus was taken aback. “I can really leave?”
“Yes.” Jared nodded.
Xanthus got to his feet and headed out of the mayor’s residence without anyone pursuing him.
The instant he stepped out of the mayor’s residence, his gaze turned razor-sharp.
With a few leaps, he left Salinsburgh City.
“You really let that Demonic Cultivator leave, Mr. Chance? Someone like him never keeps his word,” Hamish asked
in bemusement upon seeing that Jared had truly allowed Xanthus to leave.
“It’s okay. Since I dare let him go, I naturally have my own plan,” Jared replied with a smile.
“Why is the Demon Seal Alliance following that Demonic Cultivator? And why is the Demon Seal Alliance hunting
you down?” Atlas asked with puzzlement written all over his face.
Jared recounted the grudge between him and the Demon Seal Alliance briefly. It went without saying that he also
brought the Demon Seal Alliance’s secret to light.
As soon as Atlas heard that, he exclaimed in surprise, “I didn’t expect the Demon Seal Alliance to collude with the
Demonic Cultivators. We’ve all been fooled all these years. Fortunately, the Demon Seal Alliance doesn’t have a
branch in Salinsburgh City. Otherwise, I’d have wiped it out right away.”
“Now that Ms. Jablonski is fully recovered, should be taking my leave.”
Jared planned to leave the mayor’s residence and go to Victor’s place as soon as possible to absorb celestial
energy.
“You saved my daughter, so feel free to propose any term you want, Mr. Chance. Or if you prefer spirit coins, you
can also ask for however much you like,” Atlas offered generously.
“I don’t need anything. As I’ve said, I only saved your daughter because of my deal with Mr. Victor. He has already
given me the item I need.”

“Let’s go!” Victor bobbed his head. When they arrived back at his place, he unhesitatingly dismantled the arcane
arrays around the celestial tree.
The moment the arcane arrays were dismantled, a gust of celestial energy hit them in the face.
“This tree is now yours.”
Victor was not the least bit reluctant, for the celestial tree was nothing compared to Effie. Without saying anything
further, Jared sat cross-legged under the tree and started cultivating.
Seeing that, everyone quickly left the backyard, locking the door behind them. On top of that, Hamish gathered
everyone and started positioning them to guard over Jared.
Although Jared was only at Body Fusion Realm, everyone had witnessed his performance throughout the journey.
A giant among men like him was exceedingly rare, and they all believed that they would definitely gain something
by following Jared to Demonia Mountain this time.
As Jared absorbed the celestial energy, Focus Technique within him circulated relentlessly. Soon, the day
transitioned to night. He sat under the tree for two whole days and nights.
