No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 2181

Jackie’s expression darkened when he heard Elder Godfrey’s explanation. “Does this mean that this Secret place for

Resources welcomes the entry of us outsiders? Is it possible that the place was left behind by some ancient master,

and he did this in search of his inheritor?”

Elder Godfrey nodded. “I highly recommend that you go into the place because my deduction is that the Secret

Place for Resources is an inheritance left behind by an ancient master.”

Jackie exhaled deeply. Elder Godfrey raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder. “Don’t give yourself too much

pressure. If you run into danger, remember that your safety is more important, and you shouldn’t act impulsively.”

After he said this, Elder Godfrey touched the Tortoise Ring on his left hand with his right hand. Jackie only saw a

flash of black light before a token the size of his palm appeared in Elder Godfrey’s hand. The token was of a weird

shape, and it was filled with engravings of all kinds of incomprehensible runes and spells. There was even a faint

flash of red colored light in it.

Elder Godfrey looked at the entry token for some time before placing it in Jackie’s hands after sighing softly. “You

can enter the Secret Place for Resources through the space caves at any time with this token.”

Jackie nodded and tightened his grasp on the entry token.

Elder Godfrey glanced at Jackie and added, “I don’t recommend others traveling with you, and you have to turn

down anyone searching for you. I think that you should enter the secret place on your own. Even If you entered the

space cave with company, you’d be separated by the chaotic space and be sent to different areas in the secret

place. Hence, it’s useless to travel with others. The companionship will only be helpful if you meet other people in

the secret place and form them there.”

They would be separated and be sent to other places when traveling into the Secret Place for Resources through

the space caves. If that was the case, it really did not make much sense to travel with others. Only the people he

met in the secret place could be regarded as his companions.

Elder Godfrey picked up the teapot and poured tea for them both. “The human heart has been unpredictable since

ancient times. We can’t simply trust anyone, even if they’re our sect brothers. When you encounter something

valuable, your relationship will become as brittle as window paper, and a mere breeze will tear it apart. He’ll

instantly turn into your enemy.”

Jackie nodded and said, “I understand what you mean. Don’t worry- I didn’t plan to travel with others.”

Two days later, Jackie finally arrived at his destination after being transported several times by the transporter. It

was a plot of desert land in the north west direction of the West Cercei State, which was the only desert in the

entire state. Unexpectedly, the Secret Place for Resources was hidden in this piece of desert, and the sun high in

the sky scorched the land.

Jackie walked across the desert with Nash by his side. After all, they were outside the Dual Sovereign Pavilion, and

there were not that many scruples.

Nash knew that after what happened these couple of days, the remaining journey was still worrisome. He sighed

helplessly. “Forgive my nags, but I think that this journey to the Secret Place for Resources might be challenging,

and you need to be incredibly careful.”

Jackie chuckled and said, “I’m sure that a lot will happen, and I’m not taking this trip like a walk in the park. I’m

going on a treasure hunt, and since we’re on a treasure hunt, we’ll definitely be fighting with others over precious

treasures.”

Chapter 2182

“A terrible battle might happen by then, and the people from the Corpse Pavilion will also be involved. The

environment will be extremely terrible when we go in.”

Nash grew increasingly worried when he heard this. He stopped walking and stretched out his hand to tug at

Jackie’s arm. “If that’s the case, why do you want to go in? You might run into all sorts of danger after you go in.

Aren’t you afraid? You’re not the strongest…”

“I’m definitely afraid, but I can’t stop here just because of my fear. Martial arts is a journey of going against nature

to change our lives. If we don’t go against nature and move forward, we’ll only be mediocre.”

Nash could only sigh helplessly when he heard this. He said nothing and continued following behind Jackie as they

headed toward the Secret Place for Resources. Jackie took the map out for reference for every 50 meters they

traveled. Elder Godfrey personally drew this map for Jackie, and it was to provide guidance to Jackie on the position

of the Secret Place for Resources.

Jackie looked at the map in detail, and after some time, he remarked, “We’re correct; this should be the place…but

why does it seem so lacking? All I see here is sand.”

Nash also moved closer and looked on the map, even though he did not understand the map. At this moment, an

obvious mocking sneer could be heard from behind them.

Jackie was startled at this and turned to look back…to see a familiar face.

“Griffin?”

Jackie had never imagined that he would bump into Griffin in this place. After all, nobody apart from Elder Godfrey

knew that he had come out from the Dual Sovereign Pavilion, and he should not have run into Griffin. There was

another man beside Griffin, and they had similar facial features.

The name ‘Howard Olsen’ subconsciously appeared in Jackie’s thoughts after he saw this person. Was this Howard?

However, Elder Godfrey had informed him previously that there are only 20 tokens, and after he took up one of the

spots, only the top six formal disciples would be chosen. It had nothing to do with Howard.

Griffin scoffed indignantly and walked two steps forward. He sized Jackie up with a mocking look in his eyes. “Who

would’ve expected for us to have such a great fate? I never expected to meet you here.”

Jackie frowned as shock overwhelmed him. Truth be told, the surprise did not come just because he bumped into

Griffin and his brother here; it was because he failed to notice anybody around him and did not even pick up the

sound of footsteps. It seemed like the Olsen brothers suddenly appeared behind his back, which creeped out Jackie.

However, Griffin failed to realize what Jackie was thinking of.

He glanced at Nash, who stood behind Jackie. “Who’s this? He’s only in the final stage of the acquired level. Is he

your errand man? If that’s the case, this will be even mode hilarious. Are you unable to take care of yourself? Why

do you need to bring an errand man with you to such a place?”

Jackie’s anger exploded when he heard this. Jackie could still hold himself back if they were just jabbing at himself,

but what Griffin said was aimed at Nash.

Jackie narrowed his eyes and pulled Nash behind him. “You better watch what you’re saying; stop saying everything

that comes to mind like that. What does what I do have to do with you? Keep your nose out of my business. If you

have that much time in your hands, help someone walk their dog, and don’t come barking by my ears.”

Although Jackie’s words were nowhere vulgar, they were bluntly rebuking Griffin.

Griffin’s face blushed a crimson color as he had never experienced such treatment. He stretched out his right hand,

and his sword was unleashed from its sheath audibly. The silver sword shone brightly under the sun. Griffin held the

sword with his right hand and pointed it at Jackie’s face.

Chapter 2183

Jackie, however, merely smirked, nowhere scared or intimidated

“B*stard!” roared Griffin. “How dare you disrespect me! I’m going to kill you!”

With that, Griffin activated his true energy and was about to attack Jackie when Howard, who stood behind Griffin,

grabbed his brother’s shoulder when he noticed Griffin was about to attack. “Brother, this isn’t the time to fight! No

matter what, we’re disciples from the same sect, and we’re surrounded by space caves. If the space around us is

disrupted, a person might suddenly appear out of nowhere. By then, news of what happened to this guy might

spread. I’m sure you know the rules of our sect: you’ll be punished if he dies or is badly wounded by your hand.”

The Dual Sovereign Pavilion forbade their disciples from killing one another at places outside of their sect

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

Griffin’s face was slightly pale as he stared at Jackie. The muscles on his face slightly trembled. “Don’t get too

cocky, b*stard. I may not be able to kill you now, but this doesn’t mean that your luck will stay up after leaving the

secret place! On top of that, I’m not the only one who wants to kill you. You’ve offended so many people, and you

may just perish before I can do anything to you!”

The sword in Griffin’s hands once again returned to the sheath with a wave of his sleeve. He sneered and looked

around before moving his hands, activating his true energy and punching the space before him.

Ripples appeared in the space in front of him. A flash of happiness flashed past Griffin’s eyes as he walked toward

the area where the ripples were most apparent. Griffin took out his entry token and pushed it forward.

The entry token looked like it had been dropped into water as it was swallowed by the space in front of him.

The next moment, a bright light shone over Griffin and he disappeared in front of them. Howard seemed

unsurprised by what happened.

He turned to look at Jackie. “Are you wondering why I’m here, even though there aren’t any spots left for me?”

Jackie pursed his lips speechlessly. He was definitely curious, but the thought had just flashed past his mind and he

did not wish to get to the bottom of it. However, Howard spoke as if Jackie was extremely eager to find out what

was going on.

Jackie scoffed and did not even spare a glance at Howard, yet Howard could tell Jackie was all too curious of the

reason. He thus smirked and turned to face Jackie. “Our family has certain power in the Dual Sovereign Pavilion,

and it isn’t difficult for me to obtain a spot as long as I want it. My brother tried to preserve your prestige by asking

you to give up the spot, yet you turned us down… You truly can’t differentiate good from bad.”

With that, Howard took his entry token before Jackie managed to say anything. He let the entry token combine with

the space caves before the light also covered his entire body. He, just like Griffin, disappeared into the space cave

and entered the Secret Place for Resources.

The corners of Jackie’s mouth twitched speechlessly. Both the brothers of the Olsen family had the same

temperament. They were eccentric and unreasonable.

Chapter 2184 What Howard had said implied that they had shown him some respect by asking him to give up the

spot, yet Jackie failed to recognize their kindness by refusing

Jackie could not help but sneer. Some of these people were painfully peculiar, and they were always capable of

coming up with some presumptuous reasons. Jackie only felt that they were ridiculous.

Nash’s expression darkened. “Why are these two people so despicable? What on earth are they talking about? Why

should you give the spot to him? And you’re being unreasonable for not doing so? Who does he think he is?”

“He thinks that he’s a god and can step on anybody, but his plans are useless to me,” remarked Jackie with a cold

expression on his face. Nash sighed helplessly and felt that nothing in this place was going smoothly. Things were so

much simpler when they were in Daxia.

However, Jackie was so focused on pursuing the pinnacle of martial arts, and he definitely could not say anything

discouraging.

Nash turned and looked at Jackie with a serious expression on his face. “You have to be careful after you enter the

secret place. Be on your best guard as those two brothers will surely trouble you there.”

Jackie nodded and looked around him. He sighed helplessly, unable to form his thoughts with what Elder Godfrey

did. The elder reminded him of so many things but had forgotten about the most important part…

Jackie had no idea on how to enter the space caves, more so had Griffin not display how to do so just moments ago.

It turned out that the space around him was filled with space caves. However, one had to stimulate the surrounding

space with his true energy to find the middle point of the space caves.

Just moments ago, the Olsen brothers appeared so soundlessly because Jackie was surrounded by space caves that

could block a person’s sight and sound. This was a place with mountains of uneven height. The land was covered

with weed, and he raised his head to see a huge tree. However, the mountains blocked a large area, and he could

see no further.

Jackie looked up and was unable to see the sun, but his surroundings were bright like it was noon. Jackie turned

around in place and got familiar with his surroundings, exhaling deeply upon not sensing any form of danger.

This was the legendary Secret Place for Resources. With the Mustard Seed as his tool, Jackie was able to bring

everybody in the Mustard Seed into the area, even though he only had one entry token.

Nash continued to stand by Jackie’s side. He looked at the uneven mountains surrounding them and said, We’re

lucky that we weren’t transported to some extremely dangerous area. We’d be terribly unlucky if so.”

Jackie knelt and simply picked a small piece of weed up efore placing it under his nose to give it a sniff. He then

rubbed the weed in his hands.

Nash chuckled and said helplessly, “Why are you acting like a child when you’re already at this age?”

Jackie chuckled and replied, “I just wanted to check if this world is real.”

Nash could not help but frown when he heard this.” What do you think?”

Jackie flicked the weed away before taking out a piece of tissue to wipe the dirt and green leaves on his hand. “It

should be real. However, I question the authenticity of the area. The feeling is too realistic.”

Nash felt that he was at a loss when he heard what Jackie said. The corners of his mouth twitched helplessly. He

was about to say something when Jackie suddenly grabbed his arm.

Chapter 2185 Nash looked at Jackie with widened eyes.

Jackie frowned as he lowered his voice. “Hurry back into the Mustard Seed. I can feel something approaching.”

Nash paled when he heard this. He dared not delay and immediately entered the Mustard Seed, leaving Jackie the

only one left standing there.

Jackie frowned as he widened his eyes while scanning his surroundings. It was still the same uneven mountains and

vast skies. After three breaths, the soft footsteps became clear ahead of him.

Jackie looked up and subconsciously inhaled. There was a slightly taller mountain 40 to 50 meters away from him,

and a three-headed wolf stood on the mountain

This three-headed wolf was one-feet-tall and stood on the highest peak of the mountain, casting a shadow. The

three wolf heads appeared to share the same body, and its six eyes stared straight at Jackie. The corners of

Jackie’s mouth twitched as he subconsciously assessed the three-headed wolf’s fighting prowess…only to fail to

determine its fighting prowess in the end.

Jackie was even more at a loss when he realized this.

He had gone through all the ancient scrolls to understand the Hestia Continent, but none of them described the

three-headed wolf. This resulted in Jackie’s bewilderment, and doubt of actually defeating this beast rose within

him.

Jackie inhaled deeply and took ten black daggers out from the Mustard Seed. The black daggers floated in mid-air

as Jackie raised his hands. The black fog covered the ten black daggers, and they were like venomous fangs of a

viper. 1

The three-headed wolf understood that Jackie was about to attack itself and glanced at Jackie from high above with

its six eyes. A hint of disdain flashed through the wolf’s eyes, and the corners of Jackie’s mouth twitched helplessly.

Had the three-headed wolf possibly broken through into the spring solidifying realm?

Why else would the wolf act in such a high and mighty manner? The three-headed wolf slowly prowled toward

Jackie with steady steps. Jackie inhaled deeply as he wanted to test the three-headed wolf’s fighting prowess. If he

was unable to defeat the wolf, he could turn around and escape without turning back!

Just when he was about to activate Destroying the Void, the sound of something traveling through the sky suddenly

came from far away. A long arrow came shooting from far away with extreme speed. The arrow was surrounded

by a circle of ghostly pale blue flames.

The three-headed wolf looked fierce and disdainful, even as the arrow came flying. All three wolf-heads opened

their mouths at the same time and looked like they were about to perform their strongest attack. However, the long

arrow was too fast, and before the three-headed wolf was capable of releasing its attack, the arrow covered in blue

flames plunged into the middle-head audibly.

The three-headed wolf instantly let out a piercing scream and fell to the ground as it lost its balance. The wolf kept

rolling around on the floor as if it wanted to try pulling the long arrow stuck in his head out.

“Are you alright, young brother?!” a comforting voice came from far away.

Jackie turned around to take a look and saw a man in the costume of the Thousand Leaves Pavilion’s formal

disciples rushing toward him from afar. Jackie raised his eyebrows and did not put his weapon away.

Although this person was from the Thousand Leaves Pavilion, Jackie could not guarantee if this individual had

ulterior motives. As he came closer, Jackie discovered that he was not alone; there were three more people

following behind him. However, not all three of these men were disciples of the Thousand Leaves Pavilion. Two of

them had on the costume of the Muddled Origin Clan’s formal disciples.

Jackie raised his brows in surprise and nodded to the person standing in front.

Chapter 2186 Heath Vay chuckled. “You don’t need to be afraid. This three-headed wolf is only at the initial stage of

innate level and he’s extremely dumb. The wolf thinks that it’s invincible on this hill.”

Jackie relaxed when he heard what this person said. In the beginning, he suspected that the three-headed wolf was

in the spring solidifying realm. After all, he was unable to assess the other party’s fighting prowess if they had a

higher fighting prowess compared to him. However, it did not make sense for him to fail in identifying this three-

headed wolf’s fighting prowess if the wolf was only in the initial stage of innate level.

Heath knew what Jackie was thinking from the expression on his face. A smile appeared as he explained, “The rules

of this world’s heaven and earth are different from that of the outside world. You can’t use the old way to learn

about the monster beast’s fighting prowess, but instead, you need to judge it by the aura they release.”

Jackie nodded as he was unable to completely understand what the man was talking about. In fact, both the

Thousand Leaves Pavilion’s disciples treated him affectionately but the disciples from the Muddled Origin Clan

looked at him in a slightly different manner. There was a hint of mockery in their eyes as they examined him. Jackie

was not surprised when the disciples from the Muddled Origin Clan looked at him in such a way. After all, the Dual

Sovereign Pavilion and the Muddled Origin Clan had a long history. It was natural for them to not have a good

attitude toward him when they spotted the Dual Sovereign Pavilion’s costume on him.

After a brief introduction, everybody got to know each other. Among the two disciples from the Thousand Leaves

Pavilion, the one who spoke to him was Heath Vay while the one standing behind was Byron Reid. As for the

disciples from the Muddled Origin Clan, one of them was Frank Wack and Edric Law. Those two had an indifferent

attitude toward Jackie. Jackie did not respond to their attitude and was indifferent toward them as well.

Heath chuckled and said while saluting with his hands, “Destiny gathered us here. We are still wandering among

these hills after walking around for more than half a day. However, I received news from the elders that these

mountains aren’t the only thing in the Secret Place for Resources. There are also continuous mountains and an

endless piece of wasteland. If there aren’t any companions when traveling in this big piece of land, the dangers we

face in the secret place might be life-threatening. Hence, I propose that we travel together. We shall treat each

other sincerely and we will help one another when danger arises, am I right?”

When they took action to kill the three-headed wolf, Jackie had already guessed that they were here to form an

alliance with him. Jackie frowned but did not immediately reply to Heath. He was used to traveling alone and he

would be restricted if he traveled with others due to the number of secrets he was keeping.

However, this was an unfamiliar and dangerous place for Jackie. If he continued traveling alone, he might run into a

dangerous situation that he was unable to resolve. If the five of them traveled together, their chances of survival

would be higher. Jackie nodded earnestly when he thought of this.

However, the Muddled Origin Clan’s disciple, Frank, had already humphed coldly and started speaking before Jackie

was able to speak. “Young man, what are you hesitating about? We are at the final stage of innate level and we’re

at a disadvantage for bringing you, one who’s at the intermediate stage of innate level. How dare you hesitate? Do

you think that we will cause you trouble?”

In fact, Jackie had only paused for around three breaths and he did not expect Frank to proactively find fault with

him. Jackie glanced at Frank and he could see the frown on Frank’s face as he stared at Jackie in disdain. The

expression on his face was accusing how ungrateful Jackie was.

Jackie sneered. “Everybody has their own concerns and there is nothing between us that can bring us down.”

Chapter 2187 Frank’s face was slightly darkened when he heard how straightforward Jackie was. “You’re such a

shameless boast. Who did you say will be bringing the other down? How dare you! Why don’t you open your eyes

and take a good look! Look at your fighting prowess and our fighting prowess. Just now, we only took action

because we thought that we would have another member who’s in the final stage of the innate level. However, we

realized that you’re just a young man in the intermediate stage after we came closer.”

Jackie arched his brow when Frank turned aggressive; he kept making a scene out of Jackie’s fighting prowess to

suppress him. Jackie did not wish to have a dispute with them if these two people had not provoked him. However,

he was unable to withstand It any longer as Frank kept causing him trouble.” What’s the issue about the

intermediate stage and final stage of the innate level? Do you think that you can walk around and do anything you

want because you’re in the final stage of the innate level? To be honest, your fighting prowess means nothing to

me. If you are unconvinced, just have a duel with me right now.“

Frank, who stood in front of Jackie, was at the same level as Oliver and Jackie really did not pay much attention to

him. However, Frank was furious after he heard what Jackie said. He suddenly rushed forward and pointed at

Jackie’s face. “What an arrogant young man! How dare you challenge me?! Alright! I shall show you the meaning of

suppression from a higher realm!”

He touched his storage ring with his right hand and a three-foot-long sword appeared in his hand. The sword was

red in color and looked like it was burning with endless flames.

Heath immediately rushed forward with a frown on his face and grabbed Frank’s right hand. “Let’s discuss this

nicely and not fight among ourselves. Do you know what time it is right now?! If we really get into a fight, not only

will it hurt our relationship, we would be suffering losses. Why don’t you guys think about it? This isn’t our respective

sects and this place is filled with all sorts of danger. We have no idea when the enemies or strong monster beasts

will appear. Hence, we definitely can’t start a fight among ourselves!”

Frank was so angry that the muscles on his face were slightly trembling. Heath held his right arm so tightly that he

was unable to release his arm. He could only give up his plans of fighting with the young man in front of him.

However, the look in his eyes grew increasingly fierce as he looked at Jackie. He looked like he was going to chop

Jackie into pieces if Heath did not stop him.

Jackie sighed helplessly. He had no idea that he would be provoked by others when he had done nothing wrong. In

fact, there was nothing wrong with how Jackie reacted. Frank took this opportunity to find fault with him because he

had a lower fighting prowess and he was a disciple of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion.

Jackie sneered when he thought of this. “Senior Brother Heath is correct. This place is extremely dangerous and we

won’t gain anything if we fight here. However, I’m not frightened if you wish to fight with me forcefully.”

Frank laughed coldly and a mocking look appeared in his eyes. He put away the sword he had in his hand and pulled

his right hand out from Heath’s grip. He waved his sleeves and raised his chin arrogantly as he said to Jackie, “You

have to thank Senior Brother Heath for coming forward to speak on your behalf. If not, what happened today will

not end here.”

Jackie did not wish to argue with somebody like him. If he wanted to take action, Jackie would naturally show him

what it meant to carry out challenges from a lower level.

Chapter 2188

Heath turned to Jackie. He laughed dryly to ease the tension. “Don’t mind him, Brother Jackie. He’s a quick talker,

but he means no harm.”

Frank looked unhappy after hearing that, and wanted to say a few more words, but was stopped by Edric who was

standing beside him. Edric frowned and shook his head discreetly at Frank, indicating to him to not start a dispute at

this time. Frank breathed out deeply, trying to restrain his anger. He averted his eyes away from Jackie.

Jackie nodded noncommittally.

Heath took two steps forward and said again, “You’re one of us now that you’ve agreed to join us.”

His words were both hypocritical and highfalutin. Jackie would not take these words into his heart.

Heath then pointed at the dead three-headed wolf on the ground and said, “Since we’re all team members now,

you’ll need to know some ground rules. Everyone is here to get their hands on some good items. Although we came

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

here not long ago, we have already discovered some spirited grass and spirited herb and killed some monster

beasts.

“All of these are good stuff. It was hard to equally divide the goods when there were four of us, so I made a small

rule. When it comes to spirited grass and spirited herb, whoever saw it first has the claim to it. When it comes to

monster beasts, the most valuable item will go to the one who made the most attack or gave the fatal blow. As for

other things, we’ll cross the bridge when we come to it.”

Jackie just nodded and said nothing. However, in his heart, he started to analyze Heath. All the things he had

mentioned sounded fair, but all those spirited grass, spirited herb, and the things on the monster beasts were only

common items in the Secret Place for Resources. Naturally, they were there to find an uncommon master treasure.

According to legend, that place was an inheritance left by the ancient masters. Maybe they would find the

inheritance of the ancient masters. When it came to that, how would it be distributed? Jackie was sure Heath would

not be a pushover when it came to the more uncommon items.

Jackie was no fool; he would not be worthy of being called a human if he did not catch the hidden meaning behind

Heath’s words. The fact that he said that they would all cross the bridge when it came to the other things meant

that he was leaving a way out for himself.

Heath remained smiling amicably, like a fresh breath of air. “This three-headed wolf was slain by Brother Byron. We

didn’t do anything so the spirited core and all the other valuable items on the wolf belong to him.”

After he said that, Byron did not even bother to see what the others were feeling before walking over to the three-

headed wolf corpse. He took out a short blade from the storage ring, cut open the wolf’s abdomen very skillfully,

and pulled out a light gray spirited core.

He took a piece of white rag, wiped off the blood on It, and stored the three-headed wolf’s spirited core into his

storage ring in front of everyone. Nobody said a word throughout the whole process. The amicable smile never left

Heath’s face as he swept his eyes across everyone.

Jackie arched his brow and looked at the three-headed wolf’s corpse silently. ‘This wolf would have died under my

hand if these people didn’t show up just now.’ At this thought, he laughed bitterly to himself. “They knew that this

wolf is an initial stage of innate level, which is something I can easily slay, and yet they still decided to snatch it from

right under my nose. What ground rules? Those are just something they pulled out to make it so they could claim

the wolf for themselves!”

Chapter 2189

The way Heath made it sound was as if there was nothing suspicious about what he said, but it did not take a rocket

scientist to figure out something was off with the whole arrangement. It was obvious that Heath only cared about

his sect brothers and not the so-called ‘brother’ like Jackie.

“Hey, why are you looking at the three-headed wolf like that? Are the ground rules not to your liking? Don’t tell me

you think everything rightfully belongs to you!” said Frank provocatively when he saw Jackie being all silent.

Jackie frowned, and he turned his darkened face toward Frank, who was arching his brow and looking at him

contemptuously. Jackie scoffed, thinking that they must have thought he was a pushover. He was about to say

something when Heath cut in,” Nonsense. Why would you say that when Brother Jackie didn’t even say anything?

Besides, from the very first impression, I can tell that he’s the type that considers the overall situation. I’m sure he

doesn’t have any ill-will toward us. Am I right, Brother Jackie?”

‘Considers the overall situation? Does that mean that I’ll be deemed unrighteous if my opinion differs from theirs?

Wow, this Heath is quite the manipulator,’ thought Jackie. Then, he chuckled, and said, “I’m not really one to take

the overall situation into consideration. The overall situation is quite reasonable so I don’t mind going along with it.

However, I do wonder why you thought that I was unhappy with the ground rules when I didn’t say anything or

showed any unhappiness on my face.”

The last sentence was, of course, directed at Frank. He narrowed his eyes and stuck out his neck like a cock ready

for a fight. “Did you think that I didn’t see the look on your face just now? What do you take me for? A fool? You

should be grateful that we’re willing to let an innate stage level kid like you join our team! I can’t believe after all

that, you dare to look at the wolf like that.”

“Like what?” The lines on Jackie’s forehead got deeper and deeper. He had decided then and there that he would

teach Frank a lesson if he did not give I tup.

“It was obvious from the look in your eyes that you want to claim the three-headed wolf for yourself. I’m really

curious to know what the elders in the Dual Sovereign Pavilion are thinking. Why would they let an intermediate

stage of an innate level kid like you enter when the quota is limited to twenty people? Could it be that the Dual

Sovereign Pavilion has fallen so far that they lack a strong final stage of innate level disciples, so they had to use a

kid like you to make up the numbers?”

Frank roared with laughter with unconcealed disdain after saying all that. This was the straw that broke the camel’s

back. Jackie stepped forward and took out the black daggers from the Mustard Seed Spirit Ship.

Heath frowned and looked at Frank unhappily. He quickly walked up to him and pulled his shoulder.” Are you done?

Brother Jackie didn’t say anything at all, so just shut up, okay? And you shouldn’t judge others by their cultivation

level. You should know that masters could challenge those above their level.”

Chapter 2190

Frank arched his brow, and said nonchalantly, “Each one of us here in the Secret Place for Resources is a master.”

Heath furrowed his brow, and was about to say something else but was stopped by Edric. He turned around and

said, “Brother Frank, please just stop there. Don’t forget we’re all a team and should have each other’s backs. I

strongly suggest that you watch what you say from now on or else…I won’t help you with the thing that you want.”

Edric’s last sentence was filled with hidden implications. Frank pursed his lips, and unwillingly dropped down his

head, and said, “Okay, Brother Edric.”

Edric heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Frank’s acquiescence. “I know you hold a very deep grudge against the

Dual Sovereign Pavilion but you shouldn’t take it out on every Dual Sovereign Pavilion’s disciples that you meet.”

‘Ah, the grudge between him and the Dual Sovereign Pavilion explains why he was acting so offensively toward me.

But he should take it out on the sect, not me or the other disciples.’ Thought Jackie. He made a mental note to

himself to make Frank pay for all the things he said some other days.

They soon set eastward after Heath said a few more perfunctory things. It was their first time in the Secret Place

for Resources so they were not familiar with the environment. The only thing they could do was to choose a

direction and continue on that path with perseverance.

The hill was bigger than they imagined. After walking for two or three hours, they still could not see the edge. The

rolling hills blocked most of their sight. Just to be on the safe side, they decided to go by foot instead of air and

became exhausted after walking for so long

Jackie thought that it was nothing, but Frank started to complain. “Going on foot takes too long, and it doesn’t look

like we’re going to reach the edge anytime soon. We should just go by air!”

Heath glanced sideways at Frank, and said, “No. Have you forgotten what happened when we tried to go by air?

Yes, I admit it’s tiring to go by foot, but it’s also safer this way.”

Frank curled his lips in disapproval, and said in a low voice, “We were caught off guard before. We’ll just need to be

more vigilant this time. Besides, it’s not like there will be so many dangers for us to run into.”

Heath frowned unhappily when he heard that. He was already a little annoyed by his non-stop talking, but still

managed to squash down his frustration after reminding himself they were all in this together, and that they would

need to work together In the face of danger.

Edric glanced at Frank and patted him on the shoulder. “You promised me you’ll keep your mouth shu… Huh? What

is that over there?”

The surprise in his voice caught everyone’s attention. He took two quick steps forward, climbed to a nearby

plateau, and pointed to a distance. “What Is that? It… it…it looks like a giant monster beast!”

Everyone climbed to the highest point of the hill, Looking in the direction of Edric’s finger, they saw a huge monster

beast lying curled up on the ground at a distance of about 400 yards from them. However, they were too far away

to identify what kind of monster beast it was. “Let’s go check it out!” said Byron excitedly.
