Chapter 1805
Joel seemed to be the only one unaffected by this. His face was covered in cold sweats as he kept
shaking the bronze handbell, hoping to snap his subordinates out of their frenzied states.
However, regardless of how loudly he rang the bell, it seemed to have no effect.
In the end, Joel had no choice but to put the bronze handbell away and turn to escape the fog.
As for his subordinates, he decided to abandon them.
“What do we do, Mr. Chance?-’ asked Gilbert, looking at Jared.
Jared glanced at a red-eyed Danny. He finally decided to take action and grabbed Danny by the wrist
before forcing spiritual energy into his body.
Danny immediately came to his senses. When he saw Jared and liis party, shock inundated him.
“You're... You're alive?”
Danny had assumed that Jared and company were eaten by the tiger demon ages ago.

Jared was worried that Danny would be distracted and manipulated by the fog once more. As such, he
quickly escaped the fog with Danny and the others in tow.
Danny watched helplessly as his bloodthirsty subordinates slaughtered each other mercilessly. Despite
his reluctance to leave, there was nothing he could do.
Jared and his companions soon rushed out of the fog. After a while, they turned around and looked
back, only to find that the fog had vanished.
On the snowy ground, there were more than a dozen corpses lying here and there. Every single one of
them was from Flaming Sect.
“Danny!” exclaimed Joel, who seemed to have sensed Danny's aura.
Joel had fled the fog by himself with nary a care for anyone else. As such, he found it odd that he could
sense Danny's aura.
“I'm right here. Mr. Joel!” responded Danny.
Joel said nothing, but liis brows were knitted into a tight frown.
“Danny, who are you with? Why are their auras so powerful?”
Joel slowly pulled out his bronze handbell and braced himself, preparing to defend himself from
whatever impending threat.
Because Jared and the others had concealed their auras earlier, the auras that Joel could sense now
were completely different from before.
Never in his wildest dreams would he know that these were the same people whom he forced to battle
the tiger demon earlier.
“Mi; Joel, they are the travelers we met along the way,” replied Danny.
Joel was taken aback. “That's impossible! How can this be? Why are their auras so powerful?”
He was in disbelief. If they're truly that powerful, then how could they be threatened by me?

Danny did not know how to respond to Joel. He merely glanced at Jared instead.
However, before Jared could say anything. Flaxseed spoke up in a huff.
“We kept our auras hidden to mess with you. You blind fool! Do you really think you are powerful? You
seem mysterious, ringing that silly bronze bell and muttering away. If it weren't for me, you couldn't
have breached the barrier! How dare you threaten us! I think you're asking for a good beating, you old
tiling!” yelled Flaxseed.
Livid, Flaxseed immediately stepped forward and slapped Joel twice.
The two slaps landed squarely on Joel's face before he could even dodge them.
At that moment, the look on Joel's face was grim, but he dared not say a word.
Danny, on the other hand, had mixed feelings as he glanced at Joel, who was so frightened that he
could not even let out a peep.
If he had listened to me earlier and not forced Jared and liis party to stay and fight the tiger demon,
then he wouldn't be slapped now. All those disciples of Flaming Sect wouldn't have perished, too. But,
it's no use crying over spilled milk.
“Let's go, Mi*. Flaxseed,” said Jared.
He was worried that Flaxseed would kill Joel in haste.
