Chapter 539 Extremely Annoying
The moment theke recovered its calm, a wave suddenly curled up. Like an arrow, it flew in Fabian’s
direction, seeming to split theke in half.
When he saw the attack, Fabian jumped into the air. The boat beneath his legs was instantaneously
shattered into pieces.
Even though he had evaded the attack, the same couldn’t be said of the subordinates behind him. After
they were thrown overboard by therge wave, their limbs were severed from their bodies, as if they
had gone through a grinder.
The moment the poisonous creatures smelled blood, they swarmed the bodies that fell into theke
and devoured them.
As for the remaining members of the Crescent Sect, they fled to the shore after witnessing the
gruesome sight.
“You truly are something. No wonder the four elders have betrayed me,” Fabian sneered in mid-air as
his body graduallynded on the surface of the water, where he stood still.
If Liam hadn’t informed Jared of the stone columns in the water, Jared would’ve assumed that Fabian
was so powerful that he could actually walk on water.
As Jared’s body descended at the same time, hended on a piece of floating wood. Even though he
was capable of standing on water, it would consume a significant amount of spiritual energy just to
sustain himself. Now that theke was littered with pieces of broken wood, Jared could save a lot of
energy by using them as support.
Giving Fabian a look of disdain, Jared dered, “I’m surprised you’re unashamed of using others of
betrayal after doing the same. You’re nothing but a joke.”
Fabian was briefly shaken before he broke into a wide smirk. “I didn’t expect you to have met Dante.
Nheless, you shouldn’t believe everything he says. After all, he is an equally crafty man. Do you
really think that he founded the Crescent Sect for a noble purpose? He’s just relying on his ability to
read someone’s face to go around cheating others! Considering how young and powerful you are, why
don’t you join me? I can definitely elevate your strength to the next level. It’s certainly more attractive
than helping Dante. After all, he is just using you.”
“Are you saying that you won’t hold me ountable for killing the Crescent Sect’s men?” Jared asked
mischievously.

“Haha, the men you killed are nothing but pawns within the organization, no different from the parasites
I raise. Since you have killed them, so be it. Given that you were able to expel my parasites, it means
that you possess a good understanding of them. As long as you coborate with me, I can rmend
you to the Poison King of Mapleton so that he can teach you techniques that use poison. How about
that?”
Fabian burst intoughter as he continued to offer Jared an olive branch.
The power that Jared had demonstrated was enough to entice Fabian into recruiting him.
“Do you know the people of Mapleton?” Jared asked curiously.
“More than that, for the Poison King is my godfather. The reason I disfigured myself and joined
Crescent Sect was just to secure its resources. Soon, the Crescent Sect will be controlled by
Mapleton!” Fabian gloated.
“Looks like if I kill you, there will be bad blood between Mapleton and me. This is a f*cking pain.” Jared
sighed as he furrowed his brows.
Given how busy he was, he had not managed to find time to continue his training despite the
impending arrival of the fifteenth of July. Even though he had achieved Foundation Phase, he still
wasn’t confident enough, especially after Dante told him that he would be faced with a cmity on that
fateful day. Consequently, Jared wanted to strengthen himself to face whatever that wasing.
“What did you say?” Fabian’s expression turned grim. “You actually think you can kill me? This is
nothing but a joke.”
Just as he spoke, Fabian tapped his foot on the water and leaped into the air again. Throwing his
palms out, he caused theke to boil and unleashed another giant wave in Jared’s direction.
