Chapter 2157 We Are Even


    With a deafening boom, the room was smashed into smithereens. The debris flying in the air was


    also blown away into the far distance by Jared''s aura.


    At that moment, Jared and the soul remnant were exposed in the wide-open courtyard.


    The huge explosion also attracted a lot of disciples from Luminous Sect.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    By then, Matthew had almost recoveredpletely. As he stared at Jared and the figure facing off


    in mid-air, a grim look spread across his face.


    “Mr. Campbell, this soul remnant has been hiding within your body. It''s the source of the years of


    torment that you''ve suffered through,” dered Jared as he pointed his sword at the figure.


    Fury raged in Matthew''s eyes as he red at the figure.


    He swung his arm, causing orbs of light to rise from the Luminous Sect. These orbs rose mid-air and


    formed a shapeless web that surrounded the figure.


    The figure finally revealed a hint of panic when Matthew did that. A solemn look appeared on its


    face.


    “zing Sun!” bellowed Matthew.


    The shapeless web was instantly engulfed in scorching mes before it began to shrink in the


    figure''s direction, blocking any path of escape that it might have.


    "How dare you injure me, Matthew? I''ll make you pay the price a hundred times over! Don''t forget


    this is only my soul remnant. Even if you destroy it, it won''t affect me much. However, I will ensure


    that Luminous Sect will be doomed beyond redemption...” threatened the figure in the face of the


    fire web, which kept shrinking in size.


    On the other hand, Matthew merely snorted coldly. The mes burned even more ferociously.


    “Argh!” The figure finally let out a shriek of pain.


    “Don''t kill it, Mr. Campbell!”


    When Jared saw that, he immediately rushed in front of Matthew to stop him.


    However, it was toote. The figure had already been reduced into ashes, leaving no traces behind.


    Jared could not help but sigh when he saw that the figure had disappeared.


    "Was there a reason you wanted to spare the soul remnant?” asked Matthew.


    “Mr. Campbell, the soul remnant managed to remain in your body for so many years. Even though it


    had been forced out, it was still so powerful. Evidently, the person in his original form must be


    highly skilled. More importantly, his original body won''t be too far


    from here! The soul remnant one leaves behind after one''s death is the weakest. There aren''t a lot


    of Demonic Cultivators that can create soul remnants alive. There are distance constraints when it


    comes to controlling these soul remnants, so it''s not like they can be controlled from any distance


    possible. Hence, I wanted to let the soul remnant escape so that we can track it and find where the


    original body of the Demonic Cultivator is,” exined Jared to Matthew.”


    That was the reason why Jared had not absorbed and refined the soul remnant earlier.


    Destroying a soul remnant would not harm the Demonic Cultivator’s original body significantly.


    However, now that the soul remnant had been eliminated, it would be much more difficult to find


    the actual Demonic Cultivator.


    At present, Luminous Sect was out in the open while the Demonic Cultivator remained hidden in the


    shadows. If thetter wanted to attack, Luminous Sect would not have time to defend itself.


    After hearing Jared''s exnation, Matthew also realized that he had acted too rashly earlier. Yet,


    now that things had reached this stage, there was no choice but to deal with the situation step by


    step.


    "Young man, since you''ve saved my life, I''m eternally grateful. Just tell me if you want anything. As


    long as it''s something that Luminous Sect has, I definitely won''t be petty with it. *


    Matthew thanked Jared.


    "You saved my life too, Mr. Campbell. We''re even now.” Jared smiled faintly.


    Matthew was stunned for a while before bursting intoughter. “We''re even. However, since you''ve


    alreadye to Luminous


    Sect, stay here for a few more days. Let me fulfill my duty as a host.”


    “Sure!” Jared nodded.


    Since Jared still nned to find out more information about the Spring of Regeneration from these


    hidden sects, he was more than happy to receive Matthew''s invitation to stay.


    Coincidentally, he wanted to ask Matthew about the sects and learn more about them.
