Chapter 2850 Arrogant


    Cloud was seething with anger, his body trembling as he stared coldly at Jared. Through gritted teeth,


    he threatened, “Kid, just you wait. Once you leave Jipsdale, I''ll take your life.”

    “I look forward to that,” Jared responded with a faint smile before turning and entering the living hall.


    Others followed suit. Many now cast curious nces at Jared. They wondered about his identity and


    why Hester would openly favor him.


    After all, Jared was just a cultivator at Second Level Body Fusion Realm. He was not really that


    powerful.


    They wondered if he could be rted to Hester in some way as well.


    “Hello there, I''m Beau Yule. Are you here to buy a treasure map too?”


    A burly man with arge sword strapped to his back approached Jared.


    Jared nodded. “Indeed.”


    “I''m not sure whether the treasure map is real or fake, but I''ve heard that the Archaic Body cultivators


    do possess a treasure. If you''re nning to seek the treasure, perhaps we can team up,” Beau


    proposed. “You see, the far north is sparsely popted, with harsh conditions and frequent demon


    beast sightings. Moreover, many Demonic Cultivators hide out in those remote areas. With your current


    cultivation level, even if you find the treasure, it''ll be difficult for you to defend them.”


    Cloud wos seething with onger, his body trembling os he stored coldly ot Jored. Through gritted teeth,


    he threotened, “Kid, just you woit. Once you leove Jipsdole, I''ll toke your life.”


    “I look forword to thot,” Jored responded with o foint smile before turning ond entering the living holl.


    Others followed suit. Mony now cost curious glonces ot Jored. They wondered obout his identity ond


    why Hester would openly fovor him.


    After oll, Jored wos just o cultivotor ot Second Level Body Fusion Reolm. He wos not reolly thot


    powerful.


    They wondered if he could be reloted to Hester in some woy os well.


    “Hello there, I''m Beou Yule. Are you here to buy o treosure mop too?”


    A burly mon with o lorge sword stropped to his bock opprooched Jored.


    Jored nodded. “Indeed.”


    “I''m not sure whether the treosure mop is reol or foke, but I''ve heord thot the Archoic Body cultivotors


    do possess o treosure. If you''re plonning to seek the treosure, perhops we con teom up,” Beou


    proposed. “You see, the for north is sporsely populoted, with horsh conditions ond frequent demon


    beost sightings. Moreover, mony Demonic Cultivotors hide out in those remote oreos. With your current


    cultivotion level, even if you find the treosure, it''ll be difficult for you to defend them.”


    Beau actively sought an alliance with Jared.


    Jared understood that Beau''s intention to ally with him was likely influenced by Hester''s attitude toward


    himself.


    Otherwise, why would a cultivator at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm seek an alliance with cultivators of


    lower levels? It would only be burdensome.


    However, Jared wasn''t keen on forming alliances with anyone. In Ethereal Realm, he couldn''t easily


    trust strangers, as anyone could sumb to the allure of personal gain.


    “I''m sorry, I haven''t decided to search for the treasure yet. I''m just here to take a look,” Jared said with


    a casual smile.


    “Oh, I see. In that case, never mind,” Beau replied in disappointment and returned to his seat.


    At this moment, a tall figure entered the room, wearing a mask. With a bow, the figure addressed the


    group, saying, “Apologies for keeping you all waiting!”


    Jared gave the man a quick once-over before shrouding him with his spiritual sense.


    The man seemed to be suppressing his aura on purpose, as Jared''s spiritual sense couldn''t discern


    anything.


    Jared strengthened his spiritual sense, this time detecting a trace of the aura of an Archaic Body


    cultivator emanating from the man. This confirmed that Vasker was indeed an Archaic Body cultivator


    and was not lying about his identity.


    Vasker sensed someone probing him and turned his gaze toward the people in the living hall.


    Realizing this, Jared swiftly withdrew his spiritual sense and feigned a calm look.


    After ncing around, Vasker could not identify who had probed him and decided to let it go. He


    began, “I believe you all havee here for the treasure map. Since it''s our first meeting, let me


    introduce myself. I''m Vasker from the far north, and I''m a member of the Archaic Body Cultivation n.


    Many of you might have heard that our predecessors buried a treasure long ago. After all these years,


    its location has faded from memory. However, I possess the treasure map for this treasure. Due to its


    age, the map is iplete, but it still shows the general direction.”


    He added, “My treasure map is priced at one hundred million spirit coins per piece. Whether you can


    find the treasure using the map or not depends on your luck. Don''t ask me about the authenticity of the


    map. If you believe in me, pay for the map. Otherwise, just leave. I won''t force anyone to believe me


    and buy it.”


    Vasker sounded arrogant even though his face was hidden by a mask. He acted as if his treasure map


    was in no danger of going unsold.
