The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4370

Even if Skylar and the others passed overhead, they wouldn't detect any trace of them.

Once they were in the room, Jared explained the situation in full detail to everyone.

When Scarlette heard that Judith had fled to a desolate island to escape pursuit by the Demon Seal Alliance's Demonic Cultivators and that her face had been disfigured, she was furious.

Hearing how Judith had almost died made them all the more anxious.

“Those hypocrites in the Demon Seal Alliance! Quinlan Town's rise to power is only because someone is guarding it. No nearby factions dare to cross them now,” Lazlo growled, grinding his teeth, practically wanting to tear the Demon Seal Alliance to pieces.

“Mr. Lazlo, who exactly is guarding Quinlan Town? Back when the Ten Thousand Sword Sect was around, Quinlan Town wouldn't have dared to target Castenada Town even with ten times the courage!” Judith asked.

“It seems to be someone named Skylar Norton, also a Demonic Cultivator at the Ultimate Realm stage, who can control fire. I heard that recently, one sect had a minor conflict with Quinlan Town. This Skylar wiped out over a hundred of them single-handedly. It was a complete massacre. Absolutely terrifying.” Lazlo's breath quickened as he spoke about it.

“Skylar?”

Jared's brow furrowed instinctively at the name. He hadn't expected Skylar to be thriving in the eastern region, now even commanding his own forces.

Still, Skylar's strength certainly warranted respect in the eastern region, though in other regions he might not be as impressive.

“Why, Mr. Chance, do you know him?” Lazlo asked, noticing Jared's reaction.

Jared nodded. “Yes, he's the one leading the hunt against us.”

Lazlo's face immediately darkened.

“Then we'd better hurry back to Castenada Town. I fear that if we delay, Castenada Town could be in serious trouble.”

Lazlo worried that Skylar might make a move with the people of Quinlan Town.

“Burden or not, you're heading into real danger. Since you're determined to go, at least take this with you. You know swordsmanship, and you're quite good at it. This Ten Thousand Sword Sect secret scroll contains some advanced sword techniques—see how much you can grasp from it.”

Judith handed over the Ten Thousand Sword Sect's secret scroll to Jared without hesitation.

“Um...”

Jared took the secret scroll, feeling somewhat awkward. He wasn't a disciple of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, after all; taking their secret scroll felt improper.

“It's not yours to keep. You're borrowing it. Once we revive the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, we'll need it back,” Judith replied, understanding Jared's hesitation.

Hearing this, Jared was finally at ease and stowed the secret scroll. After a few brief instructions, he took his leave.

Cloud and the others rushed back toward Castenada Town without delay.
