CHAPTER 2599 DISRESPECT AND BETRAYAL

Sigurd had reached the limits of his mental fortitude. Now, he was begging for Jared's mercy like a prisoner to his executioner. He would do anything to stop Jared from killing him.

“Tell me a reason for me to spare you,” Jared said, eager to hear Sigurd's answer.

The gears in Sigurd's head spun so quickly that they were about to catch fire. If he wanted Jared to spare his life, he would have to come up with information that was useful to Jared.

The only thing that would make Jared change his mind was resources. Resources were everything in the Ethereal Realm. After all, who wouldn't want enough resources to quickly improve their cultivation level?

“Jared, if you spare me, I'll find a way to get all of Emerald Cauldron Sect's resources and pills for you. With them, you'll surely achieve a breakthrough from Manifestor and reach the Breakthrough,” Sigurd cried out, knowing that offering resources was the only thing that would tempt Jared.

“You're just a disciple in the Emerald Cauldron Sect. Can you really get me all of their resources?”

Jared scoffed. He knew that Sigurd was only spitting nonsense in a desperate attempt to stay alive.

“But I'm not. I'm the seniormost disciple in the Emerald Cauldron Sect and the successor of the sect. If my master dies, I'll be the next lord of the Emerald Cauldron Sect. Once I'm the lord of the Emerald Cauldron Sect, the sect's resources will be all yours,” Sigurd quickly explained.

However, Jared was still sneering at him. “If I kill you and annihilate the Emerald Cauldron Sect now, your sect's resources will still be mine. Why would I need to wait until you become the lord of the sect? It'll be a waste of my time.”

At that, Sigurd parted his lips, about to retort Jared and say that it was impossible for Jared to wipe out the entire Emerald Cauldron Sect. But how could he possibly infuriate Jared more? Thus, in the

end, he swallowed those words.

Instead, he squeezed out, “My master is currently a cultivator of Third Level Body Fusion Realm. He...” Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Jared cut him off with a wave of his hand. “I can still kill a cultivator of Third Level Body Fusion Realm. Are you doubting my capability?”

“No, no, no! I wouldn't dare to. I've already witnessed how powerful you are, and I know that it won't be a challenge for you to take on a cultivator of Third Level Body Fusion Realm. However, two more senior members of the Emerald Cauldron Sect are on the same level as my master. Moreover, I heard that we have an elder who's in our sect's forbidden ground and has yet to make an appearance. Therefore, it won't be easy to annihilate the Emerald Cauldron Sect. Also, we have a medicinal pool. Anyone who enters the medicinal pool will be rejuvenated, and their strength will improve. However, only the lords of the sect know the way to open the path to the pool, and the medicinal pool is only opened once every three years. We also have a medicinal treasury. I heard that ancient pills are kept there, and even my master had only seen some of them.”

Sigurd was telling the various resources that Emerald Cauldron Sect had to make Jared change his mind.

“Why would you tell me about these? I don't want to wait until you're the lord of the sect.”

Jared scoffed, knowing that Sigurd was only saying those words to save himself.

“No, no, there's no need for you to wait until I'm the lord of the sect. I can take you to the Emerald Cauldron Sect now. With how mighty you are, my master will surely value you and want you to join our ranks. Then, you'll be able to enter the medicinal pool with us when it opens. As for the medicinal treasury, once you're in Emerald Cauldron Sect, we'll both work together to find a way to

end my master's life in an accident before going after the two other elders in the sect. After that, I'll be the lord of the sect, and the Emerald Cauldron Sect will also be yours.”

To save himself, Sigurd was willing to utter words of disrespect and betrayal.

Jared stared at Sigurd in slight shock. He never thought that assertive Sigurd would agree to do anything in his desperation.

But he had to admit that Sigurd's words were tempting.
