CHAPTER 2886 HUMILIATION
“Viola, watch out. People are coming,” Jared warned Viola.
Hearing that, Viola paled and became tense.
“Don't worry. They're not that powerful.”
With that, Jared quickly slid his finger across the ground, making an arcane array appear.
Jared's group was then covered by the arcane array.
In the blink of an eye, four Body Fusion Realm cultivators appeared. While one of them was a Fifth Level cultivator, the others were only Third Level.
Even without the arcane array, Jared would be able to deal with them all by himself.
Nevertheless, Jared had just engaged in a battle with the demon beast and had lost much of his spiritual energy. He needed time to recover. With the protection of the arcane array, he would be able to buy himself some time.
When the cultivators saw Jared and Viola, they smirked. However, when their gazes landed on Vasily, they were visibly taken aback.
“That's a huge ice soul fragment!”
“We've hit the jackpot! We did it!”
“D*mn, how did these weak cultivators get such a huge ice soul fragment?”
The four cultivators were clearly stunned.
“Who cares? It's now ours!”
Right as those words left the mouth of the Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator, he darted toward the ice soul fragment.
The cultivator moved at the speed of light.
Nonetheless, just as that cultivator came close to Jared's group, a screen of light burst out of the ground, and he slammed right into it.
The immense rebound sent the Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator flying backward.
When he saw the glowing arcane array around Jared's group, he snarled and ground out, “D*mn it, they have the protection of an arcane array! No wonder they're not panicking at the sight of us.”
“What do we do now?” another cultivator asked.
They were not array masters, and they could not dispel arcane arrays.
“Let's try to break it by force.”
With that, the Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator unsheathed a machete and slashed at the arcane array.
At that, the other cultivators quickly dashed forward with their weapons.
However, the arcane array remained unmarred even after a while of their hacking. In contrast, their weapons broke from the impact.
Soon, the cultivators were panting from exhaustion and looking at the ice soul fragment within the arcane array helplessly.
Viola, who was initially worried, finally relaxed at that, a smile appearing on her lips.
In the meantime, Jared watched the cultivators with interest and amusement. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
When the Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator saw the mocking look in Jared's eyes, he fumed. He cursed, “You brat, I dare you to step out of this arcane array! I'm going to slap you into oblivion. Be a good boy and hand over the ice soul fragment. We'll leave immediately if you do that. Otherwise, we'll stay here forever. I refuse to believe you can stay in there for the rest of your lives!”
However, no matter what kind of threats the cultivator came up with, Jared remained unfazed.
In the end, the cultivator grew tired and stopped talking.
When they realized that threats and insults could not make Jared leave the arcane array, another cultivator came up with an idea.
“That girly inside is quite pretty. Why don't we show her just how manly we are?”
As the cultivator said that, he began taking off his pants.
The others were quick to figure out what was going on, and they followed suit. They were planning to humiliate Viola to get Jared and Vasily to impulsively leave the arcane array.
They could not possibly wait for Jared's group to come out of the array for an eternity. If other cultivators came, they would end up having to fight for the ice soul fragment.
“You shameless perverts!”
Viola turned red in the face and hastily spun around.
