Chapter 2451 Most Terrifying


    Upon witnessing that, Jared couldn''t stand by and watch any longer. He ignored Hammerhead''s


    warning and shot a golden light toward the demon beast with a flick of his right finger.


    The demon beast roared after getting hit by the golden light and copsed to the ground, dead.


    With his current power, Jared was strong enough to kill that level of demon beast with just a wave of his


    hand.


    Seeing that the beast was dead, the young woman crawled to her feet with a baffled and frightened


    look.


    Momentster, she timidly faced Jared. “T-Thank you.”


    Suddenly, everyone heard furious roarsing from the distance while the ground shook.


    “This is bad!” Hammerhead knitted his eyebrows. “Arge group of demon beasts is heading toward


    us. We must leave post-haste!”


    “You should escape quickly, miss. Many demon beasts are charging here,” reminded Jared as he


    prepared to depart with Hammerhead.


    However, the young woman snapped her sight toward the dead demon beast before lifting it onto her


    back.


    Gritting her teeth, she trudged forward one step at a time, that feat visibly straining her.


    Jared was perplexed to see that. Why is she carrying the demon beast''s corpse instead of escaping?


    “You should ditch the body and flee, miss! Otherwise, the iing demon beasts will catch up to you!”


    he shouted.


    That didn''t dissuade her from continuing her efforts as sweat and blood drenched her body.


    Seeing that the horde of demon beasts was about to arrive, Jared couldn''t bear to watch the young


    woman be eaten alive. Hence, he grabbed her and leaped hundreds of meters away in an instant.

    After they were beyond ten kilometers away from the horde, Jared ceased his movements. Meanwhile,


    Hammerhead peered at Jared with disapproval.


    xseed approached the young woman and reprimanded, “Why did you risk your life for this demon


    beast corpse, youngdy?”


    As she stared at his scowl, she bit her lip. An aggrieved look swirled in her eyes before she abruptly


    burst into tears.


    xseed was startled and was at a loss for what to do.


    “I wanted this demon beast corpse because I could exchange it for spirit coins and treat my grandma.


    My grandmother''s sick. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have tried to hunt a demon beast alone,” the young


    woman uttered through her sobs.


    “Stop crying, miss. We''ll send you back home. Where is it located?” Jared offered. He couldn''t help it


    after he heard her sob story.


    “My home is in Rock Vige, which isn''t too far from here!” The young woman pointed to the west.


    “All right, we''ll escort you there right away,” said Jared before ncing at xseed. “You carry the


    demon beast''s corpse.”


    “Why me?” xseed was taken aback.


    “You made her cry, so you have to carry it for her.” Jared grinned.


    Rolling his eyes, xseed lifted the demon beast corpse effortlessly.


    Jared turned to Hammerhead. “Let''s send this youngdy home first, Master Hammerhead. Then, we''ll


    head to Greenoxen Peak.”


    In response, Hammerhead sighed. “I''m not stopping you because I''m a heartless man. The reason is


    that you know too little of the affairs in the Ethereal Realm. Do you know what the most terrifying thing


    is in the Ethereal Realm? It''s neither the demons nor the monsters. What''s most fearsome is the


    human heart. Most humans aren''t killed by demons or monsters. Instead, they often meet their end at


    the hands of the people closest to them. Know that there''s nothing people here won''t betray for the


    sake of absolute benefit. Humans here are far, far scarier than demons or monsters.”


    “You''re exaggerating, Master Hammerhead. Some people may be evil, but I still believe the good ones


    are the majority. We''ll send this youngdy back home first.” Jared then asked the young woman to


    lead them to Rock Vige.
