Chapter 1230 In The Same Boat
In truth, the patriarchs of the prestigious families sensed that the auras of the men in black were somewhat
different the moment they stepped into the meeting room.
“Yes, they’re indeed Demonic Cultivators!”
Zion nodded and admitted to it frankly.
At once, sheer terror struck Ryker and the other patriarchs. Their expressions changed drastically.
None of them expected the man to readily admit that the men were Demonic Cultivators without hiding anything
from them.
“What’s the meaning of this, President Zeigler? Don’t you know the consequences of conspiring with Demonic
Cultivators? If the authorities were to learn about it, we’d all be doomed,” Ryker asserted gravely.
In response, Zion snorted. “Do you think we’ll be safe if the authorities don’t know about it? Let me tell you this—
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthere’ll presently be a revamp in the martial arts world in the whole of Jadeborough. In no time, many martial arts
families will blink out of existence! Then, the Demonic Cultivators and elite fighters who had been hiding in the dark
will slowly surface. Don’t be so naive as to think that all the Demonic Cultivators have been wiped out. Actually,
they’re all hiding in the dark, even around you and me. The reason Mr. Sanders is allowing Jared so much freedom
right now is mainly that he wants the man to muddle up the martial arts world. Subsequently, the authorities will
lock us all up on some trumped-up charges! Therefore, we can only make a move first and have these Demonic
Cultivators kill Jared. Mr. Sanders won’t suspect us anyway.”
His words had the few patriarchs plunging into deep contemplation.
“Then, was it also you who sent the leader of Malison Sect, Quintus, out to kill Jared?”
Ryker recalled Quintus, who made a dramatic entrance and wanted to take Jared out.
The Demonic Cultivators had all been hidden in the dark and had no grudge against Jared. Yet, they suddenly made
an appearance in public and even wanted to kill the man. Hence, someone must have ordered them to do so!
In response, Zion nodded. “Yes, it was me! Unfortunately, his capabilities were too dismal that he was killed
instead.”
The few patriarchs eyed him skeptically, not quite understanding why he could order the Demonic Cultivators
around.
“What exactly is your identity, President Zeigler? Why are the Demonic Cultivators obeying you?”
Ryker gave voice to the question lingering within him.
“You don’t need to ask such questions anymore. All you need to remember is that we’re in the same boat, and no
one can escape. Since I’ve chosen to tell you all this, I’m not afraid you’ll run your mouth. Do you understand me?”
After Zion had said that, a terrifying aura abruptly burst forth from behind him, enveloping the entire meeting
room.
The eyes of Ryker and the other patriarchs widened, and terror showed on their faces the instant they sensed that
aura.
They had never sensed such a powerful aura.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn top of that, Ryker and the others were all Martial Arts Marquis, so one could only imagine the rank of someone
whose aura could strike such terror in them.
In a heartbeat, the aura was withdrawn. It was as though it was never there.
The patriarchs stared at Zion with conflicted expressions on their faces.
They knew that such a terrifying aura definitely didn’t come from the man.
In other words, there was someone even more powerful behind him.
“Don’t worry, President Zeigler! We know what to say and what not to say!” Ryker swore as he snapped back to his
senses.
At that, Zion chuckled. “Great! I believe you all understand my kind intentions! The meeting today is adjourned.
Please see yourselves out.”
As soon as the man had finished speaking, Ryker and the others stood up and took their leave.
When they had left, an eerie voice rang out behind Zion. “Sure enough, that girl’s blood is something else. I can
already sense the changes within me.”
“I can also sense that my powers will come to completion soon. At that time, we’ll be revered in the martial arts
world in the whole of Jadeborough and even Chanaea itself!”
Zion’s eyes radiated greed and hunger.
