Chapter 1646 Being A Bully
With entertainment amenities everywhere in sight, the Crescent Sect had become a larger tourism establishment
than it used to be a year ago.
After instructing the driver to wait, Jared led Flaxseed in. Then, he released his spiritual sense upon entering the
Crescent Sect in search of evidence. Unfortunately, he did not find anything useful despite the distance covered.
Only several Grandmaster-ranked martial artists were among the patrons. As they walked, the pair gradually found
themselves alone. The temperature also began to plummet.
“What are you two doing? You may not go beyond this point, as danger lies ahead.” Suddenly, two men in security
uniforms appeared from either side to block Jared and Flaxseed in their path.
It was plain from a glance that they were both security guards of the resort. However, Jared noticed something
unusual about them. Why would a resort hire Grandmasters as security guards?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJared had ascertained their strength from the moment they appeared. On the other hand, the pair knew nothing
about Jared and Flaxseed.
Due to the vast difference in their cultivation levels, they could not detect Jared’s and Flaxseed’s auras and, as a
result, assumed they were ordinary tourists.
“Pardon us. We must have gotten lost from wandering.” Jared smiled before grabbing Flaxseed and heading back
the way they came.
The guards also turned and left when Jared did.
“Are we just going to leave? There must be something strange going on in there,” Flaxseed said to Jared.
“I know that, but we cannot alarm them. The guards are obviously not employees of the resort.”
As Jared spoke, he gazed at a tall mountain nearby and, with a leap, arrived halfway up.
Being a Greater Martial Arts Marquis, scaling the precipice was as easy as walking on level ground for Jared.
“D*mn it, quit bullying me for being less skilled than you!” Flaxseed cursed as he squinted up at Jared.
Then, he produced two charms and traced the air with his finger. As one, the charms rose and brought Flaxseed
with them.
It was in this manner that the two of them ascended the mountain and circumvented the guards below.
Jared’s spiritual sense soon detected a strange energy as he and Flaxseed ventured deeper.
“There are experts here!”
Frowning, Jared quickly retracted his spiritual sense lest it drew attention.
“Many are hiding here, it seems.” Flaxseed sensed it too.
“We’ll sneak over slowly.”
With Flaxseed in the lead, Jared and he made their way forward slowly while doing their best to remain unseen.
Soon, a series of buildings came into view, with guards patrolling everywhere they looked. It appeared they were in
a sect camp.
“What the f*ck, I can’t believe it’s occupied again within just a year!”

However, many sects would undoubtedly vie for such a strategic site. It would have been unusual for it to remain
vacant for long.
At that moment, within the Crescent Sect, Augustus, the sect leader of the Gutwrencher Sect, was anxiously
awaiting something.
Not long after, three figures clad in black robes with a copper-colored insignia upon their chest materialized.
Augustus hastened forward to greet them.
“Greetings, sirs!” he exclaimed, falling to his knees before the Black Copper Robe members.
“Please rise. How goes the mission assigned to you?” one of them asked.
“It is complete. We are simply waiting for your inspection of the ancient ruins,” Augustus reported at once.
The Black Copper Robe warriors nodded with satisfaction.
As it turned out, Jared had taken away the map to the ancient ruins of Skywrath Sect. After realizing he had been
tricked, Skylar hurriedly dispatched his men to gain a head start investigating the ancient ruins.
It was common practice for the Warriors Alliance to plant sects at important ancient ruins. Thus, the Gutwrencher
Sect had been preemptively dispatched to occupy the spot.
