A Man Like None Other novel Chapter 1557

Chapter 1557 Pressure

It turned out that none of the inhabitants of Encanta Island were natives. They all came to this island at some point in their lives. Many were not aware that they were cultivators. The only reason they came to the island was to prolong their lifespan.

When one decided to become an inhabitant of the island, one would be given a scripture-like text to recite and practice. On top of that, one must worship during the specified time.

Soon, people discovered that reciting the scripture had enabled them to live over a hundred years old. This amazing finding eventually spread by word of mouth.

With that, Encanta Island went from having an initial population of several dozen to several tens of thousands. The people who were here came from all walks of life.

“Before I first came here, I suffered from many illnesses. But I’m all cured now! You should stay. This place is paradise,” advised the old man. With a smile, Flaxseed replied, “You’re right. I’ll think about it…”

As he excused himself from the elder, an even more pressing question arose in his heart. Who on earth could manipulate events behind the scene to make so many ordinary people go into spiritual energy cultivation?

“Hmm… This is huge. I’d better wait till Jared finishes his cultivation…” mumbled Flaxseed to himself. He dared not continue with his investigation. Therefore, he found a place to stay put for the time being until Jared was back.

Time flew by quickly, and three months passed just like that.

Jared had been cultivating for the past three months. Since the people from the palace of Encanta Island did not come looking for trouble with him, everything was calm and peaceful.

However, in the Jadeborough martial arts world thousands of kilometers away, the black-robed man struck once more, killing people and absorbing their powers.

Everyone was scared out of their wits. Some even speculated that Jared had secretly come back!

“D*mn Edgar! He doesn’t have an inch of restraint. I won’t be able to cover up for him if he keeps this up…”

In the hall of the Warriors Alliance, Zion paced back and forth angrily.
