Aelnod only dared to stop after running for a long time. Upon confirming that Jared did not chase after him, he let out a long sigh of relief.
“F*ck, he's really a freak. He's only at Wandering Immortal Realm Level Four, and yet, he's got me, who's at Wandering Immortal Realm Level Eight, completely cornered!” Aelnod cursed out loud.
In truth, he was oblivious to the fact that Jared was merely using him for practice. Had Jared struck with his full strength, he would've been dead long ago with no chance to escape.
“The person who spread the news is a jerk. They're clearly out to screw us over!”
As a matter of fact, Aelnod had been fooled. Earlier on, he hadn't paid Jared any mind because he saw that the latter was merely at Wandering Immortal Realm Level Four.
In retrospect, he finally understood one thing—the fact that Jared managed to obtain magical items from the ancient ruins indicated that Jared's abilities or background were far from ordinary. Otherwise, someone like Jared, who was only at Wandering Immortal Realm Level Four, would never have been able to acquire magical items from the ancient ruins.
Realizing he had been tricked, Aelnod left in disappointment.
Although he felt a deep sense of resentment within, he knew it was a scheme. If he didn't want to be caught up in it, his safest bet was to keep his distance.
Jared took Aelnod's item pouch, but instead of keeping it for himself, he gave it to Douglas.
“Mr. Murray, use the resources in this item pouch to rebuild the Murray residence,” Jared said.
The Murray family had many of their houses reduced to rubble from the battle.
“Jared, why are you still being so courteous with me? We're all family here!” Douglas didn't take it.
Jared stuffed the item pouch into Douglas' hands, saying, “Almost everyone on level three knows that I possess magical items from the ancient ruins now, and I'm sure there'll be a fair number of people targeting me. That's why I can't stay here any longer. Otherwise, I'll bring disaster to your family. I plan to bring Jemina along, and I'll have her visit you once I sort out this matter.”
“Okay. Be careful. Given our current situation, it's indeed not suitable for you to stay here any longer!” Douglas nodded.
“Father...” Jemina looked at Douglas, her eyes filled with reluctance.
Upon hearing that, Jared furrowed his brows. Why is it that no matter where I go, there are always people who recognize me? It's clear that I'm being targeted!
