Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 113

After hearing that, the tension between Alan and Jeremy eased a bit.

They all turned to look at Sancho.

Sancho was running over with all his might, looking miserable.

"What's going on?"

The five men were all surprised.

They knew well about Sancho's strength. He was very strong among people at the Semi-Divinity Phase.

Especially after he inherited his teacher's cultivation technique. He became stronger after he started maintaining his saber.

None of the five men could be confident enough to say they could beat Sancho up. They would be considered lucky to tie him.

"Did he offend a mercenary group here? Or a warlord?" said the middle-aged man with a brush cut. His name was Leo.

In the Triangle Region, apart from the commander at the Divinity Phase, only the small warlords and the top mercenary companies could threaten them. After all, these warlords and mercenary companies were fully armed and equipped with enormous weapons.

Even so, if one had reached the Semi-Divinity Phase, he could easily run away if he was not surrounded by the army and bombarded with all sorts of weapons. There were no sophisticated tracking weapons or jet fighters in the Triangle Region. So, Sancho should not look this miserable.

They could also feel that Sancho was extremely tired, as if he got injured and exhausted his Zhen Qi.

"Sancho, why are you acting like a stray dog?"

Jeremy said mockingly.

The man with long hair was James. He sneered after Jeremy, "I heard that you took a detour to clean up the mess. Oh, avenge Miyamoto and shake off the humiliation? Why do you look beaten up? You also lost?"

Alan also looked at Sancho with a cold smile. He did not have a good impression of Japanese. Sancho even went to take revenge in China, which annoyed Alan more.

As a descendent of a secluded family, Alan never spent too much time on those normal Virtuosos outside his family. However, Jacob was ranked third on the Heavenly Pavilion's Virtuoso Rankings. This attracted Alan's attention.

After all, Jacob was very young.

Alan knew that Rogelio and Timothy, who were respectively ranked first and second, were both at the Semi-Divinity Phase. Although the Heavenly Pavilion did not show Jacob's phase, Alan guessed he must be around the Semi-Divinity Phase, too.

Alan appreciated people like Jacob. They were from the secluded families, yet they cultivated to such a high phase on their own in the outside world. Therefore, Alan had planned to get to know Jacob after this trip to the spirit spring. Getting Jacob under his wing and making him the backbone of his power would help Alan much in the competition for the patriarch.

Now Alan just hoped Jacob was not killed by Sancho.

Just as Alan was thinking about it, Sancho rushed into the tavern and stood in front of them.

"Everyone, please help me kill someone. After he dies, I'll give up going into the spirit spring. I'll give my days to you!"

Sancho said in a hurry.

The other two men also wanted to laugh at Sancho. But they were stunned now.

Then they became ecstatic.

Even Alan put away his hostility towards Sancho and looked at him with his eyes glinting.

Everyone knew it.

The spirit spring in the Triangle Region was under the control of six parties.

The secluded families, the Triangle Region, Japan, and the other three countries to which Jeremy and the others belonged.

To ensure the sustainability of the spirit spring, they reached an agreement to prevent it from drying up.

Therefore, every six months, they would send a representative to open the spirit spring together.

Then the six people from the six forces could cultivate in it for seven days.

Seven days later, they would close the spirit spring for it to restore the energy. They would open it again after another six months.

In this way, the energy in the spirit spring would never dry up!

This meant everyone could only absorb and refine a certain amount of spirit spring every time they came to cultivate.

If Sancho gave up, then each of them could get more spring water, which almost equaled to the amount of a day and a half.

They could not resist the temptation.

"Who do you want to kill? You don't need five of us. I can do this alone. And you don't need to give me seven days. We can split it up." When Jeremy heard this, he was the first to realize what was going on.
