The Legendary Man novel Chapter 1265

Chapter 1265-“The surname is Whitley?”

Upon hearing this, Hayden could not help but exclaim in surprise.

“I knew that Joshua…”

As Hayden was speaking, he was abruptly silenced by an unseen force. Looking up, he saw Neil across from him, his gaze as cold as ice, seemingly ready to strike at any moment.

“You’re out of line. Should you dare to spout nonsense again, I’ll kill you now.”

The initially cheerful Neil seemed like a completely different person at this very moment, his whole body exuding an aura of murderous intent.

This sudden change truly gave Hayden quite a scare.

Seeing that Hayden and the others had fallen silent, Neil lightly tapped his foot, and the shattered parts on the square platform surprisingly restored themselves after a moment of shaking and blurring.

Then, a series of flickering formation markings continuously lit up on the ground, gradually converging into a massive arcane array.

“These individuals have emerged victorious in this competition by securing the seals. For the remaining two outlanders, the rules of survival remain unchanged. As for the rest, if you wish to become envoys of Yannopolis, proceed with the previous rules. I will return in a day to collect those who succeed. This time, we only need fifty people!”

As Neil’s words fell, a flash of white light appeared before Jonathan and the others, then vanished at the summit of Ascension Peak.

On top of the towering mountain, a radiant white array of light was in full effect.

Several figures appeared. It was Jonathan and his group.

Over the past few days, Jonathan had been using the portal formation a bit too frequently. By now, he had thoroughly adapted to the discomfort of spatial transformation.

Even while teleporting, Jonathan still had the leisure to observe the formation markings of the portal formation under his feet.

“Outside the teleportation circle, there’s a trap formation, a killing formation, and an illusion formation layered above each other. You sure are careful,” Jonathan remarked with a chuckle while cross-referencing the formations in the ancient books.

He gazed around and looked slightly surprised as he saw beyond the extending peaks.

“I thought you were going to send us back to the dungeon,” he commented, chuckling lightly.

“I’ve told you. I have a friend who is interested in you,” Neil said lightly. Immediately after, he waved his hand, using his spiritual energy to guide Merilyn and Stellario forward.

Seboxia had already returned to Jonathan’s body. He, Hayden, and Kathleen started down the mountain following Neil’s footsteps.

Along the way, they passed by innumerable formations.

Is this even a mountain anymore? This is clearly hell!

Even with Neil leading the way, the three people behind him trod carefully, fearing that one wrong step could lead them into an irretrievable disaster.

“Mr. Goldstein, when he mentioned someone surnamed Whitley, do you think he was referring to Joshua?” Hayden carefully asked as he trailed behind Jonathan.

“I think so,” the latter replied while staring at Neil’s back.

“Only this can we explain why they showed us mercy. But what I can’t figure out is why Joshua spared Stellario. Logically speaking, he should want to kill Stellario.”

Jonathan and Hayden felt completely relieved upon hearing Neil mention that he had a friend with the surname Whitley.

The possibility of the person behind this not being Joshua was simply too low, given that they could still hear this surname across two worlds, and that person had Neil spare Jonathan and the others.

Compared to the relief of the two, Kathleen, who was following behind, felt much more grim.

Unlike the others before her, she earned her qualifications through her own merit in the arena.

For her, it would be better to fall into the hands of the aboriginal cultivators than to confront Joshua.

After all, if Neil, who set the competition rules, did so out of personal will, then his decision to keep her must serve a purpose.

Even if he coveted her beauty, it was still a form of value.
