Chapter 152
Jack initially thought he had a chance to directly kill Amber since he was injured.
After all, Jack’s reputation was directly overwhelmed by Amber at the battle arena.
Hence, it was impossible for Jack not to harbor any resentment toward Anderson.
Jack also wanted to compete with Amber in this competition to clear his shame.
of course, it would be best if he could just kill Anderson.
Then, it would greatly benefit the development of his family.
However, when Jack saw Amber’s smile, he suddenly shivered.
He involuntarily recalled how Amber smashed Ralph’s head with just a punch before the competition started.
In a split second, the courage that Jack built up disappeared.
Suddenly, a thunderous noise came from the end of the first route, and a figure walked out.
Seeing the person, Jack’s he art immediately sank, and he uttered through gritted teeth with great difficulty, “Bowen Pullman.”
The man who rarely made a public appearance in Evergreen Town, yet also the person who was most talked about in Evergreen Town.
For Jack, the severely injured Amber was more than a headache for him, and now there was the unscathed Bowen.
At that moment, his heart swiftly sank into a deep pit.
However, Jack was soon surprised by the next scene.
Bowen did not even spare him a glance.
He directly looked at Amber as he frowned and asked, “Who hurt you so badly?”
Jack’s eyes immediately widened.
From Bowen’s tone, it appeared as if they were both once close.
When did they meet? Did they have a relationship? If they allied…
Without needing to look into a mirror, Jack knew that his face was surely ashen.
Amber shrugged.
“I had a minor problem just now, but it’s all settled.
What’s wrong? Did you change your mind seeing that I’m injured?”
“I’m not a fool!” Bowen hurriedly waved his hands, “The both of you go ahead.
I’ll take my leave first.
Sigh.
Why am I such an unlucky person? I’ve tried my best to slow down, yet I still bumped into you.”
After saying that, Bowen walked toward the first route that he came as Bowen watched, stupefied.
Then, Bowen went back.
“What… What’s going on?” Jack stuttered.
He could not believe what he saw.
Bowen went back? Did he give up completely?
On the other hand, Amber was also somewhat surprised.
Initially, he thought Bowen’s words at the beginning of the competition were just to paralyze him.
However, it seemed that Bowen did not have the intention to compete with him?
Such an opportunity was really rare.
Although they just met, Amber instantly felt that Bowen was unpredictable.
Nonetheless, since Bowen had already withdrawn himself, Amber’s line of sight fell back on Jack.
Amber still needed to go back and find out about Josua’s condition.
He was not planning to waste much time on Jack.
At that time, Amber’s gaze suddenly flickered.
Jack also noticed the change in Amber’s gaze, and he turned around to take a look.
Next, Jack’s expression quickly dimmed.
About dozens of silhouettes dashed out of the second route. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Jack initially left those bunch of people behind, but as he had a stalemate with Amber for a while, the men quickly caught up.
Nevertheless, those people were also bad news for Anderson.
Blocking a person was an easy feat, but fending off a bunch of people was difficult.
With a loud bang, Jack fell in front of dozens of men, and he pointed at Amber as if he suffered a considerable grievance.
“Vivian, you’re such an abominable person! You stole my spirit essence when I was unprepared.”
“What? Spirit essence?”
The dozen or so men were instantly stupefied, and they glanced at each other.
In their eyes, there was an obvious look of greed.
After all, they knew well how precious a spirit essence was, and Jack’s state did not seem as if he was lying.
Amber frowned, but he promptly understood Jack’s plan.
He tried to frame Anderson.
Looking at the group of men’s greedy expressions, Amber could not help but quietly curse.
“Idiots!”
naturally noticed their expressions too.
At that moment, he was secretly cheering, but he showed an indignant look on his face as he roared, “The Lawrence family’s son-in-law is shameless and despicable! He said he wanted to join forces, but he attacked me when I wasn’t paying attention and even stole my spirit essence.
If you can help me snatch my spirit essence back, I’m willing to split it with you.
In the future, we’ll be in the same brotherhood in Evergreen Town!”
Everyone’s faces immediately lit up in joy, and it was apparent that Jack persuaded them.
Nonetheless, there were still a few people that hesitated.
However, Jack quickly assured them.
“Don’t forget that I‘ll Jack Ford, from the Ford family! Why would I lie to you?!”
At that moment, everyone present made up their mind.
After all, that was Jack Ford from the Ford family, one of the Evergreen Town’s top three prominent families.
Since Jack could publicly say such a thing, why would it be a lie?
The warriors present also knew that their presence was insignificant in this competition.
Therefore, in the end, the person who could win the Dark Moon Sect’s spot would naturally be from the prominent families, and it would have nothing to do with them.
If they won the spot, it was unsure if it would be a blessing or a curse.
Hence, most of them came with an attitude that they were just here to gain experience.
However, Jack presented them an opportunity to befriend him, and they would also have a chance to get the spirit essence!
Accordingly, the bunch of warriors immediately felt their hearts burning with desire.
Then, without any hesitation, they all rushed toward Anderson.
Some of them even shouted, “Jack, you better mean what you said!”
Jack menacingly smiled in his heart, but on the surface, he showed a righteous expression and replied, “I’m an upright and frank person, so why would I lie?!” Then, he looked over the crowd and stared at Amber with eyes full of hatred and pride.
Jack thought, “Although I’m not your opponent, many people are willing to fight you for me.
Besides, with the spiritual essence as temptation, you won’t be able to run away!”
Seeing that the crowd rushed toward him, and more people appeared from behind Jack, Amber’s frown deepened.
Then, Amber could not help but curse, “A bunch of idiots!”
He did not expect that Jack would use such a cheap method.
In a flash, the group of warriors ran toward Frank, and some of them even yelled non-stop, “Vivian, why don’t you just give us the spirit essence? We’ll let you off the hook if you do!”
“We know you’re strong, but it’s impossible to fight against many opponents.
It’s best if you just give up now so that you won’ t suffer!”
“Why are you talking nonsense with a heavily injured man!”
“Hand over the pouch around your waist!”
