Chapter 539 Extremely Annoying
The moment the lake recovered its calm, a wave suddenly curled up. Like an arrow, it flew in Fabian’s direction,
seeming to split the lake in half.
When he saw the attack, Fabian jumped into the air. The boat beneath his legs was instantaneously shattered into
pieces.
Even though he had evaded the attack, the same couldn’t be said of the subordinates behind him. After they were
thrown overboard by the large wave, their limbs were severed from their bodies, as if they had gone through a
grinder.
The moment the poisonous creatures smelled blood, they swarmed the bodies that fell into the lake and devoured
them.

“You truly are something. No wonder the four elders have betrayed me,” Fabian sneered in mid-air as his body
gradually landed on the surface of the water, where he stood still.
If Liam hadn’t informed Jared of the stone columns in the water, Jared would’ve assumed that Fabian was so
powerful that he could actually walk on water.
As Jared’s body descended at the same time, he landed on a piece of floating wood. Even though he was capable of
standing on water, it would consume a significant amount of spiritual energy just to sustain himself. Now that the
lake was littered with pieces of broken wood, Jared could save a lot of energy by using them as support.
Giving Fabian a look of disdain, Jared declared, “I’m surprised you’re unashamed of accusing others of betrayal
after doing the same. You’re nothing but a joke.”
Fabian was briefly shaken before he broke into a wide smirk. “I didn’t expect you to have met Dante. Nonetheless,
you shouldn’t believe everything he says. After all, he is an equally crafty man. Do you really think that he founded
the Crescent Sect for a noble purpose? He’s just relying on his ability to read someone’s face to go around cheating
others! Considering how young and powerful you are, why don’t you join me? I can definitely elevate your strength
to the next level. It’s certainly more attractive than helping Dante. After all, he is just using you.”
“Are you saying that you won’t hold me accountable for killing the Crescent Sect’s men?” Jared asked
mischievously.
“Haha, the men you killed are nothing but pawns within the organization, no different from the parasites I raise.
Since you have killed them, so be it. Given that you were able to expel my parasites, it means that you possess a
good understanding of them. As long as you collaborate with me, I can recommend you to the Poison King of
Mapleton so that he can teach you techniques that use poison. How about that?”
Fabian burst into laughter as he continued to offer Jared an olive branch.
The power that Jared had demonstrated was enough to entice Fabian into recruiting him.

“Do you know the people of Mapleton?” Jared asked curiously.
“More than that, for the Poison King is my godfather. The reason I disfigured myself and joined Crescent Sect was
just to secure its resources. Soon, the Crescent Sect will be controlled by Mapleton!” Fabian gloated.
“Looks like if I kill you, there will be bad blood between Mapleton and me. This is a f*cking pain.” Jared sighed as he
furrowed his brows.
Given how busy he was, he had not managed to find time to continue his training despite the impending arrival of
the fifteenth of July. Even though he had achieved Foundation Phase, he still wasn’t confident enough, especially
after Dante told him that he would be faced with a calamity on that fateful day. Consequently, Jared wanted to
strengthen himself to face whatever that was coming.
“What did you say?” Fabian’s expression turned grim. “You actually think you can kill me? This is nothing but a
joke.”
Just as he spoke, Fabian tapped his foot on the water and leaped into the air again. Throwing his palms out, he
caused the lake to boil and unleashed another giant wave in Jared’s direction.
