“These people are from the Duad Formation Sect in the central region. I had informed them in advance, so they came right away,” Jared said with a slight smile.
“The Duad Formation Sect from the central region?” Wyatt’s eyes widened in shock. “That’s a very powerful magecraft sect. The Sky Slasher Sect must be no match for them. Is the sect leader they mention you, Mr. Chance?”
“That’s correct,” Jared replied with a smile.
Everyone’s heads buzzed with disbelief. They couldn’t fathom how a Sixth Level Tribulator like Jared, and an alchemist at that, had become the sect leader of a magecraft sect.
Even Viola and the others were curious, as Jared had never mentioned being the sect leader of the Duad Formation Sect.
“It’s no wonder you’re so confident and have such a thorough understanding of the formation. Being the master of the Duad Formation Sect certainly explains it. My apologies!” Waylon said, immediately becoming respectful upon learning Jared’s identity.
He had previously doubted Jared, but now, knowing his status, he became very respectful.
Other alchemists also started to treat Jared with utmost respect. Even those who had harbored thoughts of getting the hundred-year offering the Demon Seal Alliance had completely abandoned those thoughts now!
With the backing of Allardland and being the sect leader of the Duad Formation Sect, how could anyone dare to act against Jared?
Everyone now understood why the Demon Seal Alliance was offering a hundred-year offering. With someone like Jared, if the benefits were too low, no one would act!
Meanwhile, Thaddeus and the others, who were observing from afar, were dumbfounded by the sudden appearance of the Duad Formation Sect members.
Ernesto frowned and asked, “President Surrey, what’s going on? Why have so many people suddenly appeared? And they seem to be very skilled in magecraft. Are they here to rescue Medicine God Island?”
“These are members of the Duad Formation Sect. How did they suddenly end up here? I thought I heard them mention something about their sect leader. Could it be that their sect leader is also trapped here?” Thaddeus wondered, confused about how the Duad Formation Sect from the central region had ended up in the western region.
“These people trapped inside are all alchemists. How could there be a Duad Formation Sect master among them? This is truly strange.”
“So, what should we do? Should we take action?” Ernesto asked.
“Take action? I think the Sky Slasher Sect is finished. We should observe the situation. If things look bad, we should retreat immediately!”
Thaddeus was hesitant to act rashly, as he hadn’t anticipated the Duad Formation Sect’s involvement.
At this time, the Duad Formation Sect and the Sky Slasher Sect were engaged in fierce combat, with dazzling magecraft exploding in the air!
Both sides suffered casualties!
“Carlo, we have no bad blood with the Sky Slasher Sect, nor any past conflicts. Why did you travel so far to deal with us?” Stanton roared at Carlo.
Victory had seemed within reach, but the sudden arrival of the Duad Formation Sect had shifted the advantage to them.
“Stanton, although the Sky Slasher Sect has no bad blood with us, you were foolish enough to trap our sect leader in the formation. Don’t blame us for being rude!” Carlo snorted coldly.
“Your sect leader?” Stanton was bewildered. “Who is your sect leader? I’ve only trapped alchemists from the Alchemist Guild, not any sect leader.”
“Jared Chance is the sect leader of Duad Formation Sect. Now you know, right? Release him, and then kneel and apologize. If you beg for his forgiveness, you might have a slim chance of survival!” Carlo declared.
