Chapter 322 - Are You Probing or Expressing Goodwill?
The moment they saw Jerry, some of them revealed an expression of understanding. It was as though their guesses had been confirmed, while others had even more doubts in their eyes, as though the people from the Sky dynasty that appeared were different from what they had imagined.
While the trial-takers in the maze hall were sizing up Jerry and company, Jerry was also sizing up the people around him. Without a doubt, most of these people were very strong.
However, when he thought about how long these people had lived in the trial grounds, the weaker ones had long been eliminated.
While Jerry was sizing up these people, he was wondering what these people were thinking. After all, he was the one who destroyed the Divine Spear dynasty. Furthermore, he heard that the Master of the Divine Spear Dynasty, Lu Zian, had an incredible elder brother.
Who knew if there were any underlings of that guy? Some of them even thought that they could destroy Jerry to win Claire’s favor. After all, they would rise to the top one day; the earlier they established a good relationship, the better they could take care of each other.
Just as Jerry was thinking about Claire’s reaction, a group of people squeezed through the crowd and walked towards Jerry and the others. Jerry clearly noticed that when the people around him saw that person, they frowned and all made way, as if they did not want to provoke him.
The leader of the group was a man dressed in red. Although he was a man, his face was unusually feminine, and there was an extremely thick layer of makeup on his face. It was unknown what was on his lips, as if they had been stained with fresh blood.
A pair of long and narrow eyes unscrupulously sized up Jerry, as if he had discovered a novel thing. His eyes were naked with curiosity, but of course, there was also some unknown meaning mixed within this curiosity, jerry also did not understand what this person meant.
However, from the aura that came from that person, he was very strong. It could be said that he was slightly stronger than the great commander of the Divine Spear dynasty, Barker. One had to know that even though Jerry’s strength had received a huge increase, he had broken through to the peak of the third level divine king, but even so, Jerry still felt that his current cultivation level was still weaker than Barker’s.
Of course, it was not that Jerry could not defeat Barker. Even if Barker was in front of him, or even when Barker was at his peak, Jerry was confident enough to kill him. who was stronger and who was weaker was not determined solely by one’s cultivation level.
Could it be that when both parties reported their cultivation level to each other in the battle later on, the person at the first level of their cultivation level would immediately lose!
“Who is it? My cultivation base is now at the peak of a Tier 3 godly King!”
“Wow! It’s actually at the peak of a Tier 3 godly king! I’ve just stepped into the late-stage of a Tier 3 godly king. I’m not your match. I surrender!”
At the thought of this, a funny scene appeared in Jerry’s mind. If that was really the case, then the battles in the future would become signposts. How could a battle be so simple? A moment of mistake, a flaw in a move, could cause the entire battle situation to change.
“Don’t be so nervous? This is the Maze Palace Hall! According to the rules of the endless tower, fighting is prohibited in the palace hall. Those who violate the rules will be killed on the spot!” The red-robed man seemed to sense the vigilance of Jerry and the others, he covered his mouth with one hand and laughed. A burst of laughter like a silver bell rang out.
Nevertheless, Jerry and the others did not let down their guard at all. Moreover, as the red-robed man got closer and closer, coupled with his voice, the people from the Sky Dynasty felt more and more uncomfortable. The main reason was that the red-robed man’s every move.., every word and action was too much like a woman.
The problem was that it was obvious that the man was a man, which was a little annoying.
“When you’re out, you can’t be too careful!” Jerry said with a faint smile. When the man walked towards them just now, Simmons had already introduced the man to Jerry through the voice in his heart.
That person’s name was Chi Ke Maharte, and his strength was quite extraordinary. However, compared to his strength, what was even more impressive was his strange personality. It was unknown whether it was because of the cultivation technique he practiced or something else, Chi Ke’s entire person was leaning towards the feminine side, similar to a woman. The followers he chose were all enormous and burly warriors, so it was inevitable that some strange rumors would spread.
However, Chi Ke turned a blind eye to these rumors. It was unknown whether he was too lazy to pay attention to them or whether those rumors were the truth. However, he did not pay attention to them and instead caused all kinds of rumors to become more and more vicious.
“Careful? What’s there to be careful about? The one who should be careful should be someone else. After all, you eliminated that Guy Lu Zian right away as soon as you arrived,” uttered Chi Ke said with a smile and even threw a flirtatious glance at Jerry.
At the moment, Jerry felt uncomfortable, but he did not show it on the surface. He was the ruler of the dynasty after all. In all this time, he had seen all kinds of scenes, although such scenes were rare, but his self-cultivation was still there. He would never lose his sense of propriety just because of such a small matter.
However, as soon as Chi Ke finished speaking, Jerry could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the hall had changed. Compared to just now, the anger in the hall had instantly become tense. Jerry frowned, without a doubt, Chi Ke’s words just now had raised everyone’s vigilance towards Jerry.
After all, Jerry had indeed destroyed Lu Zian. Regardless of whether it was Jerry’s backer or Jerry’s own secret, there was one thing that had to be admitted.., that was that Jerry’s current strength could eliminate most of the participants on the second level of the endless tower.
“That’s different. I don’t know why the people from the Divine Spear dynasty suddenly came to find trouble with us. We were just defending ourselves. In fact, our sky dynasty is very friendly. As long as you don’t deal with me, I naturally won’t find trouble with you for no reason!” Jerry did not deny this point, after all, it was a fact that he had eliminated the Divine Spear dynasty. He could not deny it even if he wanted to.
Furthermore, there was no need to deny it. A person’s tolerance did not bring about respect. Only strength could shut those people up.
Certainly, there was still an explanation. Jerry directly stated that he would not offend anyone if they did not offend him. After all, if the trial-takers here thought that he was unreasonable and wanted to sweep everyone on the second level of the endless tower aside, then he might offend all the trial-takers.
Then, he might offend all the trial-takers. Although Jerry was confident in his strength, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could deal with all the trial-takers.
“Don’t worry, I have long disliked that divine spear dynasty. If you need help, you can come to me directly. Goodbye!” Upon saying that, Chi Ke directly left with his people. Even Jerry was a little dumbfounded, for a moment, he could not tell whether this person was an enemy or a friend!
Was the other party here to probe or to express goodwill?
