A Man Like None Other

Chapter 2454

Chapter 2454 Treacherous

“The cultivators of the mundane world see the Ethereal Realm as heaven. However, if you ask the humans in the

Ethereal Realm what they think of the place, they'll say it's hell. It's because the humans here crave power even

more. Everyone here's doing their best to become immortal, so in their eyes, friends and families aren't as

important. Some of them are willing to do anything to increase their cultivation level. That is why the most

fearsome thing in the Ethereal Realm is the human heart. All humans here are blinded by their lust for power. If not

for the restriction of the laws of nature, the mundane world is actually the ideal place for humans to live in.”

Hammerhead sighed, too.

Jared had nothing to say in response to that. I suppose people will always think the grass is greener on the other

side.

Meanwhile, inside a short building within Rock Village, Emily handed the demon beast's corpse to Clovis to be

processed. Then, she wiped the hands of an old woman lying on the bed. The latter's eyes were covered by a piece

of white cloth.

“I hunted a big demon beast today, Grandma. Ali said he'd sell the beast core and pelt at the city tomorrow to buy

medicine for you. Your eyes will be fine,” informed Emily.

“Why did you go hunting on your own? You're not powerful enough. If anything happens to you, how will I face your

deceased parents?” Ira, the old woman, reprimanded. Her heart wrenched at the thought of how much danger

Emily had been in.

“Don't worry, Grandma. I won't die that easily. Today, a good samaritan saved me and killed the demon beast for

me. He was so awesome. With just a flick of his finger, he executed the demon beast in one hit! Those people seem

quite powerful!”

Upon hearing that, Ira knitted her eyebrows slightly. “Where do they come from, Emily? Where are they now?”

“I don't know where they're from, Grandma, but they were brought into the village by Ali.”

“Oh no!” Ira promptly sat up, startling Emily. “Bring me to them immediately, Emily. How can Ali be so reckless and

allow them to enter our settlement?”

Emily was confounded by her grandmother's reaction. “There's no need to worry, Grandma. I don't think they look

like bad people. They even escorted me home.”

“Silly girl. You don't understand how treacherous humans are! Bring me there at once!” urged Ira.

With no other choice, Emily helped her grandmother out of the building.

Just as they arrived at the door, they met Ali.

“Where did you bring my saviors to, Ali?” inquired Emily.

“How can you be so careless, Ali? Why did you bring outsiders into the village? What are you doing as the village

chief?” Ira scolded with great dissatisfaction.

“I trapped the three of them in the stone house with the arcane arrays. They can't escape the building,” assured

Ali.

Upon hearing that, Emily pouted, upset. “They rescued me, Ali! How could you imprison them?”

“Emily, these people—”

“Stop talking and bring me to them!” Ira interrupted and urged Ali to bring her to the stone building.

When she arrived, she didn't head inside. Instead, she stood outside of the building and silently sent a thread of

aura into the structure.
