Chapter 213: Gan Salin’s Insanity

After Jack disappeared into the mist, followed by Longsword, Minerva, and a few of their followers who were determined to get the fruit, everyone else was left in an excited silence. They struggled...

Chapter 209: Making a Deal

Small edit change:

Back when they met the devil, the Sage guided them through a complex path both away AND towards the devil. In other words, they went from point A (the right path) to point ...

Chapter 208: Bullied by a Sore Loser

Jack’s hand wrapped steadily around the blood-red apple—the Dao Sprouting Pill. It fit in his palm snugly.

Chapter 202: To Save One’s Bros

Turning, Brock found a human approaching. He was a tall, lanky, young-looking one with an evil glint in his eyes, like a kid about to bully his shortest pack-mate. Brock rummaged through his memory...
