ocean-life Chapter 2617: Rules
Chapter 2617: Rules
"Fuck!" Eric Jackson couldn’t help but curse.He guessed the Church would definitely send someone, but he never expected they’d send his rival, Red River Aro.
At the Church, the two had once pursued the same woman together.
However, Red River Aro failed.
Later, when that woman went on a mission, she unfortunately died.
Young men are always reckless. This matter should have been water under the bridge long ago, but unexpectedly, Red River Aro started to hold a grudge against Eric Jackson.
On the surface, they were still brothers, but secretly, he employed quite a few tricks.
Though Red River Aro came, it didn’t truly intimidate Eric Jackson.
Their strengths were almost equal, Eric Jackson even had a slight edge over Red River Aro.
But now, the situation was different.
Red River Aro obviously ascended the Heavenly Path and received God’s blessing.
The gap between the two suddenly widened.
Everyone vividly remembers the surge in the Black Archbishop’s power.
Looking at the golden maple leaves filling the sky, Eric Jackson sniffed and could only pray that Julius Reed hadn’t deceived him.
To be honest, it’s pretty lame putting one’s life in someone else’s hands.
But what choice did he have since he was under someone else’s roof?
"These are people from the Church!"
"As soon as they make a move, it’s as fierce as thunderous lightning! The Church truly is a top organization of our time!"
"I just want to see if Julius Reed shows his face today. If the Church dared to come, they must be fully prepared."
The originally quiet mountaintop became lively once again.
Everyone had their own calculations in their minds.
But they weren’t afraid of stirring trouble. They all hoped for a fight.
The more intense, the better!
Ideally, both sides would suffer serious injuries!
In that case, Demarco Mount would be in grave danger.
"Before you die, I’ll give you a chance to repent to God."
Red River Aro, holding a golden sword, landed on a high platform.
As for the guards around, they remained indifferent.
Eric Jackson was suddenly stunned.
What about promised protection?
Are they going to sacrifice him?
He looked around but didn’t see Julius Reed.
Iwan Martinez was also drinking.
This is bad!
Duped!
Eric Jackson knew now there was no one he could rely on, only himself!
Julius Reed actually betrayed his promise!
Facing Red River Aro who had seen God, Eric Jackson felt very conflicted inside.
But he had no choice, he could only fight to the death!
But the crucial point is...
After being deceived by Julius Reed, he didn’t even bring a sword!
"Brother Eric, catch the sword!" Iwan Martinez stood up and fiercely threw the wooden sword in his hand.
Snap!
Eric Jackson grabbed it and wanted to ask Iwan Martinez where Julius Reed was.
But with words on the tip of his tongue, dignity made him swallow them back.
Even in death, he couldn’t die cowardly.
"Julius Reed said, you’re the Archbishop! Everyone who came today is a traitor, you need to personally clean house and show those who come to support you that you truly deserve to sit in the Archbishop’s position and not be Julius Reed’s puppet."
Iwan Martinez finished speaking and sat drunkenly on a chair, humming a small tune.
He showed no signs of concern.
Eric Jackson’s face turned green.
He wanted to prove himself, but the key was he didn’t have the strength!
If Red River Aro hadn’t seen God and received God’s blessing, then he had nothing to fear.
Just do it.
But now, after being pointed out by God, Red River Aro was far beyond what Eric Jackson could handle.
Talking about them fighting now is sheer nonsense.
Eric Jackson, bracing himself, prepared to fight hard.
"Eric Jackson, fight with confidence. I, Julius Reed, say you won’t die, you just won’t die."
At this moment, a voice reached Eric Jackson’s ears.
He looked around but couldn’t see Julius Reed’s shadow at all.
"Don’t get distracted. If I intervene today, you’ll be carrying the name of a puppet for a lifetime. Fight with confidence, I’ll help you from the shadows."
Julius Reed’s voice continued.
Hearing these words, Eric Jackson felt slightly relieved.
Even if he was being coaxed, it was better than nothing being said.
"Not repenting?" Red River Aro sneered, holding a sword formed from golden maple leaves, and said resentfully, "You stole my woman, now I want your life!"
"You said it was God’s will, but you’re using personal revenge!" Eric Jackson steeled his heart and swung his wooden sword to attack!
At this point in time, he absolutely couldn’t back down!
Once he backs down, death is certain!
"Fool, what qualification do you have now to fight with someone who’s seen God!" Red River Aro said with extreme confidence, his face even showing a hint of contempt.
He raised his sword and walked towards Eric Jackson.
From the moment he saw God, his self-confidence began to swell intensely.
As long as he killed Eric Jackson, then he’d be a hero of the Church!
He might even have a second chance to open the Heavenly Path.
Thinking about being able to personally deal with his former rival, the thought excited Red River Aro inside.
At the same time.
Julius Reed not far away gently pressed the stopwatch.
Everything seemed to freeze.
He drew the Emerald King Sword and struck through the air!
Boom!
Red River Aro’s body exploded and was pulverized!
The stopwatch stopped, everything returned to reality.
"Traitor!"
Just as Red River Aro finished speaking, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.
He stumbled forward without any warning.
Eric Jackson didn’t hesitate for a moment, any chance he’d take action!
Snowflakes filled the sky!
Directly attacking Red River Aro!
"How could this happen!"
Red River Aro was shocked; he pointed forward, and maple leaves dispersed to form an umbrella, protecting him in front.
Thud!
After doing all this, he spat blood.
"What happened!"
Red River Aro looked at the blood on the ground, trembled as he stood up, eyes full of fear.
How could he suddenly turn out like this!
While Eric Jackson was attacking furiously!
One sword strike after another!
The snowflakes essentially turned into a blizzard, directly striking down Red River Aro’s umbrella!
As the number of strikes increased, the umbrella began to collapse.
Eric Jackson had gone berserk!
With red eyes, he attacked regardless of everything!
Giving Red River Aro no chance to fight back!
"What did you do to me!" Red River Aro turned around and looked towards the crowd.
He knew that on the whole Demarco Mount, only Julius Reed’s people have this ability.
Eric Jackson definitely didn’t have this ability!
"Julius Reed said." Iwan Martinez shouted loudly: "This is the damned East! Even if your God comes, he has to do things according to our Eastern rules! Even if he’s your God, he has to kneel and salute when he sees the Jade Emperor! Got it, grandson!"
Splutter!
Eric Jackson’s sword, as Iwan Martinez finished speaking, happened to pierce through Red River Aro’s chest.
"You..." Red River Aro gripped the sword tightly, eyes red as he looked at Eric Jackson. "I won’t die, I’ve seen God..."
"I’m Eric Jackson. My father was an Eastern man! Understand! I’m an Eastern man, I don’t believe in God!" Eric Jackson kicked Red River Aro away, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
He wiped the blood from his face, completely unable to believe he actually killed someone who had tread the Heavenly Path!
"I have seen... seen God..." Red River Aro lay on the ground, his pupils gradually dilating.
