The Legendary Man

The Legendary Man Chapter 1200-As prefects, the three of them held the most authority in the village.

Taking Frank as an example, he had killed a villager in front of tens of other men, but no one dared to show him any disapproval.

Consequently, the presence of three prefects terrified the villagers even further, causing them to disperse without any resistance.

The three of them had only one goal now—to capture Jonathan and claim credit for it.

That was also why Frank didn’t call for help upon detecting Jonathan’s presence.

The first reason was that they had managed to capture Vicador and Hayden easily.

Due to the huge difference in concentration of spiritual energy within and without the small world, a cultivator from the small world would be significantly stronger than one of the same cultivation level from outside.

As a result, Frank felt that he could eliminate Jonathan by himself.

The second reason was the reward offered by Outer City of Yannopolis.

Every year, the envoys of Outer City would recruit cultivators from various villages, but the vacancies available were extremely limited.

The selection process was so competitive that a prefect from a medium-sized village like Upriver Village didn’t stand a good chance of being picked at all.

As a result, if news of Jonathan’s arrival got out and the other prefects arrived to capture him together, Frank’s chances of being chosen as an envoy of Yannopolis would drastically decrease.

That was also why the two prefects who subsequently arrived made the same decision as Frank.

Since Jonathan was a formidable opponent, they figured that their combined efforts would be enough to bring him in, and there was no need to get others involved.

They were well aware of what it meant for the credit to be split three ways instead of among ten other prefects. Yet little did they know that their greed would become the very reason for their undoing.

Meanwhile, a small blade of grass began gradually sprouting out of the ground.

It might be doing so slowly, but its progress was still visible to the naked eye.

Along the corner of the deep crater formed by the exploding green wolf, the grass grew to the height of half an adult human within a short while.

During that period, the empty space around Upriver Village’s entrance was suddenly filled with lush greenery.

“What’s going on?”

When the two recently-arrived prefects looked at Frank, all they saw was a clueless expression on his face. Evidently, he had yet to sense the impending danger.

The next moment, the ground began to churn as Jonathan’s figure gradually rose up from the crater before settling down on the surface.

“My fellow cultivators, it seems that fate has brought us together!” Jonathan remarked with a slight smile as he scanned the three prefects.

Staring blankly at Jonathan, Frank shouted, “Isn’t that—”
