The Man’s Decree

CHAPTER 2038 MASSACRE

The other shrines started to pressure Ryosuke. Even though the Watanabe family was big and had high social standing in Xendale, it was still difficult for Ryosuke to withstand the pressure exerted by a few shrines.

“Master, the construction of our shrine has been obstructed. Also, droves of our followers had been cheated to pray at other shrines.”

Like a child who did something wrong, Ryosuke reported the latest updates to Jared with a bowed head.

Jared had initially planned to return to Chanaea. After all, Asuka was already dead. No one would cause him trouble in Chanaea anymore.

Plus, he had eradicated Thousand Crane Shrine and was being revered as a Deity.

Yet, seeing the current situation, he decided to stay in Jetroina for a while longer.

Jared felt it was much faster and easier to improve his ranks by absorbing Toyotomi's powers than through cultivation.

Since the ones he drained were Jetroinians, he didn't feel any guilt about his actions.

“Ryosuke, how many shrines are there in Jetroina?” Jared asked impassively.

Stunned by his question, Ryosuke snapped out of it quickly before answering, “There are four shrines in Jetroina, Master. Other than Thousand Crane Shrine that you have destroyed, there are also Zenko Shrine, Zenden Shrine, and Seida Shrine. The Deities worshiped by the three shrines are all Martial Arts Gods from centuries ago.”

Ryosuke looked up at Jared silently as he waited for his order. He knew Jared wouldn't ask for these details without cause.

“Jared, are you thinking of eradicating the other shrines too?”

Flaxseed had seen through Jared's intention.

Jared nodded. “That's right. I want Jetroina to revere only one Deity, and that's me.”

Besides having Jetroinians revere him, Jared mainly wanted to devour the other Deities' powers.

If he absorbed all the powers from the other three Deities, his ability would most likely ascent to the next level.

“Master, you'll probably attract the higher-ups' attention and cause an uproar if you eradicate the other three shrines.” Ryosuke pointed out.

“So what if I gain their attention? If they're not happy about it, I can slaughter them and take their places,” he said indifferently with a cold smirk.

With his current abilities, he was basically unrivaled in the mundane world.

As long as he didn't step into the secret realm, the whole mundane world would be under his feet.

The highest cultivation rank in the mundane world was Martial Arts Saint. Other Martial Arts Saints' powers couldn't be compared to Jared's despite being in the same rank.

Hearing Jared's comment, Ryosuke merely lowered his head silently. He believed Jared was a man of his word since he had the capability.

Arriving at Fujio Mountain, Jared clasped his hands behind his back as he overlooked the entire Jetroina with an icy gaze.

This place marks my beginning in Jetroina.

“I'll start the massacre from today.”
