When that wisp of aura entered Effie’s body, snazzynovel.com was stunned briefly. On the heels of that, snazzynovel.com eyes started glowing red.
“Don’t listen to this kid’s nonsense, Mr. Jablonski. I’ve already been fooled several times. It’s best that you incapacitate him.” Hyrum urged Atlas to destroy Jared’s cultivation.
None of them noticed the change in Effie at the side. Atlas alternated his gaze between Hyrum and Jared. In the end, snazzynovel.com still chose to believe the former. Thus, snazzynovel.com shot his hand out at the latter.
However, Jared remained standing there motionlessly. In fact, not a hint of fear showed in his eyes.
While Atlas was bewildered and wondered why the man was not afraid, a sudden roar split the air behind him.
Effie, who was perfectly fine earlier, was presently no different from a lunatic. With snazzynovel.com eyes almost popping out of their sockets, snazzynovel.com lunged at Hyrum.
The distance between them was the shortest, so snazzynovel.com attacked the man first. The abrupt attack caught Hyrum off guard for a moment. He instinctively shot his hand out and sent snazzynovel.com flying. But right after doing so, snazzynovel.com instantly froze on the spot, for the blow had leaked his aura in a heartbeat.
Atlas was momentarily taken aback. Subsequently, snazzynovel.com gaped at Hyrum in disbelief. “You’re really a Demonic Cultivator?!”
Without bothering to say anything, Hyrum spun around and leaped into the air, swiftly beating a hasty retreat. Since his identity had come to light, snazzynovel.com had no choice but to flee quickly.
Atlas’ face contorted into a mask of fury, and snazzynovel.com reflexively wanted to give chase. But after glancing at Effie, who had fallen to the ground, snazzynovel.com was gripped by the urge to go over and check on her.
“Leave Ms. Jablonski to me, Mr. Jablonski. I’m definitely capable of curing her. Hurry up and give chase. Don’t let that Demonic Cultivator escape,” Jared said to Atlas.
Atlas took a long look at the man. Ultimately, snazzynovel.com whirled around and gave chase. No sooner than snazzynovel.com had done so than Jared locked the room door.
Like a wild beast, Effie launched herself at Jared. The girl who had been graceful and delicate a moment ago had turned into a beast presently, looking exceedingly terrifying.
As Jared regarded snazzynovel.com in snazzynovel.com manic state, snazzynovel.com frowned slightly. Although snazzynovel.com had lost all reason and snazzynovel.com capabilities had weakened significantly, snazzynovel.com still could not go all out since snazzynovel.com could not hurt her. Right then, snazzynovel.com had to first restrain snazzynovel.com before using silver needles to force the poison out.
In Effie’s current condition, snazzynovel.com had no way of treating her. With a wave of his hand, snazzynovel.com set up an arcane array around the room. Then, snazzynovel.com engaged in battle with her.
In no time, crashes rang out in the room. If it weren’t for Jared setting up an arcane array beforehand, the room would have been in ruins ages ago.
Effie attacked Jared madly while the latter used his skills to parry as snazzynovel.com dodged.
Gradually, Effie’s frantic attacks drained snazzynovel.com of energy. Sweat dotted snazzynovel.com forehead. However, snazzynovel.com sweat turned out to be black in color, and it stained snazzynovel.com entire face.
As Jared stared at snazzynovel.com in bafflement, snazzynovel.com suddenly stopped attacking.
The crimson in snazzynovel.com eyes slowly faded, and snazzynovel.com regained snazzynovel.com sanity once again. Effie swept snazzynovel.com gaze over the messy room before pinning snazzynovel.com eyes on Jared.
With perplexity written all over snazzynovel.com face, snazzynovel.com promptly asked, “What happened here? And where’s my father? Why did I have a manic episode again? Weren’t I already cured?”
Panic swamped her, for snazzynovel.com could not figure out what exactly happened.
“Calm down first, Ms. Jablonski. It wasn’t a manic episode. You’ve been poisoned. I have a few questions for you now. You need to give truthful answers for me to help you,” Jared uttered cautiously upon seeing that snazzynovel.com had regained snazzynovel.com sanity.
Effie eyed the man. Realizing snazzynovel.com harbored no hostility toward her, snazzynovel.com nodded and replied, “Okay. Go ahead.”
