A Man Like None Other

Xandros was utterly astounded as he watched Jared and Cloud leave. “What kind of technique is this, Mr. Quayle? Even though we’re standing right here, they didn’t detect us in the least, not even our auras,” he marveled.

With a hint of pride, Quintavius replied, “This is a skill known as Vanish, Mr. Xandros. It’s an ancestral technique passed down through the generations. Even a Top Level Tribulator cultivator wouldn’t be able to penetrate it. In fact, Vanish has rescued me numerous times in the past, and it has never failed. Now, we only need to wait patiently for them to leave before we can make our exit.”

Remus and Xandros were left dumbfounded as they searched the area. Yet, there was no trace of Jared to be found.

The fact that they could hear him but not see him sent a shiver of unease down their spines. Soon, they noticed ripples in the void before them. Before they knew it, Jared reappeared right in front of them.

Remus’ Vanish technique was promptly dispelled, exposing his position to Jared and Cloud.
