When that wisp of aura entered Effie’s body, she was stunned briefly. On the heels of that, her 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, he still chose to believe the former. Thus, he 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 her eyes almost popping out of

The distance between them was the shortest, so she attacked the man first. The abrupt attack caught Hyrum off
guard for a moment. He instinctively shot his hand out and sent her flying.
But right after doing so, he instantly froze on the spot, for the blow had leaked his aura in a heartbeat. Atlas was
momentarily taken aback. Subsequently, he 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, he had no choice but to flee quickly.
Atlas’ face contorted into a mask of fury, and he reflexively wanted to give chase. But after glancing at Effie, who
had fallen to the ground, he 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, he whirled around and gave chase. No sooner than he 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 her in her manic state, he frowned slightly. Although she had lost all reason and her capabilities
had weakened significantly, he still could not go all out since he could not hurt her.
Right then, he had to first restrain her before using silver needles to force the poison out. In Effie’s current
condition, he had no way of treating her. With a wave of his hand, he set up an arcane array around the room.
Then, he 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 he dodged. Gradually, Effie’s frantic attacks
drained her of energy. Sweat dotted her forehead.
However, her sweat turned out to be black in color, and it stained her entire face. As Jared stared at her in
bafflement, she suddenly stopped attacking.
The crimson in her eyes slowly faded, and she regained her sanity once again. Effie swept her gaze over the messy
room before pinning her eyes on Jared.
With perplexity written all over her face, she 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 she 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 she had
regained her sanity.
Effie eyed the man. Realizing he harbored no hostility toward her, she nodded and replied, “Okay. Go ahead.”
