875 Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger! (1)

Jacob stood up from the giant black pit, and the next mont, he appeared beside Elia, startling her for a mont before she quickly said with reverence, "Congratulations, teacher!"

Jacob glanced at her and nodded before he looked at the hallway leading towards the law essence. His head suddenly turned upward to where the entrance was located, and now he could see the light coming from a pitch-black hole.

Jacob coldly uttered, "You're still as sneaky as ever, huh, Blackwell?"

Elia was instantly alard and quickly looked in Jacob's direction. She saw nothing, and she did not sense any kind of presence, but she knew Jacob was far stronger than she could imagine, so she fully trusted his words, especially after personally witnessing what had happened earlier.

Just as Jacob's cold voice trailed off, the empty space suddenly trembled, and the next mont, a ghostly, shadowy ship with glowing runes materialized out of thin air.

Its blackened, spectral sails rippled without any wind, and the enormous figurehead, a skeletal creature with wings and bony arms outstretched, was exceptionally eerie and eye-catching.

Jacob instantly recognized this ghost ship since he had encountered the Drunkard Ghost Blackwell of Soulless Ghost Clan when he had just arrived in the Legendary Plains and ended up trapped in the Valley of Sunless Dusk over two thousand years ago.

Blackwell also helped him cross the marshlands and gave him information about the Valley of Sunless Dusk. Although two thousand years had passed, Blackwell was still here, and the ghost ship was also the sa.

But Jacob wasn't expecting to encounter this drunkard ghost who made wine out of living souls the mont he lifted the curse of this valley. However, it wasn't as if he hadn't thought about it since he knew many people would notice the sudden changes in the valley, and those greedy fellows who were eying the treasures of the valley would co in droves, even Legendary Kings.

However, Jacob was confident of leaving here while taking everything. By the ti others react, he'll be gone, and Blackwell, whom he once was wary of, is no longer a threat to Jacob.

Since Blackwell helped him two thousand years ago, Jacob didn't attack Blackwell the mont he sensed the ghost ship's familiar presence or it was anyone else, he wouldn't even bother with them and attack them while collecting their soul totems for fuel.

However, if Blackwell showed any greed and coveted his things, Jacob wouldn't mind sending the drunkard ghost on its way and taking his ghost ship as well since he was very interested in it.

After all, he couldn't waste his ti with Blackwell since there might be others on their way, so he had to 'clear' this place and leave since he didn't want any unwanted attention from him.

Blackwell on the ghost ship looked at Jacob with its ghostly eyes silently, but the more he looked, the more shocked he beca because he couldn't see through Jacob's power at all.

In fact, when he t Jacob, he still wasn't clear where Jacob stood in legendary rank, but he never sensed any danger from him. However, now that he saw Jacob after two thousand years, not only had Jacob survived, but he seed to beco truly unfathomable, and a faint sense of danger originated in Blackwell's soul.

When the curse on the valley suddenly lifted, Blackwell was naturally the first one who noticed it. In fact, he was very close to the Necropolises of Shades, and that's how he quickly got here, as he thought the Cursed Necromancer King was finally dead.

But he hadn't expected to see Jacob here, and it also seed that Jacob had sothing to do with the curse being lifted in this place.

Blackwell wasn't just a drunkard; he was shrewd and concealed himself very well, so he guessed many things in this short ti.

However, despite sensing danger from Jacob, he didn't want to give in and suddenly pulled an eerie smile, "Brave brother, first of all, I must congratulate you for killing that pesky Cursed Necromancer King and getting rid of the curse. But you can't take all the credit since I helped you in this as well, in a sense.

"After all, you might've noticed that the Cursed Necromancer King was wounded, and the person who did that was none other than . So, how about you share half of the spoils with your brother here, and then we can both celebrate with my most precious wine? It'll be my treat!"

As Blackwell revealed his aura, it started to climb, breaking from Legendary Noble to Legendary Lord. Blackwell suddenly stepped into the air and walked out of the ship. His aura finally reached its peak, becoming majestic and terrifyingly heavy—it was the aura of a Tier-3 Legendary King!

Jacob was truly surprised when Blackwell revealed his true rank. He also learned the identity of that mysterious attacker over a hundred years ago. It was Blackwell who seed to be playing the pig to eat the tiger! At this mont, many things also started to make sense, especially how Blackwell was able to roam in the Valley of Sunless Dusk for many years without any harm while others died.

But this also made a fact clear that when Blackwell talked with Jacob two thousand years ago, he was lying about not being able to reach the Necropolis of Shades.

However, Jacob's Eyes of Judge weren't strong enough at the ti, and neither was his power, so he wasn't able to detect lies and take it as if Blackwell was telling the truth.

This was the first ti the Eyes of Judge made him judge wrong, and now this variable nad Blackwell has appeared.

Furthermore, since Blackwell could wound the Cursed Necromancer King, this also ans that he was terrifyingly powerful. But what Jacob couldn't understand was why Blackwell attacked the Cursed Necromancer King at that particular ti.

Still, Jacob wasn't afraid since no matter how powerful Blackwell was, he was still forced to flee from the Cursed Necromancer King and was only able to wound him. In comparison, Jacob didn't fear the Cursed Necromancer King.

Jacob's eyes flickered coldly as he finally replied, "One last ti, leave before I make you stay here forever!"

The next mont, a terrifying force burst from Jacob's body, and the oppressive aura of the peak legendary king was suddenly suppressed, making Blackwell, who was confidently standing in the air, tremble as his expression changed significantly!
