Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 2817

Jaxon's arrival had disrupted Grenn's plans, and his expression changed slightly when he heard what Baldwin said.

Jaxon was determined to protect Adrian and Severin at all costs. The presence of the two half-immortals only served to raise the wariness that Grenn was feeling. On his end, he only had Baldwin as support, as Xavier was absent and chose instead to stay in the secret confines of the Primordial Sacred Land to mend his wounds and sort out the damaged foundation in the Eastern Sea.

Furthermore, even though Baldwin was a clone of the Ancestora, his strength was no longer than of a half-immortal and paled in comparison to that of a level nine supreme paragon. Unless Grenn planned to engage in a two-against-one confrontation, a reckless instigation of war would make it more difficult for them to escape.

Though Horra's demise had left Grenn bereaved and incensed, it had yet to ignite a vengeful rage that compelled him to seek retribution. Understanding one's limitations was the mark of wisdom.

Moreover, Grenn's statement about avenging his friend had been just mere rhetoric. His true intent lay in seizing the opportunity presented by Adrian and Severin's post-battle fatigue to eliminate them once and for all.

With the chance slipping through his fingers, Grenn was not going to be do something as foolish as confronting the two half-immortals. He glanced coldly at Adrian and snorted, "You got lucky this time."

He then glanced at the pale-faced Severin.
