A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1417

Chapter 1417 Energy Gathering Pill

“Are you saying that others can kill me while I cannot do the same to them?” Jared stared at Edgar coldly. “I’ve killed him. What do you plan to do now?”

Edgar did not expect Jared to retort in such a domineering manner. A furious expression slowly spread across Edgar’s face as he began emanating a terrifying aura from his body.

At that moment, Ryker walked over and patted Edgar’s shoulder, instantaneously suppressing the latter’s aura. Ryker knew that was not the right place and time to target Jared.

He merely glanced at Jared before he strode toward the stage.

“Everyone, today is the day of the Trial hosted by the Deragon family. This is the first time our family is organizing this event. I believe everyone present is an exceptional individual in the martial art world. So, to express my sincere gratitude for your participation, I have deliberately prepared some energy-gathering pills for all of you. My family hired an overseas alchemist to craft these energy-gathering pills, which can bring many benefits to our bodies.”

With that, a few members of the Deragon family brought out a plate of energy-gathering pills and started handing the pills to all the participants.

Delighted to receive the treat, everyone swallowed the energy-gathering pills without hesitation.

Most of them were thankful to the Deragon family for their generosity.

After they received their pills, Howard wanted to consume them immediately but was halted by Jared.

Jared picked up his energy-gathering pill and sniffed it. Then he crushed the pill in his hand and licked the powder with the tip of his tongue.

His brows knitted together as a sullen expression descended upon his face.

Taking in Jared’s reaction, Howard hastily whispered, “Jared, is there something wrong with this energy-gathering pill?”

“This energy-gathering pill contains musk. I am familiar with the art of crafting an energy-gathering pill, and musk is not even an ingredient required to produce this pill. Although I do not yet know the harmful effect of this energy-gathering pill, I am certain something fishy is going on. We should be careful, just in case,” Jared said to Howard vigilantly.

Everybody gazed at the four people in bafflement following their sudden emergence because they did not look familiar.

The four young men did not seem to come from any sect or family from the Jadeborough martial arts world. Nevertheless, since members of the Deragon family did not prohibit the four people from taking part in the Trial, no one felt it was appropriate for them to probe further.

Jared narrowed his eyes and stared intently at those four newcomers.

“Jared, do you recognize these people?” Howard asked him.

Jared shook his head with his brows furrowed. “I don’t recognize them, but I am familiar with the aura they are giving off.”

He could still sense their aura despite how faint it was.
