A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1538

Chapter 1538 Infuriated

An indescribable glint flashed past Gilbert’s eyes when he saw how terrible he looked. The sinister quality of his gaze was sufficient to cause one to shudder.

“I’m going to make your life a living hell,” he hissed, emanating an aura from his body again. Jared’s face fell the moment he sensed Gilbert’s aura. He thought he could kill Gilbert with one attack.

Alas, he had underestimated the abilities of a Top Level Martial Arts Marquis. Now that he had lost the opportunity to flee, he was beginning to feel regretful.

At that moment, he could only place his hopes on Arthur’s life-saving charm.

“Being a Top Level Martial Arts Marquis is indeed powerful, but unfortunately, you’re terribly ignorant. Look. You haven’t even advanced to the Greater Martial Arts Marquis rank after so many years,” said Jared while panting heavily. He was intentionally angering Gilbert, for he knew people made mistakes when incensed.

Sure enough, Gilbert’s face reddened with anger at Jared’s mockery.

The truth was, Jared had hit Gilbert’s sore spot, for he was terribly ashamed of not being able to advance to Greater Martial Arts Marquis after all those years.

Hence, it was impossible for Gilbert not to be mad when Jared was blatantly attacking the former’s sore spot.

“You’re asking for it…”

Suddenly, bursts of brilliant light began to gather in his hands that were holding the tiger head sword behind him.

Even as the light was fusing with Gilbert, he was still chanting under his breath.

Then, strings of words flashed in the air and shone brilliantly.

“You’re not the only one who knows magecraft. I’m going to let you have a taste of my true power,” said Gilbert. Immediately, the strings of words came together and released a dazzling light.

Not only that, there was a terrifying aura rushing toward Jared.

The latter furrowed his brows, feeling extremely anxious.

There was absolutely no chance of him escaping the situation this time.

Whoosh!

Not long after, the words formed into a tower and collapsed on Jared.

Right then, he felt as if the surrounding air froze and that there was a mountain pressing on him.

Cracks began to form on the ground, and his feet started sinking into it.

Jared cast Gilbert a grim look. When the former felt the waves of pain washing over his body, he knew his body could not last any longer.

Thus, Jared felt around his body for the life-saving charm. He planned to use it against Gilbert’s next attack so that he could run away.

Jared had a feeling he would not survive if he continued fighting Gilbert.

As if sensing Jared’s intention, Gilbert smirked. “Are you trying to run away? Don’t you want to avenge your girlfriend?”

After saying that, a mist of blood surrounded him.

What was more surprising was that the mist had a familiar aura.

It belonged to Josephine.

Jared’s eyes widened with shock, and his face gradually distorted with anger.

Never did he expect Gilbert to have consumed Josephine’s blood to increase his strength.

“Your girlfriend’s blood is truly the best cultivation resource on earth. It’s a pity that I still failed to enter Greater Martial Arts Marquis even after taking so much of it. Tsk. What a pity…” Gilbert cast Jared an amused look. This time, it was Jared’s turn to be infuriated.
