A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1634

Chapter 1634 Back On Your Word

“Jared, this tome was passed down from our seniors. It contains information about ancient ruins belonging to lost sects. You can just pick any one of them,” said Skylar. “What if I took this tome away?”

Jared smiled coldly. “You can’t do that. This is a valuable resource for Warriors Alliance. We’ve been successful all these years thanks to the wealth of knowledge contained in the text. Apart from the higher-ups, nobody else has access to its contents. The fact that we’re willing to allow you to have a glimpse and pick an ancient ruin is a sign of good faith!” huffed Skylar, his expression cold.

Jared did not respond to this. Instead, he just flipped through the old tome. The pages were filled with the names of many ancient ruins, as well as detailed descriptions of the lost sects themselves.

With each turn of the page, Jared felt that he was discovering a whole new continent. He never thought that Warriors Alliance could possess such a treasure trove of information.

Skylar noticed that Jared was taking his time flipping through the pages. With an arched brow, Skylar said, “Let me give you a word of advice. The further you go into the tome, the more valuable the resources found in the ancient ruins. Naturally, it’ll make your expedition more dangerous as well. I guess it depends on whether or not you have the guts to take the risk.”

Having said that, Skylar stared at Jared, waiting to see how the latter was going to respond. When Jared heard that, he immediately turned the pages until he reached the list of ancient ruins at the end of the book. Upon realizing what Jared had done, Skylar could not help but smirk.

He said those things earlier to deliberately goad Jared. After all, what if Jared picked a particularly dangerous ancient ruin to explore? There was no telling if he was going to survive.

If that happened, Skylar’s vengeance would have been fulfilled, and Jared could no longer be a threat to Warriors Alliance. Very soon, Jared’s gaze settled on an ancient ruin.

This particular ruin used to be owned by a sect called Skywrath Sect. The sect had a heavy emphasis on charm spells as part of its training regimen.

Skywrath Sect caught Jared’s eye because he was the weakest when it came to casting charm spells. Flaxseed, on the other hand, was a more proficient spellcaster. If he went along on the trip, it would have made things easier for Jared as well.

“That being said, we may have put the past behind us, but don’t forget that Warriors Alliance is still holding my girlfriend captive. Do you think I’m going to let that slide? If Warriors Alliance won’t let her go, then I will lay waste to this entire organization!” said Jared grimly.

Everyone could feel the murderous aura that radiated off Jared’s body. It seemed that with a single snap of his fingers, Jared could decimate Warriors Alliance just like that.

“What is the meaning of this?” hissed Skylar and his face was now a mask of unconcealed rage.

“I’ve already explained it to you. Our personal grievances are already sorted out, but my grievance with Warriors Alliance hasn’t gone away. If you don’t let her go, I’ll destroy Warriors Alliance sooner or later,” replied Jared icily.

“Jared, you’re going back on your word! How can you behave this way? You’re an important figure in the Jadeborough martial arts world!” asked Skylar, trying his best to maintain his composure.
