A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 2276

Chapter 2276 The Chase

However, Kayden soon realized he was still alive and yet to be swallowed by the demon beast moments later. When he opened his eyes again, he saw his father, Lamar, shielding him while the flying demon beast was reduced to a pile of minced meat.

“Dad!” Joy filled Kayden's eyes. “W-Why are you here?”

“You would've become food for the demon beast if I didn't show up!” Lamar sneered before charging toward the rest of the flying demon beasts.

Meanwhile, Chester, Brad, and their men faced the demon beasts head-on as soon as they arrived. They charged ahead without hesitation, and the hundreds of people who joined the battle tilted the balance of victory in the humans' favor. In response, the demon beasts retreated and dwindled in numbers.

In the end, the beasts turned and fled, but the humans decided against chasing after them. That was because it was highly plausible for high-level demon beasts to be lurking in the mountain since humans had never once hunted demon beasts in this mountain. The consequences would be dire if they happened to run into the king of the mountain. None of them would be able to escape alive if that happened. Besides, their only goal was to rescue their companions, so there wasn't a need to exterminate the demon beasts once that goal was achieved.

Many people began taking the beast cores from the carcasses of demon beasts scattered across the ground. Chester, on the other hand, asked Evangeline and Zain, “Have you seen Mr. Chance?”

“Dad, Mr. Chance went chasing after the Blazing Tiger just now, and he's nowhere to be seen,” Evangeline replied.

Chester furrowed his brows. “What? He went after the Blazing Tiger?”

The Blazing Tiger is way too powerful for Mr. Chance to handle!

Zain bobbed his head too. “Yep. He wanted to slay the Blazing Tiger to put and end to the demon beasts' attacks.”

Hearing this, Chester panicked. He knew searching for someone in this massive mountain would be akin to looking for a needle in a haystack, but no matter how difficult it could be, he would never give up, for the relationship between Jared and the Gunderson family was an extraordinary one.

Then again, as a member of the Dragon Sect, Chester wouldn't be able to forgive himself if he didn't even make the effort to search for Jared.

“Dad, why don't I wait for Mr. Chance at the foot of the mountain with some men? Maybe he will show up later,” Evangeline suggested.

There wasn't a solution better than that, so Chester had no choice but to agree. He allowed Evangeline to stay back with some men at the foot of the mountain while the rest of the group left the demon beast secret realm one after another.

In the meantime, Jared had no idea what was happening on the other side as he pursued the Blazing Tiger with undivided attention.

I must capture this b*stard and kill it! It pisses me off!
