A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425 The Enemy Of My Enemy Is My Friend

His spiritual energy had been swiftly sucked away by Jared who used the Focus Technique to absorb them for his own use.

After he was done, Jared dumped the bodies into a ditch on the hill.

Then, he tidied up the house before trying to push the room door open. However, he noticed that it was still locked from the inside.

Jared knocked and shouted, “Josephine, it’s me. I’m fine!”

When Josephine opened the door, her face was still filled with panic. The moment she saw Jared, she threw herself right into his arms.

Jared patted her gently on the back and reassured her softly.

At that moment, the jade pendant she was wearing had already lost its shine, indicating that it was no longer effective.

Looking at it, Jared frowned slightly. At that moment, he endeavored to make a more powerful ultimate shielding tool. Or else, Josephine’s safety could not be guaranteed.

Josephine had become Jared’s weakness, as he was constantly worried about her.

Meanwhile, in the grand lobby of Crescent Sect, Fabian was playing chess with an elderly man. Suddenly, a black clay vessel beside him began to move. When Fabian opened it to check, he noticed that two parasites were dead and were being devoured by the other parasites.

“It seems that I have underestimated him.”

Fabian furrowed his brows.

“What’s wrong? Are Darkwing and Dreadwing dead?” the old man asked.

With a grim expression, Fabian nodded in silence.

“Of course, we should. Furthermore, we have to make sure that everything is accounted for!” Spencer replied.

Jeremy inquired curiously. “Palace Chief, why do we have to do that? Zachariah is already dead, but Phoenix is still using the Jantz family’s name to deal with us. Therefore, why should we send them the goods? On top of that, Phoenix doesn’t have a patron in Jadeborough.”

“It’s true that she doesn’t have support in Jadeborough, but there’s someone powerful behind her still. Despite only being in his early twenties, he was able to kill both Zachariah and Venicus of Crescent Sect. Don’t you think he’s a genius?” Spencer replied with a slight grin.

“Palace Chief, are you talking about the man called Jared Chance? I heard that the only reason he was able to kill Zachariah was that Zachariah was worn down after battling Bane and Phoenix. Hence, Jared simply took advantage of his weak martial energy,” Jeremy commented with a mocking tone.

After all, there was no way someone in their twenties had enough time to cultivate themselves to the level of an Internal Energy Grandmaster.

“What about Venicus of Crescent Sect? Moreover, Jared had also killed Zedekiah who was sent by them too. Remember, our enemy’s enemy is our friend. Sooner or later, we will have a showdown with Crescent Sect. Now that there’s so much bad blood between Jared and them, we must try to get him on our side especially since he is a rare genius,” Spencer explained with a glint in his eye.

The more he talked about it, the more excited he became.
