A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4668

Jaime felt an irresistible force surging through him. He was sent flying uncontrollably, much like a kite that had its string cut, covering dozens of meters in the air before landing. He skidded across the ground leaving a long trail behind him, and finally crashed heavily into a massive boulder.

“Pfft!”

Jaime spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood, staining the ground in front of him a vivid red.

“General Jaime!”

Upon witnessing the scene, Jaime's subordinates started to panic and shout, wanting to rush over to help. However, they were completely paralyzed by the overwhelming aura emanating from Tavon, unable to make a move.

Struggling, Jaime managed to pull himself up from the ground. With trembling hands, he wiped the trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with shock and defiance.

He had never imagined that, aside from the city lord, there could be such a formidable presence in Beast City. In front of them, he was astonishingly defenseless.

Upon seeing Jaime wounded by just a single punch from Tavon, Rex was beyond thrilled.

He looked at Jaime with a teasing gaze. “Jaime, it would be best for you to hand over the celestial crystal vein mine peacefully, and then surrender the person who killed my son. In light of our past camaraderie, I may spare your life. If you continue to be stubborn, I'm afraid I can't help you. Tavon is known for his fiery temper. One punch from him, and you could be wiped out.”

At this moment, Rex didn't want Tavon to kill Jaime. After all, Tavon was an outsider from Beast City, and if he were to kill Jaime, it would be troublesome if the city lord were to investigate.

All he needed to do was seize the celestial crystal vein mine and then take out Jared.

Only Jaime's life was something Rex wanted to handle personally. If the city lord truly decided to investigate, it would only be considered internal strife, not a crime punishable by death.

“Rex, stop pretending to be the good guy with me. You've been wanting to kill me for a while now, don't think I'm oblivious to that. I won't hand over the celestial crystal vein mine to you, and I certainly won't surrender Mr. Chance to you. If you have the guts, make your move!”

Jaime, being a man of substance, spoke with a cold huff.

Originally, the sky was a clear, vibrant blue. Suddenly, it was blanketed by dark clouds. These thick clouds roiled and churned like ink, and thick bolts of lightning darted through them, causing a thunderous roar that was almost deafening.

Everyone was taken aback by the sudden turn of events, each one of them instinctively looking up toward the sky.

Tavon halted his actions too, a flicker of confusion and unease passing through his eyes.

“Is... is someone provoking the thunder punishment?” Rex asked in terror, a slight tremor in his voice.

Because he had already witnessed this spectacle a few days ago, it must be someone who had broken through a boundary, triggering a lightning tribulation, but what kind of power could possibly trigger such a massive lightning tribulation?

At that moment, deep within the celestial crystal vein mine, Jared was engrossed in a critical breakthrough.

During these few days of intense training, Jared continuously absorbed the rich spiritual energy from the celestial crystal stone vein. The spiritual power within him surged like a tumultuous tide, constantly battering against the barrier of Ultimate Realm Level Two.
