A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4800

Doveston.

The shape of an archway, formed by two massive boulders, bore the inscription of the word “Doveston.” It was unknown who had etched these characters there!

Beyond this door, there was a neat row of houses. This place was usually sparsely populated, with hardly a soul in sight.

Yet, every hundred years, when the Celestial Stairway descended, this place would become a bustling hub, teeming with cultivators from all walks of life who had journeyed here.

These cultivators were waiting at Doveston for the descent of the Celestial Stairway. While they waited, they also engaged in trade amongst themselves.

Jared, accompanied by Rosa and Isla, confidently strode into Doveston.

Jared didn't conceal his aura, nor did he alter his appearance.

Upon seeing Jared's arrival, many people appeared quite astonished.

After all, the Haverford family had offered a bounty of two hundred thousand celestial crystals for the execution of Jared, yet the audacious man dared to make a grand appearance at Doveston.

Especially now, when the Celestial Stairway had yet to descend and various powers had not fully taken control of Doveston. If someone from the Haverford family were to kill Jared here, no one would intervene.

On either side of the street, pairs of intense eyes were fixated on Jared and his companions.

Two hundred thousand celestial crystals was no small sum.

Moreover, the cultivators who came here were often at the Top Level Ultimate Realm Level Nine, and some were even on the verge of ascending to the Immortal Realm. These were the people who needed the celestial crystals the most.

However, Jared's brazen appearance at Doveston did deter many with ill intentions from acting recklessly.

After all, Jared was no fool. The fact that he dared to show up indicated that he was well-prepared in advance. Who knew if Jared had had some influential backing behind him?

So, before anyone could confirm the details, no one dared to make the first move. After all, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.

“Sis, there are so many people around us. I feel so shy. Do you think it's because we're too beautiful?”

Feeling the intense gazes of those around her, Isla spoke with a touch of shyness.

“Stop being so self-absorbed. These people are looking at Mr. Chance. In their eyes, he's nothing short of a walking treasure trove. Two hundred thousand celestial crystals - who wouldn't be envious of that?”

Rosa glanced at Isla.

“It's all your fault. Neither Father nor Master have arrived yet, and you've already tipped off Jared, emboldening him to such an extent. If anyone threatens Jared right now, I need you to step in. If anything happens to Jared, you'll have to answer to me!”

Catalina shot Fraser a glare, blaming him.

“Women...” Fraser sighed.

“What are you all gawking at? Haven't you ever seen a celestial beast before? Keep staring, and I'll gouge your eyes out! Get lost!”

Jared arrogantly pointed his Dragonslayer Sword at the crowd around him, hurling insults.

Everyone was baffled.

Rosa and Isla also looked at Jared, their faces filled with shock.

“Mr. Chance, tone it down a bit. Sure, you should be assertive, but don't go overboard and offend everyone! If we anger everyone and they all turn against us, I'm afraid we won't even have scraps left!”

With a tense expression, Rosa leaned in and whispered into Jared's ear.
