A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 778

Chapter 778 A Grave Mistake

Axton gazed at Hayden and uttered calmly, “Leave. If you continue to persist, I won’t show mercy…”

Infuriated, Hayden glowered at Jared and hissed through clenched teeth, “Consider yourself lucky today. Sooner or later, I’ll kill you…”

With that, Hayden turned to leave.

When the injured Curtis saw that, he quickly hurried after Hayden.

However, Jared stepped forward and blocked his path, saying, “Don’t even think about leaving…”

“W-What are you going to do?” Curtis was so terrified that he shook like a leaf. Now that one of his hands was severed, he was even more incapable of taking on Jared.

Jared’s eyes glinted coldly. “I’m going to kill you…”

If he hadn’t brought Hayden here, Lyanna wouldn’t have died. It was all because of him!

Terrified by Jared’s murderous gaze, Curtis quickly turned to Hayden and pleaded, “Mr. Xuereb, I’m begging you. Please take me with you…”

At that moment, all he could do was pray that Hayden would take him away from that place.

Alas, Hayden left without so much as a backward glance.

Curtis sank into despair when he saw Hayden walk off. Left with no other choice, he cast a pleading look at Jared and begged desperately, “Please spare me! I’ll give you anything you want! Turcoln has many magical items—”

Jared fixed him with a menacing glare wordlessly, then swung the Dragonslayer Sword.

Curtis’ head flew up in the air, then fell to the ground and rolled away into a far corner.

Jared sheathed his sword, then went over to Axton and said, “Thank you for coming to my rescue, Mr. Knox.”

“You’re welcome. It was nothing, really,” Axton responded with a faint smile. As his gaze fell upon the Divine Cauldron, he asked, “Is this bronze cauldron yours?”

Soon, he realized that she was indeed alive. Her heart was still beating, albeit weakly.

Jared broke out in a cold sweat. If it had not been for Axton, Jared would have buried Lyanna!

Before checking on Lyanna earlier, he had already expended most of his spiritual energy. Thus, he did not manage to do a thorough check. And I very nearly made a grave mistake!

“Please lead the way, Mr. Knox…”

Having said that, Jared instructed Tommy, “Start the car. We’re heading to the Medicine God Sect immediately.”

“The Medicine God Sect don’t allow outsiders to come and go as they please. It’d be better for you to join me in my car,” Axton explained.

Jared nodded. Not wanting Josephine to worry, he instructed Tommy to return to Horington with the others and let her know where he had gone.

After that, he carried Lyanna into Axton’s car. With Donald at the wheel, they made their way swiftly to the Medicine God Sect.
