“Jared!”
“Jared!” At that sight, Josephine, Melanie, and Renee unleashed their spiritual energy in unison, preparing to rush toward Skylar. However, they stopped the next instant and looked at Jared in a daze. Skylar’s claw strike didn’t result in blood splattering or any visible wound.
Jared sneered and riveted his eyes on Skylar disparagingly. The smile on Skylar’s face froze and was replaced with a look of utter disbelief. He had exerted all his strength in that claw strike earlier, and Jared had taken the hit head- on, yet he still failed to injure Jared.
Skylar couldn’t cause his opponent the slightest harm, even as the latter stood unmoving in his spot. “H-How is this possible? No way!” Resentment filled Skylar’s eyes as he looked at Jared.
In order to defeat the man, Skylar had even undergone the most brutal training. Now that he had completed his training, Skylar thought he could triumph over and take revenge against Jared effortlessly.
In the end, he still wasn’t Jared’s match. Not only was he not a match, but he also couldn’t even wound Jared in the slightest. The turns of events caused Skylar to be disheartened and dumbfounded..
He wasn’t the only one to feel that. The six purple-robed emissaries also shared hist sentiment and frowned after witnessing that.. They didn’t expect Jared’s capabilities to grow so powerful in such a short time.
“Do you think you’re the only one who has been cultivating and has improved during this period? Let me tell you. You will never surpass me.” Jared chuckled coldly.
Then, he sent Skylar flying away with a single kick. Skylar’s body was launched into the distance like a kite with a broken thread before landing heavily on the ground.
Pfft! Skylar spat a mouthful of blood on the floor, the reflex partly prompted by his injury and partly because of extreme anger. “Why? Why is this happening?” he lamented at the sky, feeling that the heavens were being unfair to him. I’ve trained so hard and even subjected myself to the harshest environment and most brutal torments, yet all the efforts were in vain.
The devastating blow was too much for Skylar to bear. Gazing at the dazed Skylar, Jared fathomed the setback had ruined the man, so he smirked and said, “Instead of letting you live in such agony, I shall just grant you a swift death!”
With that, Jared raised his palm and swung it at Skylar. He wanted to do away with Skylar because the latter was too cunning. As long as Skylar was alive, Jared would never have peace.
However, just as Jared was about to hit Skylar, a figure suddenly showed up in a flash and shielded the latter while exchanging a ferocious palm strike with Jared.
Bang! After the thunderous sound rang out, the purple-robed emissaries took three steps back. while Jared’s body merely swayed a little. That purple-robed emissary was astounded. Seeing that, the other purple-robed emissaries immediately surged and first surrounded Jared and the others.
“What’s the matter? Are you planning to gang up on me?” Jared asked frostily while sweeping his eyes across the six purple-robed emissaries.
One of the purple-robed emissaries walked up to Jared and said, “Jared, we won’t kill you, but you’d better stay put obediently. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being unmerciful.”
Jared thought the voice sounded familiar. Then, he suddenly remembered whose voice that was. It’s Quindon! Jared didn’t expect the most powerful member of the Eight Major Secret Realms, Quindon, to be one of the purple-robed emissaries.
“You still need me to activate your Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation, so you won’t dare to kill me. In that case, why should I listen to you? What can you do to me if I refuse to comply? I insist on leaving.” Jared strode in the direction of Divine Quest Sect.
After he heard that, Quindon’s countenance flushed crimson in anger, and he shouted, “Stop him! We can’t kill him, but that doesn’t mean we can’t cripple him. Cripple him, and let’s see if he can still behave so arrogantly!”
With that, the few purple-robed emissaries charged at Jared.
