A Man Like None Other - Season 5 Episode 25

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.

“It seems that we old men need to pay him a visit.” Just as he spoke, the old man waved his sleeves, causing the chess set in front of him to disappear.

As he turned to leave, a cold glint flashed in Fabian’s eye.

Meanwhile, Josephine had already fallen into a deep sleep at Dragon Bay. With one hand

gripping Jared tightly, it was evident that she didn’t dare to let Jared leave.

When he saw the condition she was in, Jared let out a gentle sigh. With sympathy in his eyes, he blamed himself for putting Josephine through such a terrifying experience.

Closing his eyes, Jared began to cultivate the spiritual energy he had absorbed from Dreadwing and Darkwing. Soon, a faint white mist began to form over his head. Once it took the shape of a vortex, it began to gush rapidly into Jared’s body.

The next day morning, Phoenix sent a message informing Jared that she had paid Herb Palace and was waiting for them to deliver the goods.

Nonetheless, Jared didn’t reply, as he planned to spend the next few days with Josephine so that he can ease her from the trauma.

Meanwhile, after Herb Palace had received the money sent by Phoenix, Jeremy went to see Spencer right away.

“Palace Chief, we have received the money. Should we send over the goods?” Jeremy asked.

“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.
