A Man Like None Other - Season 7 Episode 93

If Xander had exploded, they were sure that Jared would not be able to survive the blast.

Nevertheless, the fact that a Senior Grandmaster in his twenties had killed a Martial Arts Grandmaster made this one of the most exciting battles ever in the martial arts world. Furthermore, the David versus Goliath situation added to its allure.

No one could imagine how Jared defeated Xander and stopped him from self-destructing.

“Xander…”

When Sean saw that Xander had turned into a dried-out corpse, he dashed to the latter’s side with his subordinates behind him.

“Jared, I’m going to kill you!”

With his eyes spitting fire at Jared, Sean charged ahead like a madman.

Jared didn’t respond. Instead, it was Axton who stepped forward and slapped Sean, sending him flying back.

“Didn’t you hear what I said just now?”

Axton stared at Sean coldly. “If all of you have a death wish, I don’t mind helping you with it.”

Axton’s words finally knocked some sense into Sean.

After instructing his men to recover Xander’s body, Sean glared at Jared and Axton. “The Cooper family will remember this and exact revenge one day. As for the Medicine God Sect, you too will not escape our wrath.”

Just as he spoke, Sean left with his men. Meanwhile, Axton wasn’t bothered by Sean’s threats at all.

“Jared, are you all right?” Josephine asked with concern.

Jared shook his head. “I’m fine. I just feel a little exhausted.”

“In that case, you should quickly get some rest.” Josephine supported Jared and prepared to help him leave.

“Jared, your achievement will spread far and wide within the martial arts world after this battle. However, you can rest assured that the Medicine God Sect will defend the sanctity of the martial arts world’s rules. We will not allow the Coopers to do as they please. Anyway, if you have time, I hope you can drop by the Medicine God Sect for a visit. We can also exchange our knowledge on alchemy,” Axton remarked politely.

Jared nodded in response. “All right. I will visit you for some tips when I have the time.”

Given that Axton was helpful and polite, Jared’s impression of him gradually improved.

“In that case, we will be expecting you.”

With that, Axton left together with Donald.

Jared too returned to Dragon Bay flanked by his men.

Meanwhile, in the far-flung region of Mapleton, Poison King was watching the battle over a live stream.

In front of him, stood the five leaders of Mapleton.

“Poison King, although Jared doesn’t look that powerful, he has an extremely strong constitution. It’s as if he is immune to all poisons. He had even eradicated our mind-controlling parasites,” Weston reported softly.

However, Poison King didn’t reply. Instead, he continued to stare at Jared with a greedy expression.

“If I can train that body into a cadaver king, I would be invincible,” Poison King commented excitedly.

When the five leaders heard his words, they exchanged glances before lowering their heads in silence.

Jared had just killed Xander who was a Martial Arts Grandmaster. And yet, Poison King coveted Jared’s body despite being at the peak of a Senior Grandmaster’s level. Although he had trained for many years, he still failed to elevate himself to that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Nevertheless, Mapletons were adept at using poison to their advantage. Therefore, any gap in power could be easily bridged with their mastery of using poison. Unfortunately, since Jared’s body was immune to most kinds of poisons, there was little they could do to defeat him.

Consequently, the five leaders didn’t respond, as none of them dared to get in Jared’s way. After all, they had no desire to die an early death.

Despite the lack of response from his men, Poison King wasn’t angry at all. Instead, he picked out an insect from a clay vessel and flung it into the air.

A short while after the insect flew away, a slender girl clad in black walked in.

“Godfather, you wanted to see me?” the girl asked as she went down on one knee.
