“Do you think I’m qualified?” Yelena asked.
“Not bad, you can follow me!” Jared nodded.
“I’m asking for more than they had,” Yelena told him.
“I understand. After all, array masters are highly sought after.” Jared chuckled.
Array masters were rare in the Ethereal Realm, and one at the Top Level Ultimate Realm Level Nine was practically unheard of.
“I want a hundred thousand celestial crystals,” Yelena stated.
“Yelena.” Orion frowned upon hearing that.
Wasn’t this outright extortion? Asking for a hundred thousand celestial crystals was too much.
“You want a hundred thousand celestial crystals? You’ll need to prove you’re worth it!” Jared said with a grin.
“This is my proof…” As Yelena spoke, she lightly waved her palm, and the surrounding arcane array rapidly contracted.
Everyone felt an immense pressure-the oppressive force of the power of law.
Everyone present, except for Jared, was at the Ultimate Realm Level Nine.
If even they felt the pressure, it meant this array was truly formidable!
Jared watched Yelena cast her technique, then smiled faintly and said, “Such a minor trick isn’t worth a hundred thousand.”
As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and a streak of white light shot out, striking the array.
In an instant, the massive arcane array completely collapsed, vanishing without a trace!
Yelena was stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief.
“Huh?” Her mouth hung open, unable to form words.
This was her most powerful arcane array, yet it had been broken in a single flick of his finger?
Fraser, Orion, and the others were equally shocked.
Their eyes were filled with nothing but sheer astonishment.
“Mr. Chance, you’re incredible! Are you an array master too?” Salathiell stammered in disbelief.
“I know a thing or two,” Jared replied modestly with a smile.
Yelena nearly coughed up blood. Just “a thing or two,” and he had broken her strongest array?
“Jared, not only can you fight across realms, but you’re also an alchemist and an array master. Is there anything you can’t do?”
Fraser was thoroughly impressed by Jared at this point.
“Of course! I can’t give birth to children!” Jared joked with a grin.
“No problem! Catalina can handle that. She can give birth to eight or ten children for you easily. We can’t let your good genes go to waste!” Fraser said excitedly.
Orion and the others were left completely bewildered. They had no idea how Jared became Fraser’s brother-in-law.
“Mr. Chance, these three are also Top Level Ultimate Realm Level Nine experts. They’ve come to join you. Due to their special identities, they must remain concealed for now.”
Orion gestured toward three mysterious figures in black robes. All three wore masks, hiding their true faces.
“No worries. If you follow me, I don’t care about your past-1 treat everyone equally.”
Jared waved his hand.
“Yes, yes, Mr. Chance is absolutely fair and impartial!” Salathiell quickly nodded in agreement.
“Indeed,” Theobauld also affirmed.
After all, Jared had just treated them and Fraser as equals.
“And this here is Jaxon Cardey, a renowned physical cultivator. His physical body is unmatched. No divine weapon can harm him.” Orion gestured to a burly middle-aged man.
“My physical body has been tempered by fire and slashed by ten thousand swords. That’s how I forged my indestructible physique. No divine weapon can-”

Before Jaxon could finish speaking, Jared suddenly summoned the Dragonslayer Sword and casually thrust it forward.
The blade sank several inches into Jaxon’s body, and blood immediately gushed out!
“Huh, guess your body isn’t that strong after all,” Jared remarked, pulling out his sword.
Everyone was speechless.
Jaxon stared at the wound on his body. After a brief moment of shock, he suddenly started sobbing uncontrollably.
