The flame in Jared’s palm grew increasingly intense. Subsequently, as Jared lowered his palm, the flame enveloped Jorvan’s body.
“Resurrecting the dead with flames? I’ve never heard of such a thing.”
“There’s a lot you’ve never heard of. Did you really think they would let you in on a method to bring back the dead?”
“Can someone come back to life when their body is almost entirely burnt?”
Everyone watched the scene unfold, whispering among themselves. Toben, too, was visibly shocked, watching as Jorvan’s body began to shrink until it was ultimately reduced to ashes.
“Where is he? Weren’t you supposed to bring back to life?” Toben demanded.
“Sorry, my mistake. I apologize…” Jared flashed a grin!
“Ah… How dare you!” Toben was on the brink of losing his mind.
The crowd couldn’t help but let out a collective gasp, their eyes turning toward Jared, filled with nothing but contempt.
However, Jared simply didn’t care at all.
On the other hand, in a low voice, Stefan grumbled, “F*ck, even I was fooled!”
After finished speaking, Stefan vanished in an instant, only to reappear inside the tavern.
At that moment, members of the Thorne Sect had lost their minds. It was one thing to kill Jorvan, but now, even his body had been incinerated, leaving nothing of his remains.
A group of members from the Thorne Sect roared as they charged at Jared.
Jared’s expression turned icy as looked at them. “Do you want to end up like Elder Jorvan?”
With just one sentence, the members of the Thorne Sect halted in their tracks before slowly retreating out of fear.
With a trembling body, Toben said, “Jared, you’re an Ultimate Realm cultivator, how could you have no shame?!”
“l have no shame?” Jared let out a snigger. “You guys are really something, bringing dozens from the Three Unified Sects to confront me, and you call that fair?”
“Elder Jorvan has a cultivation level that’s higher than mine, and knew full well that I had just gone through a fierce battle, yet still insisted on ganging up on me. Is that what you call having integrity?”
“Ha! On top of that, you barred me from using weapons and imposed all sorts of restrictions. Is this what you call having a sense of shame? The most shameless ones, I’d say, are you guys from the Three Unified Sects.”
Jared’s words left Toben utterly dumbfounded.
“No matter what, you must die today. Otherwise, the Three Unified Sects would be utterly humiliated!” With a furious roar, Toben was about to lead his men to attack Jared.
“The Three Unified Sects are nothing but insects. You don‘t even have an pride to speak of!”
At that moment, a roar of anger echoed through the air, followed by a tremor that shook the entire void. One after another, figures began to appear on the horizon!
Corrado had arrived with Infinides and the experts from Twilight Imperial City.
When saw Corrado arrive, Toben’s face drastically changed.
Upon seeing the situation, Catalina and Fraser immediately leaped into the air and rushed to Corrado’s side.
“Father, the Three Unified Sects are shameless, bullying the weak with their numbers and resorting to a war of attrition against Jared. You must teach them a lesson!” Catalina said to Corrado.
Just moments ago, Catalina couldn’t bear to watch the unfolding scene any longer. It was unfortunate that was too weak to be of help to Jared.
Now that father had arrived, there was no longer a need for to endure.
“Catalina, your father would have stepped in even if you didn’t mention it. How could possibly stand by while his future son-in-law is being bullied?” Infinides stroked his beard as spoke.
“Master!” Catalina’s face turned crimson in embarrassment.
Jared watched as Corrado rushed over, a faint smile playing on his lips. His confidence was bolstered. If Toben had attacked earlier, Jared would not have been able to hold his ground.
The continuous battles had drained Jared of much of his strength, and needed to replenish it first.
Inside the tavern, Stefan glanced at Corrado and slowly said, “The folks from Twilight Imperial City have arrived too. The Three Unified Sects are done for…”
“Mr. Montes, should we intervene?” Red Ghost asked.
Now that the Three Unified Sects had joined with the Four Hell Palace. It made them part of the latter. If danger arose, Four Hell Palace couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
“Just watch for now. There’s no need to intervene. These people haven’t fully submitted yet,” Stefan said nonchalantly.
