“How… How could this be possible?”
Maison couldn’t believe what was happening
“Mr. Maison!” Rowan stared blankly, only daring to call out loudly, not daring to make a single move.
Where did that beam of white light originate from?
It wasn’t clear, and no one knew.
Jared watched Maison, his gaze icy as if he saw right through him. “I warned you,” he said, “but you just wouldn’t listen…”
Yelena and Jaxon stared at Jared, their eyes wide with an expression of utter surprise etched across their faces.
“Wow! Is Mr. Chance really that impressive?”
“He truly is extraordinary…”
These two had no idea that Arthur had boosted the prosperity of Allardland.
Orion and Cassian simply shared a knowing smile. They had spent a considerable amount of time in Allardland and were well aware that no acts of violence were permitted within its boundaries.
“What’s this supposed to mean? Even if an immortal were to visit Allardland, they’d have to behave themselves. Otherwise, they’d face death…”
At that moment, Bernard spoke with unparalleled satisfaction.
As the king of Allardland, his reign was a sanctuary within the Ethereal Realm. Anyone who dared to act out of line in Allardland was simply courting disaster.
Bernard’s words left Yelena and the others utterly astonished.
Even immortals would face destruction. Allardland is really incredible!
“Is this the work of your secret ally?” Maison asked Jared, his gaze steady on him.
“No!” Jared shook his head.
“No?” Maison frowned.
“Had Mr. Sanders taken matters into his own hands, you’d have been dust in the wind by now. What you’re experiencing is merely a bit of residual prosperity left by Mr. Sanders!”
Jared spoke truthfully.
“Remarkable…” At that moment, Maison had to admit that the expert behind Jared was truly impressive.
“We’re leaving, and we’ll never trouble you again…”
Maison no longer possessed the initial ambition he once had. At this moment, all he wanted was to leave this place.
“All right…” Jared nodded.
Maison, bearing the weight of his severe injuries, slowly retreated. Then, he turned around, intending to leave.
Upon seeing the situation, Jared swiftly raised his hand and struck.
Swoosh!
The Dragonslayer Sword unleashed a brilliant flash, slicing off Maison’s head in a single swipe.
Maison’s head was thrown high in the air, its eyes glaring at Jared in anger.
“Do you think this is a hotel? Coming and going as you please?”
Jared gave a cold chuckle.
He had just voiced out the words of Tennyson.
“Maison!” Upon seeing his elder brother’s head severed, Quenric erupted in a furious roar.
“Mr. Maison!” Rowan’s face was filled with sorrow and indignation. He then turned to Jared and questioned, “Didn’t you agree with Mr. Maison that you would let us leave?”
“All is fair in war…” Jared uttered these words with an air of nonchalance.
Maison’s body had fallen heavily to the ground.
Jared then moved to stand before Maison, beginning to search the body for the item pouch.
Quenric and Rowan watched this scene unfold. Although they were seething with anger, no one dared to make a move.
“The Haverford family really is wealthy…”
Jared looked at Maison’s item pouch, a smile spreading across his face.
Rowan merely glanced at Maison’s lifeless body with his crew, then turned around and left.
If we don’t leave now, I’m afraid we might lose our chance to escape!
Upon noticing the situation, Tennyson also turned and left. The moment Maison was pierced by the white light, Tennyson had already turned and walked away.
Quenric, on the other hand, was filled with resentment, his teeth grinding in frustration.
“Let’s go, Mr. Quenric. We’ll have our chance to avenge Mr. Maison later!”
Rowan quickly whisked Quenric away, and they soon vanished from sight.
Everyone had left, and the skies above Allardland had returned to tranquility once again.
“Mr. Chance, why didn’t you kill all those people?”
Bewildered, Yelena turned to Jared and questioned.
“I wanted to kill them, but I just wasn’t the one calling the shots!”
Jared was at his wits’ end. These guys were beyond his ability to handle. Only Arthur stepping in could resolve the situation.
Whether or not Arthur decided to act was beyond Jared’s control.
“I suppose after this time, those people from the Tenth Hall will have to behave themselves!”
Orion let out a sigh of relief.
“This time, thanks to everyone’s help. Let’s share these items among us!”
After Jared finished speaking, he pulled out Maison’s item pouch, revealing all sorts of resources from within.
