Chapter 1534 Unnecessary Casualties
Although Jared was slightly skilled in the technique of charm, he couldn’t understand a thing when he saw that charm.
“This is from Mr. Sanders. It’ll save your life during a crucial moment.” Xavier handed that piece of charm to Jared.
“A life-saving charm? Is this thing that amazing?” Jared examined the charm after receiving it.
“Mr. Sanders said you must bring this charm with you today because you’ll face fatal danger today.”
With that, Xavier turned around and left, leaving Jared alone inside the spacious lobby.
After keeping the charm, Jared strode out of the Department of Justice.
At that moment, Theodore was already waiting for Jared at the entrance with a car, and he would be personally chauffeuring the latter.
Theodore rolled down the car window and said, “Get in the car, Mr. Chance. I’ll send you out of the city. I believe no one will dare to mess with the Department of Justice.”
Jared didn’t refuse the offer and immediately got into the vehicle. Then, the car sped off toward the outside of the city.
Right after Jared and the others left the Department of Justice, Zion received the news at once.
“Hmph! I must have Jared’s head brought to me today.” Zion snorted.
Gilbert, standing beside Zion, remained silent. With a tiger head sword strapped on his back, he spun on his heel, got into a car, and departed.
Meanwhile, in the Jadeborough suburb, Theodore halted the car before ordering his men to survey the surroundings. Only then did he speak to Jared. “Mr. Chance, you may get out of the vehicle now. There’s no one around.”
Jared nodded and exited the vehicle.
However, he knitted his brows the next second as a grimace spread across his face.
Taking in his facial expression, Theodore hastily asked, “What’s the matter, Mr. Chance? I already instructed my subordinates to scout around this area.”
“General Jackson, all of you must leave as fast as you can. Do not linger here any longer.”
With that, Jared lifted his head a little and shifted his gaze onto a nearby mountain peak.
Theodore swiftly looked in the same direction and noticed someone standing on the mountaintop.
Soon, that person jumped, leaping directly off the top of the mountain.
His body glided in mid-air like a bird for some distance before finally landing steadily in front of Jared and the others.
Although that person was putting forth his best effort to hold back his aura, Jared could still sense his overwhelming presence.
The frown on Jared’s face deepened as his countenance turned a few shades darker.
When Theodore saw that person before them, his expression changed drastically, and he stumbled a few steps backward uncontrollably.
“G-Gilbert Feigenbaum!” Theodore started to hyperventilate as colors drained from his face.
The other members of the Department of Justice also backed away one after the other as if they had come face-to-face with a demon.
Witnessing their facial expressions, Jared instantly understood that the man in front of him was very dangerous and terrifying. Otherwise, a General of the Department of Justice like Theodore wouldn’t have reacted that way.
“General Jackson, who is this man?” Jared asked softly.
“Mr. Chance, this man is called Gilbert Feigenbaum. He was the most notorious Demonic Cultivator in the martial arts world twenty years ago, but he should have died twenty years ago. How is he showing up here all of a sudden?” Theodore uttered with a trembling voice.
He was already an infamous Demonic Cultivator twenty years ago? In that case, this man’s capabilities must be honed beyond measure now.
Gilbert pointed at Jared and uttered coldly, “This man named Jared will have to stay. The others can get lost at once. I’m in a good mood today, so I don’t feel like murdering additional people.”
Jared told Theodore, “General Jackson, you all should leave now instead of remaining here and adding to unnecessary casualties.”
“Mr. Chance, you need to be extra careful. Gilbert was already a Martial Arts Marquis twenty years ago. It is very likely that he has broken through to the next level and is now a Greater Martial Arts Marquis,” Theodore reminded Jared.
