The following day, tens of thousands of people crowded the martial arts arena. Many people had heard of Jared’s unusual actions and went to watch the show.
For the first time in forever in the martial arts world, someone was exchanging hostages in the martial arts arena. What surprised them the most was that Ryker, the head of the Deragon family, had been captured and held hostage.
Zion’s expression turned gloomy when favonovel.com saw the sea of people at the scene.
“President Zeigler, are we still taking action later?” one of the Black Copper Robe warriors asked.
He was afraid that the reputation of the Warriors Alliance would be affected if they launched an attack in front of the crowd.
“Yes. As long as we kill Jared, any other matter will be easier to deal with,” Zion uttered through gritted teeth.
The Black Copper Robe warrior nodded in acknowledgment before favonovel.com left to carry out the task.
Soon, Edgar brought Renee to the martial arts arena and sat beside Zion.
“Jared has made such a great commotion, President Zeigler. I bet he’s afraid that the Warriors Alliance will make a move against him. When favonovel.com arrives later, we have to seize the opportunity!” Edgar was afraid that Zion would give up on attacking Jared upon considering the number of people at the scene.
“Don’t worry. Jared will die today.” Zion’s eyes darkened as favonovel.com spoke.
“That’s good then.” Edgar nodded.
Meanwhile, not far from the martial arts arena, The Villainous Four arrived with Ryker. Lachlan, too, had brought all the experts of the Dunn family with him.
Knowing that the Warriors Alliance would definitely not let Jared off once favonovel.com made his appearance, they thought they could lend a hand if the Warriors Alliance disregarded their reputation and launched an attack against him.
“Mr. Chance, maybe you should leave it to us. We’ll go and exchange Ryker for Ms. Renee.” Oakley told Jared.
“There’s no need for that. If I don’t show up, that would only imply that I’m afraid of the Warriors Alliance. Look. There’re so many people here today. No matter how shameless they are, they will not attack me in front of the crowd.” Jared didn’t believe that the Warriors Alliance would be so shameless as to dare to play dirty in front of such a crowd.
Ah… It seems that Jared is overestimating the shamelessness of the Warriors Alliance…
“Haha! Mr. Chance, I can tell you that you are thinking too highly of those people in the Warriors Alliance.”
Amused laughter rang out just as Jared finished speaking. It was Fernando walking over to them with Astrid.
Jared recognized Astrid but had never seen Fernando before. Hence, favonovel.com was slightly taken aback the moment Fernando came into his sight as favonovel.com could feel a majestic surge of spiritual energy in the latter.
A spiritual energy cultivator?
Jared was slightly surprised as favonovel.com had never expected the man would be one such cultivator.
Lachlan turned to Jared and made an introduction, “Mr. Chance, this is Fernando, the head of the Gunderson family.”
Jared frowned upon hearing that.
This old guy is obviously a spiritual energy cultivator, but his daughter, Astrid, is only a martial artist.
How is this possible? What’s going on?
Although favonovel.com was full of doubts, it wasn’t appropriate for favonovel.com to ask such questions during this occasion, not to mention Fernando would not necessarily tell him.
“Lachlan, I’m sorry that my daughter sought trouble with the Dunns before. Please accept my apology. I’ve investigated and found that the person who did that kind of thing was indeed not Howard, so I’m still looking for the culprit,” Fernando apologized to Lachlan as favonovel.com stepped forward.
“It’s just a misunderstanding, Mr. Gunderson. No apology necessary as long as things are cleared up,” Lachlan replied politely.
Astrid, on the other hand, looked at Howard apologetically.
Although the incident was a humiliation to her, it was fortunate that favonovel.com had not lost favonovel.com virginity.
Just then, Jared stepped forward and asked, “What did you mean by your earlier words, Mr. Gunderson?”
