Chapter 1182 Capable
The scene featuring six identical Jareds standing together shocked everyone.
Lachlan was the only one who remained unfazed.
“How dare you try to fool me with such illusions?”
Lachlan was not at all bothered by Jared’s Nine Shadows.
Jared stayed quiet. He felt that uttering any more words at that moment would be a waste of energy.
“Break!”
Jared jumped up, and his clones followed.
Six similar Jareds floated in midair like gods.
Then, two slashes of dazzling sword energy were unleashed.
The two strikes combined into one and plunged toward Lachlan.
That stroke of sword energy sliced through the air as if it was ripping the very fabric of space apart.
Blazing spiritual fire encased the sword energy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuch unnerving sword energy caused many members of the Dunn family to scamper away. Most onlookers could
not even stand the scorching heat from the spiritual fire on the sword energy.
Yet, when this fearsome sword energy crashed into Lachlan’s aura, a similar scene from before appeared.
The sword energy vanished without a trace right after making contact with the aura, as if it had never existed.
If it weren’t for the residual heat lingering in the atmosphere, no one would have believed Jared had cast such
terrifying sword energy earlier.
“You are just a Martial Arts Grandmaster. No matter how many magical items you have, they are all insignificant
before me,” Lachlan said calmly.
With that, he waved his arm at Jared, using his hand as a substitute for a sword.
A gash of light cut through the aura around him.
Then, the same frightening sword energy propelled in Jared’s direction.
Having experienced it once before, Jared had prepared himself this time around.
He hastily stepped aside and dodged the sword energy. Still, part of the sword energy grazed his back.
With that, a deep gash was left on Jared’s back.
A few pieces of golden scales fell off his body and disappeared.
Jared grimaced as he tumbled from midair. Although he had avoided a direct hit from the sword energy, that attack
had left him in a pathetic state.
He stared at Lachlan intently, not daring to begin another assault recklessly because his every attempt to harm
Lachlan would only reflect on himself.
Sensing Jared’s idleness, Lachlan snickered at him. “What’s the matter? Is that all you’ve got? I really don’t know
the source of your confidence just now. It seems like I’ve overestimated you to have wasted an energy-constraining
pill on you. Still, I couldn’t believe that pill was fake. I’ll settle the score with those people sooner or later. Now, if
you hand over the draconic essence, I can grant you a swift death.”
“Come and take it yourself if you’re so capable.”
Jared’s eyes brimmed with fury while a stony expression took over his face.
“All right!”
After saying that, Lachlan’s figure turned into a blur, and he appeared in front of Jared the next second.
Before Jared could even make sense of how Lachlan suddenly arrived in front of him, he was already hit in the
chest by the latter.
Jared was sent flying backward and did not come to a halt until he crashed heavily into a stone wall.
It was evident from the dent on his chest that his ribs had broken.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis Golem Body was as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of Lachlan’s offense.
That was the difference between a Martial Arts Grandmaster and a Martial Arts Marquis.
Talent or technique might be sufficient to compensate for the difference between sub-ranks or skill deficits between
two martial artists of the same rank.
However, the imbalance between ranks was a chasm that could not be crossed.
Only by becoming a Martial Arts Marquis could a martial artist understand and comprehend new skills and
techniques.
Jared had yet to achieve the rank of Semi Martial Arts Marquis. If he were a Semi Martial Arts Marquis, perhaps he
would not have ended up in that wretched a state when facing Lachlan.
He picked himself up off the floor with much difficulty. Despite the injuries he sustained, Jared remained unyielding
and determined.
He would not admit defeat as long as he lived.
Seeing Jared standing up again, Lachlan could not help but sigh. “You’re so full of potential, yet you have the heart
of a proud lion. Since you will not allow others to use you, the only thing that awaits you is death.”
With that, he leaped up, and a sword suddenly appeared in his hand. Then, Lachlan swung the sword at Jared’s
torso.
