Chapter 367 On My Account
Master Iron frowned lightly, amazed to see how Jared was unaffected by his display of power. He knew
the wave of energy he had just emitted was formidable, and most martial artists with good internal
energy would find it hard to withstand the force. He could not believe that Jared appeared totally
unfazed.
“You are indeed something, young punk! Sadly, it is me you are against today, so your fate is sealed!”
With that, he gathered all his energy, let out a roar, and threw a terrifying wave of energy toward Jared.
His disciples, once again, retreated further to get out of harm’s way.
“Is that all you are capable of? If you have nothing better to offer, I’ll be taking my leave first.” Jared
threw Master Iron a disdainful look and started walking away.
Master Iron was momentarily stunned and also embarrassed by Jared’s action. It was too humiliating to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbe looked down upon by a young punk in the face of his disciples. He could not afford to lose his
reputation and their respect.
“Die, you brat!” He charged forward furiously, bringing tremors to the ground, and threw a punch at
Jared.
Jared stopped in his track, and without even turning back, he let loose a frightening burst of energy
which caused Master Iron to tumble backward, cracking the ground in the process.
Master Iron’s face fell as he stared at Jared in disbelief. He hadn’t expected a young man like Jared
could possess such prowess.
He tried to go against Jared’s energy and move forward but failed. All he could do was root himself to
the ground to avoid falling backward. He directed all his energy to his feet to stabilize himself, sinking
his feet deep into the ground.
“Didn’t you like to smother your opponents with powerful energy? Let me give you a taste of your own
medicine.” Jared turned around and gave Master Iron a cold stare.
Suddenly, a few cars sped toward them, and Lizbeth shouted as she alighted from one of the cars after
it came to a screeching stop. “Stop! Stop it right there!”
Anthony and a big group of investigators from the Department of Justice also hurriedly alighted from
their respective cars and came running toward them.
When Jared saw that it was Lizbeth, he immediately withdrew his burst of energy to avoid hurting her.
Master Iron instantly felt the suffocating pressure lifted off him and stumbled backward.
“Are you all right, Jared?” Lizbeth anxiously asked.
“I’m fine. What brings you here?” he asked, puzzled.
“Well, when I woke up, I found you and the two men from the Jantz family missing. I was worried you
will go stir up trouble with the Jantzs, so I contacted General Long and wanted to go to your rescue!”
Lizbeth gave him a dirty look and grumbled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing how worried she looked, Jared felt apologetic. “I only sent the two men back to the Jantz family.
I did not stir up any trouble. Sorry to have caused you to worry,” he said.
“It’s okay. What matters most is that you’re fine!” Lizbeth was relieved. Next, she turned to Master Iron
and explained, “Master Iron, I was there when Jared killed Jason. I can vouch that Jason was the one
who started it first. He even tried to attack me. Jared killed him out of self-defense, so you should not
put the blame on Jared!”
Master Iron threw her a dirty look and said, “Ms. Grange, on account of your grandpa, I would not make
things difficult for you. However, you need to stay out of this. I must finish him off today!” There was a
crazy look of menace in his eyes as he said that.
“Master Iron, as Lizbeth had explained, it was Jason who started it first. Jared was not at fault. I know it
must be painful for you to lose a disciple, and it is understandable for you to be angry. But can you do
me a favor and let Jared off the hook? I will get him to apologize to you!” Anthony stepped forward and
tried to appease him.
Anthony was in charge of the Department of Justice, and with his status, most people would not want
to make things difficult for him.
