Chapter 497 The Heavens Smile Upon Us
Jared’s zen-ness came across as a massive slight in the view of the Fergusons’ Grandmaster. With both fists
extended, the Grandmaster’s intimidating aura increased in intensity several-fold and shrouded Jared outright, as
though he meant to crush the latter with it.
“Too weak…” Jared shook his head in disapproval.
In the next split second, Jared transformed himself into the epicenter of a massive eruption of energy that
mushroomed out in all directions with a simple tap of his right foot. That Grandmaster’s expression fell when he
suddenly felt himself being assailed by this overwhelming tsunami of energy.
The Fergusons’ Grandmaster tried to evade but to no avail. Sent flying like an untethered kite by this uncanny force,
he then fell heavily to the ground, motionless!
Without having exchanged even one blow, a fighter of the Grandmaster’s caliber was struck dead, just like that.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat instantly got Isaiah in a rightfully severe mood and even put a frown upon Bruce’s brow!
“Fantastic. Simply marvelous…”
Upon witnessing this, Jayden exclaimed in sheer delight. Never had he ever expected that Jared would possess such
potency.
“Why have you kept such a formidable fighter hidden if you had him within your ranks all this while?” Christopher
asked Jayden.
The latter had a look of embarrassment about him for he did not know how to answer that. This was because he
had no idea Jared was that capable, to begin with.
“You ought to be convinced that Jared was the one who saved me by now, right, Dad? He caught the bullet that
went off last night. It would have come straight at me otherwise!”
When Tessa related to Jayden the events from the night before, Jayden’s look was that of startlement followed by a
gnawing sense of dread. Would she not have been struck by the bullet had Jared not been beside her?
“Blessed with Mr. Chance’s presence, the heavens smile upon the Snyders. Hahaha…” Jayden laughed haughtily.
Having the ability to catch bullets with one’s own bare hands would propel one into the league of immortals. Who
could possibly rival that?
The sight of Jayden’s delight became a juxtaposition against Isaiah’s own dismay.
“I ask of you, Mr. Mikkelson, to tear this kid to pieces!” Isaiah seethed between gritted teeth.
“With pleasure!” Bruce strode forth and regarded Jared frostily. “For one as young as yourself to boast of such
ability is a rarity. Walk away now, and I may spare you your life yet!”
“Are you afraid that you may not be able to match up with me? Seeing how it couldn’t have been easy to reach
your level of attainment, I’d rather not kill you. So, you can jolly well buzz off!” the smiling Jared said stonily.
“What’s that, you rascal? Me, afraid?” Bruce was instantly livid. “I’d say, that even if you were to possess the
prowess of a Grandmaster right now, you’d still be nothing in my esteem, for I’m the one in command inside of my
arcane array!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith that, Bruce’s eyeballs flipped. The black of his eyeballs disappeared in the same instant, turning his pupils
white once more.
“A good thing then that I know a thing or two about arcane arrays too. What do you say to us having a little fun with
it together?” Jared replied with a faint smile.
“What? Might you be adept in both the arcane and martial arts as well?” asked Bruce in astonishment.
“Do not be taken in by his tomfoolery, Mr. Mikkelson. How could one who’s as wet behind the ears as he possibly
knows that much?” reminded Isaiah from the side.
That seemed to make a certain sense to Bruce. Hence, with both hands in front of him, he weaved out layers upon
layers of white fog until it had Jared completely surrounded!
As the fog spread, so did its thickness amplify. Soon, Jared and the Grandmaster himself became enveloped within,
visually cut off from everyone from the outside.
“This is not good…”
Jayden was taken aback at this development because he was aware of Bruce’s elite mastery of magecraft. How is
Jared to battle an opponent that he cannot even see?
