Chapter 1144 Leave


    At that moment, a few people were quickly approaching the deserted and ttened Gardner Manor.


    They were none other than Jericho from the Rowling family and his men as they were on their way to


    check out the situation.


    Jericho thought he had gone to the wrong ce when he saw the Gardner manor, which was now


    completely empty.


    If it weren’t for the looming Pentacarna Tower at a distance, Jericho would not have recognized that


    ce.


    Everything was still fine the day before as a lively construction process took ce.


    That day, nothing was left in that area, not even a piece of debris. There was only ayer of powdery


    dust on the floor.


    Jericho led his men into the Gardner Manor’s vicinity. The moment they stepped foot into the perimeter,


    Jared, who was cultivating inside Pentacarna Tower, opened his eyes instantaneously.


    Jared had set up an arcane array around the surroundings of the Gardner Manor when he began


    cultivating, so he could sense any intruder’s presence in a split second.


    Otherwise, it would be very dangerous if someone attempted tounch a sneak attack on him amidst


    his cultivation.

    Jared released his spiritual sense and detected Jericho and the others, who were drawing closer to


    Pentacarna Tower.


    The party consisted of five people, all of whom were Martial Arts Grandmasters.


    Among them, Jericho was even close to bing a Top Level Martial Arts Grandmaster.


    “Who are these people?” Jared frowned slightly as he was puzzled by the sudden intrusion of those


    strangers.


    He could sense that Jericho and the others were not members of the Norton family. Moreover, Skr


    could not have possibly gathered his subordinates so quickly from Jadeborough.


    Not to mention, even a Top Level Martial Arts Grandmaster like Skr was not Jared’s opponent, so


    why would he assign this party of weaker men over to suffer inevitable deaths?


    Jared slowly got up and walked out of the tower.


    Meanwhile, Jericho and his men were also moving closer to Pentacarna Tower.


    “Mr. Jericho, why did the Gardner Manor suddenly turn into this state? I realized that this powder on the


    floor is probably the product of the buildings that used to stand here after the structures were


    disintegrated by martial energy.”


    “How insanely strong is that person to be capable of demolishing this vast manor to such a condition?”


    “Look at that tower, guys. That tower is still in perfect condition. I reckon something must be wrong with


    that tower.”


    The Rowling family’s henchmen spoke in bewilderment.


    Jericho nced at them. “Shut up if you all do not want to die…”


    His words sessfully rendered the others silent.


    Soon, Jericho and his party arrived at the foot of Pentacarna Tower. Jericho noticed the silhouette of a


    man standing underneath the tower from afar.


    Jared had also noticed them. He fixated his gaze on Jericho.


    Jericho stepped closer and was a little stunned to discover that person standing below the tower was


    Jared. However, he pretended not to recognize Jared and asked, “Who are you?”


    Jared replied casually, “I’m the owner of this manor. Why are you all trespassing my property?”


    Jericho suddenly sneered. “You are the owner of this manor? This ce belonged to the Gardner


    family. Now that Karl is dead, we are here to take over his properties because he owed us, the Rowling


    family, money. Don’t tell me you’re a member of the Gardner family?”


    Jared shook his head. “I’m not a member of the Gardner family. Nheless, this manor no longer


    belongs to them. You all should hurry up and leave…”


    “You’re too arrogant, brat. No one has dared to deny the things we want thus far!” one of the Rowling


    family’s henchmen bellowed at Jared angrily.


    Jared merely nced coldly at the person who piped up. “I’ve said this. This ce is now my territory,


    so I don’t care if you’re from the Rowling family or not. Just get lost if you do not want to die…”


    “You…”


    The few Rowling family subordinates were infuriated and wanted to make a move on Jared but were


    stopped by Jericho.


    The others might not be aware, but Jericho knew if they shed with Jared now, they would most likely


    be defeated.


    “We are members of the Rowling family from Marsingfill. Our master, Mr. Coby, is ranked fifth on the


    Sage Leaderboard. I hope you—”


    Jericho wanted to threaten Jared with Coby’s reputation. However, before he could finish his sentence,


    Jared interjected, “I’ve told you. I don’t care about the Rowling family or any other family for that matter.


    Get lost if you do not wish to die…”
