Chapter 1225 So Arrogant


    “Mr. Norton,” L greeted Skr deferentially after walking over to the man.


    When Jared saw that, incredulity brimmed in his eyes.


    No matter what, the Dunn and Norton families are both prestigious families in Jadeborough, on equal


    footing. Besides, L is older, so his status is far higher than Skr’s. As such, he shouldn’t be


    showing thetter this much deference!


    “Go and kill Jared. Remember to leave him whole, for there are things on him which I want!” Skr


    ordered.


    L was stunned for a moment before he slowly cast his gaze at Jared, wearing a somewhat


    conflicted expression on his face.


    “Why, you want to go against my orders?”


    As Skr clocked the man’s hesitance, his expression went chilly. “Don’t forget your current identity.”


    His words radiated arrogance, for he needed to showcase his authority before the many martial arts


    families.


    If even the Dunn family, one of the wealthiest families in Jadeborough, were to obey him to the letter,


    other families wouldn’t dare go against him.

    The fury within L zed all the hotter, but he didn’t dare say anything contrary because Howard


    was in Skr’s hands. He had no choice but to relent.


    “Of course not!”


    L appeared exceedingly obedient. After saying that, he ambled toward Jared.


    Jared gaped at him in utter surprise.


    He couldn’t believe that the patriarch of the Dunn family would submit to a younger man like Skr.


    “Forgive me, Jared. I’ve got no choice either! When you’ve crossed the great divide, I’ll light a memorial


    candle for you.”


    Right after L said that, he unleashed the full force of his aura.


    The aura of a Martial Arts Marquis rendered the Martial Arts Grandmasters pale inparison.


    The moment Jared sensed the aura emanating from the man, his heart sank.


    He knew that he was doomed.


    If he weren’t heavily injured, he might be able to hold his own against L.


    In fact, there was a strong probability of him defeating the man. After all, his capabilities had


    skyrocketed dozens-fold.


    Right then, however, even an ordinary Grandmaster could finish him off, much less a Martial Arts


    Marquis.


    Gazing at L before him, Jared slowly closed his eyes and awaited death.


    L lifted his hand slowly. He didn’t want to do this, for he knew that if Howard were to learn that he


    took Jared’s life, his son would never forgive him.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    s, if he were to balk, Skr would definitely make a move against his son. He had no choice.


    Never had I imagined that I’d end up in such a pathetic situation. Perhaps this is karma!


    “Do you have anyst words, Jared?” he inquired.


    His hand was lifted, but it remained suspended in mid-air for a long while.


    “Make your move.”


    Jared kept his eyes closed. Anyst words no longer hold any significance.


    “Hurry up and kill him!” Skr roared, his brows knitting together.


    L had no other recourse. His palm emitted a faint white mist. In the next heartbeat, he swung his


    hand at Jared’s head.


    At once, the whistle of wind echoed in Jared’s ears.


    He knew that he was going to meet his maker soon.


    Unexpectedly, a burst of unrivaled martial energy shot forward just when L’s palm was about to


    make contact with the man’s head.


    Jared opened his eyes, only to see L, who was in front of him, flung backward like a kite with a


    snapped string.


    At that, everyone’s eyes went as wide as saucers.


    After all, L was a Martial Arts Marquis.


    Yet, he was sent flying so easily.


    “Who did that? Show yourself!” Skr bellowed, his face as ck as thunder.


    “Is everyone in the martial arts world so arrogant nowadays that no one has any regard for the


    authorities anymore?”


    Slowly, Mr. Sanders walked out, followed by Theodore.


    At the sight of him, everyone was shocked.


    “I didn’t know you came, Mr. Sanders. Please pardon me.”


    No matter how haughty Skr was, he didn’t dare show the slightest temper before Mr. Sanders.


    Instead, he hastily humbled himself before the man.


    “Mr. Sanders.”


    All the patriarchs of the martial arts families likewise greeted the man respectfully.


    Despite their background as martial arts families, they were nothing in front of the authorities.
