Jared’s palm stopped only a few centimeters away from Xandros’ head. If Lucian had spoken up one


    secondte, Xandros’ head would’ve exploded.


    “You have a deal. Release my son, and you can have the Divine Bow.” As Lucian spoke, he presented


    the Divine Bow. Jared’s eyes glinted when the Divine Bow was finally within his sight.


    Then, hemanded, “Hand the Divine Bow over to me first. Then, I’ll release your son. Considering


    you have an army with you while I’m all alone, I’m not that stupid to free your son first.” “What if you go


    against your word after I hand the Divine Bow to you?” questioned Lucian.


    “Do you think you have any other options right now? You have no other choice but to believe me. If you


    don’t, this deal is off. I’ll kill your son and hang his body on the walls to boost morale, spat Jared before


    turning around, preparing to leave with Xandros.


    Lucian hesitated because he didn’t want to hand the Divine Bow over to Jared just like that.


    Remus approached Lucian and said, “While Jared is powerful, he’s alone, King Lucian. He can have the


    Divine Bow first. I doubt he can pull one over us. After we rescue Mr. Xandros, we’llmence our


    attack on the city immediately. The Divine Bow will return to us either way once we destroy the city.”


    Upon hearing that, Lucian gritted his teeth, then turned to Jared. “Fine. I’ll hand you the Divine Bow first.


    However, if you fail to keep your word and refuse to free my son, I will tear you into pieces!” Instead of


    replying, Jared pped Xandros at few more times. His reaction to every instance of Lucian’s threat was


    to hit Xandros.


    Xandros cried in agony. As infuriated as Lucian was, there was nothing he could do. He couldn’t afford to


    since his son’s life was still in Jared’s hands.


    Seeing that his son was pped again, Lucian didn’t have the nerve to speak.


    He tossed the Divine Bow toward Jared. Jared stretched his hand and grabbed ther Divine Bow.


    As he sensed the aura pulsing from the weapon, he was overjoyed. Atst, the Divine Bow has returned


    to me! Gazing at Jared, Lucian asked, “I’ve given you the Divine Bow, Jared. Can you release my son


    now?” “Of course. I’m a man of my word. Now that I’ve received the Divine Bow, your son is free to go.”


    Jared promptly tossed Xandros toward Lucian.


    Upon seeing that, Lucian leaped into the air, caught Xandros, andnded back on the ground.


    Concurrently, Jared rapidly retreated back into the city. Once Lucian settled Xandros down, he roared,


    “Don’t think you can escape, brat!” Swiftly, Remus blocked Lucian’s path. “You mustn’t chase after him,


    King Lucian. There’s no doubt arcane arrays are installed around Imperial Beast City.


    If you follow him, you’ll be in danger. If anything happens to you, we’ll be left rudderless. I think we


    should stick to our n of invading the city. Once the city falls, they won’t be able to escape!” Lucian


    thought about Remus’ words and found they made sense. Thus, he waved his hand. “Attack!” In an


    instant, over ten thousand soldiers marched toward Imperial Beast City.


    The invasion hadmenced.


    Yuven, who was watching from above the wall, furrowed his eyebrows.


    “Everyone, ready for battle!” When Jared heard the enemy army was advancing, he stood in his spot


    instead of running into Imperial Beast City. Quietly, he gazed at the soldiers before him.


    Everyone was dumbfounded by his inaction, unsure of what he was nning to do. They couldn’t help


    but wonder if he was going to stop the army by himself.

    “Come back, Mr. Chance!” shouted Yuven.


    “Return to us, Jared! Quickly!” “Come back!” Quinley and the others shouted. However, Jared remained


    unmoved. He put away Divine Bow, summoned Dragonyer Sword, and activated Golem Body.
