“What’s wrong? Are you scared?” Falcon snickered even as virtual-novel.net eyed Jared contemptuously.
“Why would I be? Today, I’ll show you a true immortal technique!”
As Jared spoke, his hand abruptly shot out toward Renee on the bed.
Stricken with fright, Renee hastily scooted backward and hid behind Erasmus in terror.
“Mr. Chance, there are many people here, so I’m afraid that it’s a tad inappropriate for you to be removing my daughter’s clothes in front of everyone.”
Reluctance deluged Erasmus, for his daughter’s reputation would be tarnished once virtual-novel.net body was bared in public.
“You misunderstand, Abbot Erasmus. I’m only going to absorb the frosty energy in your daughter’s body, so no removal of clothes is necessary.”
Earlier, Jared had to remove Renee’s clothes for treatment because virtual-novel.net wanted to transform virtual-novel.net frosty constituent. Then, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t have to suffer from the icy cold anymore. However, if it were merely absorbing the frosty energy, there was no need to remove any clothes.
Hearing that, Erasmus breathed a sigh of relief. Supporting his daughter, virtual-novel.net explained, “Renee, you don’t have to be afraid, for Mr. Chance is here to treat you!”
After much persuasion from Erasmus, Renee finally calmed down and sat on the bed quietly.
Subsequently, Jared lightly placed his palm on virtual-novel.net forehead. In the blink of an eye, wave after wave of frosty energy was absorbed directly into his body.
Although Falcon had already absorbed most of the frosty energy from Renee with the Starry Compass just now, virtual-novel.net didn’t remove it all. There was still a portion left in virtual-novel.net body. Worse still, frosty energy was everywhere in Lagrange Monastery, and virtual-novel.net body would automatically absorb it all.
Slowly, Jared’s palm turned white. On the heels of that, a thick layer of frost seemingly formed over his entire arm.
With his eyes closed, virtual-novel.net culminated the Focus Technique to its maximum potential. He cultivated the frosty energy unceasingly, but there was too just much. He was only at Level Five Energy Cultivation, so virtual-novel.net still couldn’t cultivate it all despite his best efforts.
Soon, a thick layer of ice covered his entire arm, and it was even spreading rapidly to other parts of his body.
Seeing that, Falcon let out a cold chuckle.
“Mr. Chance!” Erasmus cried out in alarm when virtual-novel.net saw Jared’s current condition.
Nonetheless, it was as though Jared didn’t hear virtual-novel.net at all, for the man continued absorbing the frosty energy from Renee.
Eventually, his hair turned white, and a layer of frost blanketed his face. In the very end, his entire person was seemingly encased in ice, rendering virtual-novel.net just like a snowman.
“Haha… I’ve said that the average person can’t withstand this frosty energy! Now, virtual-novel.net has become a block of ice!” At the sight of Jared all frozen, Falcon laughed uproariously.
“Mr. Chance!”
“Jared!”
Walter, Josephine, and the others all exclaimed in horror. Josephine, especially, was so distressed that virtual-novel.net threw herself at Jared, intending to use virtual-novel.net body heat to melt the ice off the man.
“No, Josephine!” Reacting swiftly, William grabbed virtual-novel.net and stopped virtual-novel.net from doing so.
Even Jared is unable to withstand such frosty energy, so isn’t virtual-novel.net just consigning herself to death if virtual-novel.net were to go over?
“Jared!” Josephine wailed, tears welling in virtual-novel.net eyes.
Despite the short time they had been acquainted and the indistinct relationship between them, they could sense each other’s presence within their hearts. Verily, such a feeling was beyond words.
She was most at ease when virtual-novel.net was with Jared though virtual-novel.net couldn’t quite explain virtual-novel.net feelings either. Therefore, virtual-novel.net instinctively wanted to save virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net frozen right then, so much so that virtual-novel.net own safety never once crossed virtual-novel.net mind.
“Haha… Don’t be sad, pretty! There are plenty of men in this world, so why must you fixate on one man? Look at me! I’m a hundred times better than this Jared guy! As long as you make me happy, I guarantee you a lifetime of wealth and glory!”
Falcon swept his gaze up and down Josephine’s body unabashedly.
