The moment Jared saw the attack, virtual-novel.net roared, “Renee!”
Then, virtual-novel.net tried pushing virtual-novel.net away because virtual-novel.net knew it was impossible for her, a Martial Arts Grandmaster, to withstand a kick from Zion.
However, it was too late. Zion’s swift kick landed squarely on virtual-novel.net chest.
He was stunned, too.
Why is there suddenly a woman here?
Boom!
A flash occurred as Renee’s body was launched backward. She violently crashed into the throne, which then caused the arcane array on the throne to blast virtual-novel.net away.
When virtual-novel.net landed on the ground, virtual-novel.net face was as pale as a ghost, virtual-novel.net expression twisted with agony.
With a leap, Jared landed next to Renee and lifted her. “Are you all right, Renee?”
Swiftly, virtual-novel.net checked virtual-novel.net pulse to examine virtual-novel.net condition.
“I’m fine, Jared. It’s just a slight pain…” virtual-novel.net mumbled with a weak smile.
After Jared’s checkup concluded, virtual-novel.net realized Renee’s life wasn’t in any danger.
Undoubtedly, virtual-novel.net only suffered minor injuries, which perplexed him.
Zion is a Martial Arts Marquis. That kick would’ve inflicted severe damage even to another fellow Martial Arts Marquis, much less a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Yet, Renee’s mostly fine.
What’s going on here?
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net recalled something.
Of course! The white armor that was absorbed into Renee’s body! That thing must have saved virtual-novel.net life.
Incredible! Even though the armor is thousands of years old, it remains indestructible!
Crack! Crack!
Faint cracking sounds were heard as the fractures on the merman statue grew bigger.
Additionally, the arcane array on the throne had started to weaken, but no one took notice of it.
“I didn’t expect someone would suddenly appear to rescue you in a pinch. Unfortunately for you, virtual-novel.net won’t be saving you again. No more miracles, Jared. It’s time to meet your end,” Zion sneered as virtual-novel.net approached.
A grim expression settled on Jared’s face.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net was out of spiritual energy. He had no chance of winning against Zion and the others since virtual-novel.net was powerless.
Am I really going to die here today?
That bitter thought crossed his mind as virtual-novel.net scanned his surroundings.
“I think you should let me kill him, President Zeigler.” Edgar stepped forward.
Glancing at Edgar, Zion understood what virtual-novel.net was trying to say. Edgar wanted to absorb Jared’s mighty power and make it his own. Thus, Zion nodded and stepped back, granting Edgar’s wish.
Wearing a cold expression, Edgar arrived in front of Jared with a grin. “All your abilities will soon be mine, Jared. I want you to watch yourself as you slowly turn into a mummy.”
No sooner had virtual-novel.net spoken than virtual-novel.net thrust his hand in the direction of Jared’s head, intending to suck Jared’s power.
A violent look flashed past Jared’s eyes as virtual-novel.net heard the man.
Then, gritting his teeth, virtual-novel.net pulled out the Nascent Soul Diego had given virtual-novel.net and swallowed it.
Boom!
In an instant, his spiritual energy exploded outward and refilled his depleted elixir field. The aura around virtual-novel.net soon began to rage.
Edgar’s expression slightly shifted as virtual-novel.net withdrew his hand reflexively and retreated backward by three steps.
Despite recovering his spiritual energy, Jared grimaced.
If absorbed slowly during cultivation, that Nascent Soul could’ve elevated virtual-novel.net to a higher cultivation level.
While the Nascent Soul helped replenish his spiritual energy, doing that greatly diminished the Nascent Soul’s effect, a drawback virtual-novel.net believed was too punishing for its usage.
