“It’s funny how you're still so worried about your son, David! He has long abandoned you and ran off. I think he's probably long gone by now!” someone shouted among the spectating crowd.
Only then did David realize that Skylar had already fled. Jared just found out as well.
All this time, Jared had been focusing on David, and he did not pay much attention to Skylar. He never thought that the latter would scurry off.
When David noticed that his son had run away, instead of getting angry, he laughed out loud. “Well, at least the Norton family will still have survivors.”
“It doesn't matter where your son ran off to, be it to the ends of the earth, for I will still take his life,” Jared said in a cold tone, staring straight at David.
“You won't be able to kill my son because everyone here is going to die!” David roared maliciously.
What followed next was David's aura starting to swell as a bright light pierced through his skin and radiated out from his chest.
It came from the golden elixir that was located inside the body of a martial artist. Only when a martial artist reached the Martial Arts Marquis would they be able to cultivate the golden elixir. However, only one out of a hundred martial artists was capable of doing this.
Suddenly, a large force that could very well destroy everything in its vicinity started to condense onto the golden elixir in David's chest.
“David's a Martial Arts Marquis! He’s going to self-destruct. Run!”
When the bystanders noticed that David was going to explode, they started to run for their lives.
Soon enough, the place was steered clear of bystanders. If a Martial Arts Marquis ever were to self-destruct, the explosion would be even greater than the detonation from a hundred tonnes worth of dynamite.
“I'm going to make sure that you die with me, Jared!” David bellowed.
Previously, David would rather get killed by Jared instead of opting for self-destruction. That was because Skylar and the Norton family were present.
If he were to self-destruct, no one from the Norton family would be able to live to tell the tale, not even Skylar.
Therefore, David would choose to die alone instead of self-destructing, even when there was a chance to bring Jared down as well.
However, things had taken a different turn. Since Jared was not planning on having mercy on the Norton family and Skylar had already escaped, David no longer had any other concerns.
