Edgar, in spite of his swelling defiance, didn't dare protest further.
The casual palm strike Fernando unleashed had clearly reminded him of the gulf in power that stood between them.
No one had anticipated that the reclusive Fernando was capable of displaying such tremendous power.
"Mr. Gunderson, since you have made your decision..."
Even Zion couldn't help but be cowed by the prowess Fernando had exhibited.
"Cut the crap. If I find out that the Warriors Alliance is responsible for harming my daughter, you'll suffer the consequences."
With that, Franklin turned toward Lachlan. "Lachlan, let's go."
Without a moment's delay, Lachlan left with Fernando, together with his men.
Watching Jared being evacuated, Zion roared, "Just you wait! I'll make all of you pay!"
As his ego had been dealt a devastating blow, Edgar's eyes narrowed as the glower on his face deepened.
All this while, he had assumed he was a giant in the Jadeborough martial arts world due to his body being possessed and the innate talent that allowed him to cultivate rapidly.
However, after being put in his place, the reality that there were plenty of others who were more powerful finally dawned upon him.
"Mr. Gunderson, thank you. I appreciate what you have done. If not for your intervention, Mr. Chance would likely have been finished off in the arena."
Halfway through their journey, Lachlan dropped to his knees in front of Fernando.
He was cognizant of how instrumental Fernando had been in their escape.
He didn't mind sacrificing himself, but Jared's life had to be protected at all costs.
