The guards quickly surrounded Jared with their weapons.
In response, the Three Bandits swiftly shielded Jared.
There was no way they would allow any harm to come to Jared, whom their fate was tied to.
“The three of you, stand down. The guards won't do anything to me,” Jared instructed confidently.
With that, the Three Bandits obeyed immediately.
At the same time, one of the guards questioned Jared, “How dare you start a fight in Jipsdale? Are you asking for trouble?”
The guard behaved in an arrogant manner as he could see that Jared was only a Second Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator. Besides that, the fact that they were in the outer city meant Jared couldn't be anyone important.
“Did you see it with your own eyes? I didn't start a fight, nor did I hit anyone,” Jared answered.
“How dare you deny it when someone has already accused you of the crime? Besides, we already detected the aura unleashed earlier. Don't think that you can deny your wrongdoing just because we didn't see it,” the guard asserted.
“In that case, let me tell you that it was they who hit me!” Jared declared, shifting the blame.
“Jared, it's useless to try and twist the facts, as there are plenty of witnesses here. You were the one who hit Mr. Seizon, while he didn't retaliate at all. On top of that, you unleashed your aura the moment you struck. Do you really think you can fool these gentlemen here?”
The next moment, Tyrone walked up to the guards with a gleeful smile. “Gentlemen, this man is unbelievably wicked. Not only did he break the laws of Jipsdale, but he also tried to shift the blame. You definitely cannot let him off the hook!”
While speaking, Tyrone handed some spirit coins to the guards.
Upon receiving the coins, the guards replied smilingly, “Don't worry, Mr. Stone. Anyone who commits a crime in Jipsdale will not go unpunished. We will arrest him right away but will need to trouble you and Mr. Seizon to come with us. Once we have determined that Mr. Seizon was hurt by him, whatever he says in defense will be useless!”
As Stellaris Sect was a major sect in the area, the guards naturally knew its members.
“No problem. We'll provide our full cooperation.”
Tyrone nodded repeatedly.
