“Are you upset?” Jared asked coldly.
“Verily!” Phaethon's eyes widened in defiance.
“I'll grant you an opportunity,” Jared replied frostily. “We can engage in a fight. If you win, I'll allow you to leave. But if you lose, you can only imagine the consequences.”
Phaethon was taken aback by the offer. “Are you serious?”
He found it hard to believe that Jared would have the audacity to challenge him and then let him go if he won.
“Of course. With the condition that you win,” Jared replied with a nod.
Phaethon burst into laughter. “Well, aren't you arrogant? You're only at Fourth Level Body Fusion Realm, and you have the audacity to make such a proposition! Do you truly believe that old man is still possessing you?”
His aura burst forth.
The injuries he suffered were superficial, so he wasn't in danger.
Phaethon reasoned that Jared's prior competence at the treasure trove was due to the presence of the elder of the Archaic Body cultivators within his body. Now that they were no longer connected, Phaethon believed Jared wouldn't be able to match his strength.
Jared let out an icy snort, and the fire nascence blossomed and burst out of his body.
He then launched a kick.
Thud!
The kick landed squarely on Phaethon, sending him flying backward for several hundred meters.
He then crashed onto the ground, creating a huge crater.
“B*stard! How dare you ambush me? You must have a death wish!” Phaethon growled as he got to his feet.
A menacing glint filled Phaethon's eyes as he wiped away the blood from the corner of his lips.
He unsheathed his sword, and a moonlike radiance materialized, hurtling directly at Jared.
The light blazed intensely, and the temperature soared as it approached.
As the radiant light closed in on him, Jared swiftly waved his hand, conjuring the Dragonslayer Sword.
