Tristan, Franco, and everyone else didn't witness Derek's death. However, the fact remained. Jared had slapped him to his death and had done so within such a short time frame. That proved just how powerful Jared truly was.
“We'll join forces to kill that punk. We can discuss the matter regarding the jade pendant later.”
Franco realized Derek had died, so he negotiated a deal with Tristan.
He planned on killingjared with Tristan’s help.
Who would've thought that Tristan would take a step back instead? He bowed to Jared and said, “I am so sorry for my previous actions. I didn't mean to scare or hurt her.”
Tristan’s words instantly put Franco in an awkward position. It was obvious Tristan was just trying to con Jared into killing Franco for him. If the two of them had joined forces to kill Jared, they would have to fight each other again for the jade pendant. On the other hand, if Franco were to fight Jared alone and deplete Jared's strength... Well, Tristan would benefit if he attacked afterward.
“You sly b*stard!” Franco cussed at Tristan before waving at his subordinates. “We’ll fight the guy together and get the jade pendant.
“Eddy, keep an eye on that woman. Do not let her get away.”
His angry roar prompted the men to go after Jared together. They had ignored Tristan completely by then.
“Lizbeth, stay with Josephine.”
The first thingjared did was to have Lizbeth keep Josephine steady.
Eddy saw how Jared had let go of Josephine's hand, and his eyes shone slyly. He moved to the side and went after her from a blind spot.
“You are so dead.”
Jared's expression turned icy as he redirected his attention.
He had already reached the Foundation Phase, so he didn't care about the Grandmasters at all.
Eddy didn't want to fight. He tilted his body to the side and tried to escape.
