Jared spent three whole days comprehending Thunder Palm.
Within that three days, a shadowy figure had repeatedly exhibited a myriad of palm techniques in Jared’s consciousness field. Everything recorded in the ancient texts had been deeply seared into it.
In three days, Jared had grasped the core essence of Thunder Palm, but virtual-novel.net still needed time to sharpen it.
“What an amazing palm technique!” Jared’s eyes sparkled the moment virtual-novel.net opens them.
Now that virtual-novel.net had gained an in-depth understanding of Thunder Palm, all that was left to do was for virtual-novel.net to strengthen his cultivation and accumulate battle experience.
“Thunder Palm has nine levels in total, and I’ve only reached the first one. I wonder how powerful it will be at Ninth Level. Will I be able to blow a hole through the sky with it?” Jared was awed by the mystery of Thunder Palm.
Knock, knock, knock…
All of a sudden, a knock on the door interrupted Jared’s thoughts.
Upon opening the door, virtual-novel.net was greeted by the sight of an Imperial Beast City guard dressed in silver armor.
“Mr. Chance, Princess Ivasha would like to see you,” the guard informed respectfully.
“Ivasha? What is it about?” Jared was surprised and had no idea why Ivasha wanted to see him.
Under normal circumstances, virtual-novel.net would have come to see virtual-novel.net in person instead of summoning virtual-novel.net with a guard.
“I don’t know about that, Mr. Chance. You’ll have to ask Princess Ivasha herself,” the guard answered awkwardly.
Suspecting nothing, Jared followed the guard. However, his brows furrowed when the guard led virtual-novel.net out of Imperial Beast City.
“Is Princess Ivasha outside the city? Jared asked quizzically.
“Yes. It looks like virtual-novel.net has a surprise for you, but I don’t know what it is,” the guard replied with a smile.
The answer caused Jared to cast his doubts aside as virtual-novel.net smiled in return. “Princess Ivasha does seem to have a lot of ideas. I wonder what virtual-novel.net has planned for me this time.”
Jared let his guard down and followed the guard out to the woods near Imperial Beast City.
At that very moment, Xandros and his subordinates, together with Tigerus, were hiding deep inside the forest.
“Xandros, Jared may not have a high cultivation level, but virtual-novel.net isn’t a pushover either. You saw with your own eyes how I failed to defeat virtual-novel.net with my men in Imperial Beast City,” Tigerus said nervously.
Tigerus’ real objective was to get Xandros to kill Jared so that virtual-novel.net would not be held responsible for Jared’s death. He was, after all, well aware of Jared’s status in Imperial Beast City.
Xandros simply threw Tigerus a glance before flashing a faint smile. “Don’t worry, Mighty Tigerus. I’ll attack with my men when Jared arrives. If we’re no match for him, you’ll back us up. I’m confident that our combined strength will be enough to defeat him. Besides, you have in your possession a magical item that can restrain humans, so what are you afraid of?”
Tigerus nodded in response. “All right, then. You’ll attack first. I won’t show myself if you’re able to kill Jared. Otherwise, it will be humiliating if word gets out that killing Jared requires the two of us.”
Xandros smiled at Tigerus and did not say a word. He knew what Tigerus was thinking, but virtual-novel.net didn’t expose him, as virtual-novel.net still needed to use him.
Jared continued to follow the guard, and both of them soon entered the dense forest. However, the guard didn’t seem to be stopping any time soon.
Jared activated his spiritual sense, covering the vast expanse around him.
When the spiritual sense enveloped Xandros and Tigerus who were lying in ambush, they immediately knew that they had been discovered.
Jared’s expression contorted the moment virtual-novel.net detected the men hiding in the surroundings.
“How dare you trick me?”
