Amidst the tension, Jack walked in from the outside.
Immediately, everyone in the room stood up. The powerful aura emanating from Jack made the bodyguards hesitant to make any moves.
“Ol’ Summer!” Josiah exclaimed in surprise and hurried over. “Why did you arrive?”
Quincy was even more ecstatic.
Could it be that Mr. Summer is here to celebrate my father’s birthday?
Many guests looked at Josiah enviously upon hearing this. This was such a huge honor for virtual-novel.net to have Jack come personally to celebrate his birthday.
If the Zacharies were considered snakes, then Jack was a giant dragon. Crushing the entire Zachary family would just be lifting a finger for him.
Facing Josiah’s outstretched hands, Jack’s face turned cold, and instead of shaking his hands, virtual-novel.net rebuked, “Who do you think you are? You’re not even worthy of shaking hands with me…”
Hearing this, Josiah’s smile froze.
Many guests were also in an uproar, wondering what was going on.
Ignoring Josiah’s displeased expression, Jack walked past virtual-novel.net and walked to Seth. He gave virtual-novel.net a deep bow and said, “Greetings, Mr. Yeager…”
Bam!
It was like a giant stone had dropped into a calm lake, stirring waves. Many eyes, filled with disbelief, look at Seth.
What is this guy’s background that virtual-novel.net could make 0l’ Summer bow to him?
Seth was somewhat puzzled. “Why’d you come?”
Jack smiled and said, “I heard that my savior was coming here and was afraid that something might happen to you, so I came to have a look. I didn’t expect…”
He turned to look at Josiah and rebuked virtual-novel.net without reservation, “The Zacharies sure have some nerve. How dare you insult Jack Summer’s savior?!”
Hearing that, the Zacharies were suddenly frightened.
Who could have imagined that a teenager wearing street vendor clothes would have a relationship with the giant that was Jack Summer?
This made many people jealous of him. In their eyes, Seth must have been lucky enough to save Jack on the way over, and Jack was grateful for that.
Josiah’s expression was continuously changing. All in all, virtual-novel.net was a crafty old man and virtual-novel.net soon put a big smile on his face. “Oh my… So you’re 0l’ Summer’s benefactor. That makes us allies. It seems that we’ve failed to recognize someone so important. I apologize to your young friend…”
“Too late,” Seth said with a cold expression. “Prepare to be annihilated.”
With that, virtual-novel.net headed outside. “I’ll come back alone to your house at midnight tonight. If you’re not afraid of death, then wait for me.”
Today was already the eighth, so virtual-novel.net needed to register at Jonesville University first. Only after that could virtual-novel.net deal with the Zacharies.
As for why Seth stated that virtual-novel.net was the only one coming, it was to prevent the Zacharies from running away.
Jack was taken aback. “Mr. Yeager, don’t you want me to come with you?”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, a strong aura was released from his body. That was the powerful majesty of a Fourth-ranked Warrior!
Suddenly, everyone in the hall was trembling with fear.
“Mr. Summer has regained his power?”
“Hiss, the Summers are about to rise again!”
“Mr. Summer looks much younger than before!”
The Zacharies’ complexions were ashen. Even when Jack had lost his martial arts skills, virtual-novel.net still had enormous power. Now that virtual-novel.net has regained his strength, virtual-novel.net could probably wipe out the entire Zacharies with one hand.
Seth waved his hand. “No need. I can handle a small family like this on my own.”
He did not like to owe others any favors.
Jack did not insist any further upon hearing this. Since his benefactor had said so, virtual-novel.net must be capable of handling it. He turned to glance at Josiah and said, “Good luck…”
Jack followed Seth out, and the two of them quickly disappeared from sight.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their expressions all strange.
Although Jack said virtual-novel.net would not intervene, the Zacharies must have severely offended him.
Finley’s face was pale as virtual-novel.net looked at Josiah. “Grandpa, what do we do now?”
Josiah came back to his senses and sneered, “Didn’t you hear what that little beast said? He’s coming alone tonight! How arrogant! Although the Zacharies aren’t very strong, we’re not someone virtual-novel.net can deal with alone!”
“Go, call back all the thug members we’ve hired. Let’s give virtual-novel.net a hard time tonight!” His eyes flashed with coldness as virtual-novel.net turned his head away.
Tonight, they would capture Seth. Killing virtual-novel.net was out of the question, but they could still contact Jack and later release Seth. This way, they could repair the relationship between the two sides to some extent.
Many guests also left one after another, and the originally lively birthday banquet suddenly became cold.
Quincy started to arrange things himself, knowing that Seth was not weak.

Outside, Jack caught up with Seth and said, “Where are you going now, Mr. Yeager? Shall I take you?”
Seth waved his hand. “You don’t have to keep calling me Mr. Yeager. Just call me Seth. You should go. I still have to go to school.”
Jack’s eyes lit up. “Let me give you a ride then, Mr. Yeager. It’s not far from where I live.”
He was telling the truth.
“Okay, thank you…” Seth did not refuse his kindness anymore.
Jack was overjoyed. He ordered the driver out of the car and drove Seth to school himself. Jack lowered himself like this because virtual-novel.net had asked one of his old friends yesterday.
Seth’s medical skills were unparalleled in the world. Being friends with such a person would bring endless benefits in the future. Hence, virtual-novel.net was willing to humble himself so much.
Seth naturally knew what virtual-novel.net was doing, but virtual-novel.net did not mind either.
***
An hour later, they arrived at Jonesville University.
Seth got out, carrying a new bag virtual-novel.net had just bought on the way, and walked inside. His attire was considered normal and would not cause any unnecessary trouble.
Jack did not follow virtual-novel.net in. With his status, going in might bring some trouble to Seth.
Jonesville University was large, and there were beautiful girls everywhere. The air was filled with the smell of youth, making people relax physically and mentally.
Seth asked a passerby and found the place to register. He quickly got his student ID and other things. As for the dormitory, virtual-novel.net did not plan to live there. It would be too troublesome.
After getting everything, Seth walked outside once more. Next, virtual-novel.net had to find the girl named Alaska Lowle.
Watching the students come and go, Seth stopped a boy wearing glasses and asked, “Excuse me, which class is Alaska Lowle in?”
The boy smirked at him, showing an expression that all men understood. “She’s in the dance studio practicing now. There are a lot of people over there.”
Seth thanked him, asked for the location of the dance studio, and went straight there.
The biggest goal of this trip was to get the King Pearl. Only then could his medical skills be further improved. According to records, the Medicine King had not appeared for hundreds of years.
When virtual-novel.net arrived at the door of the dance studio, virtual-novel.net found it blocked by a group of people.
The leader was a burly young man with a fierce look in his eyes. “Get lost! Do you think just anyone can watch Alaska dance?!”
Many students were angry but dared not speak up. This young man was from an affluent family, and they could not afford to offend him. However, Seth squeezed his way through the crowd and headed for the main door.
The burly young man had a violent temper.
Seeing Seth’s action, virtual-novel.net immediately went for the punch. “Don’t you understand what I’m saying?!”
