Upon learning that there was no history between them, Yosef secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He said courteously, “Feel free to do so, Mr. Loulland. But just so you know, he'd robbed Pascal of several magical items, so I...”
“Bah! Those are just a bunch of scraps. Go ahead and take them. The body is all I need!”
Archer waved his hand leisurely at that. To Luminous Sect, no magical items in the world would be worth a straw in the presence of Jared's corpse.
“Thank you, Mr. Loulland! Thank you so much!”
Yosef kept on expressing his gratitude.
Sherman, on the flip side, appeared rather upset. Those two snobs are only about my age, but they talk with their noses in the air. The nerve of them to call our magical items scraps!
After all, countless families from the secret realms had turned to Crafting Clan to forge their very own magical items.
Other things aside, Sherman had his eye on Skyler. The woman was stunning and poised, not to mention exuding an enticing celestial aura. She was practically a living embodiment of an angel from heaven. Not in a million years would he pass up the chance to get chummy with a lady like her.
“Who are you people? Some gall you have to pour scorns on the magical items of Crafting Clan. That aside, Mr. Jenkins is the one who took Jared down. You'll lay hold of his body only over my dead body. I still have yet to humiliate him enough to vent my spleen! If you insist on taking Jared's remains, this beauty right here will have to stay and spend some time alone with me.”
Sherman leered at Skyler as he spoke, his eyes shining with sickening lasciviousness.
If anything, that bold speech of his only served to astonish Yosef, who hardly set foot inside the crater.
Archer, in turn, knitted his brows as a ball of rage rose within him. Of course, Skyler, for one, was beyond disgusted when she caught a glimpse of Sherman's mien.
“You shameless piece of sh*t!” she fumed, swinging her palm right at that filthy man all of a sudden.
Immediately, an intense burst of energy zapped in his direction.
As soon as Skyler unleashed her move, Sherman regretted his words. He was too little, too late, to learn that the woman before his eyes had a power that was even way out of Yosef's league at such a young age.
The horrifying aura oppressed him, driving him to the verge of suffocation. Worse still, he found it impossible to move his body at will. It was as though he was about to be torn to shreds.
As the pain wracked his body, he grimaced but could not even muster a cry for help.
