A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4705

Meanwhile, Bernard went straight to check on how Jared's tempering of his physical body upon returning to the imperial city with Cedric.

At that moment, he had a rather grim look on his face.

“Father, why do those three people want to kill Mr. Chance? Could it be that Mr. Chance has some sort of connection with the hidden forces?” Cedric asked in great puzzlement.

Bernard shook his head, replying, “I'm not sure either. But no matter what, we must hold out until Mr. Chance has finished tempering his physical body. During this time, we absolutely cannot allow anyone to come near this place even if it costs us the whole of Allardland!”

“Understood. I'll mobilize the troops to secure this area thoroughly right away!”

Cedric gave a nod.

But at that very moment, several powerful auras materialized near Allardland. Bernard's brows furrowed.

“Experts are approaching Allardland again. Could it be those three men again?” Cedric wondered.

“No, the auras are different,” Bernard stated.

“What on earth is going on? Why have so many experts suddenly come to Allardland? Are they all here for Mr. Chance?”

Cedric's face was a mask of perplexity.

Bernard and Cedric were both unaware of the Decree of Execution Tenth the Hall issued on Jared. Thus, the sudden appearance of numerous experts left them utterly bewildered.

“All of them are here for Jared.”

At just that moment, Octavion made his way over leisurely.

“How do you know that?” asked Cedric.

“Because the Tenth Hall issued a Decree of Execution on Jared for a hundred thousand celestial crystals. So, these people are here to execute it,” Octavion replied casually.

“A hundred thousand celestial crystals?”

Bernard was taken aback, never having anticipated the Tenth Hall to be so generous.

“Given that they're here for Mr. Chance, why didn't they make a move? If those three cultivators earlier had done so, even all of Allardland might not have been able to stop them,” Cedric asked, baffled.
