Coby was not a fool. He knew Skylar told him all those things because the latter wanted him to deal with Jared.
Since Jared could hurt Skylar, Jared must be formidable. Coby would not be so stupid as to provoke someone as strong as Jared and turn him into the Rowling family's enemy.
Nevertheless, Coby was very interested in fighting Jared in an arena.
Skylar was dumbfounded. He thought that by informing Coby of the secret of Pentacarna Tower, the latter would assist him in handling Jared.
It turned out he was too naive in making the assumption.
However, the next second, Skylar sneered, spun on his heels and strode toward the exit.
“Since you are reluctant to deal with Jared, I'll look for somebody else to undertake the task. I believe there are people who will wish to take over Jared's treasures, such as the draconic essence, Storage Ring, and Dragonslayer Sword. Especially the draconic essence in his body, which is the product of the fusion of two pieces of draconic essence and had developed the Power of Dragons,” Skylar uttered on his way out.
“Hold on!” Coby suddenly called out to Skylar.
“Is there anything else, Mr. Coby?” Skylar turned around and asked.
“Are all the treasures you mentioned earlier in Jared's possession? Also, you said the draconic essence manifested the Power of Dragons. Is that true?” Coby questioned Skylar doubtfully.
Skylar nodded and replied firmly, “Of course. If you do not believe me, Mr.
Coby, you can search for any video of Jared's battles on the martial arts forum. You can see those items I talked about in the recordings.”
Coby gazed at Skylar for a short while before saying, “All right. As long as Jared is still in Xenhall, he can forget about leaving that place.”
After that, Coby summoned Jericho into the room and ordered, “Immediately lead a group of men to Xenhall's Gardner Manor and guard that tower well. Forbid anyone from entering because that place will now be the Rowling family's territory. If you all stumble into Jared, avoid confronting him. I'll be there soon.”
Coby was worried that Jericho would not fare well against Jared in a fight. That would alarm Jared in the process and scare him away. If Jared fled, it would be difficult to track him down again.
“Yes, sir!” Jericho nodded.
