That was a warning meant for Zeke, for Alfred was here to capture Jared. He didn't want to harm any innocent beings.
“Zeke, go to Josephine and the rest. I'll be there soon,” Jared told Zeke.
Zeke nodded. He took two steps before coming to a stop.
“J-Jared, am I a coward for leaving you both here?” Zeke asked, feeling conflicted.
Jared gave a lopsided grin. “Zeke, you don't know martial arts. You won't be any help even if you stay, so just leave.”
He wasn't about to blame Zeke for leaving, for not everyone got the guts to go against the Whitaker family like him.
After hesitating briefly, Zeke announced, “I might not be skilled in martial arts, but I can't leave you alone. That's not what friends should do. I might as well die together with you!”
Zeke stalked back to Jared's side after saying that.
Jared was pleased to hear that. “Zeke, they are the ones who will die.
Nothing will happen to us today.”
After attaining Level Nine Energy Cultivation, Jared knew Alfred wasn't his match.
“All right. Since you have a death wish, I shall grant your wish.”
Alfred narrowed his eyes and ordered, “Kill them all!”
The four experts immediately whipped their daggers out and lunged toward Jared menacingly.
Zeke paled at the sight and staggered backward.
Jared stood before him in a protective manner without taking action. Meanwhile, Tommy pulled out his belt and charged forward.
Despite battling against four men, Tommy wasn't on the losing side. Instead, he waved his belt around and attacked the enemies ferociously. Tommy's belt was unique as it was made of countless metal rings.
In the dark alley, loud clangs were heard as the belt came into contact with the daggers. Sparks were flying around, too.
