The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 383

After scrambling to his feet, Zachariah continued backing away with his body all covered in dust.

The crowd was stupefied as they couldn't understand why Zachariah was in such a helpless state.

They had no idea that Jared had drained Zachariah of his martial energy completely. At the moment, Zachariah had been weakened so much that anyone in the crowd could have easily killed him right then and there.

‘Give me a reason why I shouldn't kill you,” Jared ordered coldly.

Zachariah anxiously glanced about his surroundings, and his eyes lit up when his gaze fell upon the old man wearing a hat. “Don't get ahead of yourself just yet, Jared! I can have someone finish you off right away!”

Zachariah then turned toward the old man as he continued, “Master Venicus, the Jantz family will thank you generously if you could help me take care of this crisis! I'm willing to offer up all of the herbs that we own!”

He was so desperate to survive that he didn't even care about the longevity pill anymore. After all, it would serve him no purpose if he wasn't alive to consume it. As such, Zachariah was willing to hand over every herb the Jantz family had in their possession in exchange for Venicus' help.

Jared's eyes lit up as well when he heard Zachariah mention the herbs. Having attained level nine in Energy Cultivation, Jared would require a huge amount of spiritual energy to reach the Foundation Phase. As such, hearing about the herbs got him excited.

“Are you serious, Old Mr. Jantz?”

Venicus was delighted. If I can get my hands on those herbs, I can become a lot stronger! On top of that, I'll also need them to produce aphrodisiac pills or I won't be able to handle banging two women on a daily basis'.

“I'm a man of my word, Master Venicus! I wouldn't dare lie to you, let alone in front of all these people!” Zachariah replied humbly.

“Fair enough!” Venicus said as he took off his hat and began walking toward Jared.

“Who is this guy? I've never seen him before!”

“I don't know. Maybe he's some kind of powerful fighter that the Jantz family hired. Judging by his sage-like appearance, I'd say he must be really powerful!”
