While he was about to doze off, he suddenly sensed two figures in front of him. His heart skipped a beat as cold sweat flowed from his forehead. Usually, he would be able to detect any movement within a hundredmeter radius. Nothing could hide from him. Yet, he only noticed the two figures after they got so close to him.
If they are here to kill me, I will be in great danger.
Feeling a shiver, Jared jumped up from his bed and stared at them. A second later, he heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out they were Rayleigh and Melanie.
“What a muscular body you've got...”
Melanie's lips curled into a smile as she stared at Jared, who was only wearing his underpants.
Turning red, he immediately put on his clothes. He then stared at Rayleigh and Melanie with a confused look, wondering what they were doing at his house.
“Not bad. It's only been a few days, but you’ve improved again. It looks like you ran into an opportunity.” Rayleigh nodded with satisfaction as he studied Jared. He had no idea that Jared had consumed a decamillennium ginseng.
“M-Mr. Deragon, why did you guys come to Horington?” Jared could not wrap his head around it.
“Why else? Mr. Deragon was worried about your safety. Yet, who would have thought that you would advance so much in such a short time.”
There was a trace of envy in Melanie's gaze.
Jared was grateful after knowing they had come all the way from
Jadeborough because they were concerned about his safety. “Thanks, Mr. Deragon. I have confidence in the battle tomorrow.”
Rayleigh was somehow delighted upon seeing Jared's confidence. Nevertheless, his expression turned serious shortly after. “Even though you are now at the Third Tier of the Transcendence Phase, you should not underestimate the power of the Martial Arts Grandmaster. Xander was able to reach that level by force through solitary training. He is the real deal.”
“Thanks for your advice, Mr. Deragon. I will keep that in mind.”
