A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 6120

"Who dares!"

Garrick's bellow split the night, and the True Immortal Realm Level One aura he had suppressed for so long erupted without restraint.

A sheet of golden aura burst outward, whipping through the courtyard. The flagstones under everyone's feet quivered, hairline cracks spreading across their surface.

He had walked this world for a full thousand years and pushed his cultivation all the way to the True Immortal Realm. The depth of power he carried could no longer be gauged.

For his daughter, for the final shred of The Janis Family's honor, he finally tore every restraint away and let that strength erupt.

He slammed his palm forward. A golden imprint, bright as a noonday sun, roared out with the force of crashing mountains and sweeping seas.

Several Celestial Palace Elders answered with a simultaneous snort. None of them showed the slightest hesitation as they struck back together.

"Boom!" The detonation shook the sky.

A savage shockwave expanded from the two sides at its center. Janis Manor's guards had no time to dodge; the blast lifted them off their feet and smashed them to the ground, blood spilling from their mouths.

A numbing jolt ran the length of Garrick's arm. The counter-force shoved him three steps back, and a ribbon of blood slid from the corner of his lips.

The two Celestial Palace Elders facing him never even swayed. Their breathing remained rock steady.

One man against many—he simply did not hold the upper hand.

Still, he refused to retreat.

Not a single step.

Vivian was still somewhere inside the manor, still behind him.

He was her father and the family Patriarch; the road to her had to stop with him.

"Garrick, you're courting death." The white-haired elder's voice came out flat and icy.

Garrick wiped the blood from his mouth. "I said Jared isn't here. Look all you want, but if you plan to touch my daughter you'll have to walk over my corpse first."

The white-haired elder shook his head; his gaze narrowed, the air around him turning sharply brusque.

He motioned again. The hundred Celestial Palace soldiers behind him advanced in unison like starving wolves.

"Since the Patriarch won't hand her over, beat him until he changes his mind. Move!"

"Understood!"

A hundred weapons flashed as the soldiers surged toward Garrick, murderous intent flooding the courtyard.

Garrick's gaze tightened, and instead of yielding, he charged straight at them.

His palm thundered out. Golden aura exploded, flinging the three soldiers at the very front through the air; they hit the ground hard, blood spraying before their eyes rolled back.

But the enemy's numbers were simply too great.

He felled one, and ten more rushed in.

He felled ten, and a hundred followed.

They packed together, an endless tide without a gap to breathe.

The remaining Janis Manor guards saw their Patriarch swallowed by that tide. Veins stood out at their temples as they drew their weapons and charged.

"Protect the Patriarch!"

"Fight them! Don't let them touch him!"

"Live and die with The Janis Family!"

Battle cries rolled through the estate, shaking the very air.
