Chapter 1129 A Spot
Coby’s subordinate came to him with a phone and reported, “Mr. Coby, a strong contender has emerged among the younger generation in Jadeborough. He managed to kill the director of the Warriors Alliance, Warren Gordon.”
Coby replied casually, “Warren doesn’t even live up to his name. I can kill him easily, too.”
To him, those from the Warriors Alliance were merely fishing for fame. They weren’t capable at all.
“Mr. Coby, this man killed Warren by twisting his head off. He also sent Warren’s head to the Jadeborough Warriors Alliance…” the subordinate added.
Coby’s interest was piqued.
“D*mn. Did that really happen? How interesting.” Coby sat up. “Who is he? Where is he from?”
“Mr. Coby, his name is Jared Chance. I heard that he’s from Horington, Jazona,” his subordinate responded.
“Horington, Jazona…” Coby frowned. “I’ve never heard of any elites coming from that city, let alone young elites.”
“Mr. Coby, Jared only appeared recently. He defeated Edgar Deragon from Jadeborough a while ago. The netizens are discussing on the martial arts forum that he could end up ranking among the top five of the Sage Leaderboard!”
“What? The top five of the Sage Leaderboard? Does that mean he’s stronger than me? This is utter nonsense. I shall make time to meet this Jared soon,” Coby announced with a bark of laughter.
He might be smiling, but his gaze was murderously cool.
Coby wasn’t satisfied with his fifth spot on the Sage Leaderboard. He wouldn’t allow Jared, who had appeared out of nowhere, to surpass his ranking.
“Mr. Coby, there’s no need to get upset. The netizens are talking nonsense online. Jared is no match for you!”
His subordinate had worked for him for years and knew he was furious by now.
The iciness in Coby’s eyes disappeared after he heard his subordinate’s flattering words. He asked, “What about the person I sent to Xenhall? Is he back? Is Karl still refusing to submit to the Rowling family?”
“Mr. Coby, I was about to report the matter to you. Gardner Manor has been destroyed, and we’re unsure if Karl has survived. However, a group of mysterious men has taken the ruins of the Gardner family for themselves,” the subordinate reported in a low voice.
“What? Seriously?” Coby’s brows snapped together.
Marsingfill was right next to Xenhall, so the Rowling family had always wanted to acquire the Gardner family for themselves. Thus, they kept sending their men to convince Karl to submit to the Rowling family.
Naturally, Coby was surprised to learn that someone else had jumped in before them.
Only a handful was capable of destroying the Gardner family in the northwest area. Besides, the Gardner family’s formation was too strong to crack. Otherwise, the Rowling family would’ve acquired them over by force.
“Gather our men. We shall head to Xenhall to find out what happened.”
Coby wanted to see for himself the people that wiped the Gardner family out and took their territory for themselves.
In Xenhall, a few Martial Arts Grandmasters were standing guard outside the Gardner family’s Pentacarna Tower.
For the past few weeks, the ruins had been cleared away, and a new building was being constructed.
Inside Pentacarna Tower, Skylar was surrounded by countless powerful auras.
He bore a warped and smug expression. I had no idea I can become a Martial Arts Grandmaster in such a short amount of time! It has been less than one day since I entered this tower, but my improvement has been swift.
He guffawed. “Oh, this is amazing! I can be a half Martial Arts Marquis if I continue cultivating, and soon become a successful Martial Arts Marquis! No one in Jadeborough’s martial arts world would be able to defeat me! I can even rank on the Sage Leaderboard…”
