Chapter 1150 Going Into Hiding
He knew Coby had come for Pentacarna Tower.
Since the actual Pentacarna Tower had been kept in his Storage Ring, that building was no different from an ordinary tower, so he had no reason to hold on to it any longer.
“Oh, this tower isn’t all that I want…”
Coby’s eyes lit up with greed as he continued, “I know you’ve got lots of magical items on you. I’ll consider sparing you if you hand them all over!”
Jared frowned when he heard that.
So, Coby isn’t just after the Pentacarna Tower… He’s after my magical items as well. The Pentacarna Tower behind me has been reduced to an ordinary tower with no restrictions, so I should be able to escape by breaking through it…
With that in mind, Jared quickly ran back to Pentacarna Tower and punched hard at its wall.
Boom!
The impact from his punch left a gaping hole in the wall. Jared then ran through it and concentrated his spiritual energy in his legs as he made a speedy escape.
“Go after him! Hurry!”
Coby wasn’t expecting Jared to break through the wall, so he quickly led his men into Pentacarna Tower to go after him.
However, the tower started to crumble right as Coby and his men entered.
The bricks and tiles came crashing down, and dust was everywhere as Coby and the others got buried beneath the rubble.
A faint smile broke out on Jared’s face as he glanced at the remains of the Pentacarna Tower behind him.
Given the speed at which he was running, it wasn’t long before he disappeared into the distance.
Swoosh!
A few figures emerged from the rubble moments later.
As they were all Martial Arts Grandmasters or higher, the collapsing tower didn’t even leave a scratch on them.
It didn’t prevent them from being completely covered in dust, though.
Coby glanced about but saw no sign of Jared anywhere.
“Mr. Coby…” Jericho called out to him softly when he saw his gloomy expression.
“I don’t care where Jared goes. I must get my hands on him!” Coby shouted with a vicious look in his eyes.
After making his escape, Jared decided to take a flight back to Jadeborough.
He had just arrived at the airport when he got a call from Leviathan.
Thinking something might have happened to Shadow Estate, Jared quickly answered the call.
“Don’t come back to Jadeborough for the time being, My Lord! Many of the sects and clans here are on the hunt for you!” Leviathan shouted anxiously.
“Huh? Why is that? Did the Warriors Alliance tell them to come after me?” Jared asked with a frown.
Zion must be p*ssed at me for killing Warren. It’s possible that he used his identity as president of the Warriors Alliance to force the other clans into hunting me down.
“No, it has nothing to do with the Warriors Alliance. You’ll know why after you check the martial arts forum…” Leviathan replied.
After hanging up the phone, Jared pulled up the martial arts forum and saw a bunch of messages pop up.
Apparently, Skylar had anonymously revealed information about Jared possessing the Power of Dragons and the draconic essence.
The look in Jared’s eyes turned icy-cold when he saw the post.
Skylar and Karl are the only ones who know about the draconic essence inside my body. Karl is already dead, so Skylar must’ve been the one who wrote that post. I bet he’s really p*ssed about losing to me, so he revealed that information to have all the other clans hunt me down. Can’t really blame them, though. The Power of Dragons is really tempting, after all.
He mumbled, “Looks like I won’t be able to return to Jadeborough any time soon…”
With that in mind, Jared canceled the flight ticket on his phone and booked a flight for Horington instead.
He was planning to head over to Horington and find a place to lie low.
