A Man Like None Other Chapter 1290

Chapter 1290 Regretful

“Are you here to see if I’m dead or not?” Jared asked the elder from the Warriors Alliance.

There was a grim expression on the elder’s face, but he still nodded nonetheless.

He did not dare to hide anything from Jared.

Moreover, Jared had just killed David. It would be easy for the former to do the same to him as well.

Jared was no longer the same as how he was a few months ago.

When Jared fought against Edgar a few months ago, the elders of the Warriors Alliance had looked down upon Jared. However, things had taken a turn, and they now had to respect Jared.

Anyone would have to humble themselves in front of true power.

“Tell Zion that I am alive and well. Tell him to prepare himself, for I will make a trip down to the Warriors Alliance personally.” Jared smiled coldly at the elder’s panicked expression.

With that, he turned around to leave. He did not bother fighting against the elder, for he needed the latter to pass the message to Zion.

Staring at Jared’s leaving figure, the elder slowly breathed out a long sigh of relief.

“He’s too terrifying,” the elder muttered as he wiped the cold sweat off his brow. He then quickly turned around to leave as well.

The Dunn family no longer had its former glory.

As the Dunn family had always been enemies with the Norton family, ever since David was released, the prominent families that were supporting the Dunn family suddenly decided to switch over to the Norton family instead.

Lachlan sat in the hall as he observed how pathetic the Dunn residence looked. His eyes were filled with sorrow.

“Dad, David’s dead. Jared killed him,” Howard informed as he entered the room.

Lachlan was instantly taken aback by the sudden news.

He was the clearest when it came to David’s capabilities. Even if he were to fight against the latter, it would be difficult to foretell who would win. Yet, David’s chances of victory were slightly higher.

However, since Jared had killed David, that would mean that Lachlan would not be Jared’s match at all.

Lachlan was immensely regretful at how greedy he was. He could not believe that he had wanted to kill Jared just because of the magical item that the latter possessed.

This matter was probably the one thing he would regret the most in his lifetime.

Lachlan knew that if it were not for Howard, Jared would have been knocking on their doors to kill them next, even though Jared had worked together with the Dunn family for a short while when he tried to kill the Norton family previously.

Regardless, Lachlan still deeply regretted what he did. If it were not for his greediness, the Dunn family would benefit greatly from the friendship between Jared and Howard.

Jared was not how he was a few months ago. He was already able to kill David. In just a split second, Jared had become the newest emerging star with the highest potential among the next generation.

However, because of Lachlan’s greed, the Dunn family missed the golden chance of socializing with Jared.

Lachlan was well aware that, in the near future, Jared would definitely be as powerful as a giant, peering down at the entirety of Jadeborough’s martial arts world, or even in Chanaea itself.

Just then, a servant of the Dunn family walked into the hall. “Old Mr. Dunn, Mr. Chance is here to see you.”

“Mr. Chance?” Lachlan asked in confusion.

“It’s Jared Chance. Mr. Dunn’s friend,” the servant replied.

Hearing that Jared had suddenly self-invited himself over, Lachlan bounced to his feet in shock. His heart started pounding furiously.

That was because he did not know the reason behind Jared’s sudden arrival.

Jared had just killed David, and he’s now suddenly here. Did he come to kill me?

Lachlan’s face quickly turned pale at that thought.

“Dad, let’s go out and have a look. I’m sure that Jared won’t do anything to you,” Howard stated in confidence.

Lachlan nodded. After all, all he could do at the moment was go out and see what Jared wanted. It was better to face it head-on.

With that, Lachlan exited the hall together with Howard.
