Chapter 1540 You Are Afraid Of Me
Gilbert’s body flew backward and crashed into the hill not far away, causing the mound to tremble. Glaring at Jared, Gilbert remarked, “I didn’t expect your abilities to improve so much after burning your blood essence. It’s a pity that your blood essence won’t last long. You’ll be reduced to a useless person who’ll be at anyone’s mercy in fifteen minutes, at most.”
“Fifteen minutes is enough for me to kill you.” Jared’s murderous intent was written all over his face. Since I’ve decided to burn my blood essence, I have to kill Gilbert.
“Hahaha! Don’t you think you’re a little overconfident? How could you compare to me, even if you’ve burned your blood essence? Hmph. You’re too full of yourself for a punk.” Gilbert roared with laughter, his eyes filled with mockery.
Nonetheless, Jared paid no heed to Gilbert’s provocations. After all, the former could not afford to waste a single second when he had little time remaining. Suddenly, the ground beneath Jared shook, and his body shot forward like an arrow toward Gilbert.
The fist that radiated a golden glow flew forward with force so great that it could decimate everything before it. Gilbert’s face turned stony instantly, and he vanished from his spot, causing Jared’s fist to crash into the hill.
Rumble! The whole hill shook. Rocks flew, and cracks formed on the mound like a volcanic eruption. Jared’s brows knitted together as a sullen expression formed on his face.
If Gilbert keeps avoiding me instead of fighting me head-on, I’ll seriously become a useless person when my time is up. “Are you afraid of me?” Jared provoked.
Gilbert sneered, “Afraid of you? As I’ve said, you’re not worth being compared to me, even if you burn your blood essence to forcefully improve your cultivation level.”
“If that’s the case, why are you avoiding me?” Jared asked coldly.
“I know you’re just provoking me, but you know what? I’m going to give you a chance. I’m going to make you admit defeat.”
With that, Gilbert’s aura surrounded him.
At the same time, Jared felt anger surge within him. After letting out a roar, a hint of redness appeared in the golden glow around him.
Seeing that, Gilbert felt more determined to win the fight, and his aura raged.
“Bring it on!” Gilbert roared. With that, he swung his fist, making the wind howl with the speed.
Jared, too, followed suit with no hesitation.
With that, the wind howled louder.
Soon, the duo got into a fight head-on.
Knowing he was running out of time, Jared went all out with every punch he threw.
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged dozens of blows.
The more Gilbert fought, the more afraid he was, for he never expected Jared to have such terrifying strength.
On top of that, Jared’s body was unusually strong, and he fought fearlessly.
When the glow around Gilbert’s body began to dim, a look of shock started filling his eyes.
However, Gilbert was not afraid. At worst, he would buy himself time at his own speed.
Once Jared’s time was up, he would become totally useless.
“Go to h*ll!”
As soon as Jared threw out a punch, light spilled out, and a golden dragon ran through Gilbert’s body.
Gilbert was shocked, and he stumbled a few steps backward. At that moment, he felt a terrifying power spread all over his body.
Suddenly, Gilbert grunted as a wound appeared in his chest, and blood flowed out, staining the ground.
Rage flooded Gilbert’s gaze when he lowered his head to glance at his wounded body.
“You’re quite impressive for being able to injure me like this.”
When he finished saying that, a dark mist shrouded him, condensed at his wound, and finally healed it.
In the meantime, Jared’s brows were knitted into a tight frown. He never expected the attack to still fail in killing Gilbert.
Top Level Martial Arts Marquises truly cannot be underestimated.
“Again!” Jared bellowed, his fighting spirit surging.
With that, he flew toward Gilbert in a flash.
However, Gilbert kept moving backward, intentionally avoiding Jared’s attack.
