Chapter 1628 I Am The President Now
In Jadeborough, Jared stayed at the Deragon residence for three days in a row, yet the four elites of the Deragon family never returned.
Thus, he decided to leave. Meanwhile, Godrick had also stabilized the entire Deragon family in the past three days.
Thereafter, he issued a statement in the martial arts forum, saying that the Deragon family had withdrawn from Warriors Alliance and would be pledging allegiance to Jared henceforth.
In a flash, that statement stirred up a storm in the entire martial arts world. “Whoa! The Deragon family seems to have been conquered by Jared!”
“Didn’t you notice that the head of the Deragon family had changed? He’s probably a puppet Jared put into power. I’ve never even heard of his name.”
“Let’s just wait and see. Warriors Alliance is doomed.” “I don’t think they’re the only ones, for the same can be said of those families who joined Warriors Alliance.”
Many people started speculating and debating the issue in the forum. Afraid of Jared’s revenge, a great deal of families announced their withdrawal from Warriors Alliance.
Likewise, many of them indicated their willingness to pledge allegiance to the man and obey his orders.
Nonetheless, Jared wasn’t at all moved. He knew that all those fickle families were only choosing to submit to him because of his current capabilities.
If he were no longer as powerful one day, they would undoubtedly turn against him once more.
Therefore, he didn’t pay any mind to the families requesting to be part of his forces. Despite his inaction, Warriors Alliance could no longer sit back and do nothing.
At Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough, Skylar wore an exceedingly grim expression.
Edgar wiped the floor with him back then, but Jared had killed the man a while ago.
Needless to say, the gap in capabilities between them both was evident to all.
The fact that many families had chosen to withdraw from Warriors Alliance and pledge allegiance to Jared had Skylar mortified beyond words.
With Zion dead, the mess—Warriors Alliance—fell on his shoulders.
“How could Jared be so powerful?”
Skylar couldn’t figure out the techniques Jared cultivated that his capabilities skyrocketed, and he could even deal with attacks from those of higher ranks effortlessly.
“You’ve just stepped foot into Greater Martial Arts Marquis, so you still need to focus on cultivating. Don’t clutter your mind with anything else.”
At that precise moment, a voice rang out in his mind.
In truth, he didn’t want to think about it either. Alas, the reality was right before his eyes.
If Jared picks trouble with Warriors Alliance, how am I to deal with it? And who’s going to take responsibility for the mess in Warriors Alliance if the authorities were to pursue the matter?
“Jared will never allow Warriors Alliance off the hook. We’re definitely his next target. After all, his girlfriend is still confined here,” Skylar muttered with a frown.
The spirit no longer said anything, for that was indeed a difficult problem to unravel.
At the end of the day, Warriors Alliance had been using Josephine’s blood to nurture elites continuously.
Even Skylar himself only experienced such rapid improvement in capabilities because he consumed her blood.
“Mr. Norton, Jared—”
A member of Warriors Alliance hurried in to report to Skylar.
But before he could even finish speaking, Skylar shot a hand out and blasted his head off with a burst of martial energy.
The coppery scent of blood pervaded the air, and the sight had the other members shaking in their boots.
“Zion is dead, so I’m the president now. Bear that in mind,” Skylar thundered, sweeping a gaze over the rest of the alliance members.
Everyone hung their heads low, not daring to utter a single word.
“It looks like we have no choice but to go to the higher-ups. Otherwise, the lot of you can’t hold Jared back.”
A frown marred Skylar’s countenance, for he knew that Warriors Alliance was no match for Jared, considering their strength at present.
No sooner had he said that that the air rippled in Warriors Alliance’s main hall. On the heels of that, a man in a black robe materialized.
The emblem on his chest was silver in color, making it clear that he ranked higher than Skylar’s rank of Black Copper Robe.
“You’re all dismissed.”
Skylar waved a hand, dismissing all members of Warriors Alliance.
