Upon hearing this, Keiran instantly understood. It turned out that his entrance into the trial tower was all due to Yuliya’s scheming. She tried to destroy me through excessive praise!
With that in mind, Keiran wished he could give Yuliya a good thrashing right then and there.
In a hushed tone, Keiran said, “Aunt Selma, Jared has arrived. I can sense his aura. This guy is the one Demon Seal Alliance has been hunting for. If we manage to kill him, we can claim the century-long offerings. I’ve only told you about this matter. You mustn’t share it with anyone else. If things go as planned, the century-long tribute of Demon Seal Alliance will belong to our family alone.”
At this point in time, Keiran was surprisingly still contemplating the century-long offerings from Demon Seal Alliance.
However, he was then within the inner court of Lunarius Palace, with Selma’s protection. Keiran was confident that Jared simply could not harm him.
“What? This guy is the one that Demon Seal Alliance has been tirelessly pursuing? That’s fantastic!” Selma gave a cold laugh and said, “Hide behind me, and watch how I avenge you!”
Keiran took refuge behind Selma, and soon after, Jared emerged, landing in front of Selma.
Selma gave Jared a thorough once-over and was taken aback to discover that Jared was merely a Third Level Tribulator.
“Brat, did you injure my nephew?” Selma questioned Jared.
Jared glanced at Keiran, who was hiding behind Selma, and nodded. “I don’t just intend to injure him. I plan on killing him…”
Once Jared finished speaking, he didn’t hesitate to bring down his sword.
The terrifying aura of the sword energy surprisingly converged on Keiran from all directions.
“How audacious of you! To dare lay a hand on someone within the inner court of Lunarius Palace, right in front of me!” Selma hadn’t anticipated that Jared, a Third Level Tribulator, would be so audacious. Thus, with a swift wave of her hand, layers of frost mist instantly appeared around her, effectively blocking Jared’s sword energy.
Jared gazed at Selma, fully aware that he had to give it his all. He knew he had to find a way to kill Keiran.
Otherwise, Keiran would surely reveal his identity. Jared sheathed his Dragonslayer Sword, an ominous aura continuously radiating from him.
Suddenly, the world plunged into darkness, as if signaling the end of days. A blanket of ominous clouds unexpectedly engulfed the sky, casting a gloomy shadow over the entire Lunarius Palace.
Everyone stared in astonishment at the sudden transformation of the sky. Their shock was beyond words.
Amidst the ominous dark clouds, flashes of lightning and peals of thunder roared while Jared’s body gradually levitated. His form was enveloped in a halo of electricity, resonating with the stormy spectacle in the blackened sky.
Right then, a glimmer of light slowly emerged from Jared’s eyes.
The lightning nascence within him was continually radiating outward. Bolts of lightning flickered in and out of sight, and soon, all of them were converging toward Jared.
Jared slowly raised his hand and pressed it down toward Keiran.
Everyone watched as Jared’s palm thrummed with electricity, all the surrounding lightning seemed to be drawn toward his hand.
Jared’s palm seemed like a vortex, ceaselessly absorbing the surrounding lightning.
“What kind of technique is this? It’s too terrifying!”
“Is it possible for a Third Level Tribulator to pull off such a technique?”
Everyone looked up at Jared.
Yuliya was utterly astounded. She couldn’t believe that Jared had managed to surprise her time and time again. Is this the same weak Third Level Tribulator I once looked down upon?
Selma’s brows furrowed, and a wave of unease surged within her. In a rush, she firmly shielded Keiran behind her.
“Thunder Palm!”
With a sweep of his hand, Jared made his move.
In the palm of his hand, the lightning power roared down, instantly tearing through the void.
The potency of Thunder Palm, bolstered by the lightning nascence, was effectively doubled.
As the lightning roared down, Selma swiftly waved her hand, causing walls of ice to erupt from the ground, intending to envelop Keiran within them.
