A Man Like None Other Chapter 748

Chapter 748 Not Interested

Just when Jared was about to panic, someone pushed open the door to the mansion. Tommy and Phoenix walked in.

Upon seeing the scene inside the mansion, Tommy and Phoenix turned their heads away immediately. “We’re sorry, Mr. Chance. We didn’t know you have such a hobby early in the morning.”

With that, the duo was about the leave when Jared stopped them and said, “Stop right there! I’m just having breakfast. Nothing’s going on here!”

As he spoke, he took the opportunity to stand up and get away from Lyanna.

“How did you guys know that I’m back?” Jared asked.

Ever since he came back from Mapleton, he hadn’t informed the two of them because he didn’t want to disrupt their efforts to strengthen themselves. Seeing how our enemies are all getting stronger, there isn’t much Tommy and Phoenix could do in the future if they stay at being Grandmasters.

In fact, Tommy and Phoenix were well aware of their limitations as well. If they didn’t strengthen themselves, they might end up causing more trouble than they were to solve them. Hence, they had been working hard to cultivate with the help of Jared’s boosting pills.

“Mr. Grange told us,” Tommy answered hurriedly.

“So, what’s up?” Jared knew Walter wouldn’t have told them his whereabouts for no reason. They must’ve gone to find Walter to ask about me.

“You’re the talk of the martial arts world after you defeated Xander, Mr. Chance. Now, the states of Jazona and Nuthana are going to form a Martial Alliance. They’d like you to be the leader,” Phoenix explained.

“No. I’m not interested in being a leader of anything.” Jared rejected the idea without any hesitation. I have too many things to deal with now. What do I care about some Martial Alliance? Let alone be the leader of it!

Upon hearing that, Tommy and Phoenix looked like they were caught in a tight spot.

Jared noticed it and asked coldly, “Did you guys promise someone otherwise to get some personal gains?”

Tommy and Phoenix were terrified upon hearing that.

“We wouldn’t dare, Mr. Chance! It’s just that I think you should still go over even if you aren’t interested in being the leader. The reason is that the Robinson family from Nuthana said they had prepared an exquisite gift for you. Apparently, the Robinsons’ previous generations were grave looters. I think you might want to take a look at their collection of rare treasures,” Tommy explained hastily.

“The Robinson family?” Jared frowned. He had never heard about them before. I don’t think I’ve heard or met any Robinson when I was at Herb Palace in Tayhaven Town for the martial arts meet.

“Mr. Chance, the Robinson family isn’t one of those martial arts families. However, they’re quite famous in Nuthana because their ancestors used to be grave looters. Everyone tried to cozy up to them because they have plenty of expensive and rare treasures,” Phoenix explained.

In response, Jared nodded. No wonder I’ve never heard about them before. So, they’re not a martial arts family. On second thought, perhaps it’s not a bad idea to follow Tommy and Phoenix. Since July 15th is only a few days from now, and I’m all out of spiritual stone, I might find something useful over there!

“All right, then. We’ll go over after I get changed.” With that, Jared went into his room.

Lyanna walked up to Tommy and Phoenix curiously. “Who is Jared to the two of you? Why are you guys so scared of him?”

She was curious because she could tell Tommy and Phoenix weren’t commoners. In fact, they looked like they were quite capable. Why do they respect Jared so much?

Tommy and Phoenix looked at each other and were a little baffled. “Don’t you remember us, Ms. Melanie?”
