The King Of Warriors (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4991

Chapter 4991 How Dare You
Jared searched the fallen soldiers' bodies but found nothing of value. It was clear they weren't particularly strong, and their resources were limited, too.

“Let's go. We should take our chance and slip out while the chaos lasts,” Jared said, then turned to lead Madman and the others toward the outskirts of the city.

Just as they leapt into the air, ready to leave, a squad of soldiers suddenly appeared, blocking their path.

“Well, well... finally found you,” came a furious voice. Thorley stood at the front, face twisted in anger, teeth clenched.

Seeing it was Thorley, and that he'd brought only a few soldiers, Jared let out a laugh.

“This is all you brought to catch us?” he said, amused.

“Forget them,” Thorley snapped, snorting. “Even if I came alone, taking you down would be child's play. I don't care who you think you are. Surrender now and save yourself the pain.”

“Hey, is it some kind of celestial tradition to act all high and mighty? Would it kill you to show a little humility?” Jared scoffed, genuinely at a loss for words.

What's so special about these so-called celestials anyway? They boast about their noble bloodlines, yet every one of them is arrogant, completely convinced they're better than everyone else.

Thorley faltered for a moment, a slight frown tugging at his brow. “Do you even know who I am?”

“I know more than just your name,” Jared replied with a faint smile. “Your father is Braxton, overlord of the Celestial Palace's Eighth Hall, isn't he? Funny enough, I've already defeated him once. So your odds are even worse.”

Thorley stared at him, stunned. Disbelief flickered across his face. He simply couldn't understand how Jared had learned such a tightly guarded secret.

The Celestial Palace's Eighth Hall was the true power behind Winged Tiger City, a fact known to almost no one. Publicly, it was the city lord Jovan who held authority.
