A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance)
Chapter 4804 I Will Kill You Sooner Or Later

"How did you come to know about it?" Jared asked, filled with doubt.

"Mr. Chance, this is my secret. I'm afraid I can't share it!" Sires said with a laugh.

"Even though the sixth level is abundant with resources and celestial ore mines, our strength still falls short of reaching that level."

Jared shook his head.

Octavion could only barely manage to stay on the fourth level for a short period of time. Now, if they were thinking of advancing to the sixth level, it wouldn't be such an easy task.

When Jared ascended the Celestial Stairway, he was merely seeking a workout, while also hoping to possibly obtain some resources.

The idea of ascending to the celestial realm via the Celestial Stairway was something Jared had never even considered.

Although his current strength far exceeded his own cultivation level, Jared would not be so arrogant as to believe he was invincible in the Ethereal Realm, ready to ascend to the celestial realm.

"With both of us combined, actually-"

"Enough. I have no interest in ascending to any sixth level, nor in any

collaboration. Excuse me!"

Before the man could finish his sentence, Jared leaped from the upper floor, following Catalina and the others as they departed.

As Sires watched Jared's retreating figure, a glimmer of disappointment flashed in

his eyes.

"He didn't agree?"

At that moment, a woman, garbed in a vibrant red robe as if flames were dancing on her, approached.

The woman was also donning a mask, obscuring her features.

The man shook his head, then turned to the woman and asked, "Josephine, don't you recognize him?"

The woman shook her head. "I don't know him. This should be the first time we've met, yet he seems strangely familiar, just like how he seemed to recognize you earlier!"

The man slowly removed his mask, revealing a face that hinted at a life of hardship.

Beneath this mask, it was actually Skylar.

The person Jared had just spent half a day conversing with turned out to be Skylar, the very man who had always been intent on killing Jared.

At this point, Skylar's entire demeanor had completely changed, as if he had become a different person.

"Friend?" Skylar murmured, gazing out the window. "Friend or foe, it doesn't matter. Sooner or later, I will kill you. It's just a shame that I'm not your match right now."

"Skylar, our master commanded us not to remove our masks when we're outside. How could you dare to disobey?"

The woman's voice was icy as she spoke to Skylar.

"Josephine, I'm sorry!" Skylar put his mask back on.

"Skylar, why do you insist on killing him?" the woman asked.

"The vengeance for my father's murder. It's a grudge that will persist forever..." Anger blazed in Skylar's eyes. "Josephine, you will help me, won't you?"

"Of course..."

The woman radiated an aura akin to an Immortal Realm Level Two, her fiery red cloak seemed to dance with flames. "If he can fight above his level, there's no reason we can't..." she said.

Skylar laughed, his gaze held a hint of cruelty.

Jared, would you be upset if you knew you were going to be killed by the woman you loved most?

The woman standing before him

was none other than Josephine, the one Jared had been tirelessly searching for. Ever since Josephine had been taken away by Inferno Devil she had relied on her fiery constituent to rapidly enhance her cultivation.

In those days, Josephine was equally capable of punching above her weight. When Skylar was initially sought out by Inferno Devil, he was taken@back upon seeing Josephine. Once he found out that Josephine had lost all her memories, a daring plán began to take root in Skylar's heart.

The intention was to have Josephine carry out the act of ending Jared's life. Moreover, it was crucial that Jared, in his dying moments, knew that it was the woman he cherished the most who was responsible for his demise.

Only such cruelty could quell the vengeance that had been festering in Skylar's heart for many years.

Skylar had contemplated getting involved with Jared's woman as a form of revenge against Jared.

It was a pity that his skills were no match for Josephine. Before he could even make a move, he almost got beaten half to death by her.

From that point on, Skylar dared not entertain those inappropriate thoughts anymore.

"Let's get going. It's best to steer clear of Jared before the Celestial Stairway descends. We don't need any unnecessary trouble. Once we've ascended the Celestial Stairway, there'll be plenty of opportunities!"

After finishing her words, Josephine left the tavern, taking Skylar with her.
