A Man Like None Other

Chapter 778

Chapter 778
Axton gazed at Hayden and uttered calmly, “Leave. If you continue to persist, I won’t show mercy…”
Infuriated, Hayden glowered at Jared and hissed through clenched teeth, “Consider yourself lucky today. Sooner or later, I’ll kill you…”
With that, Hayden turned to leave.
When the injured Curtis saw that, he quickly hurried after Hayden.
However, Jared stepped forward and blocked his path, saying, “Don’t even think about leaving.”
“W-What are you going to do?” Curtis was so terrified that he shook like a leaf. Now that one of his hands was severed, he was even more incapable of taking on Jared.
Jared’s eyes glinted coldly. “I’m going to kill you…”
If he hadn’t brought Hayden here, Lyanna wouldn’t have died. It was all because of him! Terrified by Jared’s murderous gaze, Curtis quickly turned to Hayden and pleaded, “Mr. Xuereb, I’m begging you. Please take me with you…

At that moment, all he could do was pray that Hayden would take him away from that place.
Alas, Hayden left without so much as a backward glance.
Curtis sank into despair when he saw Hayden walk off. Left with no other choice, he cast a pleading look at Jared and begged desperately, “Please spare me! I’ll give you anything you want! Turcoln has many magical items,”
Jared fixed him with a menacing glare wordlessly, then swung the Dragonslayer Sword.
Curtis’ head flew up in the air, then fell to the ground and rolled away into a far corner.
Jared sheathed his sword, then went over to Axton and said, “Thank you for coming to my rescue, Mr. Knox.”
“You’re welcome. It was nothing, really,” Axton responded with a faint smile. As his gaze fell upon the Divine Cauldron, he asked, “Is this bronze cauldron yours?”
“Oh, yes. A friend gave it to me.” Jared shot a blast of spiritual energy at the Divine Cauldron as he spoke, and it shrank back to the size of a palm before flying into his hands.
He did not want Axton to know that it was a Divine Cauldron. After all, it’s an ancient divine tool used to craft pills. What if he learns what it really is and wants it for himself? He may have saved my life, but one is susceptible to a change of heart under great temptation. It’ll be better for me to be cautious.
After putting away the Divine Cauldron, Jared’s gaze shifted to Lyanna. He became misty-eyed as he looked down at her body on the ground.
It did not matter whether he had liked her or whether there had been any feelings between them. The fact that Lyanna had died because of him pained him deeply.
Jared walked to her side, crouched down, and gently carried her in his arms. He was planning to give her a proper burial.
“Jared, wait…” Axton called out as he approached Jared.
After checking on Lyanna’s condition, he took out a pill and slipped it into her mouth.
