Chapter 843: I May Be Incompetent, But I’m Now at the Seventh Stage

Tina's lips curved slightly as she spoke in a calm, measured tone. "Grandpa Langdon, such big words. Are you trying to say that the Langdon family no longer sees the government as relevant?"

Grandpa Langdon snorted coldly. "My loyalty to the government is not for a little girl like you to question. Do you think having the Brookes and Farrell families backing you allows you to act recklessly? Today, I'll deal with you. And after that, the Brookes and Farrell families will follow. Their downfall will be because of your foolishness!"

Tina chuckled, her smile wild and defiant. "Foolish? I think I'm quite clever, actually."

"Enough talk. I'll send you to the underworld right now!" Grandpa Langdon declared, striking out at Tina with a palm.

Though the strike appeared light, it carried the force of a fifth-stage master. If it landed, Tina wouldn't survive unscathed-if she survived at all.

But Tina stood firmly in place, unmoving.

Grandpa Langdon sneered. Did she really think a small protective shield could withstand the power of a fifth-stage master? Absurd!

Yet, in the next moment, his smile froze. He stared at Tina in disbelief, then shifted his gaze to Jared.

With a casual movement of his arm, Jared effortlessly dissipated Grandpa Langdon's energy attack.

It was too easy-like swatting away a mosquito.

But this wasn't just any energy attack; it was a strike infused with eighty percent of a fifth-stage master's power. How could Jared block it so effortlessly?

Unwilling to accept this, Grandpa Langdon activated his energy again, his voice cold. "It seems I need to take this seriously."

This time, he unleashed his full strength, directing the attack toward both Jared and Tina.

But even at full strength, Jared met him with nothing more than his hands. He didn't even take a single step back.
