The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance)
Chapter 213

"Renee!"

Upon seeing that his daughter had regained consciousness, Erasmus instantly rushed over with all the excitement in the world.

"Dad..."

Renee glanced around the room with a lost look in her eyes. At the sight of the crowd milling around, apprehension promptly swamped her.

"You scared me to death, Renee! Do you know you had been unconscious for several days?"

Tears streamed down Erasmus' face.

Although it was said that cultivators needed to sever all emotional attachments when they embarked on the path to immortality, few could actually do it.

"Do you believe me now, Master Erasmus?" With a sneer on his face, Falcon drawled, "But let me tell you something-this is just a temporary fix. If I don't do anything to treat Renee, she'll still revert to her initial state. Also, I'll be so kind to tell you that I'm the only person who can cure her of her frosty constituent in this whole world! All others are charlatans! If you've made up your mind, kick all these charlatans out!"

"Who are you calling a charlatan? You look more like one yourself! Stop blowing your own trumpet with that worthless thing that's no more than a bronze mirror! If you're so great, throw it away, and we shall see who's better!" Josephine stepped forward and snapped viciously, long since sick of the man's arrogance.

As Falcon stared at Josephine, who stood out, a flash of something glinted in his eyes. He didn't fly into a rage but leered at her with a salacious look in his eyes. "Others may all scram, but this lady can stay. I love such a feral temperament!"

"What a piece of trash!"

Josephine spat at him hard as she said that.

At that, Falcon was momentarily stunned before he wiped the spit off his face. His temper spiked at once. "Do you believe that I'll finish you off right this instance, you

b*tch?"

Seeing that he had gone off the deep end, Josephine instinctively backed up a step. Meanwhile, Jared took a step forward and shielded her behind him.

Eyeing the man disdainfully, he scoffed, "You're acting all high and mighty because of the Starry Compass, no? How are you different from a good-for-nothing without it? This Starry Compass is a magical item, but it's an utter waste in your possession! If one cultivates with it, only half the effort is required to achieve double the results! Alas, a useless piece of trash like you have no idea how to use it!"

Falcon was startled, and red-hot fury swiftly blazed through him because Jared was right-it was all thanks to the Starry Compass that he managed to defeat Leonidas and heal Renee. Without it, he was nothing at all!

"This is pure envy, kid! You're simply jealous that I've got a magical item such as the Starry Compass! If you're so great, take a magical item out as well! What are you going to use to absorb the frosty energy from Renee?" Falcon demanded

provocatively.

"I'm the greatest magical item myself, so why do I need to use anything else? Only ineffectual people use so-called magical items!" Jared derided with a snort.

Following that, Falcon's expression darkened even further. Leonidas likewise wore a grim look since the man's scornful remark struck a raw nerve in him. After all, he had also used the jade scepter to treat Renee earlier.

"Are you saying that you want to absorb the frosty energy in Renee directly into your body?" Falcon questioned.

"Exactly!" Jared nodded placidly.

"Haha... What a joke! Renee has a frosty constituent, and that's the only reason she managed to withstand the frosty energy within her for so many years. If it were the average person, he wouldn't be able to survive for even a day! Yet, you dare say that you'll use your body to absorb the frosty energy? If you really have that capability, you can ask anything of me! However, if you fail to do so, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy. You'll have to get on your knees before me and apologize. Also, the girl behind you has to warm my bed!"

Falcon's eyes brimmed with malice, making goosebumps rise all over Josephine.

"Are you sick of living?" Jared's eyes narrowed, and a murderous aura radiated off him in a flash.

While he and Josephine hadn't yet confirmed their relationship, they were both aware of the other's feelings.

Therefore, he had already regarded her as his girlfriend and would never stand idly by while she was harassed.
