Chapter 608 Deragons
A flash of solemnity crossed Jared’s face when he witnessed that scene.
He did not see the burly man use any magecraft or chant any spells, but the two women seemed to be bewitched,
obeying his every word. Admittedly, Jared was well aware that he himself did not possess such skills.
He knew he did not have the slightest chance at winning if the man decided to assault him. In fact, he might not
even manage a counterattack.
“Why are you following me?” Jared asked finally.
The corners of the burly man’s lips curled into a sneer at his question. “I was surprised that you found out I was
following you. I didn’t expect you to reach the Transcendence Phase. You must be an invincible existence in the
eyes of those so-called martial artists now.”
Instead of replying to Jared’s question, he pointed out his cultivation rank.

could feel the other party’s animosity toward him.
“Who are you? You must have at least reached the Transcendence Phase to be able to use spiritual sense to probe
around. However, you made those women leave with a single sentence. This shows that your abilities are superior
to that of the Transcendence Phase. Could it be you’ve already reached the Golden Core or Nascent Soul?” Jared
asked gravely.
The burly man regarded him disdainfully and said, “You don’t have to guess anymore. No matter what, you can
never attain my rank. Follow me obediently now, and I won’t hurt you.”
“Where are we going?” Jared asked.
“You don’t need to know that. You’ll find out when you get there.”
The man refused to divulge any information.
“I won’t follow a stranger if you don’t tell me.”
Jared refused to follow the man. Even if he knew he would lose to the latter, he would not blindly walk into a death
trap. Going down without a fight was not in keeping with his character.
“Do you think you’re in a position to choose?”
The man emanated his aura and engulfed Jared with it.
Feeling the aura envelop him, Jared swiftly unleashed the massive spiritual energy accumulated in his body to resist
the man’s aura.
Alas, Jared’s resistance was like a soft rock standing in the middle of the powerful streams of the rapids. It was frail
and caved within minutes. Unable to withstand the pressure any longer, he dropped to one knee and coughed out a
mouthful of blood.
“The scion of the Deragons is nothing but a mere skirt-chaser.” The man laughed tauntingly at Jared’s pathetic
state.
Gusts of blade-like wind blew with the man’s laugh, slashing across Jared’s body, drawing blood from each wound.

It was apparent that the man had no intention to kill Jared, or else the latter would have been dead long ago.
“Deragons? You know about my identity?” Jared frowned. He could not care much about his injuries but was curious
about the man’s utterance.
This man might have a clue about my background. I have always wanted to know my identity and who my
biological mother is. The young man had never given up on that thought ever since he found out that he was
adopted.
“If you want to know about your background, then follow me obediently, else you’ll have more wounds on your
body.”
The man retracted his aura. Almost instantly, Jared could feel the crushing pressure around him eased away.
Unable to adapt to the sudden change, he spurted out yet another mouthful of blood.
Seeing that Jared kept spitting out blood, the man shook his head. “You’re too weak. I thought you could resist my
aura since you reached the Transcendence Phase. However, your physical body is too frail. You haven’t even
strengthen your body. It’s fortunate that I only used a third of my strength, or you’ll be dead. If that happens, I
wouldn’t be able to claim the reward.”
Disdain filled the man’s eyes. Jared’s abilities were nothing to him.
