A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5561

At that moment, Jared was in the void. When he slowly opened his eyes, he found himself in an unknown starry sky. In the area, countless meteors were streaking by, and they were all engulfed in flames.

Jared's own body was burning, yet he no longer felt any pain, as if his body no longer belonged to him.

Boom!

Suddenly, there was a deafening sound. Then, in Jared's line of sight, countless meteors shattered instantly, exploding like fireworks. It was a truly dazzling spectacle.

Jared was filled with confusion, unable to understand what kind of power could pulverize so many meteors.

Just then, a cold voice suddenly sounded. "You're actually able to regain consciousness under this Voidfire..."

Jared quickly looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man standing about three hundred meters away.

The man wore a robe. With a stern expression, he stood with his hands clasped behind his back, exuding an imposing aura of authority.

When Jared saw the man, he felt his heart sink from an inexplicable pressure that made him feel a little terrified.

"Sir, where is this place?" Jared quickly asked in a polite manner.

When dealing with someone of unknown identity and power, politeness was paramount, lest arrogance lead to one's death.

The man looked at Jared and smiled faintly. "This is not any particular place..."

The man's words left Jared utterly bewildered, but he dared not press further, afraid of angering him.

"Sir, could you please tell me who you are?" Jared asked.

Since Jared didn't know where he was, he decided to try and ascertain the man's identity.

If the man were an enemy, Jared would need to find a way to escape; he couldn't just wait here to die.

Jared could only come up with this explanation. If the man was from the Celestial Palace, not a low-ranking cultivator, and didn't know Onneas, he must be an older figure of the Celestial Palace.

Over the passage of time and the change of personnel, it would be normal for older figures not to recognize the newcomers.

"You are very smart." The man's eyes flashed with surprise; he didn't think Jared could guess it.

"However, I am not some elder of the Celestial Palace, because I am the one who founded the Celestial Palace," he added.

As soon as the man finished speaking, Jared became utterly shocked. He never expected the seemingly stern man before him to be the founder of the Celestial Palace.

"Then wouldn't that make you the first Celestial King of the Celestial Palace?" Jared asked, his breathing becoming quicker.

"You could say that..." The man nodded, then asked, "How did you get here?"

"I don't know either. I simply opened a void passage to level eight from level seven. As soon as I entered the passage, my entire body began to burn. By the time I opened my eyes again, I was already here," Jared explained.
