An Understated Dominance Chapter 1972 –“Presumptuous! Who do you think you are? How dare you say such nonsense?”

Seeing that his fiancée was being threatened, Jackson couldn’t help but become furious.

He originally intended to keep things quiet and not cause trouble.

He didn’t expect the people of the Fantasy Sea Alliance to be so arrogant and domineering. They didn’t even pay attention to the Embersteel Order and blatantly took things by force. It was really too much.

“you……”

The middle-aged man raised his hand and interrupted the Fantasy Sea Alliance member as he was about to speak, saying, “Guys, treasures are all external possessions, and they are not worth mentioning compared to your own lives. This is the truth. You don’t understand, right?” “So what if you understand?” Jackson narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Now that you understand, you should hand over the treasure.” The middle-aged man said calmly, “As the saying goes, you can avoid disaster by losing money. After we get the treasure, we will leave immediately, and we will never embarrass you. How about it?”

“You’re dreaming!” Sophia glared and shouted, “Even if I die, I will never hand over my treasure to you despicable people!”

As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged man’s face instantly became gloomy.

Behind him, a group of members of the Fantasy Sea Alliance showed their fierce looks and were sharpening their knives.

“Elder Lucius! Why are you talking so much nonsense to them? Just k!ll them all!”

“That’s right! We have a large number of people, so are we still afraid of these little minions?”

“It’s not the first time we’ve done this kind of thing, killing people and stealing goods. There’s nothing to be scrupulous about!”

The members of the Fantasy Sea Alliance were all talking and shouting.

In their eyes, both Jackson and Sophia were lambs to be slaughtered.

If they were honest and obedient and handed over the treasure, they could still be lenient.

But if they don’t listen, they will only die.

A member of the Fantasy Sea Alliance whispered, “Elder Lucius, if you are afraid of the power of the Embersteel Order, I think there is no need to do so. Although the Embersteel Order is powerful, there are only a few people at the moment, so there is nothing to fear. As long as we eradicate the roots and do it cleanly, who will doubt us?”

Hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but raise his brows, obviously impressed.

The reason he didn’t rush to take action was because he was worried about the majesty of the Embersteel Order.

But then he thought about it: this place was deserted and uninhabited. No matter what they did, no one would know.

Therefore, as long as the murderer was killed and silenced, there would be no worries.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man puffed up his chest, and his eyes became particularly sharp: “I will give you one last chance to hand over the treasure immediately, so that I can give your life; otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!”

“If you want to steal our Harmony Sect’s treasure, it depends on whether you have the ability!” Sophia was not afraid at all.

With her swords outstretched, she looked like she was coming with a horse.

These two knives were called Harmony Swords. One was long, and the other was short. They were the unique weapons of the Harmony Sect.

They were dazzling and radiating with cold light.

“Huh! You don’t know how to live or die!”

The middle-aged man’s face darkened, and he shouted sternly, “K!ll her! Don’t let anyone go!”

“yes!”

After receiving the order, dozens of members of the Fantasy Sea Alliance immediately surrounded and killed them.

In this inaccessible place, they bought goods without any burden.

“Sophia! Let me come!”

Seeing the members of the Fantasy Sea Alliance taking action, Jackson took the lead without fear of death.

Let alone put his fiancée in danger; even if an unrelated warrior was bullied, he would not stand idly by.

“k!ll!”

The disciples of the Embersteel Order followed closely behind, outnumbered and outnumbered, without any fear.

“Senior Jaden! Let’s go up to support!”

Several Harmony Sect disciples were about to take action, but Sophia raised her hand to stop them: “Wait! We just consumed a lot of energy and were injured, respectively. We should not hold back at this time. We should leave here first.”

“Huh? Leave?”

Upon hearing this, several Harmony Sect disciples were stunned.

The allies of the Embersteel Order were fighting bravely for them. If they left at this time, wouldn’t they be crossing the river and burning the bridge?

“Senior Jaden and Senior Hawk stood up for us, so it’s inappropriate for us to just walk away like this, right?” A female disciple from the Harmony Sect frowned slightly.

“What’s inappropriate? Our combat power is greatly reduced now. If we rush forward, we will only die in vain. We might as well take this opportunity to retreat in time to preserve our strength and look for opportunities for revenge in the future.” Sophia looked matter-of-fact.

“Senior Jaden, the Embersteel Order has good relations with our Harmony Sect. Now that Senior Hawk and the others are in danger, how can we ignore them?” The female disciple couldn’t bear it.

The Fantasy Sea Alliance would have surrounded and killed them if Jackson hadn’t intervened just now.

However, Jackson stood in front and took all the pressure for them.

If they watch the fire from the other side and do nothing to save them, what is the difference between them and those despicable people?

“Senior Hawk is generous and righteous. I will keep it in mind. However, the overall situation must be put first. In our current situation, going to help will not be of any use. Instead, it will involve yourself. The best choice is to escape!”

Sophia said with a serious face, “As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won’t have to worry about running out of firewood. When we get through this and bring the treasure back to the master, I will definitely avenge Senior Hawk.”

“revenge?”

Hearing this, several Harmony Sect disciples looked strange.

Everyone is dead; what’s the use of revenge?

“Senior Jaden, Senior Hawk is your fiancé!” The female disciple of the Harmony Sect frowned.

“so what?”

Sophia’s face turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, “I said everything is based on the overall situation. Now retreat immediately. If anyone dares to disobey, don’t blame me for turning against others.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Sophia turned around and ran away without any hesitation.

Several Harmony Sect disciples glanced at Jackson, who was fighting so hard, gritted their teeth, and left cruelly.

“Sophia! Go quickly! I’ll block it for you.”

While Jackson was fighting, he was also concerned about the safety of Sophia Jaden and others.

However, when he turned around, he found that there was no one behind him.
