Jalen was an arrogant man. He was not a coward. However, Darryl's beating of him at the Sunflower Secret Realm traumatized him after the fight.
Knowing Darryl had assistance from the Blazing Tiger, he did not stay long.
Darryl laughed as he watched Jalen flee. He was relieved at the same time. 'Fortunately, I scared him away. Otherwise, fighting with him will be difficult.'
Darryl was thinking to himself when the Blazing Tiger approached and roared at him in thanks.
Darryl nodded and smiled.
