Chapter 187 Chased Out
When Maria thought about how the mansion cost billions, she could not help but remember how she had looked upon him with disdain because of his poor family. Her father had to force her before she helped him look for a job. Upon recalling all these, she blushed.
Meanwhile, Lydia stared at Jared’s car until its headlights left her vision. Still, she fixed her gaze on the road toward the top of the hill unblinkingly. The shock was so great that she was paralyzed to the spot.
“Chase them all out for me! Don’t let them enter the district in the future!” instructed Mark loudly.
The security guards quickly chased Zayne and the rest out. As Zayne was simply too shocked, he insisted on heading to the top of the hill to see whether Jared was boasting. However, after being struck a few times by the baton, he left obediently.
After Jared drove to the mansion and entered, he discovered that it was extremely clean and spotless. Josephine probably sent someone to clean the place. She had always hoped to convince her parents and invite them to stay there. However, Jared didn’t want to discuss it yet as his parents were happily fussing over Jared and Hilda. If she told them now, they might not even believe her.
Sitting on the sofa, Jared took out the meat reishi mushroom and placed it on the table. Sensing the rich spiritual energy exuding from it, he was overcome with excitement.
It was exceedingly rare to find these meat reishi mushrooms. Ideally, he would reach another breakthrough after absorbing them.
Jared had already found the perfect training technique. If he wanted to increase his abilities, the only element lacking was spiritual energy. However, there was a lack of spiritual energy on Earth. It was only at the top of hills where the spiritual energy would be more concentrated. If Jared wanted to increase his abilities quickly, he needed to seek out other solutions.
After thinking about it for a while, Jared calmed himself down. He summoned the Focus Technique slowly and was soon enveloped by a faint mist.
As if it could feel something, the meat reishi mushroom in the glass bottle started twisting around frantically, looking like it wanted to escape the bottle.
However, no matter how vigorously the meat reishi mushroom turned, its attempts proved futile. Soon, it stopped moving. At a spot that resembled its eyes, pink gas gushed out and floated toward Jared.
He opened his mouth slowly and inhaled forcefully. The pink gas suddenly accelerated and was absorbed into his body. Meanwhile, the meat reishi mushroom quickly shrunk. Its initially fair surface, which looked like a youthful girl’s skin, started to become wrinkly and dry.
Soon, the meat reishi mushroom turned into a pile of powder which ended up being absorbed into Jared’s body. Meanwhile, Jared sat on the couch with his eyes slightly closed.
Time passed gradually. After a long time, when the sky was about to darken, Jared finally opened his eyes slowly.
Delighted, he quickly checked his abdomen. However, other than having more spiritual energy, he did not manage to advance to the next level.
Jared sighed heavily. In the end, he got up and left the mansion.
Driving the damaged Ford, he left Dragon Bay and parked his car at a repair shop. He planned to hail a taxi home instead.
However, just when he was waiting beside the road, a red BMW suddenly stopped in front of him. The car window rolled down, and Maria stuck her head out. “Where are you going, Jared? I’ll give you a ride.”
Jared was taken aback, unused to Maria’s sudden change in attitude.
