Meanwhile, at the Department of Justice int Jadeborough, Arthur was writing something. down when his hand trembled all of a sudden, and he ended up smudging the paper as at result.
Since he had ruined his perfectly neat handwriting, Arthur put the calligraphy brush down and slowly walked out of the room. “The inevitable is finally here. Are you ready, Jared?” he mumbled to himself while staring at the night sky.
He dashed through the sky at lightning speed.. Moments later, he landed inside a courtyard, which was brightly lit despite it being very late at night.
A few girls could be seen sweating profusely as they cultivated in the courtyard. They quickly got into a straight line and greeted Arthur respectfully when they saw him arrive. Arthur flashed them a satisfied smile and nodded in response.
“Why are you up so late, Mr. Sanders?” asked one of the girls, who wore a white dress and had exquisite facial features. That girl was none other than Cecilia. The girls standing next to her were Lyanna, Millie, and Astrid.
Each of those girls had received Arthur’s cultivation technique, which he had passed on to them. The cultivation technique differed for each of them as it was based on their unique characteristics.
“You girls don’t have much time left. If you wish to remain by Jared’s side, then you will have to work even harder. It’s possible that Jared will soon leave this place and head toward a much better one. He has his own responsibilities to fulfill, so you girls must not get in his way. Is that understood?” Arthur said sternly.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Sanders! We’ll work hard! We’re willing to sacrifice everything for Jared’s sake!” Cecilia replied firmly. Arthur flashed her a smile before disappearing in an instant.
“Let’s keep it up, girls! We need to strengthen ourselves if we are to stay with Jared!” Cecilia said, prompting the other girls to continue their training.
Meanwhile, within the secret realm, Matthew was finally able to cultivate after taking two days to calm himself down. Archer and Skyler remained by his side to guard him and ensure his safety while Jared set up arcane arrays around the cave.”
He also gathered herbs from the surroundings and synthesized pills to help speed up Matthew’s recovery. If Jared remained idle, the elderly man dwelling within his body would nag him non-stop all day.
While Jared was about to head out and gather some more herbs that day, a group of people were approaching the cave. The one leading the group was none other than Great Diviner of Divination Sect. The direction in which Great Diviner’s finger was pointing kept changing as they moved forward.
“Master, are you sure Matthew and the others are nearby? It’s been a few days. They’ve probably gotten far away by now,” asked one of the Divination Sect disciples.
“Shut up! How dare you question Master’s divination arts? Do you have a death wish or something?” another disciple snapped at him.
“They’re not far away. We’ll find them soon,” Great Diviner said. After Jared and the others had escaped, Great Diviner had been secretly pinpointing their location using his divination art.
Great Diviner was extremely curious about Jared’s identity after witnessing his ability to command all those demon beasts. Jared had displayed terrifying levels of strength despite his low cultivation level.
That only fueled Great Diviner’s curiosity toward him even further. When Wrey and the others were not pursuing. Jared, Great Diviner quickly located Jared and led his disciples on a search for him..
Right as Great Diviner and his disciples. approached the cave, however, they were surrounded by a very bright light. The next thing they knew, spiritual energy chains had. appeared and tied them all up.
Great Diviner and his disciples were all shocked. None of them had expected to run. into an arcane array at a place like this. However, that also meant Great Diviner was right about Jared and the others being inside that cave.
