Jared fell silent after hearing what Beatrice said. Should I hate this father whom I have never even met? I don’t get it… Why would he abandon his wife and son? What kind of person was he?
He wanted to tell Beatrice about Dragon Sect, but he didn’t want to worry her unnecessarily. “It’s getting late, Mom. You should get some sleep,” Jared said as he stood up and got ready to leave.
“Don’t forget that I’m waiting to have grandkids, Jared. Now that you have so many girlfriends, I’m sure you’ll be able to have some kids with them!” Beatrice reminded him.
“I know, Mom,” Jared replied with a nod. Since Jared had successfully rescued Beatrice, there was no need for him to hold back anymore. Although he had done the deed with Feenix, Jared felt bad when he thought about Josephine.
After all, Josephine was his first girlfriend, and yet, he was unable to save his first time for her. Jared then decided to make a trip to Divine Quest Sect’s secret realm to visit Josephine, Melanie, and the others.
He was about to head out the next morning when Cecilia stopped him. She knew that Jared would surely go visit Josephine after returning to Jadeborough.
“You can’t go, Jared! Things have changed now! You remember how powerful Tanner is, don’t you? What if you get detained in that secret realm when you visit Josephine? Do you think. that you are currently powerful enough to escape Tanner? Right now, you should focus on getting stronger and deal with Evil Heart Sect’s forces!” Cecilia said.
Thanks to her leadership experience, Cecilia sounded really convincing and persuasive. That, combined with her beautiful appearance, melted Jared’s heart instantly.
“All right; I’ll do as you say and focus on dealing with the Eight Major Secret Realms to eliminate all the purple-robed emissaries,” Jared replied with a nod. “I think you should go see Mr. Sanders. Hel might be able to lend you a hand,” Cecilia suggested. Jared nodded once again. “Sure thing!” Since Jared still lacked the power to rescue Josephine and the others, he decided to take Cecilia’s advice.
In order to rescue Josephine and the others, Jared would have to destroy the Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation. Given his current power level, Jared was no match for Tanner of the Evil Heart Sect at all. Xavier was waiting at the front gate when Jared showed up at the Department of Justice.
“Looks like Mr. Sanders was right. He figured you would come to see him after returning to Jadeborough, Xavier said with a smile..
“Mr. Sanders knows I’m back?” Jared was a little surprised. “Of course! He knows pretty much everything that goes on in Jadeborough! Here, come with me,” Xavier replied as he led Jared straight to Arthur’s office.
After entering the office, Jared realized that something was off about Arthur. Upon closer inspection, he sensed that Arthur’s aura was lacking something.
“Are you ill, Mr. Sanders?” Jared asked. Arthur shook his head and motioned at Xavier to leave them. “Take a seat…” Arthur then waited for Jared to sit down in front of him before continuing, “Looks like it has been a fruitful trip, huh?”
Jared nodded, “Indeed. I became a lot more powerful and got some divine weapons too.”
“Those divine weapons can only unleash ten percent of their full power in your hands. You will have to work a lot harder!” Arthur said with a smile. “You know what I have, Mr. Sanders?” Jared exclaimed in shock and confusion.
