Kaison appeared equally shocked by Roman’s words, as the Archaic Body cultivators had historically been at odds with the Tall family So why would the leader of the Archaic Body cultivators want to go to the Tall residence?
Was he not afraid of getting imprisoned? Nevertheless, while the others were lost in their confused thoughts, Roman turned and started making his way in the direction of the Tall residence. Jared had no choice but to lead Cloud and the rest after him.
Beau and the wandering cultivators went their own way. Along the way, although Jared wanted to ask Roman why he dared to head to the Tall residence, he never managed to voice his question out loud.
After almost an entire day of traveling, they finally arrived at the Tall residence. Mason seemed to have predicted their arrival. He was already waiting for them at the entrance.
To everyone’s surprise, not only was the air between Mason and Roman not tense, but the two leaders even smiled at each other. Jared felt his scalp tingle when he saw that. Something in his mind told him that the two men had been tricking him all along.
“Mason…”
Kaison walked up in a daze. He wanted to ask his brother what was going on and why they were not capturing the leader of the Archaic Body cultivators. Mason waved his hand and said to Roman, “The banquet is ready. Please come this way.”
Roman led Vasily and the rest of his men into the residence. Jared followed them, and when he reached Mason, he asked, “Mr. Mason, what’s going on?”
“Mr. Chance, we’ll explain this to you soon,” Mason said with a smile.
“Jared!”
When Feenix and Aislin saw Jared, they both threw themselves at him. They cared not about the rest of the people around them as they embraced Jared tightly. Viola was overwhelmed with mixed feelings when she saw that.
Although she knew that Jared had other women and she had imagined a scene like this, she still felt ill at ease to witness it with her own two eyes.
After all, she had been the only one by Jared’s side, receiving his full attention. She felt unused to the fact now that there were other women around who demanded his attention.
“Feenix, Aislin, this is Viola, the one I talked to you about. She’s the one who has been taking care of me while I’m in the Ethereal Realm,” Jared said.
Both Feenix and Aislin smiled at Viola. “Viola, you look like a goddess. No wonder Master can’t get enough of you.” Feenix beamed.
“Hello, Viola.” Aislin politely extended her hand for a handshake. Neither seemed upset about Viola’s relationship. with Jared. After all, they were not surprised and were used to Jared’s relationships with other women.
Viola was the only one who wasn’t used to it yet. When Viola saw how courteous Feenix and Aislin were to her and how unhostile they were, she felt guilty.
“Hello,” she finally greeted. As Cloud and Kaison observed the interaction, they were filled with envy.
“Mr. Chance, the banquet is ready. Let’s go,” Mason urged. If they were to start a conversation then and there, it would take them years to finish.
“Sure.” Jared followed Mason to the dining room.
“Kaison, I’ll leave the others to you. Remember to take good care of them. Everyone who’s here at the Tall residence is a guest of ours,” Mason said.
“Got it.” Mason nodded. Even though he did not understand why his brother was so polite to the Archaic Body cultivators, he had to obey his words. He dared not go against the head of the Tall family’s orders.
Besides Quinley, no one else in the Tall family dared to disobey Mason.
