Jared briefly recounted everything to Quinley, Feenix, and the others. Only then did they realize the intricate emotional entanglement between the Tall family and the Archaic Body cultivators They couldn’t help but regard Hester with a sympathetic look.
After all, Hester had put in so much effort, expending vast resources to maintain Ginevra’s soul, even going to the extent of letting her become the countess of Jipsdale while he busied himself with all other affairs.
In the end, his efforts only benefitted another. Such sacrifice and devotion were truly beyond what an average person could muster
Hester and Roman took the main seats while Ginevra and Mason stood before them hand in hand. Their union was a testament to love eventually finding its way. Although the wedding was modest, it was apparent that the couple was overjoyed
With Jared and the others bearing witness, the duo knelt down and bowed deeply to Roman and Hester
At that moment, Mason truly submitted himself to Hester. They were love rivals in the past, but now, he willingly addressed the latter with respect Hester’s magnanimity was not a trait commonly displayed by ordinary men.
After the simple wedding ceremony, Mason and Ginevra planned to leave. From then on, Ginevra would no longer be present in Jipsdale.
It was also time for the two-story building and the Soul Nourishing Formation to vanish.
“Mr. Chance, I entrust my little sister to you. I hope you can protect her. She made the decision to walk down this path, and I won’t stop her. I trust her judgment, too. Given your capabilities, you’ll surely stand out in the future, Mr. Chance. If you’re ever in need of assistance, come to the far north to seek me out. From now on, we’re family,” Mason said to Jared prior to his departure.
“Rest assured, Mr. Mason. I won’t let any harm befall them as long as I’m alive. However, I cannot be overly emotionally invested in the girls at the moment because I still have many tasks on hand.” Jared knew he couldn’t always solely indulge himself in romance.
“A man should be ambitious and not be held back by women. Since Quinley chose to be with you, I trust she’ll stay by your side no matter the challenges. I have faith in the daughter of the Tall family, but if you ever betray her, you should be prepared to face the consequences.” Even though Mason spoke in a gentle tone, a hint of warning laced his voice.
“Mason, what are you talking about?” Quinley was displeased when she heard her brother warning Jared.
Mason laughed in response. “You two aren’t even officially dating, yet you’re already speaking up for him. The saying that women’s loyalty toward their family would sway upon growing up couldn’t be more true.”
“Jared, you should practice extra caution now that you’ve offended the Demon Seal Alliance. Also, Thunderhawk has been searching for you,” Hester reminded Jared.
“The Demon Seal Alliance upholds the pretense of slaying demons and keeping peace but actually conspires with demons in secret, cultivating demons in hopes of harnessing their power to control the entire Ethereal Realm. As despicable as they are, I don’t fear them at all! And now that Yuven has regained his strength, I believe our combined forces will be sufficient to .put up a fight against Thunderhawk,” Jared said confidently.
If Yuven hadn’t recovered, Jared would undoubtedly have avoided a confrontation with Thunderhawk, but now that Yuven had recovered, Jared had nothing to be afraid of.
“You may not be scared of the Demon Seal Alliance, but since they can collude with demons, they’re capable of anything. Can you still ensure the safety of the women by your side?” Hester asked.
Jared immediately turned to look at Aislin, Feenix, Viola, and Quinley. Their cultivation levels are not high. If the Demon Seal Alliance truly targets them, I indeed can’t be sure I can perfectly safeguard these girls.
