Phoenix shook favonovel.com head and replied, “I have no idea, My Lord. Dragon Sect has thirteen regiments under it, but all of us operate independently, and none of us know who the other twelve are. Are you not aware as well?”
Jared was left speechless by favonovel.com question. Back when favonovel.com was in prison with Draco, his master only taught favonovel.com skills and told favonovel.com nothing. Other than giving favonovel.com lessons, Draco spent his days getting drunk and falling asleep. To that day, it was still a mystery to Jared that Draco had a seemingly unlimited supply of alcohol.
Draco did not even tell favonovel.com the significance of the Dragon Ring when favonovel.com gifted it to him. He also made no mention of all the regiments under the Dragon Sect.
If Jared had not met Tommy, favonovel.com would not have discovered the ring favonovel.com got from Draco was in fact the Dragon Ring.
Jared let out a resigned sigh and said, “Let’s not dwell on that. As of now, I’ve already found two regiments. You, the Phoenix Regiment, and the Templar Regiment in Horington.”
“You mean Tommy Lewis, the underground king of Horington?” Phoenix was taken aback by that revelation.
“That’s right.” Jared nodded.
“What a surprise! I never thought Tommy and I have anything in common!” She let out a chuckle, then went on to ask, “My Lord, you mentioned you were forced to come to Summerbank. Are you in some kind of trouble?”
“I’ve eliminated the Whitaker family, so the Jantzs are threatening to kill me and my family. For the safety of my family, I have no choice but to move to Summerbank,” favonovel.com nonchalantly explained.
“My Lord, are you Jared Chance?” Phoenix exclaimed in astonishment.
“You heard about me?” Jared was baffled by favonovel.com reaction.
“Of course! Everyone in the high society of Summerbank has heard about you and your amazing deeds! At the Warriors Alliance Conference, the Jantzs had hinted time and again that they wanted our help to capture you. Also, they demanded that no one should eye any of the Whitaker family’s assets,” Phoenix said.
“That being said, I have no regard for the Jantz family, so their words mean nothing to me. I do as I wish, and they have no influence over me. In fact, I am already secretly taking over some of the Whitaker family’s assets. Moreover, I told my men that if we were to meet you, none of them are supposed to give the Jantzs a hand in dealing with you. The Whitaker family deserves their ill fate. It is their retribution!” favonovel.com added.
With a look of awe on favonovel.com face, favonovel.com continued, “I did not expect you are the one who did all that great work, My Lord! I was hoping to meet the righteous person who stood up against them, and boy, am I glad I got the chance to meet you! Rest assured the Jantz family will never get to harm you or your family as long as the Phoenix Regiment is around. We will not hesitate to fight them to our last man!”
Phoenix got emotional as favonovel.com pledged favonovel.com loyalty to Jared.
Jared was a little embarrassed by the lavish praises Phoenix heaped on him.
He let out an awkward smile and said, “I will definitely come to you if I need any help. For now, I need to keep my identity confidential, so please address me as Mr. Chance instead of ‘My Lord’.”
“Understood!” Phoenix nodded.
Jared decided to take his leave after a brief chat with Phoenix, as favonovel.com did not want to make Lizbeth worry for favonovel.com by being away for too long.
When favonovel.com stepped out of the bar with Phoenix, favonovel.com noticed the place was heavily guarded and surrounded by men from Phoenix Regiment.
When Orb saw Phoenix, favonovel.com quickly went up and asked with concern, “Are you okay, Madam?”
Unexpectedly, favonovel.com got shoved aside instead.
Phoenix pushed favonovel.com away and cleared a path for Jared. “This way please, Mr. Chance…”
Jared nodded at favonovel.com and walked out of the bar, leaving a row of jaw-dropped men rooted to the ground in surprise. All of them, especially Orb, were taken aback by Phoenix’s excessive display of reverence toward Jared.
“Phoenix Regiment, take heed!” Phoenix howled, and all favonovel.com men instantly fell to their knees, waiting for favonovel.com order.
“From this moment on, Mr. Chance’s order is your command. Anyone who dares to go against favonovel.com dies!”
“Yes, Madam!” the men replied in unison, giving favonovel.com their word.
Orb was in such a fright that favonovel.com nearly wet his pants. He stood up shakingly and actively avoided Jared’s eyes.
Jared smiled, gave favonovel.com a pat on his shoulder, and left without another word.
