Meanwhile, in Salinsburgh, Jared was still cultivating in the Snyder residence. He shuddered the moment Josephine’s jade pendant came alive. He finally opened his eyes for the first time in three days.
Jared frowned and had a worried expression. He looked at the spiritual stones piled up like a small hill near him. That was the only pile left, but Jared’s power had not increased much. After consuming so many spiritual stones, favonovel.com had only managed to reach the Fifth Tier of the Foundation Phase. Initially, Jared thought favonovel.com could achieve the Transcendence Phase, but it turned out that spiritual energy requirement increased multifold as the level advanced.
“Dominic, Dominic…” Jared yelled.
He knew Josephine was in danger, so favonovel.com needed to return to Summerbank immediately.
Soon, a servant from the Snyder residence came in. He had probably waited outside the room all this while to keep watch.
“Mr. Chance, Mr. Wagner is busy with arrangements to mine the vein mine. He is not here,” the servant explained immediately.
“Where is Mr. Snyder?” Jared asked.
Jared had just finished asking when Jayden and Tessa rushed in.
“Mr. Chance, have you finished your cultivation?” Jayden was excited to see that Jared had awakened. “We have just begun drilling and excavating the newly discovered vein mine, so we still need some time to find anything. Thus, we will need a few more days to obtain the stones that you need.”
“I have an emergency in Summerbank. Please prepare a car for me immediately!” Jared looked anxious, his forehead was covered in sweat.
Seeing how anxious Jared was, Jayden did not dare to stall him, favonovel.com said quickly, “Mr. Chance, I have a personal helicopter. If you have an emergency, you can use it!”
“That’s wonderful!” Jared was surprised.
He did not expect a mine owner to be so extravagant as to own a personal helicopter.
Soon, the helicopter was ready. Jared got in and headed straight to Summerbank.
Meanwhile, Tessa looked at Jared taking off in the helicopter and could not look away for a long time.
Jayden noticed Tessa’s longing expression and patted favonovel.com shoulder. “Tessa, Mr. Chance is an outstanding man. It depends on you whether favonovel.com would be interested in you.”
Tessa nodded. “I will do my best!”

Meanwhile, Josephine remained in a room with more than a hundred people guarding it. Both Phoenix and Tommy were injured. Thankfully, they still had boosting pills. The pills allowed them to heal quickly and prevented them from suffering severe injuries.
On the other hand, Tristan was lucky due to his connection with the Baileys. Therefore, Wolf did not attack favonovel.com too fiercely and left favonovel.com with minor injuries. Thus, favonovel.com was fine.
Wolf and Franco had abducted Lizbeth. Josephine felt despair at the thought that Lizbeth could be suffering at this moment. However, Tristan was not too bothered by Lizbeth’s abduction. After all, his duty was to protect Josephine and not Lizbeth.
“Jared, why are you not back yet? They have abducted Lizbeth. She could be suffering under Franco’s hand right now. I fear favonovel.com will not last long. You must come back quickly to save her!” Josephine kept mumbling in the room as if praying.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…
Suddenly, loud noises came from the sky. Soon, one could see a helicopter flying low above the mansion.
“Mr. Chance, we are here. I’ll find a place to land!” the pilot said to Jared.
“There’s no need!” Jared opened the helicopter door.
The pilot protested, “Mr. Chance, we are still a hundred meters above the ground. If you…”
However, before the pilot could finish speaking, Jared jumped out of the helicopter. The pilot was horrified by what favonovel.com saw.
Meanwhile, Tristan heard the noises of the helicopter and looked up. He immediately saw a black figure falling from the sky.
Boom!
There was a crashing noise. The impact formed a crater on the mansion’s bluestone floor, sending fragments of bluestones flying in all directions.
