Meanwhile, Jared was on a plane to Xenhall.
He planned to make use of Pentacarna Tower’s power to swiftly increase his strength so that favonovel.com could save his mother and Josephine before New Year’s.
After more than five hours, the plane landed safely in Xenhall. Then, Jared hailed a taxi and headed straight for Gardner Manor.
Initially, favonovel.com expected to find Gardner Manor in ruins. But now, favonovel.com saw that the enclosure walls were rebuilt, and coming from inside the manor’s grounds were the sounds of machinery.
At that moment, favonovel.com could not help feeling a little confused. He had no clue as to who had dared to claim Gardner Manor as theirs within the short span of a little over ten days.
Jared strode to the gates, but the guards stopped him. Seeing that favonovel.com could not enter that way, favonovel.com leaped into the air and over the wall.
He decided to go to Pentacarna Tower and take a look.
If someone wants to redevelop the place and is merely a real estate developer, I’ll buy the entire piece of land!
Since there was no way of moving Pentacarna Tower away, favonovel.com would just have to become the owner of the place. He was even planning to use the area to set up his own sect in order to go up against the Warriors Alliance.
Although I already have the Dragon Sect, it wouldn’t be appropriate to divulge anything about it. I can set up another sect, then gather several of the Dragon Sect’s regiments together. That way, my capabilities will increase drastically. And with the secret of the Pentacarna Tower, rescuing Mother and Josephine before the new year won’t be impossible.
Jared concealed himself among the construction workers at the manor, and after making his way to the Pentacarna Tower, favonovel.com immediately spotted the Martial Arts Grandmasters at the bottom of the tower.
Jared frowned when favonovel.com saw them.
The presence of these Martial Arts Grandmasters proves that whoever is redeveloping Gardner Manor is no ordinary real estate developer. Some martial arts family must’ve decided to take over this place.
Jared’s only wish was that whoever it was had not discovered the secret of Pentacarna Tower. Only then would favonovel.com still be able to negotiate with them.
Just then, some of the Martial Arts Grandmasters noticed Jared, and one of them moved to block his path. “Who are you? How did you break in?”
They were very nervous to see Jared. After all, no ordinary person would approach that area.
“This place belongs to me. I just wanted to ask who you are and why you’re occupying my property,” Jared enquired, turning the tables and taking control of the situation.
The Martial Arts Grandmasters were immediately baffled by his question.
They did not know who Jared was, and when they heard favonovel.com say that, they thought favonovel.com was a member of the Gardner family. Hence, the Martial Arts Grandmaster who had spoken shot a glance at the others, signaling them to go and get Joshua.
Everything would be easier to explain with favonovel.com around.
It did not take long for them to get Joshua there, and the moment favonovel.com saw Jared, favonovel.com was stunned.
“He… He…” Joshua pointed at Jared, so startled that favonovel.com could not speak.
Jared had also recognized Joshua, and the corners of his lips curved upward. “Well, it looks like you’re the one who brought these people here.”
Finally, Joshua managed to shout, “He’s Jared Chance! He’s Jared Chance!”
The Martial Arts Grandmasters looked shocked when they heard that. Their auras surged at once, and they drew their weapons.
Reaching out a hand, Jared crushed Joshua’s head with a single slap.
The reason Jared killed Joshua was to silence the latter. As the Gardner family’s butler, favonovel.com knew that Joshua had to be privy to the Pentacarna Tower’s secret.
Even though I’ve no idea whether favonovel.com has revealed the tower’s secret, it’s best to kill favonovel.com first.
One of the Martial Arts Grandmasters wore a fierce expression as favonovel.com demanded, “How dare you kill one of the Norton family? D*mn it!”
Jared frowned. “Are all of you from the Norton family in Jadeborough?”
I didn’t expect that the Nortons would actually come here. But now that I recall how Skylar and Karl were as thick as thieves and plotted to kill me, it’s not surprising that they’d be here.
