It turned out Oakley meant the Village of Villains had run out of resources for cultivation, including herbs, pills, and crystals.
With an unconcerned smile on his face, Jared replied to Oakley, “Don’t worry. I don’t need any resources from here for my cultivation, I brought my own supplies. All I need is an isolated and vast space.”
“That’s great!” Oakley immediately led favonovel.com deeper into the base.
Soon enough, they came across a secluded and spacious area.
Oakley asked, “What do you think of this place, My Lord?”
After surveying the area, Jared nodded and said, “It’ll work!”
Then, Jared produced the Pentacarna Tower from Storage Ring.
He threw the Pentacarna Tower into the air, and the structure enlarged instantly, landing on the ground as a tall building.
The Villainous Four stared at the tower, utterly dumbstruck.
Jared explained, “This is Pentacarna Tower. It is brimming with spiritual energy, which is why I don’t need other resources for my cultivation. I will, however, need you to send someone to Medicine God Sect. Have the men in Medicine God Sect send supplies and resources to the Village of Villains on a regular basis!”
“Medicine God Sect?” Shocked, Oakley asked, “The pills from Medicine God Sect are exorbitant. The Village of Villains can scarcely afford…”
“Don’t worry about it, they won’t charge you a dime for them. I’m the current Lord of Medicine God Sect,” Jared cut in with a smile.
The revelation stunned The Villainous Four to their cores, and they shot Jared looks of disbelief.
Noticing their expressions, Jared explained, “I need to focus on my cultivation now. If there’s nothing urgent, please refrain from disturbing me. On that note, do not allow anyone to come to this place. I will set up an arcane array around this space.”
Jared planned to set up Death Trap Formation around the space throughout the duration of his cultivation.
If any unsuspecting resident in the Village of Villains accidentally breached the arcane array, they could easily lose their lives.
Oakley hurriedly promised, “Don’t worry, My Lord. Without our express orders, no one will dare to set foot in this place.”
Reassured, Jared entered Pentacarna Tower, and the doors to the tower slowly shut behind him.
The Villainous Four left afterward.
Along the way, they began discussing Jared’s revelations. “Oakley, did you notice that our overlord’s aura is incredibly similar to that of the person who saved the Village of Villains years ago?”
“Yes, I felt that too. But our overlord doesn’t look a day over thirty. He couldn’t possibly have saved us as a baby, right?”
“Perhaps our overlord is the son of our savior…”
Oakley addressed the others, “All right, that’s enough gossip. We need to strengthen the Village of Villains’ defenses. I believe enemies will come knocking on our doors soon.”
***
The next morning, The Villainous Four focused on strengthening the village’s defenses.
They also dispatched someone to Medicine God Sect.
Over the years, the residents of the Village of Villains had struggled to progress in their cultivation because of the depleting resources.
Though the outside world continued to believe that the Village of Villains was powerful, the residents themselves knew they would eventually lose to their enemies.
Suddenly, a guard ran into their room and addressed Oakley, “There’s a man here to see you, Mr. Oakley. He claims to hail from the Rowling family in Marsingfill.”
“The Rowling family of Marsingfill?” Oakley frowned slightly.
Travis piped up, “Oakley, I don’t believe we know anyone from that family.”
“Perhaps he’s here to look for Mr. Chance?” Brody mused out loud.
“Well, if they’re truly here to make Mr. Chance’s life difficult, we won’t let them out of the Village of Villains alive!” vowed Quad with clenched fists.
Oakley yelled, “Calm down, everyone. Let’s just see what it’s about. There shouldn’t be any bad blood between Mr. Chance and the Rowling family of Marsingfill.”
After all, Marsingfill was quite far from Jadeborough. Oakley found a connection between Jared and a family in Marsingfill rather unlikely.
“Show favonovel.com in!” With that in mind, Oakley fired off his orders to the guard.
A short while later, Gonzo Rowling and his men were shown into the hall.
