He gave Kayson a slap before the latter could even react, sending favonovel.com flying backward. An excruciating pain heralded a huge swelling on his cheeks.
The scene stunned all of Kayson’s men, leading them to exchange shocked glances with each other.
The eldest son of the Zagorski family had been sent flying with a single slap and didn’t even get the opportunity to defend himself. All of them couldn’t believe their eyes.
Overwhelmed by anger, Kayson glowered at Jared. “You b*stard! My father will not forgive you for slapping me.”
Jared shot back with an icy expression. “Get out of my sight if you still value your life. I never wanted to make an enemy out of you, but you refused to leave us alone. If you spew another word of nonsense, I’m going to end your life. Do you hear me?”
Sensing Jared’s murderous intent, Kayson felt his eyelids twitch.
“Fine. Just you wait. This isn’t Jadeborough…”
With that, Kayson left with his men.
After favonovel.com was gone, Jared said to Jessica, “Let’s get going…”
“Mr. Chance, as I’ve said before, Mr. Zagorski is someone petty. He’ll definitely come back for revenge now that you’ve struck him,” Jessica reminded.
“Let favonovel.com try. I don’t mind becoming the mayor of the city. It would be a good opportunity to use the cultivation resources available here.” Jared broke into a nonchalant smile.
“Mr. Chance, you’re underestimating the Zagorski family,” Jessica highlighted again.
“What’s there to fear? Doesn’t Demon Sect have my back? Don’t tell me that they’re afraid of the Zagorski family?” Jared asked cheekily as favonovel.com stared at Jessica.
“No way! There’s no way Demon Sect is scared of that lowly family,” Jessica said proudly.
“So, what’s the problem? Now that we’re working together, it goes without saying that we’re partners. I don’t think Demon Sect will stand idly by in a conflict between me and them, right?” Jared asked with a smile.
Jessica didn’t know how to respond. After all, favonovel.com was just one of the Demon Sect ambassadors and was in no position to decide.
Faced with Jessica’s silence, Jared suggested with a grin, “Let’s go before Mr. Zagorski comes back with more men.”
Upon nodding in acknowledgment, Jessica and favonovel.com companions drove out of Norham and soon arrived in a clearing in the forest.
“Is this the entrance to the Demon Sect’s secret realm?” Jared asked.
Jessica nodded. “Yes.”
“Hurry up and open it. I’ve never seen a secret realm before.” Flaxseed was visibly excited, for this was his first time entering a secret realm.
Jessica replied awkwardly, “The opening of the secret realm is a secret, so…”
Jessica stopped mid-sentence, but Jared immediately understood what favonovel.com wanted to convey, so favonovel.com ordered Flaxseed to step away together with him.
“Jeez, why so secretive…” Despite feeling upset, Flaxseed complied with Jared’s instructions.
All they saw was Jessica taking out a special-looking stone as favonovel.com began mumbling under favonovel.com breath.
Thereafter, a ripple-like portal began to glow in mid-air.
“All right, let’s go,” Jessica said to Jared and Flaxseed.
The three of them stepped through the portal with Jessica in the lead.
Once all of them were in, the blistering light faded away and the portal closed.
Inside the secret realm, Jared was greeted by the sight of a huge palace. Beyond the building was nothing but a haze of gray. Other than the palace stretching for hundreds of meters in every direction, everywhere else favonovel.com laid his eyes on was the same blurry gray.
Jared assumed that Demon Sect had deliberately clouded everything in order to protect a secret.
