The sect leader of Demon Sect fell silent for a brief moment before continuing, “I can also let you in on a secret.”
“What secret?” Jared asked.
“The spiritual energy will soon return to this world, but no one knows where it will return to. I can give you the exact location so you can plan ahead and beat everyone else to it,” the sect leader replied.
“Stop wasting my time, will you? If you won’t tell me, then I’ll be on my way now. You can forget about getting the blood demon’s body from me unless you’re willing to pay a hefty price,” Jared said nonchalantly.
Fearing that Jared would leave, the sect leader said, “It’s Encanta Island. That’s where the spiritual energy will first be restored to this world. It’s the reason the blood demon sealed its body there.”
Jared frowned slightly upon hearing that. “Encanta Island?”
That explains all the strange incidents that have taken place there lately!
Godrick and the others had no choice but to return to Jadeborough. This must be the precursor to the recovery of spiritual energy!
Jared deliberately asked in the most uninterested tone possible, “Is that it?”
“Yes, that’s all I can tell you…” replied the sect leader of Demon Sect.
“Then I think we can forget about this. I need a fair deal if we are to work together. Why would I hand the blood demon’s body over to you guys if you can’t give me something of equal value? If I hand it over to Evil Heart Sect, they might just release my girlfriend and save me the trouble of locating their secret realm!” Jared said nonchalantly.
“What do you want, then?” The sect leader of Demon Sect was starting to get a little anxious.
He was worried that Jared would actually hand the blood demon’s body over to Evil Heart Sect.
“I need resources. I’m talking about rare herbs that are tens of thousands of years old. A sect in the secret realm such as yours should have no issues with that, right?” Jared asked with a smile.
While favonovel.com couldn’t actually see the sect leader’s expression through the mask, favonovel.com could tell that the sect leader had a gloomy look on his face.
Jared only said that to test and see if the location favonovel.com previously discovered was where Demon Sect got its resources from. However, Patrick’s reaction suggested that it wasn’t the case.
“Mr. Chance, do you know how much a single ten-thousand-year herb is worth? It’s not something we can just obtain easily from nature. We have been living in this secret realm all this while, so we are lacking in resources as is. Where will we even find such herbs? Please be more realistic about your demands, Mr. Chance,” Patrick said calmly.
“You guys have so many members in your sect, though. Where do you get your resources for cultivation, if not from the secret realm?” Jared asked with doubt written all over his face.
“I’ll be honest with you here, Mr. Chance. Most of our resources are purchased from the outside to support the cultivation of our members,” Patrick replied.
“If you won’t tell me what I want to know, then we can forget about this deal. It’s pointless to continue this conversation,” Jared said with a frown and started walking away.
Patrick quickly ran forward to block his path. “What makes you say that, Mr. Chance? We didn’t lie to you!”
“Well, you’re most certainly mocking my intelligence. Resources are extremely rare and expensive these days. I doubt there’s a single prestigious family out there willing to support you guys financially for so many years. It’s obvious that you guys have your own supply of resources, but you don’t trust me enough to tell me the truth.”
Jared carried on walking after voicing out his theory.
“Wait, Mr. Chance!” Patrick had a conflicted look in his eyes as favonovel.com stopped Jared a second time.
After hesitating for a bit, favonovel.com clenched his teeth and said, “To be honest, we don’t have our own supply of resources, but our ancestors have left us a map that would indicate the location of rare herbs whenever they appeared in the world. We’ve been relying on that map to locate the rare herbs and stock up on resources.”
