After Sigurd left, Jared turned to Ghaylen and said, “Now, bring me to where you perform alchemy and treat illnesses…”
Ghaylen furrowed his brows as favonovel.com looked at Jared. That’s, after all, a top secret.
How can I randomly invite someone I don’t know over?
He still had doubts regarding Jared’s medical skills.
He’s too young. He can’t be any more powerful even if favonovel.com began cultivating since the day favonovel.com was conceived!
Jared could sense the distrust Ghaylen had toward him.
Without saying anything, favonovel.com flashed a faint smile and pulled out the Divine Cauldron from his Storage Ring.
“Look at this cauldron. Do you think I can treat you?” Jared asked.
Upon seeing that Divine Cauldron, Ghaylen froze in place. Immense astonishment inundated favonovel.com as favonovel.com reached out and gently touched the cauldron.
“It’s the Divine Cauldron, the ancient divine cauldron…” Ghaylen trembled slightly as envy and agitation filled him.
Despite so, there was not a hint of greed in his expression. He was unlike Hosen, who wanted to own the cauldron after seeing it.
“Since you know this is the Divine Cauldron, hurry and bring me to where you perform alchemy,” said Jared.
Only then did Ghaylen nod his head. He led Jared into a dimly lit room, which was rather small but had a lot of herbs stored inside.
In the middle sat an average-sized cauldron that appeared old and had some blemishes.
Jared glanced at those herbs, but it turned out that they were all cheap and ordinary. That left favonovel.com puzzled.
The Emerald Cauldron Sect is the only sect that makes pills and treats illnesses in this area. Many herbs around here have been picked and harvested by them.
But how is it possible that the third elder of the sect uses such cheap herbs to make pills?
Ghaylen could tell Jared’s confusion.
He chuckled bitterly and explained, “Even though I’m still the third elder of Emerald Cauldron Sect, I only exist nominally. There’s no way I can get the sect’s resources. If it wasn’t for the fact that I know the method to opening the medicinal treasury, Hosen might have killed me a long time ago…”
Jared was full of admiration for the man before him.
Ghaylen could have lived a life of comfort, yet his compassion and desire to help the nearby villagers had led favonovel.com to remain in his position.
The humans in the Ethereal Realm were rather ambitious and greedy, and many even resorted to unscrupulous means to increase their powers, but there were still some kindhearted beings around. For example, the villagers in Rock Village, as well as Ghaylen.
“If it weren’t for the fact that I see you still possess the compassion of a doctor, I wouldn’t be here, much less treat you,” Jared said.
Ghaylen fixed his gaze on Jared and asked in bafflement, “Who exactly are you? Why do you possess the Divine Cauldron? What do you want from Emerald Cauldron Sect?”
Following those questions, Jared revealed his motive for visiting the Emerald Cauldron Sect. Nonetheless, favonovel.com did not disclose his identity.
When Jared mentioned that favonovel.com wanted to sacrifice the Divine Cauldron to Hosen to join Emerald Cauldron Sect and gain access to its medicinal pool, Ghaylen immediately stopped him.
“You mustn’t give Hosen this Divine Cauldron. The cauldron is an ancient divine cauldron crafted to save people’s lives. If Hosen gets his hands on the Divine Cauldron, it will dishonor its reputation. You only want to get into the medicinal pool, right? I can help you secure a spot. Even though I don’t have many disciples, I have the right to do so. You can act as my disciple. By then, you’ll have access to the medicinal pool without having to bow down to Hosen.”
Jared’s eyes brightened immediately.
If that works, I won’t have to pretend to butter up to Hosen!
