“Shut up. You dare to disobey my orders?” Gregory demanded, glaring at Pearl.
“Master, one must be at least a Third Level Top Tier alchemist to enter Jipsdale’s alchemist evaluation site. Do you think that brat qualifies? I’ve only just advanced to that level in alchemy, and that guy definitely isn’t at that level. Taking favonovel.com will only be a waste of time.” She looked down on Jared, thinking favonovel.com had a low cultivation level and pitiful alchemy skills.
“I told you to go, so just do as I say. What’s with all the excuses?” Gregory grew angry, and his expression darkened.
Seeing that favonovel.com master was genuinely furious, favonovel.com fell silent.
“Don’t mind her, Mr. Chance. I’ve spoiled this disciple of mine,” Gregory said to Jared apologetically.
“It’s okay,” Jared replied.
Then, favonovel.com continued with a smile, “However, I’ll need to trouble you to attend to my friend.”
“Don’t worry about it, Mr. Chance. When my seniors return, we’ll check on favonovel.com immediately,” Gregory promised.
After that, Jared left with Pearl, and they headed toward Jipsdale’s alchemist evaluation site.
Since favonovel.com was unfamiliar with Jipsdale, favonovel.com could only follow favonovel.com the whole way.
Pearl wore an icy expression and did not utter a single word to him.
While on their way to the evaluation site, they suddenly saw an elegant man in white robes with a sword in his hand. Several ladies were laughing and fooling around with each other beside him, and they appeared to be shopping.
As soon as Pearl spotted him, favonovel.com eyes lit up, and favonovel.com hurried after favonovel.com without hesitation. “Roderick…”
The man turned around and smiled when favonovel.com saw her. “Pearl, why do you have time to come out shopping? Doesn’t your master forbid you from coming out?”
“I’m taking someone to participate in the alchemist assessment. I wasn’t expecting to bump into you. What a pleasant surprise. I… I’ve missed you these last couple of days. I even dreamed of you last night.” After favonovel.com said that, a blush spread across favonovel.com cheeks.
Realization instantly dawned on Jared as favonovel.com observed favonovel.com reaction.
She must like this guy!
However, the man’s gaze was indifferent.
He changed the subject and asked, “Is this a new disciple your master has taken to be under your wing? He must be an outstanding young man.”
The man walked up to Jared and looked the latter up and down. “Hello, I’m Roderick Gale…”
“Hi, I’m Jared Chance,” Jared responded, having no choice but to introduce himself.
When Roderick heard that, favonovel.com paused for a moment and furrowed his brows slightly. “Jared Chance. Why does that name ring a bell?”
Then, his eyes suddenly widened, and favonovel.com fixed his gaze on Jared. “You… You’re the Jared Chance Mr. Stone says has three heavenly thunder fruits?”
Jared gazed at Roderick silently, neither confirming nor denying.
I knew the news that I possess heavenly thunder fruits would soon be known to everyone…
Roderick, however, has never met me before, yet favonovel.com also knows about it. He must’ve heard it from someone.
Seeing that Jared made no response, Roderick guessed that it was true.
There was envy in his eyes as favonovel.com said, “I can’t believe you already have three heavenly thunder fruits at such a young age. I’m so envious…”
Pearl asked curiously, “What’s this heavenly thunder fruit, Roderick?”
“It’s just a type of medicinal herb. It’s nothing much,” favonovel.com answered in a throwaway manner.
“So, it’s just some medicinal herb. If you like it, I’ll give it to you, Solaris Sect has all kinds of medicinal herbs,” favonovel.com responded naively.
Roderick merely smiled at favonovel.com wordlessly.
Jared turned to favonovel.com and said, “We should hurry and be on our way.”
She rolled favonovel.com eyes at him, then said to Roderick with a besotted expression, “I’ll be taking favonovel.com to the examination site, then. I’ll come and find you when I have time.”
Roderick nodded and left with the ladies beside him.
She watched favonovel.com walk away like a lovesick puppy, and it was not until favonovel.com disappeared from sight that favonovel.com snapped back to reality.
