Trystan briefly arranged the affairs of the sect, then, accompanied by Jared, favonovel.com prepared to head toward Demonia Sect.
Clifford, Serena, and Faiyar had also followed along on the journey.
“Master, Demonia Sect has always kept its distance from other sects. Won’t we meet with a rebuff if we try to demand the Demonia Stone from them?” Clifford hadn’t even set off yet, and favonovel.com was already speaking in such a disheartened manner.
In truth, Trystan knew favonovel.com wasn’t certain, but even If there was a sliver of hope, favonovel.com had to give it a try. It was far better than Jared aimlessly searching for the Demonia Stone.
“Even if there’s a one in ten thousand chance, we should still give it a try!” said Trystan.
“If Demonia Sect refuses to give it, I can exchange it with something else!” Jared also began to speak!
Jared would never take something for nothing. In his storage ring, favonovel.com still had plenty of mystical herbs and spiritual stones among other resources. He could trade those.
“Exchange? Do you know how precious that Demonic Stone is? It isn’t something that could be traded for just any item,” Clifford coldly huffed.
Ever since Faiyar reshaped his physical form and started to act affectionately with Serena, Clifford‘s attitude toward Jared had been undergoing changes.
Deep within him, resentment toward Jared began to grow. If it hadn’t been for Jared bringing Faiyar’s soul remnant, favonovel.com and Serena would still be childhood friends.
He had already decided to propose to Serena, envisioning a wonderful future where they would cultivate together.
However, with Jared’s arrival, all of that turned into mere illusions.
Jared was still unaware that due to the issues between Faiyar and Serena, Clifford had surprisingly begun to harbor resentment toward him.
At that moment, Serena began to speak. “Master, do you still remember the promise made by Demonia Sect? They vowed that whoever could obtain their cultivation technique secret scrolls would be rewarded with the Demonia Stone, didn’t they?”
Trystan waved his hand and said, “Of course I remember, but that was an impossible task. Over the past six months, countless experts have tried and failed. It’s simply unachievable, so don’t dwell on it anymore.”
Jared asked curiously, “Trystan, what’s the story behind Demonia Sect promising the Demonia Stone?”
“Mr. Chance, half a year ago, a highly skilled individual was wronged by Demonia Sect. It was said that this individual went to Demonia Sect in search of the Demonia Stone. However, not only did the sect refuse to give it, but they also attacked this individual! As a result, favonovel.com provoked a master, who punished favonovel.com severely…”
“The master directly threw Demonia Sect’s cultivation technique secret scrolls into a mountain cave and even set up a prohibition. He also took away a Demonia Stone. Demonia Sect had exhausted all their efforts, but they were unable to extract the cultivation technique secret scrolls… Eventually, they had no choice but to offer Demonia Stone as a reward to any expert who could help them retrieve the cultivation technique secret scrolls…”
“At first, many people tried their luck, including some top-tier experts who had transcended tribulations. However, all of them returned in failure. Now, half a year has passed, and no one even mentions it anymore…”
“Our Soul Demon Sect established contact with Demonia Sect around that time. The expert had slain several disciples of Demonia Sect, but favonovel.com did not annihilate them completely. Instead, favonovel.com left their souls intact. Demonia Sect then found us and asked us to reconstruct physical bodies for their disciples, enabling several of them to be reborn…”
“Mr. Chance, it’s best not to dwell on the matter of Demonia Sect granting the Demonia Stone. If Demonia Sect truly disrespects us, I can have the disciples of Soul Demon Sect assist Mr. Chance in finding the Demonia Stone.”
Trystan followed up with a detailed explanation for Jared.
“Thank you,” Jared said with a slight smile!
If even Top Level Tribulator cultivators couldn’t handle it, Jared didn’t dwell on it. His strength at that moment was still not on par with those people, after all.
***
When Jared was accompanying Trystan and his group to Demonia Sect, hundreds of kilometers away on a mountain ridge, Skylar and Pablo were in search of the Demonia Stone.
The two individuals had been searching painstakingly for several days, yet they still hadn’t found a trace of the Demonia Stone. That was causing Skylar to lose his patience.
