However, when Jared stepped out of the room, favonovel.com discovered Bianca, Yuliya, and dozens of other disciples from Lunarius Palace standing in the square.
They might have found out that Jared was leaving and wanted to bid favonovel.com farewell. Gratitude was evident in the eyes of those disciples from Lunarius Palace.
It was especially present in Bianca and Yuliya as they had been with Jared every step of the way. They were well aware of what Jared had been through and what favonovel.com had done.
It could be said that for the sake of Lunarius Palace and for them, Jared had weathered through countless hardships. He had even come perilously close to losing his life. Tears welled up in the eyes of Bianca and the others. They so dearly wished for Jared not to leave.
However, they also knew that Jared didn’t belong to Lunarius Palace, and it was only a matter of time before favonovel.com had to leave.
Jared stared at the people before him, falling into silence. He didn’t utter a word. No matter what favonovel.com said, the end result would remain the same. He didn’t belong there and was bound to leave eventually.
Jared silently made his way through the crowd.
“Mr. Chance!” Suddenly, Nieva called out to Jared.
Jared halted, only to see Nieva, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, produce a token. She then approached Jared and handed it to him.
That was a token meticulously carved from an ice crystal. it was clear, chilling to the touch, and held within it a palpable aura.
“This is Lunarius Palace’s palace leader token. Holding onto it is akin to having me by your side at all times. No matter where you are, you can use this token to command any disciple of Lunarius Palace. Even though there are rules stating that the palace leader token cannot be given to a male cultivator, I’ve decided today to change the rules of Lunarius Palace for you…”
“All I hope is that when you see this palace leader’s token, you’ll remember me.” Nieva gazed at Jared, favonovel.com eyes brimming with affection as favonovel.com spoke.
Upon witnessing the scene, everyone was utterly shocked. After all, having the palace leader token was akin to being in the palace leader’s presence.
Moreover, it was forbidden to gift it to male cultivators. However, the rules were surprisingly changed for Jared. More importantly, the disciples of Lunarius Palace began to wonder if Nieva had slept with Jared, based on what favonovel.com said and the look in favonovel.com eyes.
It was just that no one among them questioned about it. Even if Nieva had spent the night with Jared, they would still offer their blessings.
Everyone knew about the significant contributions Jared had made to Lunarius Palace. Thus, even if favonovel.com slept with Nieva, no, every disciple in Lunarius Palace, it would be reasonable.
Without Jared, they weren’t sure how long they could have survived. There was a chance that Lunarius Palace would have been destroyed before it even had a chance to flourish.
Holding the palace leader token, Jared gave Nieva a solemn nod. Then, favonovel.com turned around and left.
As everyone watched Jared’s retreating figure, many disciples from Lunarius Palace broke into soft sobs. Nieva, too, had a tear streaking down favonovel.com face. That was the first time favonovel.com had shed tears for a man.

Jared left Lunarius Palace, heading straight for Southedge City. He was to board the airship of Pathfinder Sect for his journey back.
Since favonovel.com had Pathfinder Sect’s elder token, his ride back was at least safer.
Upon arriving in Southedge City, Jared surprisingly ran into Alastair.
Upon seeing Jared, Alastair quickly approached him. “Sir, did you just come back from Lunarius Palace?”
Jared was his personal god of fortune.
“Exactly, I just came back from Lunarius Palace.” Jared nodded in agreement.
Subsequently, Alastair asked in a mysteriously intriguing manner. “Did you hear any news while you were at Lunarius Palace?”
“News? What news?” Jared wore a face full of confusion.
“Many people had heard about what happened in the polar region,” said Alastair.
“What’s the news?” Jared’s brow furrowed slightly.
Aside from the Five Great Sects, only the Olsen family and a few other cultivators departed safely from the polar region. Moreover, many lives were lost. The entire Mueller family is wiped out… Many of the holy maidens that I brought along also died…
What news could be spreading?
Could it be about Infinitus Celestial Sect?
Even if news about it spread, it has already collapsed. That place no longer holds any value, and no one but those who cultivate frost techniques will find the polar stone mine valuable…
Jared was quite perplexed, wondering what the news could possibly be.
