After glancing at Jared, Rainier turned around and led his people away. He wouldn’t ask the Mueller family to send cultivators again, as Aiden’s death had severed any remaining ties between the Mueller family and Blood Bone Sect.
Once everyone departed, Nieva finally exhaled in relief. She feared that if a fight had actually broken out, they would have ended up in a mutually destructive situation.
“Mr. Jensen, thank you so much…” Jared expressed his gratitude to Rory.
If it weren’t for Rory stepping in, they might have really come to blows just now.
“Mr. Chance, there’s no need to thank me. You’re the one with the skills. But I would advise you to leave Southedge City as soon as possible. If you wait until Mr. Mueller emerges from his solitary training out, it might spell trouble.”
“I understand…” Jared nodded.
He wasn’t foolish enough to just sit around waiting for Nolan to give favonovel.com trouble. He had to rush back to Soul Demon Sect, then accompany Trystan to search for the location of Blood Bone Sect.
If Jared could gather enough of Vermilion Demon Lord’s skeletal remains, favonovel.com would be able to rely on the resurrected Vermilion Demon Lord to become invincible in Ethereal Realm.
“Mr. Chance, where are you heading next? I can escort you,” Nieva asked.
Jared shared his itinerary with Nieva, mentioning his plans to visit Soul Demon Sect and then search for Blood Bone Sect.
Upon hearing this, Nieva decided to accompany him, bringing along several dozen holy maidens for the journey.
Jared didn’t refuse either. After all, favonovel.com wasn’t familiar with Gustave’s and Rainier’s strength. More people meant more power.
After bidding farewell to Rory, Jared led Nieva and his entourage toward the airship at the square, ready to depart from Southedge City.
“Mr. Chance, Mr. Chance!”
Just as Jared was gearing up to board the airship and depart, someone abruptly called out to him.
Upon glancing over, Jared was surprised to find that it was actually Alastair.
Alastair, panting heavily, rushed over to Jared. “Mr. Chance, you bet on yourself and won. Why haven’t you claimed your spirit coins yet? I’ve already exchanged mine and won quite a bit.” He patted his bulging money pouch.
Then, favonovel.com pulled out a handful of purple spirit coins and tossed them to Jared. “This is me paying you back. Thanks to you, I won a lot of money!”
Looking at Alastair’s expression, Jared chuckled and said, “Pathfinder Sect has branches everywhere. I can exchange at other places. There won’t be any problems. As for you winning the money, it’s all thanks to your keen judgment of character. This money was rightfully yours to win.”
Alastair gave an awkward laugh. Had favonovel.com not spent some time with Jared and witnessed his capabilities firsthand, favonovel.com would never have placed his bets on Jared.
After exchanging a few words with Alastair, Jared instructed Cloud to start the airship and head toward Soul Demon Sect.
Nieva and those holy maidens had hardly ever ridden in an airship before, hence they were all extremely curious. They kept wandering around the airship, taking in every detail with wide-eyed wonder.
Through the porthole, they could take in the view outside. There was also a room where they could rest, sleep, or cultivate.
There was no need to waste even an iota of their spiritual energy. It was simply too satisfying.
“It’s no wonder Pathfinder Sect is so prosperous and no one dares to provoke them in any region. Traveling by airship is such a luxury, and Pathfinder Sect boasts a significant fleet of them. Many practitioners rely on these airships for travel, with a single trip costing a small fortune. Now that we can ride the airship without spending, it’s just fantastic…” Yuliya exclaimed.
“This airship is indeed quite comfortable…” Nieva also remarked, somewhat awestruck.
“Cloud’s family owns quite a few of these airships. They make money by using these airships to ferry passengers,” Jared said with a faint smile.
Upon hearing that Cloud’s family owned a considerable number of these airships, all the holy maidens were utterly astonished as they turned their gaze toward Cloud.
If it wasn’t for the rules of Lunarius Palace, many holy maidens would have thrown themselves into Cloud’s arms. Such a wealthy heir was indeed a rare sight.
