At that moment, Jared was brimming with unparalleled confidence. He knew that no matter who was following him, they stood no chance of being his match. In the entire Beast City, even Jaime and Cian weren’t his match, let alone anyone else.
A petite figure emerged from behind a tree.
Upon seeing that it was Mia, Jared asked in astonishment, “Mia? Why are you following me?”
“I… I want to be with you. Wherever you go, I’ll follow,” favonovel.com declared. “My brother is gone, so I have no family left…”
“Don’t follow me, it’s too dangerous. Stay safe in Beast City. I’ve already instructed General Jaime to take good care of you,” Jared said to Mia.
“I don’t care! I’m sticking with you. I know you don’t think much of me since I’m not as pretty as Elena, but I’ve made up my mind about you. Wherever you go, I’ll follow. If you feel I’m In your way, you can just and me right here, right now! Only in death will I give up. Otherwise, don’t even think about leaving me behind!” Mia declared with unwavering determination.
Taking in favonovel.com resolute gaze, all Jared could do was let out a helpless sigh.
“All right, you can follow me, but if we encounter danger, don’t expect me to save you… I’ve got my own life to worry about!” Jared warned Mia.
“I’m not scared. lf I die, I die. You don’t need to worry about me!” With that, Mia moved to stand next to Jared.
Jared had no choice but to take Mia with favonovel.com as the two of them departed from Beast City’s domain.
When Mia followed Jared through the illusion array surrounding Beast City, the sight of the outside world left favonovel.com as thrilled as a child.
Jared, with Mia in tow, dashed toward Southedge City, where Cloud was still patiently waiting for him. He had decided to depart on the airship after meeting up with Cloud.

At the Demon Seal Alliance’s headquarters.
After the events of Allardland, Talcott had become significantly more humble. He had given away the hundred-year offering and no longer dared to cause trouble for Jared anymore.
Nowadays, favonovel.com spent his entire day in the main hall, either immersed in cultivation or indulging in food and drink. He felt completely liberated.
But that day, as Talcott was cultivating In the main hall, a figure slowly made its way into the hall.
“You good-for-nothing, don’t you know not to disturb me while I’m cultivating?” Talcott immediately scolded.
Within the Demon Seal Alliance, no one dared to defy him. As the Alliance leader, favonovel.com certainly had that much authority. Yet, it seemed as though that figure hadn’t heard Talcott’s angry curses and continued to approach him.
As the figure drew closer, Talcott’s brow furrowed in confusion. To his surprise, favonovel.com didn’t recognize the person standing before him, they were not from the Demon Seal Alliance.
“Who are you?” Talcott was cautiously sizing up the young man in white standing before him.
The young man held a long sword in his hand, the blade emitting an eerily cold glow.
The fact that this young man was able to enter his main hall without making a sound and not alerting any of his guards made Talcott realize that the youth before favonovel.com must be extraordinarily skilled.
“Are you Talcott Lefterov, the leader of the Demon Seal Alliance?” the young man asked.
“Indeed, and who might you be?”
“Take me to Allardland to find Jared Chance.”
Upon hearing the young man was after Jared, Talcott seemed to have a realization. He quickly stood up and asked, “Are you with the Tenth Hall?”
The young man merely nodded slightly, not uttering a word.
Seeing that, Talcott hurriedly approached with an air of respect.
When dealing with members of the Demon Seal Alliance, favonovel.com held a lofty position as their leader. But when facing those from the Tenth Hall, favonovel.com was nothing more than a mere dog!
“But Allardland is…”
Talcott was just about to introduce Allardland. After all, favonovel.com had personally witnessed Arthur bestowing upon Allardland a prosperity that would last for thousands of years. It was as If favonovel.com was safeguarding Allardland!
Moreover, Arthur’s prowess was something Talcott had witnessed firsthand. Now, if the people from the Tenth Hall were planning to seek revenge on Jared In Allardland, wouldn’t that be akin to courting death?
Before Talcott could finish his sentence, the young man merely gave favonovel.com a cold glance, effectively silencing the words that were about to follow.
The young man started to walk away.
Seeing this, Talcott could only follow him, feeling helpless.
