Chapter 2727Chapter 2727 Just A Friend
Tigerus had been locked up in the water dungeon for three days, but his freedom wasn't restricted at
all.
Tigerus had been observing. Once Xandros and his men lay in ambush near the city, he would walk out
of the water dungeon and invite Yuven and Ivasha to a meal where he would spike their food.
Meanwhile, Jared had spent three whole days cultivating. On top of trying to understand Thunder Palm,
he continued to refine the demonic fire within his body, hoping to one day amalgamate the two.
On that particular day, Jared was busy cultivating when Ivasha brought him a meal that she had
personally prepared.
Over the last few days, she had assumed responsibility for all his daily needs.
Although Jared was cognizant of her intentions and recognized the effort she had put in, he was not in
a position to promise her anything yet.
“It's time to eat,” Ivasha said.
Just as Jared slowly opened his eyes to get out of bed for his meal, a red light flashed across his waist.
Viola's anxious voice rang out.
Before he left, he had given Viola a communication device so that she could get in touch with him
during emergencies.
“Jared, where are you?”
“Ms. Warwick, I'm somewhere near the base of Emerald Cauldron Sect. What's wrong?”Jared didn't say that he was in Imperial Beast City for fear that Viola might get the wrong idea. After all,
without alchemy as a barrier, Imperial Beast City and human sects were on hostile terms with each
other.
“Thank God. You should hurry back. Hosen is on his way here with his men to attack us. I have already
ordered for the main gate to be sealed and Mountain Defense Formation to be activated. However, it
won't stop them for long. This time, Hosen has brought with him the beast cultivators from Norwal City
who are all formidable opponents!”
“Got it. I'll head back at once. Hang in there and wait for me!”
Jared ended the call and dashed right out without hesitation.
Ivasha ran after him. “Jared, what's going on? Who is that woman?”
Ivasha had begun to guess who Viola was the moment she heard her voice.
“It's just a friend. Let your father know where I have gone on my behalf. I'm going to Emerald Cauldron
Sect to deal with some matters. Get your father to keep an eye on the city,” Jared instructed Ivasha.
“Is Emerald Cauldron Sect in danger? What is your relationship with them? Do you want me to go with
you?”
Ivasha fired a barrage of questions at Jared.
Unfortunately, Jared heard none of them, for he had already disappeared from her sight.
“Hmph! He cares so much for that woman yet he ignores me...”
Ivasha pouted in dissatisfaction as she went to see her father to relay Jared's message.While Jared was on his way to Emerald Cauldron Sect, Hosen had surrounded its gates with more than
a hundred beast warriors from Norwal City.
Standing right beside Hosen was a thin old man who was mumbling something.
The old man was a general of Norwal City who had reached Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm. He was
sent by Norwal City to aid Hosen in his attempt to seize power as the lord of Emerald Cauldron Sect.
He was enough to help Hosen achieve his goal. After all, the strongest cultivator of Emerald Cauldron
Sect was Ebenez, who was only at Third Level Body Fusion Realm.
Hosen wasn't aware that Ebenez had failed to seize the position and that Viola was currently the lord of
the sect.
“General Kinsley, can you shatter this Mountain Defense Formation?” Hosen asked in a respectful
manner.
