Chapter 2896Chapter 2896 Get Some Fresh Air
“No, no, no. I was just wondering if I could follow you. This place is full of dangers, and there are more
and more people coming here for the treasure. A bloody battle is sure to ensue when the treasure is
discovered, so I think it’ll be good if we become allies and become a stronger entity,” Cloud told Jared.
Cloud realized that Jared was strong, so he wanted to form an alliance with Jared. After all, power was
everything in the Ethereal Realm.
Jared glanced at Cloud, contemplating the suggestion. Knowing that Cloud would not try to pull any
tricks, he nodded and said, “All right. Come along, then.”
Cloud was clearly excited to hear Jared’s agreement. Soon, the newly formed group was back on their
journey to look for the treasure.
In Quinley’s room at the Tall residence, as Feenix and Aislin were under Quinley’s protection, they were
no longer harassed by Kaison. Both were immensely grateful to Quinley for that.
“Now that the entire far north is in chaos, you should stay here for a bit. Once things settle down, I’ll
send you both away from here,” Quinley said to them.
“Thank you so much, Ms. Tall. However, we have another friend who’s still in the cave. We’re worried
that she’d be in danger, so we have to go and look for her!”
Aislin was worried about Josephine. Even though Feenix had left a Phoenix Feather with Josephine so
the cold posed no threat to her, Aislin still could not shake off her concern.
“Tell me where the cave is; I’ll check it out for you. If you head out like this, I’m afraid my brother will
notice you and catch you again. My brother’s a massive pervert who’s always after women. If I have
the time, I’m going to get my eldest brother to teach him a good lesson so that he’ll change his ways!”At the mention of her second brother, a look of fury manifested on Quinley’s face. She was a woman,
too. If someone had forced himself onto her, she would have wanted to die as well. After all, chastity
was important to her.
Although many women in society saw little importance in their bodies and had no issues in selling their
bodies for money, they were not the majority.
It was best for women to respect themselves. After a moment of contemplation, Feenix and Aislin told
the location of the cave and Josephine’s hiding spot to Quinley.
“Okay, don’t worry. I’ll head off right. away. No matter whether or not your friend is there, I’ll tell you the
outcome. Stay in my room and don’t wander off. Someone will bring you your meals every day.”
With that, Quinley left her room. Just as she was about to depart from the Tall residence, the guard by
the exit stopped her.
“Ms. Tall, Mr. Mason has instructed us to not let you leave the Tall residence,” the guard informed her.
“Get lost! I need some fresh air.”
Quinley shoved the guard aside and started heading out again. However, the two guards blocked her
way once more. Quinley stiffened for a second before frowning. “Are you trying to court death?”
“Ms. Tall, even if you kill us, we can’t let you leave. This is an order from Mr. Mason himself,” the
guards replied. “Don’t you dare assume that I won’t kill you!”
As Quinley said that, she raised her hand, poised to strike. However, the guards remained still. Even at
the threat of death, they refused to let Quinley leave.At that, Quinley had no choice but to lower her hand. She was just trying to scare them into
submission. There was no way she would actually kill them.
After all, they were merely following orders.
