Chapter 890Chapter 890 Connections
Jared spent an entire night writing out a manual for learning techniques and handed them to Shane the
next day, urging him to lead the other members in mastering the tips and lessons. With that done,
Jared shared his plan of making a trip to Medicine God Sect. Not only could he use the chance to get
Axton to cultivate pills for the Department of Justice, but he could also finish formulating the jet melding
cream to relieve Tommy and Phoenix’s pain.
After hearing Jared’s plans, Theodore couldn’t help but feel a nagging sense of unease. “Mr. Chance,
why don’t I make this trip with you? As you know, many people in Jadeborough have their eyes on you.
I may not be as powerful as you, but I still have my status and reputation. No one will dare lay a hand
on me.”
Jared smiled in return. “General Jackson, with the international competition approaching, I think you
should stay and watch over the Department of Justice. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine on my own.”
“Very well then. But if there’s any trouble, please call me immediately, Mr. Chance. After all, I do still
have some connections in Jadeborough.”
Indeed, if it hadn’t been for Theodore’s connections and ingenious means, he wouldn’t have
successfully become the general of the Department of Justice in Jadeborough.
“Sure!” Jared replied with a firm nod.
However, just as he was about to leave the Department of Justice, Jared suddenly stopped and turned
toward Theodore. “General Jackson, do you know where Shadow Estate is?”
“Are you thinking of going there, Mr. Chance?”
“I’m acquainted with their patriarch, Leviathan Zare, so I thought of dropping by.”As it turned out, Jared had been away from Leviathan for more than a month. But now that he knew
Shadow Estate was one of the regiments in Dragon Sect and under his wing, Jared was even more
eager to visit and get pills formulated for them too.
Theodore quickly pointed out Shadow Estate’s location, which was smack in the middle of a forest on
the outskirts of Jadeborough.
Not long after, Jared followed Theodore’s directions and arrived at Shadow Estate. The sprawling
estate and majestic buildings that greeted him left him in awe. Jared had never thought that Shadow
Estate would be so luxurious, and its magnificence only proved that they were no ordinary folks. Ah, no
wonder no one dares to offend Colin. He isn’t all that powerful, yet people fear him because of Shadow
Estate.
Jared walked up to the main door, only to see two Shadow Estate members standing guard outside.
They looked stricken with grief, and it didn’t long before Jared noticed the black mourning wreath hung
on the door.
“What happened here?” he asked, feeling his heart skip a beat.
Da*n it. Something must have happened and resulted in a death. Otherwise, why would there be a
mourning wreath, and why would the guards look so crestfallen?
The guards glanced at Jared and suddenly tensed up, drawing their weapons on him. “Who are you?
What are you doing here?”
“I’m friends with Mr. Zare. What happened in Shadow Estate?” Jared once again asked worriedly.“Mr. Zare’s friend?” the guard asked dubiously. “If that’s the truth, then you would’ve known about what
happened here. Fess up! Are you a spy from the Shalvis family or Thunderstorm Sect?”
Both guards unsheathed their swords immediately after, ready to attack.
“I’ve already told you that I’m Mr. Zare’s friend. If you don’t believe it, go ahead and let him know that
Jared Chance is here. You can report it to Colin too if you like,” Jared hastily explained.
One of the guards gaped at him. “Jared Chance? Y-You’re Jared Chance?”
“Yes! I’m Jared Chance!”
“H-Hold on a minute. I’ll report this right away…” the guard replied before dashing into the estate.
The guard came back within minutes, except this time, Colin followed behind.novelbin
