Chapter 1724

“This stone statue doesn't look like it'll last long. There's no saying whether it'll manage to hold out until

the others break through to become Martial Arts Marquises.”

Jared rose to his feet and left the forbidden ground.

When Norm saw Jared walking out, he hurried forward respectfully and called out, “Mr. Chance.”

“How are the others getting along in their cultivation? Do dew drops still form on the statue every

night?” Jared asked Norm.

“The others are cultivating at a steady pace. As for the dew on the statue, it has significantly increased

over the past few days,” Norm replied.

Jared nodded in response. Then, he went to check on Godrick and the others. Upon observing their

cultivation progress, he felt rather pleased.

However, he was just about to walk out of the palace and take a stroll when a sense of foreboding

washed over him.

Oh shit...

Cursing silently, he turned to Norm and excused himself before rushing back to Jadeborough.

There was a connection between Evangeline and Jared. While at the Gunderson family estate, Chester

had asked Jared to plant a spiritual sense within Evangeline's body to make her follow Jared all the

time.

Although Evangeline had the holy maiden's soul inside her body and no longer needed to stay by

Jared's side, there was still a connection between the spiritual sense and him.

Now that she was imprisoned, he could sense it as soon as he walked out.

Upon his return to Jadeborough, Lizbeth and the others surrounded him immediately when they saw

him.

The gaggle of ladies started chattering away to him.

“That's enough. You don't have to say anything more. I already know about it,” he said while waving his

hand. After saying that, he left Crimson Palace and headed for the Gunderson residence.

I need to speak to Fernando and get a clear explanation of what happened. There are some things that

Lizbeth and the other ladies can't explain clearly.

Meanwhile, Fernando was on pins and needles. I'm well aware of Evangeline's identity. Should

misfortune happen to befall her, I won't be able to explain things!

As he was fretting over the matter, Astrid opened the door and said, “Dad, Jared is here.”

As soon as Fernando heard that, he dashed out the door to welcome Jared.

“Mr. Chance, you're back. Evan—”

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Jared cut him off with a wave of his hand and said, “I know.

Let's talk inside.”

Fernando nodded. Then, he said to Astrid, “Get someone to stand guard by the door. No one is allowed

to enter.”

With that, he followed Jared into the room and closed the door.

Still worried that it was unsafe, Fernando waved his hand and instantly enveloped them with

teleportation magecraft.

The reason Jared had come looking for Fernando was to discover Evangeline's whereabouts.

Even though his spiritual sense was still in Evangeline's body, he could not pinpoint her location.

“Uh... I'm not sure about that. Even if there were a way, only Great Elder would know,” Fernando

answered.

“In that case, take me to the secret realm so we can find him and ask him. There's no time to lose.”

Jared was worried Evangeline's life would be in danger the longer they delayed it.

If anything happens to Evangeline, not only will we lose her, but the holy maiden's soul in her will also

disappear.
