The Man’s Decree

Hosen laughed boisterously. “You're a wise one. Since you've chosen to side with me, I'll reward you handsomely once they've been dealt with.”

Seeing how happy Hosen was, Ebenez smiled as well, only his smile looked a little sinister.

After leaving Hosen's place, Ebenez went to the warehouse again. He activated the arcane array in the corner and came to a dark space.

There, Faiyar was resting. A few days ago, he had brought his people to kill Jared, and yet, not only did he not succeed, but he had even lost a few of his subordinates. It made Faiyar depressed.

Even when he saw Ebenez, Faiyar merely opened his eyes for a second before closing them again.

“Our chance has come,” Ebenez said to Faiyar, his voice laced with excitement.

“Are you planning to take over Emerald Cauldron Sect?” Faiyar asked.

“Indeed. This is a rare opportunity for us,” Ebenez replied with an affirming nod.

“I've just lost a few of my elites. How sure are you that we'll succeed in taking over Emerald Cauldron Sect? Also, I'm afraid Jared is the most important variable in Emerald Cauldron Sect. He's a big thorn in the side,” Faiyar said. The very thought of Jared made his head ache.

“Hahaha! Don't worry. Jared won't show up again. He's been trapped in the medicinal pool. He might even be dead! All you need to do is contact everyone you know. Contact them all. Tell them that as long as I take over Emerald Cauldron Sect, they won't need to stay in the shadows anymore. They'll get to live openly in Emerald Cauldron Sect. Did Hosen really think that he could maintain his position as the lord just because he was working with the beast race? He's too naive!” Ebenez said gleefully.

Faiyar nodded. “All right, I'll gather the people and await your good news.”

When Ebenez left the warehouse, his delight was written all over his face, for his dream was about to come true.

At the bottom of the medicinal pool, Jared finally finished studying the entire arcane array.

If he wanted to deactivate the arcane array, he would have to find the core first. It would be impossible for him to deactivate it forcibly unless he was much more powerful than the arcane array, and with the power he currently possessed, it was clearly impossible for him to deactivate it.

This is such a strange arcane array. Where in the world is its core?

Jared was baffled. He had been searching for hours, but he had yet to see a trace of where its core lay.
