Walter was intrigued when he heard the tempting offer. “Jared, why don't we just let him off the hook? Mr. Wood has already pleaded for forgiveness anyway. What do you think?”
Little did Walter know, he had been on the hit list as well. It was just that the assassins had not gone to his room first.
“All right. Since that's what you say, I'll just go easy on him this time.”
Jared did as Walter told not only because it was Walter who had asked but also because he wanted to keep Freddy alive so he could get some useful information from that man in the future.
Given how Freddy would always shore up sunken ships for their treasure, Jared speculated that he might come across some magical items during his quests. This could be helpful to Jared.
“Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Chance!”
Freddy kept bowing to express his heartfelt gratitude. After that, he asked his men to escort Jared and the others off the ship.
After they landed, Jared brought Lizbeth with him to the Medicine God Sect. He had Freddy get them a car to send them over.
As for Walter, William, Tommy, and Phoenix, Freddy knew he was no match for them either. Besides, Freddy could not afford to offend Walter anymore.
When Jared and Lizbeth reached the Medicine God Sect, five days had already elapsed. Jared only had two days until his fight with Edgar.
“What's wrong with Lizbeth?”
Rayleigh, who had been living a quiet life in the Medicine God Sect, was concerned when he saw Jared carrying Lizbeth in his arms.
“She was poisoned, Mr. Deragon. I don't know what poison they used on her, so I'm here to ask Mr. Knox for help.”
Lyanna and Melanie rushed over upon knowing Jared's arrival. When the two ladies saw the unconscious Lizbeth, they were worried sick.
“My Lord...”
