Not long after Jared and his group left, Wrey and his followers arrived at the scene. Accompanying Wrey was a disciple from Divination Sect.
The disciple, who had once been a loyal follower of Great Diviner, was the one who revealed the whereabouts of Great Diviner to Wrey and his group. Upon learning that their master had chosen to align with Jared, the disciple and a few others decided to betray Great Diviner and side with Wrey.
“There's no one in the cave anymore, Mr. Lindt,” reported a disciple from Flying Star Sect after taking a look inside.
“D*mn it! Did they find out we were coming?” Wrey entered the cave to investigate and discovered that Jared and his group had just left.
“They must have left not long ago. Chase after them! How f*cking dare he betray us?” Wrey waved his hand, and his followers set off in pursuit of Jared and his companions.
Jared and his group still had no idea their whereabouts had been exposed. They continued to move swiftly, following the locations marked on the treasure map.
“Where are we going, Mr. Chance?” Skyler asked curiously.
Jared remained silent about their destination and the tasks ahead, as he was focused on leading them on the journey.
“Skyler, let's not inquire too much. We must simply obey whatever Mr. Chance says,” Matthew reprimanded her.
Skyler lowered her head and stuck her tongue out.
Jared smiled and said, “It's all right. I made a promise to someone to take them to a specific location, so that's where we're going.”
Jared did not mention anything about the treasure map, and the others did not press for details either. The group had unwavering trust in Jared as they followed his lead wholeheartedly.
After a full day of traveling, as the sky darkened, Jared led the group to find a place to rest.
Just as they settled down for a moment of respite, a disciple from Divination Sect hurriedly approached Great Diviner and said, “Master, Chandler is missing.”
