A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 6483

Osric seemed to see the deadlock inside him and smiled. "Sect Master of Wellspring Order, you do not need to worry too much. You will not be going alone."

"I can provide the sanctuary map and part of the intelligence. I will tell you about the wards and dangers in the sanctuary's outer reaches, and I will also send two Golden Immortal cultivators to accompany you. With the three of you working together, your strength will rise greatly. You should have a chance to come out alive, and a chance to obtain the Genesis Dew."

"Send two Golden Immortal cultivators to accompany me?" Master Wellspring's brow tightened even further.

He knew exactly what Osric's cultivators would be there for. In name, they would accompany him. In truth, they would most likely watch him, and the moment he obtained the Genesis Dew or found any other treasure within the sanctuary, those people would probably strike at once, seize the treasure, and even kill him to silence him.

He stayed silent for a long time. The two ends of the decision pulled harder and harder against each other.

He looked at the jade vial in his hand. In its smooth surface, he seemed to see the Aureate Heir's faint soul, and seemed to hear the Aureate Heir's expectation waiting there.

He remembered his oath. He remembered the hopes of all Wellspring Order. He remembered everything he had already paid.

He had no choice. Truly no choice.

The Genesis Dew had been taken by Venerable Starwick. This was his only hope now, the only hope that could let the Aureate Heir rebuild his body.

Even if a 10,000-yard abyss waited ahead, even if nine chances out of ten led to death, he still had to force his way through. He could not afford to gamble wrong, and he could not afford to lose.

Just as he remained caught between the two choices, Jared's voice slowly came from inside the jade vial, still even and unshaken. "Agree to it."

The voice was very light, yet it carried a force that allowed no doubt. In an instant, it swept through the wavering contest inside Master Wellspring and left no room for it.

Master Wellspring raised his head and looked at Osric. He drew in a deep breath, his gaze setting hard, and said each word clearly. "Fine. I agree. Where is the Primordial Sanctuary? When do we leave?"

"Once Master Wellspring agreed, Osric’s smile bloomed at once, bright enough to fill his whole face. A thin, calculating gleam passed through his eyes.

“No rush, no rush. Sect Master of Wellspring Order, you have traveled a long road, and the blows you took were not light. Body and mind both need time to recover.”"

“Stay at the Exchange tonight and get your spirit back in order. Tomorrow at first light, this old man will send someone to take you to the sanctuary entrance. I have already prepared the map and the supplies, and the two Golden Immortal cultivators will go with you as well.”

Master Wellspring gave a small nod and said nothing.

"He knew Osric would not harm him.

At least, not right now."

"Osric still needed him to enter the secret realm and bring back the spiritual water. He still needed Master Wellspring to take the risk in his place.

So before the Genesis Dew was in hand, Osric would make certain he stayed alive."

Even so, that did not settle everything. Master Wellspring’s voice dropped as he asked, “Those two Golden Immortal cultivators—who are they? What level are their cultivations? What are they good at?”

"He had to know the details about those two cultivators.

Only then could he prepare for what might come, and keep himself from being played by them when the time came."

Osric smiled faintly and spoke at an unhurried pace. “Both are guest elders of the Abyssal Exchange. Both are Golden Immortal Level One. Their strength is nothing to look down on.”

“The man specializes in concealment and assassination. He has plenty of experience, and in the northern region, he has some reputation. The woman specializes in the formation and healing. When things turn dangerous, she can help all of you and protect your safety. With them at your side, your chances of forcing your way through the secret realm will be much higher.”
