The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 6159

Jared lifted a hand and cut off Luther's excited bragging and Grace's praise.

His eyes settled on Vivian, and his voice turned more serious.

"Alright, enough of that. The Teleportation Array I told you to arrange—how is it? Is everything ready? We need to use it as soon as possible and head to the Luminous Sanctuary."

Only then did Vivian fully steady herself.'

She forced down what had been churning inside her, and her face tightened.

She bit her lip.'

A troubled look crossed her face as she said in a low voice, "I've already contacted the wardens of the Teleportation Array in Cloudhaven City, and they agreed to let us use it. But..."

She stopped there.'

Her head lowered, and the words stalled with a weight she couldn't hide.

Jared's brow drew together slightly.

"But what? Is there some problem?"

Vivian drew in a deep breath, then lifted her head and looked at Jared.'

Her voice came out low. "Jared, I'm sorry. I... I wasn't able to complete the task you gave me. Cloudhaven City right now... isn't stable."

"After the Janis Family was destroyed, several forces in the city started moving. Every one of them wants control of Cloudhaven City.

They agreed before to let us use the Teleportation Array, but things are different now. Even if we offer celestial elixir, they still won't agree."

She paused, then went on:

"I've done everything I could to gather the old Janis retainers and try to hold Cloudhaven City's situation together, but those forces don't take me seriously at all. I'm no match for them. I can barely hold on to what's left of the Janis Family's people. There's no way I can take control of the whole city."

When she finished, the rims of Vivian's eyes had turned red, and she lowered her head again.

She believed she had let Jared down.

She hadn't completed the task Jared gave her.'

She hadn't protected the Janis Family's foundation.'

She hadn't restored Cloudhaven City to the calm it once had.

Jared looked at her quietly and said nothing.

He understood the corner Vivian had been pushed into.

A lone girl, after her family had been wiped out, trying by herself to gather the scattered remnants and take control of an entire city—how could that have been easy?

The forces in Cloudhaven City had roots tangled into each other. Back when House Wagner and the Janis Family still held the city down, all those factions had stayed hidden.

But now House Wagner was finished, the Janis Family was finished too, and the Celestial Palace could no longer reach this far. The factions that had been lying low had started coming out into the open.

As for Vivian, her cultivation was only at High Immortal Realm Level Eight. There also weren't many of the old Janis retainers left at her side, so there was no way she could stand against those forces.
