Chapter 1254 Refuge
When Desmond saw Jared had arrived, he stood up. “Hello, Mr. Chance! I’m here on behalf of Lord Frey to invite you to Divine Beast Sect. You see, Lord Frey has heard of your good name, and he’s very interested in meeting you!”
“He wants to meet me? This isn’t a scheme, is it? I killed your leader’s godson. Doesn’t he want revenge?” Jared asked cautiously.
As the saying went, there was always a reason behind a person’s flattery.
He had nothing to do with Divine Beast Sect. Additionally, he killed Richard’s godson, yet he was invited to meet him.
Anyone could tell that there was something fishy…
“Haha, you’re quite the joker, Mr. Chance. Peyton is just one of Lord Frey’s many godsons. Why would Lord Frey care? He has more than a dozen of them around so Peyton isn’t that important.” Desmond smiled.
When Jared heard that, he suddenly realized Peyton meant nothing to Richard at all, even though Peyton was using his godfather’s name to do whatever he wanted.
Seeing how Desmond didn’t appear to be a devious person, Jared nodded. “Fine. I’ll meet with your leader!”
After exchanging a few words with Cecilia, he headed to Divine Beast Sect with Desmond.
It was a two-hour drive from Crimson Palace to Divine Beast Sect.
When they arrived at Divine Beast Sect, Jared learned the true meaning of luxury.
The sect was full of mansions with traditional designs. The environment was exceedingly pleasant, as though it was a tourist resort.
Desmond brought him to one of the mansions. When they entered the building, they could see a giant seat with tiger skin on it.
Richard, the leader of Divine Beast Sect, was sitting on that seat. There were a couple of Martial Arts Grandmasters standing around him.
