The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1874

Chapter 1874 Something Was Amiss

In spite of that, those people did not feel evil to him at all.

As for those black-robed men in Warriors Alliance, they had spirits possessing them and exuded an evil aura.

Perhaps the two sects broke up because they held different beliefs.

Jared felt that he would have to see Demonic Cultivators and demon spirits in a new light in the future.

“Honestly, our lord is the most lovely person I have ever seen in my life. He gives off a fatherly feeling every single time I see him!”

Admiration was written all over Jessica's face.

Jared frowned and found it strange that Jessica was singing praises about her lord. “Your lord wears a mask and talks weirdly. I can't seem to sense the fatherly feeling that you're talking about.”

“That's because you have never seen our lord in the past. He used to appear even more polite and refined than our second-in-command. Unfortunately, there was a fire five years ago, and it ruined our lord's face. Since then, his temperament changed drastically. From then on, I have never spoken to him again.”

Jessica looked sad as she recounted the past.

“How qualified is your vice sect leader?”

As far as Jared was concerned, Patrick did not look very old. Surprisingly, he was able to become the vice-sect leader of Demon Sect.

Furthermore, Jared also noticed that Patrick seemed to be more powerful than the lord himself.

That was why Jared got curious and asked Jessica that question.

“Our vice sect leader has only been here for six years. Although he joined the sect after I did, he is a very outstanding and capable man. Ever since our lord is injured in the fire, Mr. Sullivan was chosen to be our vice sect leader. He has been helping our lord run Demon Sect since then,” said Jessica.

Jared frowned when he heard that. Something felt amiss to him, but he could not put his finger on it.

Patrick had been nothing but respectful to Jared, and he appeared very sincere too. He had even revealed the secret of Demon Sect to Jared as well.

Yet, Jared felt that there was something mysterious about Patrick.

“Hmph! Outstanding, my foot! What's so good about him? He's just more handsome than me, that's all. He's just a toyboy...”

When Flaxseed heard Jessica praising Patrick, he became annoyed.

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

Jessica frowned and stared angrily at Flaxseed.

Jared took note of the woman's anger and quickly said, “Sorry about that, Ms. Zimmerman. We'll go and take our rest first.”

With that, Jared dragged Flaxseed away with him.

“Hmph! That toyboy is up to no good. That silly girl must have been fooled by him.”

Flaxseed was very jealous of the way Jessica was singing praises about Patrick.

“All right, that's enough. That's none of your business. But, there's definitely something amiss with Patrick. I can't explain the gut feeling I have, though,” said Jared as he furrowed his brows.

“What's wrong? Did the discussion not go well? Is that place Demon Sect's resources area?” asked Flaxseed when he saw the look on Jared's face.

To that, Jared shook his head. “Demon Sect doesn't have any resources area. However, they do have a magical map.”

Thereafter, Jared began telling Flaxseed everything that happened in the main hall.

“I can't believe such a magical map exists in the world!” Flaxseed exclaimed after hearing Jared's description.

A map that could predict the growth location of precious herbs was unheard of.

After Jared and Flaxseed stayed in the secret realm for another day, they started to find the place extremely boring.

After all, the secret realm was too small, and there was nothing special there. In the end, the two men decided to leave the place and head to Norham.

There was another reason why Jared wanted to go to Norham. He wanted to know if Austin was truly able to absorb the entire city's natural energy.

After gaining approval, Jessica took Jared and Flaxseed out of the secret realm and into Norham.
