The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1882

Chapter 1882 Herbs

Jessica cast a confounded look at Patrick. She didn't know if he was being truthful.

Noticing her doubtful manner, Patrick caressed Jessica's cheeks with his finger and said, “When have I ever lied to you? Don't worry and go look for Jared. He's definitely all right.”

Jessica's face flushed crimson at Patrick's touch. She nodded and said, “Okay. I'm going to find him...”

She exited the secret realm and arrived at the Zagorski residence.

As expected, she was greeted by the sight of Jared chatting with Austin over coffee. Meanwhile, Kayson was meekly standing beside the two, keeping his head low.

Austin spotted Jessica and cast a meaningful glance at Jared. “Mr. Chance, is this the friend you've been talking about?”

Jared nodded. “Yes. She's Jessica Zimmerman.”

“Hello, Mr. Zagorski,” Jessica greeted him.

“Haha! No wonder you've come all the way to this desolate place. It seems that even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman.”

Austin assumed that Jared and Jessica were an item.

Jared did not correct the man and merely smiled in response.

Meanwhile, Jessica said, “We should go...”

After Jared bade goodbye to Austin, he went back to the secret realm with Jessica.

Jared didn't even bother to go look for Flaxseed, as he knew that the latter would disappear for at least three days if he had gone fooling around with women.

After returning to the secret realm, Jared wanted to check out the chaos dimension again. However, as Flaxseed was not around, he decided against the idea. He was afraid that others might compromise his physical body after his spirit left his body without anyone guarding it.

However, whenever he closed his eyes, the image of the ten-thousand-year-old tuber fleeceflower would appear in his mind. It was something so rare that not even the prestigious families had ever seen the likes of it.

In the late evening, Jessica suddenly approached Jared. “Mr. Chance, Mr. Sullivan is looking for you.”

Jared was befuddled. Why is Patrick looking for me at this hour?

Jared met Patrick, who wasted no time beating around the bush. “Mr. Chance, the map shows there will be herbs appearing on a mountain west of Norham. We have no idea what kind of herb it will be as well. However, we can be certain of one thing—the volume will be big. As a token of sincerity, we're going to hand over this batch of herbs to you. Demon Sect will not take a single ounce out of this discovery.”

“Could you let me have a look at the map?” Jared asked.

“Of course.”

Patrick led Jared into the secret room. Jared saw a golden light flashing continuously at a location marked on the map, which was west of Norham, blipping brighter and faster with every passing second.

“Hmm? Why is the marking for the location different this time?” Patrick mumbled in confusion.

“Why? What's different?” Jared asked.

“The marking was usually red, not gold. Besides, it never used to flash this rapidly and brightly. Why did the light become golden? It was still red when I discovered it just now...”

Patrick frowned in befuddlement as he took a closer look at the map.

“Mr. Sullivan, can the map tell us when the herbs will appear?” Jared continued to ask.

“About three days later, but we won't be able to tell the specific time,” Patrick replied.

“Okay. I'm going to look for it three days later.”

For reasons unbeknownst to him, anticipation filled Jared's heart as he watched the blipping golden light on the map.

“Mr. Chance, I hope you can make your preparations earlier. If you head there three days later, I'm afraid nothing would be left...” Patrick reminded.

After all, the whole Norham was under the Zagorski family's control. Hence, the Zagorskis would be the first to know if any herbs were appearing.
