Tigerus had been locked up in the water dungeon for three days, but his freedom wasn't restricted at all.
Tigerus had been observing. Once Xandros and his men lay in ambush near the city, he would walk out of the water dungeon and invite Yuven and Ivasha to a meal where he would spike their food.
Meanwhile, Jared had spent three whole days cultivating. On top of trying to understand Thunder Palm, he continued to refine the demonic fire within his body, hoping to one day amalgamate the two.
On that particular day, Jared was busy cultivating when Ivasha brought him a meal that she had personally prepared.
Over the last few days, she had assumed responsibility for all his daily needs.
Although Jared was cognizant of her intentions and recognized the effort she had put in, he was not in a position to promise her anything yet.
“It's time to eat,” Ivasha said.
Just as Jared slowly opened his eyes to get out of bed for his meal, a red light flashed across his waist. Viola's anxious voice rang out.
Before he left, he had given Viola a communication device so that she could get in touch with him during emergencies.
“Jared, where are you?”
“Ms. Warwick, I'm somewhere near the base of Emerald Cauldron Sect. What's wrong?”
Jared didn't say that he was in Imperial Beast City for fear that Viola might get the wrong idea. After all, without alchemy as a barrier, Imperial Beast City and human sects were on hostile terms with each other.
“Thank God. You should hurry back. Hosen is on his way here with his men to attack us. I have already ordered for the main gate to be sealed and Mountain Defense Formation to be activated. However, it won't stop them for long. This time, Hosen has brought with him the beast cultivators from Norwal City who are all formidable opponents!”
“Got it. I'll head back at once. Hang in there and wait for me!”
Jared ended the call and dashed right out without hesitation.
