The Man's Decree

Chapter 2620 I Will Come With You

Jared removed the slip of paper. Upon unfolding it, he learned that the pretty bird had come from Imperial Beast City and that the note was written by Ivasha.

She told him that the Mole Monster from Imperial Beast City had never stolen from the village and that it was likely the beasts from other cities who did; thievery was strictly not allowed in Yuven's kingdom.

As it was not Imperial Beast City, it was very likely the doing of Mole Monsters from Norwal City. Jared prayed that the Mole Monster who had stolen the Divine Bow was not aware of its true value.

Since he had no means of heading to Norwal City for a proper investigation, the only thing he could do was to take care of things in Emerald Cauldron Sect and increase his power before heading off to search for the Divine Bow.

Jared sent the bird back, then shut his window in preparation for another bout of cultivation.

Jared did not emerge from his room over the following three days. His meals were brought to him. He sat in silence and waited for the medicinal pool to be opened.

That day, Jared had just settled himself down to cultivate as was his custom when a commotion came outside his door. The noise of people quarreling roused him from his concentration, so he went outside.
