A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance)

Meanwhile, inside Duad Formation Sect, Divinus and Hellion were engrossed in a game of chess. A death warrant from Tenth Hall was laid out before them.

"Divinus, how did Jared manage to cross paths with the people from Celestial Palace in such a short time? Moreover, he even stirred up enough trouble to have Tenth Hall issue a Decree of Execution," Hellion asked after placing a piece of chess.

Divinus said with a slight smile, "Didn't you notice? The Heaven and Earth Array showed signs of disturbance. The only one who could have done this is that brat, Jared. Moreover, considering the timing, Celestial Stairway is about to appear. Ethereal Realm will be in chaos again. Issuing a Decree of Execution at this time will only add fuel to the fire. Moreover, those Celestial Palace folks are incredibly arrogant. It's unlikely they'll ever spend money to get things done. This time, their execution order definitely carried a scent of conspiracy."

"So, what do we do? Are we not helping that brat?" Hellion inquired.

"Help? How can we help? Our cultivation levels are suppressed, so what help could we possibly offer him?" Divinus asked.

Hellion fell silent. This wasn't celestial realm where their powers thrived. Instead, they were suppressed to the point of stagnation. Over the years, not only had they been unable to enhance their abilities, but they had also regressed. Now, even if they wanted to lend a hand, they were simply incapable of doing so. "Let that young man make his own destiny. We shouldn't interfere." Divinus had also made his move on the chessboard before adding, "It's your turn now."

The two individuals began to play chess, no longer concerning themselves with the matter of the Decree of Execution.

In Ethereal Realm, numerous hidden forces had received this Decree of Execution. Despite some harboring doubts about this decree, the allure of a hundred thousand celestial crystals was enough to stir the hearts of many.

Jared, however, was completely unaware of the Decree of Execution from Tenth Hall. Ordinary cultivators from Ethereal Realm simply couldn't receive this Decree of Execution.

Octavion stepped into Jared's room, greeting the latter with a warm smile, "Jared, congratulations."

Ever since Octavion severed his bodily spirit, he found himself smiling more and more.

He had finally broken free from Celestial Palace's control.

At last, he had the freedom to roam around freely and the liberty to be with the one he cherished. "Octavion, what's there to congratulate about?" Jared looked at Octavion with a hint of surprise. He couldn't comprehend what there was to be happy about.

"You'll see once you take a look." As Octavion spoke, he unfurled a sheet of white paper before Jared. When Jared caught sight of the content, he was immediately stunned, his brows involuntarily furrowed. Is this Tenth Hall's Decree of Execution for me? One hundred thousand celestial crystals?

Jared turned to Octavion and asked, "Tenth Hall is too generous. Am I really worth a hundred thousand celestial crystals?"

"Of course, you're not worth it. Even if you were, there's no way we would expend a hundred thousand celestial crystals just to hunt you down. Don't forget that we, the celestials, are a cut above the rest. It's unthinkable for us to resort to such measures,” Octavion chirped.

"Isn't this Tenth Hall's Decree of Execution?" Jared asked in surprise.

"Yes, but I can assure you that this Decree of Execution could never have come from my father. He couldn't possibly have come up with a hundred thousand celestial crystals. It must have been

someone else's doing," Octavion replied.

"Others? In Tenth Halls, besides your father, is there anyone else with such immense authority?" Jared

was utterly puzzled. Isn't this something only the overlord of Tenth Hall is capable of?

"My father's authority isn't as vast as you might imagine. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been confined in Tenth Hall for hundreds of years. This must have been because my father saw my bodily spirit lamp extinguished and mistakenly thought you had killed me, which is why he sent someone for revenge. This Decree of Execution must have been the work of the dispatched individual," Octavion analyzed.

"Do you have any idea who that is?" Jared asked.

"If my guess is correct, the person sent must be Quenric. He's the only one audacious enough to pull off

something like this."

When Octavion mentioned Quenric, his eyes were clearly filled with hostility.
