Chapter 1030 My Own Connections
“Why are you looking for me?” asked Jared calmly.
“Jared, I’m here to lend you a hand. I don’t mean you any harm.”
Skylar seemed to sense that Jared was not very welcoming.
“Lend me a hand?” Jared frowned. “What with?”
Howard had only just left after advising him. The very next moment, Skylar appeared. This is too much of a coincidence!
“Jared, I have come a long way. Are you going to make me stand in the courtyard and talk?” said Skylar with a smile.
Jared glanced at him and said, “Come on in.”
Skylar proceeded to go into the room with his men.
The moment he entered, Skylar’s eyes were filled with greed when he spotted the Thousands of Miles Away.
Jared noticed the strange look in Skylar’s eyes and immediately put the painting away in the Storage Ring.
Skylar’s eyes burned with desire when he saw Jared’s Storage Ring.
Just then, the short man spoke, “Mr. Norton, aren’t you going to introduce us?”
It was only then that Skylar regained his composure. He turned to Jared and said, “Jared, this is Karl Gardner, Baron of the Northwest.
Karl embraced Jared before saying, “Jared, I have since heard about you in the northwest. Such a young man like you dares to defy the Warriors Alliance. You will definitely go far!”
“Just get straight to the point!” Jared told Skylar and ignored Karl.
He had never liked Skylar. After Howard’s warning, Jared was on guard against Skylar.
“Jared, I heard that your girlfriend has been taken away by someone. There has been no news of her whereabouts until now?” asked Skylar.
Jared nodded and did not find anything strange. After all, the Norton family was one of the largest families in Jadeborough, so it was not surprising for Skylar to know about this matter.
Skylar continued, “Jared, let me tell you something. Your girlfriend has been taken away by the Warriors Alliance. She’s being locked up in their dungeon.”
“I’m aware of these. If you are here only to tell me such things, you may leave now.”
Jared had no wish to have any dealing with Skylar.
“Don’t be in such a hurry to chase me away. There’s still something you don’t know.”
Skylar smiled, paused, and continued, “Your girlfriend has now become the resource for Zion’s cultivation. Every day, he will take and use her blood. According to what I know, he has also given Edgar a bottle to increase his capability for the Trial!”
The moment Skylar finished talking, Jared stood upright, and a murderous aura rose from within him. Dark clouds began to gather in the bright sky, and the surrounding fell into darkness!
Jared had guessed that when the Warriors Alliance captured Josephine for her fiery constituent, they would definitely extract her blood for research.
However, to hear Skylar say it out loud, Jared could no longer suppress his rage and murderous intent.
“How do you come to know about this?” asked Jared coldly.
“You don’t need to know that. The Warriors Alliance doesn’t own the entire Jadeborough. If I want to find out about something, I’ll have my ways!”
The smile on Skylar’s face widened when he saw the anger on Jared’s face.
“By telling me all these, are you trying to tell me that you can save my girlfriend?”
If Skylar told him that information, then he must have a way to rescue Josephine. However, it would come at a price. It would cost Jared Thousands of Miles Away and the Storage Ring!
“No, no, no.” Skylar waved his hand and continued, “I’m not as powerful as you imagine. Right now, I don’t have the abilities to save anyone from the dungeon of the Warriors Alliance.”
