The sight of Jared exuding such confidence left Ghaylen utterly speechless. After all, Jared was merely a cultivator of the Manifestation Level. Although he possessed considerable skill in alchemy, that did not necessarily translate to the same level of overall prowess.
Yet, he was underestimating a warrior of the Body Fusion Realm. Ghaylen couldn't comprehend just who Jared really was, to possess such unwavering confidence.
Conversely, Sigurd merely eyed Jared without saying anything further. Of everyone there, he was the one who understood the man's capabilities best.
Although Ghaylen was unaware of the full extent of Jared's abilities, he was confident that Jared could handle Bilius, considering that Jared himself had affirmed as much.
“I'll go with you, Mr. Chance. If anything happens, I might be of help.”
He decided to go with Jared to seek Bilius out.
Nothing could be allowed to happen to the man. Otherwise, it would also be the end of him.
“Bring some men with you and go with Mr. Chance, Zebediah. This is not a battle between Mr. Chance and Bilius but one that would decide whether we can hold our heads up in the Emerald Cauldron Sect!” Ghaylen said to Zebediah.
At present, everyone knew that Jared had acknowledged Ghaylen as his master and was the latter's disciple. Thus, the duel between him and Bilius was akin to a battle between Ghaylen's and Ebenez's ranks.
If Jared won, all those under Ghaylen's command could hold their heads up and enjoy an elevation of status in the Emerald Cauldron Sect.
“Understood!” Zebediah gave a dip of his head.
Before long, they embarked on their journey to the inner court of Emerald Cauldron Sect. With Sigurd in their company, they encountered no obstructions as they traversed the outer court.
However, many people followed behind them as though anticipating a show, gossiping among themselves.
“I heard that Mr. Samoll's home has been demolished by Bilius. It looks like his disciples are here to seek revenge.”
