Spencer's entire body stiffened, and his expression turned awkward after followingjared's line of sight to the back of the hall.
“You're a talented man, Jared. It'll be beneficial for you to join Herb Palace,” Tristan commented as he came out from the back.
Spencer shot to his feet and stepped away from his seat, offering it to Tristan.
“Mr. Bailey,” he greeted respectfully.
Tristan took a seat opposite Jared.
With a smile, he said, “Let me introduce myself. I'm Tristan from the Baileys of Jadeborough. You feel like an old friend of mine despite this being the first time I'm meeting you.”
Jared smirked, “Would you have sneaked around in the back and hid from me if I were your old friend?”
Jared felt a presence hiding in the back the instant he stepped into the hall. Using his breathing technique, he could sense the latter's internal energy had already reached the Grandmaster level.
Tristan smiled awkwardly after being pointed out by Jared. “Jared, the reason I didn't show myself-”
With a wave of his hand, he stopped Tristan’s explanation. “You don't have to explain to me. I'm not interested in your reason. I'm here because Herb Palace has the medicinal herbs I need.
I'm not planning to join it, but I can give you the prescription for the revitalizing pill. Know that you can't even make it despite having the prescription. So, in exchange for the revitalizing pill, I want the herbs for it.”
Tristan frowned at the finality in Jared's words. He thought the latter would be eager to join Herb Palace after he revealed his identity.
Everyone knew the Baileys of Jadeborough. It was a fact that one's future was brighter if one had strong support from the Baileys. However, Jared didn't care for that at all.
“Jared, I know you’re in a pinch lately. You might have killed Zachariah, but he had a brother, Derek, in Jadeborough. Even though they weren't close, they were blood-related. Derek will surely avenge his brother's death. I also heard the four elders of Crescent Sect had made their moves and headed toward Jazona. I can help you with all of these if you join Herb Palace. You will be under the Baileys' protection,” Tristan said, his gaze pinned on Jared.
