The Mans Decree Chapter 2907

Chapter 2907 Ice Palace

After a while of rest, the group continued their way. Jared was still the one taking the lead as the others silently followed him. No one wanted to take the risk, after all.

More than an hour had passed since then. Jared’s group had no idea how far down below the icy layers they had reached. Nevertheless, the path ahead soon brightened up. A palace made of ice appeared before them.

There were unusual auras around them that formed mists and made the palace almost indiscernible. “How majestic! This must be the location where the treasure is hidden!” “Wow, I never thought that the Archaic Body cultivators’ treasure would be in a place as grand as this.”

“I wonder what treasures lie in this palace. Let’s hurry up and get inside.”

Unable to hold themselves back, some were already rushing toward the inside of the palace. Seeing that, Jerison quickly led the servants toward the palace as well, but Jared stopped him.

“Don’t move. I have a feeling it’s not that simple,” Jared said to Jerison.

“What’s not simple? Can’t you see that those people are already on their way into the palace? If we’re far behind them, we won’t get anything!” Jerison said loudly.

“Mr. Chance, are we really not going in? Maybe the treasure is within the palace before us.” Even Cloud was starting to get impatient.

“No. Even if there’s treasure inside, it won’t be so easy to take it out.”

Just as Jared said that, a roar echoed in the area, frightening every soul present. The cloud of mist had turned into various ferocious beasts that began attacking those who ran into the palace.

Some could not react to the change in time and were frozen into glacial statues by the mist beasts. Many quickly retreated, and more were looking at the mist beasts in shock.

When Jerison saw that, he could not help but break out in a cold sweat. If not for Jared stopping him earlier, he would have ended up like the victims. Now, in the face of the mist beasts, no one dared to make any rash moves.

“Sunny, Lofton, let’s do this together. These illusionary beasts are nothing to be afraid of. Let’s get inside,” Konce suggested.

“Okay.” Lofton nodded. However, Sunny did not speak. It seemed that he did not wish to remain in the same team as the other two anymore. After all, what those two had done had broken his heart.

From now on, Sunny was only going to follow Jared. If Jared went in, then Sunny would enter the palace too. Seeing that Sunny was silent, Konce grew annoyed, but there was nothing he could say about that in a place like this.

Jared studied the cloud of mist, his spiritual sense piercing through the mist to seek its origin. Soon, Jared found transparent beast cores surrounded by the thick mist.

It was only because of these beast cores that the mist could transform into various beasts to launch their attacks. Jared’s lips quirked up. He turned to Sunny and said, “Sir, why don’t we work together to test out these mist beasts?” “Sure,” came Sunny’s swift response.

“Cloud, come with us. The three of us will work together. Remember, we’re only against one cloud of mist. Don’t approach the other clouds,” Jared reminded them.

“Of course.” Cloud bobbed his head.

Jared had chosen them both because they were the most powerful ones in the group. Jared did not know much about the strength of the mist beasts, so he dared not let the others experiment rashly.

Jared took out his Dragonslayer Sword, which was emanating demonic fire. The demonic fire was the best weapon against beasts with frost energy like these.

“Charge!”

Jared darted forward at the sight of a lone cloud of mist.

Both Cloud and Sunny followed closely behind.

Chapter 1 Released From Prison “I'm finally out,” Jared Chance exclaimed as he forcefully took a deep breath of fresh air. Behind him was Horington Prison, where he had been locked up for the past three years. Today was the day he was released. “Hmm, I wonder how my parents are doing.” With a torn canvas bag on his back, Jared hurried home right away. Over the last three years, his parents never visited him. Hence, he was worried about them. On the way home, Jared kept looking at the bronze-colored ring he was wearing. There was a lifelike dragon carved on it. On top of the dragon's head was a special symbol. The ring was given to him by Draco, a friend from prison. Draco was a strange man. He would constantly ramble on about how he was the leader of the Dragon Sect and knew everything, including astrology, geography, medicine, and many more. Not only that, he even claimed that he could bring back someone from the dead. Everyone treated Draco as a madman and ignored him accordingly. Only Jared would chat with him and share his food occasionally. Draco would tell Jared all sorts of strange stories about the Dragon Sect and Dragon Island. These were names that Jared had never heard before. Moreover, Draco would get Jared to accompany him in his meditation and martial arts training. Given how bored Jared was in prison, he gladly went along with it. At the end of three years, Jared had learned a plethora of martial art techniques and medical skills from Draco. On the fateful day of Jared's release, Draco gave the ring to Jared and told him to go to Nameless Island within the Eastern Sea on the fifteenth of July that year. There, he was supposed to flash his ring and someone would pick him up. When that happened, Jared would be bestowed with a wonderful opportunity. Considering how much he had learned from Draco, Jared naturally took his words seriously and promised to do as he was told. Nevertheless, there were still a few more months to go before July. Before he knew it, Jared had arrived at the entrance to his home. When he saw the dilapidated house in front of him, he felt a sense of bitterness, as he had no knowledge of how his parents held up during the three years. Due to my rash actions, my parents must have suffered a lot. Thinking back to what had happened three years ago, Jared was filled with anger. Back then, he and his girlfriend, Sandy Gibson, were at the stage where they were talking about marriage. They were classmates at university and had been in a relationship for two years. One day, when he was walking Sandy back home, both of them ran into Leyton Scott, who was drunk. Leyton was a rich kid in Horington, well-known for all his misdeeds. When he saw how pretty Sandy was, he harbored lecherous intentions against her and began touching her physically. As a famous rich kid, Leyton didn't even bother to look at Jared. Consequently, Jared was incensed when he saw his girlfriend being taken advantage of. Picking up a brick from the ground, he smashed it onto Leyton's head. One didn't need to be a genius to guess the outcome. Considering how powerful Leyton was, he called the police, who arrested Jared. Because of that, Jared was sentenced to three years in prison for assault. After hesitating for a long time, Jared knocked gently on the door. “Who is it?” When the door opened, a hunched-back old lady with a headful of white hair popped her head out. Reaching out one hand as if to feel something, she asked, “Who is it? Who's knocking on the door?” The old lady's eyes were closed shut. It could not be more obvious that she was blind. Jared was stunned the moment he saw her. His eyes widened in shock while his entire body trembled slightly. He could not believe that the old, wrinkled lady was his mother, Hannah Thompson. How did Mom end up in such a state in just three years' time? “Mom, it's me. Jared!” Jared called out emotionally as he stepped forward to support her. “Jared? Is it really you?” As Hannah used her hands to feel Jared's face, tears could not help but roll down her cheeks. “Mom, it's me. It's really me.” Tears were also welling up in Jared's eyes. “Mom, what happened to you?” Jared was baffled as to how his previously healthy mother turned out this way after just three short years. “Um, it's a long story. Come in first before we talk.” Hannah pulled Jared into the house. Seeing how empty their decrepit house was, Jared was shocked beyond belief. Although they were not rich, his father had a steady job. Therefore, they previously led a simple yet comfortable life. “Mom, what happened to our house?” Jared questioned in horror. Hannah let out a sigh. “After you left...” His mother then related everything to him. After Jared was sent to prison, the Scott family didn't look past the matter. Instead, they demanded a million in compensation. Left without a choice, Jared's parents sold the house they bought for his marriage and borrowed a lot of money. Even then, it was not enough. Finally, they had to pay the last three hundred thousand in installments. Thus, Jared's father lost his job and could only find work as a street cleaner. As for his mother, she cried all day long until she went blind. That was also the reason why his parents never visited him. While listening to his mother, Jared gradually clenched his fist as his eyes glowed with murderous intent. He had not expected the Scott family to show his family no mercy. “Mom, did Sandy not help you at all?” Jared asked in a puzzled tone. Sandy and I were about to be married. Furthermore, I was jailed defending her honor. Hence, there's no way she can sit idly by and watch my parents end up in this state, can she? Letting out a sigh, Hannah replied, “Let's not bring that up. Not only did the Gibson family ignore us, but they also didn't even return the betrothal gift when I asked for it back. They claimed it wasn't their fault that the wedding fell through because you went to prison. That's why they refused to return it.” “When your dad argued with them, he was even beaten for it.” The more Hannah talked about it, the more depressed she became. In the end, her tears just would not stop.
