The Mans Decree
Chapter 3998

“Mr. Barclay, this is the new disciple you’ve taken under your wing, the one who defeated Thiago?” Harlan turned to Dario and asked.

“Indeed. Due to my lack of guidance, my disciple has caused trouble. I’m willing to accept any punishment, Mr. Garrido.”

Dario had no choice but to shoulder the blame for Jared.

Harlan glanced at Jared coldly.

Then, he said to Dario, “For trespassing on forbidden ground, the normal course of action would be to strip the person of his cultivation and banish him from the sect. However, considering that it’s his first offense, and it was unintentional, he shall be punished to reflection in Reflection Cliff for three days.”

After he had finished speaking, he blurred and vanished in a blink of an eye.

Berthold gave Jared a cold glance, then promptly left as well.

Dario and Judd landed in front of Jared, the former’s eyes brimming with displeasure.

“I’ve told you I would definitely take you to meet Mr. Ortiz when the opportunity arose. Yet, you dared come here on your own. Thankfully, Harlan has been preoccupied with activating Divine Flame Mountain these past few days.

So, he didn’t take any serious action. Otherwise, you wouldn’t only have been confined to Reflection Cliff for three days.”

He knew that Jared was there on purpose.

“I’ve already met Mr. Ortiz, so there’s no need to look for an opportunity anymore!” Jared declared with a faint smile.

“What?”

Dario and Judd were both utterly astonished.

“How could that be? To meet Mr. Ortiz, you would have had to pass through several arcane arrays. At the end of it, there are even several kinds of superimposed arcane arrays. On top of that, there’s a killing array among them. Even Mr. Cunningham admitted that he couldn’t get through them. How could you possibly have navigated through all the arcane arrays and met with Mr. Ortiz?”

Dario clearly didn’t believe Jared.

“If you don’t believe me, that’s fine. I truly saw Mr. Ortiz. His madness is gone. However, his spiritual sense suffered severe damage. He needs some time to recover. Once he has fully recovered, he will resume control over Violet Flame Sect,” Jared said.

“Are you serious, Axel? You’re not lying to us, are you?” Judd asked, his face filled with excitement.

If Mr. Ortiz has recovered and will resume control of Violet Flame Sect, we won’t have to put up with Harlan anymore!

“How can you prove that you’ve met with Mr. Ortiz?”

Dario scrutinized Jared, for he truly couldn’t believe the latter’s claim.

If he’s telling the truth, it’s fantastic news for us!

“I don’t have any proof, but all I’ve said is true. If you don’t believe me, you can see for yourself…”

After Jared had finished speaking, he gently stepped forward, intending to touch the arcane array in front of him with his hand.

“What are you doing? If you activate the arcane array again, it won’t just be a three-day confinement in Reflection Cliff.”

Dario couldn’t tell what exactly he was up to.

Still, Jared slowly reached out and touched the arcane array. A flash of white light manifested. Surprisingly, the arcane array wasn’t activated. Instead, a massive opening appeared.

Passing through the opening, Jared went right through the arcane array.

He went back and forth in the same manner for about three or four times.

Then, he waved his hand again, upon which the arcane array was restored as if nothing had ever happened.

Dario and Judd stared at Jared, both utterly flabbergasted.

Neither of them could fathom why the man knew array craft.

Could it be that he’s an array master?

“You now believe that I can meet with Mr. Ortiz, yes? These so-called arcane arrays are no different than child’s play in my eyes. They can’t stop me at all. However, what I’ve shared with you must remain a secret. We can’t risk Harlan finding out and attacking out of desperation,” Jared said to Dario.

“Don’t worry. No one will find out about it.”

Dario looked at Jared in astonishment and continued, “However, you still have to spend three days in Reflection Cliff. I’m afraid I can’t plead for you on this matter.”

“Violet Flame Sect doesn’t even have a mountain. Where did this so-called Reflection Cliff come from? Besides, it’s only for three days. It’s the perfect opportunity for me to focus on cultivating!”

Conversely, Jared didn’t mind spending three days in Reflection Cliff.
