Chapter 1684

Chapter 1684“Autumn, why does it feel like someone has been in this hot spring?” Hailey commented with a frown. “I
can seem to sense Jared’s aura here.”
Autumn giggled before saying, “Ms. Hargreaves, don’t be silly. How could someone have been here?
Even if someone did come, it wouldn’t be Jared. You’ve been mentioning Jared on and off ever since
you came back. You can’t have fallen for him, right? I hope you remember that he’s just a normal
person from the mundane world. He’s no match for you. Moreover, you’re engaged to Mr. Lassen.
Please don’t let your thoughts stray anymore.”
“Who’s interested in him? It was just a passing thought.”
With that, Hailey began absorbing the spiritual energy inside the hot spring. Back in Medicine God
Sect, Jared opened the door and realized Axton had returned.
“Ms. Knox, how was it? Have you gathered all the medicinal herbs?” Jared asked, his brows raised in
delight.
“My Lord, I’ve found most of the medicinal .herbs, but there is still one thing I can’t find- Century Eye
Herb,” Axton uttered, embarrassed.
Jared knitted his brows. “It’s true that Century Eye Herb is hard to find. It has no roots and bears no
fruit. Furthermore, it only lives for a short time. Finding it would take a long time indeed.”
“My Lord, if we can ask the wanderers about it, they might be able to tell us where to find it. I’m afraid
we’ll waste too much time if we were to look for it ourselves,” Axton suggested.
He knew Jared was anxious to get the herbs as quickly as possible, so he was trying to think of ways to
get the final herb in the swiftest manner.Encounter with herbs like Century Eye Herb was decided by fate. It might take a year and a half to find
it, but five years might also pass before they could locate it.
“You don’t need to look for Century Eye Herb anymore. Store the other medicinal herbs you’ve found
well, and I’ll think of another method for this…”
Jared decided to go to Flaxseed.
That man wanders everywhere in search of ancient ruins and tombs. Since he’s traveled across the
country, it’s likely that he’ll know where to find Century Eye Herb.
Without wasting a second, Jared brought Evangeline with him and took a plane to Whitesea, where
Flaxseed was enjoying his life.
Flaxseed was currently revered by the
Simmonses.
After Tristan and Megan got married, they returned to Jadeborough and waited for their baby to be
born.
In the meantime, Flaxseed stayed in Whitesea and let the Simmonses deal with all the necessities in
his life.
It was a wondrous time for him.
When Jared came to Flaxseed, he was greeted by the sight of the latter being fed fruits by two beautiful
women.
At that, Jared loudly cleared his throat. “Ahem!”
Hearing the sound, Flaxseed tilted his head and looked over. When he saw that it was Jared, hehastily dismissed the two women. “Jared, why are you here?” he asked in surprise.
novelbin“Perhaps the renowned Mr. Flaxseed would be gone from this world if I didn’t come. The peace in your
lifestyle is going to rot you from the inside, Jared remarked, shooting Flaxseed at glare.
“Haha! Don’t worry. No jewelry or beautiful women are going to be better than the treasures in ancient
tombs! It’s because you’re not around, and I don’t have the guts to go to Skywrath Sect myself. There
wasn’t anything for me to do, so I decided to chat with the ladies instead. Also, you have a beautiful
woman by your side too! In fact, there are more pretty ladies by your side than by mine, so stop trying
to stand on the moral high ground!”
With that, Flaxseed patted Jared on his shoulder smilingly, rendering the latter speechless.
“Hey there, pretty lady!” Flaxseed greeted Evangeline, but she did not show any reaction.
Jared was about to say something to Flaxseed, only to see the latter’s expression turning tense. In the
next second, Flaxseed fished out a charm and muttered a chant under his breath before sticking the
charm on Evangeline’s forehead.
“Mr. Flaxseed, what are you doing?” Jared asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
“This woman has no trace of life on her; she only has ghoul energy. This is a zombie puppet. Young
man, you’ve been deceived,” Flaxseed solemnly said to Jared.
