A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 394

Chapter 394 Instructions Received

If anyone dared betray Fabian, he would kill the parasite in his jar, and the traitor would die along with the parasite in their body.

Similarly, if the parasite in the person’s body died, the one in Fabian’s jar would die as well.

“What the…”

Everyone in the hall was shocked when they saw the dead parasite.

“Jazona may have very powerful martial artists, but I doubt any of them are capable of killing Venicus. Could it be that the Jantz family changed their mind about giving us the herbs as promised? Maybe they killed him after obtaining the pill,” someone guessed.

“That’s impossible. Mr. Quillen has instructed Venicus to not produce the longevity pill until he obtains the herbs. Besides, there’s no way the Jantz family would dare go against Crescent Sect!” someone objected.

“Could it be the Herb Palace’s doing, then? That is their territory, after all. Being a legitimate organization, the Herb Palace has always looked down on sects like ours. Now that one of us is operating in their territory, there’s no way they’d just ignore us!” said a white-haired old man with a deep frown.

“But we have done nothing to provoke the Herb Palace. They may not approve of what we do, but they’ve left us alone for so many years now. Besides, it’s not the first time we’ve sent someone over to Jazona. It wouldn’t make much sense for them to suddenly start picking a bone with us now, would it?” someone questioned that old man’s statement.

“It’s hard to say. Who knows what the Herb Palace is thinking? Also, who else in Jazona is capable of killing Venicus? Those so-called Martial Arts Grandmasters? They’re nothing but a bunch of barbarians!” replied the old man with a disdainful snort.

It was obvious that he didn’t like martial artists very much.

“Right away, sir!”

The butler was about to leave when Spencer called out to him again, “By the way, do we have the herbs ready for the Jantz family? If yes, tell them to make the payment.”

“But we are already short on herbs for our own usage as it is. Why would you agree to sell them to the Jantz family?” the butler asked in confusion.

“The Jantz family has connections in Jadeborough, and these are instructions from the higher-ups. That’s all you need to know,” Spencer replied while motioning at the butler to leave.
