Chapter 758 Cannot Sit Back And Do Nothing
Shawn frowned, feeling very much conflicted.
That gilt pot was his favorite. It was rumored to have been dug out of a queen’s mausoleum and was stunningly beautiful.
However, Curtis had spoken, and not only had he cured Shawn’s wife, but Shawn himself had also given his word. If I were to say no to his request now, that would only disgrace me.
“All right, then. Since you like it, I’ll give it to you as a gift,” he relented with a helpless sigh.
He then threw a look at a servant, upon which the latter left in a hurry.
Shortly after, the servant came back with a gilt pot.
“Curtis, this gilt pot is invaluable, so do keep it safe.”
Taking the gilt pot from the servant, Shawn reluctantly presented it to Curtis.
Curtis nodded slightly. He said nothing, but sheer excitement had long since been etched across his features.
Accepting the gilt pot, he promptly placed the sinister spirit in the porcelain bottle into it. After doing that, he bid Shawn farewell and made to leave.
Alas, he was stopped by Jared just as he was about to leave.
“Actually, the fact that you know Soul Manipulation Technique has nothing to do with me. However, I can’t sit back and do nothing when you’re using it to harm others,” Jared remarked placidly.
The instant he uttered the words “Soul Manipulation Technique,” Curtis’ initially arrogant expression cracked. At the same time, the corners of Callum’s eyes twitched.
“Who do you think you are that you dare stop Curtis from leaving?” Callum stepped forward and demanded with fury written all over his face.
“What are you doing, Mr. Chance?” Spencer queried cautiously upon seeing that Jared was hindering Curtis from leaving and even said something entirely foreign to him.
Spencer didn’t quite know what Jared was doing either, so he could only glance back over his shoulder at the man. “What exactly is the problem here, Mr. Chance?” he inquired.
He felt that Jared wasn’t a petty man and certainly wouldn’t make a move against Curtis because of that alone.
“Since you’re all so curious, I’ll show you what I mean!”
After saying that, Jared abruptly lifted both hands and unleashed a burst of power at lightning speed. At once, a white light flashed in the room. Subsequently, shock pervaded everyone present.
Jane was so terrified that she shrieked at the top of her lungs. They could all see numerous clouds of black mist floating about the room and taking on different shapes like sinister spirits out for blood.
The clouds of black mist were exactly the same as the ones Curtis absorbed into the porcelain bottle earlier. However, there were so many then that they filled the entire room.
Other than Jared and Curtis, the faces of everyone there drained of all color from the fright. Even Spencer, who had experienced much and cultivated for some time, was scared witless by the scene before him and trembled violently.

Josephine's first time seeing Jared kill isn't with Leyton but with Falcon. Pay attention to your work....
You need to correct yourself,dear author. Josephine was in the City of Herbs when she was a kid, so why is the city's smell surprising to her?...
I need more chapters...
When can I get the next chapter...
