Upon hearing that, stair quickly pocketed the spirit coins and responded with a smile, “Not a


    problem at all. I know this area like the back of my hand. Let me take the lead. I assure you it’s on the


    house!”


    After bidding farewell to stair, Jared returned to Lunarius Pce!


    By the time it waste into the night, Jared had initially nned to retire to his room for some rest.


    However, he hadn’t expected that Nieva of Lunarius Pce was already waiting for him!


    Nieva turned to Jared and asked, “Mr. Chance, you’vee back sote. Was there something going


    on? If you’re looking to fulfill a need, I’ve already told you, you can choose any disciple from my


    Lunarius Pce. There’s no need for you to feel embarrassed!”


    Upon hearing that, Jared hurriedly exined, “You’ve misunderstood, Ms. Nieva. I simply went to


    Southedge City to buy a few things. Given the perilous nature of the pr region expedition, it was


    essential to make thorough preparations in advance.”


    “How did your endeavor turn out?” asked Nieva.


    “Not bad. The stuff I bought shoulde in handy on the road.”


    “I won’t disturb your rest any longer, but remember, when things get dangerous, you must ensure your


    own safety and escape. You don’t have to concern yourself with those saintly women. I’ll also try to get


    them to cooperate with you as much as possible. The holy maidens can be quite arrogant at times, so


    their words mighte off as unpleasant. Mr. Chance, I hope you won’t take it to heart.”


    “I understand. I won’t hold grudges!” Jared smiled.


    “That’s good!” Nieva had left!


    Jared returned to his room, where he took out the ck tortoiseshell, intricately etched with array


    runes!


    Etching array runes in such a small space was the most draining task, both physically and mentally!


    After a full night, Jared finally finished etching over a dozen ck tortoiseshells.


    With the addition of the array runes etched by Jared on the ck tortoiseshells, it was capable of


    warding off attacks from those who were at Eighth Level Tribtor cultivation level or higher!


    For those holy maidens at Sixth Level Tribtor, it was enough for self-defense!


    After stowing away the ck tortoiseshell, Jared let out a deep sigh. Then, he got up to find Nieva!


    He intended for Nieva to escort him to the ce where the holy maidens were training so he could gift


    them those ck tortoiseshells!

    At that time, Nieva was seated in a courtyard, constantly enveloped by the surrounding chill.


    The temperature there was incredibly cold, yet Nieva was dressed in a gauzy skirt as thin and


    translucent as cicada wings!


    Perhaps she had forgotten about Jared’s presence. She felt that Lunarius Pce was filled with only


    female disciples, so Nieva simply began her cultivation right there in the courtyard!


    When Jared arrived at the pce courtyard, he was instantly stunned at the sight of Nieva dressed in


    thin clothing!


    He hadn’t expected that Nieva would dress like that during training!


    At that moment, Jared was at a loss for what to do! Should I leave, or should I stay here?


    Even though he tried his best to avoid eye contact, his eyes seemed to have a mind of their own,


    always stealing nces when he least expected it!


    Nieva also noticed someone was spying on her.


    Suddenly, she opened her eyes, and a cold light shot out effortlessly!


    Upon seeing the situation, Jared swiftly dodged, narrowly avoiding being hit!


    “Mr. Chance…” Upon seeing Jared, Nieva was taken aback!


    Jared’s face was flushed with embarrassment. He couldn’t bear to look directly at Nieva. Hurriedly, he


    said, “I was hoping that you could take me to the ce where the holy maidens train.”


    “All right!” Nieva nodded, then returned to her room to change her clothes!


    After Nieva had changed her clothes, she noticed that Jared’s face was flushed red, as if she was


    running a fever!


    Observing Jared’s demeanor, Nieva couldn’t help but cover her mouth in amusement. Of course, she


    understood why Jared was behaving in such a way!


    “Mr. Chance, you saved my life and, in truth, I should grant any request you make. Regrettably, I am


    currently entrusted with the mission of Lunarius Pce and cannot engage in a dual cultivation with


    you. Once I have passed on my position to the next holy maiden, I will be at your disposal.” Nieva


    spoke lightly to Jared.


    “You misunderstood. I wasn’t thinking about that. Let’s hurry up and go.” Blushing, Jared hurriedly


    made his way toward the hill behind Lunarius Pce!
