Chapter 2508 Protection Mechanism
“Mr. Flaxseed should know about the Ethereal Realm. Shall we go and ask him how to enter the place?” Hailey, who
had remained silent throughout it all, suggested.
“Yes! Let's go and ask Mr. Flaxseed. I think he's pretty knowledgeable,” Astrid seconded.
Since everyone shared the same sentiments, Cecilia led them to seek Flaxseed out.
When Flaxseed saw that Jared's women had all come knocking on his door, guilt promptly flooded him. He thought
that they had discovered that he had often eavesdropped on them.
“We've got something to ask you, Mr. Flaxseed...”
Cecilia proceeded to narrate the chain of events to the man.
The moment Flaxseed heard that Jared had not only been sucked away by a black hole and gone to Ethereal Realm
but was also severely injured, panic showed on his face.
“I know a bit about Ethereal Realm, but one needs to attain a certain level of capabilities to enter the place, tearing

that.”
Indeed, Flaxseed had been to Ethereal Realm with Jared just a while ago. Alas, he was incapable of opening a portal
leading there.
The instant the few girls heard that powerful capabilities were required to tear open time and space, they all fell
silent.
“I'll go back and ask my father whether there's anything he can do.”
Evangeline planned to go and ask Chester whether he could open a portal to Ethereal Realm.
After all, her father was the most powerful among them all. Be that as it may, she knew deep within that he
undoubtedly could not accomplish that. Otherwise, he would have long since gone to Ethereal Realm instead of
pining over it every day.
However, there was nothing else they could do then, so it was better than doing nothing.
Just when she was about to go and seek her father out, Xavier walked in.
“Captain Jennings?”
The sight of Xavier there puzzled Cecilia and the others.
They often went to the Department of Justice to learn about cultivation from Arthur and were considered familiar
with Xavier. However, Xavier rarely came to Deragon Sect, so they could not fathom the reason for his sudden visit.
“Ms. Cecilia, Mr. Sanders left me a letter to hand to you all before he left.”
Xavier hurried off after handing the letter to Cecilia.
Following that, they were all the more perplexed. They could not quite understand why Arthur, who was deceased,
had prepared a letter for them in advance.
“Quick, open it for a look!” Flaxseed urged anxiously.
Cecilia hurriedly opened the letter, upon which everyone crowded over for a look.
When they had finished reading the latter, helplessness was etched across their features.
“Oh no, we've got no way of saving Jared now!”
“How could this be? Could it be that Mr. Sanders had predicted that Jared would be sucked into the Ethereal Realm
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmages ago?”
“Mr. Sanders is truly mysterious. It's as though like he can foretell everything!”
All the girls exclaimed aloud, one after another.
Flaxseed, on the other hand, was embarrassed to join them earlier and did not see the contents of the letter. For
that reason, he questioned frantically, “What's going on? What did Mr. Sanders say?”
“Mr. Sanders told us to focus on cultivating, for portals between Ethereal Realm and the mundane world can't be
opened within a year. With the restoration of spiritual energy, the laws of nature would disappear, and the
protection mechanism of the mundane world would be automatically activated. That aside, he said he wasn't sure
what would become of the mundane world a year later. Thus, we must cultivate diligently so we can help Jared in
the future. On top of that, he assured us that Jared would be safe and told us not to worry,” Cecilia briefly explained
the contents of the letter.
Having listened to it all, Flaxseed plunged into silent contemplation. A moment later, he remarked, “Without the
one-year protection period, it would really be difficult to tell what would become of the mundane world. It looks like
we've truly got to put our backs into cultivating.”
In the following year, he indeed started cultivating madly, during which he refrained from indulging in carnal
activities. Of course, that was what happened later.
