Chapter 2526 Grateful
Emily nodded, and only then did she flash a faint smile.
“Jared, why don't I go with you to gather herbs? I'm familiar with the terrain here.”
Percy wanted to tag along with Jared to collect herbs.
In fact, he had another plan in mind, which was to learn some skills from Jared. If he could acquire alchemy skills
and become an alchemist, that would be great.
Jared could fathom Percy's intention, but he said, “Percy, you can come with me to gather herbs another time. Ali
and the others are hurt, so you should escort them back to the village for now.”
“Jared, please let Percy go with you. We've already left the Demon Wolves' territory, so there shouldn't be any more
danger. We can make it back on our own.” Ali also wished Percy could learn more from Jared.

would become a significant asset to the village.
Hearing Ali's words, Jared agreed and left the party with Percy to collect some herbs.
As the spiritual energy of the Ethereal Realm was abundant, there were countless spiritual plants in the mountains.
Those plants would be priceless treasures in the mundane world, but in the Ethereal Realm, they were no different
from wild grasses, left unharvested.
Even though the mundane world's spiritual energy had been restored now, those spiritual plants couldn't mature
within a short period. Some spiritual plants required ten years or even a century to grow.
“Percy, do you see this? This oval, light green leaf is called...” Jared explained to Percy as he gathered the medicinal
herbs.
He was merely imparting the latter with some fundamental knowledge for being an alchemist.
After all, there was no way for one to qualify as an alchemist if one couldn't differentiate between herbs.
Percy was a dedicated student. He remembered everything Jared had taught him after only one explanation. Then,
he started helping Jared to collect the herbs.
Before nightfall, Jared and Percy returned to Rock Village with many herbs.
Ali and the others had long since returned. Antonio had already arranged for others to help those injured clean
their wounds and apply a black ointment.
Those were folk remedies from Rock Village. Some people who couldn't afford medical treatment could only apply
those remedies to their wounds; whether they could heal was up to fate.
When Jared and Percy arrived at Rock Village, Antonio and all the villagers were waiting for them in the village
square.
At the sight of Jared's return, Antonio and everyone from Rock Village knelt before him.

If Jared hadn't rescued Ali and the others, Rock Village would have lost its younger generations, and their survival
would become even more difficult.
“Mr. Antonio, what are you doing? Please stand up.” Jared hurriedly helped Antonio up and asked the other villagers
to get to their feet as well.
“Mr. Chance, if it weren't for you, Ali and the others wouldn't have made it back this time. Ali told me everything. I
didn't expect you to be an alchemist. You sure are adept at concealing your talents,” Antonio said to Jared.
“This is my obligation. If it weren't for Rock Village, I probably would've died in the jungle.”
As Jared spoke, he took out all the Demon Wolf carcasses from his Storage Ring and said, “Mr. Antonio, have
someone deal with these carcasses. I'm going to craft some pills to speed up Ali and the others' recovery.”
“Okay, all right, sure! Feel free to let us know if you need anything, Mr. Chance. Everyone at Rock Village will be at
your service from now on,” Antonio responded fervently.
Jared didn't ask for anything. He merely requested a pot and then hastened back to Emily's house to start crafting
pills in the courtyard.
