Chapter 709 The Return To Mapleton
Jared was more concerned that Poison King wouldn’t use poison on him. He wished that Poison King
would let loose all the poisonous creatures on him. That way, Jared could absorb all their toxic energy
into his body and use Focus Technique to convert them into spiritual energy. Then, he could use the
spiritual energy to raise his capabilities.
“Jared, are you crazy?” Melanie looked at Jared in disbelief.
Only Rayleigh understood Jared’s intention. He smiled and said, “It’s good for Jared to go to Mapleton
and deal with the matters there. That would prevent future troubles.”
Since Rayleigh agreed with Jared, no one dared to say anything else.
Lyanna looked at Jared and warned, “Jared, things are not as simple as you think. You should think it
over.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJared replied firmly, “I don’t need to think it over. If I don’t go with you, you know what kind of punishment
you will have to face in Mapleton. Don’t try to convince me that Poison King would be forgiving. I won’t
believe it.”
Lyanna did not expect Jared to be concerned about her or willing to face danger for her. Therefore, she
hesitated before saying, “I need to tell you something. Godfather wanted me to bring you back alive to
turn you into a cadaver king. To form a cadaver king, one needs to send a living person into a room full of
poisonous creatures and let those creatures bite him. Furthermore, the person would have to be shut
there for seven days. If he survived after seven days, he would become cadaver king. So far, no one had
succeeded yet.”
Everyone was shocked to hear Lyanna’s revelation. They did not expect Poison King to do something
that cruel and use humans for such experiments.
“Jared, you can’t go. Please don’t go…” Josephine held onto Jared’s arm and refused to let go. She
could not let Jared face such danger.
On the other hand, Jared became even more excited upon hearing Lyanna’s explanation. Initially, he
planned to go to Mapleton to find poisonous creatures. Since Poison King wanted to turn Jared into a
cadaver king, that was more than Jared could ask. He could not wait to absorb all the poison from those
poisonous creatures. That way, he might even progress to a new rank.
“Don’t worry. I will be fine!” Jared comforted Josephine before turning to Lyanna. “Let’s go now. I just
can’t wait any longer.”
Lyanna was perplexed to see how enthusiastic Jared was. Initially, she thought he would be afraid and
became hesitant upon hearing her revelation. She did not expect to find him excited instead.
“Let me inform Godfather first,” Lynna replied.
Seeing how determined Jared was, Lyanna had no choice but to go out of the mansion and contact
Poison King.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon, Lyanna came in again and said, “I have informed Godfather. We can leave now.”
Jared nodded and followed Lyanna out of the mansion. Josephine and Lizbeth looked at Jared worriedly.
Lyanna saw how worried they were and said solemnly, “I will do my best to ensure his safety…”
Even Lyanna was surprised with herself for saying that. She did not realize that she had developed
feelings for Jared and his friends. It probably had something to do with her relationship with Melanie.
Then, Jared and Lyanna headed to the airport and took a flight southwest before traveling to Mapleton.
Meanwhile, Rayleigh did not linger in Horington. He brought Josephine and the other ladies on a ship to
the sea. Although Josephine and Lizbeth did not know where he would take them, they did not ask but
followed him obediently.
Jared sat beside Lyanna on their flight. He held Lyanna’s arm and leaned close to her. Lyanna appeared
indifferent to his touch. She did not push him away but let him cling to her.
Many other passengers witnessed this and sent Jared judgmental looks. Does he have no shame
leaning against a woman like that? Usually, it is the woman who clings to a man.
