Female Novel
Chapter 1000
“See that? Mr. Sanders is treating this matter very seriously. If Jared gets murdered now, don't you
think you'll be the prime suspect?” Zion asked.
“D*mn it! Jared is too cunning! I can't believe he approached Mr. Sanders. Well, I don't believe he can
depend on Mr. Sanders forever,” Warren said through gritted teeth.
“All right, go get some rest for now. We'll have plenty of chances to deal with Jared in the future,” Zion
said, dismissing Warren.
After Warren left, Zion headed toward
the backyard of the Warriors Alliance. The backyard was huge, and there was even a man-made
fountain in the middle of it.
Zion walked toward the man-made fountain and tapped three times on a rock. Immediately, the water
stopped flowing, and a moment later, a stone door opened behind the fountain.
After he walked inside, the stone wall closed and water started streaming out of the fountain again. It
was so well-concealed that no one could tell that there was a secret passageway behind it.
After making his way across a dark and narrow tunnel, Zion arrived at a spacious compound containing
numerous rooms. Every room was barricaded with steel chains that were as thick as a man's arm. Blue
lights were seen flashing continuously between the links of the chains, accompanied by buzzing
sounds.
The place was a dungeon where the Warriors Alliance imprisoned Demonic Cultivators and martial
artists who had committed heinous crimes. As for the blue lights, they were an arcane array used to
trap those captives there.
“Let me out! Let me out!” someone shouted the moment Zion stepped into the dungeon, crying to be
released.
There were others who prostrated themselves on the ground, begging Zion to let them go.
Dressed in tattered clothes, the captives were disheveled and appeared to be terribly tortured.
However, without even casting them a glance, Zion ignored their desperate pleas and headed straight
toward the end of the dungeon.
At the innermost part of the dungeon was a room that was exceptionally poorly lit, and only a silhouette
could be seen sitting in the middle of the room.
“What's the matter?” the person asked slowly, detecting Zion's arrival.
“Thousands of Miles Away has appeared!” Zion replied.
At the mention of the painting, the figure moved.
“Get me the painting at once!” the man ordered in a commanding voice.
“Understood!” Zion, the president of Jadeborough's Warriors Alliance, answered respectfully and left
after that.
The next morning, when Jared, Josephine, and Lizbeth woke up, they realized that the sun was alreadynovelbin
up.
Someone from the Department of Justice was pacing back and forth outside Jared's room and
appeared to be waiting for the man anxiously.
Jared opened the door at once and asked, “What's the matter?”
“Mr. Chance, General Jackson is looking for you. But I did not dare to disturb you as you were still
sleeping...” the member of the Department of Justice said.
“Oh, all right. I'll head over right away,” Jared replied.
Just then, Josephine and Lizbeth walked out of the room while stretching lazily.
“Last night was too amazing. I can't wait to experience it again tonight,” Josephine said with a yawn.
“That's right! I haven't felt so good in a long time,” Lizbeth agreed, nodding.
When the man from the Department of Justice heard the conversation between the two women, he
grinned playfully as he looked at Jared and said, “Mr. Chance, I didn't know that you have such good
stamina! You still seem so energetic even after battling two opponents all by yourself.”
“Battling two opponents? What do you mean?” Jared asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
“Mr. Chance, you don't have to pretend. Do you know that you are the envy of all of us at the
Department of Justice? Even General Jackson is jealous of you.”
After saying that, the member of the Department of Justice gave Jared a meaningful glance before
walking away.
