Chapter 2607 Base
Standing before a towering mountain peak, Jared looked up at the massive sect in front of him, lost inthought. I've always thought a not particularly large-scale sect like Emerald Cauldron Sect would havean ordinary base. Unexpectedly, this place is so magnificent and grand!
The enormous plaque atop the entrance wrote the words “Emerald Cauldron Sect,” and varioussculptures were set on both sides of the gates.
Dozens of disciples from Emerald Cauldron Sect were stationed to guard the gates on either side. Theylooked solemn and intimidating.
“Mr. Chance, this is our base. Isn't it spectacular? Emerald Cauldron Sect's previous base wasn't asluxurious and imposing, but since my master became the leader of Emerald Cauldron Sect, the basewas relocated and rebuilt.” Sigurd appeared exceptionally proud as he talked about the base.
Jared nodded. “I genuinely didn't expect a tiny Emerald Cauldron Sect to have such a grand andimpressive base.”novelbin
After saying that, he noticed that not far from one side of Emerald Cauldron Sect's base, there was adilapidated house. Surprisingly, many people were lining up in front of it, and it was evident thatsomeone occupied the place.
That piqued Jared's interest. Usually, no outsiders were allowed to live within a thirty miles radius of asect's base. However, someone was staying right next to Emerald Cauldron Sect's base. That was avery unusual phenomenon.
“What's the deal with that house?” Jared asked curiously.
Sigurd glanced over and said, “That residence was Emerald Cauldron Sect's old base. After we movedhere, that place was abandoned. Only Mr. Ghaylen Samoll and his few disciples still live there. Mr.Samoll is a conservative person who looks down on my master's ways, so he still resides in the oldbase and even treats the local villagers nearby. Do you see those people queuing in a line? They arehere to seek medical treatment from Mr. Samoll. I really don't understand him. He can't earn anymoney or resources by treating the villagers. It's just a waste of time.”
Sigurd was baffled by Ghaylen's actions. However, after Jared listened to Sigurd's speech, he becamevery interested in Ghaylen.
As an alchemist, treating and saving people should always take precedence, but Sigurd's master hadused his medical skills to amass wealth and flaunt his influence. Someone like him hardly deserved tobe called an alchemist.
Jared turned to walk toward Emerald Cauldron Sect's old base as he wished to meet Ghaylen.
“Mr. Chance, what are you doing?” Sigurd asked in puzzlement while hastily catching up with Jared.
“What's the deal with that house?” Jared asked curiously.
“I want to meet Mr. Samoll first,” Jared replied.
Sigurd had no choice but to follow Jared.
As soon as Jared reached the run-down building, someone stopped him.
“Who are you?” a young man dressed in a coverall full of mended patches asked.
Sigurd rushed forward and said to the young man, “He's a guest of Emerald Cauldron Sect, here to seeMr. Samoll.”
When the young man saw Sigurd, he instantly grimaced and snorted in displeasure. “Master is treatingpatients. He has no time to meet you. You should leave.”
“I'm not a guest. I'm a patient. I'm here to seek medical treatment,” Jared piped up.
The young man sized Jared up. “My master doesn't treat people like you. Leave at once. Otherwise,don't blame me for being unmerciful.”
He was even ready to drive Jared away by force.
“How dare you behave so audaciously in front of me? I'm the principal disciple of Emerald CauldronSect, after all!” Sigurd roared at that young man in fury.
“Hmph! Sigurd, your status as the principal disciple of the sect doesn't carry any weight here. None ofus here acknowledges you as our senior. You'd better leave now or you'll feel my wrath too!” the youngman scoffed, showing no regard for Sigurd at all.
