Chapter 2851
“I want one.” Cloud spoke first. He was there to buy the treasure map, so he didn’t waste any time.
Quickly, Cloud handed over one hundred million spirit coins, and in return, Vasker presented him with adelicately crafted wooden box.
Despite being fined one hundred million spirit coins earlier, Cloud had no trouble producing anotherhundred million. This display of wealth was a testament to the resources of Stellaris Sect.
“I’ll take one too…”
“Count me in…”
One after another, those who had come to purchase the treasure map paid their coins. However, eachof them received only a wooden box. No one openly checked the contents to see if these boxes reallycontained a treasure map, showing that they trusted Vasker.
After obtaining the treasure map and before leaving, Cloud threatened Jared, “Kid, just you wait! You’llget it!”
The others followed suit. As Beau departed, he glanced at Jared and said, “Jared, I’m leaving you acommunication device. If you need help, don’t hesitate to contact me.”
Once everyone else left, only Jared’s group remained in the living hall. Vasker turned his attention toJared and asked, “Are you interested? If not, feel free to leave.”
“I want one, of course,” Jared replied. He handed over one hundred million spirit coins to Vasker. Inreturn, he received a wooden box just like the others.
Jared, however, didn’t hesitate to open the box. Inside was a parchment scroll, on which there was amap, and a detailed map route was marked out. Only the part where the exact location of the treasure
was marked was missing. The clarity of the route indicated that Vasker had freshly reprinted it.
“Is this treasure map genuine?” Jared asked while holding the map. “As I said, if you don’t believe it,you can refrain from purchasing it. I can refund your money right now,” Vasker said.
“No need. I was just asking casually,” Jared said and kept the treasure map. “As a member of theArchaic Body Cultivation clan, why would you sell your ancestors’ treasure map? It’s your clan’streasure.”
“Since you’ve obtained the map, you can leave. I won’t answer your questions,” Vasker replied andturned to leave. Jared suddenly stood up and grabbed Vasker’s shoulder.
Vasker was taken aback. “What do you think you’re doing? This is Jipsdale. If you dare make a moveon me, you might find it hard to escape the consequences.”
“I won’t lay a finger on you. I just want to ask why you are selling the treasure map. Where did thistreasure map come from?”novelbin
“I told you I won’t answer your questions. Let go of me immediately, or I’ll call the guards!” Vaskerthreatened Jared.
“Do you think I’m afraid of the guards?” Jared sneered and reached for Vasker’s mask. Shocked,Vasker tried to block Jared’s hand, but he was no match for Jared’s speed. In an instant, Vasker’s maskwas removed.
Seeing Vasker’s face after he was unmasked, Jared was stunned as the man bore a strikingresemblance to Vasily, with only slight differences in their features.
“If you don’t want the treasure map, I can refund your money. Why did you remove my mask?” Vaskerquickly snatched his mask and put it back on.
“How are you related to Vasily?” Jared asked. Upon hearing the name Vasily, Vasker visibly. trembled,but he quickly composed himself and said, “What are you talking about? I don’t know anyone namedVasily.”
“Don’t lie to me. You and Vasily look almost identical. You’re saying you don’t know him?” Jared’sexpression grew serious, and he once again grabbed Vasker’s shoulder. “Tell me, how did you get thistreasure map, and why are you selling it?”
