Chapter 1876 Their Plan

“That may be fate, and no one can change it. The will of the heavens cannot be thwarted.” In truth,Jessica did not wish for the situation to come to that either. The day it did would only mean misery,suffering, and endless fighting. novelbin

“By the way, Ms. Zimmerman, Demon Sect shares the same origin as Evil Heart Sect, the sect behindWarriors Alliance. So why are they allowed to roam freely on this earth and are not subjected to thesame restrictions?” Jared asked curiously. I always thought that the laws of nature only applied tospiritual energy cultivators but not demonic energy cultivators. From the looks of it, however, it seemsthat Demon Sect also has to abide by the same restrictions. That means my assumption was incorrect.

“The same restrictions apply to Evil Heart Sect. Why else do you think they haven't sent a skilled fighterto kill you after how you provoked Warriors Alliance? Warriors Alliance is nothing more than Evil HeartSect's representative in the mundane world. Its members are merely people possessed by spirits, andthe laws of nature don't govern spirits without their real bodies. Evil Heart Sect used that loophole tomake its members commit suicide, then made their spirits enter the mundane world. However, there's afatal flaw to that method—the strength of those possessed by the spirits will be greatly diminished.Also, not everyone is suitable to be a host, and selecting a host isn't all that simple. Evil Heart Sect hasgone all out to lay out their plans in the mundane world before the spiritual energy recovery. However,their practice of attaining what's effectively a pyrrhic victory is too cruel,” she replied.

Jared looked shocked as he listened to her detailed explanation. It never crossed his mind that EvilHeart Sect would go so far as to make their members take their own lives just because they wanted tocreate spirits. Suddenly, he recalled what happened when he was in Demon Sect's secret realm. Iwasn't stopped by the mysterious force when I split my spirit from my body to pass through the chaos

dimension, so it seems that force is the power of the laws of nature.

Very quickly, another question popped into his head. Jessica doesn't hold a high position within DemonSect, so why does she know so much? The recovery of spiritual energy and Evil Heart Sect's plansshould be considered confidential information. How did she learn about all that?

Puzzled, he asked, “If you don't mind me asking, how did you come to know so much?”

His question jolted Jessica into the realization that she had said too much. Logically speaking,someone in my position shouldn't be privy to that much information. However, since he's alreadygetting suspicious, I can't hide anything from him anymore.

“Mr. Chance, I think of you as a friend. That's why I've unknowingly been so open with you. You can'tlet my sect leader know what I've told you, okay?” she responded, gazing at him with an imploring look.

He nodded. “Not to worry, Ms. Zimmerman. You think of me as a friend, so how could I betray afriend?”

Jessica hesitated for a moment. Then, she finally said, “Because you asked, I'll tell you. I know all thatbecause I heard about them from Mr. Sullivan. It seems he knows quite a bit about Evil Heart Sect andshared many things with me. Don't tell anyone about this. If the sect leader finds out, he'll surely punishMr. Sullivan.”

“Don't worry. My lips are sealed,” Jared promised. Nonetheless, he could not help feeling puzzled. Whydid Patrick tell her all of this? Even if the two are in a relationship, there's no need to touch on thesematters. After all, in the current environment, the more one knows, the more dangerous that could be. IfPatrick cared about her safety, he wouldn't have told her these things.

“Ms. Zimmerman, I'm still a little confused. Why did Mr. Sullivan tell you all these? After all, it won't doyou any good to be aware of these matters, right?” Jared asked.
