Not Twins

Chapter 3529

Upon arriving at Blood Spirit Valley, Jared found Dalton waiting for him at the entrance. Seeing the number of people Jared had brought with him, Dalton quickly approached and asked, “Mr. Chance, who are these people?”

“They are all from Soulless Hall. I encountered them on the way and brought them along. What are you doing here at the valley entrance?”

Jared couldn’t understand why Dalton was waiting at the entrance. It seemed like he was expecting someone. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I was waiting for you, Mr. Chance,” Dalton replied.

Dalton leaned towards Jared’s ear and whispered, “Mr. Chance, the man who sold you the timepiece has arrived, and he seems quite formidable. He insists on seeing you. He might have come to reclaim the timepiece…”

Dalton assumed that the middle-aged man was there to reclaim the timepiece, so he had been waiting at the entrance to inform Jared in advance and mentally prepare him.

Upon hearing this, Jared was immediately delighted. “Where is he now?”

“He’s inside. Mr. Daemon and my master are attending to him. He’s acting very arrogantly!” Dalton exclaimed.

Ignoring Dalton, Jared ran straight into Blood Spirit Valley.

Inside, the middle-aged man was sitting on a recliner, with Montane Daemon and Igor standing by his side.

Igor’s face showed a hint of displeasure, while Montane Daemon was utterly respectful. Upon seeing Jared’s return, both Igor and Montane Daemon hurriedly went to greet him.

“Mr. Chance, you’re back!” Igor and Montane Daemon exclaimed in unison. Upon hearing that Jared had returned, the middle-aged man immediately stood up.

Ignoring Igor and Montane Daemon, Jared walked straight up to the middle-aged man and bowed respectfully. “Mr. Whalreth, I’m truly sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.”

Jared’s words left Igor and Montane Daemon stunned, their faces full of disbelief. Even Whalreth himself was slightly taken aback. Then, he laughed and asked, “How did you recognize me?”

Jared didn’t recognize Whalreth when he bought the timepiece. However, upon meeting him now, Jared immediately recognized him, which puzzled Whalreth.

Jared flashed an awkward smile and said, “I did meet Mr. Hadad. It was he who saw the timepiece and guessed your identity.”

With a hearty laugh, Whalreth implicitly acknowledged his own identity by saying, “Hahaha! So, it’s that old fellow! I knew there was no way you could have comprehended my time magical item so quickly!”

At that moment, Igor and Montane Daemon were utterly dumbfounded. They couldn’t believe that the middle-aged man standing before them, exuding the aura of the beast race, could actually be Whalreth.

Jared, who was also puzzled, asked, “Mr. Whalreth, what’s going on? Why do I sense the aura of the beast race within you?”

“Ah, it’s a long story. When you released me from the Pentacarna Tower, my soul remnant managed to escape back to the Ethereal Realm. However, I couldn’t find a place to rest, nor could I

reconstruct a physical body. In the end, I had no choice but to inhabit the body of a beast race cultivator. If my soul were exposed for a long period of time, there’s a high chance it could scatter and dissipate. If that happens, I might truly disappear forever,” Whalreth explained.

After hearing Whalreth’s explanation, Jared finally understood. So, this body originally belonged to a beast race cultivator. No wonder it carries the scent of the beast race!

“Elder Whalreth, I can’t believe I had the audacity to raise my hand against you. Please forgive me!” Montane Daemon exclaimed as he fell to his knees before Whalreth with a thud.

At that moment, he no longer harbored any doubts about Whalreth’s identity, especially since Whalreth had just demonstrated the power of the Sacred Light Fist.

Whalreth gestured with his hand and said, “Get up. No blame attaches to the unconscious doer of wrong.”

Montane Daemon, his face flushed with excitement, stood up. His body trembled slightly from the overwhelming exhilaration.

“What did you want to see me for, Mr. Whalreth?” Jared asked, curious about the reason for Whalreth’s visit.

“Of course, I sought you out because I need your assistance,” he replied. “I have been inhabiting another person’s body, but I am unable to enhance my strength in this form. This body cannot withstand it. Therefore, I need to reconstruct my physical form. However, to do so, I require Demonia Stone. I wanted you to help me locate Demonia Stone so that I can reconstruct my physical form,” Whalreth explained.
