The Man's Decree

Chapter 1531 Neither This Nor That
Jared was stupefied. “One could really become immortal and never die?”
Fernando laughed when he saw Jared’s expression. “Commoners believe that immortals never die, but that’s nonsense.
Immortals die, too. How could they possibly live forever? It’s just that immortals can live a long time. Some can even live for tens
of thousands of years. I’ve never heard about anyone that has lived since the beginning of time. Frankly, I’ve never met an
immortal. I’ve only heard my ancestors talk about them.”
Fernando’s eyes were filled with anticipation when he said that. It seemed like he was fascinated by the possibility of becoming
an immortal.
Meanwhile, Jared was still amazed by what he had just heard. If not for Fernando, Jared would’ve never known the secrets of
the heavenly realm.
“Mr. Gunderson, what about those evil spirits in the Warriors Alliance? Those four Black Copper Robe warriors who were fighting
me were all possessed by evil spirits.” Jared was puzzled. Why are there so many people in the martial arts world possessed by
evil spirits all of a sudden?
“Those evil spirits are remnants of perished demons. I heard that there was a war between the gods and the demons back then.
The demons were almost wiped out. That being said, some of their spirits are still all over the place until this day! These evil
spirits are suddenly possessing humans because they want to rise from the ashes. Soon, I think the entire martial arts world is
going to collapse, and a new order will rise...” Fernando’s expression turned grim as he spoke.
Jared also fell into deep thought when he heard that. Sometimes, I feel like I’m living in a trap, and someone is always
influencing my every move. Every time I make a move, it’s as if someone planned for it.
Just then, Astrid knocked on the door and barged in.
After she entered, however, Jared and Fernando were nowhere in sight. That was because the men were in another dimension,
so she couldn’t see them.
“Dad?” Astrid called out.
Upon hearing that, Fernando waved, and the two of them suddenly appeared before Astrid’s eyes.

Astrid wasn’t at all surprised because she was used to it.
“What’s the matter, Astrid?” Fernando asked.
“Dad, the Warriors Alliance has sent out a lot of people to block all the roads in Jadeborough. Furthermore, I saw quite a lot of
strangers roaming around outside the Gunderson residence. I think they’re from the Warriors Alliance. It seems like they know
Jared is still in Jadeborough, and they want to stop him from leaving,” Astrid answered.
“Don’t worry about it. They wouldn’t dare to storm the Gunderson residence. Jared is safe here.” Fernando was full of
confidence.
However, Jared was frowning because he knew he couldn’t possibly stay in the Gunderson residence forever. His priority was to
rescue his mother and Josephine. Be that as it may, he couldn’t help feeling helpless after listening to what Fernando had just
told him. With my current strength, I can’t do anything in the heavenly realm. Heck, I already feel so defeated after taking a few
hits in the martial arts world! The men the Warriors Alliance sends out every time are mostly stronger than me! This time around,
I almost died in the martial arts arena thanks to those four Black Copper Robe warriors they sent. If this goes on, how will I ever
be able to rescue my mother and Josephine?
“I can’t stay in the Gunderson residence forever, Mr. Gunderson. There are still things I need to do. I’ll repay your kindness in the
future,” Jared uttered in a grateful tone.
