“There's no need for that. All you need to do is treat Jhaelyn well and love her dearly. After all, she has just become a wife.” Braxton glanced at Jhaelyn with an adoring look.
“That's right, Jared. You must be gentle. I noticed Jhaelyn limping when she was walking just now, so she must be swollen!” Thorley also chimed in.
Jhaelyn's face flushed instantly, and she turned to Thorley and said, “Thorley, I'm going to kill you...”
As she spoke, Jhaelyn threw a punch toward Thorley. Seeing that, Thorley promptly took off running.
The two were then engaged in a playful chase.
It was only at that moment that Jared discovered the way Jhaelyn addressed Thorley.
“These two have always been this playful,” Braxton said with a comforting smile.
“Father, let me bring you to a place where we can treat your injuries. I reckon it won't take more than a day for you to fully recover,” Jared said to Braxton.
“Where is that?” Braxton asked, his face full of curiosity.
“You'll know once you get there!” Jared said with a smile.
Jared, accompanied by Braxton, directly entered the Pentacarna Tower.
Braxton was taken aback when he saw the Pentacarna Tower, felt the flow of time within it, and witnessed the celestial gems.
“Jared, w-what is this?” Braxton asked in shock.
“This is the Pentacarna Tower. Inside this tower, time flows a hundred times faster than the outside world. In other words, a year outside the tower equates to a century within it.”
“A hundred years?” Braxton was immediately taken aback. “Are you saying that if I cultivate a hundred days in here, only a single day has passed in the outside world?”
Jared nodded. “That's right.”
Braxton's breathing had become ragged. No wonder Jared said I could be healed in just a day.
“Where did this Pentacarna Tower come from?” Braxton asked curiously.
Jared, however, gave a faint smile. “Father, you should focus on healing first. We can talk about it later!”
A flicker of complexity passed through Braxton's eyes, followed by a laugh. “Very well. It seems my daughter has made a good choice.”
At that moment, Braxton was thoroughly pleased with Jared.
A silent laugh echoed in Jared's heart when he heard that. This old geezer... I defeated him, but now he's trying to save face for himself.

Josephine's first time seeing Jared kill isn't with Leyton but with Falcon. Pay attention to your work....
You need to correct yourself,dear author. Josephine was in the City of Herbs when she was a kid, so why is the city's smell surprising to her?...
I need more chapters...
When can I get the next chapter...
