The Man’s Decree – Chapter 6258

"No." Jared shook his head. "I'm going alone."

Lydia's brow pulled even tighter. "Why?"

Jared held her gaze. "The Celestial Palace has always stayed hidden from the world. That means they don't want to be disturbed. If I bring too many people, it'll be easy for them to take it the wrong way. If they think I brought help to provoke them, they probably won't even let me through the door."

He paused, then gave a crooked smile. "Besides, word that the Celestial Basilica was destroyed is going to reach the Celestial Palace sooner or later. If they find out I'm one of the people who wiped out the Celestial Basilica, they'll already be on guard against me... If I show up with a huge group behind me on top of that, of course they'll think I came to wipe them out too."

Hearing Jared's explanation, Lydia went quiet. She understood what Jared meant. The Celestial Palace was not the same as the Celestial Basilica.
