A Man Like None Other

“Spiritual energy pool?”

Jared frowned, feeling a sudden sense of unease.

“What’s wrong?” Dario asked, noticing Jared’s expression.

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Jared quickly shook his head. However, as he looked at the familiar buildings and felt the increasingly dense spiritual energy, he began to feel more and more uneasy.

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Jared prayed inwardly, hoping that this Juliet wasn’t the girl he had seen naked last night. Soon, Dario led Jared and Judd to Juliet’s courtyard. Looking at the courtyard, Jared was speechless.

“Master, is this really Juliet’s courtyard?” Jared asked.

“Yes. Only Juliet’s courtyard has a spiritual energy pool in the entire Violet Flame Sect,” Dario confirmed with a nod.

“Uh…” Jared was stunned and didn’t know what to do.

How am I supposed to explain to Juliet that I had bathed in her courtyard in the middle of the night and seen her naked? Why wasn’t there any guard? And why was the door open?

As Jared was lost in thought, the courtyard door opened. Two identical female cultivators stepped out.

“Ladies, we have an appointment with Ms. Juliet to see her today,” Dario spoke politely to the guards of Juliet’s courtyard.

“Ah, Mr. Barclay, please come in. Juliet has been waiting for a while.”

The two of them promptly ushered Dario and his party inside.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Looking at the arrangement of the courtyard and the spiritual energy pool, Jared felt even more nervous.

“Axel, prepare yourself. Juliet is very beautiful. Many male cultivators get nosebleeds the first time they see her,” Judd warned Jared.

“Really? Nosebleeds?”

Jared felt it was exaggerated.

He had seen Juliet naked last night. Although he had felt excited and a bit restless, it hadn’t made him have a nosebleed!

“Just wait and see. When you see her, you’ll know what a fairy looks like,” Judd said, rubbing his hands in excitement.

Jared smiled faintly. If he told Judd that he had seen Juliet naked, he wondered what Judd’s reaction would be!

Jared followed Dario with his head down.

After they entered a room, the two guards thoughtfully closed the door. Juliet was seen seated on a chair, clad in a white dress. Her skin was as smooth and fair.

Seeing Dario, Juliet hurriedly stood up and greeted, “Greetings, Mr. Barclay.”

“Ms. Juliet, you must not do this. You’re embarrassing me,” Dario said hastily.

“Mr. Barclay, my father has retired and is no longer the sect leader, so you don’t need to stand on formality. Just call me Juliet,” she said.

“I will always be loyal to Mr. Ortiz, whether he is the sect leader of the Violet Flame Sect or not,” Dario said seriously.

Juliet was very moved. She agreed to meet Dario because of his unwavering loyalty.

“Mr. Barclay, who are the two people behind you?” Juliet looked at Jared and Judd.

Jared kept his head down, so she didn’t get to see his face.

“This is my eldest disciple, Judd Davies. He is now a deacon,” Dario said, pointing to Judd.

“Greetings, Juliet!”

Judd stepped forward quickly. Seeing Juliet’s stunning beauty, Judd became flustered and didn’t know where to look.

As he spoke, his nose suddenly started bleeding!

Juliet covered her mouth and laughed at Judd’s reaction.
