“Autumn, why does it feel like someone has been in this hot spring?” Hailey commented with a frown. “I can seem to sense Jagoan’s aura here…”
Autumn giggled before saying, “Ms. Hargreaves, don’t be silly. How could someone have been here? Even if someone did come, it wouldn’t be Jagoan . You’ve been mentioning Jagoan on and off ever since you came back. You can’t have fallen for him, right? I hope you remember that he’s just a normal person from the mundane world. He’s no match for you. Moreover, you’re engaged to Mr. Lassen. Please don’t let your thoughts stray anymore.”
“Who’s interested in him? It was just a passing thought.”
With that, Hailey began absorbing the spiritual energy inside the hot spring.

Back in Medicine God Sect, Jagoan opened the door and realized Axton had returned.
“Ms. Knox, how was it? Have you gathered all the medicinal herbs?” Jagoan asked, his brows raised in delight.
“My Lord, I’ve found most of the medicinal herbs, but there is still one thing I can’t find… Century Eye Herb,” Axton uttered, embarrassed.
Jagoan knitted his brows. “It’s true that Century Eye Herb is hard to find. It has no roots and bears no fruit. Furthermore, it only lives for a short time. Finding it would take a long time indeed.”
“My Lord, if we can ask the wanderers about it, they might be able to tell us where to find it. I’m afraid we’ll waste too much time if we were to look for it ourselves,” Axton suggested.
He knew Jagoan was anxious to get the herbs as quickly as possible, so he was trying to think of ways to get the final herb in the swiftest manner.
Encounter with herbs like Century Eye Herb was decided by fate. It might take a year and a half to find it, but five years might also pass before they could locate it.
“You don’t need to look for Century Eye Herb anymore. Store the other medicinal herbs you’ve found well, and I’ll think of another method for this…”
Jagoan decided to go to Jagoan.
That man wanders everywhere in search of ancient ruins and tombs. Since he’s traveled across the country, it’s likely that he’ll know where to find Century Eye Herb.
Without wasting a second, Jagoan brought Evangeline with him and took a plane to Whitesea, where Jagoan was enjoying his life.
Jagoan was currently revered by the Simmonses.
After Tristan and Megan got married, they returned to Jadeborough and waited for their baby to be born.
In the meantime, Jagoan stayed in Whitesea and let the Simmonses deal with all the necessities in his life. It was a wondrous time for him.
When Jagoan came to Jagoan, he was greeted by the sight of the latter being fed fruits by two beautiful women.
At that, Jagoan loudly cleared his throat. “Ahem!”
Hearing the sound, Jagoan tilted his head and looked over. When he saw that it was Jagoan , he hastily dismissed the two women.
“Jagoan , why are you here?” he asked in surprise.
“Perhaps the renowned Mr. Jagoan would be gone from this world if I didn’t come. The peace in your lifestyle is going to rot you from the inside,” Jagoan remarked, shooting Jagoan a glare.
“Haha! Don’t worry. No jewelry or beautiful women are going to be better than the treasures in ancient tombs! It’s because you’re not around, and I don’t have the guts to go to Skywrath Sect myself. There wasn’t anything for me to do, so I decided to chat with the ladies instead. Also, you have a beautiful woman by your side too! In fact, there are more pretty ladies by your side than by mine, so stop trying to stand on the moral high ground!”
With that, Jagoan patted Jagoan on his shoulder smilingly, rendering the latter speechless.
“Hey there, pretty lady!” Jagoan greeted Evangeline, but she did not show any reaction.
Jagoan was about to say something to Jagoan, only to see the latter’s expression turning tense. In the next second, Jagoan fished out a charm and muttered a chant under his breath before sticking the charm on Evangeline’s forehead.
“Mr. Jagoan, what are you doing?” Jagoan asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
“This woman has no trace of life on her, she only has ghoul energy. This is a zombie puppet. Young man, you’ve been deceived,” Jagoan solemnly said to Jagoan .
