The King Of Warriors (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4272

After bidding their farewells, Jared, along with Dylan and the others, followed Ezequiel toward Allardland.

They were seated inside a grand carriage, pulled by eight magnificent spirit beasts known as flying tiger beasts. Each creature had enormous wings but the body of a tiger, making them a fearsome and majestic sight.

“Mr. Yorba, does Allardland really nurture so many spirit beasts?” Jared asked curiously.

It was well known that raising spirit beasts was costly and required a tremendous amount of resources. Many cultivators could barely sustain their own needs, let alone care for a spiritual beast.

Even among the larger sects, only a few people kept them due to the high maintenance costs. Yet, here in Allardland, spirit beasts were used for tasks as simple as pulling carriages. It spoke volumes about the wealth and prosperity of the land.

“It's not that many,” Ezequiel replied modestly. “But considering the vast size of Allardland, spirit beasts are required in many places. We probably have a few thousand spirit beasts by now.”

“A few thousand?” Jared was startled, and even Dylan and the others were visibly shocked. Maintaining thousands of spirit beasts was a huge burden, one that most powers in the Ethereal Realm could never afford.

Sensing Jared's surprise, Ezequiel quickly clarified, “No need to worry, Mr. Chance. Only a few dozen of them have fallen ill, not all of them.”

He had initially thought Jared might be daunted by the sheer number of spirit beasts in Allardland. After all, even if Jared had unparalleled medical skills, treating thousands of creatures would be exhausting.

“Mr. Yorba, if I may ask, what kind of ailments are these spirit beasts suffering from?” Jared asked, wanting to get a sense of the situation ahead of time.

“The symptoms are varied,” Ezequiel explained. “It's difficult for me to describe them all. You'll have to see for yourself when we arrive.”
