Xyla Quest subconsciously glanced at the surveillance screen first.Indeed, it was Ron Batton who stood outside the door. He was wearing a set of white martial arts outfits with a walking stick in his hand.The handle part of the walking stick was made of a huge, white jade ball. It seemed low-profile but yet had a tinge of luxury to it.Xyla quickly opened the door and passed Ron a pair of slippers. “Grandpa, these slippers are for you.”“Thank you, Xyla…” Ron said gently before looking affectionately at Xyla and changing into the slippers.Once he was done, he casually closed the door behind him and resumed a somber expression on his face. “Where’s that Soul Devouring Potion you spoke of?”“Here…” Xyla naturally held Ron’s arm and led him over to a seat in front of the living room’s coffee table.As soon as they sat down, Xyla eagerly handed over the bottle she had checked out earlier to Ron.Stanley Batton didn’t say anything. Instead, with a grave expression on his face, he

“It looks like… They have always been the same. Anyway, they just treated me unusually badly,” Xyla Quest said.“I think it’s unlikely that the person controlled them at an early stage… Perhaps, some time down the road, they fell under this person’s control. Otherwise, Xyla wouldn’t have been able to stay alive until now.“But I still don’t get it. This person feels to me like a very powerful person. It should be very easy for him to take your life. Why did he go around in circles like this? Wouldn’t it be easier if he simply hypnotized you and made you commit suicide?” Ron Batton began to voice his concerns.The things Stanley Batton and Ron said were also what Xyla wanted to say.Endless question marks circled the three of their heads. All three of them felt very confused.There were many issues from a logical standpoint.“I’m afraid we’ll only be able to understand what exactly is going on after we find that person. The problem is that he is in the dark while we are in the lig

“Tonight, we can quietly move their corpses to another place while nobody else is around. We’ll replace their corpses with two other corpses. Those corpses will be cremated in their place tomorrow morning.“After that, we’ll secretly conduct autopsies on their bodies to find out the real cause of their deaths,” Xyla Quest said.She believed there would definitely be traces of what was done before.They would leave no stone unturned.“Hmm,” Stanley Batton murmured.“Oh, right. I also found these things in Emily’s room. Have a look. These are all weird symbols. Do you recognize them?” Xyla said before retrieving some of the Post-it notes with weird symbols written on them from the luggage next to her. She then handed the Post-it notes over to Ron Batton.After seeing the contents of the Post-it notes, Ron and Stanley both looked confused.Neither of them recognized what those symbols were.“I don’t recognize it… This looks like a kind of script. It looks like an ancient form of t

Ron Batton didn’t say anything. Instead, he continued to frown deeply. “It’s probably the Black Poison…”“Black Poison?” Xyla Quest had never heard about any such poison. Now, she felt increasingly curious.“Yeah. This kind of poison also originated from Sorax. It’s made using over ten thousand types of poisons. A single dosage the size of a sesame seed would be enough to turn someone into this…” Ron said.“Like the Soul Devouring Potion, this kind of poison should have eventually disappeared following his death…” Ron added.Both types of poisons pointed them to Sorax.Xyla felt that this ‘master’ must have been related to Sorax somehow.After all, these two types of poison were both rare poisons of this world.If this person wasn’t related to Sorax, it must not have been easy to acquire such poisons…“Master, honey, do you think this ‘master’ might be related to Sorax? Otherwise, how did he come to possess these strange poisons that should have disappeared following Sorax’s de

“Who would’ve thought of finding a hidden weapon in your sister’s room?” Ron Batton tried to comfort Xyla Quest. Guilt filled Xyla’s heart no matter what Ron said. After all, the female servant was not only her servant but her family too. Xyla lightly nodded before lifting her head to meet Ron and Stanley Batton’s eyes. “I heard that she’s from a low-income family. Her family has been renting a small apartment as they cannot afford to buy a house. I’m going to find a house for them in Atlantis and give them five million dollars…”By doing so, her family did not have to suffer from financial problems anymore. Though Xyla understood that money could never make up for the pain of losing a family member, she would do everything to help her family to get through this misery.“Okay. We have many houses in Atlantis. You can pick one for her family,” Ron offered. He agreed with Xyla. It was a thoughtful idea. His fondness for her was doubled at that instant. “It’s okay. I have

She felt safe whenever she was with him. In fact, she was not that worried about her safety. Her life might be in danger, but she had him. She was not afraid of anything when he was around. “The upright need not fear the crooked. Trust me. We’ll get through this.” Xyla Quest looked as determined as ever. “Yeah.” Stanley hugged her tightly again. Ron was pleased to look at the intimacy between the lovely couple. However, it did not ease his worries. He feared that something terrible was going to happen to Xyla. He was on tenterhooks because he cared about her. Xyla got along well with everyone in the Batton family. She was the apple of their eyes. They could not bear losing her. “Alright. I’ll go find Dad first.” Xyla pushed Stanley away and admonished him, “Take care of Grandpa.”“I will.” Stanley smiled and gently stroked her hair. ***Xyla headed straight to parlor No.1 once she reached the funeral home.She was surprised to find that all her family and frien

The truth would be revealed one day. Those who were on the dark side would have to pay for their misdeeds. What went around came around. It was only a matter of time. Jeremy Quest nodded in agreement. “You definitely will.”Jeremy could not take it anymore. It all happened so suddenly. He was heartbroken enough to find out that her daughter committed suicide, whereas his wife died of a cerebral hemorrhage.Never in his life had he imagined that they were murdered. Who the hell was this ‘master’? Jeremy’s utter bewilderment was reflected in his eyes. He was appalled when he recalled everything that had happened on Xyla Quest before. He was so close to losing his favorite and most outstanding daughter. “Xyla, I’m so grateful that you’re alive and well. I thank god for taking care of you. I really am scared when I think about it.” Jeremy patted Xyla’s hands, mixed feelings churning inside of him. Xyla was touched hearing that. She slid her fingers between Jeremy’s

The fake bodies they found replaced Emily Quest and May Conner’s corpses to be cremated at eight o’clock the following day. At noon, countless guests had arrived at the funeral home to watch the burial ceremony. Tears and silent anguish accompanied the substitutes’ ashes into the grave. After the burial, the crowd placed bouquets around the graves and started a prayer with Jeremy Quest taking the lead. The funeral ceremony officially ended a few minutes later. Jeremy, Xyla Quest, and Stanley Batton took the guests to a fancy hotel downtown for lunch. They finished the meal at around third o’clock in the afternoon. After sending off the guests, Xyla and Stanley drove Jeremy back to the Quest family’s house. Jeremy drowned in raw agony and sorrow even after he went home. His face was as pale as chalk. Xyla and Stanley carefully helped him to the couch in the living room. Jeremy could not stop sighing as he sank onto the couch. He grabbed the cigarette box on the coffee
