The security guard nodded at her blankly.Baby Zetty opened the medicine cabinet drawer and grabbed a handful of medicinal materials. It seemed like they were still fresh.Baby Zetty sneered again and said, “It seems that even though your Poison Doctor has exhausted her talents, her ambitions are not quite dead. She still has unrealistic dreams.”The young security guard nodded blankly once more.However, for some reason, the look on the security guard’s face suddenly turned gloomy.He looked into Baby Zetty’s eyes all of a sudden, his gaze seemingly suppressing a gleam of expectations. A moment later, he drooped his head again and sighed sadly.Baby Zetty glanced at him. “Do you have something to ask me?”The young security guard looked around before whispering to her, “Are you truly Boye’s descendant?”Baby Zetty nodded.“Then have you heard of using a living person as a guiding drug?”Baby Zetty was immensely stunned.Although ancient prescriptions had mentioned using the
“Who are you?” Baby Zetty asked in surprise.All of Baby Zetty’s knowledge regarding the poison sect came from Mr. Boye’s stories. However, Mr. Boye’s understanding of the poison sect had also only been passed from what her mother told her.These sorts of stories that were passed down through generations were somewhat lacking credibility. One of the things Baby Zetty had heard was that there was a living fossil among the poison sect. It was rumored that he was more than a hundred years old and was actually Mr. Boye’s great-grandfather. His intentions were sinister, and his art of healing followed the path of evil. He was innately intelligent and was Sacred Land’s child prodigy.Baby Zetty felt that the old man in front of her was the living fossil. However, Mr. Boye had never mentioned anything about this person being an old pervert. The old man vulgarly said to Baby Zetty, “I have a way to make you young again. But you’ll have to promise me something in return.”Baby Zetty adm
Baby Zetty shrugged at him. “Then lend me your laboratory. I’ll prove it to you.”The old man thought for a while and nodded at the man with a goatee next to him. “Order the men to prepare the laboratory. Oh, and find more people to help her.”Baby Zetty saw through his scheming thoughts. He wanted to place some capable people beside her so that they could secretly learn her skills. Baby Zetty immediately refused. “I don’t need an assistant.”The old man added, “I’ll give you three months. If the experiment is a success after three months, I’ll let Sir Ares and his group go. But if the experiment fails, that'll be the day of their deaths.”Baby Zetty replied, “You have to guarantee the safety of all of them. If they’re harmed in any way on the day I leave, I’ll back out on our agreement.”The old man pondered for a while. Jay and the others were hostages anyway. They would not be able to escape his grasps. Hence, he said, “Fine.”Just like that, Baby Zetty was imprisoned by the m
“You don’t deserve to know what relationship I have with her,” said Jay coldly.A wicked sneer flashed across the old man’s eyes. “Interesting. So there are still people in this world who don’t take me seriously.”Jay sneered and said, “Who do you think you are? At best, you’re a person trapped in Sacred Land. You’re only able to see the little patch of sky above you. Hence, you believe yourself to be infallible.”Jay hated the man in front of him because he was wise and farsighted enough to see the cruelty and inhumanity on the man’s evil face. He could guess that the tragedies that had befallen Boye and Baby Zetty were all because of him.He wanted to slaughter the man in front of him, but he could not. His body was filled with poison and he was extremely weak.The old man was not resentful over it. Rather, he started smiling sinisterly and said, “You have quite the courageous spirit, but I wonder how long will that last?”Jay looked at him provocatively, his eyes defying both
Nephele commanded coldly, “Men, take him to the backyard.”Nephele had bitten her tongue off once and the ‘living fossil’ stitched it back with a dog’s tongue using his superb technique. Nephele could speak now, but her speech was somewhat unclear, which severely impacted those who were listening to her.Several of her subordinates immediately carried Jay up and dragged him out.The backyard looked extremely confined as impenetrable high walls surrounded the area. There was only a small door to communicate with the outside world. After Jay was thrown into the backyard, those men immediately left.With the small door closed, the backyard became extremely dark.Jay curled up on the ground, looking at this well-structured backyard. The high walls and the dome were made of transparent materials that even houseflies would find this place impossible to escape.Perhaps it was due to the poison in his body, but he gradually grew weaker. For the first time in his life, Jay felt helpless a
However, they clearly remembered that when Baby Zetty came here, she had been an old grandmother with gray hair and a hunched back.Just like that, both of them started believing in Baby Zetty’s medical skills.Jake painfully sought Baby Zetty for confirmation as he said, “Ms. Rozette, there was a plague a few years ago in Sacred Land. Everyone who got the plague had tons of bloody holes in their bodies, and they said that their wounds were rat bites. None of the people who got the plague survived.”When Jake said this, his eyes were filled with indignation. “But I secretly checked on the people who got the plague back then and found that their bodies all have a similar bloodied hole on the back of their heads. So I suspect that the event was not a natural disaster but something caused by humans.”When Baby Zetty heard this, her eyes were overwhelmed with sympathy. It turned out the people of Sacred Land had mistaken the Poison Old Man’s live specimen experiment as a plague.She
Baby Zetty hesitated slightly. She had always considered herself a weak little girl. Being able to help the dying and heal the injured was already the most ambitious thing she could achieve.Asking her to save the people of Sacred Land was something that Baby Zetty had the spirit to do but was lacking in power and strength.She wanted to reject Jake, but seeing his solemn expression and the determined light in his eyes that was shining so brightly akin to Venus itself, Baby Zetty could not help but nod cautiously. “I promise.”Jake grinned at her and said, “Ms. Rozette, the Poison Doctor used poison to detain your whole family. They’re now weak and unable to fight back. So for me to rescue them, I’m afraid you have to find a way to detoxify them first.”Baby Zetty anxiously walked around in circles. “But I don’t know what type of poison is in their bodies.”Jake said, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you get some of their blood.”Baby Zetty gave it a thought and was reluctant for her da
The old man shook his head. “She’s so beautiful, so beautiful that no one can bear to lay a hand on her. If I can be young again, I’ll certainly make her fall into my grasp.”The woman was smiling. “Your feelings for her are sincere, and this is considered her blessing. If she hadn’t gotten your favor, she wouldn’t be able to stay here unscathed.”The old man nodded and said, “But the agreed time will come sooner or later. She’ll leave this place soon.”The woman replied, “Then you have to find a way to keep her here.”“Do you have a way?” the old man asked her.“We can keep Sir Ares here and make him our hostage. I heard that Rozette is a filial daughter, so she must be reluctant to abandon her father here and leave on her own.”“One can’t imprison Sir Ares that long.” The old man sighed regretfully and said, “There are too many capable people around him who are ready to come and rescue him. As long as he’s here, I’m unable to sleep well.”“Then why don’t we just….” The woman m
