Jay turned his head around and saw Gale quickening his pace over with the old woman on his back. His eyes immediately narrowed at the sight.

Cole exclaimed in admiration, "This youngster is truly extraordinary. Having such endurance and tenacity at such a young age, he's absolutely not someone to be trifled with."

Jay said, "That grandma on his back is not someone to be trifled with as well."

Gale quickly caught up, his breathing still calm and steady as he smiled. He said, "Sir Ares, my grandma here wants to have a word with you alone."

At this time, the man who claimed to be Boye's nephew stood forth and stopped him in a displeased manner. "If you have something to say, just say it in front of everyone. Why are you being sneaky?" Gale put Baby Zetty down and she walked toward Jay before asking, "Sir Ares, do you know who they are?"

Jay smiled and said, "Well, they claim to be Boye's relatives from the other branch of the family."

Baby Zetty said, "Do you believe that?"

Jay said, "I think they do have a slight resemblance with my ancestors, so I'll take their word for it this one

time."

Baby Zetty looked at the man, and his appearance was indeed somewhat similar to Mr. Boye. However, Mr. Boye had told Baby Zetty before her death that she was the only descendant of the Boyes now. For this reason alone, Mister had protected Baby Zetty's life at the expense of herself. This showed that Mister had no trustworthy relatives at all.

Baby Zetty took an indirect approach instead and said, "Even if they're her relatives, can they cure your daughter's disease?"

Jay glanced at Baby Zetty and said, "Please talk frankly, Lady Winter."

The man confidently said, "I'm a direct disciple of the Boyes' bloodline. If I can't cure the poison inside them, no one else in the world can."

Baby Zetty knew that her father was pressing for time to save them. Judging from his character that was courageous and unafraid of danger, she knew she could not persuade him. She had to think of another way.

Baby Zetty tried to gain sympathy and said, "If you truly are the direct disciple of the Boyes' bloodline, then I'm in luck. Can you take a look at my illness as well, Mister?"

The man looked at Baby Zetty confidently and said, " Once we get to the village at the front, I'll give you a check-up."

Baby Zetty said, "Thank you, Mister."

Jay's deep, unfathomable eyes looked at Baby Zetty in scrutiny without blinking. Since Baby Zetty was obviously good at the art of healing herself, why did she need the man to treat her illness? What was her intention?

As the team continued to move forward, Baby Zetty whispered to Jay, "Sir Ares, did you notice that? He couldn't even tell if I'm sick or not. Do you truly believe that he'll be able to save your people?"

Jay said, "I don't trust him. But I do believe that he's able to bring me to the Boyes' real descendants."

Baby Zetty lamented and sighed.

She was the person Daddy was looking for, but how could she let Daddy know who she was now?

It seemed like the only thing she could do now was secretly find a chance to rescue Andy and Grayson.

The man took them to a village. However, the buildings in this village appeared old as if they had been built decades ago. The houses with low courtyards were made of natural red sandstone. They looked magnificent when lined up closely one after another.

They arranged for Jay and the others to stay in the east and south courtyards. Baby Zetty took the initiative to stay next door to her father. As for the severely ill Andy and Grayson, they were placed in the north courtyard.

On their first day, the people there entertained Jay and the others with delicious food. They did not mention anything regarding medical treatments.

However, the food they served was poisonous.

Jay and the others lay weakly on the table after their meal. At this moment, the man finally revealed his true colors. "I'll tell you the truth, Sir Ares. I genuinely carry the Boyes' bloodline, but our bloodline isn't the line you're looking for. The Lynne Boye you're seeking has died."
