"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. Bather, 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 death and threats.

The old man smiled wickedly and asked, "I heard you love your children very much?"

Surging anger burst out of Jay's sharp eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you dare lay a finger on them, I'll drag you down with me even if I die today."

"No, no, no. You can't kill me." The old man smiled triumphantly.

"This is my territory, and they're all my believers.

Even the air inside this place listens to me. Smell it, Jay Ares. Isn't there a lot of poison in the air? If you kill me, won't everyone here die with me? Are you willing to commit such a massacre?"

Jay had long been aware of the unique smell in the air. Besides, his body was getting weaker by the day. He had guessed that the air in this place was extremely poisonous.

"It's truly despicable and shameless of you to use such a method to control people's wills," cursed Jay.

The old man smiled proudly instead of being ashamed. "Even if you don't tell me, I already know that you're Lynne Boye's descendant. Which makes you a descendant of mine. I don't want you to die like this. I merely asked you to come today so that you'll be my hostage..."

Jay's pupils immediately shrunk. The old man was egotistical and invincible. Why did he need a hostage?

Jay felt extremely apprehensive and could faintly feel

that something bad was about to happen.

Sure enough, the next moment, the old man said bluntly, "Your darling little girl has made a deal with me. She was to make me Rejuvenation Pills in exchange for the safety of all you people."

Jay said, "Since it's an agreement, what do you need a hostage for?"

The old man said, "She's so young, so I wonder if she's able to make Rejuvenation Pills. If she can't do it, all of you have to die. But if she can..."

The old man's eyes became deep all of a sudden. It was as though he had lost his glory and became dark and dispirited.

"She's so young. If she's able to achieve results that I couldn't achieve for more than a hundred years, then her medical achievements far exceed mine. What if she decides to trick me? I have to be on guard, right?"

Jay sneered and scoffed, "Coward."

The old man rolled his eyes at Jay. Looking at Jay's handsome face that barely carried any traces of time, he was envious.

"Lock him alone in the backyard. If Rozette Ares' experiment fails, I'll do experiments on him instead."

"Yes, sir."

When the goatee man was approaching him, Jay shot a sharp glare at him, making the former feel slightly taken aback.

Nephele pushed him aside and said, "You good-for-nothing! Even if he's a leopard, he's still a trapped leopard. Why are you still so scared of him?"

Nephele pushed Jay harshly, and his whole body fell limply to the ground.
