âSenior!â When Quincy saw Zayne York, he rushed into the room as he shouted, throwing his arms
around Zayne. His gaze and expression were as though he had thrown himself at his father.
Also, tears were leaking from his eyes. How cruel had Quincy been?
There had been such a big battle when he had kidnapped Daya. Not only did he hire foreign killers, but
he had also used helicopters and sea cruise ships to hoist the car Daya was in onto the cruise ship. He
had been extremely arrogant.
And now, he was crying like a child.
âSenior, you canât go into Caesarâs tomb. Itâs a cannibalistic place! What if something goes wrong?â
âI barely escaped with my life the last time. Do I have to go through it again?â
Zayne waved his hand. âIâve already decided. Also, Iâm the brightest and the best of the Drifters, as well
as their leader. How can I just go back on my word? But, you donât have to go in. You can stay outside.â
Quincy shook his head. âHow can I not go? If you go, of course, I will go. Weâre brothers, one from
Drifters and one from Abstracts. Together we will live, and divided, we will fall. I will never leave you
behind.â
Zayne pointed at Susan. âWe already have an officer from Abstracts.â
âHer?â Quincy snorted. âWhat does she amount to? The last time we went into the tomb, if it werenât for
Williamâs protection, she would have died many times over. Those little Abstract skills she has is
nothing worth looking at.â
Susan didnât feel any affectionate feelings toward Quincy. Not only did he have an aggressive
appearance, but even his words were also unpleasant to listen to.
She sneered. âWhatâs wrong with the little skills I have? Isnât it better than your half baked fake strength
you have? You canât even speak properly of Caesarâs tomb, despite being one of the few who survived.
People like you will only be cannon fodder when we enter the tomb.â
The two of them continued to have a go at each other.
Dorothy couldnât stand it anymore. She frowned and said to Alex, âWho are all these people? A bunch
of mobs. They donât even have much ability, and theyâre even turning on each other before we go down
into the tomb. Whatâs the point of bringing them?â
With those words, everyone present was offended.
However, Dorothy was filled with confidence.
She was a Core Fonnation master. No one here would be able to match up to her.
An ordinary woman like Susan Hunter, who had no cultivation base or skills, naturally was not even
significant in Dorothyâs eyes.
Susan was Williamâs woman, and she took herself to be Alexâs mother, who had a higher status. She
frowned and asked, âAlex, who is this with such a boastful tone?â
Alex replied, âSheâs my aunt.â
âWhat?â Susanâs mouth was open wide, her jaw slack.
Alexâs aunt, didnât that mean she was Williamâs sister? Looking at how young she was, she must be
Williamâs younger sister.
Then, that would mean that she was Susanâs sister-in-law.
Susanâs expression changed immediately. Since she was Susanâs sister-in-law, didnât that mean she
had to get into the womanâs good graces?
âHehe, so it turns out to be Brother Williamâs sister. I⦠Iâmâ¦â
Before she could say anything else, Dorothy said, âSheâs the woman that your father had on the side?â
âUh⦠Why do you have to say that?â Alex hurriedly diverted the topic, getting on the main topic at
hand. âThe Sky Tower project has been launched, and Iâve gotten the entrance of the tomb all
surrounded up to one kilometer around it. Time is of the essence, and tonight at twelve, weâll be
heading in.â
âWhat? So soon?!â Susan was astonished.
âYes, Iâm in a hurry,â Alex said. âSusan, I want to ask you something. The last time you guys went down
to the tomb, did you see any black lotuses?â
âBlack lotuses? Is there such a color on lotuses?â Susanâs face was blank.
Alexâs heart sank.
Could it be that there wasnât any there?
His father didnât manage to get it back then?
Freya spoke up at this moment. âYouâre talking about the Black Soul Lotus Seed?â
Alexâs eyes brightened. âYes, thatâs right. Itâs called the Black Soul Lotus Seed, do you know about it?â
Freya nodded. âYou can indeed find them in Caesarâs tomb. Iâve seen it before. Your father once picked
two of them, and itâs called Soul Substitute Lotus Seed.â
Alex was suddenly excited.
It really was true.
