Chapter 1035
After having dinner at Dream Garden, Stanley Batton, X Quest, and Ron Batton returned home
together.
As soon as they arrived home, Ron went upstairs.
Stanley took X’s hand and walked her to the sofa in the living room. He then extended his arms
and pulled her into his embrace.
X obediently snuggled up to him like a kitten. “Have you not found the person who killed Emily
and May yet?” she asked.
“No…” Stanley said.
“Apart from the cause of death, we’ve not found anything. I’ve already looked for other detectives to
assist Carson’s investigation,” he added.
X nodded wearily. “What about Zack? He brought some people to look for Yaksha. It’s been a
month and a half now… Logically, we should’ve received news by now.”
“Not for now…” As soon as Stanley said that, he received a call from Zack Cassidy.
He then answered the call and turned on the loudspeaker.
“Mr. Batton… I found traces of Yaksha on a nameless ind in a cloudless part of the sea…” Zack
said.
Once X heard this, she immediately felt happy. “What do you mean?”
“I found traces of traditional medicine cultivation and food…
“Not only that, but I also saw huge patches of red spider lilies.
“These, coupled with the clues you provided previously, make me feel that Yaksha is here…” Zack
said carefully.
Hearing this, X’s eyes instantly became bright. “In that case, quickly search for Yaksha. He might
really be on that ind.”
X felt that Yaksha was 80% likely to be on that ind ording to what Zack said.
“I would like to search for him too quickly… But now, my subordinates and I have gotten lost in a
forest. We’ve been going around in the same ce for two days, but we can’t get out… No matter
how many circles we’ve gone around, we are still in the same spot…
“The geomanticpass and conventionalpass we brought have all stopped working here…
“Now, we can’t find our direction…
“Apart from reporting to you about the clues we found, I also called in hopes of getting help from
you and Mr. Batton…” Zack said.
After hearing this, X instantly realized how serious the problem was.
With their conventionalpass and geomanticpass failing, it was likely that there was a
maic field interference device on the ind.
The reason Zack and the others were lost was probably that they were in a forest maze.
If Yaksha really was on that ind, then all this must have been Yaksha’s way to avoid being
disturbed. That was why he set it all up.
There were some forest mazes withplicated settings. Once a person entered, it was very
difficult to get out.
“Now, we’re nearly running out of dry food and water… If this goes on, I’m afraid we might die here,”
Zack added.
“Don’t panic… Send us your location,” X instantly said.
“Alright… Now, among us, only my phone still has some battery left. Once I send you my location,
my phone would probably automatically shut down…” With that, Zack hung up the phone.
Immediately after that, Zack shared his location with Stanley on WeChat.

After seeing the exact location, X then looked at Stanley. “I suspect that they may have entered a
forest maze… I know a thing or two about mazes. That’s why, I have to get there quickly…” She
said.
“Alright… Let’s go together,” Stanley said.
“Okay…”
