    Grayson was exceedingly polite as he said to Shirley," Sis, I''ll carry you."

    Shirley was rtively weak, so she did not feel like trying to act strong. Hence, she agreed.


    Zayne whimpered at the sight. He was already huffing when walking on his own, but he still had to


    consider his dignity. Hence, he said to Josephine, "Darling, I''ll carry you."


    Josephine saw Zayne''s pale face and did not know whether the cold weather or his frailness caused


    it. She replied, "I''ll be fine walking. Just don''t make me carry you."


    Zayne was very moved by this. "I’m only able to marry such a great woman in this lifetime because


    of my good deeds in my past life."


    Jay had a distaste for Zayne''sck of tact and immediately retorted, "If that''s the case, then she


    must’ve ended up with you because she’s done too many wicked things in her previous life."


    Josephine,


    Zayne,


    Once the female guide took them down the odd yet t mountain roads, they reached the downhill


    fork.


    The guide stopped to turn around and ask them, "This road on the left, ording to historical


    records, has killed 382 people. Meanwhile, this road on the right has killed 283 tourists. Which one


    do you want to take?"


    Zayne shivered at her words. "Why have so many people died here?"


    "They fell down the mountain identally and died."


    Zayne trembled and said, "Then, we''ll take the one on the right. It has lesser casualties."


    The corner of the guide’s mouth was lifted. "This is as far as I''ll go. As long as you keep going down


    this road, you will naturally see the Yorks’ stronghold signage when you reach the middle of the


    mountain."


    When the guide finished speaking, she turned around and went back.


    Jay pondered for a moment and said, "Let’s go to the left instead."


    "Why?" Zayne was puzzled.


    Jay exined, "The road we walked through earlier was what they called the ''Light and Dark Road’.


    This bifurcation is a test of life and death. If we choose the wrong route today, our entire team will


    be wiped out i n this deep forest mountain."


    Zayne stared at Jay in a daze. "How do you know that?"


    Jay replied, "Just guessing."


    The truth was that Jay was able to get insights by looking at the map left to him by his mother,


    Chloe.


    In Yorks’ stronghold.


    Cole brought Carson with him as he hastily rushed over to the Yorks’ stronghold’s guest hall.


    In the hall, the head of the family, Spencer Yorks, was sitting in a lounge chair leisurely with a big


    pipe in his mouth. Although he was almost in his 60s, he looked particrly young.


    He looked like a young man in his 40s and was rather elegant and graceful.


    Several beautiful concubines stood next to him. They looked like they were in their prime times and


    so tender-looking that one had to resist themselves from pinching them. Every one of them was


    captivating, and their beauty exceeded even that of the natural world.


    Cole stood in front of Spencer furiously. He questioned him, "Old man, what’s the meaning of you


    sending me a ball of cactus? Are you trying to tell me I''m a piece of trash?"


    Spencer slowly retorted, "You''re no longer young, yet you''re refusing to continue on the Yorks family


    bloodline. I think calling you trash is rather subtle."


    Cole nodded his head to his personal guard, Carson, and Carson hurriedly ced the cactus on the


    hall''s table.
