Thankfully, they had managed to fool Renee.


    After Renee chatted with them for a while, Owen suggested that they let Renee rest. "There are three


    courses of treatment that she''ll take over a span of two weeks. She''ll get better with each treatment,


    but she also needs to rest. Let''s not disturb her."


    "Okay, let''s go then." Leia immediately stood up and asked everyone to leave Renee''s room.


    When they reached downstairs and confirmed that Renee was asleep, everyone called Neil and Elijah


    over and asked them to exin what had happened.


    Neil had wanted to set off for Dragos immediately with the remainder of the dragon''s saliva, but


    decided he owed them an exnation. Taking a deep breath, he said to everyone, "In order to get the


    dragon''s saliva, Mr. Hunt climbed our dragon statue, the most sacred thing in my n. What he did


    infuriated the vigers, and if they''re going to punish him by nws... They''ll cook and eat him,


    sacrificing him to the ancestors to pacify the dragon''s wrath."


    "What?! They’re going to cook and eat him?" Xavier yelped, leaping out of his chair. "What kind of


    crazy n are you from? Are they cannibals from Zambawi? Shouldn''t they consider the legal


    consequences of doing something like that?"


    Leia was still bewildered, but when she saw Xavier heading towards Neil to beat him up, she


    immediately stood between them and shouted at Xavier," Can you sit down quietly and listen to him?


    He''s the one who brought the dragon''s saliva here, so we should be thanking him!”


    "You think this is all because of him?" Xavier''s expression was icy as he red at Leia. "Didn''t you


    hear? Stefan risked his life for this, but you so easily forgot about that. Do you all want him to get into


    trouble?"


    "What? Listen-1 know you''re worried about Stefan, we all are. Ren will have a mental breakdown if


    anything happens to him, so at least for Ren''s sake, I don''t want to see him in trouble!" Leia sighed


    exasperatedly. She thought that Xavier was calm and rational, but he always went crazy when it came


    to Stefan. It made Leia wonder if he had a secret crush on Stefan.


    "Yes, Mr. Stuart, please calm down." Elijah continued helplessly, "Ms. Osborne is right-we''re all worried


    about Mr. Hunt, and we don''t want anything to happen to him. However, this matter was out of our


    hands, which is why things turned out this way. Let Neil finish before wee up with a n."

    Xavier took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down. Then, he said to Neil, "Go on."


    Neil timidly swallowed and continued, "Mr. Hunt urged me to bring the dragon''s saliva to Mr. Young no


    matter what happened, so after thinking about it, I went to find Mr. Young, instead of rescuing Mr.


    Hunt... I exited the vigete at night and reunited with Mr. Young, who was waiting at the foot of the


    mountains, then we came here."


    "What did you say?" Xavier bellowed and grabbed Neil''s cor. "You mean those barbaric vigers


    captured Stefan when you left, and you both didn’t go back to save him?!"


    "Ugh..."
