Since Elena insisted that he drink more, Sebastian had no choice but to comply. Otherwise, she would definitely become suspicious. Hence, he took another small sip.
"Keep drinking!" Elena shouted as she gave a firm order.
"Ms. Spark, I drank a lot earlier. I really can't drink any more," Sebastian said with a bitter smile.
"Drinking a bit more won't kill you. If you refuse, it means you're hiding something. Are you trying to poison me?" Elena speculated.
"How could that be possible? I've used up all my poison syringes, and you've searched me thoroughly. Even if I wanted to poison you, I don't have any poison left. If you don't trust me, I'll take two more sips." At this point, Sebastian had no choice but to steel himself and take two large gulps.
Finally, Elena had no more doubts. The medicinal soup was appetizing. She liked it after just one sip and drank the whole bowl.
"I've drunk the soup. Now, can you tell me?" Elena asked.
"I have one last condition," Sebastian said.
Elena's expression instantly darkened. "My patience is limited. You've made conditions again and again. Are you trying to fool me?"
"No. Absolutely not," Sebastian replied calmly. "I swear. This is the last condition."
"What is it?" Elena was raging mad, but she had to suppress her anger to learn the secret of the Seraphic Tear Pendant and the amulets.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"I want my freedom. Take me out of this valley and I'll tell you. But after I tell you, you must let me go," Sebastian said.
Elena glanced at Sebastian's legs and said, "Your legs are disabled. You can still survive if you stay here. Once you leave, you'll starve to death."
Sebastian sneered, "If I can only live in humiliation, I'd rather die of starvation."
"Fine. I agree," Elena said without much hesitation and drove Sebastian out of the valley. Halfway through, Sebastian's face turned red, and his breathing became rapid. A wave of heat surged within him. He remained calm outwardly but was secretly anxious. His current physical condition was really poor. Just two sips were already causing the effects to kick in so quickly.
Fortunately, Elena drank later. And given her high level of cultivation, she hadn't shown any signs of the drug taking effect.
Soon, they left the valley, but Elena didn't stop the car. She kept driving forward. As
Sebastian suspected, she planned to kill him once he revealed the secret. After she learned the secret of the Seraphic Tear Pendant and the amulets, she'd find a way to acquire them and enter the Perpetual Empire.
Two minutes later, Elena drove into the woods. By then, she had also sensed something was wrong. Her heart was racing, and she felt very hot. Not only that, there was a strange, inexplicable desire stirring within her.
