Chapter 862 Spoke At Long Last

“Oh, well!”

Renalia heaved a sigh.

The maid was just about to speak further when she realized that Ryker had actually walked in. Such terror struck

her that she hastily placed the food down and left.

Ryker glanced at the maid who hurried out before saying to Renalia, “Renalia, is the food I had them prepare to

your liking?”

His voice was filled with concern as though he wasn’t the one confining her.

 

In response, Renalia rolled her eyes at him without saying anything in return. She had long since gotten

accustomed to his pretentiousness.

Throughout the years, she had never uttered a single word to him. No matter how great the agony inflicted upon

her, never once did she break her silence.

 

Likewise, Ryker was seemingly used to her expression. He casually sat down at the table and picked up the fork,

taking some food and sampling it.

“This salad is a bit too salty. This pumpkin soup isn’t smooth enough either. Oh, there’s steak. I remember that this

was your favorite back when you were young.”

While sampling the food, Ryker kept up a running commentary with Renalia. However, Renalia kept mum, so it was

as though he was talking to himself.

After taking a few bites, Ryker wiped his mouth and stood up.

“Renalia, I never expected you to have a son in this world. Besides, that son of yours has very likely secured the

draconic essence. It looks like he’s aware of his identity, hoping to come and save you. I actually hope he’ll come to

the Deragon residence soon enough so that I can get to know my nephew better. After all, he must have suffered

much in all these years he had been adrift out there,” he remarked languidly.

When Renalia heard all that, a hint of worry flashed across her initially expressionless face. It was fleeting, but even

so, Ryker managed to catch it.

At the sight of that, Ryker grinned from ear to ear, his smugness evident.

“It has been more than twenty years, but you never once revealed the secret I wish to know. I couldn’t do anything

to you, but now, I’ve got a nephew. Say, if that nephew of mine begs you to speak then, you won’t remain silent

anymore, will you? The two of you will be able to meet each other soon. I’ve already sent some men out to escort

that nephew of mine home. Haha…”

Having said that, he laughed uproariously, convinced that God was on his side. If it weren’t for this nephew of mine

who appeared abruptly, I’d probably never be able to learn the secret I wanted to know.

Renalia’s eyes brimmed with hatred as she glared at the man who was guffawing maniacally. She knew that he was

already a lunatic then and had no qualms doing anything at all.

“If you dare hurt my son, I’ll haunt you even in death!”

She spoke at long last. That was the first time she ever spoke to him in almost twenty years.

Hearing her speak to him, Ryker was stunned for a moment before he instantly started cackling maniacally again.

“Dear Renalia, he’s my nephew, so how could I possibly hurt him? Don’t worry!”

When he walked out of the dungeon, he wore a gratified and triumphant expression. The more she cares about her

son, the more likely I’ll be able to learn the secret I want to know!

In the days to follow, many people searched for Jared frantically. Shadow Estate became the target of public

criticism, for Leviathan was the one who took the man away at the end of the day.

At that moment, Jared was cultivating in solitary training at the Medicine God Sect and knew nothing about the

happenings in the outside world.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed.

In the entire month, he hadn’t shifted places or moved, let alone consumed a bite of food or a drop of water.

With the spiritual energy perpetually emitted by the draconic essence, he didn’t have to worry about his spiritual

energy running out. All he needed to do was to cultivate ceaselessly.
