“You better not be lying to us, or you know the consequences.” Mr. Noble warned before Ethan Smith could speak.

Ethan glanced at Mr. Noble, then slowly said, “I’m just trying to seek a better future for myself. If… I can make it out alive, can I serve the Taylor family too?”

Lying was as easy as breathing for Ethan Smith, not worth mentioning.

Meanwhile, Ethan used his divine sense to convey the same message to Mr. Noble.

Sammy Taylor glanced at Mr. Noble, seemingly asking for confirmation.

Mr. Noble hurriedly nodded, “Young Master Taylor, that’s exactly what he’s thinking.”

A playful smile appeared at the corner of Sammy Taylor’s mouth.

“A Grandmaster wants to serve my Taylor family?” Sammy mocked coldly.

“A Grandmaster is nothing but an ant, you’re delusional!” Glenn Tucker spoke up.

To make his words more convincing, Ethan continued, “I just want to give it a try. If I can really join the Taylor family, I won’t have to worry about my future…”

Sammy Taylor raised an eyebrow, saying indifferently, “I might consider, since you’re so sincere. But first, you have to find a treasure for me down there.”

Ethan pretended to be excited, “Don’t worry! I’ll give it my all!”

Everyone walked up to the Huge Pit in unison.

The moment they approached the Huge Pit, the terrifying dark energy almost engulfed them!

Not to mention using their Inner Strength, even their physical bodies could barely withstand it!

Sammy Taylor kicked a stone into the pit, and the moment it entered, it turned to dust.

“So horrible?” Sammy frowned slightly.

“If a living body enters, it’s likely to be ground into dust!” someone exclaimed in shock.

Ethan pretended to be afraid and said, “Young Master Taylor, I’m just a Grandmaster. If I go in… I’m afraid I’ll die inside.”

“What are you afraid of! Maybe this dark energy doesn’t affect the body at all.” Glenn Tucker kicked Ethan and said.

“That’s true, usually, dark energy doesn’t cause much harm to the body.” Someone else chimed in.

Despite the words, no one dared to step forward.

“Cannon fodder, time for you to play your part. Try if this dark energy can harm the body or not.” Glenn Tucker sneered.

Ethan pretended to be scared, “I… I’m afraid.”

“Afraid? Then go die!” Glenn Tucker scolded.

Seeing the situation, Ethan hurriedly said, “Fine, I’ll go, but… I have to take her with me!”

Ethan pointed towards Clare Richardson.

Clare Richardson glared at Ethan fiercely, spat on the ground, and cursed, “Coward! Suck-up!”

Ignoring Clare, Ethan looked hopefully at Sammy Taylor.

Sammy Taylor hesitated for a moment, then said, “No, in case she can’t withstand the dark energy, it’ll be troublesome. You go down first.”

Ethan’s heart sank.

This Sammy Taylor wasn’t easily fooled.

“Young Master Taylor, let me take her with me.” Ethan murmured.

“Otherwise… I’m not confident.”

“Cut the crap!” Glenn Tucker scolded.

“Hurry up and get down there, or I’ll kick you to death!” People around also chimed in.

Realizing he couldn’t deceive them, Ethan sighed, “Alright, but… I need to take something from her. Is that okay?”

“What do you want to take?” Sammy raised his eyebrows.

Ethan said softly, “I’ve never been with a woman, and if I die like this, I’ll be so unwilling.”

“I… I want a strand of her hair, is that alright?” Ethan said with a forced smile.

As soon as they heard this, everyone burst into laughter.

“What a loser! A strand of hair is enough to satisfy you?”

“No wonder he’s wearing a cuckold’s hat, a complete loser.”

Even Clare couldn’t help feeling nauseous.

How could such a man exist in this world?

“Can I?” Ethan looked at Sammy Taylor with a forced smile.

Sammy Taylor nodded, saying, “I can satisfy your wish.”

Ethan quickly went in front of Clare.

“Don’t touch me!” Clare couldn’t help but yell.

Ignoring her, Ethan approached and held Clare in his arms!

“You… let go of me!” Both shy and furious, Clare struggled.

“Ha! This kid is quite greedy.”

“How does it feel to hold her?”

Ethan quickly said, “Comfortable, really comfortable!”

“Disgusting!” Clare couldn’t help but curse.

Ethan whispered to Clare Ear Side, “I’m Ethan Smith. Find a way to go down with me later. I’ll find a way to save you.”

As soon as she heard this, Clare was stunned.

Before she could speak, Ethan hurriedly said, “Keep struggling! Don’t let them see through us.”

Clare hesitated for a moment, then continued to struggle.

“You let me go! Don’t touch me! You disgusting bastard!” Clare struggled desperately.

However, Ethan held Clare tightly without any intention of letting go.

“Stop it already.” Sammy frowned.

Ethan finally let go of Clare.

“Satisfied now? Hurry up and go down. Don’t waste any more time.” Sammy said coldly.

Ethan nodded and walked to the edge of the Huge Pit. Just as he was about to jump down, Clare shouted, “I want to go down too!”

“You want to go down too?” Sammy’s eyebrows knitted together.

“Little girl, you will die if you go down.” Glenn Tucker said indifferently.

Clare snorted, “Let me tell you the truth, I’ve been down before, and it was completely fine!”

“You’ve been down? Little girl, you can’t lie to me.” Mr. Noble raised an eyebrow.

“Who’s lying to you? I’ve been down there!” Clare stubbornly insisted.

After saying that, Clare glared fiercely at Ethan and said, “I’m going to kill him after I go down!”

Sammy Taylor frowned slightly, looking at Ethan, “Did you say anything to her?”

Ethan’s eyes darted, “I… I talked to her. I said… she’s really soft…”

“Ha! No wonder she’s so angry.” The others laughed uproariously and relaxed their vigilance towards Clare.

But Sammy was cautious.

He pondered for a moment, then turned to Mr. Noble, “Aren’t you a master of the mind? Check if she’s lying.”

“No problem, Young Master Taylor, leave it to me!” Mr. Noble patted his chest confidently.

As he finished speaking, Mr. Noble walked towards Clare.

His fingers glowed slightly, as he pointed at the center of Clare’s forehead.

“Damn!” Ethan’s face changed drastically!
