Benjamin was furious upon hearing that. “Mr. Hyde, do you even know what you’re saying?”
Nelson smirked coldly. “I know exactly what I’m saying. If you can give your daughter to that old man, why not let me have a turn? Or are you looking down on me?”
Benjamin was seething with anger, but he knew he had to keep his temper in check. “Mr. Hyde, I was compelled to give my daughter to that old man. If you’re interested in women, I can arrange for some. You can request any type you fancy.”
Nelson looked disdainful. “Don’t try to dismiss me with those mediocre options or women who are available to anyone. Let me make it clear your daughter is mine, and whether you agree or not doesn’t matter to me.”
“Mr. Hyde, you’re crossing a line!” Benjamin glared at him.
Nelson smirked condescendingly. “Mr. Lloyd, consider yourself lucky I’m speaking civilly with you. If I get provoked, you know what will happen.”
Benjamin’s fists clenched, and his whole body trembled with anger. At that moment, he truly wished he could strike Nelson down with a single blow.
Yet, he maintained his composure. Despite the Lloyd family’s prowess, they lacked a divine grandmaster. If Nelson were to attack the Lloyd family, the consequences would be disastrous.
“Benjamin, my patience is wearing thin. I’ll ask you one last time-do you agree or not?” Nelson’s face was filled with menace.
“Fine, I agree,” Benjamin conceded. It was a compromise he had to make for the sake of the entire family.
“Mr. Lloyd, that’s the right decision. Keep our affairs within the family. From now on, we’re still friends,” Nelson said, placing a hand on Benjamin’s shoulder. His expression was disgustingly lecherous.
Benjamin seethed with rage. He was silently cursing Nelson with every fiber of his being.
However, Nelson disregarded Benjamin’s thoughts entirely; he was eagerly anticipating Rainey’s exquisite figure and growing increasingly impatient.
“Mr. Lloyd, I’ve been holding back for days. Bring your daughter over now,” he demanded impatiently.
Benjamin cursed Nelson vehemently once more.
He was almost bursting with anger. As the esteemed head of the Lloyd family, he couldn’t even protect his own daughter.
“Mr. Hyde, my daughter is still in the master healer’s room. The healer needs her to restore
his vitality. Please be patient,” Benjamin said through gritted teeth.
“I don’t want to wait any longer. Go now. If you don’t, I’ll go myself,” Nelson snapped impatiently.
“Please have a cup of tea. I’ll go check,” Benjamin said reluctantly.
Benjamin could only swallow his pride and make his way toward Sebastian’s room. He could only hope that Sebastian had completed his task. Otherwise, he didn’t know what he would do next.
Sebastian continued his cultivation inside the room. After stepping into the Divine Realm, he immediately began practicing the techniques of the second transformation. The spiritual energy around him surged into his body much faster than before his breakthrough.
As his cultivation level increased, he absorbed spiritual energy faster. After completing a full cycle of his cultivation technique, he stopped.
When he opened his eyes, a glint flashed through them like a bolt of lightning.
He exhaled deeply, feeling refreshed and immensely comfortable.
After dressing, he stood and stretched his muscles. He could feel boundless strength flowing through his body.
He took a dagger and pricked his arm, yet it left only a small white dot.
His defense had become several times stronger than before. Even if he just stood still, it would be challenging for a grandmaster to breach his defenses.
