Crippled Williams' insanity began to engulf him once again. He became more agitated and showed symptoms of
going into shock.
Zeke immediately took out his Ammo Needle and started treating Crippled Williams, forcing him to calm down.
The Ammo Needle had incredible results in suppressing pain and tranquilizing a patient. Five minutes after the
treatment, Crippled Williams finally calmed down and slowly regained his sanity.
Zeke got straight to the point. “Tell me, what conditions do you have to take me to the Golden Sands Mountain?”
Anger gripped Crippled Williams at Zeke's persistence. “Do you not understand my words? I already told you. I
won't take you to Golden Sands Mountain even if you kill me.”
Ares had lost all his patience with the crippled man's stubbornness. “Let's not waste our breath on him. Since he
has a death wish, let's grant it to him.”
Next, Ares unsheathed his sword and pointed it at Crippled Williams' neck. “Last chance. If you refuse to take us, I'll
slice off your head.”
However, no sign of fear crossed Crippled Williams' face. “All right, do it quick then. My brother has been

like he predicted that I'll soon meet him.”
Ares glanced at Zeke, waiting for his order.
“Even if he doesn't lead us, we can find the way ourselves. We don't have to beg him.”
Zeke shook his head. “Things are not as simple as you think.”
He shifted his gaze to Sole Wolf. “Sole Wolf, how much money do you have? Take it all out.”
Sole Wolf was speechless. Crippled Williams would rather die than lead us. What makes Zeke think he'll care about
this bit of money?
Despite his thoughts, Sole Wolf didn't dare to disobey Zeke's orders and took out all the money on him.
Unexpectedly, Crippled Williams' eyes sparkled when he spotted the money. His face trembled fervently from
excitement.
He reached out his trembling hand to touch the money. “So much money... There's so much money...” he kept
mumbling to himself.
Sole Wolf and the rest were stunned. It seemed like they had underestimated the power of money.
Sole Wolf soon snapped out of his shock and swiftly pocketed the money before Crippled Williams could touch it.
“Want that?”
Crippled Williams nodded. “I want it! Of course, I want it!”
Sole Wolf negotiated, “Then agree to our condition and lead us to the Golden Sands Mountain.”
Crippled Williams hesitated briefly before accepting their offer readily. “All right, deal.”
With that, Sole Wolf threw the small bag of money to Crippled Williams.
Crippled Williams instantly pocketed the bag. His hands clenched the pocket forcefully as though someone might
snatch it from him.
At that point, Zeke and the others realized that money was more important than life to Crippled Williams.
Zeke said, “Now that you've accepted our payment, you'll have to fulfill your part of the agreement. I'll cut your
head off if you go back on your words.”
Crippled Williams replied, “Of course, even I have that bit of trustworthiness, but I have some conditions if you want
me to lead you to the mountain.”
Zeke said, “Name it.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCrippled Williams warned, “I have three important principles. I have never broken them, and the three of you are to
follow suit. If you don't abide by my principles, I'll return the money to you, and you can take my life if you want.”
Zeke repeated, “Name it.”
Crippled Williams listed, “There are three kinds of people that aren't allowed up the mountain with me. Firstly,
pregnant women. Secondly, children. Thirdly...”
After a short pause, his gaze landed on Zeke. “Thirdly, anyone with the last name Williams isn't allowed up the
mountain.”
Zeke and the rest were shocked.
We can understand the first two conditions since pregnant women and children will most likely die if they trek up
the mountain. That's perfectly understandable.
However, what's with the third condition? Does he have a grudge against the Williams family?
Zeke asked, “Tell us the reason you can't take members of the Williams family up the mountain with you.”
Crippled Williams replied, “Simple because I'm also a Williams.
Zeke questioned, “What does that have anything to do with not bringing a Williams up the mountain?”
Crippled Williams said, “Trust me when I say it does. We'll leave now if you agree to my conditions. If you don't...
Sorry, but please don't disturb me after this.”
