A Man Like None Other - Season 4 Episode 64

Longevity Pill

Jared leaped up and directed his kicks at the two men’s knees, instantly crushing their kneecaps. Both men crumpled to the floor, shrieking in pain.

Without another word, Jared went on to break all their limbs, leaving them in a distorted mess.

As they lay limply on the ground, groaning in pain, Jared repeated his question. “Why are you targeting Lizbeth, and where are you taking her to?”

“Mr. J-Jantz gave us instructions to bring Ms. Grange back to him. He… he wanted to get information about you from her,” the two men confessed as they could not bear the torture any longer.

Jared gave a grimace of disgust, upset that the Jantz family had become far too arrogant. They had no regard that Lizbeth was an investigator of the Department of Justice and had no qualms about kidnapping her.

He threw a glance at the unconscious Lizbeth, and a murderous glint flashed across his eyes.

He went over to Lizbeth, gently picked her up, and settled her onto the couch. After that, he grabbed the two men, brought them down to the car, threw them into the boot, and drove toward the Jantzs’ house.

Over at the Jantzs’ place, there were loud harrowing screams coming from a room. In between the girls’ screams, one could hear the sadistic laughter of a man.

Two bodyguards of the Jantz family were standing guard outside the room, and they were horrified by what they were hearing.

“Who would have guessed a decent-looking man like Master Venicus has such a sickening fetish?” One of the bodyguards could not bear to keep his silence any longer.

“Hush!” His partner quickly looked around in panic and warned him, “Are you courting death? If Mr. Jantz hears you, he will silence you and your whole family!”

That reminder alone was enough to make the first bodyguard shut up in fear.

No one could tell how long the agonizing episode went on before suddenly, an eerie silence ensued.

“Men, get them out!”

Master Venicus’ voice boomed from within the room, and the two bodyguards hurriedly went inside. The scene that greeted them made them gasp in horror.

The two girls were dead. The injuries on their naked body were so appalling that even the two tough men could not bear to take a second look.

Averting their eyes, they quickly picked up the bodies and got out of the room.

They bumped into the butler as they exited Venicus’ room. Leonardo caught sight of the dead bodies and he too, could not help but frown. “Bring them away and bury the bodies. Don’t you dare breathe a word to anyone. Otherwise, you’ll bear the dire consequences,” he reminded the bodyguards.

“Understood!” The two bodyguards nodded profusely and hurriedly left with the bodies.

Watching as they disappeared down the doorway, Leonardo let out a small sigh and shook his head in sympathy.

Turning around, he entered Venicus’ room. Venicus was lying on the couch with a cigarette in hand, looking satisfied.

“Master Venicus, the ingredients needed for the longevity pill are ready. When would you like to begin the preparation?” Leonardo respectfully asked.

“Leave them there.” Venicus waved his hand casually in the direction of the table, showing no intention of getting up. “What about the herbs for Crescent Sect?” he asked.

“We are in the midst of procuring them. They should be ready in a couple of days. Mr. Jantz has already given instructions for us to join you on your trip back to Crescent Sect, so you don’t have to worry about the logistics,” Leonardo replied.

“Tell Zachariah that I will start working on the longevity pill once he gets all the herbs for Crescent Sect ready,” Venicus leisurely said, knowing he was the one who held all the cards in the situation.

“Noted. I will convey the message to Mr. Jantz.” Leonardo nodded in acknowledgment. He then took out a bag and carefully placed it on the table. The bag was full of precious and rare ingredients needed to make the longevity pill.

After excusing himself from Venicus’ room, Leonardo headed straight to Zachariah’s room, where Zachariah was anxiously waiting.
