Chapter 20: 020: He is a Legend (2)

The bridge has been constantly renovated over time, so today, whether in terms of its sturdiness or appearance, it ranks among the finest in the world. It stretches for 5888 meters and is 58 meters wide, with a total of 208 bridge piers, making it quite a spectacle.

The bridge and the island have become landmarks of Night City. Saint Emperia essentially equates to the Yancey Clan - any property bearing this name belongs to the Yancey Family, and there are countless such properties in Night City.

Because the Yancey Family resides on Saint Emperia Island, it is somewhat challenging to get to the island. For women who wish to meet Liam Yancey, it's certainly no easy feat...

"Young Master," Fierce Eagle says with a bow of his head, his back straight as he takes the mask from Liam's hand. His demeanor is respectful as he waits for instructions.

Liam Yancey looks down, rolling his shirt sleeve to his elbow, revealing a strong and firm forearm.

He hooks a smirk, his harmful handsome face radiating a fatal allure as he lifts his gaze. His deep-set, enchanting eyes flicker with an unreadable spark.

"Tara Summer...is unique," his low, husky voice is magnetic yet icy, devoid of any warmth, a mix of pleasing and petrifying tones that give one goosebumps.

"Young Master..." Fierce Eagle raises his eyes slightly, continuing only when he catches sight of his master's slightly less intimidating expression, "Does the Young Master mean..."

"Hmph." Liam Yancey glances at him, his thin lips curling up with a chilling temperature, "This woman, I'm setting my sights on her!"

After saying this, the man steps away. His steps are graceful, like a predatory beast ready to pounce, yet also dignified like a king, contemptuous of everyone else.

Fierce Eagle stands respectfully, watching him leave, the excitement in his heart barely contained!

Just as people outside know, the young master indeed has no interest in women. Ever since he was ten, if any woman approached him, he would lash out.

Old Master Yancey and his wife were overwhelmed with worry. Liam Yancey is the only son of the Yancey Family. If he doesn't like women, wouldn't the family line end with him?

Then, when Liam Yancey was fifteen years old, a strange thing happened.

Liam Yancey and his father went to Europe, where they encountered a murder attempt by an enemy. Midway through their journey, Liam Yancey got poisoned. The poison was peculiar. After conducting blood tests, the private doctor informed that it was an ancient poison from the Hmong Region, so finding an antidote would likely be very difficult.

Old Master Yancey sent many people to look for a cure for this poison, but got nothing.

None of the doctors knew how to deal with this type of poison. Fortunately, Liam Yancey did not show any abnormal symptoms at first.

Then, on the 15th of the month, Liam Yancey suddenly started exhibiting symptoms. His eyes were bloodshot, his body was burning hot. A tribal pattern that morphed between a dragon and a beast appeared on his left chest. When the poison hit hardest, the pattern would turn gold. Liam Yancey's heightened male desire alerted the doctors that he had been hit with a love poison!

The poison could trigger a powerful lust and a craving for blood. Legend had it that only by making love with a woman could the poison be neutralized.

Although the poison was not deadly, it was incredibly painful. For their son, even though he was only fifteen, Old Master Yancey was willing to find a woman to help cure him.

But who would have guessed, stubborn as he was, Liam Yancey refused any contact with women, even while in excruciating pain!

In reality, he would have liked nothing more than to be rid of the love poison. However, an intense repulsion arose whenever women came near him. So even when his body was in unbearable agony, he would not touch them, not even a finger.

For five years, Old Master Yancey and his wife couldn't bear it any longer. They ordered Fierce Eagle, Snow Eagle, and Owl Eagle to bring women from all around the globe to Liam Yancey during every full moon night. They refused to believe that there wasn't a single woman in the world who could catch their son's eye!

Unfortunately, their efforts were in vain for five long years. In their desperation, the Yancey elders decided to travel the world and left their son's dilemma behind.
