Soon, he saw George in front of the mansion.

"He refuses to help." George said exasperatedly, "He wants a life for a life. To use my life in exchange for the village chief's life."

Stephen frowned. Although he knew Ethan was quite ruthless, he did not expect him to be this brutal, demanding George's death blatantly.

Stephen said, "I'll call out to him.

He took a deep breath and then yelled, "Ethan, open the door! I need to talk to you!"

"Go back." Ethan's voice sounded from above their heads.

Stephen and George looked up to see Ethan standing on the balcony, watching them calmly. "It's not early anymore. I'm about to rest."

It was close to 7 p.m., and the sky had turned dark. Ethan was already prepared to eat, bathe, and go to bed.
