Fortunately, Jordan kept his cool and was not in a hurry to reveal his golden mutant identity. He also did not attack Randall and the mutants. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to obtain such important information.
The fact that the golden bloodline could be transmitted to low-level mutants meant a lot.
All mutants below the golden level hoped and yearned for greater power, including Victoria. If she knew that Jordan was a golden mutant, she would definitely want to be with him again.
In reality, if nothing had happened between Jordan and Victoria, what did it matter if Jordan sacrificed some of his golden bloodline to pass it on to Victoria?
Unfortunately, the two of them had already separated. Jordan could not do that anymore.
The relationship between Randall and Jordan was no longer as harmonious as before. There was no need for Randall to drink to his heart's content with Jordan. He was only doing this for Victoria and the other mutants to see.
Not long after, Randall stood up and said, "Alright, continue drinking. I won't accompany you anymore. Victoria, accompany me to the helipad. I also brought a gift for you. You'll definitely like it."
"A gift?"
Victoria stood up as well. She glanced at Jordan and said,
"Jordan, continue drinking. Rest at the Immortal Lake tonight. You can leave tomorrow morning."
Jordan nodded. "Sure."
Jordan could tell from Victoria's eyes that she seemed to be sending a message. It was as if she was saying, "Don't leave tonight. I have something to tell you."
After Randall and Victoria left, the other mutants also left.
At this moment, Salvatore asked, "Mr. Jordan, do you think what Randall said is true? That the Moon Maiden is really Randall's ex-girlfriend?"
Dragon was the first to express his opinion. "I think it might be true. Everyone, think back. When we crossed over to the past Immortal Lake, we met the Moon Maiden. As a golden mutant, she had the ability to stop us from entering the Immortal Lake to obtain power. However, she did not do so. Instead, she flew away.
"Salvatore and I definitely don't have the right to keep the Moon Maiden away from the Immortal Lake. It must be because of Mr. Jordan's identity. She knew that Mr. Jordan was Randall's nephew, so she let him enter the Immortal Lake to obtain his ability."
Jordan nodded as well. Dragon's speculation made sense logically.
However, Rong Bingshao drank a glass of wine and put it down heavily. "Impossible! Randall can't be the Moon Fairy's lover. Impossible!"
Salvatore said, "Rong Bingshao, we all know that you have a crush on the Moon Maiden and don't want to accept this fact, right? Let me ask you, if the Moon
Maiden isn't doing this for Randall's sake, why did she let us enter the Immortal Lake?"
Rong Bingshao looked at Jordan and said, "I once mentioned the name Randall in front of the Moon Goddess. When she told me that Randall was not a golden mutant, her expression did not change at all. She did not look like she had a boyfriend like him at all!
"Jordan, after I was killed by you last time, I've been reading Chinese books, such as I Ching, Illustrations of the gods, and so on. I'm pretty good at reading people now!"
