Jay fell into slight hesitation.
There would be many dangers befalling them on the way to Sacred Land. Whether or not this Winter woman was an enemy or a friend, it seemed a little too arbitrary if they were to draw a conclusion based solely on her current performance.
Jay was not the only person who thought so. Cole, who was naturally suspicious and cautious of others, also thought of this.
Baby Zetty seemed to have seen through their concerns and sighed sorrowfully.
She staggered in front of Jay and said, "Don't worry, Mister. I'm not the same kind of person as this Poison Granny. Please have faith in me as in this whole world, only I can save them.”
Jay cautiously asked, "Lady Winter, can you tell me how you're planning to save them?”
When Baby Zetty was about to open her mouth, she noticed Poison Grandma pricking up her ears and leaning over.
Baby Zetty said, "Give me a moment."
She walked over to Poison Granny and pricked one of her silver needles into her, making her lose
consciousness almost instantly.
Poison Granny’s granddaughter exclaimed, "What did you do to my gran-gran?!”
Baby Zetty explained, "Our family's medical skills are secret techniques that can't be heard by strangers. I'm temporarily stopping your body's functions from working.”
Once Baby Zetty said this, she made the young girl lose consciousness as well.
Jay looked at Baby Zetty and was simply amazed by her incredible techniques. However, he still doubted Baby Zetty's identity.
"Why don't you look like an ordinary quack doctor, Lady Winter?" Jay tentatively asked.
Baby Zetty said, "Mister, you must never make a comment about a hero's origin. Your child is afflicted with witch poison. If we fail to keep it under control, her future will be bleak. However, I'm the person who’s willing to save them both so just think of me as your last resort."
Cole replied to her, "That's not necessary. Once we reach Sacred Land and locate Mr. Boye, she'll cure this poison for us."
Jay took the packets of medicine and said, "Thank you."
Baby Zetty smiled and replied, "There's no need."
Just like that, the two teams set off in tandem.
Jay and the others kept themselves a few hundred meters away from Baby Zetty.
Gale was extremely angry about this and scoffed." Why are they doing this? We saved them yet they're still so defensive against us?"
Baby Zetty said sorrowfully, "They're taking extra precautions after getting backstabbed before, so I can understand why they're doing this."
Jay was not an ungrateful person either. He would occasionally look back to see the two's whereabouts, even offering them water and food.
Baby Zetty had always felt that her daddy was a warm person with a cold appearance.
