Chapter 279
‘The sales associate regained clarity the moment Kayson pulled out the ball of mind power left in her.
She stared at the black globule of energy on Kayson‘s needle in disbelief and asked, “ What is this?”
She could not move but she could hear and see.
“The medium the culprit left in you to control you.” Kayson produced a porcelain vial and put the energy
in with a wooden cork that had a rune on it.
Even though the sales associate found it absurd, she believed it now. There was really something as
bizarre in this world!
Shyla went up to her with a soft smile. “Don‘t be scared. What‘s your name?”
“I–I‘m Waverly Faber.” “I‘m Shyla Tinsley, and this is my sister, Cecile Redcliff, and my boyfriend, Kayson
Yarde.” Kayson glanced at Shyla as she said that, but the latter seemed unfazed. She was not looking at

“No, I‘ve been working basically every day,” Waverly answered.
Kayson walked to the side to retrieve a pen and a piece of paper, wrote a prescription, and then passed
it to Waverly.
“Get the herbs on this prescription. As a regular person, being controlled by mind expansion will harm
you. “These are nourishing and adjusting herbs. Have them until you‘re physically and mentally fine.”
Waverly accepted the prescription Kayson gave her and thanked him.
After Kayson got what he needed from Waverly, he left with the two girls.
“Kayson, what do we do next?” Shyla still did not understand why someone would want to poison her
and Cecile. Kayson‘s tone was determined when he answered, “We find the culprit.”
Shyla chuckled wryly. “How? It‘s like finding a needle in a haystack.”
The Tinsleys were influential, but this was not their territory. It might be easy to find a regular person, but
searching for an expert who had poisoned them so far from their home turf would be a challenge.
“I have my ways. I‘m not letting the culprit off the hook when he dared to poison you both.”
The culprit had to be a grandmaster–level fighter. Their mind expansion power was not strong, but
Kayson could feel a domineering vibe laced within it.
He had planned to let the girls go home first, but upon further consideration, he kept them around him
lest they were ambushed again. He took them to a quiet park, and just as he
opened the vial trapping the black ball of energy, the rune stuck on the cork was burned out of thin air
The ashes and the globule of energy were combined into one as they floated away in a particular
direction.
Cecile‘s eyes widened as she asked curiously, “Kayson, are you performing a magic trick?”
Kayson chortled. “It‘s not magic, Cecile. It‘s a tracking technique of the philosophy branch.”

Kayson replied with a smile as he walked, “A little. It’s what my mentor taught me “My mentor knows a lot
of things and has taught me all of them since I was young, regardless of whether I was able to learn it or
not.”
Cecile sighed. “Your mentor must be like an immortal if you‘re already this amazing!”
“I have no idea. I barely see him as it is.”
The black globule of energy led Kayson and the girls down the road. A few hours later, the three of them
reached the suburbs, where a manor was located.
Kayson took a look and commented, “Seems like he‘s a rich guy.” Shyla nodded and walked toward the
gate.
