Chapter 226 Who Does he Care about the Most?
The two masters clashed with lightning speed!
Half a minute later...
Emerson lay on the ground, spitting out blood and glaring at Giovanni in anger.
"I never thought that your strength would improve after leaving the mountain. Too bad it's still farfrom enough!"
"What's your relationship with Lachlan? Why are you helping him?" Giovanni sneered down atEmerson.
He didn't expect that Emerson, who had been stuck in the late stage of Dark Force for many yearsat the mountain, had now broken through to the early stage of Transmutation Force. But comparedto him, a Half-Step Grandmaster in Transmutation Force peak state, he was clearly not goodenough.
"Bastard!"
"As long as I have breath left in me, I won't let you go inside!"
Emerson gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up again from the ground. He stood betweenGiovanni and Anthony once more.
"Brother, if he wants to die so badly then let him have his wish," Anthony coldly snorted.
"Good!" A fierce look appeared in Giovanni's eyes as well.
Emerson roared and charged forward while Giovanni cursed "You're asking for it." He kicked outfiercely with all his power this time! The strength of a Half-Step Grandmaster exploded fully!
With a bang sound like an explosion, Emerson flew back like a sack breaking open mid-air beforefalling heavily onto the ground. Blood sprayed wildly from his mouth!
After struggling for several times on landing, he finally lay flat on his stomach there. Blood mixedwith internal organs spilled continuously from his mouth; all five viscera were shattered beyondrecognition!
"Hmph!"
Giovanni sneered disdainfully before kicking apart the glass door of living room and rushing intovilla together with Anthony.
Two minutes later they had searched everywhere but returned back to living room empty handed.
"No one? Lachlan isn't here?" Anthony frowned.
Giovanni stood there blinking rapidly before suddenly looking sternly serious.
"If no one is here, then why did Emerson fight so hard?"
"Not right..."
With that, he suddenly glanced towards the guest bedroom on the first floor.
Bang!
A resounding noise echoed as he kicked the door of the guest room into pieces! Upon entering, aquick scan revealed that the room was still empty. Just as the two were about to carefully inspectother rooms, they faintly heard some commotion.
"Uh... uh!"
At this moment, Nora and Lina were hiding under the bed. When the door was kicked open, Norawas almost scared enough to scream, but Lina quickly covered her little mouth.
The two widened their eyes, filled with tension and fear. However, the next second, from theirposition under the bed, they helplessly watched a pair of feet approaching. Following that, a facewith a mocking smile appeared under the bed.
"Little brat from the Lachlan family? Come out!" Anthony grinned menacingly.
...
In Jieyson, Kreanford!
At that time, Lachlan had just walked out of the airport exit. He was eager to return home as soonas possible. However, his phone suddenly rang.
When he saw who was calling him, Lachlan's face lit up with an indulgent smile. He answered andscolded gently, "Nora, why aren't you sleeping yet? Are you being good?"
The number on his phone was Nora's communication watch number. Lachlan thought that she knewhe would be coming back tonight so she had been waiting for him without going to sleep yet.
"Tsk tsk... What an affectionate father!"
However, just as he finished speaking those words, there came a sharp voice from the other end ofthe line. It sounded neither male nor female but obviously had undergone some sort of voicemodulation!
Hearing this voice made Lachlan's face change instantly and his whole body tremble in shock.
"Who are you?" he asked in alarm.
"You don't need to know who I am! All you need to know is that your daughter is in my hands. If youdon't want her dead, then tell me where you are?"
The person on the other end sneered before shouting coldly, "Little pup come talk to your daddy!"
But then it became silent on the other end.
Just when Lachlan began feeling suspicious about what was happening, there came an angry voicefrom over there, "Damn it! You're not going to say anything huh?"
Following that were sounds like someone choking or struggling while trying not make any noise atall.
It was clearly Nora trying hard not cry out even though she must have been in pain!
In an instant, Lachlan felt like his heart had been squeezed by someone else's hand!
Although Nora was young, she understood everything well enough already.
She knew at this moment bad people wanted to harm her dad so she desperately tried holding backany sound or movement so they wouldn't hurt him too much...
Lachlan shouted into phone anxiously, "Stop messing around asshole! As long as my child isn'tharmed, we can talk about anything else!"
Nora had Emerson protecting her side but still fell into bad guys' hands?
Was it because Emerson didn't fulfill his responsibility or because their opponent was too powerfuleven for Emerson?
With regards to his daughter's safety, Lachlan couldn't afford enraging whoever held Nora hostageright now…
"Cut the crap. Where are you?" the person asked coldly.
"I'm in Kreanford! What do you want? Speak up!" Lachlan responded.
"Then you come back to Edoland right away. I'll be waiting for you at the abandoned chemicalfactory in the south suburbs. Remember, come alone. My people will be watching along the way. If Icatch you playing any tricks, I'll kill your daughter immediately! Hurry up, my patience is limited!"The person said.
"Okay! Okay! I'll go back right away!"
"What about Emerson? What did you do to him?" Lachlan agreed repeatedly and then askedsuspiciously.
"Emerson? He's dead now? Hahaha..." The other person laughed a few times with a tone full ofmockery and disdain.
"You're Isa's man, aren't you?" Hearing this question, Lachlan's tone became stern as he tried toprobe.
Someone was plotting against him so meticulously and had even hired an expert who could takedown Emerson. Lachlan's first reaction was Isa.
Snap!
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the other party hung up directly on him.
Lachlan's face turned iron blue at this moment.
After Tiger and his son, now someone else targeted Nora, trying to use his daughter against him. InLachlan's heart, besides extreme worry and tension, there was also a surge of anger andmurderous intent.
"Isa! Is it really you?" Lachlan muttered frighteningly under his breath before dialing a phonenumber directly without hesitation
"Mr. Willis, have landed already? You're fast enough haha..." The other party picked up immediatelywith some noise in the background indicating that Orion should still be out having fun after eatingand drinking enough outside somewhere else.
"Orion, you're from Kreanford right? Do you know Isa from the Austine family?"novelbin
At this point, Lachlan didn't have time or mood for small talk with Orion. He went straight into askingwhat he needed answers for.
Orion paused for a moment before walking out of the KTV box room onto the corridor outside. "Isafrom 'the Austin family'? I know that guy but not too well. What happened, Mr. Willis?"
Isa acted extremely arrogantly, and caused quite a stir among Kreanford's prince circles. He hadsome reputation. Orion didn't have much contact with him, but had heard of this person before.
"Do you know who Isa cares about most?" Lachlan gritted his teeth, coldly asking.
