Chapter 243 It's Time to Repay the Debt
Lachlan sneered at her words. "So, you're saying that the curse can be lifted even without theDragon-shaped Jade Pendant?"
Last time, this woman had fooled him into believing that the pendant could suppress the curse.
Was she telling the truth this time?
"I... I'm not afraid of you torturing me. Everything I've told you is true!" Summer's eyes flickered asshe spoke.
Lachlan asked her how to find the ancient Willis family.
"I don't know! Our hidden branch of the Willis family is just a collateral branch. Only our patriarchand a few core members can find where the ancient Willis family is located! And I advise you not toprovoke them now! Not that I look down on you, but even our collateral branch can easily wipe youout!" Summer said with a sneer.
Lachlan's face grew dark as he nodded and stared at her with a hint of menace in his eyes.
Summer shuddered as she felt his killing intent emanating from him. Was this man going to kill her?
"Since your family is just a collateral branch of the ancient Willis family and works for them, if I don'tkill you, are you going to inform them about my whereabouts? Are they going to send someone overhere and eliminate me as their 'traitor'?" Lachlan said coldly.
"No! I won't tell anyone anything about your situation or whereabouts in my family," Summer repliedquickly.
"But there's still my soul card in my family's possession. If it gets shattered after your killing me,they'll know that someone killed me outside and will send people over here to investigate."
"If you spare my life, I promise not to reveal anything about what happened between us," Summerpleaded urgently. She knew he was capable of killing her without hesitation if necessary.
"Why should I believe what you say?" Lachlan asked skeptically.
"At this point, there's no need for me to hide anything from you anymore." Summer admittedreluctantly. "Your grandfather took away the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant from the ancient Willisfamily, and it is their most precious treasure. Rumor has it that whoever obtains it may gain powerfulinheritance and truly stand at the top of this world. So, I have personal motives too. I also want toget my hands on that Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant. As for your whereabouts, I haven't informedmy family about it, nor will I contact the ancient Willis family. Therefore, you don't need to worryabout me revealing anything."
"I've kept this information hidden. If my family, even the ancient Willis family, were to find out, Iwould have nowhere to go and be treated as a traitor! So, I will definitely keep it a secret! Trust me!"Summer said earnestly.novelbin
Lachlan stared at her intensely as if trying to see through her. His face was constantly changing. Hehesitated on whether or not he should take action.
After a while, he took a deep breath and finally suppressed his urge to kill. "I remember youmentioned last time that you didn't need Heavenly Spirit Jade. But I do! Where can I get it?"
Summer inwardly sneered at the naive Lachlan for being from such a low martial world.
"As a member of the hidden Willis family, of course I can obtain resources from my clan so I don'tneed it! Unless you're willing to come with me and join my clan!"
Upon hearing this, Lachlan frowned and asked, "What else? Do you know where else I can getthese kinds of resources or other cultivation resources rich in spiritual energy?"
The ancient Willis family loomed over Lachlan like an insurmountable mountain before Nora turnedseven years old; he had no choice but to confront them head-on.
Therefore, Lachlan was eager to improve his strength now.
Summer shrugged nonchalantly, "I don't know about other places but there's the Graham family inEdoland! They should have plenty of cultivation resources right? If you have enough money, maybeyou could buy some things from them!"
"Of course if you're strong enough, then maybe try robbing them instead haha..."
As she finished speaking, she showed an amused expression teasing Lachlan.
Lachlan's expression changed slightly upon hearing this and he subconsciously asked, "How strongis the Graham family?"
Summer was taken aback by his question, "You're not really planning on robbing them are you? Asfar as I know, their former patriarch reached Core Formation Realm decades ago but hasn't beenseen since so who knows if he's still alive..."
"The current patriarch along with several guardians and elders are all high-level experts in Uppecialater stage."
"Uh..." Upon hearing this news, Lachlan's face changed again before shrugging helplessly, "Thenlet's just trade with them."
According to the classification of Dragon Soul Immortal Technique in his mind, the nine realms wereEnergy Refinement, Foundation Building (Uppecia), Core Formation, Golden Core, Nascent Soul,
Void Reclusion, Fragmentation Void, Great Vehicle and Tribulation Crossing.
Lachlan had only just entered Uppecia.
Even though the old patriarch of the Graham family who was at Core Formation Realm was nolonger alive, there were still several high-level Uppecia experts who Lachlan couldn't compete with.
Furthermore, as one's strength increased and their cultivation level broke through limits again andagain, their lifespan would also be extended.
Who knows? Maybe that old patriarch at Core Formation Realm was still alive!
I'm still too weak...
"Tsk..." Summer sneered at Lachlan with a look of disdain. Did this guy really have thoughts abouttrying to rob them earlier?
After leaving the hotel, Lachlan sat in the car and calculated in his mind.
Last time at the Graham family auction, he sold the Suppressing Talisman and earned over 35million after deducting the Graham family's commission.
During this period, Emerson helped him sell the Nourishing Essence Pill, and he received over 60million.
Dillon from the Hodge's Wine company, where his old classmate Allison worked, transferred over 5million to him. In addition to that, Philip gave him two sums of money, one of 50 million and anotherof 80 million.
When he added it all up, Lachlan realized that he had so much money now! It was time to convertthese riches into personal strength.
However when he checked his account balance, something felt off - then it hit him: 80 million! Philiphadn't paid back yet! He almost forgot about it!
Lachlan snorted coldly and called Philip right away.
The phone was quickly answered by Philip himself, the CEO of McLaughlin's Constructioncompany.
"Mr. Willis, is there anything you need?" he asked nervously.
Lachlan sneered, "Mr. McLaughlin, you really have a short memory, don't you? Why didn't I letEmerson kill your whole family last time? I'll ask you one question, 80 million. When will you give memy money back?"
Philip laughed bitterly, "Mr. Willis, I'm working on it! I mean, it's not a small amount. You gotta giveme some time. I can't come up with so much cash right away!"
Lachlan let out a "Oh?" and said, "Is that so? How many days has it been already? I won't wasteany more time with you. You have five more days to give me the money, or I'll come knocking onyour door myself!"
With that, Lachlan hung up the phone.
On the other end of the line, Philip looked at his phone with a troubled expression.
"Was that Lachlan? He's still trying to collect his debt from you?"
"That fool doesn't know when to quit," Kristina chimed in next to Philip with a sneer on her face.
