Chapter 573 Dad Is Useless
Chapter 573 Dad is Useless
Watching Silas leave, Kyrie didn't pursue him.
The two of them were evenly matched, and even if he caught up with him for a moment, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
He arrived at Lachlan's location and happened to witness Lachlan ruthlessly attacking, carrying an overwhelming hatred. With one swift stroke, Lachlan slashed Kevin's throat. Even Kyrie could see that Kevin's soul... had been swallowed and absorbed by Lachlan.
This caused a hint of surprise to flash through the eyes of the great witch doctor as he deeply looked at his "sworn brother."
In his heart, he couldn't help but feel that Lachlan seemed... too ruthless.
"Big brother! Thank you so much."
At this moment, Lachlan took a deep breath and respectfully gestured towards Kyrie.
His eyes were slightly bloodshot, and his face was filled with unwillingness.
"Wicked Bone escaped, and today, I couldn't avenge my parents. It fills me with negative emotions."
Unable to kill Wicked Bone, he killed Kevin in a fit of rage and allowed the Dragon Ancestor to absorb his soul, considering it as reclaiming some interest from Wicked Bone's loved ones. Kyrie waved his hand at Lachlan and, in the next second, went over to pick up Nora. "Nora, you see me again. Did I scare you?"
Nora blinked her eyes a few times and shook her head. "No! I'm strong."
"You're such a good girl!"
Kyrie smiled and then asked Nora in a gentle voice, "So, do you want to stay with me from now on?"
Upon hearing this, Nora shook her head vigorously. "No way! I want to stay with Daddy."
Kyrie burst into laughter and stopped teasing Nora.
However, he looked at Lachlan with a serious expression and pulled him aside, speaking in a low voice. "Lachlan, what are your plans for the future?"
"Big brother, what do you mean?" Lachlan raised an eyebrow, sensing that Kyrie had something more to say.
Kyrie's face bore a worried expression, as if he was concerned on Lachlan's behalf.
"Lachlan, after this incident, news of you obtaining the inheritance will surely spread. The hidden Willis family, including the ancient Willis family behind them, will definitely not let you go. With your current strength, forget about confronting the ancient Willis family, even the hidden Willis family can easily overpower you. Have you thought about how to deal with this?"
As Kyrie finished speaking, a shade of gloom passed through the depths of Lachlan's eyes, and his brows furrowed tightly.
The issue Kyrie mentioned was also Lachlan's greatest concern. Facing a Nascent Soul expert now would result in being crushed. The ancient Willis family was still an unreachable behemoth for him. The words of Wicked Bone before fleeing seemed to echo in his ears.
The fact that he obtained the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant inheritance would inevitably become known, and there would be no way to conceal it anymore.
Lachlan took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on Kyrie as he asked, "Big brother, by asking this, do you have a way to help me?"
Kyrie held Nora in his arms and nodded. "There is a way, but it depends on whether you're willing or not."
"Please tell me, big brother. I am deeply grateful," Lachlan replied with a serious tone.
Kyrie said, "The ancient Willis family
is one of the most powerful forces at the ancient level. However, there are other sects and families that can

Moreover, we, the Broken Pulse Sect, have been in conflict with the ancient Willis family for a long time. As the saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. Lachlan, why don't you... join the Broken Pulse Sect?"
contend with them! Set
Upon hearing this, Lachlan's expression changed several times, and finally, he asked in a deep voice, "Broken Pulse Sect?"
As he spoke, his tone shifted, and his eyes carried a sharpness as he asked, "So, big brother, if I join the Broken Pulse Sect, or if the Broken Pulse Sect is willing to protect me, what do I need to give in return?"
Lachlan saw through it!
Whether Kyrie had a genuine bond with him and truly wanted to help him was uncertain.
But the ancient force behind him had no personal connection to Lachlan.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
If he wanted to rely on them, he would probably have to pay some price, right?
Kyrie pondered for a few seconds and said in a deep voice, "Lachlan, let me be frank with you. In essence, what the Broken Pulse Sect values is the inheritance you obtained. The condition for joining the Broken Pulse Sect is that you are willing to share the inheritance and swear allegiance to the sect, becoming a member of the Broken Pulse Sect."
Upon hearing this, Lachlan furrowed his brows and stood there in silence, weighing his options in his heart.
"Lachlan, I believe this is the only path for you. Otherwise, once you fall into the hands of the ancient Willis family, think about the consequences," Kyrie continued, lowering his voice and even using true energy to isolate their conversation from others.
He blinked at Lachlan and said,
"Lachlan, why not consider agreeing to the condition of sharing the inheritance? After all, only you know how much of it you will share in your mind, right? In

Sect. Lachlan, think it over. I won't

Hearing Kyrie's words, Lachlan's heart fluctuated for a moment. He looked at this "benefactor" and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Kyrie's words carried a sense of openness and sincerity. It seemed like he was standing by Lachlan's side, considering his interests completely. This touched Lachlan, and he felt that this sworn brother was quite considerate.
"Big brother, what you said makes sense. Joining the Broken Pulse Sect might indeed be my only way out. However... I have one thing to take care of first. Once it's done, I will head to the Broken Pulse Sect," Lachlan said in a deep voice after contemplating for a long time.
Before this, Lachlan asked with a hint of hesitation, "Before that, can I trouble you to take care of Nora for me? Let my daughter stay with you for now..."
Thinking about Kyrie's interaction with Nora just now, Lachlan realized that he might not have been joking around. Kyrie nodded and smiled as he held Nora, "Of course! As long as this little one is willing." Lachlan let out a sigh and looked at Nora with a mix of reluctance and deliberation. This time, Nora pursed her lips and met her father's gaze. But instead of crying or making a fuss like before, she nodded very obediently and said, "Daddy, I will listen to you."
Lachlan's heartstrings trembled, feeling both relieved and heartbroken.
Although Nora was only five years old, she had experienced so much. These experiences made her more mature than most teenagers. But the fact that she was so understanding only made Lachlan feel more guilty and heartbroken.
My precious, it's Daddy's fault! One day, Daddy will make sure you can truly live freely and without worries! Keep on living!
