Chapter 786: You’re Just Sending Yourself to Death
Obadiah sighed inwardly. Seeing two consecutive heads of individuals in the late Golden Core stage being killed by his older brother and father, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret.
But now was not the time to dwell on that!
What they needed to do next was to kill Lachlan.
Surely, this head would be his?
At this moment, with the absorption of Azure Wolf’s blood essence, Barret’s aura suddenly surged. His cold eyes locked onto Lachlan, his face devoid of the previous sincerity and instead filled with a hint of darkness and murderous intent.
Lachlan stared back sharply, his voice deep and questioning, “Barret, what do you mean by this? Wasn’t it agreed that this head was mine?”
Upon hearing this, Barret sneered mockingly, “Lachlan, who said it was agreed? I can tell you now, not only is Azure Wolf’s head mine, but yours… as well!”
As the words fell, Lachlan’s eyes narrowed. “Do you want to kill me? We made a blood pact, didn’t we? What’s the point of killing me? And besides, I saved Thelma and the members of your Frigid Dawn Wandering Cultivators Association. Are you going to repay kindness with enmity?”
Barret’s mocking expression intensified upon hearing this.
Obadiah, on the other hand, couldn’t help but chuckle, looking at Lachlan as if he were a fool. “Lachlan, you believe everything we say? It seems like you’ve just entered the Bloodline Ancient Domain. Blood pacts are just a deception! And as for repaying kindness with enmity…”
“Hahaha… In this Bloodline Ancient Domain, the only things that matter are killing and becoming stronger. Who cares about kindness? Even if you had only saved Thelma and the others, or even saved our lives, we would still kill you!”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Barret and Obadiah spoke, their eyes filled with bloodthirst.
In this Bloodline Ancient Domain, the basest aspects of human nature were magnified infinitely.
Under the effects of killing and absorbing, most people would become ruthless beasts.
Repaying kindness with enmity was simply insignificant.
Killing Lachlan would enhance their own strength. Even without the feud between Aidyn and Lachlan, the Neal family father and son would still harbor malicious intentions towards Lachlan.
“Good! It’s good that you don’t believe in repaying kindness!”
“But, do you really think you can kill me?”
Upon hearing this, Lachlan nodded, his face calm as he asked, “Indeed, what do you mean by that?”
Sure enough, blood pacts were just nonsense!
Lachlan had already suspected this before: If the effect of killing and absorbing were nullified by drinking another person’s blood, what would happen if his opponent’s blood accidentally entered his mouth during a battle?
Now it seemed that it was all just a trick to deceive himself.
However, what caught Lachlan off guard was how naturally the Neal family father and son turned against him.
This ignited a strong anger within him.
“Lachlan, do you think this is Broken Pulse Sect? Even though it might be a bit troublesome for my father and Obadiah to kill you, what about me?”
Just as Aidyn’s voice, filled with coldness, rang out, Lachlan turned to see Aidyn standing behind him.
Aidyn removed his human disguise, revealing his true face.
Seeing Aidyn, Lachlan was momentarily stunned. “It’s you?”
Lachlan immediately understood why Obadiah seemed familiar to him before.
So, this Frigid Dawn Wandering Cultivators Association belonged to Ryan’s family?
At that moment, Lachlan could understand why Barret so casually sought revenge.
Birds of a feather flock together!
Aidyn could betray Fiona’s father and secretly harm his long-time good brother. It was evident of the character of their whole family.
Moreover, this was the Bloodline Ancient Domain, a place that could infinitely amplify the basest aspects of human nature.
“Yes, it’s me! Of course, during the initiation assessment at Broken Pulse Sect, you were everywhere supporting that little girl from the Morrison family against my son, Ryan. Today, you’ve encountered me after leaving Broken Pulse Sect. Consider yourself unlucky! I willkill you on behalf of my son to prevent you from using your relationship with Sullivan and Kyrie to target my son in Broken Pulse Sect!”
Aidyn gritted his teeth and spoke with hatred.
Aidyn knew that Lachlan’s strength had already reached the Golden Core Realm during the initiation assessment at Broken Pulse Sect. Now, he had even advanced to the late Golden Core stage.
It had to be said that the speed at which this kid increased his strength was astonishing.
But it didn’t matter. Aidyn’s own speed in becoming stronger within the Bloodline Ancient Domain was even more shocking.
Especially now, after just breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, Aidyn’s confidence soared.
He believed that even without Barret and Obadiah, he could still kill Lachlan.
“Ryan? Hahaha…”
A smirk appeared on Lachlan’s face as he shook his head and laughed.
“Hmm? What do you mean by that? What happened to my son, Ryan?”
For some reason, seeing Lachlan’s expression, Aidyn felt a sense of unease.
“You don’t know yet, do you? Your son is already dead!”
Lachlan said coldly.
“What did you say? That’s impossible! How could Ryan be dead? You’re talking nonsense!”
Aidyn’s face changed, his anger roaring as he shouted.
“What I kill is never impossible,” Lachlan said with an evil smile.
“Lachlan, you’re asking for death!” Aidyn’s face twisted with a fierce expression as he charged at Lachlan with a menacing aura.
“Hehe, in such a hurry to meet your son? I’ll grant your wish!” Despite Aidyn’s overwhelming momentum, Lachlan remained unfazed.
As for Barret and Obadiah on the other side, Lachlan seemed to completely ignore their presence.
Clang!
In the next instant, Lachlan’s metallic staff collided with Aidyn’s longsword, creating a crisp sound. Surprisingly, the two seemed evenly matched. Lachlan still concealed his true strength, using only twenty percent of his physical power, and it appeared to be a draw against Aidyn.
Being in the Bloodline ancient domain, Lachlan had no intention of revealing his true combat prowess unless it was a matter of life and death.
Aidyn’s face immediately stiffened, showing a mix of surprise and uncertainty. He hadn’t expected that Lachlan, who had previously fought Azure Wolf to a draw, would still be evenly matched against him, now that his strength had reached the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, it seemed as if the injury on Lachlan’s shoulder had no effect at all.
If Aidyn knew Lachlan’s true strength, one could only imagine the extent of his shock.
“Dad. Obadiah, let’s surround and kill him! The spoils are yours!” Aidyn realized that Lachlan was more formidable than he had anticipated and called out to Barret and Obadiah.
Barret and Obadiah exchanged glances, nodded, and simultaneously launched their attacks against Lachlan, joining Aidyn in encircling him.
The three of them made a show of attacking Lachlan together.
“Surround and kill me? You can only call it a surround and kill if you can actually kill me! What you’re doing is merely delivering your own heads!” Lachlan sneered.
His left shoulder muscles trembled, and a surge of energy erupted. He directly sent the dog-legged blade embedded in his flesh flying away. Then, he fiercely confronted the three of them!
