Chapter 910: Maximus’s Obsession
“Michael, you say the family’s calamity is closer?
Could it possibly come earlier? Wasn’t it said to be five years later?”
Maximus asked, his voice filled with uncertainty and suspicion.
The core members of the Ancient Willis family and the Powerful Clan Guardians present all looked equally alarmed.
“Indeed! Now, I’m afraid that within a year, our Ancient Willis family will face a catastrophic disaster.
If we are not careful, we could be annihilated!
Perhaps, I miscalculated?”
Michael said, his pupils contracting.
“It must be wrong! The Ancient Willis family is so powerful, even if Ebenezer has fallen, we still have five Powerful Fragmented Void experts guarding the family.
Who could bring us such a disaster?”
A Powerful Clan Guardian, whose status was no less than Michael’s, immediately voiced his doubts.
“Could it be the Orderwarden organization?”
Someone couldn’t help but speculate.
“It must be the Orderwarden organization! Otherwise, even the strongest Ancient Sects like the Kunlun Divine Mountains couldn’t possibly destroy the Willis family!”
“No, it’s because of that inheritor Lachlan, isn’t it? In that case, we must not provoke him until he reaches Fragmentation Void!”
“The only ones who could bring such a disaster to our Ancient Willis family are the Orderwarden organization!”
“…”
Everyone began analyzing the situation, each offering their own opinions.
Michael’s prediction inevitably caused a wave of panic and unrest.
“Can we no longer touch that traitor’s descendants?”
Maximus’s eyes narrowed slightly, his face full of resentment and coldness.
After dismissing everyone, a figure silently appeared beside him.
Maximus had four trusted aides: Shadow Dread, Azure Ghost, White Demon, and Azure Abyss!
Shadow Dread had previously died at the hands of two experts from the Ancient Wynter Family, and White Demon had been killed by Violet.
Now, only Azure Ghost and Azure Abyss remained.
Azure Ghost, being at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, was no longer able to deal with Lachlan.
At this moment, the figure appearing before Maximus was none other than Azure Abyss, the strongest among his four trusted aides!
This Azure Abyss turned out to be a young and beautiful woman.
However, her eyes were chilling to look at, making one feel as if they had fallen into an icy abyss.
Her eyes were completely black, like two black holes that seemed capable of absorbing one’s soul.
Although Azure Abyss was only at the Mid-stage Hollow Void level, she possessed an extremely mysterious Heaven and Earth’s Rule: the Law of Nihility.
This law didn’t significantly enhance her combat abilities but granted her a very extraordinary divine ability: Exile!
Though different from spatial laws, after Azure Abyss used her “Exile” ability, she could create a temporary space.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Once she pulled her target into this exile space, nothing happening inside could be detected by the outside world.
In other words, in this world, both Azure Abyss and anyone pulled into the exile space would effectively disappear.
Even the Orderwarden organization wouldn’t be able to figure out what happened.
As Azure Abyss appeared, another person emerged from a nearby room.
It was one of the elders of the Reclusive Willis family, Elder of the Wicked Bone!
One of Maximus’s lackeys.
“Elder of the Wicked Bone, it’s time for Lachlan’s parents to be useful!”
“You and Azure Abyss should go to Lucoork West!”
“In addition, Clive Wills and Master Colin will accompany you!”
“This time, I don’t believe Lachlan can escape!”
“Unless he can remain indifferent upon hearing news about his parents and resist going to Cloud Sea Mountain Base!”
Maximus’s eyes gleamed with cruelty, malice, and greed.
The jade pendant inheritance was something he had to obtain; it had become an obsession for Maximus.
He would stop at nothing to achieve it, even if it meant taking extreme risks!
Of course, being as cunning as a snake, he would also make thorough preparations.
“The Ancient Willis family will face a catastrophic disaster within a year?
A glimmer of hope hidden within the ominous signs?
You think avoiding Lachlan and not provoking the Orderwarden organization is that glimmer of hope?
In my view, perhaps obtaining Lachlan’s inheritance is that glimmer of hope!”
Maximus thought to himself, his eyes flashing with cold light.
Meanwhile, on the other side!
Inside Broken Pulse Sect!
Sullivan was sweating profusely, his expression complex.
“Who would have thought that this Lachlan would become the Seed of the Star Path. Moreover, he possesses strength capable of crushing Late-stage Hollow Void experts.”
“Haha, as his former master, I’m probably no match for him now.”
Sullivan laughed self-deprecatingly.
Lachlan’s duel with Leland in the final martial arena had been noticed by many Ancient Sects.
Naturally, Broken Pulse Sect had also learned about it.
Present in the room were not only Ernie, the head of Broken Pulse Sect but also a man in white robes.
The man appeared handsome and elegant like a young gentleman but his full head of white hair and deep-set eyes indicated he was far from young.
Ernie, an Early-stage Fragmented Void expert and head of a sect, did not sit in the main seat but instead gave it up to this man in white robes.
“Yes! Obtaining that inheritance has indeed made a significant difference!
For now, do not provoke Lachlan. The Orderwarden organization is not something our Broken Pulse Sect can contend with yet.
At least until we obtain Dudrar Dragon’s bones, do not provoke the Orderwarden organization.”
The man in white robes said.
“Understood!”
Ernie and Sullivan replied respectfully.
As they spoke, Ernie’s tone shifted as he asked the man in white robes: “Ebenezer of the Ancient Willis family has fallen.
Should we take action against the Ancient Willis family…”
At this point, Ernie’s eyes flashed with cold light.
Hearing this, the man in white robes shook his head: “No rush! In another three to five years, several elders of the Ancient Willis family will reach their end and more Powerful Fragmented Void experts will die.
While we are determined to obtain Dudrar Dragon’s bones, there is no need to hurry!
We can act then!”
