Chapter 791 Can’t Leave
As Lachlan’s words fell, Thelma, who was begging for mercy on the ground, was dumbfounded.
Yes! What did she have that was worth the other party’s scheming?
The pride in her appearance, which she always cherished, had no attraction for him.
“You bastard! You’ll never… ” Thelma realized that there was no hope for mercy. The pitiful look that was on her face a second ago was replaced with an intense resentment and madness.
As she opened her mouth, she seemed to want to bite Lachlan, as if she wanted to make him pay a price before her death!
However, at that moment, there was a flash of the blade.
Thelma’s head rolled off like a ball, and a beautiful crimson spray erupted from her neck.
Behind her, Dragonwake held a bloodstained knife, his face filled with a hint of ruthlessness.
“Damn it, this bitch still wants to harm Mr. Willis and courting death!”
With that, he clasped his fists in front of Lachlan, then said to Emerson, Noah, and the others, “It’s all my fault! I need to change my bad habit of being attracted to women, I almost got Mr. Willis hurt because of this bitch!
Mr. Lee, Akuan, please don’t be mad at me!”
It has to be said that Dragonwake, as the second in command, was also a decisive and ruthless person.
He had just let Thelma take the lead a moment ago, but when he saw Emerson and Noah’s attitude towards Lachlan, he unhesitatingly killed Thelma.
“It’s okay! It was all a misunderstanding!” Emerson looked at Lachlan and, seeing him shake his head indifferently, smiled and said to Dragonwake.
Noah went over to hug Dragonwake’s shoulder and introduced him, “Dragonwake, let me introduce you, this is my boss, Lachlan!”
At these words, Dragonwake showed a hint of warmth on his face and smiled at Lachlan, saying, “So you’re Mr. Willis! Mr. Lee and Noah never mentioned you to me before.
I’ve offended you before, Mr. Willis, please don’t be angry!
I’m a rough person, hahaha…”
Lachlan glanced at Thelma’s body and shook his head nonchalantly, “It’s okay! It’s just a misunderstanding.”
“Boss! Let me introduce you, this is Dragonwake, the leader of the Awakening Dragon Mercenary Corps, and now the second in command here!
Before, when I and Dagger were still mercenaries, we cooperated with Dragonwake a few times.
We fought together, and have entrusted each other with our lives!
This guy is good at everything, except that he can’t stay away from women!
Boss, don’t be like him! Hahaha…”
Noah explained to Lachlan as he and Dragonwake walked together, laughing.
Naturally, Lachlan wouldn’t say anything, and he casually let the matter pass.
At this moment, Dragonwake observed carefully and couldn’t help but murmur to himself.
As someone with a strength comparable to that of a late Nascent Soul, he could tell that Lachlan’s strength was equivalent to that of an early Nascent Soul.
In fact, this level of strength was not considered particularly strong within the Awakening Dragon Mercenary Corps!
Emerson, Noah, Dagger, and others now had strengths that were one or even two small levels higher than Lachlan.
Yet, they showed such great respect for Lachlan.
Calling him “boss” and “master”…
This actually made Dragonwake somewhat skeptical.
At the same time, he felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
Now, the Awakening Dragon Mercenary Corps was completely out of his control!
…
In the ancient castle where the mercenaries were stationed, in a certain underground secret room.
Lachlan met with Emerson, Noah, and Dagger alone.
After catching up with each other, Lachlan asked the question that was on his mind, “I was worried that you all might have died here, but I didn’t expect you to all have done so well.
Haha, you all have strengths comparable to a late Nascent Soul?”
As his words dropped, Emerson shook his head respectfully and humbly, “Thanks to you, Master. If it hadn’t been for your influence, we wouldn’t have achieved such strength. We wouldn’t have been able to establish ourselves in the Bloodline Ancient Domain and even survive until now!”
“Yes! Yes! It’s all thanks to you, Master, hahaha…” Noah chimed in.
Dagger nodded in agreement.
After twisting and turning, but still laying it on thick! Although the three of them were now powerful, they didn’t dare to be arrogant in front of Lachlan.
They had witnessed Lachlan’s strength and capabilities and knew that even if Lachlan’s strength was temporarily inferior to theirs, they couldn’t guess his various means.
Moreover, Emerson’s words were also true!
Before this, they had obtained various cultivation resources provided by Lachlan, and even excellent techniques tailored for them, which had enabled them to make rapid progress.
Before entering the Bloodline Ancient Domain, Emerson’s strength had already reached the late Uppecia stage!
Noah and Dagger also had strengths equivalent to the mid Uppecia stage.
The other brothers in the “Lachie Fire” Security Group were at least at the peak of the Qi Refinement later stage, or above the Grandmaster realm.
It can be imagined that with their “initial strength,” entering the Bloodline Ancient Domain meant that they were a very formidable force.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Only then could they gradually accumulate strength and establish a foothold there.
So, it wasn’t excessive to say that they owed everything to Lachlan.
“We’re all on the same side, don’t bother with the flattery!” Lachlan laughed and punched Noah, then changed his tone and asked Emerson, “By the way, how did you become the leader of the Awakening Dragon Mercenary Corps?”
Emerson smiled and explained to Lachlan.
Originally, the leader of the Awakening Dragon Mercenary Corps was Dragonwake.
But after being in the Bloodline Ancient Domain for so long, the strongest backbone of this mercenary group had long become part of the “Lachie Fire” Security Group.
Strength is power!
As a result, Emerson naturally became the leader of their faction.
At least during the time they were in the Bloodline Ancient Domain.
It was also because of Dragonwake’s close relationship with Noah and the others, and this time it was them who brought “Lachie Fire” Security Group over, so it was still announced to the outside as the Awakening Dragon Mercenary Corps.
Otherwise, they would have already changed the name to “Lachie Fire” Security Group long ago.
After hearing this, Lachlan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
So that’s why he couldn’t find anyone from the “Lachie Fire” Security Group.
It turned out that, during their time in the Bloodline Ancient Domain, they hadn’t used the name of their own security company.
Next, Emerson and the others couldn’t help but ask how Lachlan entered the Bloodline Ancient Domain.
Lachlan explained simply: coming here to find the Celestial Heart, the treasure, was one reason, and the other reason was to find out what had happened to them.
Hearing this, Emerson and the others couldn’t help but sigh and their expressions showed a hint of seriousness and concern.
“Master, for us, you took such risks!
Ah…
To be honest, although the Bloodline Ancient Domain can enhance our strength through killing, it is also a cage.
We also thought about leaving, but we just can’t get out!”
