Chapter 218 Broken Picture

Sierra could sense the change in Lachlan's demeanor, and her facecouldn't help but contort. The man who had just approached her with asmug look on his face seemed to have transformed from a mangy doginto a vicious wolf!

"What's gotten into you? Why should I tell you anything?" Sierrafurrowed her brow and coldly retorted.

Bam!

As soon as she finished speaking, Lachlan stomped his foot and madea move towards Sierra.

Sierra's face turned pale, but she quickly formed her fingers intoswords and pointed them towards Lachlan's chest. In that instant, sheunleashed all of the power of Transmutation Force at its initial stage,attacking with incredible speed and ferocity. Even the air around themwhistled as her fingers sliced through it.

However, when faced with Sierra's attack, Lachlan showed a hint ofdisdain in his eyes.

Crack!

With one swift motion, he slapped away Sierra's attack before grabbinghold of her neck with both hands and lifting her off the ground.

"Where did this jade pendant come from?" he demanded. "Tell me!Otherwise I'll make sure you experience what it feels like to beg fordeath!"

Sierra blushed deeply at being held so close by this terrifying man whoshowed no mercy or regard for beauty. She struggled to breathe underhis grip while feeling shocked by his strength. How was it possible forsomeone at Transmutation Force initial stage like herself to be sopowerless against him?

“It... it belonged to someone who passed away," she gasped out finallyafter some hesitation.

Lachlan trembled slightly upon hearing these words; his eyes widenedin disbelief. "What did you say? Someone who passed away?"

"Relic ..."

The next moment, he released Sierra and, with red eyes, demanded,"Speak! Continue speaking! Whose relic is it? Where is that person?"Sierra hesitated for a moment, looking at Lachlan in this state, andsecretly made some guesses in her heart.

"That was eight years ago when I had just passed the sect's test andwent down the mountain for training! Along the way, I encountered adying middle-aged couple. This jade pendant belonged to thatwoman..."

Next, Sierra recounted the events of that year.

The condition of the middle-aged couple was extremely bad, covered ininjuries, and marked with purple patterns all over their bodies.

Sierra brought the two back to the sect, hoping that her master couldsave them. However, a few days later, both the man and the womandied, and they died in extreme agony.

"They died horribly! Those purple marks on their bodies erupted fromthe inside out, and some terrifying bugs even crawled out of them! It'shard to imagine how much pain they must have endured before death.My master said they fell victim to a curse from some ancient martialarts family. This curse was used by that family to punish traitors!" Sierraexplained.

At this moment, Lachlan was trembling violently all over his body. Hegritted his teeth and asked word by word, "Which family? Did yourmaster mention it?" He looked at Sierra with red eyes and said.

“Is it a family called the Willis family from ancient times?"

Upon hearing this, Sierra shook her head and said, “I'm not sure aboutthat. My master is very secretive about it and doesn't say much!"

"Are the man and woman buried in your sect?" Lachlan's voicetrembled slightly as he choked out the question.

"No! My master performed sky burial for them." Sierra shook her headand said.

Sky burial was a traditional burial method in Lucoork West. After aperson died, the body was transported to a designated location to beconsumed by birds and animals.

Upon hearing these words, Lachlan went crazy and let out a loud roaras he charged towards Sierra.

He grabbed Sierra's shoulder and asked, “Sky burial? Why sky burial?Why do you have the right to handle their bodies?"

Sky burial?

Then, wouldn't his parents’ remains be completely gone!

Sierra watched Lachlan, who looked like he was going crazy, and felther heart pounding with fear. She was truly worried that this man mightKill her in a fit of rage.

"Sky burial is the greatest respect for the deceased in our customs! Itrepresents the immortality of the soul and reincarnation!"

“I'm sorry, my master meant well!"

Lachlan stared at Sierra. It seemed like an eternity before he finallyreleased her.

Thud!

He staggered, and his body, as if losing all support, collapsed to theground.

His parents were dead??

How could this be? How could they be dead?

For so many years, Lachlan had clung to a glimmer of hope, eventhough he knew it was already faint. But now, hearing the news fromSierra, it felt like a thunderbolt.

The hope that had sustained him all these years had suddenlycollapsed! Moreover, according to Sierra, the death of his parents wasso tragic!!

Curse against family traitors?

Ancient Willis family!

Was it the ancient Willis family again?

Nora was cursed by the ancient Willis family curse and will face adeadly fate at the age of seven.

His own parents also seemed to have died tragically at the hands of theancient Willis family!

Ancient Willis family!

Lachlan's soul seemed to be roaring!

His eyes were extremely red at this moment, and he knelt thereemitting a breath like that of a grieving beast.

In his mind, the image of his parents’ appearance and laughter seemedvividly present, but suddenly shattered and dissipated at this moment!Over the years, due to his parents’ inexplicable departure anddisappearance, Lachlan had harbored not only longing and worry in hisheart but also resentment towards them.

Irresponsible parents!

Even over the years, because of this kind of complaint, he had neverreturned to his hometown.

However, at this moment, all these complaints had turned into thicksadness and regret!

"No!"

Puff!

Lachlan let out a mournful howl.

In the next second, he only felt endless sadness with nowhere to ventand release, as if it was about to burst inside his chest.

A mouthful of blood sprayed from his mouth.

Watching this scene, Sierra's face was full of doubt and uncertainty.She felt that the man in front of her could lose his sanity at anymoment.

"Are you okay? Who are they to you?"

Lachlan ignored her and only held an endless sorrow and anger,clenching his fists and smashing them against the ground.

"Ah!"

“Why? Why?"

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Lachlan's fists pounded the ground one after another, venting hisfrustration and sadness.

The ground cracked open, forming a large crater as if it had beenforcibly smashed!

In the valley, countless birds and beasts scattered, as if they couldsense the heavy killing intent and hostility emanating from Lachlan.Ancient Willis family! One day, I, Lachlan, will come to kill you! Let yourentire clan perish!

Watching Lachlan kneeling there, Sierra's face turned somewhat pale.She could sense that this man was extremely dangerous at thismoment, as if he were about to destroy everything.

However, at the same time, it seemed a bit heartbreaking.

What kind of blow must his soul have suffered to be so sad and angrythat he vomited blood?

It was unclear how long it took, but eventually Lachlan managed tocrawl up from the ground.

He carefully and treasuredly put the jade pendant around his neck, thensilently turned back and walked away.

The whole person exuded a sense of desolation, and also gave off achilling feeling that made one's heart tremble.
