Chapter 523 Trouble Comes

Anders let out a mournful roar filled with resentment!

With the tragic deaths of his family members, Anders was consumed by grief and negative emotions, blaming Lachlan for everything.

The surviving members of the Ward family also looked at Lachlan with hatred in their eyes. Many of them had lost loved ones to the Corpse King.

After seeing Lachlan save Harrison and fight against the Corpse King for so long before meeting them, they all harbored resentment towards him. They only wished that Lachlan had acted sooner so their loved ones wouldn't have died.

This guy must have done it on purpose!

Upon hearing Anders' shouts, Harrison, Gonzo, Brayden and the others from the Edoland were all left speechless in astonishment.

They actually blamed Lachlan for this?

Even though the Cohen family had no personal relationship with Lachlan, they felt that Anders was being overly resentful and blaming everyone but himself.

As Lachlan continued to battle the Corpse King, he felt a chill of anger surge in his starry eyes upon hearing the curses and cries.

Hmph...

He was currently locked in a dangerous battle with the Corpse King, and yet there were people on the other side who resented him?

Never mind the fact that he had no intention of harming the Ward family in lylonio. He was only assessing the level of danger and observing the situation. Even if he did harm them, so what?

When the Ward family in lylonio wanted to harm him before, did he step in to save them?

It was simply... infuriating and laughable!

Should he risk his life and act recklessly just to save people, regardless of the circumstances?

What right did the Ward family in lylonio have?

Even if all of you die, what does it have to do with me?

And yet, you still have the audacity to blame me?

At this moment...

Crack!

Suddenly, after Lachlan was once again pushed back by the Corpse King, a thunderous sound echoed from the sky.

A bolt of lightning, as thick as a water barrel and resembling a giant python, descended from the brewing dark clouds in the sky, striking directly at him and the Corpse King.

To be precise, the lightning was aimed at the Corpse King.

However, due to the size of the thunderbolt and the close proximity between Lachlan and the Corpse King, he was instantly affected as well.

Accompanied by a dazzling blue light, the Corpse King was struck by the lightning, and its body suddenly emitted a burst of black corpse energy, causing its body to convulse and tremble.

"Roar!"

From its mouth came a furious roar.

Its gray-white eyes looked up at the sky, and a touch of intelligence emerged within it. A hint of human-like panic appeared on its face.

After being hit by the lightning, Lachlan's hair stood on end, and a wisp of smoke rose from his body.

Standing there, his body twitched uncontrollably for a few moments.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the backyard showed expressions of shock.

Who could have expected that a bolt of lightning would strike, precisely at the location where the Corpse King and Lachlan were fiercely battling? "Ha... hahaha..."

"Lachlan, you bastard, you got struck by lightning!"

"This is karma for your malicious indifference towards the deaths in my family!"

"Hahaha..."

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Anders burst into laughter, his face filled with resentment.

The other members also revealed expressions of either schadenfreude or relief.

And at this moment, Harrison looked up at the sky, his face showing a mix of surprise and uncertainty, as if... he had guessed something.

"This... could it be... a heavenly calamity caused by the emergence of the Corpse King?" he murmured to himself.

The next moment, Harrison shouted at Lachlan in alarm, "Lachlan, run! This thunder tribulation may not just be a single strike. Get away from the Corpse King!"

At this moment, Lachlan snapped out of the numbness caused by the lightning strike. With gritted teeth, he was about to turn and flee, quickly putting distance between himself and the Corpse King.

Harrison could anticipate what was happening. How could Lachlan, who possessed the Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique, not have thought of it?

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and lightning flashed! Could this all be... a heavenly tribulation? Was it triggered by the emergence of this unparalleled Corpse King?!

When a cultivator's realm reached

the peak after crossing the

tribulation period, it would trigger a heavenly tribulation. Overcoming it,

would allow them to shatter the void

and leave this earthly realm. Similarly, other demon or ghost cultivators would also attract heavenly tribulations. Because once these races achieved success in cultivation, signifying their defiance of the heavens, the tribulations they faced would be more dreadful, even more... frequent.

For instance, some demons would face a calamity when they gained spiritual intelligence. When they transformed into a human form, they would also have to overcome a heavenly tribulation, and so on... Compared to human cultivators, these races underwent more heavenly tribulations and challenges. And the Corpse King before them was no exception!

As it emerged from the coffin, it caused the sky and earth to change color! After a spree of slaughter, it grew even more powerful and terrifying. At this moment... it finally attracted the wrath of the heavens, bringing down the thunder tribulation!

"Roar!"

After being struck by a heavenly thunderbolt, the Corpse King was shrouded in black mist, roaring at Lachlan before chasing him again.

Facing the might of the heavenly thunder, the Corpse King, who had already developed some intelligence, had its own instinct and consciousness to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

At this moment, it was determined to kill Lachlan!

Compared to the humans it had torn apart earlier, this human was much stronger. By killing him and absorbing his much stronger vitality, it would undoubtedly become even more powerful. The likelihood of withstanding the thunder tribulation was also greater.

Lachlan glanced back, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.

Damn it! The Corpse King was too fast! If it was intent on chasing him, he couldn't escape!

At that moment, with his starry eyes

fixed on Anders and the members of the Ward family, Lachlan saw Anders laughing maniacally upon witnessing him being struck by lightning. The other members also wore smug expressions, as if his demise from a lightning strike was a

cause for celebration.

A chill washed over Lachlan's eyes, a cruel smirk appearing on his face.

In the next instant, he changed course, charging straight towards Anders and the others.

Anders, in the midst of his hysterical laughter, fell silent at the sight of Lachlan's actions. His face twisted in fear and anger.

"Lachlan, what are you trying to do?"

"Go away! Don't come near!"

"Don't come any closer..."

Anders and the surviving members

elife

shouted in shock and anger. Their faces drained of color, ready to flee with all their might. However, their speed could not match that of Lachlan and the Corpse King, even though Lachlan had just been struck by lightning and still felt a lingering numbness.
