Chapter 566 It'S Not Miranda
Chapter 566 It's Not Miranda
Lachlan, Kamryn, and Phoebe arrived at the entrance of Nest of Malevolence once again, standing where the original entrance used to be.
However, the misty light curtain that was there before had disappeared and turned into a regular stone wall like any other place.
"Hey, the entrance to Nest of Malevolence is gone. The bodies of those brothers are still inside," Kamryn asked with a hint of reluctance and hope.
"Lachlan, do you think we have any way to reopen this entrance?"
Lachlan shook his head with a bitter smile. "The entrance is gone; how can we open it? Mr. Hernandez, let's accept it... Vanaro is dead now; we've avenged those warriors."
Although he felt extremely sad about it too, he could only say so much.
The souls of those warriors had been refined by Vanaro; their consciousness was erased entirely. When they attacked Miranda in Nest of Malevolence earlier on, Miranda absorbed them all.
Of course, Lachlan couldn't mention this matter...
"Ah..." Kamryn sighed helplessly.
In the next second, he adjusted his mood and expressed his gratitude to Lachlan. Previously, if Lachlan hadn't appeared in time to restrain Vanaro, both he and Phoebe would have been in grave danger, apart from Phoebe helping him break through. When the three of them finally split up and fled, Lachlan bought them time and even attracted Vanaro's attention.
"Hey, thanks!" Phoebe said, her face still cold as she spoke to Lachlan.
But right after saying that, she snorted, "But tit for tat, one day I will defeat you and avenge my past humiliation." This beautiful young mistress seemed to still hold a grudge against what happened in the Sacred Medicine Valley. Lachlan chuckled and shrugged indifferently, "Whatever!"
At that moment, his expression suddenly changed.
In the depths of Lachlan's soul, another incomplete spiritual consciousness emerged once again.
"Elder?"
"Call me Dragon Ancestor! I am your ancestor, why address me as an elder?"
Dragon Ancestor's Soul's deep voice echoed in Lachlan's mind.
"Um, Dragon Ancestor... what's the matter?"
Lachlan tried to communicate.
This mysterious Dragon Ancestor's Soul would usually remain dormant unless there was something important.
Previously, there seemed to be signs of its emergence within the Nest of Malevolence, but for some reason, it immediately went into hiding again.
After Lachlan asked this question, Dragon Ancestor remained silent for a long time.
Finally, his voice carried anger and fear as he said, "There's something wrong with your woman!"
Hearing this, Lachlan was instantly astonished, "What? What do you mean?"
Dragon Ancestor's Soul snorted coldly, "In other words, she is no longer the same person as before. There is a powerful soul within her now. The Miranda you are facing is not the same Miranda. Her soul has merged with that powerful soul!"
As soon as the words fell, Lachlan was shaken to the core, and his face changed instantly.
What?
The current Miranda is not the original Miranda?
She is being controlled by another powerful soul, even merged with it?
"Dragon Ancestor, are you... telling the truth?" Lachlan communicated with his thoughts, finding it hard to accept.
"Do you think I'm bored and joking with you?" Dragon Ancestor's tone was displeased.
"What should we do, Dragon Ancestor?"
"Ancestor, help her, help my wife," Lachlan urgently asked.
Upon receiving this news, his soul trembled with fear.
"I'm just a remnant soul now, I don't have the ability to help her. I can't even let that powerful soul inside your wife's body detect my presence. Otherwise, I could become its soul nourishment," Dragon Ancestor's Soul said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Lachlan felt a sinking feeling and asked unwillingly, "Is there no other way?"NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Dragon Ancestor's Soul snorted coldly, "When I was alive, I was only a step away from shattering the void. How could I have no way at all? However..."
"However, what? Please tell me, Dragon Ancestor," Lachlan urgently asked, as if grasping at a lifeline.
"However, it requires the power of this remnant soul of mine to be strong. I need a large amount of soul energy to devour and absorb. You need to help me gather it. Only when my soul power is strong enough can I help your woman, understand?" Dragon Ancestor's Soul explained.
Upon hearing his words, Lachlan's
heart skipped a beat. Dragon Ancestor's Soul also needed to devour a darge amount of soul energy? That meant he would have to commit many killings for its sake. And after killing, wouldn't the souls of the victims scatter and disperse? This was simply... creating sin.
Perhaps sensing Lachlan's thoughts, Dragon Ancestor's Soul continued, "It doesn't have to be souls specifically. If you can find treasures that contain soul energy, that would work too. Of course, killing and devouring souls would be the fastest method."
Lachlan asked, "Dragon Ancestor, how much soul energy do you need to devour? Are you sure you can help my wife? Can her soul recover?"
"Yes, the powerful soul entity hasn't
completely merged with your wife's soul yet. But time is limited, and within forty-nine days, that soul entity must be separated and dealt with Otherwise, your wife's soul will be completely assimilated, with no chance of recovery. As for the
amount of soul energy I need..."
At this point, Dragon Ancestor's Soul paused and said, "To give me the power to deal with that soul entity, I would need to devour the souls of at least a hundred ordinary people."
Hearing this, Lachlan's heart shook violently. "A hundred people!"
"That's right! Did you think it would be that easy? Of course, it's up to you to weigh the options. I'm not in a hurry. I can slowly recover, but your wife..."
Dragon Ancestor's Soul spoke as if it didn't matter. Lachlan took a deep breath, his expression becoming incredibly serious and solemn.
At that moment, Dragon Ancestor's Soul continued, "Kid, those who aim to achieve great things must be ruthless. You need to consider in your heart what's more important: your wife or your moral bottom line. Besides, you've killed evil people, haven't you?"
"I understand," Lachlan conveyed his thoughts.
"Good, that's all I wanted to say.
Think it over yourself," Dragon Ancestor's Soul said, changing its tone. Then it solemnly reminded, "Oh, one more thing I need to remind you of. Although I've been hiding. lurking before, I feel that the powerful soul entity may h
already detected my presence. Even if it hasn't, it might have sensed that your soul is extraordinary, different from regular people. It may even covet your soul. So, be cautious around Miranda until you deal with it. Don't engage in any overly intimate actions with her, lest it takes advantage of you."
