*Clink!*
However, just as Cain Wills was eagerly awaiting Celestial Emperor Demon Youth to extract the Candle Dragon Remnant Soul from the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant for restoration, the pendant fell to the ground.
The Celestial Emperor Demon Youth’s illusory face, seen within the Celestial God Jade, wore an expression of anger.
“Thaddeus, what do you mean by this? Are you playing me?
The Candle Dragon Remnant Soul that was supposed to be inside this Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant is gone!”
The Celestial Emperor Demon Youth’s astral form shouted angrily.
He recognized this Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant as the one he had used to seal the Candle Dragon Remnant Soul during ancient times.
But now, the Candle Dragon Remnant Soul was missing!
“Gone? How could it be gone!”
Cain Wills exclaimed, immediately confused.
Many people knew about Lachlan Willis receiving the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant’s inheritance,
but the fact that the Candle Dragon Remnant Soul resided within his own soul had only been told to Miranda Lowe, and no one else.
Cain Wills hadn’t thought that the soul had been unsealed from the pendant.
“Gone! It’s really gone!”
The Celestial Emperor Demon Youth’s astral form coldly replied, his eyes shifting with uncertainty. He then spoke slowly, word by word:
“Someone must have obtained the inheritance from this jade pendant. The Candle Dragon Remnant Soul is with that person!
Yes, it must be with them!
Thaddeus, my brother, from whom did you get this pendant?
Go, kill him! Bring me his soul!”
With these words, Cain Wills’ face immediately hardened, his expression shifting rapidly.
“Alright!”
After a moment of thought, he inhaled deeply and nodded.
…
At the Ancient Willis family estate,
Nora had just awoken. The two lumps on her forehead had disappeared, and the dragon-like scales on her body were also gone.
Another week had passed!
During this time, the intelligent Nora had already mastered the transformation of her body and fully controlled the changes made to it.
At this moment, Nora was in the courtyard, practicing a set of movements.
This set of movements was the first level of the Dragon Transformation Divine Decision, designed to help Nora completely adapt to her new dragon-like body and unlock its full potential.
Lachlan Willis looked at his daughter with affectionate and indulgent eyes, a hint of heartache in his gaze.
“Nora, take a break if you’re tired.”
The training movements for the Dragon Transformation Divine Decision seemed somewhat similar to the Divine Beast Wilderness Fist.
It appeared simple, even slow, but it placed a huge burden on the body.
At this point, Nora’s small face was drenched in sweat, and her tiny body was trembling slightly.
So Lachlan Willis couldn’t help but urge her to rest.
He didn’t care how strong Nora would eventually become; seeing her struggle made his heart ache.
“Oh!”
Nora heard her father’s words and finally stopped, panting as she ran over to Lachlan Willis.
“Daddy, wipe my sweat!”
The little one said, showing a hint of charm and a playful tone as she lifted her face toward him.
Lachlan Willis smiled lovingly and picked up a towel.
However, when he wiped the sweat from Nora’s forehead, he was startled to see two lumps suddenly appear on her forehead.
“Daddy, did I scare you?”
“Hehe…”
Nora immediately laughed, her eyes turning into crescent moons as she playfully stuck out her tongue at Lachlan Willis.
“You little rascal!”
Lachlan Willis was both amused and exasperated as he picked Nora up and gave her two light taps on her little bottom.
“Hehehe…”
Nora let out a silver bell-like laugh, cuddling up to Lachlan Willis in his arms.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door of the estate.
“Come in!”
Lachlan Willis said in a deep voice.
The next second, Violet Willis entered the room.
“Violet, what’s the matter?”
Lachlan Willis smiled as he saw her.
“Aunt!”
Nora jumped down from her father’s arms and called out obediently.
“Mm, good girl, Nora.”
Violet Willis smiled, ruffling Nora’s hair before turning to Lachlan Willis and saying, “Brother, our second grandfather is back and looking for you.”
“Second grandfather?”
Lachlan Willis was momentarily stunned.
“Yes, Cain Wills, your grandfather!”
Violet Willis rolled her eyes as she explained.
“My grandfather! He’s back?”
Lachlan Willis’ eyes instantly lit up at the mention.
The next second, he eagerly picked up Nora and said, “Nora, let’s go meet your great-grandfather, shall we?”
“Great-grandfather? Yes, yes!”
Nora’s big eyes shone with excitement.
Although Nora was lively and adorable, her background was rather pitiful.
Her birth mother, Claudia Carter, had betrayed the family and nearly caused Nora’s death several times.
Although she had finally gained a mother in Miranda Lowe, she had now disappeared too.
Nora’s young heart deeply craved familial love.
“Then let’s go. Violet, take me to him.”
Lachlan Willis said with excitement.
Having lost his parents, he naturally felt a deep attachment and respect for his grandfather, who was one of his closest relatives.
Grandparents had always been closer than grandparents in Lachlan Willis’ heart.
Cain Wills held a position in his heart that even Jerome Wynter could not match.
Violet Willis nodded, walking ahead as she led the way to the reception hall of the Ancient Willis family estate.
At that moment, in the reception hall,
Cain Wills sat there, accompanied by the two elder ancestors, Michael and Reginald Wills.
In the cultivation world, strength determined respect!
Although Cain Wills was technically their junior by generation, his strength commanded respect.
“They’ve arrived!”
At that moment, Cain Wills’ expression shifted, his divine sense probing something.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes!
