"The Graham family?" Hawkeye Ghost snorted disdainfully at the mention of the Graham family. "They're just a mediocre martial arts clan. I advise you not to meddle! My backer is the Ghost Plaque Sect!"
Raul furrowed his brow at the mention of Ghost Plaque Sect, a true ancient martial arts sect known for its evil and violent practitioners. It was said that their leader was a terrifying powerhouse who had reached the Golden Core realm.
To be honest, in front of such an ancient martial arts sect, even the Graham family wasn't worth much.
Lachlan observed Raul's apprehension and sighed inwardly. He hadn't expected this particular elder from the Graham family to show up at such a critical moment.
He had hoped that he would be saved, but it seemed like even this cyan-robed elder's sect couldn't afford to provoke Ghost Plaque Sect.
Lachlan didn't want to put all his hopes on this man and took advantage of the opportunity to swallow a Minor Revitalizing Pill while using his dragon energy to quickly heal himself.
However, despite his efforts, his injuries were too severe for any significant improvement. But thanks to his dragon energy flowing through him from where it originated in his left kidney area, Lachlan managed not to die immediately from them.
If someone with injuries like Lachlan's were an ordinary cultivator or warrior, they would have died already; death was inevitable under those conditions.
"Hahaha," Hawkeye Ghost chuckled smugly when he saw Raul's reaction. "What? You've heard about my sect before? I'm killing this kid has nothing do with your family! If you don't want trouble, then leave now! After I kill him, I'll leave your territory and we'll go our separate ways."
Hawkeye Ghost could sense that Raul was slightly stronger than him so he resorted instead by boasting about their respective clan's power levels as intimidation tactics against each other instead.
Raul glared at Hawkeye ghost for several seconds before speaking coldly, "Who says killing Mr. Willis has nothing do with us? Mr. Willis is our partner in business dealings with my family; now you're killing him on our turf, what will happen next?"
"No matter what, I will protect Mr. Willis for seven days! During these seven days, you can't touch Mr. Willis!"
Hawkeye Ghost heard that with a stern expression and a cold tone, "Do you really want to interfere? Are you willing to offend the Ghost Plaque Sect for this kid?"
Raul also stared at the opponent and asked in a cold voice, "Do you have a deep-seated grudge with Mr. Willis? Are you sure you want to kill him?"
"He killed my disciple, of course I want to tear him apart!" Hawkeye Ghost replied fiercely.
"Have you thought about it? If you kill Mr. Willis, someone else might want to tear you apart too," Raul warned him in a cold voice.
Hawkeye Ghost's eyebrows twitched as he looked uncertainly at Raul's face and his own wrinkled old face flashed with suspicion and doubt.
At that moment, Raul turned his head towards Lachlan and said, "Mr. Willis, I can protect you for seven days! Seven days should be enough time for you to contact your family."
Lachlan nodded without saying anything because he knew that the Graham family's old patriarch was helping him because of his "background".
Saying that he would protect Lachlan for seven days was also a kind of test!
When Hawkeye Ghost heard this, he looked at Raul then back at Lachlan who had been seriously injured by himself earlier. His eyes flickered with malice before finally saying, "Fine! I'll give you some face and leave you alone for seven days! After those seven days are up... we'll see who can protect you!"
His words were full of hidden meaning!
Hawkeye Ghost also heard the implicit message in Raul's words: Does this kid have someone backing him up?
He thought carefully about it and realized that it was very likely!
Otherwise how could such a young man in his twenties reach Uppecia level?
