Three people were riding in a Jeep Wrangler and had set off directly that morning for the destination of the Clan Grand Competition, which was Kreanford, located within Nading State in the northwest of Priocia, over 2, 000 kilometers away.
Since Savannah was carrying cold weapons on her person, they couldn't take a plane and had to drive long distances.
Along the way, Lachlan didn't say much to Savannah or Sophie and just lay quietly in the back seat with his eyes closed.
"Hey, from now on I'm not called Savannah anymore. Call me Callum Graham. Remember that! Don't slip up in front of others! Got it?" Savannah instructed Lachlan from the passenger seat.
Her tone wasn't great and carried an air of condescension towards Lachlan.
"I understand, young master Callum!" Lachlan nodded lightly and responded indifferently.
"And also you're not called Lachlan anymore. It's now Landon Graham. Is that okay?" Savannah added.
"With the same surname?" Lachlan smirked and couldn't help but tease her.
Savannah snorted coldly, "It's just pretend; what do you mean by that? You're being presumptuous."
Perhaps because Matthias and Raul once tried to matchmake between them before, this genius girl sometimes overthought things about herself and Lachlan. She felt like he might be flirting with her with his words just now.
Lachlan chuckled softly then shut his mouth altogether so as not to cause any more trouble for himself since he noticed she didn't like him very much anyway at this point.
At this moment Sophie who was driving coughed slightly then gave a look at Savannah, "Callum, don't be rude to Mr. Willis."
From the words of the family patriarch, Sophie learned that Lachlan might be a descendant of a powerful martial force, so she was afraid that Savannah would offend them.
"What are you afraid of?" Savannah shrugged, looking unconcerned.
After a day of driving, they arrived at the Capital, Vleah City, in Nading State that evening.
"Sophie, let's find a hotel to stay tonight, shall we? We're exhausted from driving all day," Savannah said, glancing coldly at the backseat and slyly remarked, "Some people have no manners at all. He's been lying back there sleeping the whole way!"
Even for cultivators, continuous driving can be tiring, so Savannah and Sophie took turns driving along the journey.
Lachlan sat in the back, looking relaxed and enjoying the scenery along the way. This obviously didn't sit well with Savannah, who was becoming increasingly annoyed with him.
Ignoring her, Lachlan pretended not to hear anything.
They arrived at Silverlight Hotel in Vleah City around six o'clock that evening. As soon as they entered the hotel lobby, a group of people approached them. At the front was an elderly man with gray hair who appeared to be in his seventies. He was followed by two middle-aged men and six or seven young people.
The gray-haired old man looked at Sophie and then gave Lachlan and Savannah a cold glance before saying mockingly, "Well well well, if it isn't Sophie Graham? The Graham family is still participating in this year's Clan Grand Competition? I heard you guys are struggling these days."
As he spoke, his followers burst into laughter. The younger ones even showed disdainful expressions while revealing their superiority complex.
