Silence for a Night!
After resting for a night, Lachlan and his two companions left the territory of Hudpids Sect.
Savannah had qualified to become a disciple of Hudpids Sect, but she did not stay there directly. She still needed to arrange things with her family.
At that time, Lachlan did not know that Miranda and the others were going crazy trying to contact him. Of course, they were not the only ones leaving; after the personal trials ended, people from other families and sects also returned to Hudpids Village outside.
When Lachlan and his two companions returned to the inn in the village, they saw that members of Hernandez family had come too. After Arlo's death, it was now led by a middle-aged man with early Core Formation strength named Darian Hernandez - Arlo's uncle!
"Landon, how dare you kill Arlo!"
"You don't have enough enemies yet?" Darian gritted his teeth when he saw Lachlan.
Other young members of Hernandez family also glared at them unfriendlyly.
Upon hearing this remark, Sophie's and Savannah's faces darkened immediately.
Savannah snorted and said, "In this trial, it's every man for himself. What's the matter? Can't you handle it? Still trying to associate with my family?"
Sophie's face also turned cold as she said, "Savannah has become a disciple of the Hudpids Sect."
By saying this, she wanted the people from the Hernandez family to think carefully before taking any action.
Darian let out a heavy snort upon hearing this, his gaze coldly staring at Lachlan, before turning around with his men and leaving.
The Hernandez family's backing was the Hudpids Sect, and since Savannah had become a disciple of the sect, the Hernandez family indeed didn't dare to easily provoke the Graham family.
But given the chance, killing that person, Landon, to avenge Arlo was not a problem.
After returning to the inn's room, Lachlan called Sophie and Savannah to his own room.
At this moment, his face carried a hint of seriousness as he informed Sophie and Savannah of the information he had learned from Hugo.
"I'm not sure if Hugo was lying to me, but just to be safe, let's separate from each other!" he said.
"Miss Graham, you've already decided to join the Hudpids Sect, so I think he wouldn't dare to harm you. Sophie, you should go with Miss Graham, which should ensure your safety. The Elder of the Wood family's intention is to suppress the talented descendants of the Graham family. He wouldn't specifically target you," said Lachlan in a deep voice.
However, upon hearing this, Savannah directly denied it, saying, "No! In that case, we must go with you even more. That way, we can take care of each other. You also said that the Elder of the Verdant Pine wouldn't dare to harm me!"
As she said this, she looked at Lachlan with beautiful eyes, a blush appearing on her pretty face. She bit her lip and said, "If worse comes to worst, you can hold on to me tightly. If he wants to kill you, he'll have to kill me too."
"Erm..."
Lachlan sweated a little, feeling the resolute attitude of Savannah, and couldn't help but smile wryly.
Sophie also smiled and advised, "Mr. Willis, let's go together! If we separate, there's no guarantee that Savannah will be completely safe. No one can guarantee whether that reclusive Elder of the Wood family will go insane and attack Savannah. After all, the reclusive Wood family and Hudpids Sect are both reclusive forces, and they don't fear Hudpids Sect. Even if they kill a 'potential disciple' of Hudpids Sect, would Hudpids Sect really turn against the reclusive Wood family because of that? Since you've already broken through to the Core Formation Realm, you can even fight opponents of a higher level. Maybe you can protect us when the time comes."
Lachlan heard this and couldn't refute for a moment, so he nodded and said, "Alright then."
Saying that, he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes brightened.
"In that case, let's not rush to leave. I'll make a phone call."
Faced with the possible interception, Lachlan thought of a "helper": Raphael.
Raphael covered in "bark" seemed to have a very impressive background, and his follower seemed unfathomable.
The man was also relying on Lachlan to treat his illness. If Lachlan died, it definitely wouldn't be what the man wanted.
Now that someone wanted to intercept him, Raphael would be a ready-made helper, right?
