Although there was a certain distance between them, the commotion in the Ward Residence was so loud that Erik and others could hear it clearly.
Screams, cries and shouts... all kinds of noises were coming from inside, making them feel uncertain.
"What's going on?" Emmett looked puzzled.
"Grandpa, what did Lachlan go back for? Is this his doing?" Henry's face changed several times.
As soon as he finished speaking, Erik also looked doubtful.
At this time, Emmett sneered, "He did it alone? Does he have that ability?"
Then his tone changed, "But what did that guy go back for? If this is really caused by him, what is his purpose? Did he deliberately soften us up before avoiding us and then went back alone to snatch the treasure?"
Erik shook his head, "Emmett, you are too biased against Lachlan and you think too lowly of him. He wouldn't do something like that."
"What exactly happened? Let's go over there and see," Caleb who had just been rescued frowned at this moment.
"Yes! I'll take people over there to see what happened," Henry said.
The screams and cries coming from the Ward Residence made everyone nervous inside out.
"In that case, let's go together!" Erik said in a deep voice.
The noise on the other side made him feel uneasy and scared; he wanted to know what had happened.
They arrived at the Ward Residence but no one stopped or questioned them anymore.
Many people were running around frantically with an expression of panic on their faces.
"What happened?" Henry grabbed a maid who looked confused and asked anxiously.
"People died! Many people died!"
"There are monsters! There are monsters..." The maid cried with a pale face but couldn't explain clearly.
After shouting for a few more sentences, she ran away from Henry as if her life depended on it.
"Monsters?"
"Let's go check it out! The noise seems to be coming from behind the house!"
After a moment, they arrived at the vast backyard of the Ward Residence and were immediately stunned by the scene before them.
When they arrived, Lachlan had just engaged in a battle with Corpse King!
The backyard was a scene of devastation!
Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground and hearing the cries and screams, Erik, Anders and their group all wore expressions of deep shock.
"Ah! Why? Why?"
"Oh heavens, why are you playing with me like this?"
"Edward, my grandson! And my sons..."
"You all died so miserably!"
"Master Flame, you wicked creature! Our ancestors served you their entire lives, and yet you set up such a sinister plot to harm our family..."
From the other side, cries of despair, curses, and screams could be heard.
Following the sound, they saw Anders now collapsed on the ground, wearing an expression of grief and despair.
Beside him, the remaining few core members of the Ward family also appeared devastated, their cries filling the air.
Erik, Emmett, Henry, and the others couldn't help but exchange glances, their expressions somewhat intriguing.
What was going on?
Did a significant number of people from the Ward family in Iylonio die? It couldn't be... Were these the only ones left?
For a moment, Erik, Henry, and the others didn't know what to feel.
Schadenfreude? It didn't seem like it...
Grief of the fox when the rabbit dies? Not quite...
