"It's the Kleins! It must be the Kleins. It's not enough for them to destroy the Skyes. Now, they want to destroy us!" The plump woman's chubby cheeks trembled, and her beady eyes were full of fear.
She could even imagine the scene of the Jackson family's blood flowing like a river.
Nash leisurely sat on the chair and said calmly, "What happened back then was your fault. I should've destroyed your entire family, but Lana was kind to me, which is why I'm making a concession to the Jacksons!"
Edwin said quickly, "Thank you, Master Young!"
"I can forgo the death penalty, but penance must be made. I want all of you in the Jackson family to kneel at Young Gardens and repent for seven days and seven nights!" Nash added casually.
"Sure… Tomorrow, I'll bring everyone to kneel at Young Gardens!" Edwin trembled and said.
For a long time, Nash did not respond.
Edwin raised his head cautiously, only to find that Nash had disappeared. It was as if he was never here.
Edwin knelt on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief, cold sweat dripping down his back.
Nash's oppressive presence was too strong. Facing Nash was like facing a god.
Edwin took about ten minutes to gather himself. He then dragged his weak legs downstairs.
He saw everyone surrounding Lucas, so he asked solemnly, "Is Lucas still alive?"
Lucas' mother hugged her son who was covered in blood and cried loudly, "He's dead! My son is dead!"
Edwin closed his eyes in despair and said with tears streaming down his face, "Lana, come back and save your brother!"
Somewhere in a fairyland-like palace, a beautiful woman dressed in a flowy black dress slowly opened her eyes.
A hint of complex emotions flashed across her endless starry eyes as she murmured softly, "That liar. He went to look for the Jacksons!"
Ditto asked curiously, "Who’s a liar?"
The woman shook her head and said, "I'll go out for a while. You just stay in the palace and don't go anywhere!"
Ditto said aggrievedly, "I want to go too!"
The woman stretched out her slender finger and poked the ball of light. "The remnant of your soul is still too weak. Spiritual energy outside is thin. Without enough spiritual power to support you, you'll quickly disappear!"
Ditto added, "I'll go look for Nash, then. I can hide in the Chaos Tower!"
