Chapter 287 The Feeling Of Heart-Pounding Fear
Chapter 287 The Feeling of Heart-Pounding Fear
On that evening, a deste and quiet wastnd!
On the roadside, there was a van parked.
A person rode a motorcycle and arrived at this cete at night.
This person was Theo!
The van shed its headlights twice and as Theo rode over; he opened the car door and jumped
straight in.
"Hey."
In the car, Kayden sat in the passenger seat and turned around with a smile, asking.
"Um! How did I do today?" Theo asked pleasingly.
"Not bad!" Kayden turned around and patted his shoulder.
"The remaining money... you see..." Theo''s face was full of anticipation.
However, as soon as the words fell, a strong and powerful arm tightly locked around Theo''s neck.
Theo suddenly felt like he couldn''t breathe, as if his neck was being strangled.
"What... what do you mean?" His eyes bulged as he stared Kayden down.
"The remaining money, I will burn it for you! Hahaha..." Kayden pushed his gold-rimmed sses
and cruelly taunted with a smirk.

The next moment, his professional enforcer by his side swiftly snapped Theo''s neck.
Kayden chuckled a few times, looking at Theo''s corpse and disdainfully spat out a "pfft".

"Daddy, didn''t Miranda say she ising to live with us? Why hasn''t shee yet?" Before going
to sleep, the little oney in bed and asked.
Due to udia''s situation, Nora was greatlycking in maternal love. Miranda had been
apanying her during this time, making the little one feel a mother''s tenderness and care.
She had overheard Miranda talking to her dad several times, mentioning that they would "live
together" after the wedding, so she had been looking forward to it. However, the wedding was over
today, and Miranda still hadn''t shown up.
"Don''t you have me, Nora?" L sighed inwardly and asked his daughter with a smile.
"Oh..." Nora nodded and blinked her big eyes a few times before asking, "Daddy, did you have a
fight with Miranda?"
"Yeah..." L hesitated for a moment and then said with a bitter smile.
Little Nora snorted and looked at her dad, asking, "You''re not going to change wives again, are
you? Daddy, I think Miranda is pretty nice."
L broke out in a sweat upon hearing this and touched the little girl''s head, saying, "What are
you thinking about? Go to bed quickly!"
After finally putting Nora to sleep, L went to the study and took out his mother''s diary to
review it.
He had already read the entire diary a few days ago. The important information it revealed included
several points: his parents were both formidable martial artists with significant strength. His father
was a strong cultivator in the early stages of Core Formation, and his mother was surprisingly at the
later stages of Uppecia. In addition, his grandfather had disappeared without a trace after going to
Lucoork West. ording to his mother''s diary, both his parents and his grandfather were searching
for the same destination, a ce called "Cloud Sea Mountain Base."
His mother mentioned in the diary that his grandfather had hinted that within this "Cloud Sea
Mountain Base," there might be a method to break the ancient curse of the Willis family.
However, the exact location of this ce was unknown to his parents, only that it was in a certain
area of Lucoork West. Despite L''s geographical knowledge, there seemed to be no mention
of a ce called Cloud Sea Mountain Base in Lucoork West. Perhaps it was well-hidden.
In the diary, his mother expressed that, even though both she and his father were cultivators, she
did not want to continue on the path of cultivation. She just hoped to live a peaceful life.
Looking at the elegant handwriting in the diary, L felt a deep nostalgia for his parents.
After closing the diary, he sighed, "Mom, my child is destined to carry a curse. How can I possibly
live a peaceful life? Perhaps, it''s predestined by the heavens! I''ve already embarked on this path! If
it''s my fate, Nora''s fate, our family''s fate, I will not ept it! I will do everything in my power to defy
fate!"
The next day, after dropping Nora off at school, L, as usual, drove to pick up Miranda and
take her to thepany.
Even though he had nned to file for divorce in a few days, Miranda didn''t want anyone to notice
anything unusual between them before that.
At least, they had to maintain appearances for Emmanuel and Cara, even though they had probably
sensed something was amiss yesterday.
After getting in the car, Miranda said expressionlessly, "I''ve thought about it. When the timees,
we''ll say it''s because of issues rted to having children, that our values don''t align, and we had a
big fight, leading to a messy breakup."
Hearing this, L chuckled in disbelief, "Wouldn''t that make your parents feel awkward? Let
them think they pressured us for a grandchild, and that''s why we divorced? Or you could just lie to
them and say I cheated. I can be the viin. After all, I don''t care about your family''s opinion once
we''re divorced."
Miranda''s expression froze for a moment at his words, and aplex emotion flickered across her
exquisite face. Soon after, a deep sense of mockery surfaced.
"Hehe, let you be the viin? L! Are you still pretending at this point? Well, you don''t know
that there are plenty of secretly taken photos of you ''wandering off the path.'' If I hadn''t seen those
pictures, maybe I would have been deeply moved by your words. L, you fraud!" Miranda
thought to herself.
"Hehe, let''s talk about itter."
Miranda sneered, her face devoid of any emotion. L nced at her, shook his head, and
didn''t say anything more.
After dropping off Miranda at work, L drove straight towards the western suburbs of Ednd
to visit the Graham family and see if he could get some Spirit Jade or other cultivation resources
again.
After breaking through to mid-Uppeciast time with those Spirit Jades, they had all been used up.

Half an hourter, L had left Ednd city and was driving on a mountain road towards the
Graham family. There were rarely any people here! After arriving here, he suddenly felt uneasy as if
something terrible was watching him.
Suddenly, there was a figure in front of him standing in the middle of the road wearing blood-red
robes with sinister eyes looking over at him! In broad daylight even L felt an eerie
atmosphere emanating from this person!
With screeching brakes on his car stopping by the side of road, L got out staring suspiciously
at this person before him whose depth he couldn''t fathom!
Looking at this person made L feel like his heart was pounding even though previous
encounters with the Graham family head or severalte-stage Uppecia elders didn''t give him such
feelings!
A master! A powerful expert whose strengthpletely surpassed his own!
"Kid, are you ready to die?" At that moment, the old man in blood robe gave an evil grin full of
malice.
A terrifying killing intent swept over towards L!!
