Chapter 18


    Lucas nodded.


    “That’s indeed the case.


    Abraham, we saved you because we hope you can help the two of us.


    However, I’d like you to see one thing before I exin further.” Then, Lucas hinted at Fabian to show


    Sonya the scroll painting that Fabian prepared. Sonya nced at the scroll painting, and his heart


    instantly skipped a beat.


    “This is…” It was a portrait of himself! Nheless, Sonya quickly noticed that the youth on the scroll


    painting was not him.


    Instead, it was just someone that looked simr to him.


    Even though they resembled each other, one would notice at a closer look that the teenager on the


    portrait had a different temperament from Boneng.


    This guy appeared timid, and anyone would think that he was a coward. Seeing theplicated gazes


    shing in Sonya’s eyes, Lucas said, “Abraham, I’m going, to be frank.


    This person is Diana Montgomery.


    Yes, your hearing is fine as his name is indeed simr to yours.


    However, he‘s Diana, not Boneng.” Sonya expected that and he nodded his head slightly.


    “Then, no wonder you had that reaction when you heard my name before, Lucas.” Lucas continued,


    “Diana’s the Lawrence family’s future master.


    The Old Master sent us on a mission to Agr to bring him back to the Lawrence family.” ”Future


    master? Agr?” Sonya was stunned, but he instantly recovered himself, ‘He’s a son-inw that’s


    going to stay at his wife’s parent’s house?!’ Sonya was also well aware of Agr.


    It was a small country even further away than Salleria to Astren.


    Suddenly, Sonya’s eyes lit up.


    It seemed that he guessed what Lucas and Fabian wanted. When Lucas saw Sonya’s gaze, he


    exined, “Everything was smooth sailing when we went to fetch Diana.


    However, we met an unexpected encounter mid-journey, and Diana was murdered by a warrior who


    suddenly appeared.


    Moreover, it was a suicide attack as before we caught him, he ended his life with poison.


    We only found this poisoned dagger in the warrior’s body.” Lucas tossed the palm-sized dagger toward


    Sonya with a swift move, and it stabbed into the ground near his feet.


    The dagger glowed in a faint green light.


    Soon, the grass surrounding the area where the de fell slowly wilted. “Someone indeed arranged for


    the suicide warrior, but Diana was also killed in front of.


    us.


    Hence, this means that we didn‘t do our job well in protecting him.


    If we return empty-handed, the Old Master will discipline us ording to the family rules, so we might


    even lose our lives.


    Based on our understanding, the Old Master valued Diana.


    Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent us so far away just to bring him over.


    Furthermore, if we don’t return and report our mission, our family members that are living with the


    Lawrence family won’t be able to skip death once the news about Diana reaches them.” Then, Lucas


    looked at Sonya meaningfully and continued, “Abraham, you understand our dilemma now, right?”


    Sonya pondered for a moment and nodded.


    “Lucas, Fabian, when you noticed that I resembled Diana, you thought of substituting me as Diana and


    hoped that I’d agree to pretend as him? Then, we’ll return to the Lawrence family, and I’ll be the


    son-inw.” Lucas answered, “That’s the n.


    Abraham, I hope you can understand why Fabian and I are doing this.


    After all, there are dozens of our family members still with them, and we can’t watch them suffer just for


    our deeds.” Fabian also chimed in, “Abraham, besides you and us, no one else will know about this


    n.


    Diana and that suicide warrior are dead.


    It’s still quite a distance away to reach the Lawrence family, and we can tell you everything that we


    know.


    Once you remember them by heart, no one will see any ws.” After the two said that, they realized


    Sonya did not immediately agree to their n, but he was giving it a thought.


    Later, Sonya’s slightly turned cold, and he secretly did a signal.


    Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    Then, Fabian quietly took a step to the side.


    That way, they could corner Boneng.


    Besides, with the help of the topography of the scene, they already blocked Sonya’s way out. Lucas


    added, “Abraham, don‘t forget that I’ve also mentioned that this may be once in a lifetime opportunity


    for you.


    Once you be someone important, you can return to your family, avenge yourself, and destroy your


    enemy.


    This isn’t some idiotic nonsense.” Sonya turned to Lucas and said, “Oh? Once in a lifetime opportunity?


    Lucas, please enlighten me.” Sonya knew that he could not show too much resistance.


    Otherwise, he might provoke their killing intent.


    With Sonya’s current state, it would not be easy to escape from a fourth-stage True Martial Realm


    warrior and the at least fifth-stage warrior.


    However, he could not act too eagerly either as to prevent them from suspecting him.


    Thus, Sonya’s attitude must be bnced. “Abraham, I won’t exin more, but the current Master


    Lawrence’s daughter, who’s also your future wife, is a famous beauty.


    If you marry her, you’d be truly blessed.


    Many people would be envious of you,” Lucas answered. Sonya faked a smile, and he was not swayed


    by it.


    After all, everyone would say their daughters were beautiful.


    Therefore, before anyone saw them, they could say whatever they wanted.


    Thus, Sonya could only be sure about it when they met. Nheless, Lucas also did not think that


    beauty would impress Abraham, so he hurriedly continued, “If you rece Diana and enter our


    Lawrence family, you’ll have the chance to join Dark Moon Sect.


    Henceforth, you can step foot in the path of immortality, and you can cultivate yourself to live a long


    life!” “Path of immortality? Immortals?” Sonya was stunned.


    Then, he suddenly recalled the twodies that took Penny away when he was severely injured.


    Those two women were exactly as Sonya’s understanding of an immortal to be, and they came from a


    ce called Cloud Valley. Although Sonya did not interrupt them back then, it did not mean he was


    willing to part with Penny just like that. If Penny entered the gateway to immortality, and Sonya was


    also given a chance to do the same.


    They would have a higher chance of meeting each other again.


    Moreover, once Sonya got into the gateway of immortality, it would also be easier to seek revenge


    when he returned to Salleria. More importantly, if Sonya entered the gateway to immortality, it would


    also be easier for him to get to the higher levels of the Tower of Life.


    He could then receive the treasures that his mother left him too! Despite Sonya being quiet, Lucas and


    Sonya were already smiling.


    They knew that Sonya was moved. The gateway to immortality was unattainable to a mortal.


    If such a chance was offered on a te to anyone, they rarely refused it. After some time, Sonya


    looked up.


    His burning gazested for a short while, and it quickly returned to a clear ande expression. Lucas


    and Fabian were instantly stunned. “Lucas, may I know which Lawrence family you’re from?” Sonya


    asked slowly.
