On this night, L couldn’t sleep a wink! He had been studying his memories thoroughly, including some unconventional and even shady methods. He hoped to find a solution but all his efforts were in vain. So he went outside and practiced the Dragon Soul Immortal Technique, breathing heavily and deeply.
L knew that whether it was the “Dragon Soul Immortal Technique,” “Dragon Emperor’s Canon,” or “Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique,” they were only partially unlocked in his mind. The more advanced levels could only be mastered as he continued to improve his strength! Perhaps then he could cure Nora’s illness and free her from its torment.
At eleven o’clock at night, L’s phone vibrated. He took it out to see that Henry had sent him a video message. At this point, L already knew that he had probably misunderstood the Ward family; Nora’s condition should have nothing to do with them.
Thinking of this, he felt guilty for his reaction and words earlier. He watched the video where Chloe and Nora were ying happily until Nora suddenly fell down.
L sighed heavily before calling Henry back who answered quickly but with an icy tone, “Mr. Willis, have you seen it? Your daughter’s condition has nothing to do with our Ward family.”
“I know! I apologize to the Ward family for my previous behavior. I was careless at that time.” L said apologetically.
“No need! As long as you don’t harm our Ward family again!” Henry sneered before hanging up abruptly.
L smiled bitterly knowing that the Ward family now held deep resentment towards him, “Forget it! If there is an opportunity in the future, I’ll help them out.”
Just then, L suddenly looked towards one direction where a graceful figure appeared next to him, “Summer! Is it you?”
The other person giggled and sat on L’sp. “Who else would it be but me? Have you missed me?”
L nodded. “Of course I have! I dream about you all the time.”
“Is that so?” Summer asked with a lightugh.
The next second, she drew circles on L’s chest with her hand and teased him. “You really are diligent in your training. What level are you at now?”
L hesitated for a moment before answering, “Grandmaster!”
“Haha, I knew it! You must have reached the Grandmaster level by now! Did you absorb the Spirit Jade I gave youst time?” Summer asked.
“Yes, thanks to you! You’re so good to me, Summer!” L said with admiration.
Summer rolled her eyes and changed her tone of voice. “By the way, did I hear correctly that your daughter has leukemia?”
L’s face changed slightly as he calmly replied, “Yes, but I’ve got it under control. Why do you ask?”
Hearing Nora mentioned made L nervous.
“Under control? Hahaha how is that possible,” Summer sneered.
“What do you mean? Do you know what happened to my daughter?” L asked anxiously.
Summer narrowed her eyes when she saw how worried he was and nodded slowly before speaking again, “It’s a curse! A curse passed down for thousands of years!”
“A curse? What happened exactly? Tell me everything!” L was both shocked and excited by this revtion.
“It’s nothing special really,” Summer began nonchntly as she continued on with an exnation, “We both share the same surname Willis because we belong to an ancient family ‘the Willis family.’ This family has been around for generations and is known for its powerful members who possess unique abilities.”
“To prevent these abilities from falling into enemy hands or being used against them by their own people,” she exined further, “the head of our family created a secret medicine which every member had to take every few generations.”
“Whether they were direct descendants or not didn’t matter; they all had to take this medicine,” She continued solemnly, “This medicine is actually a curse which doesn’t affect those who take it directly but instead gets passed down randomly within four generations of their closest rtives.”
“And your daughter seems to have inherited this ‘curse’.”
As soon as he heard this information from Summer’s mouthpiece; his mind raced through everything he had just learned – The ancient Willis Family… He himself was rted… And Nora’s illness was caused by some kind of ‘curse’?!
Summer’s words left L shocked and incredulous, but he didn’t think she waspletely talking nonsense. Perhaps this could exin why his grandfather’s Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant was so magical, giving him a dragon kidney and even arge amount of “dragon inheritance.”
Could it be that his own identity was so amazing?
“What happens if you are cursed? Will there be life-threatening danger? To tell you the truth, my daughter had an attack tonight. At that time, blood flowed from all seven orifices and her expression was painful as if she were dying. But after a while, she recovered on her own. What is going on?” L asked anxiously.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.
It concerned Nora, and he just wanted to make sure everything was clear.
“As far as I know, your daughter will have an attack every full moon night in the future! And it will get more painful and severe each time! By the way, how old is your daughter this year?” Summer asked with a serious expression.
“She turned fourst week. Why do you ask?” L asked nervously.
“Then she has less than three years to live! If this curse isn’t lifted by her seventh birthday, then her life wille to an end,” Summer said coldly.
Hearing this made L feel like his brain had been hit by a hammer – Nora can only live until seven years old?
No way!
Absolutely not!
“What should I do? How can I lift the curse? Please tell me!” L grabbed Summer’s arm with trembling voice.
Summer hesitated for a moment before saying seriously, “The jade pendant! Find that Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant and give it to your daughter to wear. It can lift the curse and keep your daughter safe.”
Hearing this made L’s face change constantly. He looked away so that Summer wouldn’t notice anything strange about his eyes.
This woman was lying to him!!
She didn’t know that he’d already given Nora the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant long ago but it didn’t work at all!
Her goal was just for the jade pendant!
She hadn’t told him how to really lift the curse yet!
Maybe everything about this curse was also something she was lying about too…
