L sneered at her words. “So, you’re saying that the curse can be lifted even without the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant?”


    Last time, this woman had fooled him into believing that the pendant could suppress the curse.


    Was she telling the truth this time?


    “I… I’m not afraid of you torturing me. Everything I’ve told you is true!” Summer’s eyes flickered as she spoke.


    L asked her how to find the ancient Willis family.


    “I don’t know! Our hidden branch of the Willis family is just a coteral branch. Only our patriarch and a few core members can find where the ancient Willis family is located! And I advise you not to provoke them now! Not that I look down on you, but even our coteral branch can easily wipe you out!” Summer said with a sneer.


    L’s face grew dark as he nodded and stared at her with a hint of menace in his eyes.


    Summer shuddered as she felt his killing intent emanating from him. Was this man going to kill her?


    “Since your family is just a coteral branch of the ancient Willis family and works for them, if I don’t kill you, are you going to inform them about my whereabouts? Are they going to send someone over here and eliminate me as their ‘traitor’?” L said coldly.


    “No! I won’t tell anyone anything about your situation or whereabouts in my family,” Summer replied quickly.


    “But there’s still my soul card in my family’s possession. If it gets shattered after your killing me, they’ll know that someone killed me outside and will send people over here to investigate.”


    “If you spare my life, I promise not to reveal anything about what happened between us,” Summer pleaded urgently. She knew he was capable of killing her without hesitation if necessary.


    “Why should I believe what you say?” L asked skeptically.


    “At this point, there’s no need for me to hide anything from you anymore.” Summer admitted reluctantly. “Your grandfather took away the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant from the ancient Willis family, and it is their most precious treasure. Rumor has it that whoever obtains it may gain powerful inheritance and truly stand at the top of this world. So, I have personal motives too. I also want to get my hands on that Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant. As for your whereabouts, I haven’t informed my family about it, nor will I contact the ancient Willis family. Therefore, you don’t need to worry about me revealing anything.”


    “I’ve kept this information hidden. If my family, even the ancient Willis family, were to find out, I would have nowhere to go and be treated as a traitor! So, I will definitely keep it a secret! Trust me!” Summer said earnestly.


    L stared at her intensely as if trying to see through her. His face was constantly changing. He hesitated on whether or not he should take action.


    After a while, he took a deep breath and finally suppressed his urge to kill. “I remember you mentionedst time that you didn’t need Heavenly Spirit Jade. But I do! Where can I get it?”


    Summer inwardly sneered at the naive L for being from such a low martial world.


    “As a member of the hidden Willis family, of course I can obtain resources from my n so I don’t need it! Unless you’re willing toe with me and join my n!”


    Upon hearing this, L frowned and asked, “What else? Do you know where else I can get these kinds of resources or other cultivation resources rich in spiritual energy?”


    The ancient Willis family loomed over L like an insurmountable mountain before Nora turned seven years old; he had no choice but to confront them head-on.


    Therefore, L was eager to improve his strength now.


    Summer shrugged nonchntly, “I don’t know about other ces but there’s the Graham family in Ednd! They should have plenty of cultivation resources right? If you have enough money, maybe you could buy some things from them!”


    “Of course if you’re strong enough, then maybe try robbing them instead haha…”


    As she finished speaking, she showed an amused expression teasing L.


    L’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this and he subconsciously asked, “How strong is the Graham family?”


    Summer was taken aback by his question, “You’re not really nning on robbing them are you? As far as I know, their former patriarch reached Core Formation Realm decades ago but hasn’t been seen since so who knows if he’s still alive…”


    “The current patriarch along with several guardians and elders are all high-level experts in Uppeciater stage.”


    “Uh…” Upon hearing this news, L’s face changed again before shrugging helplessly, “Then let’s just trade with them.”


    ording to the ssification of Dragon Soul Immortal Technique in his mind, the nine realms were Energy Refinement, Foundation Building (Uppecia), Core Formation, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Void Reclusion, Fragmentation Void, Great Vehicle and Tribtion Crossing.


    L had only just entered Uppecia.


    Even though the old patriarch of the Graham family who was at Core Formation Realm was no longer alive, there were still several high-level Uppecia experts who L couldn’tpete with.


    Furthermore, as one’s strength increased and their cultivation level broke through limits again and again, their lifespan would also be extended.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Who knows? Maybe that old patriarch at Core Formation Realm was still alive!


    I’m still too weak…


    “Tsk…” Summer sneered at L with a look of disdain. Did this guy really have thoughts about trying to rob them earlier?


    After leaving the hotel, L sat in the car and calcted in his mind.


    Last time at the Graham family auction, he sold the Suppressing Talisman and earned over 35 million after deducting the Graham family’smission.


    During this period, Emerson helped him sell the Nourishing Essence Pill, and he received over 60 million.


    Dillon from the Hodge’s Winepany, where his old ssmate Allison worked, transferred over 5 million to him. In addition to that, Philip gave him two sums of money, one of 50 million and another of 80 million.


    When he added it all up, L realized that he had so much money now! It was time to convert these riches into personal strength.


    However when he checked his ount bnce, something felt off – then it hit him: 80 million! Philip hadn’t paid back yet! He almost forgot about it!


    L snorted coldly and called Philip right away.


    The phone was quickly answered by Philip himself, the CEO of McLaughlin’s Constructionpany.


    “Mr. Willis, is there anything you need?” he asked nervously.


    L sneered, “Mr. McLaughlin, you really have a short memory, don’t you? Why didn’t I let Emerson kill your whole familyst time? I’ll ask you one question, 80 million. When will you give me my money back?”


    Philipughed bitterly, “Mr. Willis, I’m working on it! I mean, it’s not a small amount. You gotta give me some time. I can’te up with so much cash right away!”


    L let out a “Oh?” and said, “Is that so? How many days has it been already? I won’t waste any more time with you. You have five more days to give me the money, or I’lle knocking on your door myself!”


    With that, L hung up the phone.


    On the other end of the line, Philip looked at his phone with a troubled expression.


    “Was that L? He’s still trying to collect his debt from you?”


    “That fool doesn’t know when to quit,” Kristina chimed in next to Philip with a sneer on her face.
