Chapter 102

After sustaining significant losses among the family’s core members, Bobby Lane, who hadn’t taken the other side seriously, finally felt a strong sense of urgency.

Neither he, who wanted to climb higher by leveraging the Lane Family, nor the Sheep Heart, which sought to regain strength through the Lane Family, could allow the decline of this family.

However, just as Leon had no way to deal with his three thousand lives, the young man whose abilities were all invested in “dominance” also had no immediate way to harm Leon. He could only drive his “pawns” to surround and block while controlling those important “pawns” to retreat ahead of time.

But for Leon, whose movement speed was much faster than an ordinary person’s, and whose “maximum range” exceeded a hundred meters, this response method wasn’t very effective. The core strength of the Lane Family continued to rapidly diminish! Damn it! Why did the estate have so many useless things? In the soul vision of the young man, a soul full of demonic aura was using the complex terrain and various landscape buildings to repeatedly shake off pursuers, darting around the estate left and right.

As soon as anyone successfully approached within a hundred meters, a deep purple soul flame would instantly explode. Then, another “himself” following closely behind would joyfully catch the scattered fragments and swallow them all like a whale drinking from a river.

Under this highly efficient individual slaughter, in just two or three minutes, more than ten people had fallen victim to him. And many who had retreated ahead of time according to orders had just reached the first floor.

Can’t stop him, there’s absolutely no way to stop him! While controlling hundreds of people to guard several important members, they were still killed one after another from a hundred meters away. Watching Leon heading toward the west residential area of the main building, the young man, who had previously seemed confident, finally panicked.

Compared to those who were killed earlier, those who lived near the main building were the true core members of the Lane Family! If even these people are eliminated, forget about surpassing the royal family; the Lane Family would be torn apart and devoured within a month! This can’t go on! He must be dealt with immediately!

“Thomas!!!”

By relying on his dominion power, he instantly located the position of a blond middle-aged man and directly took over a nearby butler’s body, roaring at him with a fierce expression:

“That guy named Leon, why hasn’t he been recorded in the family register yet?”

“Eh?”

Startled by the sudden shout beside him, the blond middle-aged man turned to glare and was about to rebuke when he suddenly realized that it was probably Mr. Bobby controlling the butler’s body speaking to him.

“Right away! It’ll be done soon!”

Listening to the anxious and angry voice of the “old butler,” Thomas couldn’t help but shiver violently and hurriedly replied:

“The name has already been recorded, but since the elder managing family member identities isn’t here, no one can stamp it. I’m taking the family register to find him, it should take only a few minutes…”

“Bang!”

At that moment, the blond middle-aged man heard an explosion. Three hundred meters away, a window on the sixth floor of a small building shattered suddenly. An old man with white hair and bare hairy legs nimbly leaped out the window, crashing headfirst onto the stone slab below.

???

“You’re the new elder managing identities now.”

In the stunned expression of the blond middle-aged man, the possessed “old butler” said coldly: “Use your seal to stamp it! If you don’t record him within ten seconds, I’ll replace someone else!”

!!!

Hearing the “old butler’s” urging, Thomas trembled violently, feeling his knees go weak as he fell to the ground with a thud. He then crawled toward a maid nearby, snatched the family register, flipped to the last page, and forcefully stamped it with his seal! I’ve won! Looking at the crooked signature on the family register and feeling the newly connected member’s power, the “old butler” finally regained his originally confident expression.

My current strength is far from my peak, and I have almost no good methods against such individually powerful beings.

But as a former great demon, my rank is astonishingly high. Once someone is incorporated into the corresponding rules of my power, no one under the True God can remain unaffected!

“Leon Lane!”

Consciousness instantly withdrew from the old butler’s body and entered a new one. Bobby Lane controlled this aged body to walk to the window, opened the third-floor window, and confidently shouted at Leon seventy or eighty meters away: “Die!!!”

With this hoarse and icy shout, Leon’s figure hesitated momentarily, feeling his soul being instantly pulled into a “pyramid.”

And in this non-existent pyramid, there were nearly ten thousand souls arranged from top to bottom. A soul on the second layer was sending him an irresistible command…

But it seems not completely necessary to obey?

Checking his soul’s position, realizing he was also on the second layer, Leon’s soul flickered twice, instinctively retorting and counterattacking with a mental needle strike.

“Go screw yourself!”

???

How could this be?! How are you also on the second layer?!?!

“Pfft!”

Command failed, Bobby Lane’s eyes widened, before he could ask, he felt his right eye suddenly darken, and instantly lost control of this body—his physical form had been killed by the opponent.

“Thomas!”

Realizing something was wrong, he quickly retook control of the old butler’s body and angrily shouted at the blond middle-aged man sitting on the ground panting heavily: “What did you do?!”

“Eh? I… what did I do?”

“That Leon Lane! He’s now someone eligible to inherit a title, not subordinate to me! Dammit! I told you to record him as collateral, not give him inheritance rights!”

“No… No! I didn’t!”

Urgently flipping open the family register to the page belonging to Leon Lane and presenting it to the “old butler,” the blond middle-aged man trembled and defended himself:

“I really recorded him as collateral, Mr. Bobby! Look! Collateral!”

It wasn’t recorded incorrectly? After checking the signature on the register and confirming there were no issues, Bobby Lane quickly understood: the damn guy was actually a member of the Lane Family and even had inheritance rights! His previous inability to trigger his ability was because the name wasn’t recorded in the register and his identity wasn’t officially recognized. Now that the name was registered, his inheritance rights were acknowledged.

Even though his succession order was quite low, according to the rule of power ranking, the current heir himself indeed lacked the authority to command him!

In that case… there’s nothing that can be done! Looking at the thick family register in front of him, the “old butler” with an uncertain expression took a deep breath and then collapsed.

At the same time, a maid sleeping outside the Lionheart Duke’s room suddenly opened her eyes, got up swiftly, skillfully took out a pair of scissors from the cabinet, and quickly walked toward the Lionheart Duke’s bedroom…
