Lachlan was proud and stood there emitting a fierce aura.
Harley wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at Lachlan in shock, "Kid, who are you? Who is your master? Which family or sect do you belong to?" Harley thought that Lachlan must have come from a powerful ancient martial arts family or sect. Otherwise, how could such a young expert in the Uppecia realm exist in society?
Upon hearing this, Lachlan's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness. His master? He didn't have one. Nor did he belong to any family or sect. However, his question made him think.
With his current strength, he couldn't contend with the Graham family yet. Moreover, Lachlan didn't want to truly offend them for now as he still had many constraints around him and making enemies everywhere wasn't wise.
Furthermore, it seemed like he had forces of Core Formation experts.
Thinking this way, Lachlan snorted coldly with some arrogance and said mysteriously, "You're not worthy enough to know my background! I'll only tell you one thing - even if it's your entire Graham family, they wouldn't dare provoke my backing force! Go back and tell your patriarch that Jared promised me Spirit Jade before so it would be best if they send it over obediently! Don't force me into demanding things from Graham family because no one has ever dared default on their debts owed to me!"
After saying these extremely domineering words arrogantly, Lachlan left directly without looking back.
Harley sat there paralyzed with changing expressions on his face.
After Lachlan left, he took out his phone and called the Patriarch Matthias Graham.
"Uncle Harley, how did things go?" Matthias picked up the phone call then asked.
As an alchemist within the family, Harley held a somewhat aloof status. Even Matthias, the family head, treated him with a degree of respect.
"Things went wrong! This guy named 'Lachlan' is very strong-willed, refusing to hand over Nourishing Essence Pill's formula while also injuring both Jared and myself!"
Upon hearing this news, Matthias was stunned for a moment before speaking up angrily, "What?! Not only did he refuse but also dared injure both of you?! How dare he not put our family into consideration?"
"Sir, you wouldn't believe it. This guy is a master in the Uppecia Realm! And, perhaps, he really doesn't regard our family with much regard." Harley recounted the events, including Lachlan's final words.
"Do you think this kid really has some powerful background? He even threatened to come to our place if we don't give him the Spirit Jade!"
On the phone, Matthias's face changed constantly after hearing this.
"He's really arrogant! Could it be that he really has something to rely on?"
Harley hesitated for a moment and analyzed in a deep voice, "It's hard to say! Otherwise, how could he reach the Uppecia Realm at such a young age? And also refine Nourishing Essence Pills?"
"Sir, what should we do? If there is no strong force behind him, it is impossible."
After pondering for a while, Matthias spoke with caution. "Don't provoke him yet! Didn't he say that if we don't give him Spirit Jade, he will come knocking on our door? I want to see if this kid really dares and then decide how to deal with him."
On the other side.
Lachlan was unaware that his bluff had actually aroused suspicion from the Graham family. After leaving Lava Java Tea House, Lachlan bought some medicinal materials and started researching other types of "low-level elixirs".
He wasn't too worried about injuring two members of the Graham family. Of course not because he thought he could scare them off but because Lachlan had another confidence in his heart.
As they say - where there are people there are profits; where there are conflicts there are opportunities!
Just like the major pharmaceutical distributors with Flynn before, the introduction of several new medicines by Lachlan made them see potential benefits. As a result, they cooperated willingly multiple times.
This time would be no different!
As long as he can bring enough benefits to the Graham family, they wouldn't care about his actions or even sit down and talk things out properly.
