Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918

Seeing that the barrister blocking them dissipated, Ashton, Kayla, Neil, and the rest rushed forward at full speed toward

Lawrence.

Ashton immediately caught Lawrence before he collapsed. He quickly took out 16 silver needles and drove them one by one into Lawrence’s critical acupoints. Then he used the Ninefold Arcane Technique, channeling life force into Lawrence’s body.

But what filled Ashton with despair was that the life force he injected into Lawrence wouldn’t be absorbed into his body. It was forced back out every time, making it impossible to provide effective treatment.

“Ash… Stop wasting your spiritual energy. My divine soul and body are already ruined. There’s nothing you can do to save me now.”

Lawrence had long accepted how this would end. A faint smile appeared on his face as he continued, “What a pity that those cowards hiding in the shadows never showed themselves. If they had appeared together, I could have held on long enough to kill them all.

“Perhaps it is better this way. Take it as a trial meant for you.”

“Mr. Clarkson Senior, stop talking. There has to be a way. Take these pills first.”

Clenching his teeth, Ashton ignored the strain on his own body and channeled more spiritual energy into Lawrence. He continued to circulate the Ninefold Arcane Technique, desperately searching for even the smallest chance to save Lawrence. Lawrence slowly shook his head. After releasing a long breath, his deep yet clouded eyes turned toward the distance as though he were waiting for something. When that expectation faded, the light in his gaze dimmed.

His voice then rose like thunder as he calmly began arranging the final matters he would leave behind.

“From this day forward, I will step down as the head of the Legion. I’ll appoint Queenie Nolan as acting head for three years. After that, Ashton will assume the position as the next head of the Legion.”

His declaration rolled across the battlefield like thunder, echoing clearly to everyone present.

“So, Mr. Clarkson Senior has truly reached the end of his life. This is his final order.”

“A legendary figure is about to fall.”

“But who is Queenie Nolan? She’s to lead the Legion for three years before passing it to Ashton. Is Mr. Clarkson Senior giving Ashton three years to grow?”

“Queenie? I haven’t heard that name in a long time,” an elderly man said with a sigh. “Didn’t expect him to leave the Legion to her at the end. Is he putting Ashton under her watch?”

“Sir, cut the crap. Who is she, and why would Mr. Clarkson Senior trust her with something like this?”

The elderly man replied, “When the Legion was at its peak, there were two names that stood above everyone else. One was Mr. Clarkson Senior, and the other was Zachary Nolan. They were brothers in everything but blood, the kind who would trust each other with their lives.

“From the moment they joined the Legion, they fought side by side through countless missions, cutting down powerful enemies from every faction, leaving criminal underworld organizations across the world terrified of their name.
