The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 880 You’re Not Dead Yet

"Ah... Aahhh..."

After a series of anguished screams, Dog was torn to shreds by the very spirits he had nurtured.

In his final moments, he met his end at the hands of his own creations-his family's evil legacy, cultivated over a thousand years, came crashing down upon him.

As for the spirits in this cave, Daniel chanted a few protective spells and recited some incantations, completely purging them from this realm.

With the spirits freed, Golden Light Hill would no longer be haunted. This place had been the source of all the hauntings; with the source eliminated, the disturbances would cease.

With Dog dealt with, Daniel pocketed his hands and happily walked out of the cave.

As he reached the entrance, he saw Chloe and the others waiting anxiously for him.

Before Daniel emerged, Chloe had been filled with worry and concern. Although she knew Daniel was powerful, she couldn't shake the fear that he might run into trouble inside and fall victim to Dog. Now, seeing Daniel walk out safely, all her concern transformed instantly into frustration.

"You little brat! Why did it take you so long? I thought you had died in there! I was getting ready to report you missing!" Chloe shouted, clearly annoyed.

"How could I die in there? I could die on your bed, Chloe, but not here! If I had died in there, I'd have turned into a ghost. Not only would my soul become a spirit, but my body would also be feasted upon by wild dogs! After all, this cave is home to wild dogs that occasionally come in packs to scavenge."

Daniel's words caught Chloe off guard, and she didn't believe a word of it.

"Ha!"

She sneered at him, saying, "You little brat, what did you just say? A whole pack of wild dogs comes here to scavenge? We just left the cave, and aside from ghosts, there was nothing else! What could wild dogs replace to eat in there?"

"Chloe, do you know how those ghosts ended up in the cave?"

"How else would they have come about? They only become ghosts after humans die!" Chloe replied, somewhat exasperated.

"When a person dies, their soul

becomes a ghost. As for their body, only under special circumstances do they turn into zombies. The rest would be devoured by wild dogs. That's why the dogs around Golden Light Hill mostly feast on human corpses."

"Stop it! That's just gross!"

Chloe wrinkled her nose in disgust.

At that moment, Jax suddenly

Daniel: "What about Dog? Did you actually kill him?"

Jax's question was laden with ulterior motives; he was trying to bait Daniel.

However, Daniel was too clever to fall for Jax's trap so easily. He could see right through Jax's intentions.

With a sly smile, Daniel cleverly countered, "What did you ask me, Jax?"

"I asked if you did something to Dog?" Jax responded, attempting to rephrase his question.
