The Dawn of the New World-Chapter 1438 Let them know

1438  Let them know

Incensed, Hyde raised his hand before the would-be father but could not dare to bring it down.

"I should kill you for what you did, for what you will do again to my brothers and...me..." he haplessly mumbled to himself but it only made Hao Xuan's smile wider.

"I won't. I am not that stuffy old man. I am neither arrogant nor foolish enough to fall for it a second time," Hao Xuan reiterated.

With a weak chuckle Mr. Hyde lowered his hand, "Do you think he was always like that? No...he was once like you but look how that ended."

"I am stronger than him, he made sure I was."

"...I thought you said you weren't arrogant."

"I'm confident, there is a difference. You will see yourself..."

"I will, won't I? That's something only time can tell. Fine, so be it. What do you ask of me? Why bring me all the way here?" Mr. Hyde asked looking around.

Hao Xuan pointed in the direction the coffin was moving, "I am supposed to go somewhere but I don't trust the one who set it all up. I need you to help me get there a few weeks earlier so I can be prepared in case it was a trap."

Hyde turned to look where he was pointing but shook his head soon after.

"YOU!-" Hyde yelled in exasperation but his voice quickly fell, "Why are you like this? Like- him? You really are too similar, it's disgusting."

"Hey, that's no way to talk about your 'kind-of' father...and I believe we are here," Hao Xuan knelt as the coffin began to slow down.

There was a small whirlpool not too far ahead and the coffin was headed right for it. He quickly held Claudia's hand in his and channeled some of his spiritual power through to awaken her.

Her eyelids fluttered, "Master..."

"I'm here- stay down! Don't try to get up."

"Are we...there...yet..."

"Almost. But I need you to go there before me and prepare things for when I arrive. Some people will come to find you, tell them you are a priestess of the 'chosen one' and they will protect you. Tell them I will reveal myself when they need me the most but they should do everything they can in the meantime. Do you-"

*Shake*

The coffin suddenly changed directions and began circling the whirlpool.

"I have to go but don't worry, I will keep in touch with you somehow."
