Chapter167-The Ingenious Use of the Silk Thread Ability

The elder who had been speaking walked over to the coffin and effortlessly lifted the lid. 

Daniel cast his eyes in that direction, surprised to find a perfectly intact corpse lying inside. 

Underneath the body, a tentacle quickly retreated. 

Despite its speed, it did not escape Daniel's vigilant eyes.

The old man glanced at the body and, seeing that it had not been damaged, closed the lid, his expression significantly softening. 

Just as he was about to let Daniel go, his eyes fell upon the portrait. 

His face instantly turned red with rage, and he screamed, "Damn squid! Where have you hidden my son's portrait!"

On the portrait, Liam's likeness remained unchanged. 

Why was that the case? 

Before Daniel could comprehend the situation, he saw a flash from the gun in the old man's hand.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out.

Fortunately, Daniel reacted swiftly, dodging to the side just in time.
