Rising from the Ashes Chapter 1280
Yet strangely, this crazy woman's words were always ambiguous and arousing. If someone else had been in Andrew's place, he would have been shocked if Tiana had remained unscathed afterward. Sometimes, Andrew truly could not understand why Tiana, a beautiful woman in her 40s, would behave like those girls in their 20s. She bewitched minds, exuded seduction to the bone, and in front of men, she would tease and flaunt her feminine allure unrestrained. At her age, with a husband and daughter, would it kill her to be more proper and dignified? But on second thought, Andrew realized that Tiana had always been cold and ruthless, strict and meticulous—even Jameson and Lauren feared her. She certainly was not some loose woman, and in front of other men, she appeared unapproachable, icy, and pure. She only went crazy and acted abnormally when dealing with her son-in-law. His father was undoubtedly a factor, as Tiana saw him as his father's reflection, but did she really have no other un

What was this dual cultivation technique? Andrew was not some naive rookie who knew nothing about it. This method persisted from ancient times to the present and could be described as notoriously well-known. Put simply, the dual cultivation technique involved a man and woman joining bodies, harmonizing feminine and masculine energies, extracting each other's essence, and refining it into their own bodies. The practice was originally developed by Torasesy practitioners as a gentle, non-harmful method that was once celebrated and discussed enthusiastically. However, like any beautiful thing in this world, it could not escape one fundamental rule: beauty would eventually fall and become corrupted. The dual cultivation technique was no exception. By modern times, countless practitioners viewed it as a deviant practice. This led to predatory "energy vampires" who drained countless virgins to refine dark powers and vindictive women who seduced innocent men, demanding their en

Tiana felt deeply ashamed about this situation, but she consistently refused to admit anything was wrong with her feelings. She was the type of person who, even after making a mistake, stubbornly refused to back down. Wisps of heat began radiating from Tiana's body and head. Andrew's expression turned solemn as he recognized they had reached a critical moment in the energy channeling process. Following Tiana's guidance, his palms began moving across the pressure points on her body. These moments severely tested Andrew's nerves and willpower. After all, he was neither a saint nor immune to temptation. Andrew hated to admit it, but Tiana's figure was indeed perfect. Each time their skin made contact, Tiana would release unnatural murmurs, which only tortured Andrew more. The small chamber quickly filled with mist as time passed. A martial king's power relied on immense internal energy and bodily strength. Combined with Andrew's powerful medicinal pills, Tiana had become a walkin

Andrew had not expected this crazy woman to be more outrageous each time. The previous two times, although uncomfortable, at least she had not gone this far. But now, Tiana had actually taken off her clothes. Andrew could do whatever he wanted if he chose to, but the troubling part was that this would be his future mother-in-law. What kind of person would do something so bizarre? "Andrew, you're a medical practitioner after all," Tiana said with a cold snort. "Just treat me like any patient who's come to see you. If your mind isn't in the gutter with inappropriate thoughts, then why are you getting so upset and angry?" Andrew laughed bitterly. "Mrs. Rhodes, whether I have inappropriate thoughts or not, isn't the point. Don't you think it's inappropriate for an elder, especially Lauren's mother, to be undressing in front of me?" Tiana fell silent for a moment. Then, she hissed through gritted teeth, "You punk, you think you're the only one who feels awkward? I feel uncomforta

"Dr. Lloyd, did you know Fran has come to Blumedale?" Lauren asked with a bright smile as Andrew stepped into the Rhodes residence's grand hall. Andrew smiled. "Yes, I saw her yesterday, actually." Lauren's smile immediately turned suggestive as she lowered her voice. "So, did you two immediately go at it for hours when you met?" Andrew gave a wry smile. "No, nothing like that happened. But Lauren, you seem quite interested in these matters." Lauren's cheeks flushed pink as she boldly admitted, "Of course I'm interested! That busty Francesca got to enjoy what should've been mine first!" Andrew wiped his brow. "Hey, I'm not some 'thing' to be enjoyed!" "Oh, I know," Lauren giggled, "Fran already told me all about your… big equipment." Well, Andrew was thoroughly defeated in this battle of wits. When it came to dirty talk, he realized he was no match for experienced players like Francesca and Lauren. "Hey, Andrew, glad you're here. Did you manage to get those rare medicin

Half an hour after Andrew left, Chantelle arrived at the scene with law enforcement officers. The medical examiner immediately rushed over to examine the body. Then, he looked up and reported, "Ms. Garcia, the cause of death is skull penetration by a golden acupuncture needle. It's hard to imagine that a needle meant for healing could have such lethal power." Chantelle's expression darkened as she responded with a curt mumble without saying anything further. The officer who had been checking the victim's information said, "Ms. Garcia, we've confirmed the victim's identity. His name was Rio Atkins—Mosby's senior apprentice. He was somewhat of a celebrity in Blumedale!" "Package the body and send it to the deceased's family," Chantelle ordered coldly. One of the officers asked, "Ms. Garcia, should we issue a warrant?" Chantelle shook her head. "No need. I know who the killer is." The officer smiled. "That makes things easier. Ms. Garcia, you can lead us to make the arrest.

Rio's head was buzzing. He could not believe that his Seven-Tailed Centipede had failed. Andrew raised his foot and slammed it into Rio's chest. With a splatter, a large gush of blood burst from Rio's mouth as he flew back a few yards, crashing hard into a flower bed. This impact finally knocked some sense into him. As he struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes bulged with rage. "Andrew, this isn't over. Just you wait…" Rio let out a miserable scream through his blood-filled mouth. He never imagined his usually foolproof poison attacks would fail. Even more unbelievable was that he, Mosby's senior apprentice—skilled in both medicine and martial arts—had been reduced to such a severely injured state. The tearing pain on his face and the burning sensation in his chest with every slight breath made Rio realize how badly he was hurt. These injuries might even leave him with permanent damage. With this thought, his murderous intent toward Andrew expanded endlessly. He secr

Rio thought killing a small fry would be simple. It would not take him more than three minutes from start to finish. However, as the fight continued, his expression gradually changed. Andrew countered each of his moves. In fact, Andrew's strength was no weaker than Rio's. Two loud bangs echoed, and the two men exchanged another palm strike, causing Rio's legs to tremble slightly as he stumbled backward, shattering floor tiles beneath him. Feeling the burning pain in his palms, Rio's face darkened considerably. "Damn it, you're at least at semi-martial king level. I never expected you to hide your true abilities so well!" He spat at Andrew with intense hatred. That earlier casual, arrogant attitude—as if Andrew was already defeated—had completely vanished without him realizing it. Andrew replied coldly, "I never concealed anything. You were just blind." Rio scoffed. "So what if your fighting skills match mine? You'll soon witness my true killing technique." He raised his

Jared dismissed the news casually. "Fran had talent rivaling mine even as a student, so it makes sense for her to go. As for this last person, they're probably just filling a spot." Thomas laughed coldly. "This last person is hardly a space-filler! He's personally appointed by Malcolm, who has placed virtually all his hopes on this individual!" Jared was stunned. "Dr. Goddard values him that highly? Who is he?" Thomas said flatly, "His name is Andrew Lloyd." Jared snickered. "Never heard of him. Must be a nobody." Bernard, unable to resist stirring trouble, smiled meaningfully. "Jared, this Andrew is far from a nobody! The object of your affection, Francesca—her beloved happens to be this very Andrew!" Jared's expression instantly darkened, becoming filled with gloom. "He's Fran's beloved? He's not worthy! At the Grand Medical Summit, I'll show him the gap between a nobody like him and me, Jared!"."Fran is brilliant—I believe she can distinguish between precious gem and c
