Rising from the Ashes Chapter 1230
Aspen was utterly stunned. Yara—Quinton's own sister—had come to Andrew with a proposal to kill him. She actually wanted her brother dead? Andrew, however, did not look the least bit surprised. Instead, he chuckled. "Mind telling me why you'd want to partner with me—someone your Wright family considers an enemy? Shouldn't you be here trying to settle a score?" Yara shook her head. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. You're a smart man, Mr. Lloyd. I know you understand exactly what I mean." Andrew gave a nod. "So what you're really saying is—you and Quinton are enemies." Yara's eyes turned icy cold. "Like I said, Quinton is my half-brother. But if I had it my way, he'd be dead and buried without a trace." Aspen, clearly uncomfortable, finally couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Wright… do you mind if I ask why you hate your brother so much?" Yara's tone stayed flat. "Sorry, that's personal. Not something I care to share." She turned back to Andrew. "So, Mr. Lloyd, yes or no? Gi

"Mr. Lake, please teach me. What's the solution?" the young disciple asked. Mosby grinned darkly. "Simple. Let them… die." … At The Sovereign Residences, Andrew pushed open the door to Aspen's room—only to find it empty. He turned sharply, frowning. "Didn't I tell you guys to keep an eye on Aspen? I said don't let her jump off the damn building!" Dylan gave an awkward laugh. "Come on, Mr. Lloyd, isn't that a bit dramatic? I really don't think she's that unstable." Andrew sneered. "Says the guy who's still single at your age. Figures." Dylan blinked. "Excuse me?" What happened to having a normal conversation? Did Andrew have to aim straight for the personal wounds? Still, Andrew could not shake the worry gnawing at his chest. He really was concerned that Aspen might have done something reckless. That woman had always been a little unstable, and the stuff that happened between them in the car recently? Yeah, not exactly therapy-approved. If Aspen got caught in a spira

Inside one of Genesis Dispensary's private wards, Mosby stood over his third apprentice, Ellis. He only needed a glance before saying coldly, "Start preparing for the funeral." Old Hayface and the rest of the gathered disciples froze like statues. "Mr. Lake, even with your skills… you can't save Ellis?" Old Hayface asked in disbelief. Mosby scoffed. "I can't. That punk Andrew shattered every meridian in Ellis's body. Most critically, his brain took a major blow—he suffered a severe concussion. Right now, he's no different from a vegetable." The more Mosby spoke, the angrier he became. He silently cursed, 'Andrew, you little bastard… your death is coming.' A young apprentice, no older than a teenager and clearly unaware of Mosby's true nature, asked innocently, "But Mr. Lake, Ellis isn't dead, right? We could take care of him here at Genesis Dispensary until he wakes up! Even if he never wakes up, you're rich, Mr. Lake—you could support him for the rest of his life!" The roo

Suddenly, a thought sparked in Mosby's mind, and his entire face lit up as he burst into laughter. "The Crimson Dynasty's Ten Great Treasures… now that's an absolute fortune. "Sure, most treasure stories through the ages are nothing but legends. People have always said the Ten Great Treasures were just old myths. But more often than not, even lies can carry fragments of reality. "The treasure map held by the Bates family is one of those fragments—hidden in plain sight, woven in half-truths. And if I get my hands on it, then riches beyond imagination are already within reach!" As he finished speaking, Mosby clenched his raised fist as though he could already feel mountains of gold and silver folding into his palm. Old Hayface was staring with wide-eyed greed. He licked his lips and asked eagerly, "Mr. Lake, is the treasure held by the Bates family really that miraculous? I mean… what if it's just another fantasy? Something someone made up to throw people off?" Mosby gave him a

Mosby had failed to convince the Golding family, and his mood had hit rock bottom. Given his status, he did not have the authority to issue a bounty backed by the major houses. In other words, he could not rally the underground assassins under the name of a bloodline clan to hunt down Andrew. So now, he had no choice but to take an alternative route. Old Hayface, still battered and cautious, spoke up carefully. "Mr. Lake, we really can't afford to take this lightly. This Andrew guy is no joke. Even Ellis couldn't beat him. If we're going after him, your average martial artist won't cut it." Mosby shot him a frosty glare and snapped, "Do I need you to remind me? The kid's arrogant, sure—but he's got the strength to back it up. To bring him down, we'll have to be strategic. That's why I said earlier—I'm willing to spend 500 million! "With that kind of money, I could buy the lives of half the thugs in this city like it's nothing…" Old Hayface hesitated, then suddenly perked

Richard stayed silent for a long moment, then clenched his jaw and muttered with a complicated expression, "This kid keeps making enemies left and right—either he's messing with major families or provoking big names like you, Dr. Lake. "You'd think he's courting death, yet somehow, he's still alive and kicking. But if you say he's unbeatable or has god-tier power, he doesn't exactly live up to that either. I just don't get why he'd go out of his way to pick a fight with someone like you." Mosby sneered. "The wise adapt to the times, but this arrogant little bastard clearly thinks he's untouchable—like he doesn't have to respect anyone. Well then, I'll be the one to teach him a lesson. I may not command a powerful family… "But my influence and pull in this city? It's scarier than half the legacy clans put together. I could destroy him ten thousand ways and not repeat a single one." With a huff, Mosby hung up the call. Richard's indecisiveness had irritated him to the core. …

Mosby's second apprentice, Old Hayface, had bandages wrapped around his swollen face and a freshly splinted arm. He screamed through gritted teeth, "Yeah, it was that little bastard! Mr. Lake, you've ruled Blumedale for years—when have we ever been humiliated like this? We've got to kill Andrew. Not just kill—wipe him off the face of the earth!" Mosby's face was dark as thunder, his fists clenching so tight that his knuckles cracked. "Andrew, you arrogant little runt… you've gone too far. Way too far." With rage in his eyes like flames ready to erupt, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number. He called Richard, patriarch of the Golding family. "Mr. Golding Senior, I want to increase the payment—add another 500 million!" Mosby growled. I want that punk Andrew dead by tomorrow. No—tonight. I want his body in pieces!" His furious roar was so loud it nearly burst Richard's eardrum on the other end. "Dr. Lake, calm down! Lower your damn voice!" Richard snapped. "You alr

"I'd rather hand it to you for free than let that scumbag Mosby get his hands on it!" Ronan said firmly. Andrew finally took the partial map and tucked it away carefully. He promised, "Don't worry, Mr. Bates. I'm just holding onto it for now. Even if this treasure is real and ever uncovered, it still belongs to you and Janice." Ronan gave a weary smile. "That treasure isn't so easy to find. To be honest, I've spent years secretly investigating it myself. But I haven't found much. This is only a piece of the map. "In other words, we'd need to gather the rest of the fragments before we could even begin to figure out where the treasure's actually hidden." Andrew chuckled. "So this was passed down through your family and dates back to the fall of the Crimson Dynasty, right? That means it's been over a century. Finding the rest of the pieces seems like a lost cause." Surprisingly, Ronan shook his head. "That's where you're wrong, Mr. Lloyd. From what I know, this treasure is tied

Naturally, Andrew refused and said, "Mr. Bates, this treasure map has been tied to your family's legacy for generations. You can't just hand over something this important to me. I can't accept it." However, Ronan shook his head. "Mr. Lloyd, don't think of this as something you're unworthy of or need to feel guilty about taking. This partial map—rather than calling it a gift, it's more like we're transferring a curse. Only by passing it on can we hope to survive." Still, Andrew did not take it. Instead, he asked, "So someone's already after the map, aren't they?" Ronan's eyes filled with seething hatred as he gritted his teeth. "You're right. And the one after this partial map isn't just anyone—it's Mosby himself. People thought he kept attacking Oak Apothecary because he wanted to take over my practice. "But that was just smoke and mirrors to distract the other big families. Mosby's real goal has always been to get his hands on our family's treasure map." Andrew's expression
