Chapter 1744

Author: Only For You
On a quiet street, inside a plain-looking tea lounge, a man in a tailored teal shirt walked in with a man and a woman trailing behind him.

All three carried a calm but commanding presence as they stepped through the door.

The tea house owner rushed over with a beaming smile and a deep bow. "Sir, you've arrived!"

The man in teal gave a light smile. "Mm. Has the person I'm meeting shown up?"

The owner nodded repeatedly. "Yes, Mr. Ulrich is already inside, waiting at your usual spot, Mr. Byrne."

Marcelo nodded and walked toward the private rooms with his two trusted aides.

The woman beside him sneered. "Mr. Byrne, Mason is nothing but a spineless coward. Total dead weight. Teaming up with him is honestly beneath us."

Marcelo replied with a warm smile. "Using people isn't about status, it's about suitability. Sure, Mason is nothing more than an insect to me. But if he can help lure Andrew into the trap, then he's done his job."

The man behind them chuckled. "Springflow, we

    "Mr. Lloyd, I swear—I don't know anything!" Mason threw up his hands, playing dumb. Andrew sneered. "You don't know? I was attacked at your father's funeral... on Ulrich family grounds. And you're telling me you had no idea? Don't you think that's a little far-fetched?" Mason raised one hand, his face full of conviction. "If you don't believe me, Mr. Lloyd, I swear. If I, Mason Ulrich, have lied to you in the slightest, may the heavens strike me down and may I die a horrible death!" A clap of thunder exploded overhead. The sky had already been overcast, heavy with dark clouds. And right on cue, a light rain began to fall. Mason's face froze. His jaw dropped, and he barely held back a loud curse. Andrew smiled faintly. "Even the heavens don't buy your story. Looks like you're out of excuses." Still refusing to budge, Mason insisted, "Believe it or not, Mr. Lloyd, I had no knowledge of any attack. If you're still doubtful, I'll swear on my dead father's soul! If I lied, may I

    Aaron said, "I've taken a liking to her, so don't kill her. Give her to me as payment for helping you out this time!" Andrew rolled his eyes. "What do you mean by 'helping me'? With Marcelo eliminated, didn't you, as the White Dragon King, gain plenty of benefits too?" Aaron was momentarily stunned, then sheepishly said, "Alright, you've got a point there. So tell me, what would it take for you to give me this woman?" Andrew stroked his chin, showing a contemplative expression. "I can give her to you, but first, you need to explain what you plan to do with her." Aaron chuckled lecherously. "My martial arts technique mainly focuses on energy absorption. The more solid a woman's martial foundation, the more beneficial she is to my cultivation. Now you understand, right?" Andrew replied, "Oh, alright. I get it! Take her away, just don't cause me any trouble!" Aaron roughly grabbed Springflow by the hair and dragged her away. "Don't worry, I guarantee you won't have any future

    Marcelo did not just sit back and wait for death. With his palms spinning through the air, he took Tiana and Aaron's strikes head-on. His body trembled violently, but in the chaos, he sent several weaker family heads flying with the shockwave alone. With disheveled hair, he roared as he clashed directly with Ronald in fierce combat. The two martial kings exchanged blows, and the shockwaves exploded outward, making everyone around them feel terrified. Ronald's face went pale as he grunted, forcibly swallowing back the blood that had surged to his throat. Marcelo, on the other hand, spat blood wildly on the spot and was sent flying backward. From the nearby grave pit, Springflow dragged herself out and shrieked, "Mr. Byrne!" Still midair, Marcelo roared back, "Don't worry about me. Run now! Get out and avenge me later!" Tiana's figure flashed across the battlefield. She broke away from the center, then with one precise kick, slammed her foot into Highmist's chest. Blood gus

    With a loud bang, Springflow took Andrew's punch head-on. The next second, she was struck as if by lightning, screaming in agony as she spat blood and tumbled headfirst into the grave pit. "Springflow!" Highmist shouted in shock. He charged forward, going all in to block Andrew and unleash everything he had. Andrew let out a cold laugh and shaped his hand into a claw, slicing straight through the man's attacking fist. With a brutal rip, half of Highmist's arm went limp and dropped uselessly to his side. Then, he collapsed to his knees, staring up in disbelief. "H-How are you this powerful?" Highmist stammered, his voice shaking with terror. Andrew's eyes narrowed. He was just about to finish him off when the ground behind him suddenly exploded. From the soil, a figure in dark green robes shot up, aiming a deadly palm strike straight at the back of Andrew's head. Marcelo had launched his ambush, his aura overwhelming. He had hidden underground all along, waiting for the p

    At the Ulrich family cemetery, black-suited bodyguards stood on all four sides while all bystanders were cleared away. To make the hit easier, Mason had even sent away the other Ulrich family members. The only ones remaining were a few skilled fighters from the Ulrich family, who were kept on standby for emergencies. A man and a woman wearing dark sunglasses approached Mason. "Where's Mr. Byrne? Why are there only two of you?" Mason asked with concern. The woman sneered coldly. "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. The funeral will proceed as normal in a moment, and you and your people don't need to worry about anything." These two were Marcelo's most trusted lieutenants. The man was called Highmist, and the woman was called Springflow. Mason's expression darkened. "If Mr. Byrne isn't going to make a move personally, then this assassination should be called off! Andrew isn't someone to mess with, and you two alone aren't nearly enough to handle him!" Highmist replied c

    "Mr. Driscoll, make yourself at home!" "Don't listen to him, Joe. We're neighbors—feel free to stop by anytime!" "Come hang out more often, Mr. Driscoll!" Joe smiled and gave a polite nod before walking toward the front gates of Serenity Villa. Andrew called out, "Hey, hey, you just show up uninvited like that? If you're dropping by, you could at least bring something with you!" The three women quickly grabbed him and covered his mouth. "Honey, you're such a typical clueless man!" "Can't you tell he's here to see Shiloh?" "Quit yelling. Let's keep training and just let him go." Several muffled thuds echoed from the villa, and Joe came stumbling out of the main gate, completely disheveled. His face was bruised in patches of blue and purple as he staggered like a drunk. "Ms. Greene, why did you start throwing punches out of nowhere?" "So what if I did? You totally deserved it, you stubborn fool!" "You…" "What? What're you going to do about it, huh? Run back to y
