Diego's eyes lit up. "Tim, so you mean… We wait and see?" Timothy nodded, then shook his head, looking very much like a master strategist. "Not just wait and see! If Andrew turns out to be a useless waste who gets crushed by the Driscolls in just a few moves, then we need to strike fast to show our loyalty and earn merit! "But if Andrew really is as formidable and troublesome as they say, then we will pay lip service while secretly preserving our strength! Our people aren't cheap, and we're not stupid enough to lead the charge for someone else." Diego chuckled. "That's my boy. We'll do it your way." Timothy's thin lips curved into a half-smile. "That said, I do want to meet Andrew face-to-face someday. The Hopkinses rarely get involved in Blumedale affairs, so I've never had the chance to size up this so-called rising star. Honestly, I doubt he's as amazing as the rumors say. These days, most so-called prodigies are just hype, nothing worth mentioning." Diego appreciated his

After speaking, Walter broke into violent coughing. Diego frowned deeply. "Mr. Burke, the Hopkinses are a martial arts family where everyone practices combat. Usually, we only deploy our full force when the main family faces a life-or-death crisis." He added, "I don't think doing this just for Andrew is necessary." Walter's eyes showed wariness as he gritted his teeth, "These are Mr. Driscoll Senior's orders, so just follow them. Andrew may be despicable, but he's no ordinary opponent! These injuries on me are all thanks to him." Diego was somewhat surprised, "Mr. Burke, even with your combat abilities, you were having trouble with that kid?" Walter nodded, his already grim face becoming even more deathly pale. Diego replied, "Alright then, Mr. Burke, you should go rest first. In two hours, once I've organized everything here, I can bring people and return to Blumedale with you." Walter nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Hopkins Senior." … After the cathedral battle, Andrew

Half an hour later, Andrew left the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce building. The others left soon after, leaving only Ronald and Aaron at the back. "Ronald, you alright?" Aaron asked, for once showing a hint of concern. Ronald had wiped the blood from his face, but at the question, his expression twitched. "Do I look alright? I almost got the crap beaten out of me, literally. Aaron, if you don't know how to talk, just keep your mouth shut." Aaron said, "We've always been enemies and can't stand each other. But honestly, watching you get smacked around just now… I did feel a little bad for you." "Fuck off," Ronald shot back, his voice dripping venom. Aaron snorted coldly, "I'm not here to trash-talk with you. Let's talk business now. I'm betting everything on Andrew's side!" Ronald's face was dark. "Do I have a choice? I couldn't back out now even if I wanted to." Aaron grinned. "Maybe he really can bring down the Driscoll family. A martial saint is the real deal, a le

"Also, it's not a small amount either… It's over ten billion!" Andrew's expression remained as calm as still water as he stated this matter-of-factly. Ronald snorted, "I can return the money exactly as it was." Andrew waved his hand dismissively. "No need! I have a habit: money spent stays spent." Ronald narrowed his eyes and sneered. "Andy, you're forcing me into a corner. Well, I have a rule too. Money's great, but life is more important. If I don't want to do something, no one can make me." Andrew replied with detached calm, "Ronald, think about it again. In this world, there are some things you might not want to do, but you don't get a choice." Ronald gave a harsh laugh. "Andrew, should I take that as a threat? Are you out of your mind? I'm the Dragon King of Blumedale's underworld, the Onyx Dragon King. If you're trying to play gangster games with me, you're in way over your head." His anger flared up instantly. He could not believe that this punk actually dared to th
Rising from the Ashes Chapter 1966
At the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce headquarters building, both Dragon Kings sat silently in the spacious office, waiting anxiously and impatiently. The wait was unbearable, and Ronald, the Onyx Dragon King, let out a cold snort. "Andrew's getting more and more disrespectful toward us." Ronald sneered. "Aaron, I thought you only cared about money, not people. As long as you're paid enough, you don't fear anyone. Remember last time when Andrew went after Scarlett? I wouldn't help, but you were quick to step up. So why are you suddenly playing the coward this time?" Aaron shot him a cold glance before smirking. "Ronald, don't play the saint. We're the same. You can't tell me you weren't tempted by Andrew's 50 billion. You can act high and mighty all you want, but money like that? Nobody says no to it." Ronald's jaw tightened. "Who the hell wouldn't want that kind of money? But he's lost his mind. He wants to kill the head of the Driscoll family. That's Maurice, one of Blumedal

Victoria asked, "Andrew, do you think I'm just too useless now?" Andrew felt his heart clench painfully for that brief moment. "Victoria, I'm going to restore your energy core!" Even he found his own words hollow and pale. Victoria looked at him and forced a faint smile. She tried to act like she did not care, but he could feel the bitterness and helplessness beneath it. She said, "With Fallen Grace and Death's Draught plant combined, even a miracle worker couldn't help. You've already done the impossible just by keeping me alive. As for my energy core and martial arts, don't waste your time thinking about it. It'll only trouble you." She even joked, "It's fine. From now on, I'll just settle for being a housewife." Andrew took a deep breath and emphasized once more, "Victoria, I will definitely restore your strength." As a martial artist, he understood all too well what the destruction of one's energy core meant. Victoria would probably rather die than live as a crip
