Chapter 2078

Author: Only For You
"Climb over here and follow me!" Cordelia whispered.

She moved quickly, and after helping the two men over, she immediately took the lead.

Andrew and Eric said nothing and hurried to keep up with her. The spot where they had climbed into the estate happened to be empty.

Cordelia explained, "I sent the McDaniel family's patrol guards away. If we run into anyone questioning us, don't say a word."

As soon as she finished speaking, they passed through an archway. Inside the compound, guards watched vigilantly every dozen steps or so.

The security was incredibly tight.

"Hold it! What are you two doing here?" As expected, they were stopped.

Andrew kept his expression neutral and looked toward Cordelia. With the black silk scarf covering the lower half of her face, Cordelia said flatly, "These two are with us. Let us through!"

The guard stared at Andrew and Eric for a moment. Then, he waved his hand, signaling they could pass.

Only after they had walked quite a distance did

    The layout of the McDaniel family estate was crystal clear. The main family's core area was located in the northern part of the estate, positioned at the highest point. Compared to the bright lights and chaos below, the northern section was obviously much quieter, shrouded in darkness with only dim lighting. Andrew stepped along the roof edges, climbing steadily upward. With his current abilities, the patrols had no chance of spotting him. His target was simple: head straight to the highest point, toward the McDaniel family's chapel. Any major family with a long heritage considered their family chapel to be of utmost importance. Andrew planned to try his luck and see if he might encounter McDaniel family leadership or Crimson Flame Cult members at the chapel. He could not understand why a great family like the McDaniel family would willingly serve the Crimson Flame Cult. Perhaps the McDaniel family and the Crimson Flame Cult had reached some kind of secret conspiracy. Though

    Henry's ambition was undeniable. Eric said, "Staying here isn't a solution. We need to find Shiloh." Andrew agreed and looked at him. "Let's split up. Half an hour from now, no matter what happens, meet back here." Eric nodded. "Deal." He slipped out the door and disappeared into the shadows. Andrew stepped out as well, closing the door behind him. After orienting himself, he headed toward the upper levels of the estate. Since Eric had gone toward the crowded, lively side, he would cover the opposite direction. Security was incredibly tight, and Andrew often had to perform various acrobatic maneuvers to stay hidden. Fortunately, he was already inside the McDaniel family estate, so he could move through the buildings and their interiors as he worked his way up to the higher levels. As he passed by a hallway, he heard voices coming from inside. Andrew immediately pressed himself against the wall and listened carefully. "Declan, who exactly are these weird people who c

    Andrew said, "If you help us and get exposed, you could die." Cordelia blurted out, "I'm not afraid! I grew up in hellish conditions. Later, when I was taken and forced into the Crimson Flame Cult, I suffered through the torment of the Flamebinding. I've already lived through worse. Passing along information is nothing compared to that. I can handle it easily." Andrew hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Alright then, but be careful." Cordelia smiled. "Consider this my way of repaying you for saving my life and helping me break free from the Flamebinding." Then, she removed her disguise and put on the black robes of a Crimson Flame Cult member, covering half her face before heading out the door. Eric chuckled. "You're not actually buying into what she is selling, are you?" Andrew replied casually, "Whether I believe her or not doesn't matter. Even if she walks out that door and sells us out immediately, it won't make a difference." Eric looked thoughtful. "I actually thi

    The door slammed shut with a bang. Andrew and his crew slipped into an empty house. Sunstrand was nothing like Goldridge. Other than its small downtown, the place was just neighborhoods stacked one after another. Hiding here was child's play for Andrew. Andrew leaned against the door with a smirk. "You old flame's quite a cunning fox, eh? Not only did you beat us here to Sunstrand, but he even set traps for us." Eric sat on the bed, gasping for breath as he gritted his teeth. "I told you before, Henry isn't someone to underestimate. In fact, Henry really is a wild beast. Give him the chance, and he'll do anything and even pull it off." Andrew shrugged. "Of course I know. That man will try anything. Otherwise, he wouldn't have worked as the McCormick family's lapdog and taken a swing at Mr. Thornton. If the McCormicks hadn't been backing him, Mr. Thornton alone could've buried him." Eric's face darkened. "Right now, we're already exposed in Sunstrand. Finding Shiloh is going t

    In the next instant, Andrew had Callum firmly in his grasp. Callum managed a quick reaction, stomping the ground and leaping upward, his leg whipping around in a vicious kick aimed at Andrew's head. Yet, Andrew's face did not even flicker. He blocked with his elbow, deflecting the strike, and then slammed a palm into Callum's shoulder. It all happened so fast that Henry and the McDaniel family's martial saint, Larry McDaniel, only realized what was happening when it was too late. Both roared in fury and shot toward Andrew. Andrew's face hardened with killing intent. Ignoring Callum's scream, he grabbed him like a rag doll and hurled him outward. A violent surge of energy burst from the strike, making the entire redwood forest tremble. Larry froze, afraid to attack recklessly and injure Callum. He dropped back down to the ground just as Andrew kicked Callum hard in the chest. Blood gushed out from Callum's mouth as his face twisted in agony. Larry's eyes bulged with ra
