Chapter 2181

Author: Only For You
The fight inside erupted with the sound of rapid, chaotic blows. The narrow alley's brick walls crumbled one after another, and a piercing scream echoed out.

It was impossible to tell if it was Andrew or Hugo.

The next second, a body shot out of the shadows and crashed hard onto the ground, hair disheveled and face smeared with blood.

The Eastonia assassin who had been quietly watching tightened his grip on the twin blades strapped to his back. He quickly realized the one lying there was Hugo, not Andrew, which meant that the scream had come from Hugo.

Out of the darkness beyond the streetlight, Andrew slowly walked forward, his clothes nearly spotless except for a little dirt around his pants.

Hugo was sprawled on the ground, his iron gauntlets shattered beyond repair. The fingers inside were mangled, some crushed, others torn apart, making for a horrific sight. He let out a feral roar like a wounded beast and lunged at Andrew on all fours.

For the first time, Andrew's ex

    The water surged violently. Outside, the long strands of waterweed began to twitch and stretch, as if something alive was about to emerge. Then, all at once, they shot inward toward the two people standing at the center. Andrew twisted his body, barely dodging a deadly strike. However, Shiloh, still gripping her sword with one hand, was not as lucky. Caught off guard, she was lashed hard across the chest by a strand of waterweed. She gasped and spat out a mouthful of blood. Andrew's heart jumped, knowing these things were not normal. They were clearly being controlled by some unseen force. Even that one hit had the power of a cannon blast. "Drop the damn sword! We need to get to the surface!" he shouted, reaching for her hand. Even in that critical moment, the stubborn woman refused to let go of her sword. She shook off his grip, crossing both hands over the hilt and shouting, "Come on… open!" Shiloh braced herself on the stone platform, her legs digging into the ground.

    Shiloh stepped in front of him and said coldly, "Andrew, you'd better listen to me carefully. Otherwise, I won't be polite." Andrew frowned. "You really have a temper now. You slapped me earlier, then you came down and insulted me, and now you're acting like this… Aren't you being a little extreme for a woman?" Shiloh sneered. "So even you think I'm too violent and not feminine enough?" Andrew opened his mouth. "That's not exactly what I meant." She snorted through her nose. "If anyone's pulling the sword, it'll be me first. I am determined to claim it!" Andrew shrugged and smiled. "Fine, fine, it's yours. Go ahead and pull it out so we can leave." Shiloh moved forward cautiously and gripped the corroded iron sword. Andrew saw her face tighten as she put everything into the effort, but the blade did not budge. He could not help laughing. "Maybe you're not strong enough. Move aside…This kind of heavy work is for the men." Shiloh said flatly, "This Godslayer sword was

    Soon, ten minutes passed. Andrew watched the surface with growing anxiety since nothing stirred, and he worried that Shiloh might be in real trouble after going down alone. He checked the cave again and confirmed there was no exit except the underwater passage. "If that's the only way out, then I'll have to go down too," he mumbled. Gritting his teeth, he also plunged into the water. This time, he made a small precaution: he wrapped a length of tough waterweed around his waist. The cave ceiling and walls hung with long strands of waterweed, and he guessed those plants had been growing for ages; most were about seven meters long, and some stretched over ten. That gave him a little insurance and steadied his nerves as he sank deeper into the dark water. The depths were pitch-black, and the bottom invisible, yet the water seemed calmer for a moment, which allowed Andrew to breathe easier as long as there were no weird currents or strange forces pulling at him. As he went deepe

    Andrew said, "Shiloh, whether or not there really is that unbeatable divine sword in the Sword Pool, I can't agree with what you said just now. You're the last of the Greene family, and if I were you, I'd find somewhere no one knew who you were and try to survive quietly. If you wanted, you could come back to Chetvine with me, and whatever I have, you'll have a share too." Shiloh shook her head. "Andrew, that life you describe isn't for me. Why should I hide? Why should I fear those idiots who don't know when to quit? And why would I go with you? A lot of my memories came back, and right now I have well over 100 people I want dead." She added, "My ageless syndrome has eased for the time being, and once I open the Greene family's vault, I could even dominate the whole Holtrien martial arts world." Andrew frowned. "The Greene family has a vault?" Shiloh replied, "Yes, but don't expect me to tell you where it is." Andrew stepped forward. "I don't want your family's vault, Shiloh

    Shiloh observed her surroundings before saying flatly, "Of course, I know it's you. But I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a while, you'd turn into such a shameless pervert." Andrew was speechless. "What did I do? I didn't do anything, did I?" Shiloh shot him a cold look. Her black dress perfectly matched her frosty, unapproachable aura, making her look both elegant and dangerous. "You're asking what you did? You groped my chest more than once! "Don't try to deny it. You've always been a little inappropriate, Andrew, but I didn't think you'd have the guts to try that with me. If it weren't for the fact that you've treated me decently in the past, you'd already be dead." Her tone was so calm that it was obvious she was not joking. Looking at her icy gaze, Andrew's expression grew complicated. "So that's what you think of me? I swear, I was only trying to save you, nothing else. I didn't have any other thoughts, I promise." Shiloh turned away and looked toward the

    Andrew had followed Shiloh down, experiencing several turbulent currents at the lake bottom before finally managing to grab hold of her. Her small face was pale, her eyes tightly shut, but he did not look too worried. She was alive, just unconscious. The real problem now was how to get out. The cave was completely visible from where he stood, and the only exit seemed to be the same way he came in: through the water. However, there was no way he was going back down there. Beneath that lake were hidden currents, whirlpools, and a mysterious force. This strange force was incredibly sinister, able to control those strands of waterweeds. If one got caught by those, there was almost no chance of survival. They would be dragged deeper and deeper until they drowned. Andrew thought about that eerie force for a while, but he still could not figure out what it was. At first, he had suspected some sort of underwater creature, like a giant serpent or a mythical beast. Yet clearly, that w
