Semua Bab Rising from the Ashes: Bab 2571 - Bab 2580

Deep in the murky lake water, Andrew swam downward, continuously descending. The deeper he went, the more he realized that this seemingly small lake was actually quite deep. Judging by where he was now, he figured he must be at least 15 feet down. It was night outside, and even darker underwater, so visibility was almost nonexistent. Even so, Andrew's eyes could still see in the darkness and was not completely blind down here. As always, his powerful abilities were enough to support him through anything. He pushed aside the waterweeds in front of him and headed toward the center of the lake. Strangely enough, he could not see any trace of the woman in black who had entered the water earlier. Onyx and Ivory had chased after her, and from the conversation he had overheard, he could confirm she had already been seriously injured by Alfredo beforehand. Hence, when she fell into the water, she was probably already on death's door. There was no reason she would be gone without a trac

Over at the guest rooms, Luna and Valerie had already woken up. Both sat in silence, their brows furrowed tightly. Sheena sat across from them and said calmly, "So that was what happened. He went out this afternoon, and there's been no word since. But he should be fine… I know what Andrew's capable of." Valerie sneered. "Or maybe he saw how powerful Alfredo was and ran off with his tail between his legs." Sheena arched a brow, her tone suddenly playful. "Ms. Reyes, you're so strange. You seem to hate Andrew, yet here you are, following him all the way to the Eastern Regions like a lovesick puppy. So tell me, what exactly do you want?" Valerie said coldly, "That's none of your business, Ms. Lloyd. But you got one thing right, I do hate him." Sheena did not seem bothered and turned to Luna with a smile. "I still like General Phelan better. Even though you're both gorgeous and both incredibly capable, Luna would be more suitable as my sister-in-law." Luna's face suddenly flush

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

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 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
