Chapter 119

Author: Only For You
Harvey scoffed. "As if our prestigious family would need to borrow any money. The very idea is laughable."

"Actually, Harvey, Nelson did mention you owed the bank money," Christina said. "I was planning to discuss that with you."

"Christie, do you really think that's possible?" Harvey smiled.

Irene jumped in and defended Harvey. "That idiot Nelson deserved to get fired for spreading such lies. My future son-in-law could easily pull out 150 million or even 1.5 billion if he wanted to."

Harvey waved dismissively, exuding poise and confidence. "Mrs. Stevens, you must be joking. A few hundred million, or even billions—that's a big deal. But to owe just a few million? Please, I wouldn't even bother with something so small."

Andrew stood up, clearly done with the conversation. Christina frowned and asked, "Andrew, are you leaving already?"

He replied flatly, "If I stay any longer, I'm afraid my intelligence will take a hit."

Christina's face darkened. "Fine, Mr. Lloyd. Don't l

  • Rising from the Ashes   Chapter 2622

    On this journey to the Eastern Regions' Swordhaven Keep, Andrew's power had advanced in two major ways. First, he had absorbed Blood Pith, which brought his physical constitution and the density of his true energy to their absolute limits. Even though he was not a martial emperor just yet, his body's strength and energy reserves were already comparable to those of one. Regardless, the third seal of his energy core was still locked. If that final seal ever broke, he would undoubtedly experience a terrifying breakthrough, with his power being completely unleashed. Nonetheless, for now, that was not possible. The second improvement was that he had obtained an unexpectedly divine weapon, which was the Godslayer he now held in his hands. Whether this greatsword could truly slay gods, Andrew did not know. However, he was certain it could cut down a martial emperor without a problem. Right now, he stood alone against two Martial Emperors from the Eastern Regions. "Fool! You're

    Reginald remained unmoved and simply asked, "What's wrong? Are you scared?" Guillermo roared, "Speak! Or I'll bury you right here in Holtrien, right now." Reginald showed nothing but disdain. He even stepped forward personally to straighten Guillermo's collar. He simply said, "Mr. Vazquez, you've always been a meticulous man, demanding perfection in every aspect of yourself. Your collar is a mess. Don't get so worked up, because you're still just human. You're not God. Human power, after all, has its limits. "No matter how hard people try, no matter how well they present themselves, they can never truly be perfect. Although we're all hypocrites, calling the final realm of martial arts the 'martial god'." He scoffed and added, "Martial god… How fragile must one's heart be, how greedy must one's desires be, to deceive oneself like that? Is a martial god truly a god? No. In fact, sometimes, a martial god is just cattle, just livestock. That's why there's something beyond that.

    Guillermo stared at him for a long while, then could not help but shake his head. "There's just no dealing with you. Well then, I'll see you off here. While you've fortunately become a player, Andrew is still on my chessboard." Reginald sighed and said, "Andrew's path is ultimately one he has to walk himself. Actually, I don't want to interfere too much. And Mr. Vazquez, you might not believe this, but I'll say it anyway." Guillermo frowned. "What are you trying to say?" Reginald grinned. "I want to tell you that even though Andrew's energy core is sealed and he seems to still be on the board… He might not be a chess piece anymore." Guillermo snorted coldly. "If he's on the chessboard and not a chess piece, what else could he be?" Reginald shook his head. "I'm not entirely sure, but I know he's not a chess piece. My original plan was to keep him from setting foot in Chetvine until his energy core was fully restored. Yet, his actions greatly exceeded my expectations. He retu

    Reginald walked alone, silently making his way through the forest. Then, he stopped, turned around, and said flatly, "Alright, you've been following me for a while now. Come on out." Behind a tree, branches and leaves rustled, and a pale, beardless man emerged. Just looking at his face, the man appeared to be somewhere in his mid-40s. He was not particularly handsome, but he had an exceptionally refined and scholarly appearance. However, his eyes were deep and carried an indescribable weariness. They betrayed that his actual age was far more than just 40. In fact, Guillermo was already 96 years old this year. He had been playing chess with the world as his board for 50 years. As soon as he appeared, he smiled and approached Reginald. Seeing this, Reginald frowned. "Speak. If it's the same old talk, urging me to get lost… Then, rest assured, after I give the sword to Andrew, I'll leave Holtrien." Guillermo clasped his hands behind his back and smiled. "No rush. How about we h

    Protected by the energy barrier around him, Reginald rose steadily into the air. He ascended powerfully through the endless storm of sword energy until he came to a stop directly in front of Alfredo. That same, soul-crushing motion appeared once more. Reginald extended a hand, his palm aimed squarely at Alfredo. "Time to lie down, Alfredo," he stated flatly. An unseen force pierced through the void. Alfredo did not even know how to resist. His body suddenly shook violently, and his entire frame exploded with crackling sounds. Endless blood mist rose into the air. "Mr. Topsfield Senior!" Onyx and Ivory screamed, their voices full of despair. Yet, it was useless. Alfredo's face was already blank with shock as his stiff body plummeted straight down, crashing into the ground. Firefly followed, embedding itself into the dirt beside his head. Alfredo twitched, barely conscious, his fingers trembling as he tried to raise a hand to point at Reginald. "R-Reginald…" he rasped, bu

  • Rising from the Ashes   Chapter 2617

    Alfredo's entire body convulsed. In that instant, his arm felt like it was about to split apart from the strain. He could not hold back a deep grunt of pain as the shock hit him. Before Alfredo could recover, Reginald had already taken a step forward and vanished, reappearing right in front of his face. He raised his hand and aimed straight for Alfredo's head. With bloodshot eyes, Alfredo roared, "Get the hell away from me!" He tried to lift his sword for a counterattack, but Godslayer's resistance suddenly peaked. Instead of obeying him, the sword trembled violently, and he let out a pained scream as it slipped from his grasp and fell from the sky. Reginald's palm, glowing with raw energy, pressed hard against Alfredo's forehead. Alfredo's head jerked back, his hair flying wildly as his eyes bulged wide in agony. A guttural scream tore from his throat before a mouthful of blood burst out, scattering through the air like crimson rain. "Mr. Topsfield Senior!" Onyx and Ivory
