Chapter 281

Penulis: Only For You
In the West End district, Andrew and Dylan received a grand welcome from Natasha.

"Mr. Lloyd, I never expected you to make such bold moves. You even managed to shock someone like me," Dylan admitted, still in awe of Andrew's earlier actions and words.

Dylan could not shake off the memory of how Andrew had brazenly called Natasha an airhead and lectured her to read more books as if she were just one of his men. He found it incredible that Andrew dared to act this way on someone else's turf, surrounded by their elite fighters.

What bewildered Dylan even more was that Natasha did not get angry after being scolded. Instead, she switched sides, driving Atlas and Finley away while graciously hosting him and Andrew.

As one of Jayrodale's crime lords, Dylan had never felt this triumphant.

"I'm not as remarkable as you suggest," Andrew said calmly. "She simply came to her senses and realized she couldn't let Northern District become too powerful, and once I pointed that out, Atlas and

    Luther let out a sigh. "At this point, there's nothing left for me to hide. Andrew, I'm one of the few who know the identity of the person who placed that final seal on your energy core. However, first of all, I hadn't been in contact with you, and second, the timing wasn't right before, so I never shared this secret with you. Fortunately, today I can tell you everything."Andrew's fists clenched involuntarily, but his voice remained eerily calm. Nonetheless, that did not mean he was not angry or did not want to kill someone. Sometimes, the deepest emotions were expressed through stillness, and beneath that stillness raged a turbulent wave."The world only knows Guillermo as Holtrien's National Advisor, a man who controls everything with an iron fist, unmatched in strategy and the greatest martial artist alive." Luther began slowly, his tone weary with age. "But in truth, Guillermo wasn't born invincible. He was originally a down-and-out scholar who spent his first 30 years steal

    Around 7.30 p.m., Andrew, who had been meditating the whole time, suddenly clutched his chest. A heartbeat later, he spat out a mouthful of thick, black blood.Valerie panicked and rushed over. "Are you okay? Andrew, you're scaring me!"She held him up while Luther hurried over, checked him quickly, and let out a relieved laugh. He said, "He's fine. This is good news. That was the stagnant blood clogging his system. Now that it's out, his body can function better."Andrew stood and tried moving around, and his entire presence felt completely renewed.Valerie lit up. "Andrew, did you recover?"Andrew shook his head with a helpless smile. "Silly girl, it's not that easy."He turned to Luther and carefully chose his words. "Mr. Johnston, this ancient manual truly has miraculous healing properties. However, my meridians and energy core are either destroyed or sealed, so I can't make any further progress. At this rate, the most I can hope for is to regain normal mobility. But breaki

    Luther hurriedly picked it up and looked at it, finding it had lost all its miraculous qualities. In fact, it looked like an old, worn-out book. He looked shocked and quickly flipped through the contents, only to find that every page was blank.Luther could not believe it and kept flipping back and forth, still not seeing any writing.The entire book had become blank!It was as if the contents inside had vanished into thin air, or rather, had been absorbed by someone.Valerie was dumbfounded. "This…"Luther suddenly looked up, staring at Andrew in a daze. Meanwhile, Andrew had already entered a trance-like state. He sat down on the ground, eyes tightly closed, hands forming a strange gesture. Suddenly, a gust of wind swept straight through Trinity Grand Hall like a blast from nowhere. More and more wind rushed inside, circling the hall with growing force.Valerie gasped. "Mr. Johnston, Andrew is…"Luther's voice wavered. "He's merging with the world. It seems reading the scrip

    Andrew continued flipping through the scripture, reading ten lines at a glance. He was even going faster and faster.Watching his movements, Luther and Valerie stood in stunned silence.Even with Luther's vast experience and steady composure, his breathing grew increasingly heavy."Mr. Johnston, Andrew has already flipped past half of this scripture, hasn't he?" Valerie looked like she had seen a ghost. "Didn't you say that you could only turn halfway through before being unable to continue?"Luther said nothing, just staring intently at Andrew's movements.Andrew showed no intention of stopping and continued flipping through the ancient scripture. Finally, his movements came to an abrupt halt.Pain flashed across his brow and face. It seemed there was something he could not accept or comprehend.Luther breathed a sigh of relief while simultaneously growing tense. "How is it, Andrew?"Without realizing it, he was speaking with the natural affection of an elder who had grown to

    Luther laughed. "Relax. This scripture can't be burned by fire or damaged by water. Even a full-force strike from a martial god wouldn't leave a mark on it."Valerie gritted her teeth and used both hands, yet she still could not flip a single page. "What is this ridiculous thing? I'm done!" she finally snapped in frustration.If word got out that she could not even flip a page, she would be the laughingstock. Yet, the truth was exactly that.So, she asked resentfully, "Sir, how many pages can you flip?"Luther lifted one hand. "Five pages. This book has at least 100 pages, and if I ever break past the martial god's peak and ascend into the level above mortals, I should be able to flip half of it."Valerie stared at him, stunned. "This book is that powerful?"It sounded unbelievable that only someone above a martial god could flip half of it.Luther turned to Andrew with a smile. "Give it a try."However, Andrew shook his head. "Sir, you might be mistaken about something. My e

    Very soon, the entire Trinity Grand Hall was empty except for Andrew, Valerie, and Luther.Valerie looked curious and asked, "Mr. Johnston, why did you send everyone else out? Are you saying you don't trust your own people?"Luther shook his head. "It isn't about trust, but what I'm about to show is our sect's secret. Besides the head of Mount Lourneau, no one else is allowed to witness it."Valerie let out an "Oh," then asked, "So do I leave too?"Luther replied, "You don't need to."She frowned. "Why? Am I not considered an outsider?"Luther chuckled. "You might be an outsider, but there are things you won't understand anyway. So whether you're here or not doesn't matter."Valerie stared at him. Her fists tightened, and she almost swung at the old man.Meanwhile, Luther had already walked toward Andrew. Without making any noticeable move, he raised his hand and swept it through the air as if drawing invisible lines. Immediately, a book materialized out of nowhere and floated
