Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3181 Meanwhile, back in Holtrien, Chetvine. Inside Guillermo's Ravencrest Manor, Guillermo held the now- silent telephone receiver. His face cycled between pale and flushed in waves of anger and shock. His two most trusted men stood nearby, Lorenzo from the Owens family, and Jose Castillo, who had been forcibly elevated to the martial god level by Guillermo over the last half year. "Mr. Vazquez, what happened with Mr. Topsfield Senior?" Lorenzo asked. Guillermo's expression darkened as he spoke through gritted teeth. "That useless fool seems to be injured." Lorenzo's jaw dropped.

"Alfredo is the Sword Saint, a peak martial god. Who could possibly hurt him?" Guillermo clenched his teeth, taking a long moment before responding. "Andrew. That little bastard is back! | never expected he'd have the guts to go after Alfredo the moment he crossed the border. If he didn't have some incredible martial power or a deadly trump card, there was no way he would dare to challenge Alfredo!" Lorenzo's face shifted from shock to complete disbelief. "We ---- got word from overseas that Andrew was coming back, didn't we? But how did he get here so fast? And why would he dare confront Mr.

Topsfield Senior? Could Reginald have come back with him?" Guillermo shook his head firmly. "That's impossible. Reginald entered the Veiled Paradise. That's confirmed beyond any doubt. Jose lounged nearby, looking utterly bored. "Why are you both so worked up? So the kid came back. Big deal. What's he going to do, flip the world upside down? We can't handle Reginald, sure. But Andrew? | think he's no problem at all." Guillermo sneered coldly.

"That reckless, arrogant attitude of yours is going to get you killed one day." Jose calmly poured himself a cup of tea, sipped it, and set it down with deliberate ease. Only then did he speak again. "Mr. Vazquez, | really don't appreciate that comment. Since when does a peak martial god in Holtrien just die on command? | am what | am today because you personally helped me get here. Andrew barely escaped from Holtrien two years ago. What could he have possibly accomplished in that time?

At most, he broke through whatever was holding back his energy core and stumbled onto some lucky break." ---- He continued, "But even heaven-defying opportunities need time to develop and mature. Mr. Vazquez, every time you deal with that father-son duo, you lose your cool and panic. Tell you what... Wherever Andrew is, I'll go meet him myself. Truth is, | actually kind of like the kid. "When | see him, | won't kill him outright. I'll just send him back where he came from. As long as he agrees never to return to Holtrien again, | think letting him go is perfectly reasonable. Huh? Mr.

Vazquez, why do you look so awful?" As Jose continued his confident speech, he noticed Guillermo staring at him as if he were a complete idiot. That was when he finally shut his mouth, clearly confused. Guillermo said icily, "Are you deaf? Didn't you just hear that Alfredo was already seriously injured by Andrew? Do you really think you're stronger or tougher than Alfredo?" Jose shrugged casually. "Maybe Alfredo really did get hurt. But who actually did it? We don't know yet. I refuse to believe Andrew was capable of that. Mr. Vazquez, you shouldn't think that way either.

It's too ridiculous, too unrealistic. It makes people think maybe you're getting old and losing your edge."
