Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3345 Andrew's expression stayed cold. "Alfredo is supposed to be the successor of the Sword Sect, and he's sitting behind the walls of Azure Gate doing absolutely nothing? What is he, too shy to come out and play?" Franz forced a bitter smile. "He's probably still angry. When we retumed to the country, you put him in his place, so he's holding a grudge." Andrew replied flatly, "Then I'll go teach him another lesson. That sword-swinging idiot is watching his own people die in front of him, and he's doing nothing.

Looks like | went too easy on him last time." With that, he carried his sword alone and stormed into Swordhaven Keep. Alfredo's disciples had originally shut their gates to all visitors. However, the moment they saw Andrew, their faces turned pale, and they trembled in fear. Andrew made a beeline for Alfredo, and the disciples and even Alfredo's sons did not dare make a sound. They stepped aside on their own. In the main hall of Swordhaven Keep, Andrew finally saw Alfredo ---- sitting leisurely. The latter was polishing his sword with his head lowered, unaware it was Andrew who had entered.

Hearing only footsteps, he said impatiently, "| told you I'm not seeing anyone. Why are you still bothering me? Do you have a death wish?" Andrew sneered. "You're the one with a death wish." He stepped forward and slashed out with his sword. After the initial shock, Alfredo flew into a rage. He raised his sword to block and shouted, "Andrew, don't push it too far! Whether Swordhaven Keep fights or stays out of this war is my decision. Who do you think you are, forcing my hand like this? Do you think I have no pride?" Andrew struck again, driving him into a comer.

His face was blank, his voice flat. "Mr. Topsfield, your pride means nothing to me. As far as I'm concerned, you're a clown." "How dare you!" Alfredo exploded. With a thunderous crash, Andrew's greatsword came down. It slammed Alfredo to the ground, pressing him there as sweat poured down his face and his expression twisted in fury. "Andrew, don't push me too far!" Alfredo was frantic, his fury spilling over. ---- The last time Andrew had dealt with him, right after returning to the country, he had already been humiliated beyond belief.

Now he had chosen to shut himself away in protest, wanting to show that he would not be coerced by anyone. Andrew said coldly, "Don't force me to kill you. This is your last chance. And the Eight Ancient Sects that should be there are already there. Swordhaven Keep will not be the exception. Julius, Byron, and Guillermo are all dead. Do you want to go join them?" Alfredo's mind exploded in shock. "Y-You killed them? Andrew, you..." Andrew grinned, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "What? You want to ask how | could do something like that?

Right now, I'm thinking about killing you too, idiot. So are you going to fight, or not?" "| would rather die than be threatened into anything!" Alfredo roared back. Andrew's greatsword surged with overwhelming force and drove Alfredo straight into the golden floor tiles. Then, Andrew stepped on his face and body several times. With two choking cries, Alfredo spat out mouthfuls of blood. ---- Humiliated and furious, he rasped, "Andrew, are you really going to keep doing this to me?" Andrew did not reply. He simply struck Alfredo's chest with a palm.

Alfredo spat blood again and finally understood that in Andrew's hands, he was nothing but prey. "You've already advanced to Beyond Mortal... Wait! D-Don't kill me! Ill join the war. I'l fight!" Just like that, the fight went out of him entirely. Andrew's smile turned sinister. "Now you agree? Don't you think it's a little late?" Outside the hall, the disciples of Swordhaven Keep suddenly heard a piercing scream, and every one of them turned pale. Their master, their untouchable, larger-than-life master, was suffering miserably inside.
