DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 561-570
Chapter 561
Swoosh!
Streaks of silver light flashed in the air as the needles were poked into Mr. Walker’s acupoints.
Mr. Walker was heavily injured.
Andrius had to use the needles to hold his pulse and stop his bleeding, or else he would die in a matter of
seconds.
After that, he called Athena.
“Athena, your master is injured. He’s at the Royal Gardens. Come over right now.”
Then, Andrius brought Mr. Walker into the house.
Athena soon appeared.
“Master! Master! What happened to you?” Athena broke down in tears when she saw her master’s injuries. She knelt down before him and tears rolled down her cheeks.
“He’s heavily injured. There are multiple lethal wounds on him.” Andrius had briefly checked the man’s injuries when he saw him, and now he checked them more carefully. He asked, “Do you have any idea who did this? Does he have any enemies or anything?”
Athena wiped her tears and sobbed silently. “Actually, a few days ago, Master told me his old nemesis came and wanted to fight him. Master didn’t want that person to cause any trouble here, so he went to him instead. Then, this happened.”
No wonder. Andrius‘ heart tightened.
“Mr. Moonshade, my master…” Athena looked at Andrius with her bloodshot teary eyes.
“Huh?”
Andrius frowned. He found traces of poison in Mr. Walker’s body. It was hidden and would not have been noticed had he not examined the man’s body meticulously.
Athena saw the shift of expression on Andrius‘ face and it fueled her concerns. She asked hurriedly, “Mr. Moonshade, what happened?”
“I found traces of poison in Mr. Walker’s body. It’s going to be tricky.” Andrius explained, “The poison has spread across his veins and body. I have poked some needles in him to stop the spread of the poison.”
“Poison? My master has been poisoned?!”
Athena’s face turned pale as paper. Then, a sudden realization struck and she knelt down on her knees. Mr. Moonshade, please save my master! Please!”
Andrius helped her up. His brows remained furrowed but he said, “The poison has spread into his organs. There’s only one way to save him now.”
“What is it?” Athena looked at him with teary eyes, glistening with hope.
“We fight poison with poison. Usually, there is a certain time frame to cure the poison. Once it exceeds the time frame, the poison will spread all over the body, and not even special medicine can save him. We can only fight poison with poison now.
“If Mr. Walker makes it, he will recover and improve his cultivation to new heights.”
“Then, what if he doesn’t make it?” Athena asked.
“He will be dead.”
It was unnecessary for Andrius to keep it a secret from Athena.
He then added, “Athena, you have to be prepared. Time is running out for Mr. Walker.”
Athena clenched her teeth. She bit the bullet and said, “Alright. Mr. Moonshade, please save my master.
Do whatever you must. I hope he can make it.”
Andrius proceeded with the procedure.
He drew a drop of blood from his finger and mixed it with herbs to make a special medicine. The important ingredient was Andrius‘ blood.
Chapter 562
While Andrius was still serving at the frontline, one of his soldiers was poisoned by the enemy and had been a lot worse than Mr. Walker now.
The soldier lost his sanity and would bite anyone he saw.
While Andrius was treating him, the soldier bit his arm and started sucking his blood.
To everyone’s surprise, the soldier started to calm down and the symptoms were relieved before Andrius even started his treatment.
From that day onwards, Andrius knew that his blood could be used as the antidote. He started to use his blood to make antidotes for soldiers, curing them in different situations.
However, he himself had no idea why his blood could act as an antidote.
Athena’s jaw dropped when she saw the scene, but she did not question Andrius‘ professionalism.
Andrius then fed the medicine to Mr. Walker.
Then, he used some other herbs to make a special pill for Athena.
“Athena, I have something to do and I must go. Stay here and watch your master. If he can’t make it, give him this pill and it will relieve him of his pain. Let’s hope he doesn’t need it.”
Athena’s hands shuddered. She clenched her teeth tightly to prevent her tears from dropping.
“Mr. Moonshade, thank you, on behalf of my master.”
Andrius nodded and left the Royal Gardens.
The night was quiet and chilly.
A number of guests were gathered at Skyview Villa, and in just a short while, the place became crowded with people. There were almost a thousand people present.
“Mr. Sunner, Jackson Lombre, here at your command!”
“Mr. Sunner, Johnson Jenn, here at your service.”
“Mr. Sunner, Jake Gyland, is here.”
Other than the affiliates, the dignitaries who wished to curry favor with Sunny came as soon as they picked up the news.
“Great.”
Sunny stood on the balcony and looked down at the mini army he had gathered. His eyes flashed coldly and a vicious grin appeared on his face.
“I, Sunny Sunner, thank all of you for being here. When the time is up, destroy the Crestfalls and capture Andrius Moonshade!”
Sumeria had a restless night due to the dignitaries preparing for their siege on the Crestfalls.
The common citizens locked their doors and shut their windows to prevent being caught in the crossfire.
On the next day, before Harry even left the house, he received a call.
“Harry, this is getting out of hand. This isn’t as simple as we thought.”
The man who spoke was Tommy, who Harry had contacted yesterday.
717
Harry asked hurriedly, “What happened?”
“I just got news that the Sunners summoned more than a thousand of their affiliates and dignitaries. They are going after Andrius Moonshade.”
Harry was mortified.
He knew Sunny did not summon all those affiliate families and dignitaries just to capture Andrius. The man was going to destroy the Crestfalls and make an example out of them!
Sunny Sunner was serious about this!
“Thank you, Tommy!”
“Harry, I can’t help you with this. Best of luck.”
After the call, Harry drove to Dream’s Waterfront.
“Andrius, get out here!”
He went straight to Andrius‘ room and slammed on his door.
Luna was frightened by her father’s grumpiness. She asked hurriedly, “Dad, what happened?”
“Sh*t happened!”
Harry did not explain because he had no idea what exactly had happened. He continued slamming on Andrius‘ door.
Then, the door opened.
Chapter 563
“Andrius!” Harry stared at Andrius coldly and bellowed, “Tell me what did you do to Sunny Sunner! Why did he summon more than a thousand of his affiliate families?”
A thousand affiliate families?
What a commotion!
Andrius looked at Harry, who was obviously furious, and said leisurely, “I told you that you have nothing to do with me coming back. Sunny Sunner let me go because he promised to compete with me. All the men he summoned are here because of me.”
He sounded casual as if he was chatting with his friends.
Luna and Harry were shocked by the revelation and almost had a breakdown.
“Are you out of your mind, Andrius?!” Harry’s finger pointing at Andrius was shaking. He shouted, “Who do you think you are? What gives you the confidence to compete with the Sunners? If you have a death wish. you can hang yourself or jump off a building!
“Why did you drag us into this mess with the Sunners?!”
Harry’s bulging eyeballs almost popped out from his eye sockets due to anger, and he was spewing saliva as he shouted.
Luna wore a frosty look in response to Andrius‘ words. She said coldly, “Andrius, I have never treated you poorly, so why are you doing this to us?*
The Sunners were a strong family that not even the Crestfalls had the audacity to offend, yet Andrius challenged Sunny to this so–called competition.
It was suicidal!
Thud, thud, thud.
Then, hurried footsteps sounded outside the house.
Belarus and the other Crestfalls had arrived.
Belarus looked at Andrius with a bitter look. “Andrius, I just got news that Sunny Sunner has gathered his affiliate families and dignitaries. What is going on?”
Before Andrius could say a word, Harry interrupted and spewed the truth, “Andrius is going to fight Sunner Sunner.”
His words shocked all of the family members, and it caused an uproar among them.
“Andrius Moonshade!”
“Who do you think you are? Why did you go to war with Sunny Sunner? Look into the mirror!”
“Andrius, you boastful b*stard! You dragged us into this!”
“You are just a caveman from the west! What are you going to fight Sunny Sunner with? His dog is even bigger than you! Why did you drag us into this!?”
Everyone criticized Andrius, blaming him for what happened.
“Stop barking like some crazy dogs!” Andrius bellowed, silencing everyone. “I will deal with this. None of you have to worry.”
His arrogant glare fueled their anger.
“Arrogant!”
“Andrius, who do you think you are? Do you have any idea how strong the Sunners are?”
“The Sunners have a powerful Pseudo–Grandmaster martial artist with them. You are just some caveman! Do you even know how strong a Pseudo–Grandmaster is?”
“Arrogant young man. You have no idea how high the sky is. When the Pseudo–Grandmaster is sent to hunt you down, not even your bones are left.”
A Grandmaster was so powerful that even a piece of leaf could be a dagger in his hand.
A Grandmaster could utilize his qi to attack enemies.
An active Grandmaster could set up a sect and be respected by many.
When retired, a Grandmaster would retire from the scene and enjoy countless fortune and fame.
Even though the Sunners only had a Pseudo–Grandmaster, it was already enough for them to reach the peak of Sumeria’s hierarchy of power, or even the entire East River State.
Andrius was good at fighting, but he was nothing before the Pseudo–Grandmaster.
“Enough.” Belarus was irritated by the noises. He roared to silence everyone immediately.
“Andrius, the Pseudo–Grandmaster is powerful. You should run away.”
Belarus had no confidence of going against a Pseudo–Grandmaster as well.
“As long as you are away, the Sunners won’t be able to get to you and they can’t do anything about it. If Sunny Sunners are here for us, I will lead my family against him. He might not wipe us all out.”
Harry, George and the others were unhappy with their father and grandfather’s decision.
Andrius had made such a big mistake, yet Belarus continued to defend him. The favoritism was too much. Other families would protect one’s own blood rather than an outsider, but Belarus acted the
opposite way.
Harry wanted to voice his disagreement, but then a junior came in in a hurry and said hurriedly, “Sh*t! Things have just gotten worse! There are a lot of people outside, and we are surrounded! They are from the Sunners. They want us to prepare coffins for ourselves!”
Chapter 564
“What?”
Everyone was shocked.
Sunny’s men had arrived and surrounded Dream’s Waterfront, attempting to wipe out the Crestfalls.
“Dad, what are we going to do?”
“Yeah! What are we going to do?”
“They are here for business! We have to act!”
Everyone panicked.
They all looked at Belarus, hoping for a solution to the situation.
“Act? There’s nothing you can do because there’s only one way left for all of you!”
Before Belarus could say a word, a frosty voice came from outside the door.
Everyone looked outside and saw a man in his 40s. The man had a stern expression, and the killing intent on his expression was brazen.
His eyes sharply scanned over all the Crestfalls and ultimately landed on Andrius.
The vicious glare in his eyes flashed and his lips curled into a wicked grin. “Hand over Andrius
Moonshade. I will rip him to pieces!”
Sunny squeezed those vicious words out of his clenched teeth.
Many of the Crestfalls breathed a sigh of relief because they assumed Sunny was here for Andrius. They believed they had nothing to do with the grudge between Andrius and Sunny.
If it was not for Belarus, the others would have handed Andrius over to Sunny already.
Belarus‘ expression turned bitter when he heard Sunny. Despite the pressure, he bit the bullet and tried to negotiate with Sunny, “Master Sunner. I know Andrius is a little reckless, but his mistake is not punishable by death.
“How about this? Name a price and we will pay it. Even if it costs us every penny, we will make sure to meet your expectations.”
If money could solve the problem, it would be great.
“Money?” Sunny scoffed. The offer did not diminish his anger at all. “The Sunners have been in the business longer than you, and you are offering me money?
“Belarus Crestfall, I respect you for being an elder, so I’ll tell you this won’t end with you paying me. Andrius Moonshade crippled my son, and this won’t end until I take his life!”
Sunny was serious, leaving no space for negotiation.
“Master Sunner!” Belarus looked at Sunny and refused to step down. “Andrius is my grandson–in–law! I cannot allow you to take his life!”
“Hahaha!” Sunny cackled loudly when he heard Belarus. “Old man, if you want to put it that way, don’t blame me for getting rough today! You and your family will go down together!”
Then, the affiliates and dignitaries behind Sunny stepped up in unison, trying to pressure Belarus with the overwhelming numbers.
Harry, George, and the others were shocked.
They tried to talk Belarus out of the situation, but before they could, Belarus stood firm and said loudly,” Then give it your best shot. The Crestfalls have rooted themselves in Sumeria for so long, and we are not made out of paper!”
Then, Belarus called his affiliates, friends, and people he knew in front of Sunny.
Some of them were government officials, some of them were generals in the army, and some were dignitaries from the capital.
However, when all of them heard Sunny Sunner’s name, they declined to help.
“Master Crestfall, I’m sorry. My wife is giving birth!”
“Master Crestfali, I have an important meeting to attend! Let’s talk next time!”
“Master Crestfall, my back hurts! I’ll call you later!”
Without an exception, all the people Belarus called declined him.
They came up with all kinds of excuses to brush Belarus off because they refused to stand against the Sunners or get involved.
Belarus‘ expression turned bitter.
Chapter 565
“Old man…” Sunny could not help but laugh at Belarus. “It seems like the Crestfalls aren’t that likable! You made so many calls yet none came!”
As soon as his voice subsided, the dignitaries behind him laughed as well.
“Who else would be here for the Crestfalls after learning about your name, Master Sunner?!”
“What kind of friends do you have there? You are in trouble, but none of them answered your request for help and would rather watch you die!”
“With that many of us, even if anyone is here to help the Crestfalls, it won’t be enough!”
The group of affiliates and dignitaries continued to ridicule and laugh at Belarus.
Belarus expression looked grim, but he insisted on defending Andrius.
“Old man! I will give you one last chance!” Sunny glanced at Andrius and then explained, “Hand over half of the Crestfalls business and Andrius Moonshade, and I will spare your lives. If you insist on standing against me, then I can wipe out your family with just one thought.”
The man stepped up once more, increasing the pressure on Belarus.
“Father!” George was mortified. He said, “For the sake of the family, hand over half of the businesses! As for Andrius, just leave him! His life doesn’t matter!”
Harry said angrily, “Dad, we still can make a comeback if we don’t lose everything. We lost this battle, but we can still win the war! And… Master Sunner is targeting Andrius. It’s not our fault!”
When the two of them started to dissuade Belarus, the other younger ones echoed and agreed.
“Master Belarus, please look after the family and surrender Andrius! We can make a comeback!”
“Grandfather, Andrius is a jinx! He should be dead! Just leave him!”
“Yeah! He got this upon himself! What gives him the right to drag us all into this and pay for his mistakes
Everyone tried to dissuade Belarus. To them, losing Andrius would be the solution to their problem.
Moreover, New Moon Corporation had been doing well and its value had gone up. Handing half of the businesses would not hurt them too badly.
“Enough!”
Belarus was already angry, and now with his family trying to persuade him to abandon Andrius, it fueled his anger. His brows were raised as he shouted, “A bunch of cowards! If I hand over Andrius just because he demands me to, they will do the same and ask me to hand over one of you in the future!”
He had absolute power in the family. His voice sounded strong and indubitable, and he managed to silence everyone.
Then, Belarus looked at Sunny again. His aged face looked strong and determined. “Andrius is my grandson–in–law. I cannot just surrender him. If you want him, you will have to get through my body!”
Although he was not loud, everyone in Dream’s Waterfront heard him.
“Great! Very well!” Sunny laughed. A hint of vicious glare flashed in his narrowed eyes. “All of you, get Andrius Moonshade! Dead or alive! Those who stand in your way, kill them!”
His command excited the dignitaries, affiliates, and his bodyguards. All of them were eager to wipe out the Crestfalls and kill Andrius.
000-0
“Hold it right there!TM
“Don’t even think of hurting Mr. Moonshade with us around!”
“Sunny Sunner, if you want to hurt Andrius, you will have to go through our dead bodies!”
“Mr. Moonshade, so sorry we are late! We will never abandon you!”
A group of people entered.
Chapter 566
Some had lost an arm, some were limping, and some had bandages on their foreheads. They seemed to be a bunch of injured people.
They were armed with metal pipes, shovels, and other farming equipment, which made them look more like an angry mob, but they wore stern looks and appeared determined. They were the veteran soldiers who volunteered at the Valiant Institute.
Andrius protected them and the Valiant Institute, yet he became a target of the Sunners. After they learned of the news, they grouped up to support Andrius.
“Mr. Moonshade, we are so sorry. We just got the news. Are we late? Please don’t be mad at us,” said the leader of the bunch with a silly smile.
Andrius glanced at them.
All the veterans looked eager and honest. He could even see his own reflection in their passionate eyes
How adorable!
Andrius‘ heart felt warm. He said, “No. I’m not mad. How could I be mad at you guys?”
The veterans smiled. Then, they stood in front of Andrius with their makeshift weapons and stared at Sunny and his men cautiously.
Belarus looked at the veterans with deep thoughts.
Luna looked at Andrius in surprise. She did not expect him to be so influential.
“Hahaha!” Sunny cackled when he saw a bunch of crippled soldiers. He was scornful and disrespectful.
Then, he pointed at the veterans arrogantly and ridiculed them, “Andrius Moonshade, these are your backup and support? If so, you can choose your coffin now. Do you want a sliding one or a flipped one?
Hahaha…”
Sunny laughed out loud again.
Amidst his contemptuous laughter, a shadowy figure appeared before everyone.
The scrawny figure slightly hunched his back, but his eyes glowed green. It was the Emerald Tiger, Simon
Barn!
Crack!
As soon as he landed, the concrete beneath his feet cracked and spread outwards rapidly.
In a blink of an eye, the entire concrete floor cracked. Intense killing intentions swept over the place like a typhoon. It was so suffocating that the veterans had a hard time breathing.
“I–it’s Simon Bard, the Emerald Tiger!” one of the younger Crestfalls recognized the man and screamed in fear.
“W–what? Simon Barn?”
“The notorious killer who massacred all of the Lowes in one night? The vicious killer who did not even spare the old and the young?”
“It’s him! I heard that all the Lowes had their hearts ripped out by the killer. The hearts were then arranged on the floor to spell his name!”
“We’re over! We’re done for!”
“I don’t want to die!”
“We’re doomed!”
When the Crestfalls heard the name, their faces turned pale, and the women and younger ones started to cry as if they heard the Grim Reaper’s calling.
“Since all of you have heard of my name…” Simon enjoyed reaping fear from his target. He grinned and continued, “Leave, and I will only kill Andrius Moonshade. Those who stand in my way shall taste death!”
When he spoke the word ‘death‘, a strong gale arrived, causing the leaves to rustle and the trees to shake. The whirring was extremely loud.
The sudden gale somehow made Simon look stronger and complimented his status as a Pseudo-
Grandmaster.
While the Crestfalls were in awe, they were grateful as well. If they surrendered Andrius, they would be fine.
“Dad, did you hear him? Let’s go!” Harry grabbed Belarus‘ arm and wanted to drag the man away.
Belarus, however, stood still with a frosty expression.
“You b*stards!” Belarus suddenly became furious. He roared, “I, Belarus Crestfall, am a righteous man. How could I have given birth to cowards? Let go of me!”
He scolded Harry and George which made him loosen their grip on his arms.
The younger Crestfalls did not want to be involved. They had Belarus surrounded.
“Grandfather, please leave!”
“It’s unwise to sacrifice the family for Andrius!”
“Andrius can die however many times he wants. He deserved it! You have done enough. You don’t need to care about him.”
Other than Luna, all the family members surrounded Belarus, attempting to persuade him to surrender
Andrius.
“You… What nonsense! How foolish!”
Belarus was already old. He was overwhelmed by the young ones as they dragged him to the side. Nonetheless, he did not stop reminding Andrius to leave immediately, “Andrius, run! Run!”
“Run?” Simon grinned. “You want to run away from me?”
As soon as his voice subsided, his figure flashed and appeared at the spot where Belarus was standing a moment ago. He was three meters away from Andrius.
Fwoosh!
The soldiers immediately stood in between him and Andrius.
They knew how powerful a Grandmaster was, but they were soldiers who had fought on the battlefield. They would never step away at a critical moment. From the moment they arrived, they had expected death.
“Simon Barn, even if you are a Pseudo–Grandmaster, I won’t let you lay a finger on Mr. Moonshade!”
“Simon Barn, over my dead body!”
The veterans were determined and strong.
“Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.” Simon clicked his tongue at the stubborn veterans. “If you are offering me your hearts, it would be rude of me not to rip them out of your chests.”
He spoke the most horrifying words in the most casual tone.
God knew how many people he had killed.
“Why don’t you give it a try?” Andrius stared at Simon Barn with a grin. “Simon Barn, I believe you must have cultivated a long time to reach Pseudo–Grandmaster. For the sake of your effort, you better get the hell out of Dream’s Waterfront. If you insist on capturing me, your decades of cultivation will be gone and you will die right here. Don’t regret your choice.”
Chapter 567
Andrius‘ words amused Sunny and his men, but since Simon did not say a word or respond, they dared not laugh out loud.
They covered their mouths and held their laughter back, but their shoulders twitched ceaselessly. They looked at Andrius as if he was an idiot.
What a joke!
Simon Barn was a Pseudo–Grandmaster, a killing machine, yet Andrius claimed he could make Simon lose all his cultivation and kill him on the spot.
What a ridiculous joke.
Who did he think he was? The Wolf King?
Harry, George, and the others were speechless.
Andrius was still being a brag at such a critical moment. He would probably be killed and cremated on the spot if he continued to talk big.
“Andrius Moonshade…” Simon was amused. He scoffed and said, “Since you are able to amuse me before I kill you, I shall grant you a swift death if you kneel, crawl over, and mutilate yourself.”
He then pointed at the veterans armed with makeshift weapons. “Your little army there… I can kill at least twice that number.”
Andrius was offended when Simon disrespected the veterans. He looked at his watch and said, “You have 50 seconds left.”
“Yo…” Simon was amused one more time. He grinned viciously. “Fine. 50 seconds it is. I want to see what you can do in 50 seconds.”
“40 seconds.”
Andrius remained emotionless.
Simon continued grinning but no longer teased Andrius. He took what looked like a pendant from his pocket.
It might have appeared like a pendant, but it was something organic, something that resembled a piece of jerky.
A jerky?
Half a second later, everyone was astonished as realization struck them. Their expressions shifted.
Simon was notoriously known for ripping his target’s heart out, so where did all the hearts go?
They were dried and made into a jerky–like pendant!
The jerky–like pendant reeked so badly that it assaulted everyone’s noses.
The Crestfalls were shaking.
Sunny and his men were shocked, but they dared not reveal their emotions on their faces.
Even the veterans, who had been on the battlefield and had gotten used to gory scenes, frowned.
Sick!
Chapter 567
Simon collected the hearts of his victims and made them into a dried pendant!
What a psycho!
Then, Simon sniffed the pendant, looking intoxicated.
He then looked at Andrius and licked his lips pervertedly. He said, “I have not updated the pendant for a long time. I think I can add a fresh one to it today. Consider it a celebration token. Hahaha…”
Andrius was unfazed. He looked at the watch and said, “Time’s up.”
“Oh?” Simon’s expression showed a hint of viciousness and killing intent flooded the place. “Speak, Andrius Moonshade! How do you want to die?”
The veterans then stepped up. They meant what they said and were ready to fight Simon.
Andrius would not send them to their death. He said sincerely, “Stand back! My fellow soldiers, I have received your kindness but this is beyond you. Just leave it to me.”
“No! Mr. Moonshade, before I fall, I will not let him touch you!”
“Mr. Moonshade, we are soldiers! We are not afraid!” The veterans insisted and were prepared for a deadly battle.
Chapter 568
Chapter 568
They stood in front of Andrius like a wall, protecting him.
Andrius was moved by their kindness. He smiled and said, “I started this, so I should put an end to this. Please trust me.”
The veterans exchanged confused looks. They were convinced when they heard the confidence in Andrius‘ voice.
They nodded and said, “Alright, Mr. Moonshade, we trust in you. But if you die, even if it costs us our lives, we will make him pay.”
The veterans sounded resolute.
Sunny and his men sneered at the foolish veterans.
Even Belarus and Luna were moved.
Everyone stepped back behind Andrius.
Andrius looked at Simon coldly. “Alright. Now, please start your show, but you only have one chance.”
Simon assumed that Andrius wanted to minimize the casualty, so he told the veterans to stand down. It would make him a martyr if he died. He was risking his life just to look good in front of the others.
It was smart, even to Simon. Unfortunately, it would cost him his life and he could only be so cool once in his life.
Swoosh!
Simon attacked without further ado.
Right before he could reach Andrius, a figure jumped in and intervened like a ghost.
Astonished, Simon was forced to attack the unknown figure first.
Bang!
Fists locked.
Simon was pushed back a few steps, but the mysterious figure stood firm.
Simon’s heart skipped a beat. He looked at the figure and realized it was Alan Walker, the man he had defeated a few days ago.
Andrius had saved the man, who was Athena’s master, a few days ago.
“Green–eyed dog, I’m protecting the Crestfalls!” Alan glared at Simon and said loudly, “You have one minute to leave, or I will break all your limbs.”
“You!” Simon was infuriated. “Alan Walker! Since you are alive, you should stay out of this. How foolish of you to come back here! I will make sure you die this time!”
Before his words subsided, Simon turned into a gale and rushed towards Alan. He had defeated Alan before. Even if Alan managed to stay alive, there was no way the man could surpass him in terms of strength in just a few days.
Killing the man would be as easy as slaughtering a dog.
“Bring it on!”
Chapter 568
Alan was calm in contrast to Simon’s anger. He put his left hand behind his back and fought using one hand.
“Aaaargh!” Simon felt insulted. He screamed and exerted even more strength through his hand.
Swoosh!
The punch was as strong as a tiger’s claw.
However, Alan dodged it with just a tilt of his head. He seized the chance and grabbed Simon’s wrist. He was so fast that it was jaw–dropping.
Simon underestimated his target, and when he realized Alan had gotten faster than him, it was already too late to react.
Alan caught Simon’s wrist. He pulled and pushed.
Crack!
Simon’s hand was crippled before he was sent flying and soon crashed on the ground.
“Y–you!” Simon struggled to get up on his feet. He stared at Alan in horror and stammered, “G- Grandmaster?!”
Chapter 569
Simon could no longer remain calm.
Grandmaster versus Pseudo–Grandmaster.
Despite the prefix, the difference in strength was massive. It was like heaven and earth apart.
Simon’s expression turned bitter as he looked at Alan with reverence.
Two days! It took Alan two days to ascend to Grandmaster!
Could the battle have given him insight into how to ascend?
Simon panicked.
Alan stepped forward, releasing an aura as powerful as the sun. He was like the lord that commanded Dream’s Waterfront.
“Green–eyed dog, leave now and I will spare your life. If you insist on dying…”
Alan raised his hand. His hand was similar to any hand of an elderly man, yet it pressured Simon terribly It felt like the hand of fate could strangle him alive!
“Retreat!”
Simon chose not to fight a real Grandmaster. He admitted defeat and squeezed the retreat order from his clenched teeth.
He then turned around and left the premises.
No one expected the sudden turn of events. Simon came for blood but was overpowered by Alan and was forced to leave in disgrace.
Absolute power!
Sunny and his men did not want to admit defeat, but if even the Emerald Tiger chose to leave, there was no reason for him and his men to stay anymore.
Sunny glared at Andrius viciously before he said, “Let’s go.”
The group of uninvited guests left like the wind.
Alan did not stop them. He knew that a caged beast was the most dangerous.
He had just ascended to Grandmaster and immediately made his way here. His cultivation had yet to stabilize, and he was actually pretty weak. If he forced Simon too harshly, the situation might turn on him.
With the crisis averted, Belarus went up immediately and thanked Alan.
“Thank you, Grandmaster! If not for you, we would all have been dead!”
“Thank you, Grandmaster!”
“Thank you for saving us!”
“Grandmaster, you defeated Simon Barn with just three moves! You are awesome!”
“Thank you for today, Grandmaster. We will be in trouble if not for you.”
The Crestfalls expressed their gratitude.
Alan nodded at them before he looked at Andrius. If not for Andrius, he would have already been a corpse.
Andrius was the true Grandmaster.
Everyone noticed his gaze and then saw Andrius standing there like a piece of log. They were annoyed “Andrius!” Harry shouted, “The Grandmaster saved you, and you don’t even know how to say thank you?”
Luna shouted, “Andrius, it’s because of this Grandmaster that the crisis is averted. You should thank him!”
“Yeah! He saved your life!”
“Andrius, be grateful and thank the Grandmaster!”
“Where are your manners? Why are you standing there? Trying to embarrass us?”
Everyone criticized him. They disliked Andrius and were afraid that his hot temper would offend the Grandmaster.
“Why should I thank him?” Andrius glanced at Alan and said, “He’s not saving me. He’s saving the Sunners. If he appeared later, that green–eyed dog and the Sunners would have suffered. Now that he released them and allowed them to live longer, you want me to thank him?”
His words shocked everyone.
Andrius was disrespecting the Grandmaster!
Arrogant!
He was trying to get himself killed.
They were afraid of him. They did not want to offend the Grandmaster because of Andrius.
All of them scolded him.
“Andrius! Stop being an ignorant, arrogant fool! Can you stop talking nonsense?”
“If you can do anything, why don’t you really do something?”

“Andrius, you are ignorant! Not only did you offend the Sunners, but you are also trying to piss off the Grandmaster?”
“Apologize now!”
Apologize?
Impossible.
Andrius then looked at Mr. Walker with a blank gaze. The meaning of his gaze was self–explanatory.
Mr. Walker had goosebumps all over his skin. He quickly calmed the crowd down and said, “It’s okay Mr Moonshade is a righteous man who stands up for the weak. He’s a role model. Besides, my student, Athena, is Ms. Crestfall’s bodyguard. It’s only right for me to intervene. Don’t mention it.”
A sudden realization struck everyone.
The man was Luna’s bodyguard’s master and a Grandmaster!
“Master…” Belarus showed eagerness when he learned the man’s identity. “I will never forget this. Why don’t you come inside and let us thank you properly with a feast?”
“It’s okay.” Mr. Walker rejected the invitation. He added, “Now that this is over, I should be going.”
He then waved at Belarus and had another grateful glance at Andrius before he left.
The farce ended with his absence.
However, many of them had different thoughts in mind, one of which was Harry.
Harry glanced at Andrius with disgust and said to Belarus, “Dad! You saw what happened. It was all because of Andrius.
“Yet he’s being an ungrateful b*stard. He’s not only incapable of solving problems, but he even disrespected our savior, the Grandmaster. He made use lose the chance of knowing the Grandmaster better!
“This isn’t the first time. Andrius loved to badmouth and has been giving us nothing but trouble. This will only get worse in the future. I would like to suggest…” Harry then glanced at Andrius again and said straightforwardly, “…to dismiss the marriage between Luna and Andrius. We can give him some money and compensation.”
He had been planning this for a long time, and this would be the perfect chance to voice it out.
Belarus frowned. Before he could say a word, George adhered, “Yeah, Father!”
He glanced at Andrius with disgust and said, “Andrius is a jinx. As long as he’s here, we will never be at peace! Make him divorce Luna. Just like what Harry said, give him some money. It’s kind enough for someone from the mountains.”
With the brothers taking the lead, the rest of the family echoed.
“Grandfather, expel the jinx please!”
“We cannot keep Andrius anymore! The Grandmaster saved us this time, but there won’t be a next! Andrius‘ attitude will continue to hurt us!”
“We have been kind enough to him and now it’s time for him to leave!”
They were afraid of the trouble that Andrius brought.
Chap 570
Starting from Randal Hanshu to the Hendersons, the other Crestfalls, Simon–Tooke, and now the Sunners, Andrius had always been the problem. He had been challenging people ceaselessly, and it scared them. “Nonsense!” Belarus frowned and roared loudly, “A woman should never marry twice. I am the one who set this marriage up, and I do not acknowledge any divorce! I do not want to hear about this anymore!”
He then looked at Andrius and said with a strict tone, “Andrius, you should be more mindful of your temper as well. This isn’t the village that you lived in. You should control your emotions more and not exacerbate the problem. Don’t always resolve things with violence. Understand?”
Andrius nodded at Belarus‘ reminder. “I understand, Grandfather Belarus.”
With Belarus‘ words, Harry once again failed to expel Andrius from the family.
After some discussion, everyone returned to their own houses.
Andrius walked out of Dream’s Waterfront and saw Mr. Walker waiting for him.
“Mr…”
Mr. Walker knew it was Andrius who saved him and helped him ascend to Grandmaster, Andrius must be a Grandmaster himself, or higher. He could never repay this debt of gratitude, yet he had no idea how to address Andrius.
“Don’t worry about the details. Let’s focus on the problem.” Andrius stopped him with a wave of his hand. He walked out and said meaningfully, “Sumeria is not a place where anyone can come and go as they wish. There is no such convenience in the world.”
Since Sunny Sunner wanted him dead, there was no reason for him to let the man go.
