Still using his Dragon-ying Palm, Andrew seized Xavier''s remaining arm.
Just like that, Xavier''s other arm was destroyed too. The shock wave of excruciating pain finally became unbearable for him. He opened his mouth, blood streaking across his lips as he howled in agony, "I''ll kill you!"
He roared, but as Xavier charged forward, he discovered that both his arms hung limply at his sides,pletely useless.
Andrew leaped up, bent his legs, and drove both knees heavily into Xavier''s chest. With a choked scream, Xavier spat a mouthful of blood and flew backward, crashing hard onto the ground.
Andrewnded and nted one foot directly on Xavier''s face. He ground half of Xavier''s cheek into the sand-covered field, embedding thumb-sized gravel deep into his flesh.
Leslie finally lost control and shouted, "Andrew! Get your foot off him! Do you know that killing an officer is a capital offense?"
In response, Andrew stomped down hard and snapped one of Xavier''s legs. He nced sideways. "What did you say? I didn''t quite catch that."
Leslie shrieked, "I said step away from him! If something happens to Colonel Haywood, you''ll be held responsible!"
Andrew shattered Xavier''s other leg with another sharp kick. "Lieutenant Terrell, what was that? Held responsible? A capital crime? Wow, I''m so scared."
He added, "You know what happens when I get scared? I panic, and when I panic, I do crazy things! When I do crazy things, I end up doing stuff even I can''t control!"
Andrew''s mock-serious expression made even Rachel and Logan''s scalps tingle with fear.
"M-Maybe we should get you on Xanax!" Logan stammered, making a nervous joke.
However, nobodyughed.
Leslie felt her vision blur. She waspletely at a loss, feeling like the world was copsing around her.
She never could have imagined things would develop this way. With Luna absent, Xavier was one of the strongest fighters in the entire base. Yet, this elite warrior had now been crippled in all four limbs. His face was being ground into the dirt under Andrew''s boot.
Meanwhile, Andrew, the bastard she had looked down upon, was now ying deaf and dumb, ignoring her warnings while torturing Xavier as brutally as possible.
Inplete desperation, Leslie broke down and brought up Luna''s name. "Andrew, let go! I order you to let go immediately! Otherwise, I''m calling General Phn right now, and you''ll be in deep shit!"
Andrew sneered and lifted his foot. Xaviery on the ground with half his face buried in the dirt, his eyes wide open and filled with hatred and terror.
Andrew stomped on his face again, his voice ice-cold as he asked, "What''s with that look? Think I don''t dare kill you?"
Xavier growled through bloody teeth, "You wouldn''t dare!"
Andrew raised his foot again, this time aiming for the neck. There would be noing back from that.
Rachel cried out, "Mr. Lloyd! Please don''t!"
Logan quickly stepped in, trying to defuse the moment with a forced grin. "Andy,e on. Chill out. Let''s not kill anyone today. I''ll take you for a steam and line up a few foreigndies, help you cool off."
Truthfully, even if Andrew killed Xavier, the Keller family would not be afraid of the fallout. Logan just did not want Andrew to provoke Luna because that woman was truly dangerous.
Leslie screamed, covering her
mouth as she backed away, tears nearly streaming down her face. "Andrew, are you really not afraid to die? If Colonel Haywood gets hurt, especially on a military base the entire military will be shaken up. When that happens, you'' face certain death."
Andrew sneered coldly. "Now you''re scared? This is all you and Colonel Haywood have got? You''re really making your general proud! A bunch

He spat and walked away.
Andrew had not actually nned to kill Xavier, but sometimes, a brutal lesson was necessary.
