---- Chapter 2313 Sheena sneered. "Mind your own business! I''m leaving. Screw you and your wives! I hope your kids are troublemakers and give you endless headaches. Anyway, if the military can''t hold the line, they''lle begging you sooner orter. "Whether you go or not is up to you, but Grandpa''s wish is that you step in. Personal grudges are nothing in the grand scheme of things. National dutyes first. You can throw a tantrum, Andrew, but we all know you''ll always see yourself as a soldier." Aspen scoffed proudly. "Natasha, you don''t need to be afraid of Sheena anymore!
Look, I''ve only been here two days and I''ve already figured her out. She''s a tomboy, sloppy, and spends all day doing nothing. With people like her, you''ve got to hit back and make her suffer, so next time she won''t dare bully you." Natasha looked impressed. "Aspen, you''re amazing! She''s a martial emperor, and you still dared to argue with her. If it were me, I''d never have the guts." Aspen''s face went pale. "Wait, hold on a second. What did you say Sheena''s strength level is? She''s a martial emperor?" Natasha nodded. "Yeah, that''s right. Hard to believe, isn''t it?
Back in Gabo Creek, our entire province didn''t have a single person that strong. But Sheena''s level is higher than Darling''s." ---- Aspen waved her hands, her smile copsing into near tears. "I had no idea she was a martial emperor! Oh my goodness, honey, I thought she was just some bully trying to steal your inheritance. "And look at her! She''s so in-looking that I didn''t even bother taking her seriously. If I''d known, I would''ve dly washed her feet and obeyed her every word. What do I do now? I''ve gotten us into trouble!" Seeing her panicked reaction, Andrew found it amusing.
"Rx, nothing''s going to happen. Sheena has many faults, but if there''s ''one thing that''s great about her, it''s that she''ll settle any grievances she has with you right there and then. "If she left, it means she didn''t take it to heart at all. But from now on, don''t ever mention her not being married. That''s the one thing that hurts her more than death." Aspen finally let out a huge sigh of relief. The Lloyd family was wild enough as it was, but to think a gossipingdy could also be a martial emperor? That was too much for her to handle.<fn9256> Newest update provided by find?novel</fn9256>
Natasha asked curiously, "Darling, Luna knows you, doesn''t she? If she falls behind in her fight against Ezekiel, will you step in?" Andrew shook his head. "No. I don''t feel like it." Aspen clenched her fists. "But Ezekiel is unbearable! We weed him politely when he came to Chetvine, yet he turned ---- around and challenged the Martial Tower. Isn''t that just pping our nation in the face?" Andrewughed lightly. "pping Holtrien in the face? Ezekiel doesn''t even qualify... He''s nowhere close. What he''s really after is something else.
Showing off at Martial Tower is just a way to intimidate and establish himself." Aspen shook her head. "But we can''t just stand by and let him take Martial Tower! I can''t stand Luna, with her arrogance and holier-than-thou attitude, but if even she loses, then no one will be able to stop Ezekiel." Andrew''s eyes turned sharp. "Luna''s got plenty of potential and tricks up her sleeve. But Ezekiel isn''t just fighting for himself; he carries the weight of Sorya''s entire martial destiny. Plus, he''s backed by the Tristars Group''s Blood-Eye Chairman and Waylon pushing him from behind.
"If Luna tries to stop him on her own, she''s probably not going to seed. But again, what does any of this have to do with me?" Natasha and Aspen quietly exchanged nces. Both women were perceptive and could see that their man, though acting indifferent with his words, actually cared deeply inside. If Ezekiel stomped all over the military''s pride, could Andrew, who once wore the uniform and swore an oath, really sit back and stomach it? Not a chance.<style>
