---- Chapter 2463 Humiliation burned in Valerie''s eyes as she growled, "Andrew, you sexually assaulted me. Just wait! My family wille for your head." With that, she turned and fled into the darkness, her pale figure vanishing like a ghost in the wild Andrew sighed. "That''s what she calls sexual assault? Unbelievable. If I''d really wanted to, I''d make sure to fill her up twice before killing her." The image of her perfect body shed through his mind, and he shook his head, forcing it away before he, too, disappeared into the night.
By the next morning, news of Jaden''s death had spread like wildfire. Guillermo had not bothered to hide it, so within hours, every powerful family in Chetvine knew that Jaden had been killed. Everyone started to specte about who did it. Someonemented, "Man, Jaden''s luck ran out hard. He got attackedst week, and now this? Whoever hated him must''ve really wanted him gone." ---- "Has to be the Lloyd family''s Dragon Prince! He''s the only one with a reason to kill him," another replied A third scoffed. "Please.
The Dragon Prince might have a motive, but he doesn''t have that kind of power. Jaden was Mr. Vazquez''s loyal hound, ranked seventh on the Titan List! You think just anyone could take him down?" "His head was chopped clean off. That''s not a grudge killing; that''s a message. Someone''s taunting Mr. Vazquez himself," another voice said grimly "Pointless move. Anyone dumb enough to challenge Mr. Vazquer''s authority isn''t going to live long enough to brag about it" After a full night of rest, Andrew felt much better.
Killing Jaden had not cost him much strength, but getting tangled up with Valerie afterward had been exhausting He had been dead set on killing her at first, but things had taken such a ridiculous turn that the whole night now felt surreal. "Honey, that fierce woman''s here again," Aspen said with a giggle. Andrew looked up and saw Sheena approaching. ---- "Andrew, you really outdid yourself! I saw Jaden''s corpse with my own eyes. What a sight!" She pulled up a chair and sat down like she owned the ce, giving Andrew a big thumbs-up. Andrew shook his head. "You should stay out of this. Mr.
Vazquez will find out soon enough that I''m the one who killed Jaden." Sheena frowned. "What happened? Did something go wrong during the fight?" Andrew''s voice dropped low. "Valerie from the Reyes family saw everything. She chased me halfway across the city." Sheena just shrugged. "So what? As long as she''s not Mr. Vazquez''s person, it doesn''t matter. Let her talk if she wants; we''ll just deny everything." Andrew chuckled. "Fine, let''s drop it. When''s your match against, Alfredo?" Sheena smirked. "In a few days. I''m waiting for my breakthrough. Andrew was surprised.
"You''ve already hit the threshold for the second stage of Martial Emperor?" ---- Sheena nodded. "Yeah. I can feel it. I''ve got about ten days before it either happens or it doesn''t." Andrew thought for a moment. "And Alfredo? What level is he at now?" Sheena rolled her eyes. "The final stage. One foot already in the realm of Martial God, that bastard." Andrew''s smile stiffened. "Well, good luck then." Sheena was a prodigy, nearly his equal in talent. However, Alfredo was a legend in his own right, and he was a step ahead of her in mastery.
Andrew honestly had no idea how she nned to win that fight. Still, that was her path to walk. In their world, the strongest lived by one truth: move forward or die trying. That was Sheena''s fate, and it was his, too.<fn33d6> The source of th?s content is find?novel</fn33d6><style>
