Chapter 597

    Chapter 597  Gordon, standing on the verge of copse, seemed to ignore Aspens frantic words.


    His face twisted in agony as the grotesque hump on his back began to writhe under his clothing.


    It was as if something alive were crawling beneath the fabric.


    A faint but ominous pop echoed as the hump on Gordons back cracked open slightly, oozing a viscous, toxic pus.


    The corrosive liquid immediately burned through his clothing and skin, producing smoke and leaving grotesque, pitted scars.


    It was a horrifying sight, reminiscent of acid eating through flesh.


    Aspens eyes widened in shock.


    Mr.


    Woods, whats happening to you? Gordon raised a trembling hand, shouting through gritted teeth, Stay back! Donte near me if you do, youll die! Frantically, he pulled out two pills from a hidden pouch, swallowing them quickly while simultaneously sealing several key acupoints on his body.


    Taking a deep breath, Gordon red at Andrew and growled, Kid, youre lucky today.


    But mark my words your days are numbered! Without another word, Gordon leaped off the VIP tform and vanished into the crowd with surprising speed.


    His hasty retreat left everyone dumbfounded, with disbelief spreading like wildfire through the spectators. What just happened? Did that hunchback actually run away? Unbelievable ! With his strength, he


    couldve dominated the entire arena! You didnt notice? It looked like something was wrong with his body. I think Andrew injured him internally.


    The murmurs in the crowd grew louder, with countless spections swirling about what had just transpired


    Turns out Gordon is just a coward! Tianas patience ran out.


    She stood and, without so much as a nce at Marvin, Mark, or the other guests, walked away with a cold expression


    She had hoped to see Gordon crush Andrew, perhaps even leave him crippled


    But instead, Gordons mysterious condition had turned the tables, making her feel utterly disappointed. Gordons weakness was obvious it was the hump on his back.


    If that waspletely destroyed, he would die from his own toxins


    However, breaking through that defense wasnt something an average person could do.


    Only a top tier expert could evene close.


    Tiana didnt believe for a second that Andrew could exploit such a fatal weakness.


    He was too young, too inexperienced.


    She dismissed the oue as pure luck Andrew had simply survived by coincidence


    Still, she couldnt help but smirk at the thought of Gordon returning to exact revenge once he recovered.


    A man as vengeful and meticulous as Gordon wouldnt let this humiliation go unanswered.


    Approaching Andrew, Tianas lips curled into a frosty smile.


    Enjoying your stroke of luck, arent you? 1/2 Chapter 597  Andrew shrugged nonchntly.


    If you mean the hunchback, yes, hes lucky to have escaped with his life.


    He paused, smirking slightly.


    To be honest, I held back because I didnt want the explosion from his toxic hump to harm anyone else. Otherwise, he wouldnt have left here alive.


    Tiana rolled her eyes, utterly dismissive.


    Nonsense


    Do you really think if Gordons weakness hadnt red up, youd still be standing here talking? Andrew, unfazed, replied with a casual wave of his hand.


    If thats what you believe, go ahead.


    Im not here to argue


    Tianas gaze darkened as she sneered.


    You shouldnt get toofortable.


    Take a look at your hand


    Gordons guebringers Palm is notorious for its poison.


    Even someone beyond the level of a senior grandmaster would suffer from it.


    And you? Youre just lucky to still have your skin intact.


    Andrew raised his hand, examining it closely.


    His tone wasced with curiosity.


    Im sorry, what was that? Poison? I dont see anything.


    He turned his hand over, inspecting it from every angle


    It waspletely fine no marks, no discoloration, nothing


    The ck shadow that had lingered earlier had entirely vanished


    Tianas expression shifted from confidence to shock, her voice rising in disbelief.


    How... how are you not poisoned?
