Chapter 272: The Conflict Intensified
Still, he didn’t admit defeat. At first, he wanted to admit his mistake to Andrew, but after Andrew’s attack, he changed his mind.
He said coldly, “You… you actually dared to hurt me. The G.o.ds on the Mountain of G.o.ds will definitely not let you off.”
Looking at his face that deserved a beating, Andrew’s expression darkened as he crushed the token into pieces.
Following that, his gaze once again landed on that government official. That official did not even have the time to figure out what was going on before Andrew rushed in front of him.
A sinister smile hung on his face as he said coldly, “Since you believe in those G.o.ds so much, how about I send you to see them?”
The government official was initially furious, but he only felt terror in his heart when he heard Andrew’s words.
However, a trace of malevolence flashed on his face as he teased Andrew.
“I don’t think you have the guts. You dare to attack me here. Don’t forget that I am…”
Before he could finish his words, the Dustless Sword appeared in Andrew’s hand. In an instant, it directly cut a b.l.o.o.d.y wound on his neck.
A stream of fresh blood gushed out. He held his neck with one hand, a trace of shock hanging on his face.
He did not expect that Andrew would be so decisive. Andrew held the Dustless Sword in his hand and took out a white cloth, wiping away the bloodstains.
He said in a cold voice to Clayton, who was standing behind him.
“Send his body back and pa.s.s a message to the people of the government for me. If they are so unreasonable next time, don’t blame me for being rude.”
After hearing his cold tone, Clayton was stunned. Then, he walked towards him respectfully.
Clayton lifted the body of the government official.
After obtaining Andrew’s permission, he released his cultivation and walked towards the Martial Arts Bureau.
However, before he could take two steps, Andrew spoke to him coldly once again.
“Oh right, tell them that if they want to change the dynasty of this place, I can satisfy them in a minute.”
Originally, Clayton had a serious look on his face. After hearing what he said, though, a trace of fear appeared on his face. He did not turn around, so naturally, Andrew did not see his face clearly.
Seeing that Clayton was rooted on his spot, Andrew said, “What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go.”
Clayton didn’t dare to tarry. In an instant, he released his cultivation and leaped into the air.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared in front of Andrew’s eyes.
Andrew only smiled faintly. He turned around and stared at the three warrior corpses. After sizing them up, he released his cultivation again.
He sent the immortal Qi from his body towards the three warriors.
In an instant, the three warriors’ corpses disappeared, and a voice rang in his ears again.
“Congratulations on obtaining 300 strengthening points.”
He was not as happy as before after obtaining the strengthening.
He clearly saw a hint of relief in their eyes when he killed the last two warriors.
This made him particularly unhappy. He muttered to himself, “Mountain of G.o.ds, it seems like I have to go there myself. Since you have been challenging my limits, I will let you feel the pain of being dominated.”
Just as he was still reeling with hatred, Annie and Lancelot suddenly appeared in the sky above him.
Andrew was surprised. He put away the ferocious expression on his face.
He walked to Annie’s side and asked her with a worried look on his face, “You’ve been to my Crimson Flame Stone mine. Did you encounter any danger just now?”
He had his reasons for saying this. After all, the people from the government came with ill intentions. They must have rushed over from the mine.
Annie shook her head slightly. She said, “Other than some dirt, everything else is fine on your Crimson Flame Stone Mine. I just stayed there and didn’t encounter anything.”
Andrew slowly put down his worries, but he still felt puzzled.
He had just told the government that they had to look for him Crimson Flame Stone mine, but how did those people know that he had returned to the Martial Arts Bureau?
After some thought, he suddenly remembered that he killed a G.o.d of Mountain of G.o.ds, Hephaestus, in the Martial Arts Bureau.
Since they were both G.o.ds of Mountain of G.o.ds, it meant that the other party must have had some connection with that Hestia.
When he thought of this, his face revealed a hint of malevolence. Still, Hephaestus alone was not enough.
That meant that there must be someone in the government who was working for Hestia. He was sure that it was not only the person he had just killed.
Annie saw his sudden change in expression and could not help but have a hint of doubt on her face.
She directly asked Andrew, “Did something happen?”
Andrew realized that he had lost his composure just now. He quickly shook his head at Annie.
“What could have happened to me? I was just ambushed.”
After hearing this, Annie could not help but show a trace of shock on her face. After all, Andrew’s strength was already beyond imagination.
There was actually someone who dared to trip him up.
