Chapter 398: Threatening Andrew
Even the warriors standing at the door had disappeared, which made Andrew a little puzzled.
He quickened his pace and walked toward the hall of the Martial Arts Bureau. Before he could say anything, a cold voice came into his ears.
“I was just looking for you. I didn’t expect you to come back so soon. Your efforts have paid off.”
Andrew was startled. A figure slowly appeared in front of him.
When Andrew saw the appearance of the government man, he did not feel shocked. Instead, he said coldly to the man, “If I am not wrong, you should have already died at my hands last time.”
That person from the government looked at Andrew. The corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smile as he calmly said, “That’s right, I died at your hands last time. However, I’ve come back from the dead. Today, I’ll make you pay the price. Also, this time, I’m on a mission from above. From today onwards, the ownership of the Crimson Flame Stone mine will no longer be yours.”
When he finished his last sentence, Andrew’s expression darkened. He pulled out his Dustless Sword from his interspatial ring.
“You want to take my Crimson Flame Stone mine?” Andrew barked. “Let’s see if you have the ability to do so.”
Andrew did not want to follow the people of the government and say any more nonsense. In the blink of an eye, he unleashed all of his cultivation.
Andrew slowly moved his footsteps and took a step forward.
An instant later, he disappeared, not giving his opponent a chance to respond. The Dustless Sword released several streaks of sword Qi, blasting towards the government man.
The government man actually stood where he was. He did not have the slightest intention of dodging. Instead, there was a sneer hanging on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing his actions, a trace of shock involuntarily flashed across Andrew’s face. However, since he was not willing to dodge, this was also in line with Andrew’s thoughts.
Following a series of loud bangs, the sword Qi smashed into the body of the government official.
Seeing that the government official was engulfed by the sword Qi, Andrew’s expression turned solemn. He withdrew his immortal Qi.
Andrew’s expression remained grave as he stared at the official. How could a normal person stand still and not dodge such a powerful attack?
Hence, he could be sure that nothing had happened to that person. Perhaps he was already planning how to attack him.
The voice of that person entered his ears once again.
“I thought that you were very strong. I didn’t expect that your level wasn’t enough to even tickle me.”
Andrew’s face darkened. He didn’t attack again, though. He quietly stood on the spot, waiting for the man to appear.
The figure of the man finally appeared once again. A long sword had already appeared in the hands of that person.
Moreover, that person’s body was emitting a large amount of black Qi. After staring at the black Qi, Andrew’s voice grew cold.
“You’ve really made me look at you in a new light. I didn’t expect you to actually know about this kind of evil cultivation. However, do you think that with your level, you’re a match for me? I’ve just let you escape a calamity. This time, I guarantee that I’ll kill you in one strike.”
The government man revealed a teasing smile.
“I’ll just stand here without moving. I want to see if you have the ability to kill me.”
As he spoke, he snapped his fingers. Andrew had no idea what he was doing. However, in the next second, a trace of anger appeared on his face.
“Don’t challenge my bottom line. Release the Martial Arts Bureau people.”
Andrew released all of his cultivation.
At that moment, around five warriors appeared behind the government man. They were all evil cultivators, and they were holding Annie and Lingyu hostage.
When the government man saw his anger, a mocking smile appeared on his face. He said to Andrew, “If you want me to let the two of them go, then you can kneel here and kowtow three times, and then voluntarily give up the ownership of the Crimson Flame Stone mine. I will return the two of them to you safe and sound. Otherwise, they will go to h.e.l.l with you.”
He picked up a chair from his side and sat on it, quietly waiting for Andrew’s reply.
Andrew’s face was filled with anger. He stared at him and said, “I have been here for so long, but no one has dared to threaten me.”
The government man added the black Qi on his body to the longsword.
“I can give you time to consider, but it is limited. It depends on whether you can make a wise choice.”
As he spoke, he put the longsword on Lingyu’s neck.
Lingyu was an ordinary person at the moment. She had never seen such a scene before. Tears involuntarily flowed down her face.
“They all said that you couldn’t bear to part with her. Today, I want to see whether your speed is fast enough or the longsword in my hand is faster.”
