Chapter 2021
Maurice’s retreat made every member of the Driscoll family tense up instantly. The three elders could not hold back and rushed forward, surrounding him on both sides.
“Mr. Driscoll Senior!”
“Get back!” Maurice’s face twisted with rage as he shoved away the elders‘ support and raised the Dirgeblade once more, launching another furious assault on Andrew.
The massive blade energy carved through everything in its path with devastating force, but it was useless.
It could not even scratch Andrew.
At the martial saint level, especially with a masterful weapon in hand, the destructive power reached terrifying heights.
Maurice moved like a bulldozer, his seemingly inexhaustible inner energy continuously surging forth as he relentlessly attacked Andrew. However, while he was formidable, Andrew proved even more ruthlessly powerful.
“Maurice, your strength doesn’t differ much from Franklin’s,” Andrew said, his voice ice–cold. “You’ve already witnessed his fate, and now you’re nothing more than a cornered beast, struggling uselessly before death:“”
Andrew’s hand traced mysterious patterns through the air, slashing, chopping, striking, pulling.
Maurice’s great blade suddenly felt as though it had been trapped in mud. He yanked with all his strength to pull it back, only to feel Andrew’s palm brush against his face with a sharp slap.
“Mr. Driscoll Senior!” The three Driscoll family elders roared in fury again. They exchanged glances and could no longer sit still, joining the battle themselves.
Maurice gripped his blade tightly, completely ignoring his injuries as he continued his wild slashing attacks.
The three elders became blurs, striking at Andrew from every side.
Andrew did not move from his spot. His eyes turned darker and colder as the air around him began to twist and churn. Then, a sharp force burst from within him, swirling together in seconds to form a massive vortex.
The vortex surrounded Andrew completely.
Sparks flew in all directions as Maurice’s Dirgeblade clashed against the barrier. The blade’s edge curled backward and cracked, sending sprays of sparks everywhere.
Even so, it could not penetrate Andrew’s vortex even an inch. Instead, each strike sent painful vibrations up Maurice’s arm, nearly shattering the bone.
‘H–How is this brat so strong?! Maurice thought, his heart filled with terror for the first time. ‘Has he already reached the high–level martial saint realm?‘
From within the vortex, Andrew extended one hand and pulled sharply. One of the Driscoll family elders was immediately dragged against the spinning energy barrier.
The elder’s agonized screams pierced the air as the other two elders cried out in horror, “Blake!”
They watched helplessly as Blake Driscoll was ground against the energy vortex for several seconds. His bones shattered completely, and his eyes bulged in frozen terror as he spat his last breath, and then his corpse fell to the ground with a thud.
The lifeless body lay face–up, staring blankly at the sky. Even in death, the terror on his face was burned in his
