Chapter 2061
At 6 a.m., Billy took the lead, bringing Andrew and Eric toward the Majestic Hotel. The hotel was built on the outskirts of Goldridge City, nearly ten kilometers from the main downtown area. The surroundings were completely desolate and lifeless, with barely a soul in sight. "Billy, you're here pretty early today!" one of the Blues' guards called out cheerfully at the hotel entrance, where two lines of enforcers stood watch. Billy mumbled back, "Not early. The VIPs are already rushing." The man gestured with his hand. "Alright then, let them through!" Andrew and Eric pushed their catering cart and quickly followed behind Billy. "Hold on!" Just as they were about to enter the hotel, the two were stopped. The man who had spoken earlier stared at Eric, looking him up and down. He asked, "You look familiar. I feel like I've seen you somewhere before." Andrew cursed under his breath, thinking Eric should have worn a mask. Since Eric was originally from Goldridge, it was

Henry roared as he jerked his body backward, desperately trying to dodge the deadly strike. However, the moment he leaned back, his heart sank. The person in his arms was instantly snatched away, as if he had handed them over on a silver platter. "Give her back, or die!" Henry bellowed furiously. He slammed his palm against the floor, springing his body upward. However, it was already too late. Andrew had succeeded with one strike. Carrying the unconscious Shiloh in his arms, he charged directly through the fourth-floor corridor toward the window at the other end. Henry gave chase relentlessly, roaring, "Who the hell are you? How dare you snatch someone from me like that! Do I look like a pushover to you?" The corridor was dimly lit, and Andrew was running with his head down, so Henry did not recognize him. Andrew paid no attention to Henry's furious shouts. Just as the window came into view and he was about to burst through and leap out, a towering figure suddenly appear

After walking out of the Majestic Hotel, Andrew immediately went after Henry. Soon, in a hidden alley, he finally spotted him, but there was someone else standing there too. It was Eric! Eric was blocking Henry's path, and the two men stood face to face, no more than five meters apart. Andrew could not help but laugh. He leaned against the wall, coughed twice, and settled in to enjoy the drama. These two ex-lovers had run into each other again, and he wondered what kind of sparks would fly. "Eric, you're back in Goldridge. Why didn't you come see me first?" Henry asked, his face dark with anger. Eric's face remained unreadable as he stayed silent. Henry barked, "Answer me! You have no idea how hard I've been trying to find a way to save you." Finally, Eric spoke. "Save it. Mr. Fischer, put that person down and walk away." Henry was stunned. "What did you just call me? Mr. Fischer? Eric, you never used to call me that." Andrew could clearly see Eric's face flush wit

When the second strike came, Henry's eyes filled with terror, and he did not dare take it head-on. Instead, he leaped away, his figure flickering several times as he fled the scene. His bitter voice echoed back through the night. "Just you wait, Andrew!" Andrew remained unmoved and turned to look at the blue-eyed woman before him. Her facial features looked like she was from Holtrien. However, her blue eyes clearly marked her as mixed-blood. Seeing Andrew studying her, Cordelia giggled sweetly and bowed gracefully, very demure. "I'm Cordelia Bourne. Thank you so much for saving me, handsome. I'm mixed-race. Do you like my eyes? Why don't you come closer for a better look?" Her voice was bright and clear, like a songbird. Combined with her innocent smile, it was almost impossible not to be drawn in. Andrew, as if under a spell, began stepping toward her. The smile on Cordelia's face grew brighter. However, it turned cold as the dagger in her hand thrust viciously toward An

Cordelia hissed, "Sooner or later, I will make you pay!" Eric delivered two more merciless slaps. Cordelia was sent flying and crashed hard against the wall before rolling to the ground. As she struggled to push herself up, her eyes burned with hatred. Andrew shrugged. "He doesn't care for women. So when he hits them, he never holds back. You'd better just give us what we want." Cordelia spat blood and snarled. "I would rather die than reveal anything. If you have the guts, then kill me!" Andrew smirked. "Eric, looks like it's time for you to use your trump card." Eric grabbed Cordelia by the hair and said coldly, "You're as stubborn as a mule. Fool, your willpower and tough talk are useless against me." With that, he activated his Phantom Mirage, and energy ripples appeared. Cordelia struggled for a moment, but her eyes soon lost their defiance, and her head drooped in submission. Eric sneered and asked, "Where are you from?" Cordelia obediently answered, "A

At the same time, inside a villa on Mount Zircon, Henry sat with Grace and Edwin. Three martial saints had gathered in the room. "Mr. Fischer, are your injuries alright?" Grace asked, her tone not the slightest bit concerned. Henry stared out the window at the breaking dawn and said coldly, "Not enough to kill me." Grace gave a twisted smile. "Who would've thought that even someone as cautious as you could get ambushed?" Henry's cheek twitched. If Eric and Andrew had not been there to distract him, he never would have slipped. Moreover, Eric's attitude now was distant and uncertain. It was obvious that he no longer intended to return to him. The thought filled Henry with fury. If Eric had truly fallen for Andrew, then what did that make him? That bastard not only tricked him last time, but now it seemed he was stealing his man, too. His feelings for Eric were complicated, like a treasure he could never allow anyone else to touch. Edwin finally spoke. "Mr. Fischer, if

Soon after, Riker arrived at the villa with several of the Hidden Dragons' best fighters. "Mr. Fischer, you sent for me?" Riker asked, bowing respectfully. Henry's voice was cold. "It's time to make a move. I want you to capture one of the Blues' leaders and bring him to me. I have a use for him." Riker frowned. "But Mr. Fischer, once we strike, it means we're openly at war with the Blues. That's not wise." Henry gave a harsh snort. "To hell with being wise. Right now, I only care about finding the saintess. Do it. Whatever happens afterward, I'll take full responsibility." "Understood, Mr. Fischer," Riker said quickly before withdrawing. Just as he left, someone else walked straight into the villa. Henry turned, and his eyes lit up in surprise. "Eric, you've come back to me?" Eric's gaze was complicated. "Mr. Fischer, I came to tell you that from now on, there will be nothing between us." The joy on Henry's face drained away, replaced by a cold smile. "Nothing betwe

Henry hissed, "And for the record, you're into men. If one day you fall for Andrew, then what does that make you? How do you think he'll see you?" Eric let out a cold laugh. "I don't care how he sees me." With that, he walked away. Henry clenched his teeth, but in the end, he did not stop Eric. A heavy wave of frustration surged in his chest. He was determined to eliminate Andrew. Again and again, that man had ruined his plans, and now even Eric had been taken from him. Henry could only feel bitter defeat and burning rage. … At Andrew's side, dawn finally broke. Eric had gone out to get food and gather news about Goldridge. Time passed slowly, but Andrew looked calm, not worried in the least that Eric might run away. After all, this was Goldridge, and Henry had already shown his face here. If Eric wanted to leave, now would have been the perfect chance. The door creaked open, and Eric walked in, pale-faced, holding a paper bag of breakfast. He tossed down Goldridge'

After a long silence, Eric finally spoke. "Goldridge is already in chaos. The McCormick family launched a full assault on the Majestic Hotel, but they came away empty-handed. "That convict from the Crimson Flame Cult was incredibly strong, holding his ground against two of their martial saints without losing an inch. In the end, he fought his way out of Goldridge with the Blues covering him, heading southeast." Andrew frowned. "Southeast?" Cordelia had mumbled that direction before too. So, they could roughly deduce that Shiloh had most likely been taken to the southeast. As for the southeast, that would be like finding a needle in a haystack. Goldridge's southeast led all the way south into the Gabo Creek region, a completely different state. There was no point in overthinking it, so Andrew dragged Cordelia over. The Crimson Flame Cult prisoner was splashed awake with a cup of cold water. Her wet black hair hung over her forehead, looking somewhat disheveled. "You might

Andrew said evenly, "If you can quit acting slutty, I might consider sparing you a slap." Cordelia's face darkened, and she did not dare continue. Eric had already beaten her so badly before that the shadow of it lingered in her mind. Once again, Andrew pressed his hand against the seal on her back. The burning sting hit him instantly. The Flamebinding carried a fiery force similar to his Inferno Strike, but there was a difference. His Inferno Strike was pure, explosive heat, while the Flamebinding was fire mixed with poison, heat laced with venom. Andrew worked quickly. He sealed several pressure points along her spine and then channeled his energy into the seal. At once, his power clashed violently against the seal's energy. Cordelia screamed, her whole body trembling. "What are you doing? Why does my back hurt so much? Stop, stop it!" Eric let out a cruel laugh, mimicking her voice. "Stop, stop it! Bitch, do you think this is some R-rated flick you're moaning for?" An
