Chapter 2331
Earlier, Andrew had promised to craft a ninth-grade Soul-Restoring Pill for Sovereign's Apothecary. Brielle, unable to wait any longer, pushed him to fulfill his promise since she had already given him the Blackstar Crystal. Andrew did not mind at all. The original deal required Sovereign's Apothecary to provide him with three items, and the Blackstar Crystal was only one of them. But since he was dealing with someone as influential as Brielle, there was no need to be petty. Whatever he gave now, he would get back eventually. For example, while refining the Soul-Restoring Pill for them, he could also make a few high-grade pills for himself. After all, the materials were right there, so why waste them? Driving his beat-up car alone, he arrived at Sovereign's Apothecary and found Amari. Amari smiled. "Andrew, make sure to put on a good show later. And let me learn a thing or two while you're at it!" Andrew smiled. "That won't be a problem. But I haven't refined anything in

Brielle smiled. "Not only did he return, but he also crippled Sorya's Ezekiel Beckett from the Tristars Group and sent him back home. Mr. Orben, it seems your time studying with the Divine Alchemists left you a little out of touch with the news." Theon's face turned sour. "Madam Baxter, you're right. I haven't kept up with what's been happening in Chetvine. I just got back and heard that someone here at Sovereign's Apothecary was about to refine a ninth-grade supreme elixir, and my first thought was simple: fraud, 100% fraud." Brielle shook her head. "Mr. Lloyd is no fraud. He's the treasure of Sovereign's Apothecary. With him here, we'll be producing high-grade pills that people will fight to get their hands on." Theon snorted. "I refuse to believe his skills have truly reached the ninth grade. Madam Baxter, you should always be cautious. That brat has been running around like an outlaw for years, and who knows what kind of scheme he's planning now that he's back. If we get fool

Amari delivered the ingredients for the Soul-Restoring Pill, and Andrew immediately got to work. The ninth-grade Soul-Restoring Pill was notoriously complex, and it required more than 100 different herbs. Each one was rare and precious, either having been aged for centuries or being worth a fortune. "Here we go. Is that Mr. Goodman's senior?" someone whispered. "If only we could get a little closer and watch up close... It's too bad that we can only see his back." "Forget it. That's impossible. There are thousands of alchemists from Sovereign's Apothecary here, and only those ranked at least sixth-grade are allowed to watch up close. The rest of us can only dream." Outside Amari's garden, the crowd packed in layer after layer, leaving no room to move. Originally, Brielle had planned for Andrew to show off his skills in public, but Andrew had refused. He did not need an audience when refining pills, nor did he have any desire to show off. His ties to Sovereign's Apothecary

At last, Mikayla found the perfect angle. From here, she could finally see the supreme alchemist's side profile. In an instant, her face went pale. From that angle, there was no mistaking it: the man looked just like Andrew. Her thoughts spun into chaos, and she felt as if thousands of ants were gnawing at her heart, leaving her unbearably restless. 'It can't be him. If he were truly a ninth-grade supreme alchemist, then he wouldn't be so obscure. Every eighth-grade alchemist in the country is famous, praised, and talked about everywhere. But Andrew's name has never been heard in those circles, so it's impossible it's him.' After reasoning with herself, Mikayla felt a little better. Yet when her eyes drifted back, the resemblance was undeniable. If Andrew really was this ninth-grade supreme alchemist, then how was she supposed to face him? Her heart thudded like a drum. 'It's impossible, absolutely impossible…' Mikayla kept forcing herself to believe that. Just then, a

Just as the thought appeared in Mikayla's mind, she quickly denied it. She realized that Andrew was the kind of man who carved his own path, leaving everyone else with nowhere to go. They were close in age, and she had spent years building her perfect image, trying to become a prodigy in both medicine and martial arts. Her combat skills were decent, her alchemy talent was solid, and she had already reached the level of a sixth-grade alchemist. Yet, compared to Andrew, she was nothing but a clown. Just then, a senior alchemist walked over and reminded her, "Mikayla, Madam Baxter has ordered the junior alchemists to return to their duties. You may be special, but you still cannot go against her command. You need to leave." Mikayla glanced one last time toward Andrew. She was certain he had noticed her presence because she was the only one left lingering nearby. Moreover, wherever she went, she was always the center of attention. However, Andrew showed no reaction at all. He on

Andrew continued working with the cauldron, crafting several more batches of high-grade elixirs. Then, without the slightest hesitation, he kept half of them for himself. The other master alchemists watching twitched at the corners of their mouths, their faces filled with envy. Yet, none of them dared to say a word. Even though most of them were already in their 70s, with snow-white hair, they still had to address Andrew as a senior. And as juniors, they had no right to criticize the way he did things. Amari chuckled and said, "Andrew, your habit of skimming a cut is just as polished as ever." What he really meant was that even with Brielle standing right there, Andrew taking half the loot for himself seemed a little ruthless. However, Andrew showed no reaction at all, as if he had not even heard. "Whatever Mr. Lloyd takes, he fully deserves," Brielle said instead, nodding her approval without the slightest care. … Meanwhile, Mikayla had spent quite some time searchin

Isabelle took a step back, shaking her head firmly at Mikayla with an icy expression. "Mikayla, I'm grown now, not a little kid anymore! I know what I'm doing, and I don't need you to teach me. "And I don't like how you act so bossy, trying to snatch things out of my hands just because we're friends. Even if we're close and even if our families are allies, you still have to respect me!" Mikayla stared at her in disbelief, as if she were looking at a stranger. She could hardly recognize this version of Isabelle, and anger immediately surged through her chest until she felt like she would explode. "Isabelle, what did you just say? Say that again! Repeat what you just said to me! You're saying I don't respect you? And you're willing to turn on me over Andrew?" Never in her life had she expected Isabelle to react like this, and it was all Andrew's fault. Isabelle had always been so simple-minded, so pure. Yet now, she seemed like a completely different person. She was protecting

Isabelle herself was also a spoiled little princess in her own family. However, she had always respected Mikayla greatly. She had always thought Mikayla was the best among the older girls and wanted to learn from her. That was why she had been content to play the role of the younger one. But now, with Mikayla being so aggressive and even doing things that Isabelle despised, she no longer wanted to put up with it. After all, they were both heiresses, so why should she keep giving in? Andrew was someone she had wanted to kill before. However, he never had bad intentions toward her and had won her over with his character. Isabelle had not even noticed that, as she had been dealing with Andrew, she had developed a sense of disgust and rejection toward Mikayla. Mikayla's face flushed red with anger. "Oh, so now you want to settle scores with me over Andrew? Isabelle, if that's how it is, then we're no longer friends. Sure, I know the secret training methods for Awakened Reaper's Wr

Chapter 2339
Inside Sovereign's Apothecary, Andrew had already finished what he was working on. Once Brielle got her hands on the Soul-Restoring Pill, she treasured it and immediately placed it in the vault. With nothing else to do, Andrew figured it was time to leave. He could finally spare some time to head over to Chetvine Grand Auction House and investigate. Amari grinned shamelessly. "Andrew, do you have time for a little chat?" Andrew smiled. "You want to ask me how I became a ninth-grade supreme alchemist, right?" Amari looked a bit embarrassed, chuckling awkwardly. "Well… something like that. Come on, you won't be stingy with your experience, will you?" Andrew smiled warmly. "What's there to hide? Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you. We're fellow disciples, and I wouldn't hold anything back." Amari beamed with joy and nodded repeatedly. "Ever since Mr. Maverick Zeroual disappeared, honestly, I've been pretty uneasy about it. Now that you're back in Chetvine and we've reuni

Theon sneered. "You think I'd believe that nonsense? Ten years ago, you were just another brat, but because you trained under Mr. Zeroual, everyone was terrified of your background. People lined up to call you a genius alchemist." He continued, "I didn't buy into it. Yet my alchemy still couldn't compare to yours, and I was humiliated. But Andrew, what goes around comes around. Ten years have passed. You boast about having ninth-grade supreme alchemist skills, but in my eyes, you're nothing." Andrew winced. "Theon, could you at least have some shame? You're, what, 80 years old now? And you're still saying things like that? Honestly, I feel embarrassed for you. If you're going to act cool, at least change it to 'don't underestimate me', and then tack on 'let me rest in peace'." Hearing this, Amari burst out laughing. "Andrew, your tongue is as sharp as ever!" He could not match Theon in verbal sparring, but Andrew was different. He could verbally beat him. Theon's face darkene
