Chapter 281 - Small Interlude
Chapter 281: Small Interlude
Andrew’s face instantly darkened. He stood up from the chair and walked out of the Martial Arts Bureau with a solemn expression.
Clayton, who was standing beside him, was astonished. He followed him and whispered in his ear.
“I think those people don’t come with good intentions. We’d better be careful. Don’t fall into their trap.”
Andrew just smiled faintly at Clayton’s nervous look. He raised his hand and patted Clayton’s shoulder gently. He did not say anything but quickened his pace.
After he walked out, he saw those warriors staring at him with a serious expression. When they saw him, their faces instantly darkened.
Before he could speak, one of the warriors with a higher cultivation took a step forward and said coldly, “Which one of you is Andrew? Quickly step forward.”
Seeing his arrogant and domineering appearance, Andrew just smiled faintly and said, “You should be sent by those high officials of the government, right? If you have anything to say, spit it. I don’t have so much time to waste with you here. But you’d better understand one thing. If you dare to be arrogant here, then what awaits you is only death.”
The warrior was stunned for a moment. He instantly released his cultivation.
Although these freelance martial artists had heard of Andrew’s great name, they had never seen him actually fight.
Moreover, there were even a few who had never heard of him. They only worked for money. As long as they were given enough money, let alone Andrew, even if it was the director of the bureau, Clayton, they would still be so arrogant.
Looking at his response, Andrew instantly pulled out his Dustless Sword. He stared at him coldly.
“With your strength, you are not my match at all. I advise you to get lost quickly. I have no time to waste here with you.”
The more Andrew talked, the more the warrior felt that Andrew’s name was just an empty reputation. He did not care at all and instantly charged toward Andrew.
After he made his move, the other warriors beside him also charged towards Andrew with cold expressions. In an instant, Andrew was surrounded by them.
Andrew was extremely furious. After all, the matter had not been dealt with properly, yet these warriors had directly come to his door. It seemed like it was time to teach them a lesson.
As it was hard to reach their level, Andrew originally only wanted to beat them until they were seriously injured. However, at this moment, Annie suddenly walked out from the Martial Arts Bureau.
When those warriors saw Annie’s figure, greed flashed in the eyes of one of them. Andrew coincidentally caught his reaction.
Before Andrew had the time to speak, the warrior, who had just shouted, stared at Annie and sized her up. Then, he said to Andrew in a cold voice.
“Kid, I see that your strength isn’t that great. As long as you are willing to hand over this woman behind you to us, not only can we let you go, but we can also forget about this matter.”
The warrior who spoke did not give Andrew any chance to react. He stepped forward and rushed towards Annie.
In an instant, he was already in front of Annie. Andrew did not make a move. Instead, he coldly said one word to Clayton, who was standing at the side.
“Kill!”
After receiving his order, Clayton’s face revealed a trace of malevolence. He rushed in front of Annie. He protected Annie behind him while his other hand circulated Qi. A punch landed on that warrior’s body.
With a miserable cry, that warrior’s figure drew an arc in the air.
He fiercely smashed into the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. Just as he was about to stand up with difficulty, a mouthful of blood spurted out again. He dropped to the ground without any breath.
On the other side, the warriors surrounding Andrew did not even have the time to figure out what was going on when they saw that their friend had already fallen to the ground without any life. They felt a little flustered. After all, the strength of the person who had just attacked was the strongest among them.
The corner of Andrew’s mouth turned into a sneer. He stared fixedly at the warrior whose eyes had flashed with greed just now.
He infused the immortal Qi in his body onto the Dustless Sword. With an afterimage, he appeared behind the warrior.
The warrior did not have the time to react. He only felt a sudden killing intent coming from behind him. The moment he turned his head, a bone-deep wound appeared on his neck. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
While he slowly fell down, Andrew’s eyes were already on the other warriors.
He was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he just stared at the other warriors. He took out a white cloth from his interspatial ring and wiped the bloodstains on his Dustless Sword.
Those warriors were already frightened by his actions. They could not help but take two steps back. Among them, a few of them had lower cultivation. Even the weapons in their hands had fallen to the ground.
Andrew’s attack just now had completely refreshed their understanding. It was simply not something that they could come into contact with at their level.
After exchanging glances with each other, they immediately restrained their auras.
Although they worked for money, they would never do something like this when dealing with their own lives.
There was no need to throw away their lives here for just a bit of money.
Seeing their cowardly appearance, the corners of Andrew’s mouth revealed a strange smile.
“Since you don’t want to fight, then don’t blame me for being rude. If I keep you, you’ll become my trouble sooner or later. I’ll send you to find the two people just now.”
After saying this, he instantly applied the immortal Qi from his body to the Dustless Sword. He shuttled back and forth among those figures. In a short while, they all fell to the ground.
