Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2249

After leaving Brielle's garden, Amari's expression turned serious as he asked, "Andrew, what exactly do you need those three terrifying items for?

"From what I know, Century-old Vampire Fangs, Tears of the Violet, and Blackstar Crystal aren't things Sovereign's Apothecary can produce. You should also know how dangerous and volatile they are. Most people would drop dead the instant they touched them."

Andrew walked toward the exit of Sovereign's Apothecary and said calmly, "There's no need to hide from you what I plan to do with them. My energy core has been sealed, and I've reached the final layer of the seal. Any method I know of would have little effect, so I can only take desperate measures and try extreme methods."

Amari's face changed dramatically. "You want to use these three rare toxins mixed together to force through your energy core seal? No way! I absolutely won't agree to this. Andrew, you're being too reckless!

"We can slowly figure out a way to deal with your energy core seal. As your junior and someone who's been watching since your very first pill refinement, I can say I've witnessed your alchemy rise to unprecedented heights! Promise me, and promise our missing master, that you won't do such dangerous things."

Andrew smiled and said, "Don't worry, you know my personality. I definitely won't take risks unless it's absolutely necessary, but I'll try every possible method."

Amari's expression was complex. "You've endured for ten years already. Now you've openly returned to Chetvine, and nobody dares to say a word. Combined with Mr. Lloyd Senior's presence behind you, you can go anywhere in the world now. Who the hell would dare touch you? So why are you so obsessed with breaking through this final seal?"

Amari huffed and puffed, glaring furiously, but in the end, he muttered resentfully, "Fine, fine, I'll talk. Honestly, I don't know much. Once, during a masked auction, I dealt with a man who mentioned your sealed energy core. At the time, I was trading a thousand-year-old herb with him, and the bastard demanded 300 million plus a large supply of elixirs.

"It just so happened that while we were trading in the private room, I overheard him talking with someone else. He said something about the Lloyd family's Dragon Prince's energy core being sealed, that it served him right, and that there were masters behind the scenes playing chess with you as just a pawn.

"Finally, he smugly mentioned that the manager of Chetvine's Grand Auction House knows some interesting things, but he didn't reveal what specifically."
