Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2425

At the brink of death, Jaden did not even think. His enormous jaws split open and snapped forward, while his claw-like hands reared up and slammed out in front of him.

Two thunderous impacts echoed as his massive palms struck the air, bursting with violent force. Power erupted from his body like a storm, and he forced out every last drop of energy from his core as if he no longer cared about living.

But even so, Jaden's reaction came half a second too late, and his defense only covered his chest and head. His lower body was completely exposed.

The next instant, he felt a surge of numbness shoot through his waist and legs, followed by a searing pain that tore through his nerves. His roar split the storm as Andrew's Dragon-Slaying Palm pierced through his side, ripping open his waist and spraying blood across the rain-soaked alley.

Jaden howled in agony, losing all sense of reason. He swung wildly, his strikes powerful enough to shatter the raindrops midair until they evaporated into mist.

Andrew's movements were smooth, sliding back as if skating on ice. He instantly put distance between himself and Jaden, blood dripping steadily from both hands.

The smile on his face grew even wider, yet carried not a trace of warmth.

In Jaden's terrified eyes, a hint of panic emerged. He knew that if he kept fighting, he would very likely end up dead here. Tonight, he had been completely unprepared and ambushed.

Combined with underestimating his enemy, he had fallen into a disadvantage from the very start. If this were a different setting, if he had been prepared, Jaden was confident he would not be in such a pathetic state.

He could sense that the strength of the person across from him was very strong, but definitely not a martial emperor. The aura was wrong, yet the sheer brutality of his attacks far surpassed what a martial emperor could do.

Whether it was the scorching, violent palm technique from earlier, or the mysterious yet cruel and unique moves he was using now, the terrifying display even made Jaden think about retreating. He kept charging forward, ignoring the fresh blood spraying from his body as he pressed on with his furious assault against Andrew.
