Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2227

Sheena huffed angrily. "Get lost already. I don't want to see your face anymore. I was planning to test your strength, but now I see it's pointless since you're not even worth my time."

Andrew looked unusually embarrassed, scratching his head awkwardly. He gave Natasha a meaningful look and quickly made his escape.

The Lloyd family estate was massive, and the two of them wandered around for a while before reaching a ruined area. All that remained was a single broken-down shack standing alone among the debris.

Natasha stared in disbelief. "Darling, please don't tell me this dump is where you and your father used to live."

Andrew sighed helplessly. "This is it, unfortunately. What you're seeing now is what's left after someone destroyed it, but this place used to be magnificent. It was practically a palace."

Natasha looked skeptical. Ever since Andrew had returned to the Lloyd family estate, she had noticed he seemed pretty pitiful. When facing that fierce woman earlier, his usual confidence had completely deflated.

She could not hold back her frustration. "Darling, why was that lady so nasty to you just now? You're the Dragon Prince of the Lloyd family, which technically makes you their leader. And what was all that talk about 'testing your strength'?"

She continued, getting more worked up. "She even had the nerve to mock you for not reaching martial emperor level. She's unbelievably arrogant! If it came down to a real fight, I bet she wouldn't stand a chance against you."

Andrew shook his head with a serious expression. "Right now, if we actually fought, it would be a close call. You saw Conrad earlier, right? He was just one step away from reaching martial emperor level, a genuine prodigy. But in front of the savage Sheena, Conrad would have to get on his knees and beg for mercy, then grovel like a dog to please her."

Natasha gasped in shock. "Are you serious? Sheena comes off as nothing more than a shrew to me. I couldn't see anything particularly impressive or special about her."

Andrew gave a bitter smile. "You'll witness her power eventually, trust me. Throughout Chetvine, there are countless talented individuals and numerous prodigies, but Sheena has a reputation for crushing geniuses and killing prodigies."
