Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2701

The sudden burst of destruction and agony almost made Lennox pass out on the spot. The veins on his forehead throbbed violently as terror, despair, and hatred flooded his eyes, and he glared at Mikayla without blinking.

"You bitch! You venomous, poisonous bitch! I hate you, Mikayla… I hate that I ever trusted you!"

Mikayla sighed softly and pretended to look heartbroken. "Lennox, at this point, nothing you say matters anymore. You almost sound like you're blaming me. Mr. Corbin was such a kind and wise man. Without him, how would we have won today? But you… You used such a disgusting tactic to poison him."

She continued, "Lennox, he was your father, your real father. How could you bring yourself to do it?"

Hearing her false sympathy, how she deliberately twisted the truth, and her shameless accusations, Lennox was enraged. His energy core had already been destroyed, so he had no strength left to fight, yet her cruelty pushed him past the edge.

No one knew where the strength came from, but suddenly, he broke free from two apprentices holding him down and lunged at Mikayla like a wild animal.

"You filthy whore, I'm tearing you apart today! Mikayla, I swear I'll make sure you end up being passed around… I'll make you the lowest of the low!"

Mikayla's eyes showed mockery and condescending contempt. On her face, however, was sheer terror as she instinctively raised her hand in a blocking gesture.

The moment Lennox rushed toward her, her palm landed squarely on his chest. In an instant, she unleashed her secret, deadly technique, shattering Lennox's heart meridians.

Immediately after, a flash of viciousness crossed her eyes as she released another burst of energy. Lennox's throat made a muffled grunt. His heart exploded, and he died on the spot.

The father and son lay side by side on the ground.

Who would have imagined that Corbin would die so quickly?

Moreover, he was killed by his own and only son.

The elder who had destroyed Lennox earlier said, "Things have come to this point, and as Mr. Owens Senior said, it's what Lennox deserved. But right now, we can't let our guard down. We must immediately determine who will hold the director position. Otherwise, Mr. Corbin's death and all his efforts while he lived will have been in vain."

The other elders pondered for a moment, then nodded one after another in agreement.

The apprentices raised their voices together. "Mr. Owens Senior, Elders, please take charge!"
