Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) Chapter 2740

Donovan smiled. “That’s normal. The Lloyd family’s Blood-Eyed Black Dragon isn’t meant to directly boost combat power—it exists to unlock something. As for what exactly it unlocks, Reginald will have to explain that to you. After all, the title of Dragon Prince in the Lloyd family is passed down only through his bloodline.”

Andrew suddenly remembered something and handed the Sacred Heart Method to Sheena. “Sheena, try cultivating this technique. My totem activated while I was practicing it.”

Sheena’s eyes lit up. “Seriously? That’s incredible.”

She took it at once, but the moment she opened it, her expression fell. Her brows knitted tightly as she said, “I can’t practice this. It clearly states that only martial emperor–level cultivators and below can use it. Anyone above that level will clash with their existing techniques and internal energy.”

Andrew checked and saw that she was right. All he could do was shrug in disappointment.

Donovan spoke up, “Andy, your most important task right now is to break the final seal on your energy core. I suggest you make a trip to Mount Lourneau.”

Andrew looked surprised. “Mount Lourneau? Why there? Is there a chance?”

Donovan chuckled. “I don’t know if there’s a chance, but I can tell you this—the head of Mount Lourneau, Mr. Luther Johnston, is the leader of the Northern Martial Union. He’s also a true giant in the martial world. He ranks first on the Titan List, though he shares that position.”

Andrew’s expression darkened. He knew exactly who shared that rank.

Guillermo.

To this day, Andrew still didn’t understand why the Lloyd family had a feud with Guillermo. Nor could he understand why Guillermo targeted both him and Reginald.

After all, Reginald had once been Guillermo’s student.

Yet Guillermo’s actions made one thing painfully clear—he genuinely wanted both of them dead.

“Alright,” Andrew said without hesitation. “I’ll head to Mount Lourneau in the next day or two.”

Donovan handed him a letter. “This is my personal letter to Mr. Johnston. With it, you’ll be able to meet him. I’ve already explained your situation inside. Given his capabilities, he may not give you a complete solution, but he’ll definitely point you in the right direction.”

Andrew straightened and said sincerely, “Thank you.”

Donovan waved his hand. “Andy, you need to take care of yourself. Sitting in my position means many things are complicated and restrictive. I can’t act freely or kill at will. When a train is already in motion, stopping it—or changing its course—is extremely difficult.

“What I can do for you is keep the Lloyd royal family and this massive train stable.

“But where this train ultimately goes, whether it remains a train or transforms into a colossal war machine—that depends on you.”

Andrew nodded. “I understand.”

Donovan’s voice dropped. “The Lloyd family’s overseas forces and assets are already showing signs of being attacked and destroyed. Power struggles in Chetvine always begin overseas. Otto has been restless for a long time, and this time, he’s finally made a decisive move.

“It’s either the Cunningham family gets wiped out, or the Lloyd family bleeds heavily and then annihilates the Cunningham family.”

He paused, his words heavy with dominance and killing intent.

“There will be no exceptions.”

Among the three royal clans, the Cunningham family had chosen the Lloyd royal family as its target, intending to replace it. Guillermo had fanned the flames along the way. But once drawn into this conflict, the Lloyd royal family had no choice but to respond to the Cunningham family’s provocation with complete annihilation.
