Chapter 2431
Andrew stood up and said, “Alright then, I’ll make a trip to the Reyes residence.”
Before heading out, he returned to his rundown place and picked up a plastic container. Inside were ten ninth-grade supreme elixirs. In terms of sheer value, they were worth enough to buy out an entire prestigious family outright.
If Andrew was willing to put in an extra effort or offer up some decent leverage, he could even get a martial emperor to go all out for him. For instance, he could have them completely wipe out the Owens family, where Mikayla belonged.
That was the kind of power Andrew now wielded.
Perhaps in martial arts, he was still limited by the seal on his energy core and could not reach the absolute peak, where no god or man could stand in his way. However, his influence and the kind of shockwaves he could create were already far beyond what an ordinary martial emperor could compete with.
After all, Andrew was not just a high-level martial artist; he was also a ninth-grade supreme alchemist.
With that title, wherever he went, as long as he showed a little goodwill, people would fall over themselves to curry favor for him.
Andrew did not head straight to the Reyes family. Instead, he took a detour and stopped by the Chetvine Grand Auction House first.
“Mr. Lloyd, you’re here,” Joaquin greeted him nervously the moment he appeared, his eyelids twitching.
Andrew smiled faintly. “Mr. Briggs, is the manager around?”
Joaquin replied, “He is, Mr. Lloyd. Should I notify him for you?”
Andrew nodded. “Go ahead.”
Joaquin immediately went to notify Enzo. When Enzo heard that Andrew had arrived and was asking for him by name, his heart started pounding wildly.
‘That devil isn’t here to cause trouble again, is he?’ he thought as his palms began to sweat.
Ever since the day he saw Andrew kill Benny from the Murphy family right in front of the auction house entrance, Enzo had realized the truth that people like him were worlds apart from the Lloyd family’s Dragon Prince. Acting tough in front of someone like that would only get you struck down.
So now, Enzo had no choice but to jog over and greet Andrew with a nervous smile, treating Andrew like a god he had to please.
“Mr. Lloyd, you’re here! Oh my, you should’ve let me know ahead of time. I would’ve sent a car to pick you up.” Andrew patted the spot beside him, grinning. “Come here, let’s sit down and talk.”
Enzo cursed under his breath but steeled himself and sat down next to Andrew. “Mr. Lloyd, just tell me what you need. If it’s something I can handle, I’ll make sure you’re satisfied.”
Andrew looked at him with a half-smile. “You seem kind of scared of me. What’s up with that? Am I really going to eat you alive or something?”
Enzo’s smile grew even more strained as he chuckled awkwardly. “Mr. Lloyd, come on now, what are you saying? Of course, I’m scared of you! I’m just a small fry. You’re the Lloyd family’s Dragon Prince. In Chetvine, there’s probably nobody who isn’t afraid of you.”
Andrew did not bother with the small talk and got straight to the point. “Remember that punk I took care of outside your auction house last time? You know who he was, right?”
Enzo replied, “I do. His name was Benny, the scion of the Murphy family. His father, Wilder Murphy, is a martial emperor. He’s got a lot of pull in the Northern Martial Union.”
Andrew said casually, “Oh, got it.”
Enzo was somewhat dumbfounded. “Mr. Lloyd, judging by your tone, you’re not worried?”
Andrew chuckled. “Oh, I’m worried. I’m so worried I’m thinking about jumping off a building.”
Enzo’s face twitched. Anyone could tell this guy was full of it.
Andrew patted his shoulder. “Alright, enough messing around. I came to find you because I want you to take me to the Reyes residence. I need to meet whoever’s actually in charge, preferably the head of your family.”
