Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 2125

Steam rose thickly around Andrew's head as he sat cross-legged in the middle of the room. The pool surrounding him was not filled with hot water but with high-temperature herbal liquid.

After a long while, Andrew opened his eyes. His gaze was so bright it seemed like a beacon in the darkness, though this brilliance lasted only for an instant before returning to calm.

Soon, his eyes became as deep and mysterious as a bottomless lake. Standing up, he dried himself off and got dressed, his face showing a thoughtful expression.

After breaking through the second seal, he had plunged nonstop into a series of major battles. First was the ambush at the temple outside Blumedale by the Driscoll family and Gabo Creek Province's top martial artist, Franklin.

Next came Andrew's assassination campaign against key Driscoll family members. Then followed the decisive battle with the Driscoll family itself.

He thought he could finally rest, but then Shiloh was kidnapped. So, he rushed to Goldridge, then headed south to Sunstrand, where he clashed again with the McDaniel family and the Crimson Flame Cult.

Later, he even encountered martial saint-level figures from the four major sects. These included Mistveil Peak, Gilded Bloom Sanctuary, the prestigious Drache family from East Veridian, and the Wandering Sect.

Although Shiloh's awakening had effortlessly killed two of those martial saints, Andrew had put in tremendous effort beforehand. It could be said that during this entire period, he had been extremely exhausted, facing one battle after another.

Not only did he lack proper rest, but his martial arts foundation had not been properly consolidated either. That was why he had just taken this medicinal bath treatment.
