Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 3225

What truly made Sergio feel powerless and hopeless was what he had heard from Kyrie about Andrew's exploits in the Outlands.

Andrew was now King of the Wastelands, and he had annihilated several martial gods from the Ludendorff family. Even the Dark Clans of the West, who struck terror into people's hearts, had been crushed beneath his feet.

Such achievements and methods were already beyond what Sergio dared to imagine.

In front of Andrew, what did the Harding family even amount to? They probably were not worth a damn.

"You want me to spare the Harding family, but what's your reason? Give me a reason that's convincing enough, and I'll spare your life," Andrew said, looking at Sergio as his smile gradually turned cold and sinister.

He continued, "But if you can't come up with a reason that satisfies me, then I can tell you this: the Harding family will no longer be a noble house in Holtrien. At the very least, you'll fall to below third-rate status. Moreover, everyone in the Harding family at the martial saint level or above must die."

Sergio's shaking grew even more violent, and large drops of sweat fell from his forehead.

A young, hot-blooded member of the Harding family suddenly roared, "Andrew, taking your anger out on my family makes you look weak! If you're so capable, go find Guillermo and settle your grudge with him!"

He looked at Sergio and yelled, "Dad, there's no need to fear him. This is Chetvine… I don't think he'd dare to do something inhumane. Our family has hundreds of people. Even if we all stuck out our necks for him to kill, would he really dare to slaughter us?"

Sergio suddenly clenched his teeth and walked up to Andrew. "A man takes responsibility for his own actions. Andrew, I'm willing to die as an apology to satisfy you. But the rest of the Harding family is innocent. Or rather, to you, they're like ants to you. Can you please not make things difficult for them?"

Andrew let out a cold laugh. "Sorry, but no."

Sergio's expression changed drastically as he laughed bitterly. "I knew it. I knew you wouldn't let the Harding family off so easily. It's all fate… Do whatever you want with me. I won't resist in the slightest. I only ask for death."

The entire Harding family immediately broke into tears and wails. One by one, they got on their knees before Andrew, their eyes filled with tears. They were terrified to the extreme.
