"Cherusia?" Dustin perked up as soon as the word came out of Samuel's mouth. His voice raised a little as he asked, "Where is it?"After waiting anxiously for so long, he finally had a lead. This was the only missing herb. Once Dustin got his hands on Cherusia, he could refine the nine-fold Longevitum."To be honest, the Cherusia is at the Murray residence." Samuel explained, "The day after tomorrow is Christopher's birthday. Someone gave him the Cherusia as a birthday present."Mr. Rhys, whether you can get your hands on it depends on your abilities.""Okay, if the information is accurate, I'll pay you appropriately." Dustin was excited.He finally had a lead on where the Cherusia was. No matter how much it cost, Dustin was determined to get it. "There's no need for a reward. Let's go with what we agreed on previously. You owe me a favor now, Mr. Rhys."So, if I encounter any trouble in the future, I hope you'll help me.""As long as it doesn't go against my principles,

"Oh, I'm here to visit General Murray," Dustin answered with a smile. Vivian looked at him disdainfully and commented, "Hmph! What a suck-up!"Ever since the band-aid incident, she had a grudge against Dustin. But she had to admit that he was pretty skilled. That was because Vivian found out she had lung cancer after being shot and hospitalized. Fortunately, they detected the cancer in time. With Vivian's family's wealth, she got the best treatments, and her condition stabilized. Meanwhile, Sheila's attention was on Dustin. "My grandfather has gone out to attend to some matters. He won't be back for a while."Why don't you come in for coffee first? I have some questions to ask you, too."Without waiting for Dustin's response, Sheila immediately dragged him into the Murray residence. She finally got the chance to get close to him. So, Sheila would not let him go."Sheila, didn't we agree to practice horseback riding?" Vivian reminded. "Oh, you're right! I got so excited

"What?" The group turned to look in the direction of the voice. They saw a group of young men and women. The group strolled into the stable leisurely. A woman led the group. She wore a black vest and black riding boots. She was beautiful and had a slender figure. But she looked arrogant, giving off a high and mighty vibe.As they entered the stable, she held a black horse by the reins. It had a shiny coat and was magnificent. "Roxanne?" Sheila frowned at the sight of the woman. Roxanne Murray was her cousin, and she always liked to challenge Sheila.Roxanne had become more daring after Caden stepped down as head of the family. Roxanne would look for trouble every day, annoying Sheila very much."Sheila, I can't stop laughing when I heard you brag about Gale. He never loses?" Roxanne mocked.She did not hold back and continued to poke fun at Sheila. "Come on, you only won in previous years because everyone lets you."Did you think you're that good? Don't be ridiculous!"

The two women glared at each other. They did not take Jayden's words seriously. Sheila and Roxanne saddled up their horses. After putting on the gears, they led their horses to the racetrack.One horse was black, while the other was white. Both were the complete opposite. Sheila's and Roxanne's friends stood on either side, facing each other. "All the best, Sheila! I know you can win this!" Vivian cheered from the sidelines. Evan was confident, too. "Gale is a seasoned champion. He can't be compared to any other horses!" "You're right! As long as he performs as usual, he can win this!" the others said. Dustin remained silent the whole time. He was actually quietly judging the horses. He could see that Gale was indeed superior to Midnight Shadow. But of course, the rider's skill needed to be considered, too. Sheila had years of experience. As long as she made no mistakes, her chances of winning were high. On the other side, Elena asked excitedly, "Dahlia, which of the

The inertia sent Sheila flying into the air. Then she landed on the grass with a loud thud.For a moment, she felt dizzy. She looked like she was in a lot of pain. "Sheila!" The sudden turn of events shocked everyone. They hurriedly ran toward Sheila to check on her. Fortunately, she wore protective gear. Moreover, the soft grass cushioned her fall. Thus, she suffered no serious injuries and only dislocated her shoulder."Sheila, are you okay? Are you hurt?" Vivian asked, looking concerned. Evan was anxious. "Doctor! Someone get a doctor!" He was worried that she had hit her head. If that were the case, it would have been bad."Let me take a look," Jayden said as he quickly approached Sheila.After examining her, he assured everyone, "It's nothing serious. She dislocated her shoulder, that's all."He reached out and pressed his hand on Sheila's shoulder. Then he suddenly twisted it. A crisp sound was heard as the bone went back into place.Sheila let out a muffled g

Jayden raised an eyebrow, having no idea what was happening. But he could see that Elena disliked Dustin. "Since when did the Murray family have such low standards? How could someone like him enter our residence?"Hearing that, Sheila quickly explained, "Jayden, Dustin is my friend.""Friend?" Jayden sized Dustin up."Sheila, you must know that with your status and identity, not everyone can be your friend." An insurance agent was part of the lower class. To Jayden, someone like Dustin was not even fit to shine his shoes. "It's hard to say whether I'm qualified to be her friend. But I know that although you're Sheila's cousin, you're clearly not a kind person," Dustin retorted. Roxanne glared at Dustin, scolding, "How bold of you to say that! Who do you think you are? "How could you accuse my brother? Bastards like you deserve to be beaten up!"As she spoke, she lifted her whip and was about to strike Dustin. But Jayden raised his hand to stop her. Then he asked coldl

"What?"Everyone exchanged glances when they saw the black needle, surprised. They had seen Dustin removing the needle from the horse's head. There was even blood on it. So, someone purposely inserted it into Gale's head. "Seriously? Could this guy be telling the truth?"Everyone turned to look at Jayden, waiting for an explanation. "Now that I've found the evidence, what else do you have to say?" asked Dustin. Then, he flicked the needle and sent it flying. It landed near Jayden's feet. "What do you mean? Are you suspecting me?" Jayden frowned. "I've no idea who did this. But I can swear that I haven't done anything to harm Sheila!" Dustin replied indifferently, "Yeah, keep up with the act. "Just moments ago, your sister admitted you were the only one who touched Gale. Who else could it be if it wasn't you?""Yes, I did touch Gale. But that doesn't mean I inserted this needle," Jayden answered. "Perhaps someone had already inserted the needle before we arrived."

"Why are you so stubborn?" Jayden sighed tiredly, acting helpless. At that moment, Elena suggested. "Since no one can reach a middle ground, how about having a rematch?"Let's up the stakes, and the winner gets to decide. How does that sound?""I'm fine with that. Let's see if Sheila dares to have a rematch." Roxanne accepted the idea and looked at Sheila provocatively. Jayden acted concerned for Shelia. "Sheila just hurt herself. How can she ride a horse now? Aren't you making things difficult for her?""If Sheila can't do it, someone else can replace her. She has so many friends here; any one of them can help her." Roxanne lifted her head arrogantly and looked at Shelia's friends. "Hey! Which one of you has the guts to challenge me? One billion dollars for a race."You'll pay if you lose, and the winner gets to take Gale."Evan, Vivian, and the others looked at each other nervously. The stakes were high. After all, it was one billion dollars for a race. They knew their

Glenn wasn't just skilled in swordsmanship, but his technique was also flawless. Every strike was unpredictable, relentless, and impossible to block. His attacks came in waves, and each one was stronger than the last.What made him even more terrifying were the six divine swords that obeyed his every command. They were like extensions of his will. The swords threw Dustin off balance, attacking from every direction and blocking any chance of escape. They moved in perfect sync with Glenn and left no room for counterattacks.Dustin had no choice but to dodge and parry. If not for his incredible agility and mastery of the sword, he wouldn't have lasted more than a few breaths.Even so, the pressure was overwhelming. It felt like he wasn't just facing Glenn but six or seven skilled opponents at once. Any slip in focus, or any opening, could be his last.The real challenge was that Dustin wasn't gaining any ground. While he had to stay focused on dodging and blocking, he also had to se

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Dustin and Glenn stepped onto the battle ring. They stood about 30 feet apart, and their eyes locked across the distance. Their gazes met like sparks, and they could feel the weight of the other's stare."Are you Logan?" Glenn asked, breaking the silence.He had heard the rumors about this dark horse before stepping into the ring, but now that he was facing him, he wasn't sure."Who I am doesn't matter. What matters is who wins this fight." Dustin didn't confirm or deny it, but his words left Glenn with no doubt.Both men were at the top of the Legendary List and held equal rank on the Champ-Tier List. Until they fought, no one could say who was the stronger of the two."I heard you're Seth's disciple, so I'm really looking forward to this." Glenn's gaze sharpened.Many years ago, his mentor, Cyrus, was defeated by Seth. That loss had always haunted Cyrus ever since. Now, with the disciples of both men about to face off, Glenn was determin

"Since Madam Penelope has spoken, I’ll follow her lead," Alloy said with a smile. "What about Mr. Hadley and Sage Foyer?""I'm in if you want to make a bet," Cyrus replied coolly."It's not every day we get an opportunity like this. Let me stir things up a bit." Kaden nodded with a grin.Once the three had agreed, Penelope waved for Abigail to come over.Soon, Abigail approached them with a wide grin. "Esteemed guests, I hear you want to bet. The current odds are—bet on Dustin to win, and you'll get 1.6 times your stake. Bet on Glenn, and it's only 0.4."She continued, "And no worries—if you win, I'll exchange your winnings for celestial stones." Abigail smiled brightly, and the other parties' eyes gleamed with the unmistakable shine of greed.Many had already placed their bets with her. Though she couldn't control the match's outcome, she knew how to adjust the odds to her advantage. Over time, that could turn into a huge fortune."I'm betting on Glenn to win." Cyrus quickly

"We're ready for the ultimate showdown of this tournament. The winner will be crowned the Combat Tournament Champion. Now, let's welcome both contestants to the ring." Oron's voice thundered as he stepped onto the battle ring.There was thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.The long-awaited showdown was finally at hand. Today's outcome wasn't just about personal glory, but it would also decide the future of the martial world.If Glenn triumphed and claimed the crown, the Sword Union would rise as the undisputed guild. The Celestial Alliance and the Mystic Arts Order would have no choice but to bow to their supremacy.But if Dustin won, it would be even more sensational. A dark horse, without any guild affiliation, defeating the elite disciples of the major guild—such a story would send shockwaves through the martial world.Once that happened, every major guild would fight tooth and nail to claim him. It would spark a fierce battle for dominance."Dr. Rhys! Good luck!"

"H-Hold on! I-I surrender!" Abigail said urgently. With the sword inches away from her throat, she decisively raised both hands in a gesture of surrender.She didn't expect herself to win the match. Her goal was simply to take this opportunity to test Dustin's strength and also gauge her own progress. But now, it was clear that there was still a sizable gap between them."You've done well. In a few more years, I might not even be able to keep up with you." Dustin smiled and lowered his Celestial Blade. His words weren't flattery; he genuinely saw potential in Abigail.The dark Phoenix flames carried a corrosive power that even his mystical pure energy couldn't resist. In other words, Abigail's black flames were the bane of any martial artist.Her journey in the martial world was still short—barely two years. She hadn't unlocked the full potential of her Phoenix bloodline yet. But with more training and experience, the sky was the limit for her."Don't try to console me, Sir. I'm n

With a resounding bang, the golden light erupted with a burst of terrifying energy wave. In an instant, the earth trembled, and fierce winds whipped through the air.Dustin and his sword were sent flying several yards. After landing, he stumbled back several steps before finally steadying himself.He looked up and saw that Abigail's body was now covered in a layer of golden armor, though he couldn't tell when it had happened. The armor glowed brightly, and it made her look imposing and striking.It was clearly a divine artifact.The Mystic Arts Order had been around for centuries, with deep roots and countless treasures. As the Grand Sorceress, Abigail would obviously have several divine artifacts for protection.Dustin wasn't surprised, but the armor's counterforce caught him off guard. Not only did it protect her, but it also had offensive capabilities.When his sword struck the armor earlier, the blow didn't leave a scratch. Instead, the armor absorbed the hit and sent the for

Dustin raised his hand as the black feathers rained down on him. A white energy shield flared into existence to form a wall before him.The feathers slammed into the shield and sent ripples across its surface but failed to break through. However, the black flames on the feathers spread across the shield and burned through its energy at a visible pace. In the blink of an eye, the once impenetrable barrier cracked open and left a gaping hole.Dustin couldn't hide his surprise. His mystical pure energy was far stronger than the average grandmaster's internal energy in offense and defense. It was meant to be impenetrable. He hadn't anticipated it couldn't hold up against Abigail's phoenix flame.Seeing the raw strength of her bloodline, he knew he couldn't afford to take any chances. As the black flames spread, he swiftly waved his hand to summon a furious gust of wind that sent the feathers and flames flying."Glaring Wings!" Abigail wasn't done yet. She quickly formed hand seals and

Abigail moved with lightning speed, and her figure weaved in and out like a shadow. Her swift movements left a blur of afterimages that was hard for anyone watching to keep up.On the contrary, Dustin stood still without making any movement."Fallen Fist!"After closing in, she unleashed a flurry of strikes—dozens of black palm shadows slamming toward his body, and each one was like a bullet aimed at its target.Abigail practiced a unique martial art, and it was imbued with voodoo-like properties that could kill anyone who made contact with her. But Dustin's body was immune to all poisons, so it was a perfect counter to her deadly attack.As the shadow palms closed in, he remained unshaken and thrust his palm forward.A fierce gust of wind surged and ripped through the air with unrelenting force. It collided with the black palm shadows.Abigail's black palm shadows exploded on impact and disintegrated into thick clouds of dark mist that quickly spread. Within moments, the mist e

The whole arena suddenly fell dead silent. Everyone stared blankly, and not a soul dared to breathe. Alloy shot to his feet in the main spectator seats, and his face was tense with worry. Yet, he didn't dare make a sound. He feared it might startle Glenn into making a mistake that could cost Fenley's life.After all, Fenley represented the future of the Celestial Alliance. Alloy had invested all his effort into Fenley, and he provided him with endless resources. If Fenley were to die in the match, it would deal a devastating blow to the entire guild.While Alloy was gripped with worry, Cyrus and Penelope cheered silently. They secretly hoped Glenn's sword would strike Fenley. If that happened, the Celestial Alliance would take at least a decade to regain its former glory.Fenley's body stiffened as he stared at the Fang Master hovering inches from him. A shiver ran through his spine as goosebumps prickled his skin. Sweat trickled down his face, and each drop hit the ground with a
