Diego was startled but quickly apologized, saying, "Miss Sheila, I'm sorry for earlier. The kidnapping was all planned by Dustin. If I had known your identity, I would never have kidnapped you." He showed his sincere regret.Taking the chance, Jayden added, "Sheila, did you hear that? Dustin is the real bad guy!""That's right! Dustin is responsible for everything!" Vivian said.Evan chimed in, "I agree! He's sneaky and will do anything to get what he wants!" "We can all testify! Dustin kills these warriors to cover his tracks!"Everyone started talking, and it became hard to tell the guilty from the innocent. Sheila was confused and lost. She wasn't good at making decisions and didn't know whom to trust now. "Sheila, I'm telling the truth," Dustin said. "Sheila, I'm your cousin. Would I lie to you?" Jayden pleaded. "Sheila, why would I kidnap you?""Sheila, we've known each other for years. Have I ever lied to you?""Sheila, stay calm and think. Don't let anyone fool

A sudden loud noise startled everyone. They turned to see Jayden stuck in the wall. Only his hands and feet were showing, blood coming out from his mouth and nose."Jayden!""Mr. Murray!"After a moment of shock, their faces paled. They rushed to get Jayden out of the wall and give him first aid."Rhys, how could you harm the Murray family's heir? This is outrageous!" Vivian exclaimed."Dustin! If anything happens to Jayden, you won't get away with it!" Evan warned firmly. "Are you all blind? Jayden attacked me first. I was only defending myself," Dustin replied."I didn't see anything. All I saw was you injuring someone. Turn yourself in or face serious consequences!" Vivian's expression turned sinister."That's right! Surrender now!" Evan added."Fools," Dustin sneered, ignoring their threats.He knew Jayden attacked him first, and if he hadn't acted fast, it could have been deadly. Grandmaster martial artists like him relied on their protective energy sphere to handle s

Sheila laughed at herself, her voice trembling with mixed emotions. "If you think of me as a friend, why did you hurt Jayden? Why did you kidnap me? What's the point of it all?" Dustin was momentarily speechless. He had mentioned his involvement in the fight with Jayden earlier. Still, Sheila didn't believe him. She had already decided, and it seemed pointless to explain. Trust faded once suspicion took hold, which he had come to accept. "Why are you so quiet? Are you admitting you did it?" Sheila's voice quivered with disappointment. "It seems my dad was right about you. Your past actions were just an act to gain our favor." She continued, "I thought you were different and special. You're not like those who care only about power. But now I see I was mistaken. "You're like those who pretended to be close to me but were better at hiding your true intentions. You fooled me, made me doubt myself, and almost caused problems in my family." "Dustin! I hate you!" Sheila shouted an

"Mr. Murray! Mr. Murray, wake up!"The loud shout suddenly interrupted Sheila's thoughts. She turned quickly to see Jayden, who was unconscious. "Jayden!" Sheila rushed to check on him. Dustin had punched Jayden hard in the stomach. It left him barely breathing and on the brink of death."That Dustin went way too far, injuring Jayden like this," Vivian fumed."I wish that guy hadn't run off so quickly. Or I'd have beaten him to death," Evan grumbled.Though they couldn't beat him in a fight, they were seething in anger."Quick, let's get him to the hospital!"Sheila called for help, and they quickly got Jayden into a car, racing to East Swinton Hospital.Soon, the doctors began to treat Jayden's injury. It wasn't until late at night that Jayden was finally out of danger. Luckily, Dustin had held back to avoid causing fatal harm. In the ICU, Jayden lay unconscious. He looked as pale as a ghost. Caden and the others stood vigil at his side.The past few days had been tumu

Edgar nodded and said, "I'll leave this to you. Find some skilled experts to deal with Dustin for me." He knew money could solve his problem without him having to get his hands dirty."No problem," Caden replied. A thought ran in his mind, "This is Edgar's order, so any blame would fall on him if things went wrong."The next morning, there was a lot of activity in front of the Murray residence. Guests were coming and going to celebrate Christopher's birthday. He had retired from the public eye but was still highly respected.Christopher had always kept to himself. He invited only a small group of friends and relatives to his birthday party. However, some unexpected guests had shown up.At this moment, a black sedan pulled up in front of the mansion. The door opened, and Dustin stepped out, holding a gift. He was accompanied by Cornelius. "Sir Rhys, you attacked Jayden last night, and now you're here for General Murray's birthday. Aren't you afraid the Murray family will tur

"I've come to congratulate General Murray on his birthday. I don't want trouble, so please step aside," Dustin said despite the shouts and threats."Congratulate him? Hmph! Do you even deserve it?" Vivian sneered. She continued, "Who do you think you are? What makes you qualified to congratulate General Murray? If it weren't for Sheila, you think you'd be allowed in?"To Vivian, Sheila's intervention was the only reason Dustin got inside."That's right! Take a good look around. Everyone who is here to congratulate General Murray is from high society. You're just an insurance agent. What gives you the right to be here with us?" Evan scoffed.Despite his fighting skills, they viewed Dustin as a mere brute and didn't think he could cause a scene.Sheila remained silent, watching Dustin with a somewhat uncertain expression. Their relationship had already soured due to the incident the previous night. She harbored resentment toward him, especially since Jayden was still in the hosp

Sheila was surprised by Dustin's irrational behavior. She never imagined he would become violent over a minor disagreement. At first, she believed he was a good person, but his actions have left her bitter and skeptical. "Ms. Murray, I'm joking. You have nothing to worry about. I'll not use violence unless provoked," he said calmly.Vivian retorted, "Hmph! You're saying you're only joking? If Sheila hadn't intervened, things could have turned violent!"Evan added, "Dustin, knowing martial arts doesn't justify reckless behavior. The Murray residence is no place for such conduct!""If someone doesn't annoy me, I don't resort to violence. But if they do, I might. That's my advice, and I'll give you a break now," Dustin said coldly."Sheila, this guy is out of control. You should consider kicking him out before he disrupts the celebration!" Vivian suggested, hoping Sheila would agree."Vivian is right, Sheila. One troublemaker can ruin the celebration. Today, we're celebrating Gen

"Sheila! They're lying!" Vivian was concerned about the situation. She continued, "All this talk about saving you and repaying their kindness is nonsense. From the moment Dustin approached you, it was all part of his master plan to win your favor. Don't be fooled by him!"Evan interjected, "She's right, Sheila! He's a sly guy with hidden motives. You have to be careful!"As she listened to them, Sheila's momentary guilt vanished. She realized that Dustin's actions were not out of genuine kindness. Instead, he had ulterior motives. She saw his true nature yesterday. And now, she no longer felt any obligation or kindness toward him.Sheila took a deep breath and glanced at Dustin. "Dustin! I don't want to see you anymore. Please leave.""You—"Just as Cornelius was about to say something, Dustin interrupted him.Dustin looked disappointed. "Miss Murray, it seems you don't like me. Then, I'll leave now. Goodbye." With that, he turned and walked to the door.He noticed her deter

After a night of chaos, some of the Red Legion's members were killed, others were captured, and the entire force had been wiped out.But the fallout didn't stop there. The Prescott estate was also raided. All embezzled wealth was confiscated, and those found guilty were thrown into prison.Anyone connected to the Prescotts was placed under house arrest and subjected to rigorous investigation.And the man behind it—Warrick—had become the kingdom's most wanted fugitive.Until he was captured, Celestria remained under lockdown. Major roads were sealed off, and patrol teams scoured every corner to ensure Warrick had no way out.Austin's crackdown sparked outrage among senior officials who didn't know the full story. They voiced their dissatisfaction, with some even gathering outside the castle gates in protest. They stomped their feet in outrage, just short of openly cursing him.To them, Warrick had made great contributions to the nation. Even if he had committed crimes, he didn't d

Austin's words were calm and almost casual. Yet, they struck like thunder and echoed in the hearts of the three assistant generals of the Red Legion.If they answered Austin's questions, there might still be a slim chance of survival. But if they refused, death was the only outcome.After all, who would willingly choose death when they had worked so hard to achieve their wealth and status? Yet, pride and dignity held them back. They didn't want to be branded as traitors.Now, they were caught in a dilemma. Which was more important—their honor or their lives? It was an impossible choice."You have ten seconds left. If you don't speak, you'll lose your chance." Austin's voice was utterly devoid of emotion.His words seemed to pierce their souls, and the three Red Legion assistant generals broke into a cold sweat.As the countdown neared its end, Auron finally couldn't hold back. "Your Highness! I'll talk—I'll tell you everything."Dropping to his knees, he scrambled forward and wa

Axel swallowed hard, shock written all over his face. He had always known the Draken Guardians were formidable, but he had never expected them to be this lethal.He had pushed himself to his limit just to hold his own against Connor and Dave, only to end up seriously wounded. Yet, when the Draken Guardians arrived, they wiped them out—along with several dozen Red Legion soldiers—without losing a single man.If Axel hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the Red Legion, a force renowned for its elite soldiers, could be so easily crushed. Or perhaps it wasn't that the Red Legion was weak, but that the Draken Guardians were far stronger than anyone had imagined.Even their most ordinary members were strong enough to become a mighty general. As for those at the level of captain, their strength was far beyond Axel's. The lethality of a team made up of such skilled experts had reached the point of being an overwhelming force."Mr. Cruz, please arrange some

"Damn it! This punk's tougher than I thought. We're in real trouble if this keeps up," Connor said, swinging his twin blades relentlessly. Every strike was aimed at Axel's vital points.But Axel was quick. He weaved in and out of reach and avoided direct confrontation. It was obvious he was just stalling for time."Sir Prescott should be far enough by now. There's no point dragging this out. Let's fall back."Sensing the futility of their efforts, Dave considered retreating. He didn't fear death, but he wasn't about to waste his life for nothing.Since Warrick had escaped, their interception mission was also completed."You guys hold him off. The rest of you, fall back with me."Connor was decisive. Realizing they weren't making any progress, he quickly ordered a retreat and left a few decoys behind to buy time.They had barely run a hundred yards when a wave of soldiers suddenly appeared at the alley's entrance. Hundreds, maybe even thousands, filled the narrow space and comple

"This punk's a real pain in the ass!"Connor glanced over his shoulder and noticed Axel was still hot on their trail.The squad he had sent to intercept Axel was completely outmaneuvered, and they couldn't get anywhere near him.To Connor's dismay, Axel kept shooting off signal flares as he pursued them. Each flare gave away their position. At this rate, it didn't matter which direction they ran—they were bound to be intercepted."Connor! Dave! Make a move and swat that damn fly," Warrick ordered decisively."If we leave, who's going to protect you?" Connor hesitated.Warrick was in bad shape. Without them guarding him, a single attack from an expert could be fatal."If you don't take out that fly, I'll be in even more danger. Get moving now!" Warrick snapped."Yes, sir!"Connor and Dave exchanged a glance before splitting up with their squads to surround Axel.They both knew what was at stake. If they didn't take Axel down quickly, their entire force would be stranded and do

"Kill them all!"At Warrick's command, the Red Legion charged without hesitation. Blades flashed as they stormed toward the elite enforcement unit.This time, nearly a thousand Red Legion soldiers arrived. With their sheer numbers, they launched a pincer attack from both flanks, leaving the enemy with no way to fend it off."Form the Shield Formation!" Axel shouted upon seeing the dire situation. His men immediately sheathed their blades and raised their shields to form a defensive line. Their pursuit had cut them off from the main force. Since they were up against an enemy ten times their size, forming a defensive line was their best option.If they could stall for even a moment, reinforcements from the castle would arrive, and the tide would turn in their favor. Once that happened, the thousand-strong Red Legion would be the ones on the defensive.After a brief charge, the two forces collided.Warrick had personally trained the Red Legion. He selected only the most loyal and

Axel had no time to hesitate. He lunged forward and grabbed the overturned Dragon-Binding Net. Then, he used every ounce of his strength to pin Warrick down again."Get over here! We have to keep him restrained."As the net strained under Warrick's sheer power, Axel let out a roar and pushed his cultivation to the limit. His veins bulged and blood pounded in his ears. He threw every last bit of strength into holding Warrick down.For now, he managed to pin Warrick down, but the elite enforcement unit on the other side wasn't faring well. Warrick thrashed wildly, sending more than a dozen men swinging through the air. Some slammed into trees, while others crashed into walls. Within moments, the Dragon-Binding Net flipped over again.Several elite enforcement units tried to rush in and help, but they barely got close before getting hit by their own airborne comrades and sent flying.Against Warrick's Divine Strength, they were utterly outmatched. The regular guards didn't stand a

If Warrick had been at his peak, Axel might have been more cautious. But with Tranqurin coursing through his vein, Warrick had barely a fraction of his usual strength left. His power was still fading, and Axel wasn't about to waste the opportunity. He had to capture Warrick while he had the chance."Get the hell out of my way!"As the enforcers closed in, Warrick let out a furious roar and slammed his massive fist into the floor.With a loud explosion, the earth shook violently. The ground within dozens of yards cracked and caved in, splitting apart like a spiderweb. A powerful shockwave tore through the air, sending dirt flying and walls shattering. The entire meeting room collapsed into ruins.The elite enforcers, caught in the blast, were flung backward like ragdolls. They crashed to the ground, disoriented and battered. Even Axel was thrown back more than ten yards.Warrick panted heavily, his face pale and drenched in sweat. Forcing his internal energy into action had only

Austin's words were strong and commanding, each one landing like a thunderclap.Warrick felt the weight of his presence. His brow furrowed for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure. He glanced at the so-called evidence on the floor, showing no sign of panic or guilt. Instead, he said indifferently, "Your Highness, these dead men were nothing more than ants. Is this really worth making such a fuss over? I doubt you haven't killed anyone before."As the old saying went, the higher one climbed, the heavier one's purse. Warrick had clawed his way up, risking his life at every step for the sake of rising above the masses. Everyone had their own desires—some sought fame, others fortune. Some were greedy for money, some for power, and others reveled in the adoration of the masses. To achieve those things, one inevitably had to engage in shady dealings. It was an unspoken rule among officials, and Warrick saw nothing wrong with it."Ants?" Austin sneered. "Without these 'ant
