"Say that again?" Scarlet's expression was frosty. She pointed the tip of her sword against Natasha's throat. If she just pushed forward an inch more, Natasha would easily end up dead. "Hmm?" Natasha frowned at the sight of the blade against her throat. She hadn't expected Scarlet to have such a bad temper and draw her sword without a word. She was also certain that Scarlet was serious. If she provoked her further, she would be as good as dead. It seemed like she had met her match. This woman before her was harder to deal with than Dahlia. "Stop it!" Amid their deadlock, Dustin suddenly rushed in. "Dustin, you're here!" Scarlet immediately sheathed her sword. Her previous cold demeanor was replaced by a smile."Scarlet, what were you doing earlier?" Dustin frowned, evidently displeased. "Nothing, I was just joking around with Ms. Harmon," Scarlet said with a smile. "Joking around?" Dustin turned to Natasha and asked softly, "Are you hurt?""I'm fine. I was bored e

Half an hour later, two luxury cars slowly pulled up in front of A'roma. The doors opened, and Dustin and his group got off one after the other. A'roma was a newly opened restaurant. It was known for its excellent ambiance, service, and food. The restaurant had garnered favorable reviews. There were many high-ranking officials and prominent figures who frequented the place. They had made a prior reservation. Thus, a few senior waitresses promptly led Dustin and his group to the second floor. On the second floor was the VIP area. Regular VIP patrons sat in the main hall, with decorative screens placed between tables.Meanwhile, higher-tiered VIPs had private rooms. They enjoyed a better experience in terms of environment and services. "Ms. Harmon, this way, please." A senior waitress dressed in a white shirt smiled as she led the group. She brought them to the entrance of a private room named Celestial Room 3.She opened the door and was about to walk in when a woman dress

Dustin found it amusing. "Is this the kind of service A'roma provides? Requesting us to switch rooms for no apparent reason and not even being polite about it? "Are you trying to take advantage of your customers?"How were they supposed to enjoy their meal when they were being forced to switch rooms for a few people?"What exactly do you want, sir?" Sue was unhappy. "Are you saying you should be compensated? Fine, as long as you agree to switch rooms, I'll cover the cost of a complimentary fruit platter. That should do it, right?" She looked at him in disdain. "Firstly, I don't need compensation. Secondly, offering us a mere fruit platter as compensation? What do you take us for? Beggars?"In a restaurant, the customer usually came first. Yet, the woman before him seemed to ignore that completely. "You better not be difficult, sir. We have rules in this restaurant. If you're unhappy, you're always welcome to leave!" Sue was annoyed. Their restaurant was booming. Losing a f

"Ugh …" Sue couldn't breathe. As her feet dangled in the air, her face turned red. A sense of impending doom spread through her. She never expected the silent white-haired woman to be that strong. She was able to lift her up effortlessly with just one hand. She had no doubt that if the woman exert some force into it, her neck would snap."No need, just two slaps as a lesson will do," Dustin said."Okay." Scarlet nodded and delivered two hard slaps. The slaps left Sue dazed and disoriented. Her teeth were knocked out, and her nose was bleeding. After hitting her, Scarlet threw her out the door like a piece of trash.Sue coughed violently, and her face was pale and swollen. It took her a while to recover."You … you guys are too much! I will not let you get away with this!"Sue grimaced and made her way downstairs in a rush. However, as soon as she reached the foot of the staircase, she collided with a group of people. Tumbling to the ground, she let out cries of pain. "

Dustin got up from his seat slowly and turned to face them. When he saw Florence and her group, he was slightly taken aback. What a small world."Another one?" Natasha frowned when she noticed Dahlia. She hadn't even finished dealing with Scarlet, and now Dahlia had joined the scene. It felt like she was being played by some cosmic joke. "Dustin? It's you!" Florence's expression darkened after she took a good look at the person before her. "Why are you here? You're not tailing us, are you?""Don't overthink it. We're just here to have a meal," Dustin replied impassively."A meal? Hmph! Who knows if you're telling the truth."Florence was doubtful. "You must have heard about our newfound wealth and planned this coincidental meeting. I've encountered plenty of people like you! You're trying to find an opportunity to gain favor with us!""That's right!" Julie chimed in haughtily. "Rhys! I'm warning you to keep your distance! Our social status puts us way out of your leagu

Natasha and Dahlia locked eyes in a fierce standoff. Their gazes were engaged in an intense battle of wills. The two women each possessed a unique charm and captivating beauty. At that moment, they exhibited a strong desire to outdo each other. "Ms. Harmon, I'd rather not engage in a verbal confrontation with you. The truth speaks for itself. "You've occupied our room. If you refuse to leave, don't blame me for calling the cops," Dahlia spoke again. Her tone was calm but assertive."Feel free to call the cops." Natasha smiled weakly, showing no fear."Dahlia, these people are truly shameless. There's no need to be polite with them. Just have someone kick them out!" Florence was getting annoyed."That's right! This is clearly the room we reserved. What makes them think they can just occupy it forcefully? They're too much!" Julie chimed in.Right then, the restaurant's security personnel had gathered in the room. When Florence saw them, she yelled, "What are you doing just st

"I …" Sue was at a loss for words.She wanted to argue further but hesitated. She could sense that Dahlia had grown angry. "You useless trash!" Right then, Florence couldn't hold back any longer and slapped Sue across the face. She yelled, "You can't even secure us a room? What good are you for? You've made a fool out of me!""Madam Franklin, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry." Sue held her burning cheek. She held back her anger and apologized profusely, appearing extremely subservient. "What's the point of apologizing? How are you going to resolve this issue? Do you know that we have important guests arriving soon?" Florence snapped. This useless person not only failed in her task but also humiliated her in front of Dustin. It was simply unforgivable."Madam Franklin, why don't we head to Terra Room 1? The atmosphere there is quite pleasant," Sue suggested tentatively. Florence delivered another slap across her face. She roared, "Are you stupid? People of our stature should

Dustin found it amusing how arrogant Florence was behaving.From her actions and attire, Dustin guessed that she must have met a benefactor who had brought her entire family to immense riches. Not only were they rich now, but they also possessed power and status.She was already rude and haughty before they were rich and powerful. Now that they were, she went from bad to worse. But Dustin wasn't surprised that she'd act this way."Hey! I'm talking to you! Do you hear me? Name your price! I'm really busy and don't have time for your games!"Florence held a gold card between her fingers, looking every part a wealthy woman."I'm afraid you won't be able to afford the price I have in mind." Dustin shook his head."We can't afford it?" Florence broke out in cackles as she shot Dustin a ridiculous look."Hey Rhys! You really look down on us, don't you? Do you know our status now? Do you know how loaded we are?"See this gold card here? The amount I have in here is enough to shock y

"Let me correct you," Dustin said.As his hand slowly tightened into a fist, a white longsword formed from his true energy. "In Dragonmarsh, there is no 'God. ' We only have the Lord of the Dead."The moment the words left his mouth, a tempest of sword aura exploded outward. Within a radius of several dozen yards, the winds howled, sand and stones were sent flying, and the waves along the shore grew even more violent."Such overwhelming pressure. That sword aura is insane. Is this Logan's actual strength?"Feeling the surge of energy, Warrick and the others couldn't help but turn pale. It was then they realized that Dustin hadn't been fighting seriously before. Or perhaps, with their strength, they hadn't even earned the right to make him fight for real. They figured only someone of Poseidon's caliber could force Dustin to go all out."Interesting… truly fascinating." Poseidon suddenly laughed. "I thought you were just a pup, but it turns out you're a hungry wolf. Now, this is s
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2514
Poseidon hovered in the air with his trident in one hand and radiated a commanding presence. He stood like a god, and his figure was so intimidating that it struck fear into those who beheld him.With a wave of his hand, an invisible energy struck Warrick and expelled the three silver needles from his body. Feeling sensation returned to his limbs, Warrick's face lit up. He quickly rose to his feet and clenched his fist to his chest in salute."Thank you, Lord Poseidon, for saving me. I will never forget this kindness!" he said."No need for formalities, Sir Prescott. Now that you've pledged yourself to the Hall of Gods, it's only natural that I ensure your safety," Poseidon replied with a faint smile as he descended gracefully."Your timely arrival was a blessing," Warrick said as he bowed his head slightly in deference. "Otherwise, we would have perished tonight."The Hall of Gods' royal gods were figures he could only look up to. Everything about Poseidon, from his power to hi

Mulder knew Warrick had been on the battlefield for years, and his physical strength was unmatched. On top of that, he was already halfway to becoming an ultimate grandmaster. Even if Warrick couldn't defeat the prodigious Logan, Mulder figured the difference wouldn't be too big. But he never expected Logan to take down Warrick with a single finger, leaving him severely injured and unable to stand. The difference in their strength was far beyond anything Mulder could have imagined.In other words, Logan had been toying with them from the start and didn't take the fight seriously. If he had, they would've all been dead.Warrick clutched his chest and coughed up blood as he staggered to his feet. His chest was a charred ruin, the flesh torn open and slick with blood. It was an awful, gory mess."I didn't expect you to be this strong. I underestimated you," he growled.He slowly raised his head, and his face twisted with a menacing look. "Guess I was just unlucky to fall into your
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2512
"Oh? You guessed it?" Dustin smirked. "Now that you know who I am, it's up to you to decide what to do."If Warrick chose to surrender, Dustin would simply seal his pressure points and leave him to Austin's judgment. But if he resisted, Dustin wouldn't hesitate to cripple him."Haven't you given up your title as the prince? Why did you return? Are you going to compete with Austin for the throne?" Warrick asked.Uncertainty flickered across his face before he continued, "If that's your intention, I can help you. Spare me today, and I guarantee you'll become the next Prince of West Lucozia."Power was a tempting beast. History was filled with stories of brothers turning against each other and fathers murdering their sons for it.In Warrick's mind, Logan's quiet return to West Lucozia meant one thing—he was after the throne."Guarantee?" Dustin scoffed. "What guarantee are you offering?" His voice was dripping with disdain. "You're a cornered rat now. You're barely holding on to you

"Warrick's blade technique is terrifying," Mulder mumbled. "This should be the finishing blow, right?"Watching from a distance, he was awestruck by the dazzling blade aura. Only now did he truly grasp the sheer gulf between Warrick and Dustin.Warrick's strike descended with such overwhelming force that it seemed to split the earth and obliterate everything in its path. Even from 300 feet away, the pressure rolling off it sent a chill down Mulder's spine.Under Mulder's stunned gaze, Warrick brought his full weight down, with blade and body merging into a single force that swallowed Dustin whole.The instant they clashed, an incandescent explosion of light erupted. It was so blinding that Mulder couldn't even open his eyes.A split second later, a deafening blast erupted, and a shockwave shot outward like a tidal surge. The force flattened the waves and overturned several fishing boats docked at the pier.Even Mulder, more than 300 feet away, was caught in the blast and tumbled

"So what if I am? And what if I push even further?" Dustin's smile slowly faded. "If you don't like it, do something about it."There was no reasoning with tyrants like Warrick."Punk, are you really willing to risk your life against me? Have you ever considered what happens if you lose?" Warrick's face turned grim as a wave of killing intent spread from him.He had already taken a step back to avoid unnecessary trouble. If Dustin refused to back down, there was no choice but to fight."Cut the crap. You wanna fight, fight." Dustin didn't bother with more words. With a flick of his wrist, a silver needle shot out and aimed toward Warrick's forehead—silent, unassuming, but deadly."Hmm?" Warrick's brow furrowed as he instinctively raised his arm. Sparks flew as the needle deflected off his arm and buried into the ground."Oh? You've mastered the Adamantine Body Technique?" Dustin narrowed his eyes. At that instant, he saw through Warrick's technique. Not only was he halfway

Mulder's body trembled, and he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. His energy drained, and his entire being seemed to collapse.Dustin's finger flick had not only shattered his sword but also injured his internal organs. With the effects of the enhanced serum wearing off, Mulder was now back to his original state and completely spent.His once-powerful frame now shrank like a punctured balloon. He looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant. Mulder could no longer fight. Even standing up was a challenge."He's finished," Dustin said coolly, then looked at Warrick. "Now it's your turn.""Hmm?" Warrick frowned, and his expression turned serious.Dustin's display of strength earlier had made him feel a sense of crisis. If they fought head-on, there was no telling who would come out on top.But Warrick was just one step away from escaping West Lucozia, bound for Artea and a life of freedom and luxury. He had no intention of risking his life in battle unless he absolutely

"This is interesting." Dustin smirked as the dense barrage of swords came slashing down at him. In the blink of an eye, his figure dissolved into a wisp of smoke and vanished.A storm of sword shadows carrying the force that could split rivers and overturn seas crashed down on the fishing boat where he had just been standing. The entire vessel broke apart in an instant—some sinking into the depths while others drifted across the water."What? He dodged it?" Warrick's eyes flickered with surprise.Mulder's attack just now had been a 360-degree attack. Once caught in its range, there was no chance to dodge—only the option to endure. He couldn't understand how Dustin had managed to avoid it. Did he just teleport?"Hiding like a coward? What kind of warrior are you? Come fight me face-to-face."Frustrated after his attack missed again, Mulder grew desperate. His enhanced serum would only last for 15 minutes. If this dragged on, he'd collapse from exhaustion before Dustin even touche
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2507
"Oh? Are we going all out now?" Dustin smirked, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.Mulder, who had advanced to become a grandmaster martial artist through drugs, had a weak foundation. Even after taking the enhanced serum, he still posed no threat to Dustin. If Mulder were a hundred times stronger, he might just barely be able to fight Dustin.As the serum's effects pushed his body to the limit, Mulder suddenly let out a furious roar. His muscles swelled rapidly, and his bones cracked as they expanded. His body grew larger at an alarming rate, and his clothes tore apart under the strain.His six-foot frame stretched to nearly seven feet in mere moments as his body swelled to monstrous proportions. His face twisted fiercely, and his skin darkened as black scales surfaced.With another guttural growl, his roar turned beastlike. He grabbed his shredded shirt and ripped it away, exposing his broad chest covered in dark scales. A faint, eerie sheen flickered across their surface."D
