"What, me?" When all eyes fell on her, Julie couldn’t help but be stunned and speechless for a while.She was just here for the show, so why did she get implicated in this whole mess when she was just another person in the crowd?"Tell us everything you saw, and don't try to hide anything, Julie. I want to see how this punk can still argue his way out of this!" Florence ordered as she crossed her arms. "Yeah, Julie. Just tell us everything that’s on your mind. We must expose this punk for all his lies!" The Nicholsons spoke out in agreement."Um—" But before Julie could say anything, she stopped herself. Her response made the people in the crowd feel like she’d be a loose cannon. This was especially true for Matt, as he stood there with his heart pounding out of his chest while his forehead broke out in a cold sweat. He’d already been scared shitless when Dustin spoke out the truth just now, so if Julie also knew something and exposed him for being the one who lied instead,

"Slap!" A crisp noise sounded as Dahlia’s hand landed heavily on Dustin Rhy’s face.Due to the excessive force she applied behind the slap, the wounds on her hand that had just healed got torn open again, causing a stream of fresh blood to flow down her fingers.Dustin touched the side of his face that burned from the slap and merely stood right where he was with a neutral expression on his face. He could take all the misunderstandings and contempt from other people, but he refused to accept the fact that his ex-wife had just slapped him on behalf of another man."Why? Why do you insist on being this way?" Dahlia said through gritted teeth as her eyes filled with tears and immense disappointment overtook her.She couldn’t understand for the life of her why Dustin had become the person he was today. He was close-minded, full of jealousy, and a gossipmonger; he was even repaying kindness with evil now.All kinds of bad attributes were concentrated in the body of this man. She want

After staggering back to her ward, Dahlia felt as if her soul had left her body. She had a dead expression on her face, and her eyes were dull. She didn't realize that her bandaged hand was still dripping with blood. She remembered Dustin's disappointed gaze on her before he left, and it felt like a knife that kept stabbing at her heart. She knew that the two of them had grown further and further apart.In the past, she had always been career-oriented, as she was determined to carve her own path, which is why she ignored and sacrificed many things along the way. However, since the day of their divorce, she slowly started to realize something. It turns out that there are things in life that were more important than one’s career. However, it was a shame that she only realized this now. "Honey, I just heard that—" Florence said as she burst into the room upon seeing Dahlia enter inside moments before. "I just heard that it was that Rhys kid who was the one who laid hands on Ms

Back at the Peaceful Medical Center, Dustin downed glass after glass of wine without stopping, trying to numb himself with alcohol. Although he was expressionless, inwardly he couldn’t help feeling frustrated. Maybe he should finally let go of his past relationship and move on. "Doctor! Doctor!" Just as Dustin felt a little tipsy, a hurried knock was heard at the door. When he opened the doors, two beautiful young women were standing outside. One of them was dressed completely in white and looked like an angel from heaven. The aura she gave off was pure and innocent. The other woman was fully dressed in a black bodysuit that showed off her curves. She had prominent features that made her appear tough and masculine. However, she was bleeding profusely from the injury on her abdomen. Her face was drawn and pale from excessive blood loss. "Excuse me, is the doctor in? My friend is severely injured and needs immediate treatment!" The woman in white said in distress. "I am t

A resounding crash was heard as the doors to the center were busted open. Without hesitation, seven masked assassins swarmed into the center. "Shit! They caught up to us!" Claudia cursed. They were ambushed by these assassins, who wiped out their team of bodyguards. Only Claudia and Sheila managed to break through the siege and escape. Claudia thought that they had shaken off the pursuit. Unfortunately, the assassins were relentless. "Sheila, I’ll hold them back. You have to escape through the back door!" Claudia whispered. "If I escape, you will definitely be killed. I am their target, so they will not hurt me. I’ll let them take me as a hostage." Sheila’s face was pale. "Sheila! As your personal bodyguard, my duty is to ensure your safety. Listen to me!" Claudia stood in front of Sheila resolutely, protecting her. "There’s no need to argue. We will be taking the both of you!" A bald man laughed evilly as he walked in. Unlike the other assassins, this man wasn’t mask

After catching his breath, Thor wheezed. "Punk, you have some guts! It’s been a long time since I last saw a reckless fellow like you!" "Shut up and pay up already!" Dustin demanded impatiently. His mood was already ruined. These men needed to be taught a lesson for creating a mess on his property. "You really have a death wish! Boys, break his limbs! Let’s see whether he dares to talk back after this!" Thor smirked and gestured to his men."Yes, boss!" Without a second thought, the assassins swung their weapons at Dustin, with the intent to harm him. "Hey! You said you would let him go!" Sheila shrieked. "Ms. Murray, I did agree to not kill him. However, he seems to be dissatisfied with us. It would be rude to not teach him a lesson!" Thor had a cunning smile on his face. Suddenly, they were interrupted by the cries of pain from the assassins. Before the assassins could rush up to Dustin, they fell over one by one, as if they had been struck by lightning. All of the ass

"Venomous curses? How could you be certain? Are you familiar with curses?" Claudia asked, puzzled. "I know a little." Dustin nodded. "Only shady, wicked characters would learn the art of venomous curses. As expected, you are not a good person! Speak up, who are you?" Claudia lifted the sword and pointed it at Dustin. "Claudia! What are you doing? He is our savior!" Sheila quickly stood in front of Dustin to protect him. "Sheila, get out of the way. This man is being suspicious. I must investigate him thoroughly." Claudia’s eyes glittered. "Before you investigate me, I recommend that you get your head checked." Dustin rubbed his temples. "Don’t you know that curses can be used to heal? Of course, many nefarious villains use curses for their own benefit. However, not everyone is as bad as you imagine. It depends on the user’s character. Besides, the martial arts families aren’t as innocent as you make them out to be. Crimes such as pillaging, corruption, and rape are rampan

The next morning, Dustin was awakened by someone knocking on his door. He opened the door to see Hunter at his door."Mr. Anderson, what brings you here so early in the morning?" Dustin yawned."Good news, Mr. Rhys!" Hunter exclaimed with excitement. "The rare herb that you’re looking for, the Gozoraberry, I know where we can find it!""Gozoraberry? Are you sure?" Dustin’s interest was piqued. The Gozoraberry was rare and hard to come by. As with all other rare herbs, it was invaluable. If he could get his hands on the Gozoraberry, then he would only need three more precious herbs to make the Longevitum!"Of course, I’m sure! The Gozoraberry used to be a treasure from Stoneray Valley, but recently, someone bought it at an exorbitant price. And that person happens to be staying at Fallridge Haven!" Hunter nodded. "Oh? Who is it?" Dustin raised a brow."It’s Caden Murray!" Hunter said."Caden Murray? What does he need the Gozoraberry for?" Dustin’s eyes narrowed. He had never met Caden

The poisoned needles zipped through the air with blinding speed. They were impossible to avoid, and each was aimed directly at vital points. One hit meant certain death."Hmph! What a simple parlor trick." The gray-robed elder, Aven Foyer, stood motionless. A sudden burst of golden light flared around him. The needles struck the light but bounced away, which left him completely unharmed."Glow Incantation?" Marcell seemed to have expected this. He smirked but didn't stop attacking. With a quick motion, his hands moved in rapid succession. A new wave of poison needles poured out like a torrential storm and swept toward Aven."Get him!" Marcell shouted as he signaled his men to attack.He knew well that the guardian of Sacred Wyrm Summit's forbidden ground wasn't someone he could take down alone. So, he had no choice but to overwhelm Aven with numbers."Kill him!"Without hesitation, the two groups of men drew their weapons and charged toward Aven in a coordinated assault. Pois

"Open up!" Danny roared as he slammed his fist into the bronze door. A surge of internal energy exploded from his body.The door shook with a deafening boom, and dust scattered, but nothing unusual happened. The symbols on its surface flickered briefly before fading."Hmm?" Danny froze as he stared at the undamaged door in disbelief. With his natural strength and the power his techniques granted him, he had expected the bronze door to shatter easily. But what he saw before him completely defied his expectations.The murmurs behind him only added to his unease. He had boasted so confidently about smashing the door open, yet it hadn't budged an inch. His face flushed with embarrassment."I don't believe it!" Danny took a deep breath and channeled all his internal energy into his fists before striking the bronze door again.Another loud crash echoed as the bronze door trembled, and the dust fell off. The mysterious symbols on the door glowed once more. Like before, the door remain

"Mr. Sadrick, we're trapped in this enchantment circle. What should we do now?" Danny looked around frantically, but he couldn't make sense of the direction.He had thought that following Dustin would keep them safe, especially with someone ahead scouting the path. But as soon as they entered the Forbidden Ground, the thick fog blocked their vision, and they lost track of everyone."Don't panic. Just keep moving forward, and we'll get out of here." Marcell's gaze scanned the ground.There was only one path. The faint footprints left by Dustin and the others would be their guide. As long as they followed the trail, they should be able to catch up with the others."Stay close, everyone! Don't fall behind, or you'll face the consequences!" Danny shouted at the group.Everyone responded and tightened up their formation. At this critical moment, falling behind could mean running straight into danger.Under Marcell's lead, the two groups merged and started moving forward. Everyone was

When the fire broke out on Sacred Wyrm Summit, Dustin received the order to launch the attack. He immediately led a team to infiltrate the Forbidden Ground as planned.With the Hall of Gods' large-scale invasion in full swing, the summit was in chaos, with people scrambling to extinguish the fire. This left the Forbidden Ground unprotected, as most regular guards had been reassigned. Only the mountain itself stood alone and was isolated in its stillness.Still, he didn't underestimate the Sacred Wyrm Summit's defenses. Even without guards, the Forbidden Ground wasn't a place anyone could simply enter. After all, the summit was known for having the most powerful enchantment circle in the martial world.When Dustin and his team reached the back mountain, they discovered that two other teams had already arrived ahead of them.These groups, hired by the Hall of Gods, were primarily composed of shady individuals. While their ethics were questionable, their strength was unquestionable.

After taking the enhanced serum, everyone became increasingly worked up. Their strength skyrocketed, and their thirst for battle was off the charts. The atmosphere in the room was electric."Is this the Hall of Gods' enhanced serum? This stuff is amazing.""I can already feel the power flowing through me. I'm itching for a fight.""Those worthless Dragonmarsh martial artists—tonight, I'll ensure they're wiped out completely.""Since you have such a treasure, why didn't you bring it out sooner? How much of this serum do you have left? I'll buy it all." Willem's voice was full of swagger."These are premium S-class serums. They're extremely rare and reserved only for the higher-ups. We don't sell them to outsiders. What I can offer you are A-class serums. But, if you're interested, I could send you a batch for free," Bailey replied generously."In that case, I won't hold back." Willem laughed heartily.Getting something for free was always the best deal. Whether for personal use o

"M-Mr. Rhys, I'm truly sorry. I was wrong earlier. Please don't hold it against me, and forgive me this once." After a moment of stunned silence, Zayne quickly apologized, with sweat beading on his forehead. He knew Dustin was an ultimate grandmaster who could instantly end his life."Don't do it again." Dustin shot him a cold glare but didn't take the opportunity to strike.In his eyes, these people had already sealed their fate by colluding with the Hall of Gods and infiltrating Sacred Wrym Summit. It was just a matter of when they would die."Of course, Mr. Rhys. Thank you for your mercy." Zayne nodded repeatedly. His face was a mixture of relief and gratitude.It was clear that if not for Dustin's magnanimity, today could have been his last. He had learned a hard lesson in humility—never blindly flatter or misread the situation, or death would come soon enough."I'll cut it short. We all have the same goal here. As long as we work together, I'm confident we'll succeed in tonig

"Someone is coming. You should hide now." Dustin's sharp senses picked up the faint shuffle of footsteps outside the door. The movement was quiet and deliberate. It was definitely someone skilled."Got it." Grace nodded and quickly gathered the Dracan essences before slipping out the window. She was gone in seconds and vanished without a trace.Barely three seconds after she left, there was a knock at the door."Who is it?" Dustin asked."It's me, Hank."A familiar voice called from the other side.Dustin got up and opened the door. He greeted him with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Styles. Come on in."For Hank to show up at this hour meant the Hall of Gods was about to take action."Dustin, congratulations on winning the championship. I wanted to offer my congratulations in person." Hank entered the room and showered Dustin with praise. "I watched your match today, and it was incredible. Defeating Glenn was a pleasant surprise. I knew I wasn't wrong about you.""If it weren't for yo

"Ms. Aurora, don't make fun of me. The Celestial Alliance is full of experts—there's no way someone like me could take on a disciple," Dustin declined with a smile. "Of course, we're friends. If you ever want to talk about martial arts, just reach out.""Alright then, if I ever need advice, you'd better not turn me down," Aurora said with a playful wink.She was just asking to see how he would respond. After all, she wasn't serious about wanting to become his disciple. It was more of a way to get closer to him, and now that she had an excuse to ask for his guidance, she was satisfied.Once everyone was seated, the conversation flowed easily. They drank and talked about anything and everything.The two Marshall sisters exchanged flirtatious glances across the table, a gesture that even the most oblivious observer couldn't miss.However, Dustin kept a polite smile on his face. He either ignored their advances or skillfully deflected them.He knew exactly what they were after. With

"Me?" Dustin froze momentarily, then quickly waved his hands to indicate his refusal. "Ancient Sage, you've got to be kidding. I'm not qualified to guard the Dracan force. You'd better find someone else."He knew taking on such a monumental responsibility was out of the question. Guarding the Dracan Force wasn't like watching over someone's garden. A single mistake could endanger not only Sacred Wyrm Summit but all of Dragonmarsh. The pressure was simply overwhelming."Don't be so quick to refuse," Arion said with a smile. He continued, "Guarding the Dracan force has its perks. For one, it's a spiritual entity. If you can connect with it, your cultivation will soar, and your lifespan will extend dramatically. With its power behind you, you'll be unbeatable. No one in the world could stand in your way."Arion wasn't exaggerating. Being recognized by the Dracan force as its guardian granted access to its vast energy and created a resonance with the natural order. It was what people
