Chapter 1604

Author: Marina Vittori
They had to stick to their accusation against Dustin no matter what happened today.

"Mr. Hudson?" Allen stumbled over and knelt in front of him. "I'm Allen Bosman. At your service!"

"Holly's dead?" Fenley asked, cutting straight to the chase.

"She … she's dead." Allen looked ashamed. "I arrived late for the rescue, and I asked for Mr. Hudson's forgiveness."

"Worthless!" Fenley raised his hand and delivered a forceful slap to Allen's face, sending him flying. Allen coughed up blood and struggled to get up.

"Whoever killed Holly, step forward and face your death," Fenley said, his emotionless gaze sweeping the surroundings with a chilling coldness that cut to the bone.

"It's him! He killed Holly!" Eleanor pointed at Dustin angrily. She wished she could skin him alive.

"That's right, that's right! We saw it with our own eyes. He's the killer!" Elena chimed in loudly.

"Did you kill Holly?" Fenley looked at Dustin as a chilling light flashed across his eyes.

"I didn't kill her. S

It's interesting but there are certain unnecessary repetitions and it's too short for a chapter

I liked the book at the beginning but this is getting tedious and boring. For days on end the chapters just circle around unimportant narrative without ending.

    "It's not important to know who I am. If you don't want to be used as a pawn, you should calm down and think. I have no grudge against you or your sister, so why would I want to harm her?" Dustin warned."That is my question to ask," Fenley said, narrowing his eyes."I have to say this no matter if you believe it or not. Someone deliberately set this up to use you to kill me," Dustin responded seriously."Who would have the guts to use me?" Fenley continued asking."The two people behind you know all about it. Why don't you ask them?" Dustin raised his chin slightly toward Eleanor and Elena, hinting at something.Upon hearing that, Eleanor immediately retorted, "Nonsense! Mr. Hudson, this person is deliberately accusing us to get out of trouble. Don't fall into his trap. You should kill him quickly to avenge Holly!""That's right. Holly won't be able to rest in peace if you don't kill him," Elena added.They wouldn't let go of the opportunity of using someone to kill Dustin."I

    From how imposing Fenley's aura was, one would be torn into pieces if they were sucked into the vortex.Everyone could only fearfully grasp onto any sturdy objects near them to prevent them from being sucked into the vortex."Fury of Wind God!" After gathering his energy, Fenley thrust out his palm.The deity-like shadow behind him mirrored the same movement.With a loud boom, the air seemed to have been split apart.The majestic energy transformed into a massive palm shadow. It looked like it was going to wreck everything in its path as it hurled toward Dustin.Wherever the palm shadow passed, a howling gale followed. The piercing wind directly sliced deep marks onto the ground.The damage it could cause was terrifying.Dustin didn't choose to dodge. Instead, he decided to challenge it head-on.He would like to see how powerful the Four Elements of God's Technique was."Black Tortoise!"With a tremble, the profound and pure energy inside Dustin instantly surged.In the bli

    "What happened? The guy didn't die?"Everyone looked at each other in shock when they saw Dustin standing in the middle unscathed.The Four Elements of God's Technique was widely acknowledged as a martial arts masterpiece. Each move and technique within it carried terrifying power. There was no way Dustin could possibly withstand it.Perhaps Fenley had gone easy on him."What? He still isn't dead yet? He's as resilient as a cockroach!" Elena widened her eyes in disbelief.Fenley's strike just now was extremely terrifying and destructive. Even someone as sturdy as iron probably couldn't withstand it. Yet, Dustin seemed unscathed. This was truly hard for Elena to accept. "Mr. Hudson must have gone easy on them. That's why Dustin was able to escape. However, there are still two more moves left. Dustin will definitely be killed by then!"After a moment of shock, Eleanor soon calmed down.Although Dustin was capable, he was nothing compared to Fenley.Eleanor was sure that Dusti

    The turtle-shell-like protective shield trembled slightly. It emitted a layer of golden light that appeared dazzling against the backdrop of the flames.With a loud bang, the terrifying fire dragon collided forcefully with Dustin's protective shield. Flames scattered and surged everywhere in an instant.A scorching fire instantly spread out from the center of impact and swept through the entire Poise Brothel.Poise Brothel started to tremble violently. This caused many decorations to fall off.The green tiles on the ceiling started to shower down.The fire instantly ignited the surrounding wooden structures."Quick! Put out the fire!"Jennie didn't care about anything else. She instructed Poise Brothel's employees to start extinguishing the fire.There was a saying that ordinary people were the ones who suffered when geniuses fought.Fenley and Dustin had only exchanged a few moves. Yet, Poise Brothel was already a mess. If they continued fighting, the entire Poise Brothel wou

    "You're … You're actually fine?"Seeing the indifferent-looking Dustin, Fenley couldn't help but freeze in shock. After all, Fury of Fire God was twice as powerful as Fury of Wind God.Using it to kill a grandmaster martial artist was absolutely effortless. However, not only did Dustin not die, but he wasn't even injured. His defensive power was truly terrifying."I'm fine. However, my clothes are burnt."Dustin grabbed the hem of his clothes and pointed at the charred spot.Fenley was rendered speechless.Fury of Fire God was capable of killing a grandmaster martial artist. Yet, it had only managed to char a bit of Dustin's clothes.At that, Fenley felt utterly humiliated."The Four Elements of God's Technique is recognized as one of martial arts' supreme skills. Yet, he managed to block two of the techniques. How amazing.""I have to admit he is quite capable!""I wonder which alliance this capable martial artist is from? His face doesn't ring a bell to me."Everyone fel

    The black deity statue has a fierce and terrifying face, with a mouth full of sharp fangs.The energy that it emitted especially made one shiver in fear.Everyone standing outside Poise Brothel felt suffocated. It was as if a huge rock was weighing down their chests, causing them to feel uncomfortable.Some of the weaker ones started feeling wobbly on their knees. Cold beads of sweat even rolled down their foreheads. As they couldn't take the overbearing energy, they started vomiting."Fury of Thunder God!" Fenley suddenly shouted.After that, he manipulated the black deity statue behind him to throw a punch into the air.At this moment, the statue seemed to come alive. It swung its massive fist and smashed them toward Dustin's head.The punch was extremely shocking and unstoppable. Just as Dustin was about to activate energy armor, a frightening thunder blasted beside his ear. The thunderous sound rang directly into his heart, catching him off guard. Dustin's body trembled,

    Eleanor and Elena gulped nervously. They fixed their gazes on the spot where the strange noise came from the ruins. They feared that Dustin would suddenly pop up from it.If that happened, it would be way too scary.After staring at it for a while, they let out a sigh of relief after confirming that nothing happened. They felt completely relaxed at this point."It looks like we're overthinking. Nobody can withstand such a strong attack. I'm sure Dustin is already smashed to bits." Eleanor wiped the sweat off her forehead."That's right! Even someone made from iron couldn't have survived!" Elena quickly nodded.The noise just now must have been something else.Otherwise, there was no way Dustin wouldn't have died. Fenley's attack was terribly strong, after all.In the end, the duo was just giving themselves a scare.Fenley also secretly let out a breath. Honestly, he was also shocked by the strange noise just now. He was thankful that Dustin was not alive. Otherwise, it would be

    "You … Who are you?"Fenley furrowed his brow, his expression grim.Although Dustin looked a bit haggard in his battered clothing, there was not a single injury on him.Most importantly, Dustin was breathing normally and looked refreshed. It seemed as if he got more and more energetic after fighting.It was extremely terrifying!"Huh?"At this moment, Fenley spotted something and widened his eyes.Through Dustin's battered clothing, Fenley discovered in shock that Dustin had a Kirin tattoo.The Kirin was black, causing its red eyes to stand out. It emitted an eerie light under the moonlight.It was even more terrifying that Fenley felt an uncontrollable sense of fear when he looked into the Kirin's eyes.It was a kind of domination that originated from the depths of the soul. One would find it mysterious and difficult to resist."When Kirin appears, all other animals have to bow down to him. Are you perhaps Kirin, Logan Rhys?" Fenley asked after pausing for a moment. He ha

    "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

    The ashen-faced Huxley was dragged away. With his crimes exposed, his fate was sealed. His entire family would be implicated, and their assets would be seized.Those guilty would be punished, and even those who had merely benefited from his corruption would be held accountable. To put it bluntly, Huxley's entire family was about to be annihilated.Austin issued his next order once the bloodstains were cleaned up. "Axel, it's time to bring in the mastermind."With Huxley dealt with, the next step was to confront Warrick. Unlike Huxley, Warrick wouldn't be easy to deal with. After all, he commanded a large number of troops. If backed into a corner, he could become a major threat."Understood!" Axel responded respectfully, then turned to his subordinates. "Gather more men and come with me."Warrick had earned his prestigious position through years of fierce battles. On the battlefield, he was a one-man army, a warrior capable of taking on thousands. His strength was beyond what mos

    "You bastard! With all this evidence in front of you, what do you have to say for yourself?" Austin barked."Your Highness, please let me explain…" Huxley broke out in a cold sweat, his voice trembling with panic."This is a lie. Someone's trying to frame me! I've always followed the law—how could I possibly be involved in something so vile?""The evidence is right in front of you, and you're still trying to weasel out of it?" Austin shot back. "Looks like you won't confess until death is knocking at your door."He raised his hand and ordered, "Guards, throw him into Grimhold Keep. Use whatever means necessary—let's see how long he keeps up this act.""Yes, Your Highness."A squad of enforcement team members rushed in and surrounded Huxley.Cornered, Huxley finally lost his nerve. He dropped to his knees with a thud and begged, "Your Highness, I admit I made a grave mistake."His voice cracked as he continued, "I wasn't thinking clearly at the time. Please, for the sake of my y

    Night had fallen. Austin sat in the meeting room, quietly reading a book as he waited for the results of the investigation.After successfully turning Percival against his allies, it was only a matter of time before they uncovered solid evidence of Warrick and Huxley's crimes.For years, the castle had turned a blind eye to their shady dealings. After all, corruption among officials was nothing new.But this time was different. The two had secretly orchestrated Jovian's murder, a direct challenge to the authority and dignity of the royal family. Such defiance couldn't be ignored. If Austin didn't set an example, others would surely follow."Your Highness!"Axel burst into the meeting room, panting heavily. He had clearly run the whole way to avoid any delay.Austin set his book aside and asked calmly, "Well? How did it go?""Your Highness, we've completely shut down all of Warrick and Huxley's illicit operations. Every hidden network they had built over the years has also been d

    At that moment, Percival truly panicked. Earlier, he had only worried about being implicated. But now, faced with such a serious accusation, he was completely caught off guard."Hmph! The evidence is irrefutable, and you still dare deny it? Do you want me to torture the truth out of you?" Austin barked."Your Highness, I'm innocent!" Percival was so terrified he was on the verge of tears. He raised his hand and swore, "If I had anything to do with Jovian's death, may I be damned for eternity.""If swearing oaths proved innocence, we wouldn't need an enforcement team," Austin said coldly. "Out of respect for your years of service to West Lucozia, I'll give you a chance to come clean and receive a lighter sentence. Tell the truth now, or I'll throw you into Grimhold Keep."At the mention of Grimhold Keep, Percival began to shake uncontrollably. Tears and snot ran down his face as he wailed, "Your Highness, I swear I didn't do anything. Who's the bastard making up these accusations?
