"What are you doing still standing there? Get lost!" Letitia shouted at her impatiently.Brittany seemed to wake up from a trance. She glared at Dustin as she pointed a finger at him. "You … you wretched bastards! Curse you!""Throw her out!" Letitia didn't want to deal with her anymore. The Jade Maiden Sisterhood disciples dragged Brittany away on Letitia's orders. If she stayed longer, she might anger Dustin with her nasty words. That would be terrible for them."I've driven her out of the sisterhood now, young man. Will you save Edith now?" Letitia asked after getting rid of Brittany."Pay up first," Dustin reminded."Sure." Letitia dared not wait any longer. She immediately transferred all the money she had to Dustin.Once the transaction was completed, Dustin nodded reluctantly.Under his orders, his men brought the unconscious Edith into the infirmary.After renovating Zephyr Lodge, it now had all sorts of facilities. From infirmaries to sparring halls and libraries,

Dustin jumped to his feet when he heard what Florence said. "How did that happen?""You beast! How dare you ask me how that happened? It's all because of you, of course!" Florence shouted. "After she met you the other night, Dahlia seemed to have lost her soul! She refused to eat or drink, and she cried endless nights! Then, this morning, she attempted suicide by jumping off the building!"Dustin felt like he'd been struck by lightning. His mind went completely blank. Never in his wildest dreams had he ever thought that Dahlia would act so rashly!How could she attempt suicide by jumping off a building without saying anything to anyone at all? Had she lost her mind?"She … How is she now?" There was a tremble in Dustin's voice."She's still in a critical condition and doing horribly! Her life is in danger!"And this is all because of you! You beast! You're the reason Dahlia threw herself off the building!"I'm warning you, Rhys! If anything happens to Dahlia, I'll make you pay

"Who are you? Do I know you?"Her words shocked Dustin.Florence and the rest of them exchanged bewildered looks."You … you don't recognize me?" Dustin was stunned."Should I know you?" Dahlia looked at him coldly.It was like she was looking at a stranger. She looked at him warily as if she wanted Dustin to stay away from her."Is something wrong? Let me have a look." Dustin went forward to check on her pulse. But the moment he touched her, she recoiled instantly, as if his touch burned her."What are you doing?" Dahlia looked at him frostily, caution in her eyes.Dustin wasn't used to how she was treating him like a total stranger. Could she be suffering from … amnesia?"Dahlia, what's wrong? Don't scare me!" Florence was flustered. Looking close to tears, she approached Dahlia and asked, "You can't have forgotten everything, can you? Don't you remember me?""Mom, what are you saying? Of course, I remember you!" Dahlia looked at her, confused."You do? Oh, that's grea

"Take care, and don't do anything reckless anymore. We'll meet again in the future."Dustin turned to leave after saying farewell. It seemed like things were fated to end between them."Mom, that man was weird. Have I met him before?" Dahlia frowned as she watched Dustin leave. Somehow, he made her feel nostalgic. But she couldn't recall who he was."No, of course, you haven't met him before. He's just an insurance agent. Why would you be concerned about him? "Here, lie down and have a good rest." Florence was overjoyed."That's right, Dahlia. You've just had a traffic accident and barely survived. Don't overthink things," Julie chimed in.To them, Dahlia forgetting about Dustin was a good thing."Okay." Dahlia nodded. Though things seemed weird to her, she didn't give them further thought.…Dustin's emotions were a mess on his way back.The current outcome was a relatively good ending for both of them. But somehow, Dustin couldn't find it within him to feel happy.Maybe

Dustin frowned when he saw Brittany. "Why are you here? Haven't you been kicked out of the sisterhood?""If Nikki can be reaccepted, then so can I! How's that? Do you like the surprise?" Brittany taunted as she crossed her arms.Dustin could plan all he wanted but could not go against Edith's word."I need a reasonable explanation." Dustin looked at Letitia."Young man, I must admit that you have cured Edith of her injuries. But we've paid you 50 billion as compensation. "I think that's more than enough. You should be appreciative," Letitia said calmly.She looked poised and showed no signs of remorse."Money is one thing, but this is an entirely different matter. Since you promised me, then you should have kept it. "The Jade Maiden Sisterhood is a decent guild. Are you going back on your word?" Dustin asked frostily."So what if we go back on our word? You have no place meddling in affairs of the sisterhood!" Brittany huffed."That's right! We will do as we please. It has

"Wait!"Nikki came running out and stood between Dustin and Edith. "Can we please sit down and talk things through calmly? There must be a misunderstanding. Please don't fight.""Get lost! This is none of your business!" Edith glared at her fiercely."Madam Edith, Dustin saved your life today! You can't repay his kindness with revenge!" Nikki was exasperated."Shut up! You're in no place to speak here!" Edith lost her cool. It was embarrassing for her to be lectured by her disciple."Madam Parker, I'm giving you a chance for Nikki's sake."Dustin demanded coldly, "If you break Brittany's leg, we can all pretend that nothing happened today.""Utter rubbish! Why should anyone do as you say? Who do you think you are?" Brittany glared at him."Have you gone mad, brat? What makes you think that I'll take orders from you?" Edith looked at him condescendingly."Why?" Dustin stepped forward before confidently saying, "Because I have the original copy of the Jade Maiden Scripture!
An Understated Dominance Chapter 896
For a moment, all eyes were on Brittany.The Jade Maiden Scripture was important to the Jade Maiden Sisterhood.But Dustin had made his condition known. He demanded that Brittany's leg be broken. And most importantly, he wanted Edith to do it personally."Dus—!" Nikki intended to speak for them, but Dustin cut her off by raising a hand. His gaze was fixed on Edith. "What do you say, Madam Parker?""Brittany is my lead disciple. I can never hurt her as her mentor," Edith said righteously."So I take it that you have no interest in the Jade Maiden Scripture?" Dustin raised a brow."Of course, I'm interested in it. But I do not plan to take orders from you."Edith lifted her chin and said, "I will have the scripture and protect my disciple. "Pass me the Jade Maiden Scripture now. That is an order. "If you do, I will forgive you for your rudeness earlier. Otherwise, do not be surprised if I attack you!"Dustin was so angered that he failed to hold back a laugh.She had rea

Nikki rushed over to stop Edith. "Madam Edith, you haven't recovered yet! Please stop!""Damn it, brat!" Infuriated, Edith slapped Nikki across the face. "If it weren't for the incomplete scripture you gave me, I wouldn't have gone to extremes in training and gotten injured!""I—it wasn't me …" Nikki held her cheek and shook her head frantically. "Stop lying!" Edith shouted. "How did that bastard get his hands on the Jade Maiden Scripture? I'm sure you were the one who stole it and gave it to him. You ungrateful bitch!""I didn't!" Nikki denied anxiously. "I see what you're up to, Nikki Horst. You gave Madam Edith the incomplete scripture and gave that bastard the real one. You're such a bitch!""I thought you were a loyal disciple. It turns out you're just a backstabber who betrayed us!""Enough with the acting. You make me sick!"Instantly, the Jade Maiden Sisterhood disciples began cursing at Nikki. They were sure Nikki must have conspired with Dustin and took the Ja

"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

"Glenn had only seven swords in the past. I didn't expect that in just one year, two more divine swords would recognize him as their master. This punk is much better than I was back then," Cyrus remarked. He stroked his chin with a look of surprise and approval. He had always believed in Glenn's potential, but Glenn's performance had still exceeded his expectations.After all, the more swords Glenn wielded, the stronger he became. He had already topped the Legendary List with just seven swords. Now, with nine, his strength had grown even more overwhelming."He truly is the Chosen One." Even Kaden couldn't help but sigh.The nine divine swords recognized their master and responded with ease. Glenn's talent and cultivation were leagues ahead of his peers.Every generation brought forth new talent, and the old had no choice but to step aside for the new generation. Compared to their time, today's youth were on another level—monsters in their own right."Now, this is going to be int

Compared to the second green sword, Glenn's third sword was even more powerful. As it descended, accompanied by the fury of a fire dragon, it carried the destructive force of a world-shattering storm.Fenley, whose energy flow was disrupted earlier, watched the fiery red long sword streak toward like a falling meteor. His heart raced and was gripped by a sudden sense of impending doom.With a roar, he risked the backlash effect and unleashed a powerful surge of internal energy. The ethereal divine spirit behind him instantly transformed into a figure with three heads and six arms. This was the complete form of the Four Elements of God's Technique.At that instant, he threw everything he had into the fight. He controlled the spirit to slam its giant arms into the flaming sword. With a loud explosion, the sword tore through the spirit's palms and continued its unyielding path toward Fenley. But its speed had slowed slightly.Without hesitation, he controlled the spirit to strike ag
