Chapter 163

Author: Autumn Rain
“Who was behind it all?” Dustin asked.

“I don’t know,” said Brennan and shook his head.

Dustin scowled and was just about to gesture to Blake to continue his killing when Brennan cried out anxiously, “I really don’t know! I’m not the only one. Most of the people who participated in the operation don’t know either. That person never showed his face. We only know that the order was passed down through the ranks. We don’t even know who exactly gave the order and who led everyone through it.

“Many of the people who took part were drawn in by a bounty post on the global black market. We received a notification and gathered in one place before doing what we needed to do.”

Dustin narrowed his eyes.

The mastermind had acted with caution.

Even if he made use of the special privilege given to him as the King of Hades to look into the global black market, the bounty was put up more than twenty years ago, and he might not be able to find any clues.

“The bounty was put up anonymously.

    Dustin sneered. “Certainly not. If you tell me, I can leave one person alive, but if you don’t, I’m going to annihilate your entire family.” Brennan’s face turned grim, but in the end, he could only sigh. Then, he whispered, “I can tell you that the person who gave the orders that day was someone with a red spider lily tattoo on the back of his hand.” Dustin’s face froze. Some organizations used tattoos to mark their members. That was a very common thing. But he had never heard of any organization that used a red spider lily tattoo on the backs of their hands. Dustin turned to Drake. “My Liege, I’ve never heard of such an organization before,” said Drake and bowed to him. “Look into it,” Dustin said. “Understood.” Drake left. “Anything else?” Dustin looked at Brennan. Brennan had a complicated look on his face. In the end, he said regretfully, “If I could turn back time, I would have made sure the Aquila family never took part in something like this.” Dustin’s f

    Bianca was in a five-star luxury hotel six miles away from the Aquila family. In a presidential suite, she soaked in a bathtub. Her phone was right beside her. She was feeling great today and hummed a cheerful tune. She had no idea what had happened to the Aquila family. She did not care. She was certain that things would progress according to her plan. She had always looked down on Dustin and regarded him with disdain. Even if Dustin was no longer the person he was from the past, she still looked down on him. So, she believed that the last resort that she had provided the Aquila family with was enough to keep Dustin in check. “I told Brennan to keep Dustin alive. I’m going to toy with him on behalf of my cousins until he sinks into despair!” Bianca sneered. Soon, her phone rang. Bianca answered it. When she heard the news, her face changed. “What? Dustin left the Aquila family unharmed?!” she cried out in disbelief. Once she confirmed the news, she stood up from the

    Dustin walked in front of the sovereign grade fighter and removed his mask. With just one glance, his face darkened. He could not see the fighter’s face at all. The poison had not just taken his life but had also corroded his face rapidly. Dustin had seen this sort of poison before in his medical books. Assassination organizations often used it to kill people and silence them. This person’s corpse would be reduced to a pool of blood within a short period of time and leave nothing behind, which also meant that Dustin would not be able to get any clues. The knowledge was a sobering burden on him. An organization capable of training such powerful assassins was certainly something to be feared. Soon, a Hell Guard showed up and greeted Dustin. “My Liege, Blake and Jennifer were ambushed,” the Hell Guard said. Dustin did not even listen to what had happened to them. He headed straight to where the Torell siblings were. When he arrived, Blake and Jennifer were pale, but th

    The West family villa’s living room was jam-packed with people that morning. All the core family members were there, along with some Zimmer family members. The Zimmer family members were excited because Dustin had finally summoned them. The Wyatt family had gained a lot of capital recently, and the Zimmer family had lost because of it. They begged Dustin for help and joined Hell Hall, but Dustin had only asked them to wait. If Dustin did nothing about the whole situation, the Zimmer family was going to fall. “You’ll be using the money we got from the Aquila family as start-up capital,” Dustin said to the people. “From today, the West family and the Zimmer family will work together as strategic partners. I hope that you can gain your own footing in Lannopolis.” “Thank you, Master Fox. We won’t let you down!” The West family agreed to it happily. Ever since the Fox family was destroyed, the West family had faced persecution and had fallen from grace. Finally, they could mak

    Before he could confront Bianca, she had sent her people to him. “How dare you address Miss Bianca directly? You clearly don’t know your place! You should be punished!” Lewis barked with a stern face as he pointed at Dustin and yelled. Dustin glanced at him calmly and said, “Yes. A punishment is definitely in order.” “Then, go ahead, or should I give you a hand with that?” Lewis sneered. The words had barely left his mouth when his vision blurred. Smack! A deafening slap echoed through the air. Lewis grimaced, and he was sent flying before he crashed headfirst into a nearby flower bed. When he raised his head, blood trickled from his nose and mouth. He was shocked as much as he was angry. He could not fathom who had hit him. He had not even seen it coming. He represented the Winter family. How could anyone here have the audacity to hit him?! He shouted in rage, “What the f*ck?! Are you mad?” Smack! Another blow struck him and sent him sprawling in the opposite

    Bianca stood by the window inside a lavish hotel suite. Her delicate face was twisted in rage. A disheveled Lewis knelt before her, with a swollen face stained with blood. His teeth had been knocked out, and he managed to stammer out his tale of humiliation and suffering at the West family villa. He recounted Dustin’s blatant insolence and ruthlessness. “Miss Bianca, Dustin...” he said and wheezed through the gaps between his teeth. “He doesn’t respect you! He doesn’t respect anyone! People like him won’t learn their place unless you crush them!” Bianca narrowed her eyes with a chilling ferocity. “Oh Dustin, so you refuse the easy way out and insist on challenging me? Fine! Do you think the world revolves around you? Do you think no one can bring you down? Let me show you—there’s always someone stronger than you in this world.” She had hoped to threaten Dustin into surrendering the guards using the damning evidence. But his indifference showed her that he was not afraid to gamb

    Few martial artists in Lovellia dared to defy the Martial League. Dustin had never heard of Victor Cain. “Who is Victor Cain?” he asked the members of the West family. Lucius’s face grew solemn. “Mr. Cain is no ordinary man. He’s revered as the strongest martial artist in all of Lannopolis—a legendary sovereign grade fighter. He earned the title of National Hero for his exceptional contributions to Lovellia. He once served as the head of the Lannopolis branch of the Martial League. Though he has since retired, his influence and prestige remain unparalleled and command immense respect from martial artists across Lannopolis...” Dustin raised an eyebrow as his interest was piqued. A National Hero—the nation’s pride, bestowed with privileges few could imagine. Yet, what drew Dustin’s attention was the claim that this man was the strongest in Lannopolis. “Master Fox, Mr. Cain has sent the Martial League to arrest you. The situation is dire! You mustn’t resist them. Any violen

    The crowd erupted in an uproar as soon as Dustin spoke. “Such arrogance!” “Shameless fool!” “Who do you think you are? Reckless brat!” … The elite martial artists sprang to their feet and berated Dustin furiously. The Lannopolis martial arts community had judged its fair share of notorious martial artists who had committed crimes before, but none had been as cheeky as Dustin. With so many powerful elites present, the Martial League keeping order, and Lannopolis’s strongest fighters presiding over the proceedings, most would struggle to hold themselves upright, let alone speak. “Dustin Fox, do you even know where you are? Do you think you’re still in Rivenesco? It’s one thing to dismiss these elite martial artists, but Mr. Cain? You’re not just arrogant. You’re laughable.” Bianca sneered mockingly. Dustin remained nonchalant and unfazed by the commotion around him. “National Hero, huh? Lannopolis’s so-called strongest fighter? Well, I’m unimpressed,” he said d

    There was an invitation card on a table at the villa where Simone and her family were staying. David and Simone frowned as they looked at it. It was from the main Langley family. “Alvern Langley will have his seventieth birthday soon and has invited us to the banquet. They even said that they will return the things we seek,” David said. “Our families are estranged, so why did they send us this invitation? It must be a trap!” Simone agreed as well. “Let’s ignore them. They’re on the verge of bankruptcy anyway. When the time comes, they will naturally have to return those things to us anyway.” Dustin only smiled. “We should go. Why shouldn’t we? I sure want to see what they have planned.” It was about time to deal with the main Langley family once and for all. … It was a big day for the main Langley family. Alvern Langley, the eldest member of the main Langley family, was about to celebrate his seventieth birthday. Dustin and Simone were all cleaned up and

    The members of the main Langley family gathered in the main hall of their home. They had been thoroughly humiliated during the launch event. At the same time, all their hopes had been crushed. Without the sales rights of those drugs, their pharmaceutical company had no way to grow. At this point, Dusmone Pharmaceuticals had pushed Sunrise Pharmaceuticals right to the edge. The company’s stock price reached a trench, and the main Langley family lost nearly a trillion dollars in just a few days. As for Dusmone Pharmaceuticals, they were currently doubling down on their efforts. The main Langley family could do nothing to challenge them. None of them had any ideas for how to counter the situation. Right then, a member of their staff came up with more bad news. “Is this true?” In the seat of honor, Conan glared at the servant. “Sir, it’s true! All of Rivenesco knows about it. Everyone knows that Dustin beat up the eldest son of the Wilder family of Somerton. He’s cur

    “Please sit.” The movers were very polite as they placed the chairs behind David and Monique. Brian took over from a mover and placed Simone’s chair for her personally. “Miss Simone, please sit,” Brian said with a smile. Simone and her family were stunned and did not dare to sit down. Why was Foxtin suddenly treating them so well? Conan and the others were similarly confused. Their expressions were ones of shock. Why was Foxtin treating these insignificant members of the branch family so well? They were the important ones here! “Mr. Foxtin, these three are not members of our family!” Conan had no choice but to remind Foxtin loudly. “Are you certain?” Foxtin’s voice was chilly. “Positive!” Conan said solemnly. “Since you have no relation, what did you come in here for? Do you think you have what it takes to be in this hall?” Foxtin suddenly shouted. The members of the main Langley family were stunned. “But… didn’t you ask us to come in?” someone asked weakly

    All members of the Langley family were led to a medium-sized hall. “Mr. Foxtin’s right up there. Are we all here? Please don’t approach without permission,” Brian said flatly. They all agreed and stood in place to wait. The door before them slid open and displayed a set of curtains. Behind the curtains was a silhouette of a sitting figure. It was clear that they would not be seeing Foxtin face-to-face. “Greetings, Mr. Foxtin!” Conan bowed reverently to the figure behind the curtains. The rest of the main Langley family did the same. Foxtin was someone that even Brian treated with the greatest respect. Thus, they did not dare to show any disrespect. Just the longevity and the beauty pills meant that Foxtin would become a legendary figure. Simone, David, and Monique all carried themselves carefully as well. They quickly followed and prepared to bow. “You don’t need to bow,” Brian said and stopped them. Simone and her parents looked distressed. Did Foxtin not wa

    Instantly, there was an uproar below the stage. Foxtin had not even shown up nor had there been any sort of selection process. How had the choice been made so quickly? Only the members of the main Langley family were pleased. They looked like they were the only ones who had been smart enough to jump on the chance. At this point, they were only waiting to see Foxtin. “Who did Mr. Foxtin choose?” someone below the stage asked. The host smiled and said, “The Langley family.” Thrilled, the members of the main Langley family jumped for joy. As promised, Brian had gotten them the sales rights. They had not wasted the money at all. “This is wonderful!” The members of the main Langley family were all happy and smug. Their noses were high in the air as they welcomed the attention of everyone around them. They had never gotten such an honor before. “The Langley family, huh?” When Simone’s family heard the host’s answer, they were somewhat torn. There were only them a

    “Luna!” The members of the main Langley family were displeased as they watched Luna flee. They had come in high spirits and high hopes. Yet, they faced disappointment after disappointment. First, Orion and Archer were arrested on the charge of grand theft auto. Then, Luna had been humiliated in public and had to run off. The members of the main Langley family were thoroughly shamed. However, they could not leave as they had yet to get the sales rights of those two pills. “Thank you for risking your reputation as a guarantor for me, Mr. Copper. You’ve done so much for me,” Simone said gratefully. After all that had happened, Simone was still a little bit stunned to believe that Dennis had risked his reputation to give a fake statement because of Dustin. It was only in this way that they had been able to maintain their reputation. “Don’t mention it, Miss Simone. It’s an honor to be able to authenticate such an amazing piece of jewelry. Getting to help you out was

    Everyone instantly fell silent and stared. That necklace was not fake? Luna was stunned. Her face was a mask of disbelief. “As for the amethyst on the necklace, it’s a perfect specimen. I have never seen such a perfect stone in my life. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s priceless! This necklace is the real Luxuria!” Dennis’s voice reverberated through the room and practically echoed. Everyone in the room was delighted. Luna could not believe her ears. The necklace was real? That flea market piece of junk was real? How was that possible? It was impossible! She refused to believe it! Luxuria was a piece of jewelry that even the Queen of Irkland could not get even though she offered an exorbitant price for it. How could Dustin compare to her? How in the world had he gotten his hands on it? “This is really a priceless necklace?” The members of the main Langley family were stunned. The necklace was not something a member from a branch of the Langle

    Everyone looked toward the source of the voice. The speaker was a chubby middle-aged man in a pristine suit. He carried himself with some charisma. “It’s him! It’s the King of Jewels, Dennis Copper!” someone cried out upon recognizing the man. It was clear that Dennis was someone who was very well-known. “The King of Jewels!” Luna was taken aback. Dennis was a big shot in the jewelry business in Hattan and indubitably its top jewel magnate. His jewelry business had reached every corner of the country, and he had stores everywhere. That was why he was called the King of Jewels. Dennis was a very important person in Hattan, with a high standing in their society. Dennis was the leading authority when it came to jewels. “I can tell with just a glance whether a jewel is fake. Since we have such a lively crowd here, how about I authenticate that for myself?” Dennis said with a smile. “Mr. Copper, this is a piece of junk that costs only ten dollars. How can we bother yo

    “A cheap fake necklace from the internet?” The socialites frowned. “How can you say my necklace is fake? This is an engagement gift from Dustin!” Simone said angrily. “That explains it,” Luna said with a smug look. “With a fiance like that, how could he afford the real thing? You really think too highly of him.” Simone’s face darkened. She did not know much about the necklace. But since it was a gift from Dustin, she liked it. She thought it was very beautiful and decided to wear it today. “Do you even know what the real one looks like?” Luna looked at her with mockery. “The real version, ‘Luxuria,’ was just released by the world’s top jewelry brand. The chain alone is made of 108 top-quality diamonds. Each diamond is worth millions!” Luna spoke proudly. She was pleased with her knowledge on the necklace. “The pendant is a purple gemstone that was mined from beneath an ancient iceberg in the far north, where it has been for millions of years. Its size and purity are rare,
