Even if they stood there and attacked Dustin for hours, they could not break his defense. It did not matter if they were Novice Martial Saints or Intermediate Martial Saints, they were not any different in Dustin’s eyes. All of them were weak. Dustin threw out a strike casually, but the attack was very aggressive. The prodigies could not help but be astonished when they saw it.Phew! With just one strike, the three people who were rushing toward Dustin from the same direction were swept away. They fell on their backs and could not get up. A few people attacked Dustin from the back, but he just threw a punch without turning back. The air whooshed past, and the strong gust was like a bomb exploding. The terrifying shockwave sent them all flying away.Bam! Bam! They were thrown on the ground one after another, and they groaned in pain. In just thirty seconds, a bunch of rich prodigies were scattered around the floor. None of them were standing. Some coughed up blood, while
That was Lord Barbenheim’s voice. He saw that the prodigies had lost their will to fight, so he tried to motivate them. When the prodigies listened to him, their expressions shifted. Dustin was really strong, and his power was devastating. None of them could beat him. But the Fox family’s unique technique, The Guide to Slaying a Dragon, was very tempting. Compared to the possible injury in fighting Dustin, The Guide to Slaying a Dragon was more attractive. “You don’t have to injure him. As long as you can just hold him back, distract him, and make him lose focus, I’ll give the guide to you as promised,” Lord Barbenheim said as he tempted them further. When the prodigies heard that, greediness shone in their eyes. If they just needed to hold him back, that was doable. There were so many Martial Saints. Even if they could not defeat Dustin, they might be able to hold him back. Even if he was ridiculously strong, there was still a limit. “Guys, this is not difficult.
None of them could get up. Their faces went pale. They were in pain. They nearly got killed! This was from just a small, casual punch from Dustin. Bam! At that time, Elijah and the Grand Elder of the Lotus Sect attacked from behind. Both of them threw a punch on Dustin’s back. They successfully hit him, and their faces shone with joy. They had actually attacked him successfully! Honestly, they did not hold much hope. They just wanted to make Dustin flustered. In the next moment, their faces suddenly changed. When they hit Dustin’s back, he did not react, but a powerful force of recoil was transmitted instead. Pfft! They vomited blood at the same time, and they were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings.“How could he… be so ridiculously strong?” Elijah’s face was filled with despair when he was thrown into the air. So many people attacked Dustin together from the front and the back, yet they could not hurt him at all. How could this happen? A
“We’re going to die regardless of what we do. Dustin, you didn’t intend to let us live anyway. You’re really ruthless!” roared a prodigy in anger. Dustin remained indifferent. He pointed at the prodigy and killed him. “Did I ask you to do this?” he asked sarcastically. All the prodigies had come here to fight him because of greed. But they were blaming him for being ruthless. Dustin could not care less about fighting these so-called prodigies before. It was entirely their fault for ending up in this situation. “Damn it! Fight!” Another prodigy could not hold himself back and stormed out when he saw his accomplices being killed one after another. His face twisted, and he intended to fight to the death. But he did not attack Dustin directly because that would be no different from committing suicide. He used his last strength to flee toward the window of the council chamber. He wanted to break out of the window and escape. Dustin did not react. He just pointed at the
They destroyed the Fox family twenty years ago, but they had not found all the techniques of the Fox family. They only found The Guide to Slaying a Dragon and the other two manuals.He had helped out a lot, so he was rewarded with a copy of The Guide to Slaying a Dragon. He understood that the true technique of the Fox family was with Dustin. How could he not be agitated? ‘After I take down Dustin Fox, I must force him to tell me about all the techniques of the Fox family before I hand him to the Divine Hall!’ he thought secretly.Roar! The sudden dragon roar snapped him out of his daze. When he raised his head, he saw that the three dragon-shaped pure energies clashed together. Two of them were his pure energy, while another one belonged to Dustin. When two fought one, he should have had the upper hand. However, that was not so. Lord Barbenheim’s two pure energies burst like bubbles, but Dustin’s dragon-shaped pure energy did not stop. It continued blasting forward.“
“Are you sure you want to let me go?” Lord Barbenheim could not believe it. He was not Dustin’s match. Dustin could kill him and avenge the Fox family, but Dustin was sparing him and letting him go to seek help from the Divine Hall.“Get lost when I tell you to. It’s best to call more experts from the Divine Hall, or you’ll die here,” Dustin said indifferently.He wanted Lord Barbenheim to call more people from the Divine Hall.The Divine Hall was mysterious. He captured a Martial King from the Divine Hall a few days ago, but he could not get anything out of him. Even after he was tortured, he still did not reveal any useful information.Dustin did not have the patience for a long interrogation, so he could only start with Lord Barbenheim. “If you let me go, you’ll regret it.” Lord Barbenheim sneered. “Don’t think that I don’t know what’s in your mind. You want to dig out the hidden Divine Hall and seek revenge on them, right? Haha! Naive!“The terror of the Divine Hall is f
“I didn’t expect it. If you did, I would have doubted if you were really Lucas’s son,” said Dustin indifferently. “Dustin, you’re strong. You’re so powerful that I admit I look up to you. But what does it matter?” Elijah sneered. “In this world, strength doesn’t mean everything. Just because you reach a high level with your strength doesn’t mean you’ll always win!”Dustin frowned.What trick did this brat want to play at this point?“Bring her up!” Elijah roared. A while later, a Martial Saint of the Lotus Sect walked as he escorted a woman inside.Dustin glanced at her and frowned.“Madison…”He had not expected that Elijah would capture Madison and use her to threaten him. He did not understand why. Madison knew him, but the two of them were not close at all.How was it useful to threaten him by using her? Did Elijah really think that Dustin was the kind of man who was a slave to his desire? “Dustin, when Lord Barbenheim gathered the prodigies for discussion yester
Dustin was the King of Hades. Throughout his life, countless women had crossed his path and many of them had been stunningly beautiful, yet none had ever stirred any emotions in his heart, except one. Simone… She was the light that broke through the darkest chapter of his life! To lay a hand on Simone Langley was to trigger Dustin’s wrath. Dustin had stationed elite guards from Hell Hall to protect the Langley family and made it nearly impossible for anyone to harm them. Elijah would find no opening to act. Even so, just the mention of her was enough to ignite Dustin’s fury. “Elijah, you must have a death wish!” Dustin growled with an unmistakable killing intent. “Oh? Did I just hit a nerve?” Elijah sneered. He was oblivious to the magnitude of his mistake. “Are you angry? Do you want to kill me now?” he said tauntingly. “But what can you even do? Right now, you’re at my mercy. If I tell you to kneel, you’ll kneel. If I tell you to beg, you’ll beg! Do you have a
The Yeager family members looked at each other at a loss.What the hell was the CEO doing? Everything was so elusive and confusing. They were unhappy, but they dared not show it. While they remained silent, Dustin slowly sipped his red wine, picked up a napkin, and wiped his mouth. “No signing,” he said indifferently. The Yeager family members looked over at him.“What did you say?!” Zack yelled at him with a dark face. Why was he speaking?Did he even have the right to speak? It was an extremely important collaboration. Even if Terry was protecting him, Zack could not care less. Dustin must be out of his mind since he dared to interrupt such an important discussion. “Shut up! This isn’t your place to speak!” Percy shouted. The Yeager family members were furious. They were afraid that Dustin’s reckless words would ruin the deal. “You think just because you say, ‘no signing,’ it’ll be done? Do you think you’re the CEO of Duscia Corporation?!” Damien yelled at him. He
“What’s going on with our great-grandfather? Dustin is not even related to our family. How can he treat him better than us?”A few members of the Yeager family stood on the side awkwardly while watching Dustin and the others chatting happily. Damien whispered in dissatisfaction. They could not bear the sight of this, and they felt very resentful.“Stop talking!” Warren snapped.“Don’t worry, he won’t remain so arrogant for long. Dad favors him. So? In this society, ability speaks louder than anything else,” Zack said in a low voice. “A man who lives off an inheritance without a proper job… even if he has some luck and inheritance, he’ll squander it away in no time. Then, he’ll struggle to get by. Dad will see the truth in time.“Besides, who knows how long Dad can stay conscious? Do you really think that kid can make Dad young again? I don’t believe in such an absurd thing.“Dad is already very old. We should just go along with this for now. They’re lucky they get to hang around
Dustin did not say anything. Terry was smart indeed. Zack and the others were blinded by the lure of great benefits. A while later, some voices were heard. It meant that the guest had arrived. Percy led Adrian inside. “Dad, this is Mr. Adrian Pierce, the general manager of Duscia Corporation. We always communicated with him about the collaboration,” said Warren as an introduction.Terry nodded, and he looked closely at Adrian. “This young man is not someone ordinary.” His eyes gleamed sharply as he recognized Adrian’s extraordinary presence. Different people, depending on their status and identity, carried themselves with different temperaments. When Terry was young, he used to work in Summerdale and meet many upper-class people. Adrian’s temperament was on par with the young heirs of Summerdale. “I’m Adrian Pierce. It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Yeager.” Adrian walked to Terry and bowed respectfully.This shocked the Yeager family. Adrian had such a high status, but he
A day passed in the blink of an eye. In the evening, Dustin and Patricia drove to the Yeager family villa. When they got out of the car and walked to the entrance of the Yeager family villa, they saw Percy waiting at the door. When Percy saw them, he turned livid, and his face darkened. “Uncle Percy,” said Patricia in greeting. “Hmph! So, you still recognize me as your uncle,” said Percy coldly and glared at Patricia. Patricia remained silent. Percy glanced at Dustin. His gaze shone with hatred. Patricia used to be very obedient and never dared to go against the Yeager family members. But lately, she had become so insolent even toward the patriarch of the family. Percy thought that Dustin must have led her astray. “Today, your great-grandfather invited you over for a meal. You’d better behave at the dining table and make him happy,” Percy said. “We will,” Patricia said. “Well, why are you so stubborn then? The Yeager family has agreed to let you return, yet you in
“The Tonra family sent me here to prepare to take over Hattan. We will start from the market in Hattan before we develop the market in the south. The future profits are immensely worthwhile. I’m determined to build a huge business kingdom. “Honestly, these families in Hattan are just so-so. I don’t take them seriously at all. But Duscia Corporation is fine. You just invested a hefty 2 billion right off the bat. That’s quite impressive.” Crispin smiled. “I came from the Southwestern region. I didn’t bring many workers, so we’re lacking some manpower. You’re an expert. Why don’t you work for me? I’ll make it worth your while. How about it?” He confidently offered a job to Dustin and waited for his response. Dustin stared at him calmly. “Regardless of your background, you look quite ambitious to me, but you don’t have sufficient capabilities. Hattan has limited you. If you work for me, your future will be promising!” Adrian found that amusing. Such rich spoiled brats were
Dustin observed what was going on at the front desk on the security feed on his screen. Adrian arrived at the front desk. “Mr. Pierce, you’re here.” The receptionist nodded at Adrian, and Adrian nodded back. Crispin and the driver, Nicholas Olson, assessed Adrian. “What a self-important person the general manager of Duscia Corporation is! How dare you make Mr. Tonra wait downstairs?” Nicholas asked in displeasure. Adrian did not spare the driver a single glance. He could not be bothered to speak with an insignificant staff member. If Dustin had not given him the orders, he would have chased these two out already. “You’re the general manager of Duscia Corporation, Adrian Pierce, yes?” Crispin looked at Adrian contemptuously. “I’ve never heard of the Pierce family having a person with your name. You’re quite capable of fooling the families of Hattan so easily with the same last name.” Thinking that he had dirt on Adrian, Crispin smiled very tauntingly. “What are yo
“I find it all quite interesting. This Duscia Corporation, this fake rich kid… Let’s go take a look.” “Yes, sir.” At around 2 p.m., the Lamborghini stopped at the entrance of Duscia Corporation. The young man walked into the building with his driver. “Hello, sir. How can I help you?” the receptionist asked. “This is the son of the Tonra family of Articora. Have the person in charge of your company come and welcome him,” the driver announced loudly. “Do you have an appointment?” the receptionist asked with a smile. “What?” The young man, Crispin Tonra, immediately frowned. “What kind of receptionist are you? Haven’t you heard of the Tonra family of Articora? Mr. Tonra of the ultra-rich Tonra family doesn’t need an appointment to come to your company. Go and tell your boss about his arrival. Have the person in charge rush over here to welcome Mr. Tonra,” yelled the driver at the receptionist. “I’m sorry. The person in charge of our company is very busy. All guests mu
The great Dhillon family of Hattan was destroyed just like that. It was said that Kendall had become a useless cripple and would have to spend the rest of his days relegated to bed. He could not even move, and there was nothing that could be done to treat him. The other families in Hattan thought that it was the ultra-rich Cabello family of Summerdale that had done this. They were impressed at how powerful the Cabello family was and pitied the Dhillon family. It was true that one could not afford to offend a family like that. After spending a day at the hotel, Dustin took Patricia back to their apartment in the suburbs. The place had been cleaned up and was immaculate. All the damage from the fight had been fixed, and everything looked good as new. Patricia was a strong woman. Thus, she recovered from her ordeal very quickly. She even went to work right after. Dustin went to Duscia Corporation, and Adrian reported to him. “It’s impossible for the Dhillon family to mak
A life like that would be worse than anything. To put it crudely, it would be a luxury for Kendall to be able to kill himself. This was the consequence of daring to hurt Patricia. Dustin went to stand before Patricia and reached out to touch the red veil surrounding her. With a plop, the light burst like a bubble, and Patricia landed on the floor. “Dustin,” Patricia called. She threw herself into Dustin’s embrace. She cried softly as she held onto Dustin tightly. “You’re alright,” Dustin said comfortingly as he patted her on the back. Patricia did not speak. She clung to Dustin without letting go. She had just realized that she could not live without Dustin in her life. Before that moment, she had been so worried about Dustin and wanted him to leave without coming in. It would not have mattered if she had died because of it. She finally understood. She had long accepted Dustin into her heart. After a long time in Dustin’s embrace, Patricia finally cal
