Lord Barbenheim felt as though his heart would shatter. He never could have imagined that Dustin possessed so many astonishing identities. Each title was unmatched in its respective domain and commanded the respect of countless people. His initial reaction was shock and disbelief. Dustin was only in his early twenties… At such a young age, how could he have amassed the experience and endured the struggles for power and survival necessary to attain such positions? Surely, these roles were not so easy to claim! But as he reflected on it further, memories of Dustin’s enigmatic presence surfaced in his mind. His extraordinary talents and the unexpected treatment he had received from the Dragon Supreme himself were enough to place him as an equal… Lord Barbenheim could not help but tremble. Fear overwhelmed him. Who was this man? “Take me away!” he ordered his guards in a panicked voice. The two men immediately pushed his wheelchair and rushed toward the i
He exuded a commanding presence without even trying as if he was born to stand above everyone else. When his cold gaze landed on Lord Barbenheim, it made him freeze in fear. At that moment, Lord Barbenheim did not care about anything else. Using all his strength, he fell out of his wheelchair and knelt before the young man. “I, Titus Williams, also known as Lord Barbenheim, report to Your Majesty!” he shouted respectfully. He was the king. He was the most powerful person in Lovellia. Back in Grayvale, Lord Barbenheim had not cared much about the authority of the Golden Hall in Central Harbor since he was far away. A few years ago, when the new king took the throne, many lords plotted against him. They pretended to obey him but secretly defied his rule. But this king was not one to be underestimated. In just a few years, he had crushed the rebellions and brought peace to Lovellia. “Lord Barbenheim, what is it that you need from me?” the young king asked calmly from his t
Thud! Lord Barbenheim collapsed to the floor. He thought that by putting everything on the line, he would finally find someone to punish Dustin. But he had never imagined that the mighty King of Lovellia was as close as a brother to Dustin! All his confidence was crushed and was replaced by a growing sense of despair. It was a complicated feeling he had never experienced before. The Divine Hall refused to help, and it was likely the king would not either. Lord Barbenheim did not know what to do anymore. He could only leave his fate to chance. “Your Majesty, if I offer everything the Williams family has, can you protect me from being killed?” Lord Barbenheim asked while looking at the king on the screen. The Williams family’s lands and military power still carried some weight. He decided to try one last gamble. After all, the royal family had always been ruthless. They valued power above all else. He did not even hope that the king would agree to punish Dustin. He
“At that point, the Divine Hall posted a message on the global black market to invite powerful forces to join them. Many groups got involved, but only a few ever interacted directly with the Blood God Messenger. “The ones who did were either influential leaders or incredibly strong martial artists, usually at the Martial King level. “To get their hands on the Fox family’s ultimate techniques and treasures, countless forces attacked the Fox family one night. But the Fox family was unbelievably strong. Their patriarch, Jonah Fox, was a true master. He even managed to kill two Transcendent Martial Kings on his own. “But when the Blood God Messenger arrived, everything changed. He was too powerful. Jonah, despite his strength, was seriously injured in just one move and couldn’t fight anymore. “The Blood God Messenger also defeated the other elite fighters in the Fox family, and the other forces started a massacre. The invading groups ransacked the villa, but in the end, they couldn
“Tristan Reed.” Dustin read the name aloud. He vaguely remembered it. When he had killed Gary, the latter had told him to go to Hattan and find a person named Tristan Reed if he wanted to uncover the truth. Dustin later had someone investigate it, and they might have found something. However, Drake had been looking into many different things. He had a large pile of reports to go through, which he had not finished yet. When it came to the Fox family, Dustin did not want to miss any details, so he decided to handle it himself instead of letting Drake or others summarize it. Drake had mentioned that Tristan was a martial elite from Hattan. He was powerful and highly respected. “Tristan was the one who cut off the Fox family patriarch’s head!” Lord Barbenheim immediately said when he saw Dustin focus on the name. Dustin froze, and his eyes filled with intense murderous intent. So, this was the person who had killed his father. Tristan Reed… He had finally found him.
“What you’ve told me can only spare you from physical suffering. Otherwise, I would have skinned you alive and torn your tendons!” Lord Barbenheim’s face grew darker, but he did not give up and tried to make one last plea. “Spare me, and I’ll do anything! I can help you contact those involved and help you kill them all!” Dustin shook his head. “Do you think I need your help?” he asked in disdain. Lord Barbenheim fell silent. He did not know how to respond. What kind of standing did Dustin have? He was the Ultimate Death God from the Asura Hall, the Master of the Martial League, the Master of Star Tower, the Medical Sage, the King of Hades, and the War God. With a single command, many powerful people would risk their lives to help him. A fallen lord like Lord Barbenheim was of no use to him. “Dustin, don’t be so arrogant! The Divine Hall is too powerful for you to take on! If you keep going like this, you’ll end up with a tragic fate! “I know some secrets about the
A long convoy entered Grayvale. It belonged to the Lotus Sect. Dustin had not given any orders to the Lotus Sect when he left the mountain with Tyler. After asking around, Humbert found out where Dustin was going. The information came from the Dragon Supreme. “He is probably heading to the Barbenheim Institution,” Joseph said with a meaningful look. The news shocked the higher-ups of the Lotus Sect. They could not believe it. Dustin had just killed many people within the Lotus Sect, and without a rest, he was going to the Barbenheim Institution. However, the Barbenheim Institution was different from the Lotus Sect. It was heavily protected by Lord Barbenheim’s personal army. Besides, Lord Barbenheim could call in the Western Forces from outside the city using his royal seal. No matter how strong Dustin was, he could not take on so many people alone. These were modern elite soldiers with powerful weaponry. No one, even a Transcendent Martial King, could survive agai
“He’s strong, but there’s no way he could take on five thousand well-armed soldiers of the personal army, let alone wipe them all out,” Humbert said seriously. “There must have been another force behind this.” Everyone went silent. The idea of a power that could wipe out such a huge army in such a short time was terrifying. Their new master was clearly extraordinary. It was no wonder he had not asked the Lotus Sect for any reinforcements. They kept moving forward. Inside the institution, everything seemed calm. There were not many casualties. They only found one body up ahead. The Lotus Sect members quickly went to examine it. “This emblem… it looks like it belongs to an assassin from Death Hall.” Everyone’s expression changed. Humbert looked at the mask on the assassin’s face, and his eyes widened. “It’s the number one assassin from Death Hall, Johan Todd!” “What?! The one who killed a Transcendent Martial King?!” Everyone was shocked. “There’s no sign of a fight
No matter how much Elijah cursed, Dustin did not react at all. “You fools! Don’t you know who the true heir of the Wyatt family is? How can you bow to this thief? Have you forgotten your promises?” Elijah said to remind the Lotus Sect of their loyalty. “There is only one master of the Lotus Sect, and that is Master Fox!” Humbert said firmly. “The Lotus Sect only has one master!” the higher-ups said. Elijah was shocked. When did these people start respecting Dustin so much? He had never been given this kind of respect when he was the master. What had Dustin done to earn this? Angry and desperate, Elijah tried to curse again, but they forced a pill into his mouth. Dustin looked at the seven exhausted women on the floor with a cold face. “Bring him ten more,” he ordered. The Lotus Sect was ready for this. Soon, more women were brought in while those on the floor were carried out. The pill started to take effect on Elijah. He suddenly jumped up and was full of ene
Dustin returned to the Lotus Sect with its members. Joseph stood on the mountain and calmly watched the large group enter the sect. Jonathan stood beside him respectfully. “Is Lord Barbenheim dead?” Joseph asked. “Yes, he’s dead. His personal army was wiped out!” Joseph’s expression slightly changed when he heard this. “Dustin must have a powerful status. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so reckless. The silence from Central Harbor proves it,” Joseph said. He was certain of this. “What a shame! If only we could use him for the McCall family.” Joseph sighed. He had tried everything but ended up losing everything. Eventually, he realized that Dustin was someone he could not control. “What should we do next, Joseph?” Jonathan asked carefully. “Do nothing. It will only make things worse,” Joseph said softly. “The thing that happened between him and Allison… we can’t get rid of him. In the future, we just need to stay on good terms with him. As for Madison, their relations
