"S—so that was a charm after all?"Everyone at the scene was frozen in place as they stared at the red snake that Xavier vomited. One by one, their faces showed looks of disbelief. No one could’ve ever imagined that the esteemed heir of the Horst family, who had a bright and promising future ahead of him, had stooped this low just to court someone."Xavier, I never thought you’d be like this!" Claudia yelled angrily in shock.Who knew that she’d be the one who would be deceived by trusting him too much in the end? She almost became an accomplice in his schemes too!"I—" Xavier was at a loss for words as his face turned pale. The truth was already laid bare for all to see, so even if he still insisted on denying it, his attempts would be absolutely futile. "Hmph, It’s a good thing Dustin has a good eye to see through your evil schemes. Otherwise, Sheila would’ve fallen right into your trap!" Ruth spat, her expression full of contempt.She hated despicable and shameless men li

Even though she said that, she secretly knew that her father would take Xavier’s side out of his great fondness for him.When one was born into a wealthy family, joy wasn’t as much of a significant consideration as the family's interests."Alright. We all know how much Uncle Caden adores you, so he definitely wouldn’t let you suffer," Ruth replied, and she no longer pressed her for answers. "Let’s go back home and take a nice nap, Ruth," Dustin yawned. After retrieving all of his golden needles, he spun around and was about to leave when a voice piped up again. "Running away already?" Xavier taunted, his expression now full of furious rage and his gaze scorching.He immediately pounced on Dustin while he wasn’t paying attention and stabbed him with a knife!"Just die already!" Xavier roared as he pushed the tip of the blade into Dustin’s back. "Behind you!" Ruth and Sheila shrieked in horror. Everyone else at the scene was also stunned by Xavier’s sudden attack. No one expe

"Why don’t you get a better brain in your next life." Dustin spat as he looked at Xavier’s corpse. And with one swift motion, he threw his dead body to the side with one hand, as if it were trash.Xavier's body landed with a "thump" near Claudia and the other's feet.Xavier's face was riddled with fear and disbelief. Even up to his death, he didn’t understand why Dustin dared to make a move on him.Everyone gasped, petrified, as they stared at the corpse beneath their feet. Every single one of them was frozen in place and was at a loss for how to respond to the scenario in front of them.To think that an heir from an affluent family, who was also the pride of an entire city, had his life taken from him just like that?How was this remotely possible?After a brief silence, everyone at the scene erupted into a frenzy of chatter."Are you out of your mind, Dustin?! D—d—did you actually just kill Xavier?" Claudia shouted with a face full of shock, looking at Dustin as if he were a m

After sending Ruth home, Dustin returned to the Peaceful Medical Center.However, he couldn’t help but frown the moment he opened the doors to the building. The place looked as if it had been ransacked. It was a mess.Boxes of medicine were scattered all over the place, and Dahlia, who had been rushing here and there the whole time, had on a face that was drenched in sweat."Diarhica. Where did he put the Diarhica?" Dahlia mumbled to herself with a prescription in hand. After looking around for a while, she finally saw a box of Diarhica that had been stored in a medicine cabinet high above the ground. Since it was out of her reach, she could only retrieve it by stepping on a stool."What are you doing?" Dustin asked coldly.Dahlia was startled by his question and lost her balance on the stool. Seeing as she was about to fall to the ground, Dustin instinctively grabbed hold of her before that could happen.It felt as if he was carrying something precious in his arms, as a nice s

At Fallridge Haven. "Father! Please help Dustin; otherwise, he'll die!" Sheila begged on her knees."Hmph! You have the audacity to request assistance for him?! He is responsible for Xavier's death! That is the gravest of offenses! The Horst army has already assembled all of Swinton's finest warriors! No one can save him now!" Caden spoke with a frigid tone."Father! Dustin has rescued me on numerous occasions. Please help him, for my sake!" Sheila pleaded, tears streaming down her face.Ever since she returned to Fallridge Haven, she hadn't stopped begging his father for his help. That was because only her father could go against the Horst army."It is exactly because he's saved you that I refrained from taking his life!" Caden retorted coldly."Father! I will do whatever you say, as long as you save Dustin!" Sheila begged on all fours.Soon, her knees started to bruise."You fool! You have no idea what you're doing!"Caden slammed the table as he stood up. "Do you want me t

"That fellow really dared to come? He really doesn't treasure his life!""Your bravery is commendable. But showing up here is a foolish move!"The crowd erupted into an uproar, with a variety of expressions on their faces."Dustin Rhys is it?!" A guard from the Horst family took a step forward, his voice booming with authority."That's me," Dustin replied, unfazed."So, you're the one who killed my son, Xavier?" Gabriel's fierce gaze remained fixed on Dustin, his expression stern and unyielding."Yes." Dustin nodded once again."Kneel down!" Gabriel roared."Kneel? You're not worthy of such respect." Dustin retorted.Dustin added, "Horst, I'll give you a chance. Hand over the people who trespassed at Peaceful Medical Center and apologize to Gregory. Then, I'll spare your life."The crowd went wild at his statement."Holy shit! Is he out of his mind? He's still acting so brazen even when his life is at stake?""Having killed Xavier, he dares to demand an apology from Sir Gab

Ten minutes later.The entire Horst Dojo was filled with pained groans.Dustin stood amidst the crowd, emanating a presence akin to that of a god or demon. His presence was awe-inspiring, commanding, and intimidating.A few people in the audience were stunned. They stared with widened eyes as if they saw a ghost.Everyone was taken aback by Dustin's strength. Single-handedly, he had managed to sweep through the entire Horst dojo!It should be noted that these warriors were the elite of the dojo, capable of facing ten opponents alone.Yet, in the span of a few minutes, all of them were taken down. This was too absurd!"Fuck! He's that strong? He's on an entirely different level!""My goodness, where did this demon come from?!"Nigel and the others were stunned speechless, especially a few girls who covered their mouths in shock.Dustin alone faced off against a hundred soldiers, slaughtering people from all directions.It was truly unbelievable!"The Horst dojo is nothing."

"Smack!"When the last slap fell, Gabriel was completely disfigured, with a crooked nose, a twisted mouth, and half of his teeth falling out, looking extremely miserable. He collapsed on the ground, completely powerless. He never expected Dustin to be so strong, to the point where he couldn't even fight back throughout the whole fight. He could only passively take the beating without any resistance. With this kind of strength, Dustin might even well be in the top three of the Hundred Immortals."D—did I see it right? Sir Gabriel was actually defeated? And so miserably?" "Who is this guy? What kind of monster is he?" After a long silence in the martial arts gym, there was finally some sound. However, no one responded because the facts were already laid out in front of them. Gabriel had indeed lost and was completely crushed throughout the entire fight. The so-called top ten of the Hundred Immortals and his so-called "Eclipse Strike", his "ultimate" move, had become a joke

"Uh..."Looking at the head rolling on the ground prompted a brief silence from those in the martial arts gym, followed by the commotion and screams. No one expected that Gabriel would choose to commit suicide so decisively and ferociously.With one sword, he cut off his own head.Has he lost his mind!?"What did you do to Sir Gabriel?!" Nigel was sweating with fear."You want to find out? Go ask him yourself." Ignoring the shocked expressions of everyone, Dustin turned around and left the gym.As soon as he left, a fully armed team immediately rushed in and sealed off the scene. Everyone involved was arrested. He didn't care to worry about what happened next.With Sergeant Spanner's power, there would naturally be no loopholes in handling this small matter....On the other side, at Fallridge Haven."What? Dustin didn't die?! How could this happen? Gabriel is in the top ten on the Hundred Immortals, and he brought so many elite members of the Horst family to help him out

When Dustin returned to Peaceful Medical Center, everything that had been smashed and damaged had been cleaned up.The whole clinic was like new again.Dahlia was sleeping on the table, leaning on it with a slightly haggard look on her beautiful face and eyebrows slightly furrowed.Looking at her, Dustin felt a complicated mix of emotions and couldn't help but feel grateful. After all, she had saved Gregory's life. He took off his coat and draped it over Dahlia."Mmm?"Dahlia trembled all over and instantly woke up. "You're back? Are you hurt?""I'm fine, thank you for today," Dustin said politely."Don't mention it; it's only right for me to take care of Mr. Jones when he's injured," Dahlia said, pursing her lips."Have you eaten? Are you hungry?""A little.""You want your usual, spaghetti bolognese?""Mmm, thank you.""Wait a moment." Without much ado, Dustin walked into the kitchen and began to skillfully cook the dish. In the three years of their marriage, whenever
