Chapter 658
For a moment, a commotion spread through the crowd. Felix Miller had just prostrated before Dustin, and now Chad Miller followed suit. What was going on? Was this what they called "like father, like son"? Though they didn't exactly know what had happened, anyone could tell that the Charging Tiger gang was in trouble. They were sure the handsome young man possessed considerable influence."I was wrong, Mr. Rhys. It's all my fault. I failed to recognize you, and I underestimated you. Please don't take my wrongdoings to heart. I hope you can find it in you to forgive me," Chad apologized as he slapped himself repeatedly. With each slap, a loud, clear smacking sound echoed, showing just how hard he was slapping himself. In no time, he quickly made up for the remaining 20 to 30 slaps that Dustin had left out. "Please get things right. The person you should be apologizing to isn't me," Dustin said impassively.Chad seemed caught off guard initially, but he quickly caught on and went over
Chapter 659
Felix was frozen with fear when he saw the devilish smile on Dustin's face. Cold sweat broke out all over him. While others might not know how Harry Hall, the previous leader of the Flame Dragon gang, had died, Felix knew very well why. It was precisely this person standing before him who had killed Harry off to take his place. His talk about winning people over with his capabilities? If anything, that was a blatant threat! If Felix didn't comply, he might very well end up just like Harry Hall!"Alright, you may leave now. Till we meet again!" Dustin smiled meaningfully, sending panic through Felix. He knew that he was every part a mortal, just as Harry Hall was. If he really turned Dustin down, he might not live to see the next sunrise. "Mr. Rhys, it would be my honor to join the Flame Dragon gang. If you would have us, I, Felix Miller, will gladly lead all my members in the Charging Tiger gang to devote ourselves to the Flame Dragon gang!" Felix declared, putting on a righteous fr

Edmund quickly greeted Natasha. "Ms. Natasha," Abigail greeted her too.Back when her father used to work for the Harmons, Abigail had her fair share of interactions with Natasha. She found her to be a thoughtful, caring, and gentle person who would occasionally give her gifts. It wasn't until Natasha went to Swinton to further her career that the two rarely met anymore."Abigail, I haven't seen you in two years! You've grown up into such a beautiful young lady!" Natasha praised with a light-hearted chuckle. "You're the beautiful one, Ms. Natasha. There are countless ladies in Millsburg who envy your beauty." Abigail looked at her with admiration. Few could match Natasha's beauty and elegance in the whole of Balerno, much less Millsburg."How sweet." Natasha tapped Abigail's nose adoringly before looking back at the ruins behind them. "It seems like your house has been completely torn down. Why don't you go back with me to the Harmon estate and stay there for a few days? It'd be

"How do you plan to deal with this, Mr. Harmon?" Dustin asked."Since the Dark Lord is drawing near, I'll have to make arrangements in advance. Just to be prepared, I'll spare no expense to hire skilled martial artists to guard the house," Hector declared in all seriousness.Not only was the Dark Lord exceptionally skilled in martial art, but he was also accomplished in the mystic arts. The Harmon family's shadow guards alone were no match for him, so he would need to hire backup. Not only will this strengthen their forces, but it would also minimize potential losses for the Harmons. "Mr. Harmon, the Dark Lord will not act alone. He has many disciples, and each one of them possesses remarkable skills. You will have to consider that too," Dustin reminded."Yes, I'll take note of that. The Harmon family will be under strict security measures for the next few days to prevent any unwanted visitors." Hector nodded."Dad, I remember Grandfather saying that we have a trump card. What is

"Alright, you're the leader of the family. It's your decision." Natasha didn't voice much of her opinion. It was true that they shouldn't play their trump card, Michael Robinson, so easily. The best outcome would be to resolve the crisis and eliminate the Dark Lord of their own means so that not only will they still be in possession of their trump card, but it would also boost the entire family's morale."Mr. Harmon, I'm curious. What grudge the Dark Lord holds against the Harmon family?" Dustin suddenly questioned."Well …" Hector seemed to hesitate for a moment."Mr. Harmon, I asked because I'm curious. If you don't feel like telling me, don't stress about it." Dustin smiled. He knew better than to probe if it involved any of the family's secrets."Dad, there's no harm in spilling the truth. Dustin isn't an outsider," Natasha coaxed. She, too, didn't know much about the grievances between her family and the Dark Lord."Alright then, if you must know, I'll tell you." After some c

"The sole survivor?" Dustin and Natasha exchanged a look of surprise. It was truly astonishing to them that the Dark Lord was also a Harmon! And not only that, but one from the same ancestry! No wonder he knew so many of their secrets. "The three branches stemmed from the same ancestry, but due to the Dark Lord's selfishness, he went so far as to harm his kinsmen. How inhumane!" Natasha slammed her hand on the table out of frustration. She was even more irked after learning about the truth. She could have been more understanding if their current predicament had been caused by some deep grudge between both parties, but to think it was all because of a treasure map? The Dark Lord actually assassinated members of the Harmon family for so many years, all for a mere map? He was extremely deranged!"Men's greed is endless. The temptation of the treasure is immense, and the Dark Lord will never back off till he gets his hands on them," Hector said."One of the three branches has already d

As expected of the number one bombshell on the Beauty Ranking!"Maria Dunham, second disciple of the Invisible Guardians, at your service, Mr. Harmon!""Ivy Dennis, third disciple of the Invisible Guardians, at your service, Mr. Harmon!"The two girls in white also introduced themselves. "Alright, alright. You've all come at the right time. Come have some tea." Hector smiled gently, motioning for Jack to serve the tea and pastries."Mr. Harmon, we heard you're in trouble, so we're here on our master's orders to lend a hand. If you need anything, just let us know. We promise to help you handle it with ease!" Caleus said confidently. "The three of you must be exhausted from such a long journey. Please get some rest first. We can discuss this tomorrow. Oh, by the way, why haven't I seen your master?" Hector asked, changing the subject.Just three disciples from the Invincible Guardians were obviously not enough. It was best if a few elders or even the leader stepped in. "Don't

"Get lost!" Natasha's answer was simple and direct.The smile on Caelus' face froze. He had never thought she wouldn't even try to spare his feelings. After all, he was the senior disciple of the Invincible Guardians and a universally acknowledged martial arts genius. No matter where he went, people kissed the ground he walked on, and no one dared look down on him. But today, of all days, when he tried to ask for someone's hand in marriage, all he received in response was a simple "Get lost!" His reputation was going down the drain."Natasha, don't be rude!" Hector chastised. He then said regretfully, "Caelus, my daughter impulsively spoke out of turn. Please don't take it to heart."Caelus was the senior disciple of the Invincible Guardians, after all. He had to show him some form of respect. "Mr. Harmon, I consider myself a handsome and exceptionally talented man. I don't think it's a tall order to become your son-in-law. Now, I'm sincerely proposing to your daughter, and thi
