An Understated Dominance Chapter 1473
"Turn around? What? Are you able to change things up?" Ezra sniggered condescendingly. He turned around to have a look.All he saw was how great business was for them at Rejuvenaid Pharmaceuticals. Customers were swarming in, and almost everyone in the elite circle of South City had come to show their support. Besides that, there was nothing out of the ordinary."Dustin, I think you're too old for such childish gimmicks. Does such jokes humor you?" Ezra mocked."Hey! Are you just too much of a coward to admit defeat?" Eleanor asked sarcastically. "We have witnesses, evidence, and the signed agreement! There's no point saying more. Just surrender the formula already! It'd be less embarrassing for you that way.""Who said that we've lost? See for yourself, what's that over there?" Dustin gestured in a direction down the road."Hah! Do you think I'd fall for the same trick again?" Ezra huffed without looking back.Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. Ezra wasn

Ezra and Eleanor didn't expect so many wealthy people to support Camron Medicals' launch.They began to grow anxious. If this were to carry on, they were beginning to doubt whether they would win."Gentlemen, thank you for showing up and giving us your support. Please, head on in." Lana and Matteo beamed from ear to ear as they welcomed the guests and invited them in for a seat.The Welch and Swanson families dominated the market in South City. With just the Camrons' abilities alone, they would not have been able to get much support. But now that they had help from the Dawson family, many of the wealthy merchants from Easy City turned up to support them. Had it not been for the Dawsons, Camron Medicals would have lost terribly."I never expected you to be prepared for this, Mr. Dawson. I guess now we can have a proper fight against the Welch and Swanson families!" Lana smiled brightly."These are all Dustin's arrangements. I'm only doing things according to his plan." Bo twirled
An Understated Dominance Chapter 1475
Those from the Welch and Swanson families could no longer stay calm. They had planned and schemed for so long but never expected that the Langford family, the head of the eight great families, would support the Camrons.There was a stark difference between the Langford family's and the Welch and Swanson families' statuses. They were not even on the same level! Was it possible that the Camron family actually had the Langfords backing them?"H-How is this possible? Why would the leader of the Langford family show up here?" Eleanor's eyes widened in disbelief.That was Ethan, the leader of the Langford family! He was a powerful and formidable minister of the imperial court. Known to be haughty, he never formed alliances with others.Even if Eleanor's parents invited Ethan, he wouldn't even show up! He wouldn't even care for people like Bo and Dustin. So, who exactly managed to get Ethan to turn up in person?"Things just turned bad for us!" Ezra broke out in a cold sweat, fluster

With everyone's gaze fixed on them, the convoy of luxury cars slowly made their way to the opposite side of the road. Finally, they stopped right at the front of Rejuvenaid Pharmaceuticals.Eleanor was elated at the sight of that. "Haha! They're here for us! Our backup is finally here!""Yes! It's time we show them what we're capable of!" Ezra was also overjoyed.Though Ethan's presence had changed things for them, they were fully prepared to reverse the tides."Who could it be?" Alistair mumbled as he rubbed his chin. Anticipation was evident in his eyes.Most of the Welch and Swanson families' allies were already there. Could there be a surprise in store for them?"Dustin! Lana! Bo!" Eleanor called them out one by one haughtily, "I told you, don't be happy too soon!"What do you think now? Not so happy anymore, are we?""I admit that you're quite a worthy opponent. Unfortunately, we're just much better than you!" Ezra said proudly.As Ezra and Eleanor taunted their opponents
An Understated Dominance Chapter 1477
At that moment, not only Eleanor but everyone from the Welch and Swanson families were shocked.Never in their dreams had they expected things to turn out this way.They had a chance at winning the bet had it just been the Langfords. But now, there were even two ancient houses involved. No matter their tricks or abilities, they were all rendered useless.After all, there was a stark difference between wealthy families and ancient houses. They were on entirely different levels! Wealthy families were just rich. But ancient houses wielded power and influence! The rich were nothing compared to the powerful and influential.It would not be an exaggeration to say that ancient houses could wipe out any wealthy family within a night if they wished. That was how different the wealthy families and ancient houses were."The Langfords, the Fallons, and the Ballards … How could this be? What on earth has happened?" Ezra gaped in terror.He simply could not comprehend how an insignificant co

The company was closed even before the Welch and Swanson families could profit from it. In addition to having a warehouse full of the ointment, the money invested had also gone down the drain because they couldn't sell it.Suddenly, the Welch and Swanson families were in deep waters. On the other hand, the Camron family was in a completely different situation. They had just joined the elite social rank right away because of the support shown by the two ancient houses.Not only were they making money, but they had towered above the most influential families in the city in terms of networking. If this continued, they'd finally be able to join the rank of influential families within three months! By that time, Oakvale would have nine great families!…It was nighttime in the Welch family meeting room. Alistair, the leader of the Welch family, and Barry Swanson, the leader of the Swanson family, were in a discussion. Only a few other core members, like Eleanor and Ezra, were al

"That's enough. There's no point in discussing all these now. Let's redirect our focus on finding a way out of the current situation." Joanne, who had remained silent all this while, suddenly spoke up. She was decisive, swift, and wouldn't give up easily. She would find ways to regain their losses."Obviously, we can no longer sell Rejuvenaid as two ancient houses have spoken." Barry sighed as he looked up and said, "Alistair, you are always full of ideas. "Do you have any ideas how we can recoup some of our losses?""This is too little time for me to think of anything." Alistair looked helpless. If he had any ideas, he wouldn't be worrying right now."Dad! I might have an idea!" Eleanor suddenly had a thought and spoke up."Really? What is it? Tell me." Alistair was immediately intrigued. Everyone else turned to look at her and was ready to listen to her idea."Dad, we got the formula for Rejuvenaid from Dustin. Do you think he may have other similar formulas?" Eleanor said a

Dustin, Lana, Bo, and others gathered around the table to drink and chit-chat.Their new company had just launched, and they had already profited quite a lot. It was the perfect end to their day. They decided to celebrate their success at the Regal Court after a busy day."Hahaha, what an amazing day! That bitch couple, Ezra and Eleanor, finally failed for once! I can't help but laugh whenever I remember their faces when they lost." Bo laughed loudly with his glass raised.He always disliked Eleanor and Ezra. They even went to threaten his sister at her place a few days ago. He finally got his revenge today."This is all thanks to Mr. Dawson's social network. You managed to invite the Fallon family and the Ballard family today. If not, we wouldn't be this successful!" Lana raised her glass with a smile."Hold on …" Bo was taken aback and frantically said, "I thought the Camrons invited the ancient houses? How is the Dawson family involved?""What?" Lana's face froze. "Mr. Dawson,

Poseidon scoffed. "You're so full of yourself." The surrounding seawater surged violently. It transformed into countless razor-sharp water spikes and whistled toward Dustin. The deadly edges glinted under the sunlight. Like a silver rainstorm, the barrage swallowed every inch of space around him.Dustin's sharp gaze locked onto the incoming strikes. With a light swing of the Celestial Blade, a streak of black sword aura shot out. Every water spike in its path shattered into mist and rained down in a cascade of droplets.However, Poseidon refused to relent. His attacks came in endless waves, an unbroken torrent.He gripped his trident with both hands and spun it, creating several blue energy rings. Each one expanded rapidly and surged toward Dustin like crashing waves.Dustin's figure flickered and vanished from his spot. The next second, he reappeared just outside the energy rings.Hovering in midair, he spun at incredible speed. The Celestial Blade in his hand turned into a b

"Logan, I have to admit that you're stronger than I thought. I never expected you'd push me this far," Poseidon said.His arms slowly spread wide, and his blue eyes glowed with murderous intent. "As a mark of respect, I will give it everything I've got. You'll witness the true extent of my power."With a flick of his hand, he made a grabbing gesture. His trident, which had fallen to the bottom of the sea, shot back up through the water and landed firmly in his grasp.Compared to his earlier arrogance, Poseidon now stood with a newfound seriousness. It wasn't just Dustin's strength that had him on edge but his terrifying potential.At only 20, Dustin already possessed this level of strength. If he continued to grow, he would become a serious threat to the Hall of Gods. Hence, Poseidon resolved to eliminate him today."Watch closely," he said.Poseidon slowly raised his trident and gripped it like a javelin. While channeling his energy into the weapon, it pulsed with an intense blu

Dustin was Dragonmarsh's elite prodigy, while Poseidon was the famous royal god of the Hall of Gods.Every move they exchanged unleashed destructive power. Within moments, the area within a 300-foot radius was reduced to wreckage.Dustin wielded his true energy-infused longsword. Each swing unleashed a blinding flare of light as if it could split the sky apart with the Celestial Blade.On the contrary, Poseidon's trident commanded the winds and rains. Each strike could summon huge rolling waves as if he were a god reigning over the forces of nature.Sword aura clashed against walls of water and plunged the entire area into chaos.Warrick and the others watched with rapt attention. Their eyes were locked on the battle ahead as they tried to make sense of the chaos.But Dustin and Poseidon were moving so fast that their actions were almost impossible to follow. Their movements blurred together, and they could only catch flashes of two figures constantly clashing. Their strikes ca

"Let me correct you," Dustin said.As his hand slowly tightened into a fist, a white longsword formed from his true energy. "In Dragonmarsh, there is no 'God. ' We only have the Lord of the Dead."The moment the words left his mouth, a tempest of sword aura exploded outward. Within a radius of several dozen yards, the winds howled, sand and stones were sent flying, and the waves along the shore grew even more violent."Such overwhelming pressure. That sword aura is insane. Is this Logan's actual strength?"Feeling the surge of energy, Warrick and the others couldn't help but turn pale. It was then they realized that Dustin hadn't been fighting seriously before. Or perhaps, with their strength, they hadn't even earned the right to make him fight for real. They figured only someone of Poseidon's caliber could force Dustin to go all out."Interesting… truly fascinating." Poseidon suddenly laughed. "I thought you were just a pup, but it turns out you're a hungry wolf. Now, this is s

Poseidon hovered in the air with his trident in one hand and radiated a commanding presence. He stood like a god, and his figure was so intimidating that it struck fear into those who beheld him.With a wave of his hand, an invisible energy struck Warrick and expelled the three silver needles from his body. Feeling sensation returned to his limbs, Warrick's face lit up. He quickly rose to his feet and clenched his fist to his chest in salute."Thank you, Lord Poseidon, for saving me. I will never forget this kindness!" he said."No need for formalities, Sir Prescott. Now that you've pledged yourself to the Hall of Gods, it's only natural that I ensure your safety," Poseidon replied with a faint smile as he descended gracefully."Your timely arrival was a blessing," Warrick said as he bowed his head slightly in deference. "Otherwise, we would have perished tonight."The Hall of Gods' royal gods were figures he could only look up to. Everything about Poseidon, from his power to hi

Mulder knew Warrick had been on the battlefield for years, and his physical strength was unmatched. On top of that, he was already halfway to becoming an ultimate grandmaster. Even if Warrick couldn't defeat the prodigious Logan, Mulder figured the difference wouldn't be too big. But he never expected Logan to take down Warrick with a single finger, leaving him severely injured and unable to stand. The difference in their strength was far beyond anything Mulder could have imagined.In other words, Logan had been toying with them from the start and didn't take the fight seriously. If he had, they would've all been dead.Warrick clutched his chest and coughed up blood as he staggered to his feet. His chest was a charred ruin, the flesh torn open and slick with blood. It was an awful, gory mess."I didn't expect you to be this strong. I underestimated you," he growled.He slowly raised his head, and his face twisted with a menacing look. "Guess I was just unlucky to fall into your

"Oh? You guessed it?" Dustin smirked. "Now that you know who I am, it's up to you to decide what to do."If Warrick chose to surrender, Dustin would simply seal his pressure points and leave him to Austin's judgment. But if he resisted, Dustin wouldn't hesitate to cripple him."Haven't you given up your title as the prince? Why did you return? Are you going to compete with Austin for the throne?" Warrick asked.Uncertainty flickered across his face before he continued, "If that's your intention, I can help you. Spare me today, and I guarantee you'll become the next Prince of West Lucozia."Power was a tempting beast. History was filled with stories of brothers turning against each other and fathers murdering their sons for it.In Warrick's mind, Logan's quiet return to West Lucozia meant one thing—he was after the throne."Guarantee?" Dustin scoffed. "What guarantee are you offering?" His voice was dripping with disdain. "You're a cornered rat now. You're barely holding on to you

"Warrick's blade technique is terrifying," Mulder mumbled. "This should be the finishing blow, right?"Watching from a distance, he was awestruck by the dazzling blade aura. Only now did he truly grasp the sheer gulf between Warrick and Dustin.Warrick's strike descended with such overwhelming force that it seemed to split the earth and obliterate everything in its path. Even from 300 feet away, the pressure rolling off it sent a chill down Mulder's spine.Under Mulder's stunned gaze, Warrick brought his full weight down, with blade and body merging into a single force that swallowed Dustin whole.The instant they clashed, an incandescent explosion of light erupted. It was so blinding that Mulder couldn't even open his eyes.A split second later, a deafening blast erupted, and a shockwave shot outward like a tidal surge. The force flattened the waves and overturned several fishing boats docked at the pier.Even Mulder, more than 300 feet away, was caught in the blast and tumbled

"So what if I am? And what if I push even further?" Dustin's smile slowly faded. "If you don't like it, do something about it."There was no reasoning with tyrants like Warrick."Punk, are you really willing to risk your life against me? Have you ever considered what happens if you lose?" Warrick's face turned grim as a wave of killing intent spread from him.He had already taken a step back to avoid unnecessary trouble. If Dustin refused to back down, there was no choice but to fight."Cut the crap. You wanna fight, fight." Dustin didn't bother with more words. With a flick of his wrist, a silver needle shot out and aimed toward Warrick's forehead—silent, unassuming, but deadly."Hmm?" Warrick's brow furrowed as he instinctively raised his arm. Sparks flew as the needle deflected off his arm and buried into the ground."Oh? You've mastered the Adamantine Body Technique?" Dustin narrowed his eyes. At that instant, he saw through Warrick's technique. Not only was he halfway
