An Understated Dominance Chapter 1550
As if it was a fairy tail, Natasha turned out to be the granddaughter of the Duke of Lachshire. Her newfound identity commanded respect, as Natasha effortlessly overshadowed Lana. For a moment, Lana couldn't shake the feeling of inferiority. However, realizing that such an outstanding woman had chosen Dustin, Lana felt reassured in her judgment."Honestly, it caught me off guard because I didn't know she was the Duke of Lachshire's granddaughter when I first met her," Dustin shrugged."So, you lucked out big time?" Lana teased."Something along those lines." Dustin chuckled without explicitly confirming or denying it."Cheers to you two and a whole life of happiness!" Lana raised her beer, clinked it with Dustin's, and then downed it in one go. The two continued their conversation over drinks, feeling even more at ease without the complexities of a romantic relationship.Lana had tucked away her feelings for Dustin deep in her heart. In the grand scheme of life, regrets were i

"Ms. Camron, don't move a muscle. You should be careful; bullets don't care who they hit." A chilling voice came from behind Lana.Lana turned around to the ominous sight of a gun barrel and a menacing face."Who are you? You think you can just waltz in here and stir up trouble in the Camron family?" Lana demanded, her tone firm."Ms. Camron, no need to get all riled up. We're just following orders," the gunman replied with indifference."Orders? Whose orders?" Lana pressed."Clearly, they're my orders."At that moment, a slim man in a suit, wearing a stern expression, entered the meeting room. It was Scott from the Mosey family."You?" Seeing Scott, Lana's expression shifted immediately. She had just escaped from the trouble at the slums. She didn't expect Scott to track her down so quickly."Ms. Camron, we will meet again." Scott grinned as he approached, lifting Lana's chin with his finger. "Quite the looker. I can't help but be a little intrigued.""Mr. Mosey, we haven't

Despite his smile, Scott looked far from trustworthy."What does Mr. Mosey want me to do?" Lana suddenly felt uneasy."Simple. Tomorrow, find an excuse to invite Dustin for dinner. Slip this bottle of Tranqurin into his drink. "Once it kicks in, you can bail, and I'll handle the rest," Scott explained, putting a black medicine bottle on the table containing Tranqurin. It was a drug designed to take down martial artist masters."Mr. Mosey, please think this through. Is it necessary to go this far?" Lana's face soured.Anyone could figure out what Scott was scheming. If she drugged Dustin, she'd be part of the scheme."Far?" Scott Mosey laughed, a mocking grin on his face. "Ms. Camron, this is just the tip of the iceberg. I made many other more ruthless plans; interested to hear them? "Like bankrupting your Camron family or framing you all and tossing you into prison. How about that?""Mr. Mosey, you're pushing it! Oakvale isn't a lawless place!" Lana was growing furious.
An Understated Dominance Chapter 1553
The Camron family instantly panicked as soon as Scott said those words. They had done nothing wrong but found themselves victims of this mess."Mr. Mosey! Mr. Mosey, please have mercy!" Corey pleaded, dropping to his knees in fear. "The Camron family has always followed the law. You can't just harm innocent lives!""Mr. Mosey! You're a person of great standing. Please spare us!" The Camron family members panicked and pleaded.However, Scott remained unmoved. He casually remarked, "Your pleas won't work on me. If you want mercy, ask Ms. Camron. Your fate rests in her hands.""Lana! What are you waiting for? Just agree!" Corey shouted in desperation, "Are you going to stand there and watch your loved ones die?""Uncle Corey! Dustin saved my life; I can't betray him!" Lana frowned deeply."Oh, screw that!" Corey erupted, "Our survival is more important! Dustin's life can't compare to the lives of your entire family!""Uncle Corey, our family is not insignificant. I refuse to believ

Another gunshot shattered the room, and another member of the Camron family fell to the ground.There was a growing pool of blood marking the tragic scene. The meeting hall exploded in shock, cries, and pleas for mercy. It became a chaotic mix of sobs, shouts, and desperate appeals."You heartless monster! I'll take you down!"Lana's eyes blazed with anger as she seized a knife from the floor and charged forward. Yet, Scott's bodyguards ruthlessly kicked her back down before she could rise."Ms. Camron, it seems these ordinary family members don't hold much weight for you compared to Dustin," remarked Scott, clapping his hands. Soon, two burly bodyguards dragged in a middle-aged man. It was Matteo, Lana's father."Dad!" Lana's expression instantly shifted when she was her father; fear etched all over her face. She didn't expect her father to be held hostage. It was a distressing turn of events."Ms. Camron, I'll give you credit for bravery, but if it comes down to choosing be

After a night without sleep, Lana reluctantly called Dustin. Then, she invited him for lunch at her place. Dustin, unsuspecting, agreed without hesitation. After ending the call, Lana slumped into a chair, her face pale and eyes lifeless. Her worn-out appearance was proof of her sleepless night."Lana, how'd it go? Did you get a hold of Dustin?" Matteo walked into the room.She didn't say a word and simply nodded. Matteo couldn't help but sigh as he observed Lana's depressed expression. He reassured her, "Lana, I understand you're upset, but we're out of options."We can't afford to mess with Scott. With the Moseys behind him, we can't risk crossing him. Many members of the Camron family are already in his hands. If we resist, they will end up dead."So, this time, we've got no choice but to play the bad guys." By the end of his speech, Matteo's expression darkened. He had a favorable view of Dustin—young, talented, and brimming with potential. Little did he expect Dustin to
An Understated Dominance Chapter 1556
Lana, who was feeling gloomy and distracted, only snapped back to attention when Matteo nudged her arm. She forced a smile, saying, "Dustin, I've got some food and drinks ready. Please, come in.""Thank you," Dustin replied with a smile.As they entered, the three exchanged pleasantries. The Camron family seemed unusually calm today, and few people were in the vast estate. They chatted as they walked to the dining room.Soon, a spread of mouth-watering dishes was brought to the table."Ms. Camron, you didn't just invite me for a meal, did you? Is there something on your mind?" Dustin inquired."I ..." Lana hesitated, momentarily lost for words. She had been in a daze the entire day. She didn't plan what she was going to say.Fortunately, Matteo swiftly intervened, deflecting the situation. "Dustin, can't I invite you for a meal without any hidden agenda? "Your Dew Balm has done us a great favor, opening the door for us to rise in status. Naturally, we want to express our grat

The crisp sound of Dustin's glass hitting the ground echoed through the room. Its contents spilled to the ground.Lana stood there, perplexed and uncertain; her actions were instinctive and beyond her control.Even Lana couldn't understand why she impulsively reacted as Dustin was about to take a sip. At that moment, Lana and Matteo went pale, with beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.The very scenario Matteo dreaded had now become a reality. Initially, he could have secured his family's safety by sacrificing Dustin. However, his daughter's actions ruined the entire plan.It would spell disaster for the Camron family if Scott knew about it!"Ms. Camron, what was that about? The drink is spiked?" Dustin raised an eyebrow, puzzled.Lana swallowed hard. After a few seconds of contemplation, as if reaching a resolute decision, she urgently said, "Dustin, today is a setup. Someone spiked your drink; they intended to harm you. You need to leave now!"With that, she grabbed Dust

After dealing with the Hall of Gods' elite fighters, Arion disappeared in a blur. When he reappeared, he was hovering above the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit.The scene at the entrance to the forbidden ground was one of utter carnage. Bodies lay strewn across the ground, and rivers of blood flowed freely. All members of the Hall of Gods, including Hank, lay motionless on the ground.Dustin and Willard, both covered in blood and exuding killing intent, had fought fiercely. After a long, grueling fight, they succeeded in defending the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit. They had thwarted the Hall of Gods' plan to destroy the Dracan force.At that instant, Dustin seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up. Through the mist and darkness, he pinpointed Arion's figure hovering above. Arion smiled faintly and nodded at Dustin before disappearing again.Crossing several mountains in mere seconds, Arion arrived above the Sacred Wrym Summit's grand hall. Below, the discipl

When the dust finally settled, Arion was the only one left standing.Bailey, Willem, Anthony, Batuul, the three elite assassins from Eskus, and several gods from the Hall of Gods were either dead or gravely injured.Willem's body had been blasted into countless pieces. Each fragment wriggled on the ground as it struggled to piece together. Batuul fared even worse. He was utterly obliterated, leaving no trace behind, not even ashes. On the contrary, Bailey and the three Eskus assassins had both their arms severed and were gravely wounded. Though Anthony's limbs were still intact, his crushed internal organs left him coughing up blood. The backlash from the demonic blade had also taken a devastating toll on his body. He now appeared decades older, his face gaunt and hollow, his hair gray. His frail frame made him look like a man standing at death's door."H-How is this possible? No… this can't be happening!" Bailey's expression was a mixture of shock and disbelief as he stared a

Arion's sudden appearance caught everyone off guard. They stared, wide-eyed and slack-jawed. What was going on? Wasn't Arion already dead? How could he be standing there in front of them? Could it be a ghost?They exchanged baffled looks, and their faces were filled with disbelief. They couldn't make sense of it. How could Arion possibly be alive? It was beyond their comprehension."You… you're not dead?" No one was more shocked than Willem. After all his effort, he had finally found the chance to bite into Arion's neck and drain every drop of his blood.He was certain Arion had died—there was no way he could have survived. But if Arion was dead, who was this person standing before them?"Everyone, calm down!" Bailey spoke up. "Arion's body is still over there. This person must be an imposter."At his words, everyone turned to look at the corpse lying nearby.Bailey was right. The body was still there, and there was no way Arion could still be alive. So, the person in front o

As the Snow Maiden attacked, Batuul's illusory Elephantine stirred into action. With a mighty roar, it charged forward and slammed into Arion. Its tusks, sharp as spears, aimed directly at his chest.Caught in the swirling snow, Arion couldn't avoid the attack and quickly invoked the Glow Incantation to shield himself. The tusks collided with the barrier in a deafening crash. The impact sent Arion flying, and the golden light surrounding him shattered like glass. Clearly, the illusory Elephantine's strength had far exceeded the Glow Incantation's limits.As Arion was tossed into the air, the three-headed, six-armed Chimera Wrath seized its moment. With six different weapons in hand, it launched a relentless assault.Arion swung his sword to block but was driven further back with each blow. With no solid footing in midair, his agility was useless against the onslaught.After several exchanges, one of the Chimera's weapons struck Arion squarely in the chest, sending him crashing to

After a prolonged battle, Anthony and the others finally realized the gravity of the situation.Arion wasn't just a sword master but also had unpredictable agility. No matter how they attacked, they couldn't even land a single hit. On top of that, his sword was a constant threat.If this deadlock continued, the situation would only worsen. So, when Bailey spoke, they knew it was time for decisive action, and there was no turning back. It was either kill or be killed.At that moment, Anthony, who had been holding back, finally decided to use his ultimate technique. He bit his finger and smeared the blood across his blade. His lips moved quickly as if whispering an incantation."Snow Maiden, arise!" As soon as the words left his mouth, he swung his sword. A white figure shot out and hovered in the air. It was a woman with fair skin and mesmerizing beauty. Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, her dress was as white as snow, and her eyes had a sinister gleam.The moment she appe

"How many tricks does this old geezer have?"The impact of the divine talisman explosion left everyone both shocked and enraged. No one had expected that Arion would still manage to unleash such a powerful supreme divine power even after the Glow Incantation was broken and the lightning strikes failed to cause any harm.The impact of the thousands of divine talismans exploding at once was terrifying. Only the strongest fighters—Willem, Bailey, and Batuul—could withstand it. The rest of the group was severely injured. At that moment, they finally realized the terrifying strength of Dragonmarsh's strongest man."Impressive," Willem said, landing smoothly after being thrown back. His withered skin was now covered in cracks, and blood oozed from it.Most of the shockwave from the explosion had hit him directly. Despite his impressive defense, he still took some damage. However, these injuries were nothing to him. His wounds had already healed within a few seconds, as if nothing had hap

Willem's wings, black as night with a metallic sheen, erupted from his back. Fully extended, they stretched over 30 feet. With a gentle flap, a storm of wind and eerie howls swept through the air. The sheer force was intimidating to behold.His appearance had also undergone a drastic transformation. Willem's once-handsome face was now gaunt, his skin wrinkled, and his cheekbones jutted out. Fangs protruded from his mouth, and two sharp horns sprouted from his head. He had grown taller, but his body was unnaturally thin, with his ribs and sternum visible beneath his skin. From a distance, he looked like a towering, monstrous skeleton. It was an unsettling sight that sent a chill down anyone's spine.This was Willem's ultimate form. After the transformation, his speed, strength, defense, and reflexes were greatly enhanced. His thirst for blood grew even more intense, turning him into a bloodthirsty demon.The gods, who had expressed dissatisfaction moments ago, now stood paralyzed

Willem was so fast that, even to a grandmaster, it would appear as though he had teleported, leaving no time to react.Bailey had already drawn Arion's full attention, making Willem's sudden attack almost impossible to counter.When everyone thought his attack was about to succeed, a red divine talisman suddenly shot out and stuck to his forehead just as his fangs were mere inches from Arion's neck.The talisman exploded, releasing a surge of violent energy that blasted Willem over ten yards away. Before he hit the ground, a blazing fireball instantly engulfed him.He screamed as he turned into a human torch. The fire burned fiercely, scorching his flesh and charring his body.The flames clung to him like a curse and were impossible to put out. His blood energy crackled and hissed as the fire burned, and thick black smoke rose from his body.The sight shocked everyone.Just moments ago, Willem had almost succeeded in his ambush, but Arion had been prepared. With a single talisma

Thousands of golden whips lashed out with the force of a storm, and it was impossible to dodge.The group led by Bailey launched their attacks to block and continually struck the golden whips. With each collision, energy erupted, followed by loud booming sounds.Arion stood firm like a mountain. His body was enveloped in golden light as he swung his whips. Even though he was outnumbered, he still held the advantage.Bailey and the others couldn't break through at all. A few slightly weaker gods from the Hall of Gods were forced to retreat with each lash and struggled to withstand the onslaught.At that moment, everyone finally realized the terrifying power of Dragonmarsh's strongest martial artist. Even the attacks evolved from the Glow Incantation were enough to throw them off balance."I don't believe these things can stop me!"Bailey roared as his body began to change. His already large frame grew even bulkier, like a small mountain. His shirt tore as his muscles expanded, and
