Scott trembled, his smile frozen as a blinding flash left him bewildered. Before he could comprehend what was going on, the light had vanished."What just happened? What's going on?" Panic gripped him as his heart raced. He felt a chill on his neck. When he touched it, his hand was covered in blood.Why was there blood? How was that possible? His thoughts were interrupted as the world around him spun.A jarring thud of something hitting the ground caught his attention. In the next second, Scott was startled to see the back of his own body from the ground.He was wearing a suit and standing tall, but there was no head on his shoulders. He had turned into a headless body."Where's my head? Where is it?" Scott tried to scream, but there was no sound. All he could do was watch as his headless body fell to the ground. Darkness enveloped his vision, and he succumbed to unconsciousness.Just like that, Scott was dead. His head had been severed in one swift move by Dustin.Everything
Lana had died because of them. Dustin planned to take Scott's severed head to show he had avenged her."You're dead meat!" Dustin's indifference and disdain annoyed Anders, leading him to throw a punch without exchanging further words. A scorching golden light shot out like a missile toward Dustin.Dustin raised his hand without dodging or evading, releasing a burst of blinding white light.The golden light and white brilliance collided with each other, resulting in a deafening roar. The collision caused overwhelming waves of energy that were like a tidal wave.There was a strong blast of wind. It hit the crowd like a tornado.The collision between two grandmaster-level experts was far beyond what an ordinary person could endure, even if it was just the aftermath of their battle.Realizing the danger, people scattered immediately to keep a safe distance."This bastard is indeed a grandmaster martial artist! No wonder he's so confident." Anders squinted his eyes. Even though
Once the dust settled, a massive crater appeared at the center of the explosion. It was roughly 30 feet in diameter, resembling a dried-up pond. It was a devastating sight. At the edge of the crater, Dustin and Anders locked eyes from a distance. Dustin was expressionless, his gaze indifferent, still holding Scott's severed head. Anders had a serious expression, facing a formidable opponent.The two stood in a tense standoff, neither making any sudden moves."Wait, did this bastard block Sir Anders' earth-shattering strike just now?" someone exclaimed."Not only did he block it, but he also looks like he hasn't suffered any injuries," another added."Wow! Since when did Oakvale have a genius who can go head-to-head with the Veros Warrior? That's pretty unbelievable!"As the two contenders battled it out, members of the Moseys looked at each other in surprise.Anders had long been an idol to everyone. In Dragonmarsh, only a few could be compared to him, and each was a top-tier
Anders shot the bald man a stern look. The bald man quickly apologized and ran away. He had intended to curry favor with Anders but was instead shot down by Anders."Men! Come here!" Anders gestured, and two guards rushed over, asking, "What are your orders, sir?""Deploy all resources and conduct a thorough investigation on Dustin Rhys. I want to know everything about him!" Anders commanded with a stern tone."Yes, sir!" The guards responded and promptly departed."Acting recklessly on my turf. Let's see who you really are!" Anders muttered, his expression cold.Knowing the opponent was a crucial part of a battle. With comprehensive information about his enemies, Anders believed he could deal with Dustin easily.…Dustin held Scott's head and confidently exited Jadeleaf Manor.He knew that his bold actions might lead to problems in the future, but he couldn't concern himself with that at the moment. His priority was to avenge Lana's death using Scott's death. It wouldn't
"What did you just say?" Matteo, who was still grieving, roared at Eleanor and Elena. His sorrow transformed into anger.Seeing things were getting out of hand, two of the Camron family members by his side quickly held Matteo back.One of them whispered, "Matteo, these two are heiresses from the high society. You can't afford to make a scene. Just let it slide.""Yeah, they're trouble. If something happens here, it will affect our whole family," another chimed in.Taking a deep breath, Matteo reluctantly suppressed his emotions."Mr. Camron, no need to get all worked up. You should watch your temper. It's not good for your health," Eleanor said, smirking.She was prepared for the occasion. She wasn't about to let the Camron family intimidate her."What do you want? My daughter's gone, and you're here to add insult to injury?" Matteo shouted."Hey, Mr. Camron, don't just accuse us like that. Lana was like a sister to us, and her passing genuinely saddens us," Eleanor said, prete
The Camron family members were in a frenzy, trying to figure out how they had attracted the attention of the Moseys. As a second-tier family, the Camrons knew they couldn't match the influence of a powerhouse like the Moseys. The Camrons knew that if the Moseys wished to, they could easily wipe the Camrons out overnight.Matteo's expression soured as he asked, "What do you want?" Despite his reluctance to admit it, the Camron family was still in serious trouble. They hadn't fulfilled the conditions promised to Scott. Even with his daughter's death, the threat loomed over them."Mr. Camron, no need to worry. We're here to help you through this tough time." Eleanor smiled."Yeah. Given our deep connection with the Moseys, if we vouch for you, the Camron family will be spared," Elena added confidently."Why are you helping us when we're not even related?" Matteo asked sternly. He wasn't buying their seemingly kind acts."Well, that brings us back to the deal I mentioned earlier
"Dustin? What in the world are you doing here?" Eleanor furrowed her eyebrows, her expression turning icy at the sight of Dustin. Their past encounters had already made them sworn enemies."Rhys! Why do you keep showing up everywhere? Seriously, talk about bad luck!" Elena grimaced in disgust. Their last visit to Camron Medicals had been a disaster. Instead of gaining an advantage, they faced severe criticism, deepening her resentment toward him."If you two are here for the Dew Balm formula, I strongly advise you to drop that idea right now," Dustin spoke coldly."What does it have to do with you? Stop butting into other's problems!" Eleanor huffed."Exactly! Your life is hanging by a thread, and you dare to meddle in our affairs? Are you trying to speed up your death?" Elena mocked.They knew well that Lana's death was linked to Scott, and they had come to take advantage of the situation. As for Dustin, he was just a step away from death. Once Scott's men went after him, h
The Camron family was terrified of what Scott was capable of.Eleanor's expression softened as she heard the Camron family's pleas. She calmly stated, "I'm willing to give you a chance. I'll hold off on that call and maybe even help the Camron family out of this mess. "But, like I said, you've got to hand over the Dew Balm formula.""No problem, we're good with that. We'll hand over the formula." Corey nodded eagerly.The Camron family's life was flourishing, and they weren't willing to risk their well-being for a simple formula.Eleanor turned to Matteo and asked, "Mr. Camron, what's your take on this?"Matteo pondered, biting his lip, and eventually gave a reluctant nod. The Welch and Forrest families seemed well-prepared and determined. The imposing presence of the Moseys left the Camron family with few options.The group with the secret that everyone desired now had to carry the weight of the sins of the guilty party that was aiming for their doom. This unexpected twist
