An Understated Dominance Chapter 173
"Ask the old man?" Quentin first looked stunned, then his face darkened."Punk! Do you think I'm an idiot? The old man is already dead; how could you ask him anything?""He may be dead, but his body is still warm. Coincidentally, I have a way to bring the dead back to life." Dustin smiled faintly."Nonsense! Do you think you're a god? Bring the dead back to life? Why don't you say you know how to fly?" Quentin sneered."Who is this young man? How dare he speak so arrogantly?""Yeah! Even Dr. Shane wouldn’t dare say that he could bring the dead back to life. This kid is really too conceited!" "In my opinion, he just wants to show off in front of Ms. Harmon and impress her."In response to Dustin's words, the people around him were filled with scorn.The old man was already dead, how could he bring a dead person back to life? Wasn’t he spouting nonsense? "Whether it's nonsense or not, we'll find out soon enough." Dustin didn't explain further and walked up to the old man."He

When the old man suddenly sat up, all the guests were startled. Some of the women screamed frantically, losing their composure."It’s a zombie!"Shocked to the core, the crowd scattered in all directions. No one expected that the motionless corpse would suddenly spring to life.It was such a terrifying moment! "Dad? Y—you're not dead?" The middle-aged man pretended to be shocked."Yes, I'm not dead." The old man gave a forced smile. His voice was slurred as his dentures were knocked out. Combined with his swollen cheeks, the old man was a comical sight. "Oh my god! This young man could even revive the dead! How could this be?" "No words could express my amazement right now!""What a strange way to treat people! Are medical techniques nowadays getting more straightforward?" Staring at the old man, who was obviously alive and kicking, there was pandemonium in the hall. Some of the onlookers were shocked, and some were curious."Hey, I saved your father's life! Is it to
An Understated Dominance Chapter 175
After a stormy event, the Harmon family’s press conference ended successfully. On the other hand, the influential Hummer family’s press conference ended in dismal failure. The emergence of Immortunol dealt a huge blow to the sales of Eternumax. Compared to another medicine with better efficacy and a cheaper price, Eternumax was regarded as garbage.The Hummer family’s Eternumax couldn't be sold at all. In the end, they were stuck with piles of rotting inventory. The meticulous game planned by Edwin was a complete failure. Although this disaster was unable to weaken the Hummer family’s foundation, it still caused them heavy losses. After the press conference, Dustin was about to say goodbye when he was stopped by Ruth at the door. "Dustin, I need a favor from you." "What is it?" Dustin asked suspiciously. "I'm going to a reunion with some of my classmates later, can you come with me and be my bodyguard?" Ruth was very straightforward. "The Harmon family has so many bodyg

"Ruth, when did you get a boyfriend? Why wasn’t I informed?" Nigel's face turned ugly as he stared at Dustin with hostility. "Do I need to report to you when I have a boyfriend? You really think too highly of yourself." Ruth rolled her eyes. She had already rejected Nigel multiple times, but he just wouldn't give up and continued to pester her."I'm just worried that you might be deceived. There are a lot of con artists these days who use their good looks to cheat people out of their wealth," Nigel said in a mocking tone."That's not true! Dustin is not a con man!" Sheila quickly defended him. When everyone fixed their gazes on her, Sheila realized that she had spoken out of turn and immediately shut her mouth."Ms. Murray, what's with the sachet on your neck?" Dustin suddenly noticed something unusual."Is there a problem?" Sheila picked up the sachet and examined it."Throw it away. It's a little suspicious." Dustin shook his head."Hey, what do you mean? This aromatic sach

"You attacked out of turn!" Nigel held his bleeding nose and scowled at the assassins' leader.Damn it, he didn't even have a chance to show off in front of Ruth! Where were his manners!"It’s your fault for getting distracted in battle! Are you tired of living?" The leader sneered."Scumbag, you are getting on my nerves! I'll give you one last chance to kneel and beg for mercy, otherwise, I will roundhouse kick you in the arse!" Nigel glared at him viciously. As he threatened, Nigel leaped into the air and did a somersault, looking quite impressive. "Arrogant fool!" The assassins' leader’s eyes were cold as he and his remaining men rushed toward Nigel at once. "Be careful, Mr. Lincoln!" The girls exclaimed in shock."Don’t overestimate yourself!" Nigel roared fearlessly as he took a step back to perform his special move. He spun around like a spinning top, attacking the assassins ferociously. His kicks were merciless and deadly; anyone who got close to Nigel was knocked
An Understated Dominance Chapter 178
There was pin-drop silence in the private room. At a loss for words, everyone was aghast at what had happened. No one expected the twist of events. Just a minute ago, Nigel was their hero, flaunting his strength and skills, but now he was lying helplessly on the ground like a dead dog. How could this bald guy be so powerful? "H—how dare you hurt me? Do you know who I am? I'm Nigel Lin…""Shut the hell up!" With a crack, the bald man stepped on Nigel’s leg and broke it. Nigel wailed in pain, with cold sweat appearing on his forehead. "If you’ve got the nerve, tell me your names!" Nigel gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with rage."Listen up! My name is Brent Garcia, and this is my brother, Wade Garcia!" The bald man in green announced loudly."Brent Garcia, Wade Garcia? Could it be...are you guys the Four Scoundrels?" Nigel's pupils shrank in fear."The Four Scoundrels!" Everyone was shocked at the revelation. The Four Scoundrels was a notorious group of merciless a
An Understated Dominance Chapter 179
"H—how was this possible?!" Nigel gasped, his mouth wide and his face full of disbelief.He finally witnessed how formidable the Four Scoundrels were in person. Either one of them could quickly snuff him out.It was perhaps fate that an expert like himself had been crippled by a doctor they looked down upon.Such a thing was practically unheard of!"How is this guy so powerful?" Claudia's eyes widened in shock and bewilderment.Initially, she had assumed that Dustin was an unsavory character who only knew how to resort to using dirty tricks up his sleeve, so she hadn’t expected him to be so skilled in martial arts.He was miles better than her!He wielded such strength at such a young age, too. She was frozen on the spot once the revelation hit her that she was no longer a goddess among men."Dustin’s way too cool!" Sheila cheered as her eyes sparkled.After exchanging glances with one another, the rest of the girls also started looking at him in a different light. Not used
An Understated Dominance Chapter 180
Everyone in the room was flabbergasted as they stared at Xavier, who’d been mercilessly battered and bruised.No one had expected Dustin to be so bold as to slap Xavier. Everyone knew that the Horst family was among the five most powerful families in the Southern province. They were the top of the top! They were essentially untouchable!As an immediate heir, he was the rising star of the Horst family.So, no matter where he went, he’d have the stars laid out at his feet.No one had ever dared to humiliate him in public like this, much less slap him like a maniac so many times.Was this guy batshit crazy?"Y—you dare hit me?" Xavier asked rhetorically. The corners of his eyes started twitching as he tried to put on a fierce expression."I'm not just going to beat you, I'm going to make sure you can never use your hands ever again!" Dustin snorted and proceeded to stomp on his wrist, breaking it."Argh!" Xavier wailed in pain as he broke out in a cold sweat, his expression twis

"This is interesting." Dustin smirked as the dense barrage of swords came slashing down at him. In the blink of an eye, his figure dissolved into a wisp of smoke and vanished.A storm of sword shadows carrying the force that could split rivers and overturn seas crashed down on the fishing boat where he had just been standing. The entire vessel broke apart in an instant—some sinking into the depths while others drifted across the water."What? He dodged it?" Warrick's eyes flickered with surprise.Mulder's attack just now had been a 360-degree attack. Once caught in its range, there was no chance to dodge—only the option to endure. He couldn't understand how Dustin had managed to avoid it. Did he just teleport?"Hiding like a coward? What kind of warrior are you? Come fight me face-to-face."Frustrated after his attack missed again, Mulder grew desperate. His enhanced serum would only last for 15 minutes. If this dragged on, he'd collapse from exhaustion before Dustin even touche

"Oh? Are we going all out now?" Dustin smirked, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.Mulder, who had advanced to become a grandmaster martial artist through drugs, had a weak foundation. Even after taking the enhanced serum, he still posed no threat to Dustin. If Mulder were a hundred times stronger, he might just barely be able to fight Dustin.As the serum's effects pushed his body to the limit, Mulder suddenly let out a furious roar. His muscles swelled rapidly, and his bones cracked as they expanded. His body grew larger at an alarming rate, and his clothes tore apart under the strain.His six-foot frame stretched to nearly seven feet in mere moments as his body swelled to monstrous proportions. His face twisted fiercely, and his skin darkened as black scales surfaced.With another guttural growl, his roar turned beastlike. He grabbed his shredded shirt and ripped it away, exposing his broad chest covered in dark scales. A faint, eerie sheen flickered across their surface."D

Dustin's words made Mulder frown.Mulder knew all too well that Warrick was the kind of man who had no sense of loyalty or honor. If Warrick could kill his own personal guards without hesitation, what would stop him from killing a stranger? Mulder was certain that the moment things went south, Warrick would be the first to flee. Given the choice, he'd never willingly risk his life as Warrick's sacrificial pawn. But now, there was no turning back.With his undercover identity exposed and him helping Warrick escape, Mulder became a sworn enemy of West Lucozia. His name was now on the most-wanted list.Tonight was their best chance to escape. If they missed it, finding another way out would be nearly impossible.There was only one path left for him—kill whoever stood in his way and make it onto that escape boat."Enough talk, punk. Let's see what you're really made of," Mulder said.After weighing his options, he gritted his teeth and finally decided to draw his longsword. His fig

"You had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next," Dustin said.With a slight squeeze of his fingers, the steel blades clamped between them shattered with a sharp clang.Before the two Hall of Gods members could even react, Dustin waved his hand.The two men were sent flying as if they'd been hit by a truck, hurtling over 30 feet through the air. Blood sprayed from their mouths and noses before they hit the ground. They were critically injured and on the verge of death.Dustin slowly turned his head and looked at the man who had just tried to ambush him.The man glanced at the broken sword in his hand, then at Dustin, who looked utterly unfazed. He hesitated for a split second—then bolted.With a powerful leap, he dove straight for the sea. He knew Dustin's strength was on a completely different level. There was no chance of outrunning him on land, so the only hope was to disappear into the water.It might have worked—if not for what happened next.Just before he hit

"You're not a fisherman? Who the hell are you?"Mulder's guard shot up the moment he got a clear look at the young man's face.Fishermen who spent their days at sea were usually tanned from the sun, but this one had a fair complexion. It felt a little strangeNoticing something was off, the men behind Mulder drew their blades and fixed their sharp gazes on the fisherman.The so-called fisherman standing guard wasn't just anyone—it was Dustin, who had been waiting for them all along.Since his plan was set in motion, he'd been stationed there from morning until midnight. After what felt like an eternity, his targets had finally arrived."Isn't it obvious? I'm here to capture you."Dustin rose from the deck and rolled his shoulders before speaking in an even tone. "If you don't want to die, surrender now. Otherwise, it'll be too late.""Watch out! It could be an ambush." Mulder swiftly pulled out his dagger. His sharp gaze scanned the surroundings for any sign of hidden troops.

As night fell, Warrick sat motionless in his room as he tried to calm his mind through meditation. He had always been able to clear his mind with ease. But tonight, no matter how hard he tried, focus eluded him. A restless unease settled over him and refused to let him relax.Nearly two hours passed before Mulder's scouts finally returned. This time, they brought good news.The smuggling route they had scouted was completely safe, with no signs of an ambush. The West Lucozia army had yet to discover this potential escape route.Once everything was confirmed, Mulder let out a breath of relief. Warrick, too, finally felt the weight lift from his chest."Since the route is safe, we should set out immediately to avoid any unexpected complications." Warrick said. He had no intention of waiting any longer. He was a wanted man, and every moment in West Lucozia increased his chances of capture. There was no telling when the army might surround him. Only by escaping to Thaloria would he

After a hearty meal, the burly Warrick sprawled lazily onto the bed and dozed off. He slept soundly till dusk, lost in a deep dream. When the sky was painted in brilliant hues of the setting sun, only then did he wake up leisurely.The exhaustion from the previous day seemed to have melted away. He felt invigorated, refreshed, and in high spirits.At that moment, Leigh had already set the table in the hall with quiet efficiency. Compared to the first meal, this spread was far more lavish.At the center of the table sat a whole roasted pig. Its golden-brown skin glistened with a rich, crispy sheen. The mouthwatering aroma filled the room, making it impossible not to crave a bite.Warrick had never been one for formalities. The moment he saw the feast, he didn't hesitate. He strode over, took a seat, and started digging in. He ate with zero restraint without sparing a single thought for Mulder, who was still out gathering intel.After a while, half of the roast pig was gone. His fac

"Who is it?" Warrick's grip tightened around the hilt of his steel blade. His eyes, sharp and alert, were like those of a startled predator—full of caution and menace.For the past few days, he had been on edge, like a cornered animal. He barely slept and was constantly on high alert, fearing danger would strike at any moment.The door slowly creaked open. An elderly man with gray hair stepped inside with a tray of fruit and pastries in both hands.Before he could even register what was happening, a flash of cold steel appeared, and Warrick's blade was at the elderly man's throat.The elderly man trembled with fear. The tray slipped from his grasp, and fruit and pastries scattered on the floor."Easy, Sir Prescott. He's one of us." Mulder stepped forward and pressed down on the flat of Warrick's blade with a finger. He smiled and explained, "His name's Leigh Houston. He's mute and has served the Hall of Gods for years. He keeps watch over this tunnel entrance and has never slipp

"Here's the problem—even if we know Warrick's intentions, how do we stop him?" Austin asked.Right now, Warrick had already disappeared without a trace. Austin's team hadn't even come close enough to get a hold of him, so there was no way to track him down.West Lucozia's vast territory and resources made it impossible to seal off every exit route completely. While it might be manageable in the short term, prolonging such an operation would significantly impact West Lucozia's economy. Wasting resources on a single fugitive wasn't a wise move."Warrick is a wanted man across the entire city. There's no way he's leaving through official channels. He'll have to sneak his way out," Dustin analyzed. He continued, "According to the maritime charts, if he's traveling from West Lucozia to Artea, he'll have to go through Thaloria. That's our lead. Get someone on it immediately—find out how many smuggling routes there are from West Lucozia to Thaloria.""Got it. I'll get it done right away
