An Understated Dominance Chapter 2031
It was different now. The slight delay in time was enough for the poison to take full effect.Dustin was dead meat."Since you're so confident, why don't you make a move?" Dustin slowly raised his sword and pointed the tip toward Bertha."Don't try to deceive me! I doubt you're as powerful as you say!" Bertha leaped off the ground. Instantly, she attacked him at the speed of light.With a flip of her hand, two sabers shot out. They stealthily slashed toward Dustin's neck.One with a keen eye would notice two specially-made steel wires attached to the saber handle."Bertha, let me help you!"Just as Bertha attacked, Chester didn't want to be left behind either. With a sudden leap, he summoned a powerful strike aimed at Dustin's head.The two attacked Dustin from the front and back. Each of their moves was deadly and with impeccable timing. Thus, this made it difficult to defend against both front and back assaults."Fools!" With a flick of Dustin's wrist, Celestial Blade instan

"What?" After seeing Chester being blown away by Dustin's sword aura, the few elite martial artists opened their mouths wide in shock.Chester was the leader of Embersteel Order and was one of the five ultimate grandmasters of the Southwest. Therefore, it didn't take much to prove that he was extremely powerful.Yet, Chester couldn't even block a mere sword aura. How shocking.Everyone wondered how powerful Dustin exactly was.After being slammed to the ground, Chester's body shuddered, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was as pale as a sheet, and he couldn't stand up."How… How could you? Aren't you already poisoned by Tranqurin?" Chester raised a finger tremblingly and pointed it toward Dustin. His face was filled with disbelief.He had seen with his own eyes that Dustin had been poisoned by Tranqurin. At this moment, the drug should have shown its effect. Under normal circumstances, Dustin should be weak and powerless right now. There was no way he could muster

"Do you think I'm scared? Chester, this jerk is just acting. Don't be fooled. If you can help me again, we'll definitely win!" Bertha replied with a gloomy expression.Chester's eyelids twitched, and he almost wanted to scold her.After all, Chester was already heavily injured and vomiting blood. Yet, Bertha still wanted him to fight. Chester wondered if she thought he was stupid.Plus, Dustin didn't seem exhausted by how energetic he looked.If Dustin summoned a powerful attack like just now, Chester would be dead."Chester, you're the leader of the Embersteel Order. Everyone knows how powerful you are. Are you telling me that you're scared of that brat?"Seeing Chester not replying, Bertha started to provoke him.If someone could take the lead and fight Dustin, Bertha naturally wouldn't need to risk her life."Bertha, I'm already heavily injured and don't have any energy to fight. I can only assist you from the side. However, since you're sure that Dustin is powerless, I'm su

The two Harmony Sect's semi-grandmasters had been slashed to death by Dustin. They had died in resentment.After seeing the two elder's heads rolling on the ground, Bertha was stunned. Instantly, cold beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.Bertha thought Dustin was powerless and had fabricated everything he said. Now, she finally understood how powerful Dustin was.Dustin could kill two semi-grandmaster martial artists with just a strike. Obviously, this wasn't something a person poisoned by Tranqurin could do.Perhaps Dustin was really immune to all the poison."Fuck! Thankfully, I didn't move just now. Otherwise, I would have been dead!" Chester gulped. He looked at Dustin with a terrified expression.Chester had never met such a formidable figure before. Despite being in his 20s, Dustin was so powerful.Damien, the most powerful martial artist in the Southwest, might not be able to win against Dustin in a one-to-one fight, either."You… How could you…" Bertha was so stunne

Although Dustin managed to catch the Frost Needle, the chill emanating from it penetrated deep into his bones.Dustin's fingers and arms started to freeze at visible speed. He couldn't seem to muster a trace of true energy in the areas affected by freezing.It was no exaggeration to say that one would become an ice statue if the needle pierced into one's body. Any level of cultivation would be rendered useless at this point.Although he didn't regard Bertha and the others highly, he was quite shocked by their attacks.Bertha seemed to be using lethal moves one after another, with Tranqurin followed by Frost Needle. If it wasn't for Dustin's cultivation level, he might lose.Indeed, one should not underestimate any enemy. There was a chance that one might lose against someone weaker than them.Dustin's body shook. Then, the ice layer on his arm shattered and dropped to the ground."How could this be?" Bertha was stunned, looking terrified. It was a life-and-death situation ju

"Stop right there! If you dare to move, I'll kill this woman!" A stern voice sounded behind Dustin.When Dustin turned to look, he saw Embersteel Order and Harmony's Sect elites coming out of the hotel while holding Grace hostage.Meanwhile, Sophia was pressing the knife against Grace's neck with a fierce expression.Dustin furrowed his brow, feeling a strong urge to kill. He could tell that Embersteel Order and Harmony's Sect's sudden ambush today was all because of Sophia.Old habits die hard, that was for sure.Sophia would have long been dead if Grace hadn't saved her from Fantasy Sea Alliance.Not only was Sophia not grateful, she even pressed a knife against Grace's neck.Sophia had a death wish!"Why are you still standing there? Put down your sword!"Sophia hid behind Grace carefully while the knife in her hand pressed against Grace's neck.Sophia knew Dustin had feelings for Grace. Thus, he wouldn't stand by and watch her die.Without a single hesitation, Dustin flu

"What?" The two people gulped anxiously.They still remembered what the Harmony Sect encountered. Thus, they knew they were dead meat if they went forward."Why are you panicking? There's no way he'll object when we hold Grace hostage!" Chester encouraged.The two Embersteel Orders looked at the restrained Grace while looking at the motionless Dustin. After hesitating for a few seconds, they finally forced themselves to walk forward.They were in a sticky situation right now.If they didn't get rid of Dustin, they might lose their lives. They would never have the chance of seizing treasures anymore.They had to take a risk no matter what.If they could seal Dustin's meridians, he would be absolutely useless and no longer a threat to them."Dustin, don't worry about me. Go ahead." Grace suddenly spoke at this moment.Naturally, she didn't wish Dustin to risk his life for her. Plus, she had many ways to get away in situations like this."Shut up, you bitch! If you dare to say s

After the palm attack, Osley stood there proudly. He looked unworldly, exuding unparalleled dominance and majesty.Meanwhile, the 100 feet crater which had appeared out of thin air was just in front of him.The pit was filled with severed limbs and bloody flesh. There wasn't a single complete corpse spotted, resembling hell on earth.This was the might of Osley's single palm attack.With a single slap, a crater in the shape of a hand was created. Plus, numerous martial arts experts had been squished to death by his attack.The remaining few, despite being lucky enough to keep their lives, had been blown several feet away. They were sprawled on the ground by the force of the palm.However, they were stunned when they stood up and saw what happened.They were rendered speechless as sweat dripped down their faces when they saw the horrendous sight inside the pit.Most experts of the Harmony Sect and Embersteel Order, no matter if they were young, old, or in a high position, were k

"Oh? I didn't expect both of you to be here," Nathaniel said.He was just about to pay his respects when he spotted Tristan and Matthias inside the mourning hall. He gave a respectful nod and said, "Hello, Tristan, Matthias."Truthfully, he wasn't surprised. He had already guessed they would show up.The four ancient houses and the eight great families were all key players he needed on his side. And with the Ballard family still undecided, he wasn't about to miss the chance to make an impression."I heard you left Oakvale on official business. Funny how quickly you came back," Tristan said, his tone laced with meaning."It wasn't anything important. When I heard about Mr. Jovian's passing, I returned immediately. I wanted to pay my respects in person," Nathaniel answered smoothly, without missing a beat.He brushed off Tristan's subtle jab and used the moment to show the Ballard family he was genuinely there to pay his respects."Don't just stand there, Nathaniel. Go pay your re

"Your Royal Highness, it's an honor to have you here," Jonathan said.Upon seeing the distinguished guest arrive, he quickly pulled himself together and aside his grief. He led his family to greet Tristan, and they bowed in respect.Before they could finish the gesture, Tristan raised a hand to stop them. "No need for such formalities," he said. "The deceased deserves our respect."He turned to Jovian's portrait, which was displayed in the mourning hall, and sighed deeply.Tristan continued, "Mr. Jovian's untimely passing is truly a great loss to Dragonmarsh. May his soul rest in peace. My condolences to your family during this difficult time."Jonathan's eyes were filled with tears as he bowed his head slightly. "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kind words. My family is heartbroken over my brother's tragic death."Tristan nodded slightly. His gaze quickly swept across the hall before asking, "I've heard that Duke Lachshire fainted from grief. How is he doing now?"Jonathan

The unrest in West Lucozia finally ended with the capture of Warrick.Every official who was his accomplice was thoroughly investigated. Those who needed to be arrested were taken into custody, and those who deserved to be punished were executed.After the purge, more than 300 officials in West Lucozia were removed from their posts. Those guilty were arrested, and those whose crimes were severe were executed.Under Austin's iron-fisted reforms, West Lucozia's government underwent a complete overhaul. Corruption, bribery, and the tangled web of illegal deals were swept away like dust in the wind.The citizens quickly noticed the difference. When they visited government offices, they no longer faced delays, refusals, or demands for bribes.Long-neglected public issues began to move forward, thanks to the organized efforts of newly appointed officials. Things were improving across the board.Instead of fearing the crackdown, the citizens welcomed it. The corrupt officials who had dr

Austin's expression also turned serious as he saw the doubt in Dustin's eyes. He knew Dustin wouldn't worry over nothing.There were many strange beings in Streuqua, including vampires, werewolves, and the like. These supernatural species were notoriously hard to kill. Even after being decapitated, they weren't necessarily dead.Austin wasn't sure if Poseidon had that kind of ability. After all, the Hall of Gods and its so-called royal gods were still a mystery to most people in West Lucozia.To play it safe, they needed to recover Poisedon's head for their own peace of mind.Out on the water, Jaxon led a team of soldiers and ship crews to comb the sea in search of Poisedon's severed head.At the docks, all eyes turned to Warrick, Mulder, and the others. They had been tied up and were now being dragged before Dustin and Austin one by one.Warrick looked pale, but there was a certain defiance in his eyes. He knew his fate was sealed. After Dustin killed Poseidon, Warrick knew his

Moments later, the once-turbulent sea finally calmed. All that remained was a dense cloud of steam. Like a giant beast, it slowly drifted across the water, as if telling the tale of the heart-pounding battle that had just taken place.Dustin stood on the surface of the sea with the Celestial Blade in hand. His face was grim as he looked ahead. His clothes were torn, and his body was covered in cuts and bruises. Blood streamed from his wounds and dyed the water beneath him red.Suddenly, a headless corpse floated to the surface. Covered in blue scales, it had torn, ragged wings on its back. The body was riddled with gaping wounds as the dark blue blood seeping from it dissipated into the water.The body belonged to Poseidon."H-He's dead? How is that possible?"Looking at the headless corpse floating on the sea, Warrick and the others couldn't help but stare in shock. They never imagined Dustin could slay one of the world's mightiest royal gods with a single blow. If they hadn'

Poseidon slowly rose from the seawater, his wound now fully healed. A flicker of madness flashed in his eyes. The severe injury he just sustained not only failed to make him retreat but instead ignited an even stronger fighting spirit within him.He sneered. "Logan, you've surprised me. But you're still going to die today."Poseidon spun his trident wildly, and the already turbulent sea grew even more violent. The waters swirled around him and formed a massive vortex. It expanded rapidly and soon reached nearly 1,000 feet wide. The surrounding waters were sucked in with terrifying force.The suction was so powerful that even Warrick, Mulder, and the others, watching from a distance, had to brace themselves to avoid being pulled in."Hmm?"Dustin frowned as he felt an overwhelming pressure closing in. The force of the swirling vortex before him was terrifying, as if it could swallow everything in its path. But he didn't flinch. In a flash, he launched forward like a streak of

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
