An Understated Dominance Chapter 325
Zeke almost toppled over from the slap by the middle-aged man. "You …" Zeke gritted his teeth, a scowl forming on his face after being humiliated in front of everyone. However, his hands were tied because the men outnumbered him and came with the backing of the Langfords. "My friend, let's not burn bridges. What's the point of coming at us?" Gordon frowned and intervened. "Fuck you!" The man grabbed a beer bottle and smashed it on Gordon's head. The beer was everywhere in an instant, and Gordon was bleeding from the head. "That's too much!" Zoey jumped out and protested, "Do you know who you just hit? He's the son of the Flynn family—Gordon Flynn!" "I don't care wherever the fuck he's from. He's dead meat if he gets into trouble with the Langfords." The man was ferocious. Zoey choked on anger. "Y-y-you'd better not be a bully!" "What if I am a bully? Whoever tries to step up today will stand in the firing line!" The man gestured, and his bodyguards drew their swords. Thei
An Understated Dominance Chapter 326
The middle-aged man's expression was unfriendly, "I'm warning you. Don't try to be a hero. Otherwise, I'll break both your legs!" "You can hit anyone but her." Dustin stood in front of Natasha, his gaze calm. "And if I do?" he sneered. "Then I'll cripple you," Dustin smiled. "You must be tired of living, bastard!" The middle-aged man finally erupted in anger. "Get him! I want him beaten mercilessly! I'll take full responsibility if he dies!""Yes, sir!" On his command, the bodyguards stopped holding back, immediately brandishing their knives at Dustin. Dustin slammed one hand on the table, and the knives on the table bounced up. With a wave of his sleeves, sharp whistles were heard. Appearing like hidden weapons, the knives shot straight into the bodyguards' knees. In a blink of an eye, the previously arrogant and intimidating group of bodyguards were taken down. "What?" The middle-aged man's expression shifted upon the scene laid out before him. He'd been around long e

"Don't worry. I started this. I'll make sure not to pull you both down into this mess. Of course, if you're scared, you could leave first. I didn't see a thing," Dustin said casually. A few simple words had made them feel indignant, and their faces burned, especially from the looks the three women were giving them. It was humiliating to be looked down on by an ordinary doctor. "You're dead meat, punk! All of you are dead meat!" The middle-aged man got up from the floor with a disheveled appearance. "Say that again? Who's dead meat?" Dustin gave him another slap. "You—" Before he could speak, another heavy slap landed on his face. With a grunt, finally, he fainted from the attacks. Zoey and the rest of them watched in shock. They couldn't believe Dustin was merciless and dared attack with such force, even though he knew the other party was from the Langford family. He must really not value his life! "Weakling." Dustin dusted his hands, feeling unsatisfied. "Dustin! Do yo

Zoey was ecstatic and chimed in, "Adriana, there's hope! As long as Gordon convinces Mr. Langford, I'm sure you'll be safe then." "That's great. Thanks, Gordon!" As Adriana thanked him profusely, her cleavage came into full view. "It's nothing. I'm just helping out a friend." Gordon waved his hand like it was a minor issue. "Alright, since we've resolved the matter, let's go for a few more rounds of drinks," Zeke said, calling up his driver and ushering them into his car. Just as they were about to depart, more than ten black SUVs screeched to a halt in front of the restaurant, surrounding it entirely. As the doors opened, a group of fighters with batons in hand got off and barged into the restaurant with a murderous look. "Dang! Weren't those the Langfords' men?" Zeke's eye twitched, and he was inexplicably nervous. He thought they were lucky to have left in time. If they had been slower by even two minutes, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape then. "Natasha, w

Dahlia put on a calm front even though she felt hurt from the icy glare Dustin was giving her. "Dustin, I just didn't want you to get into trouble. I didn't do it so you can feel indebted to me," she said nonchalantly. "I don't think what happens to me is any of your business." "I know you hate me. I know I've wronged you too. I'll try my best to make it up to you in the future." "Make it up to me?" Dustin scoffed, "Oh, Dahlia, you think too highly of yourself. Do you think I actually care?" "Then what do you care about? Or perhaps, is there anything you need help on?" she asked tentatively. "Sorry. I don't need anything. I just need you to get far away from me," Dustin responded. "Do you hate me that much?" Dahlia frowned. She felt an inexplicable stabbing pain in her chest. "Yeah. You played me like a dog. Am I supposed to put on a pitiful dog act to please you?" Dustin mocked. "I'm sorry …" Dahlia took in a deep breath, but, in the end, she could only lower her head.
An Understated Dominance Chapter 330
After sending Natasha home, Dustin returned to Peaceful Medical Center. At the same time, a black vehicle came to a quiet stop at a corner not far away. As the doors opened, a few masked assassins clad in black outfits approached the building slowly, and they all had silenced guns in their hands. They were well-trained and worked well together as they surrounded the entire Peace Medical Center without saying a word, blocking all entrances."Forward—" The leader made a gesture, and the men to the left of him nodded. They were just about to break in when the doors opened with a creak. A warm, yellow light shone out from the inside."Since you're already here, there's no need to sneak around. Please, come in." They heard a cold, impassive voice from the inside.The masked assassins' expressions shifted slightly. Looking through the door slit, they saw Dustin leisurely sipping his liquor while seated on a chair. They even noticed a simple meal set out on the table. He appeared calm. The

"Don't kill me! I'll talk!" The leader of the assassins was scared out of his wits. He divulged every detail, not daring to leave any stone unturned. He revealed the person who hired him and even their whereabouts. He spilled everything.Dustin nodded after he was done listening and dealt with the assassins, before leaving the building once again. While others often took their time seeking revenge, Dustin sought his revenge the very same day. Otherwise, he would lose sleep over it. …In the meantime, in the bathtub of a luxurious hotel, the white-haired young man, Wilson White, was speaking to Luis on the phone. "Don't worry, Mr. Langford, my men are skilled. They won't leave a trace. From tomorrow onwards, you will never see that punk again.""That'll be best. I don't wish for any surprises tomorrow.""Of course, I assure you everything will go smoothly, and you'll be bringing that beauty home without a hitch." He grinned."Alright, that's all. That woman won't let me touc

Dustin kept dialing and making calls while he drove. However, no matter how many times he dialed, Dahlia never answered. For some reason, Dustin was anxious. It felt as if something important was slowly slipping out of his grasp. He stepped on the accelerator and headed straight for Nicholson Villa. Ever since they got divorced, he'd never set foot in that place again. But at that moment, he couldn't care less. After he arrived, he rushed to the entrance, ringing the doorbell and pounding on the door persistently."How rude! Can't you knock gently?" Following the annoyed voice, the door opened."Dustin? What are you doing here?" Florence frowned, looking upset.Dustin went straight to the point. "Where's Dahlia? I need to see her!" "Hmph! What makes you think you can just barge in here to see her? Get lost!" Florence responded harshly. She was about to close the door as she spoke when the door was blocked by a foot. With a solemn expression, Dustin said, "I know Dahlia is in

"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
Chapter 2518
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
Chapter 2516
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
