An Understated Dominance Chapter 343
Looking at the hunchbacked man, who appeared as if he had zero prestige, Ethan was scared out of his wits. He dared not say anything. This man in front of him was someone noble from Stonia. Even the crowned head would have to show him respect. Hence, it wasn't exaggerating to say that Rufus could easily take their lives at will. When Dustin saw him, his expression darkened. There was fury in his eyes. "It looks like a good show is coming up." Curling up his lips, Adam gloated and immediately retreated to one side.Under the crowd's gaze, Rufus limped in, looking like someone of ordinary status. Nevertheless, the people in the hall unconsciously made room for him to walk past them. Finally, he stopped in front of Dustin. "It's been a while. I didn't expect you to have grown this much."Staring at Dustin, who was taller than him by half a head, Rufus couldn't help but part his lips and grin. His broken front teeth made him seem a little comical. "I didn't expect you to be sti

Meanwhile, Florence was frantically rummaging through the drawers and cabinets in the Nicholson Villa to pack up their things."Dahlia, quick! Go and get all the jewelry we have in the house! We can't stay in Swinton anymore. Let's quickly pack up and flee abroad for the time being. I've already bought the flight tickets. We still have several million dollars of savings and some valuables at home. Those will be enough for us to survive for a while." Florence was on tenterhooks.Dahlia's breach of promise had not only humiliated the Langfords but also offended the Glenstead Nicholsons. Even if they were in Stonia, Dahlia and the rest wouldn't be able to find a safe place to stay, let alone in a small place like Swinton. When Florence saw that Dahlia wasn't responding to her, she became even more anxious. "Dahlia! What are you waiting for? Quickly pack your stuff!" "Mom, the matter has yet to reach that extreme. We don't need to run away." Dahlia shook her head. "Alas, don't you

"Take her away!" Dakota pointed her finger at Dahlia. "Let's see who has the guts to do that!" All of a sudden, a loud and stern voice came through the door. Then, Dustin strutted in with Maximus. "Don't blame me for being merciless if you dare challenge me today!" "Dustin?" Dahlia brightened up. At the sight of him, she finally felt relieved. He had promised her that he would come back safely. Indeed, it wasn't a lie. "You … You're still alive?" Dakota's eyes widened in disbelief.She clearly saw him surrounded by the Langfords before she left the banquet hall earlier. "How could he escape from that?" Dakota thought."Do you want me to die so badly? No matter what, I am still your mom's life savior. Don't you have any sense of gratitude toward me?" Dustin replied flatly."Hmph! Stop playing dumb! I don't care how you escaped! You have offended the Langford family, and now you're going to suffer because of that!" Dakota shot daggers at him."So what if I offended the La

"We beg for your forgiveness, Ms. Nicholson!"The rest of the Langfords followed suit and kneeled down on the floor. At the sight of that, Dahlia was stunned, and so was Dakota. Even Florence, who had been whining until a moment ago, stood there in a trance. They thought the Langfords were here to seek revenge. However, it had never occurred to the Nicholsons that the Langfords would behave so humbly all of a sudden. "Ms. Nicholson, I'm sorry. I thought too highly of myself. Please forgive me!" When Luis saw that Dahlia wasn't making any responses, he began to slap his face like he was crazy, even though his cheeks were already red and swollen. Despite the pain, he dared not stop. Half an hour ago, after finding out Dustin's true identity at the banquet hall, Luis was frightened out of his wits. He thought he was doomed. Ethan even wanted to kick him out of the Langford family and cut ties with him. However, to everyone's surprise, Dustin was willing to let Luis off the ho

Dahlia shook her head fervently with a bewildered expression. "Mr. Langford, we'd be more than thankful if you didn't find any faults with us. We would never dare blame you for anything!""Exactly! Please get up, Mr. Langford. Look at you! You're bleeding so much! I'll go get you a Band-Aid!" Florence quickly went into the bedroom to get the first-aid kit."A Band-Aid?" Luis could not believe his ears. He'd severed two of his fingers, for goodness sake! What use did he have for Band-Aids?"Why don't you go to the hospital, Mr. Langford? Your bleeding doesn't seem to be stopping," Dahlia suggested cautiously."Have you forgiven me, Ms. Nicholson?" Luis asked expectantly."I guess so. As long as you don't come and bother me anymore, you're forgiven." Dahlia nodded."No problem at all! I'll make myself scarce now and never bother you again!" Luis was elated. He nodded at both Dustin and Dahlia as a sign of apology before he made a run for it with his men in tow."Hey, Mr. Langford! Your B

"Wha—" Dustin's smile immediately dropped from his face the moment he saw who it was that came in through the door. His smile was replaced by hostility. "Who let you in? Get out!""Don't be mistaken, I'm just here to see my daughter-in-law. This has nothing to do with you." Rufus chuckled merrily as he hobbled in through the door."Do you—do you know each other?" Dahlia looked from one to the other, perplexed."You're Dahlia, aren't you? As expected, what a beauty!" Rufus beamed brightly. "Oh, right, I haven't introduced myself. I'm Dustin's father, your father-in-law.""Dustin's father?" Dahlia was taken aback by the piece of information. Though there wasn't exactly anything special about Dustin, he had exceptionally good looks. He was a fine specimen of a man if anything. However, this old man before her was the farthest thing from handsome. The two were vastly different in the looks department."What? We don't look alike?" Rufus chuckled nonchalantly. "This lad looks like his mom, s

"Lunch is ready!" Florence had quickly whipped up a lavish meal, and every dish looked sumptuous.Dustin had been prepared to make an excuse and slip away but was stopped by Dahlia. In the end, he had no choice but to stay for the meal with Rufus. It was the first time the father and son pair had had a meal together at the same table. As they ate, Rufus' eyes gradually welled up with tears. It felt like it'd been a lifetime for him, but the day finally came when he could sit down and have a meal with his son. He had yet to receive his son's forgiveness, but what he had now was good enough. He was already very satisfied. Of course, many people out there would never believe that the ruthless and formidable Prince of Theswe would get teary-eyed over a meal.Once he had his fill, Rufus tactfully took his leave. He knew that if he stayed on any longer, his son would most likely lose his temper.Rufus left the Nicholson Villa with a spring in his step."How did things go, Sir?" When he got

Dahlia was genuinely curious about Dustin's past. After getting to know him better these days, she found that he was indeed a mystery."It's a long story." Dustin shook his head."Alright, I'll be here whenever you feel like talking about it." Dahlia gave him a warm smile."Sure." Dustin nodded."It's getting colder these days. Let's go to the mall to get some new clothes for winter," Dahlia suggested."Sure, we can get some new clothes, but I'll have you know, I'm broke!" Dustin shrugged."Ugh! What a miser!" Dahlia rolled her eyes. "I'll pay for everything today. Will that do?""Why, thank you, Ms. Nicholson!" Without another word, Dustin hurried off to bring the car over. It's been three years since they got married, but they rarely went out shopping together.The moment they left, Florence immediately took out the sapphire and had a good look at it. "Oh, my precious honeybunch of a sapphire! What luck I'm in today!" The more she studied it, the more she loved it."Aunt Florence, w

"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

The sudden turn of events took everyone by surprise. No one had expected Arion to strike so suddenly; he was so fast that they couldn't even see his movement.Even Willem, renowned for his speed, couldn't react in time. One slap had sent him flying—simple, brutal, and unstoppable.At that moment, they finally realized that the seemingly harmless Arion was much more formidable than they had imagined.Willem staggered to his feet and reached up to straighten his twisted neck. His collapsed cheek began to heal at a visible rate. Fortunately for him, vampires possessed extraordinary regenerative abilities. Without it, the slap would have crippled him."You're strong for an old geezer, but it'll take more than that to finish me off," Willem hissed through clenched teeth. The bloodthirst in his eyes was unmistakable as he glared at Arion. If he could drain Arion's blood, his strength would surge to unimaginable heights."Oh? This is interesting." Arion raised an eyebrow with a faint smi

The battle between the Hall of Gods and Sacred Wrym Summit raged with unrelenting intensity. The Hall of Gods had made meticulous preparations for this invasion. Besides recruiting powerful martial artists from around the world, they also distributed valuable enhanced serums to everyone. To counter Sacred Wrym Summit's Stormcraft technique, they developed a special combat suit capable of resisting such attacks. Generally, a divine martial artist struck by Stormcraft would instantly lose their combat ability, but this special suit reduced the effectiveness of the attack by half. Even if struck, they could recover after a brief moment to continue fighting. The defensive capabilities of this gear were nearly flawless.In addition, their greatest strength was the sheer weight of their numbers. They had at least ten thousand people, including hired outlaws, under their command. During the siege, they were densely packed like a swarm of bees.In contrast, Sacred Wrym Summit had only

Willard's ultimate move cleared the battlefield in an instant. The martial artists who had rushed forward were either dead or critically wounded, with no ability to defend themselves."This… How is this possible?" Hank's eyes widened in terror as cold sweat beaded on his forehead.Under the restriction of the sealing formation, even ultimate grandmasters couldn't unleash their full strength. But Willard, with nothing more than a flask of liquor, had managed to tap into a supreme divine power far beyond his cultivation level.Though he was only at the grandmaster level, his move, Infinite Spirit Manifestation, carried the might of an ultimate grandmaster. If he were to use it again, the outcome would be grim for everyone, including himself."Retract!" Willard took a deep breath and the thousands of illusory images that had surged forth earlier instantly retracted into his body. His face turned red and pale as his breath grew heavy and ragged.The toll of using Infinite Spirit Manif

"Take a guess." Willard didn't answer. Instead, he took another sip from his flask.His cultivation had been sealed, but his strength came from the wine in his hand. The wine was refined with valuable herbs and contained dense spiritual energy, which he could absorb and convert into combat power.In short, every sip made him stronger. Even with his cultivation sealed, he could still execute powerful techniques."It's the wine, isn't it?" Garrett's gaze landed on the flask, and a quick realization set in. Willard drank before and after every attack, which hinted at something suspicious."Bingo. But no prize for you." Willard smirked and launched forward with a palm strike aimed at Garrett. Though his strength wasn't at its peak, the attack remained a deadly threat to the already injured Garrett."Mr. Styles, save me." Garrett knew he had no chance of blocking it and cried for help."Go to hell, traitor!" Hank saw the internal commotion unfold and threw a powerful punch at Willard

With a longsword in hand, Dustin plunged into the crowd like a tiger among sheep and cut down his enemies with brutal efficiency.Though he couldn't tap into his mystical energy, his physical strength far outstripped that of an average martial artist. His speed, power, reflexes, and combat skills crushed anyone in his path.Every swing of his blade was precise and targeted the enemy's vital spots with deadly accuracy, which left no room for defense.Under his relentless assault, the assassins were helpless. The air rang with their screams as bodies fell one after another.Unlike the tournament match, Dustin now unleashed his full power in this life-or-death fight. His attacks were becoming more brutal and relentless than ever."This kid's tougher than I thought." Hank frowned as he watched his men struggle.He hadn't expected Dustin to have such formidable combat prowess, even with his sealed cultivation. If an unmatched genius like Dustin couldn't be made an ally, he had to be e
