An Understated Dominance Chapter 443
In terms of power, Terry was potentially Tyler Grant's rival since they both liked doing things however they wanted."So what if you're rich? You still have to submit to the Doyle family." Mike goaded secretly. As a martial arts family, the Doyle family has always acted however they liked, so they would never take this matter lightly."The Doyle family is incredibly powerful. I guess it's over for this guy." Nina shook her head, pleased with the show.Being rich was different from being powerful. Some rich families were nothing but ants to powerful families. "You scared now?" Duncan smirked. "Since you know who I am now, you should know what to do next, right?"He may not be able to withdraw 100 million dollars, but he had a powerful brother. As long as he used his brother's name, most people would let him have his way."So what? Don't be a sore loser. You've lost the bet, so you should keep your side of the bargain," Dustin responded bluntly. "Huh?" Duncan frowned. "Do you

"Are you out of your mind? How could you attack someone from the Doyle family?" Nina and the others went pale as a sheet when they saw Duncan lying on the floor, unconscious. They never expected Dustin to be so bold."So what?" Dustin replied, unconcerned."Hmmph! What an ignorant fool!" Nina glanced at him disdainfully. "The Doyle family is one of the Fabulous Five. You might end up as a corpse floating in the Ziby River by tomorrow!""Really? I don't think so." Dustin shrugged."Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're rich. The Doyle family is far stronger than you can imagine," Mike informed scornfully. "Terry Doyle is also a protective man. If he hears that his family was attacked, he'll take this seriously! If I were you, I'd start apologizing to them and atoning for my sins. That way, you might still have a chance of survival." Dustin gave the other man a small smile in response. "Well, you aren't me.""I've said what I needed to say. Since you're bein

The next morning, Dustin was reading medical literature when a silver Bentley pulled up at the entrance of the courtyard. "Bad news, Dustin! Something happened to my dad!" Ruth rushed into the building and yelled anxiously. "Calm down. Your dad won't die yet." Dustin slowly lowered his book, looking unbothered. "Huh? How did you know?" Ruth was surprised."Didn't I tell you yesterday? Your father was poisoned, and he won't live past three days. This is only the second day, so he still has one day left," Dustin answered. "Then, what should we do? Can you treat him?" Ruth pressed."I can, but on one condition.""What is it?""I hope your family can agree to your sister's request and break off the engagement with the Grant family.""Break off the engagement?" Ruth frowned. "Dustin, this isn't a matter to be taken lightly. My father won't agree to it."The marriage was one that both families were expecting. Should the engagement be broken off, the relationship between the two

At noon, Dustin sat in Ruth's car, and the two of them arrived at the Harmon estate with ease.As one of the Fabulous Five, the Harmon family's headquarters were luxurious. It had a man-made lake, a garden with artificial hills, farms, wineries, and numerous magnificent villas. Hundreds of guards patrolled the perimeters, and dozens of staff worked there, fully demonstrating the power of an aristocratic family.Staring at the garden, Dustin pondered about the annual family gathering happening tomorrow."We're here."The silver Bentley slowly pulled into the entrance of the main villa. As soon as they got out of the car, they spotted Jessica and two servants waiting for them at the entrance."You're here." Jessica gave Dustin a look over and asked cooly, "Yesterday, you said that my husband was poisoned by mystic poison. Is that true?""You wouldn't have looked for me if it weren't," Dustin answered, making Jessica narrow her eyes.She would never have sought him out if her hus

"You agree, then?" Peter regarded Dustin disdainfully with his arms folded."Of course." Dustin nodded. "Since you look so confident, I'm curious to see how good you are. However, I hope you don't regret your promise later.""Good. I'll show you how lacking your traditional medicine is compared to modern medicine!" Peter smirked smugly. He pulled a vial of green liquid from his case and explained, "See this? This is the newest antidote my team developed. Within thirty minutes, the patient will wake up again.""Good luck." Dustin's response was simple."Look closely. This is the power of science!" Peter exclaimed before slowly injecting the green drug into Hector's body.After ten minutes, the unconscious man began to react. Sweat beaded Hector's forehead, his limbs began warming up, and the blue discoloration in his skin began to recede as his condition began to improve."It's working! It's working!" Jessica and Ruth were over the moon to see the changes.As expected of a lead
An Understated Dominance Chapter 448
Jessica's eyes had turned hostile."That's odd. We've tested our antidote multiple times. There's no way it would fail." Peter began feeling slightly nervous as well."What now?" Jessica demanded with a frown."This place is too poorly equipped. There's nothing better I can do." Peter answered seriously. "So you turned out to be useless after all?" Jessica's face darkened further. The person she thought was her husband's savior turned out to be a quack doctor!"Why don't you think of another solution, Dr. Peter?" Quentin insisted."It's futile. The technology your country uses is too dated. I can only cure him back in my country." Peter shook his head, feeling proud of his country."Just admit that you can't do it and stop blaming our facilities or technology." Dustin retorted cooly."As if you'd be able to treat something I can't!" Peter humphed haughtily. "This is the difference between traditional medicine and modern medicine. You need all sorts of equipment, but we only

Not long after he spat out the dark blood, Hector came around. Although his body was weak, it was a miracle that he'd made it.As for Peter, when he saw Hector regain consciousness, he admitted defeat and apologized to Dustin sincerely. He said that he'd been foolish to underestimate the power of traditional medicine and that he'd resign from his position after returning to his country to start learning traditional medicine instead.Dustin decided to let the man be. After all, Peter may be a proud man, but he sincerely respected those who were stronger than him.The rest of the Harmon family also resumed their activities after making sure that Hector was fine. Quentin, however, made sure to glare at Dustin on his way out."How are you feeling, Dad? Are you in pain anywhere?" Ruth walked over to the bed, holding a glass of warm water."I'm fine. I just feel slightly bloated." Hector took two sips."Duh. Look at the blood you threw up. It's full of maggots!" Ruth told him, shaken.

"Huh?" Hector turned around and looked at Jessica, who reluctantly said, "You were in critical condition, so I became desperate and told him that as long as he's able to treat you, I'll let the two of them meet.""That's fine. Your intentions were good." Hector didn't get angry but responded calmly instead. "I agree to let you two meet, but you'd better not mess around. I'll have someone watching you. Got it?""Yes!" Dustin agreed immediately."Ruth, lead him to your sister," Hector instructed."Okay!" Ruth chirped.Natasha has been waiting for this chance for ages, and today, the two would finally get to meet."Oh, that reminds me …" Before leaving the room, Dustin halted and turned his head around. "Mr. Harmon, mystic poison isn't a simple issue. The person who poisoned you probably has more in store. Be careful of those around you.""Got it." Hector nodded. He has always lived in seclusion, so it wasn't easy to poison him. It was also worth noting that tomorrow was the ann

"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
