“How dare Dustin kill the members of the Martial League! He even dared to resist the order of a prime level warrant of arrest and destroy the Dragon Pendant of the Bones family!” Several people who had been called to the headquarters were greatly agitated and shocked by the news. “This is blatant disrespect toward Mr. Bones. How can he be so arrogant? What gives him such confidence?” they whispered. Timothy’s rage was growing uncontrollably. “He wants to die! He’s going to die ten times over!” Timothy said viciously. “Mr. Snow, gather all the best fighters of the branch headquarters immediately. They will follow me to the West family villa. I will personally capture the criminal Dustin Fox!” said Timothy with gritted teeth. Soon, the arrangements for the men were made, and they formed a huge troop as they marched to the West family villa. Outside the West family villa, Timothy waved a hand. “Surround the property. Make sure he can’t escape!” The elite fighters o
Hell Hall’s information network was a sophisticated and widespread one. How was it that it was unable to find more information about such an insignificant family on the outskirts of Lannopolis? This meant that the Sorensen family was hiding something. They were not as small and insignificant as they seemed. “No matter what, I will get my hands on the 200-year-old Solomon’s Seal!” Dustin said solemnly. Soon, the car came to a stop. “My Liege, we have arrived at the Sorensen family villa,” someone said from outside the car. Dustin got out of the car. The villa was quite old. Dustin could tell that it had been here for at least a few hundred years. The front gate was not very big. There was a sign which indicated that this was the Sorensen family villa. Dustin regarded the villa carefully. He looked a little shocked. He had a feeling that the Sorensen family was unusual. Dustin indicated for the Hell Guard to step forward and ring the bell. It would be ideal
The whole place fell silent for a long while. Who would have thought that such a fragile-looking old man would be so startlingly powerful? The elite fighters of the Martial League were flabbergasted by the sight. Even Timothy and Elisa were stunned. “Who… Who are you?” Timothy asked fearfully. He was a ninth grade fighter. Someone who could achieve that level of skill at his age was undoubtedly a prodigy. Also, he was a member of the Bones family, so he was much more discerning than most people. However, he had been shocked to the core when the old man had made his move. A thought popped into Timothy’s mind. The old man was surely a sovereign grade fighter. Not only that, but the old man also had to be one of the strongest fighters among sovereign grade fighters. If he were not, he would not have such powerful pure energy. This made Timothy wary. He could be as arrogant as he wanted with Victor because Victor was a sovereign grade fighter who used to work
Dustin frowned when he heard that. “What? You’re not selling it? Are you worried I won’t be able to afford it?” Timothy’s face darkened. “Sir, the man before you is a criminal guilty of the most heinous crimes. Meanwhile, this gentleman is an accomplished young man from a respected family with great position and power. I think you surely know who you should sell it to, right?” Elisa said meaningfully. Howard shot her an icy glance. “The Sorensen family has never much cared for background or power, only the measure of a man.” Howard did not give in. Elisa was so mad that she was heaving. “If you want an old ingredient of the Sorensen family, then you must be able to pass the Sorensen family’s challenge to get it,” Howard said slowly. “What kind of challenge?” Both Dustin and Timothy asked at the same time. “Come with me.” Howard walked into the Sorensen family villa’s grounds, and Dustin quickly followed him. “Stand guard at all points outside. Don’t let Fox e
How was it that this pathway could only be walked by sovereign grade fighters? Timothy and Elisa were distraught. Timothy had always been considered a prodigy and praised for his achievements. He was stricken by the fact that he did not meet the minimum requirement for this test. “If Timothy can’t try, how can Dustin? What’s going on? Don’t tell me he’s a sovereign grade fighter!” Elisa said angrily. The moment Elisa said that, Timothy froze. Elisa herself went stiff after she realized what she had said. They looked at Dustin in disbelief. Could it be that Dustin was a sovereign grade fighter? Elisa did not have a good idea of the grades in the martial world. All she knew was that a sovereign grade fighter was very powerful. Even though she had seen Dustin fight many times, she never thought that he might be that powerful. Since most people who fought Dustin were taken down in just one strike, Elisa could never really tell how strong Dustin was. It was only at
At that moment, Timothy was completely exhausted. He did not have an ounce of energy left in his body. “What a terrifying knife!” he muttered. He was still reeling from fear. He finally understood the horror and danger of that pathway. “It’s your turn, kid,” Howard said. Dustin walked onto the path confidently. Elisa and Timothy stared at his feet. They wanted to see Dustin scream and get hurt. They wanted him to suffer the same fate, if not worse, than Timothy. Yet, Dustin moved steadily onward and did not look at all distressed. After he took his first step, he continued on with the second and third steps. Timothy gritted his teeth. His nails dug into his palms. The difference between them was obvious to see. He had been so conceited. When he had taken a single step onto the pathway, he had been repelled and seriously injured. Meanwhile, Dustin had easily taken three steps down. They were not on the same level. Howard observed Dustin’s steps in
The day after his visit to the Sorensen family villa, Dustin fed Irene the antidote. After monitoring her condition, Dustin frowned. He had to find the final ingredient quickly. If he failed, Irene would soon slip into a vegetative state fully. “I want to go out for a walk. I’ve been lying down for days. I feel like I’m rotting,” Irene said with a bitter smile. “Sure. I’ll go with you,” Dustin said. Irene was thrilled. She got up and got dressed. When women claimed they wanted to go for a walk, they usually meant shopping. Irene was no different. Irene dragged Dustin straight to Lannopolis’s largest mall. At that moment, the leader of Hell Hall, the King of Hades himself, had become a mere tool for carrying shopping bags. The West family had fallen a long time ago, so they were not exactly wealthy. Irene had been brought up well, so she was not extravagant. Although she bought a lot of stuff, they were not expensive. Dustin noticed all of this. When they lef
Dustin’s adoptive father had been a formidable man. It would not be surprising even if one of the Seven Clans of Central Harbor pledged themselves in service of the Wyatt family, let alone a prominent family in Lannopolis. “Fox, if something happens to Phoebe, I’ll make sure you die painfully!” Jaxon said threateningly. “You don’t have what it takes to threaten me,” Dustin said flatly. Jaxon’s gaze turned vicious. He was about to rush forward and grab Dustin’s collar. Elisa paled and pulled Jaxon back. Dustin was a sovereign grade fighter, and Jaxon could not beat him. “What’s this? Are you here to shop for clothes, too?” Elisa looked into the boutique. It seemed like she had found to attack him in at least one aspect. Her expression turned mocking. “Dustin, you should know that this boutique isn’t a place for just anyone to shop at. Every item of clothing inside is exorbitantly priced. It’s not something most people can afford. “Maybe you’re at the wrong place? You
