Joshua gritted his teeth and brandished his dagger again.


    “Die!”


    He exerted all his strength into this attack, channeling every ounce of his internal energy. He believed


    Dustin wouldn’t be able to block the attack even if he was made of steel.


    “Hmph!” Dustin had clearly lost his patience. As he watched the oing assault, he moved and


    grabbed the de firmly. Tightening his grip, two crisp metallic crunches were heard, and the dagger


    made of refined iron was crushed into pieces.


    “What?” Joshua was bewildered.


    Before Joshua reacted, Dustin extended out his arm again, pressing a finger on his chest.


    “Boom!”


    The next second, it felt as if his bones had disintegrated as he fell limp to the ground. Feeling numb all


    over,


    he couldn’t move an inch.


    “You What did you do to me?” Joshua was shocked and horrified. He never dreamed that he would be


    defeated by an unknown kid.


    He was a divine–level martial artist! Boulderthorn’s direct disciple! He should have been invincible in


    Swinton


    after his return.


    Why? Why couldn’t he even defeat this punk? Where the hell did hee from?


    “Let her go!” Dustin ignored him, looking at him condescendingly from above as it he was looking at an


    ant.


    “Punk! You can’t be my opponent. What trick did you use?” Joshua still couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t


    ept that a small fry like Dustin would destroy an exceptional fighter like him.


    “You speak too much nonsense!” Dustin was irritated and stomped violently on Joshua’s knees.


    With a crisp crack, his knees sprayed blood everywhere. Joshua screamed in agony as his face


    contorted in pain and beads of sweat dripped down from his face.


    “How dare you!”


    “You insolent bastard!”


    When they saw Joshua getting injured, the crowd erupted in anger.


    Arge number of the Hummer family’s guards swarmed in from different directions, surrounding


    Dustin in no time. These guards were armed with guns. They had clearly made preparations in


    advance.

    “Rhys! Let go of my brother! Otherwise, after mymand, you will be shot to oblivion!” Tina


    screeched, putting on a front.


    Even though Dustin was powerful, he was still a mass of flesh that could get injured and bleed. With so


    many armed guards surrounding him, he wouldn’t be able to escape unscathed.


    “Fire if you dare. I’d like to see who’d die first.” Dustin remarked coldly, without a hint of fear.


    “You


    fire.


    Tina was exasperated. Since Joshua was right beside Dustin, he would also get shot if they opened


    “Dustin Rhys! We’re in Hummer Vi. This is not a ce for you to behave atrociously. Let him go!


    Otherwise. you will regret it!” Jade’s expression was stone cold. She didn’t expect Joshua to be


    defeated by Dustin either.


    However, in this world, bravery changed nothing. Power was more important. Joshua had the Hummer


    family and Boulderthorn behind him. After she married him, he would also have the support of the


    Grant family. Who


    would dare challenge him then?


    “I’ll regret it? I’d like to see how much I’ll regret it


    !” As he spoke, he stomped on Joshua’s other leg, breaking it.
