“Wait!”


    Nikki came running out and stood between Dustin and Edith.


    “Can we please sit down and talk things through calmly? There must be a misunderstanding. Please


    don’t fight.”


    “Get lost! This is none of your business!” Edith red at her fiercely.


    “Madam Edith, Dustin saved your life today! You can’t repay his kindness with revenge!” Nikki was


    exasperated.


    “Shut up! You’re in no ce to speak here!” Edith lost her cool.


    It was embarrassing for her to be lectured by her disciple.


    “Madam Parker, I’m giving you a chance for Nikki’s sake.”


    Dustin demanded coldly, “If you break Brittany’s leg, we can all pretend that nothing happened today.”


    “Utter rubbish! Why should anyone do as you say? Who do you think you are?” Brittany red at him.

    “Have you gone mad, brat? What makes you think that I’ll take orders from you?” Edith looked at him


    condescendingly.


    “Why?” Dustin stepped forward before confidently saying, “Because I have the original copy of the Jade


    Maiden Scripture! Is that enough?”


    “The Jade Maiden Scripture?”


    The crowd was in an uproar when they heard that. They all gaped with greed in their eyes.


    The Jade Maiden Scripture was the treasure of their guild. Anyone who could master the moves in the


    Jade Maiden Scripture could advance at an rming speed.


    “Hey, brat! Is that true?” Edith’s eyes widened, both in anticipation and in doubt.


    The Jade Maiden Scripture she had previously gotten her hands on wasn’tplete, as only half of it


    existed. So, she ended up going to extremes when practicing the moves.


    She desperately needed the other half of the scripture toplete her training and ultimately reach the


    level of grandmaster.


    “Of course, I mean what I say. If you break her leg, I might consider letting you look at it,” Dustin


    said.


    “Don’t listen to his nonsense, Madam Edith! He’s trying to trick you!” Brittany panicked.


    She was worried that Edith might act on the spur of the moment and break her leg.


    “You can say anything you want, brat. But I won’t believe you unless you show me the scripture.”


    Edith’s eyes narrowed. “As long as you can prove to me that you have the Jade Maiden Scripture, I will


    do as you say and break this wench’s leg!”


    “You want proof? That’s simple.” Dustin approached one of the Jade Maiden disciples and took her


    sword, fastened by her waist.


    The sword was unsheathed, and Dustin grabbed at it. Then, he performed a set of sword techniques.


    His moves were agile and graceful. The swordy was fancy but lethal simultaneously.


    Those who watched were impressed and shocked by it.


    “Do you recognize it yet?”


    After demonstrating the swordy routine, he threw the sword into the air. Itnded urately into its


    sheath.


    “It’s the Jade Maiden sword technique! It really is!”


    Edith’s eyes lit up, and her breathing quickened.


    The Jade Maiden sword technique was the ultimate move in the scripture. She had had the chance to


    see her teacher perform it once.


    It was profound and unparalleled.


    She had never thought that she’d be able to see it again at such a ce. It proved that Dustin really


    had the Jade Maiden Scripture.


    “Well, I see that you’ve recognized it. That’s great then,” Dustin said frostily.


    “Now, I want you to break her leg personally!”


    Brittany paled at his words.
