An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

"Oh yeah? Let's wait and see who wins in the end." Dustin smiled faintly, but his eyes conveyed a chilling indifference.

Though he didn't know the identity of these assassins, he could tell they were Dragonmarsh's enemies.

"Hmph! Kid, I hope you don't regret this!" The man in black sneered at Dustin. His expression suggested that Dustin's days were numbered.

To him, Dustin was the epitome of ignorance and arrogance. He was overly dependent on his skills and prone to reckless behavior.

The man in black was convinced that Dustin was unaware that there were always stronger individuals out there. After all, there was always a bigger fish in the sea.

Moreover, Dustin was just a young man in his 20s. So, no matter how talented he was, the man in black knew Dustin couldn't be compared to the renowned Old Beast.

"Whether I regret it or not, you'll find out soon enough. But before that happens, I must deal with the three of you." Dustin slowly approached the three assassins.

"You... What are you going to do with us?" The man in black's face paled. "You better not mess around.

Once our reinforcements arrive, you'll wish you were dead!"

"Why are you so nervous? I'm not going to kill you. At least not until your reinforcements show up," Dustin said and waved his hand.

Three silver needles shot out from his sleeve and accurately hit the three assassins' necks. Instantly, they were rendered immobile.

"Quick! Move faster! Don't let any suspicious individuals get away."

Following the shout, a group of righteous martial artists chasing the assassins returned in full force.

Despite their efforts to surround and capture the assassin, they ended up with nothing, as the assassin escaped by jumping into the river.
