Chapter 642

The group of masked women brandished a knife and held it dangerously close to Dahlia’s neck; a thin

line of blood could be seen on her skin. It was a warning that Dahlia would be killed on the spot if

Dustin made any sudden movements.

Dustin furrowed his brow and ultimately released his grip. He wasn’t going to risk Dahlia’s life with the

numbers they had.

“That’s more like it.” Astrid stretched her neck. She looked triumphant as she said, “Dustin, you should

feel honored that my mentor has taken an interest in you. As long as you agree, we will be a family

going forward. And if you refuse, you and everyone else around you will die!”

“Do you have to go to such extremes?” Dustin’s expression was frosty.

This is how we do things. If we can’t get our hands on a talented genius like you, you must be

destroyed,” Astrid responded.

“Do you really think you can kill me?” Dustin retorted.

Astrid chuckled as she said, “I know you’re talented, but we came prepared. I added Trangurin to the

tea you drank earlier. The poison is colorless and tasteless. Once ingested, your body will feel. weak,

and you won’t even be able to use your true energy. Judging by the time, you should be feeling its

effects right about now.”

“Tranqurin?” Dustin’s expression shifted.

Tranqurin was one of the ten exotic medicines of the martial world. Although it wasn’t deadly, it was the

bane of many martial artists. It suppressed their true energy and weakened their bodies. These two

effects of Tranqurin were enough to put any martial artist in despair. He didn’t expect

Astrid to get a hold of it when it was nearly extinct.

“Give me the antidote!” Dustin reached out to grab Astrid but stumbled and nearly fell. Before he knew

it, sweat started to form on his forehead.

“Tranqurin is specifically meant to restrain expert martial artists like you. The more you exert

true energy, the faster the medicine takes effect. How about it? Do you feel it already?” Astrid

grinned.

To put Dustin under their control, the Dark Lord employed his precious treasure, which highlighted

Dustin’s value.

“Dustin, I’m going to ask you one more time. Are you going to submit to us or not?” Astrid yelled.

“Dream on!” Dustin forced himself to remain upright.

“Hmph! You’re still talking back? Are you not afraid of death?” Astrid’s expression darkened. She was

out of patience. If it weren’t for the Dark Lord valuing him greatly, Astrid would have killed him much

earlier instead of wasting her time persuading him.

“Although Tranqurin is powerful, I still have enough strength to make sure we die together!” Dustin spat

out coldly.

“You-!” Astrid was seething in anger. Just as she was about to make a move on Dahlia, a graceful

figure descended from the second floor.

“Astrid, this guy is too stubborn. You won’t get anywhere by using force. Why don’t you let me talk to

him?” Azalea walked up to Dustin seductively.

“Azalea, you’ll be able to persuade him?” Astrid raised an eyebrow.

“Have you forgotten what I’m best at, Astrid?” Azalea smiled.

“Alright, go ahead and try.” Astrid nodded.

Azalea was not only good at Face-Changing Art, but she was also skilled at the Art of Charming. She

could make any man fall for her charms.

“Hey, doctor. We meet again.” Azalea took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Dustin’s

forehead. “Does it feel bad? How about we go up and have a rest?”

“Cut the crap!” Dustin pushed her hand aside and uttered coldly, “I will never collude with you. people!”

“Why are you making this so hard, doctor?” Azalea sighed lightly. “If you join us and become my junior,

we’ll be together forever. Wouldn’t that be great?”

“What utter rubbish!” Dustin glared at her. “You want me to join you after I’ve witnessed you using such

underhanded methods? Dream on!”

“I know my actions have been impudent, but I have no other choice. I cherish you a lot, and I’d do

anything for you,” Azalea smiled as she said.

Dustin sneered. “If that is so, kill Astrid first, then!”

“No problem.” With a smile still on her face, Azalea suddenly drew her sword and stabbed Astrid’s

chest.
