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

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.

“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.
