Instantly, silence ensued.
Looking at the lupine guards who had drawn their last breath,
everyone was so terrified that they were lost for words. They couldn't
believe that all nine guards had lost their lives because of Dustin's
stomp.
When Jayla came back to her senses, she blew up at once and shouted,
"How dare you kill my lupine guards!"
Each and every one of the lupine guards had been carefully trained by
the Grant family. Now that ten of them were dead, how could Jayla
possibly put up with it?
"It won't end with just their deaths; you are going to pay back for
what you did!" With a cold expression on his face, Dustin slowly walked
closer to Jayla, his eyes darkening.
"W-what do you want to do? I'm warning you; don't do anything
absurd!" Jayla took two steps back in fright.
As if she felt that it was embarrassing to retreat, she stopped at
once and held her head high, putting on an arrogant look.
She was the daughter of the Grant family. Why was she afraid of
someone like Dustin?
"You've got to pay back twice the harm you've inflicted on Natasha!"
Dustin threatened.
"Don't you dare!" Jayla shot daggers at him. "I have the Grants
behind me. If you lay a finger on me, even a divine being can't save
you!"
"Really?" Suddenly, Dustin grabbed Jayla by the neck and lifted her
off the floor.
Kicking her legs frantically, Jayla began to cough violently. She
struggled to break free from his grip but failed. It was getting
difficult for her to breathe. Soon, the fear of death gradually flooded
her mind.
"L-let me go! Or else, you're going to have a miserable death!" Jayla
shouted.
"Dustin, don't hurt her!" Right then, Natasha couldn't help but stop
him.
Although she hated Jayla, the latter wasn't someone who could be
easily provoked. If Jayla was hurt, it would lead to the Grant family
seeking revenge on them.
"She's too arrogant. She will only continue to overstep the mark if
she is not taught a lesson." Dustin tightened his grip around Jayla's
neck.
Jayla's face flushed; she couldn't breathe.
"Stop!" A loud shout suddenly came from the door.
712
Everyone was dumbfounded at the sight before them. Elton was an
extremely formidable existence, but now he had been killed by Dustin in
just one move.
It was simply hard to believe!
"H-how is this even possible?" Looking at Elton's corpse, Jayla was
stunned. Her face was
full of disbelief.
"That was the powerful leader of the lupine guards, and now he's
dead?" she muttered
inwardly.
"How dare you kill our leader?"
"Today is going to be your death day!"
After recovering from their shock, the remaining nine lupine guards
flew off the handle and surged forward at him with their weapons drawn.
Expressionless, Dustin stomped his foot all of a sudden.
With a loud boom, the floor cracked the next second. A burst of
violent true energy then presented itself in an instant and smashed
fiercely onto the guards.
As if they had been knocked down by a train, the lupine guards were
sent flying across the air, blood gushing out of their mouths. All it
took was a stomp, and every one of the lupine guards died before they
could even land on the floor.
Instantly, silence ensued.
Looking at the lupine guards who had drawn their last breath,
everyone was so terrified that they were lost for words. They couldn't

neck.
Jayla's face flushed; she couldn't breathe.
"Stop!" A loud shout suddenly came from the door.
The next second, Jacob rushed in fiercely with a group of elites from
the Harmon family.
When he saw the lupine guards lying dead on the floor, his expression
changed at once." Dustin, let go of Ms. Grant immediately! Stop making
mistakes!"
"She has disfigured Natasha's face, not to mention the barrage of
insults. Today she has to be given a tit-for-tat," Dustin said coldly.
Shifting his gaze to Natasha, whose face was covered in blood, Jacob
couldn't help frowning. After a moment's hesitation, he bit the bullet
and said, "Don't worsen the situation, Dustin.
first!"
Let her go
"Let her go?" Dustin turned around. "As an elder, aren't you supposed
to protect Natasha? She has been severely injured, and now you're telling
me to free the perpetrator?"
"You can't afford to offend Ms. Grant. Don't drag us down!" Jacob
shouted.
"That's right! Let go of Ms. Grant now!" The rest of the Harmons
echoed.
Jayla was Tyler's sister. If something bad were to happen to her
here, the entire Harmon family was going to suffer the consequences.
"What if I refuse?" Dustin narrowed his eyes.
"Don't force me to attack you!" Jacob's face fell.
Most of the people with him slowly drew their weapons, their gazes
filled with hostility. In an instant, Dustin ended up being their target.
At the sight of that, Jayla laughed complacently. "Rhys, do you see
this? Even the Harmons have no guts to offend me. Get your hands off of
me right now! Who do you think you are to mess with me?"
No matter how strong a fighter was, in front of the powerful Grant
family, they would still
have to bow down to them.
"Are you going to stand by and do nothing when your family member has
been attacked? Is the Harmon family so weak?" Dustin glanced around with
a piercing gaze.
Those who met his eyes couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
