“Hmm?” Allen slightly frowned as he looked at Eleanor and Elena.
“No … It’s not our fault. We didn’t do anything. We’re innocent!” Elena fearfully shook her head as she tried to
explain.
“Mr. Bosman, we’re friends with Holly. How could we harm her? Please don’t let lies deceive you!” Eleanor cried.
Then, she pointed at Dustin, “It’s all him! He killed Holly and shifted the blame to us. We’re defenseless girls. We
couldn’t fight back. Please, Mr. Bosman, stand up for us! Stand up for Holly!”

as scapegoats?”
“I speak the truth. Their hearts are more malicious than you can imagine. You’ll only harm yourself and others if
you trust them,” Dustin warned.
“Nonsense!” Allen glared at him and shouted, “Everyone saw you kill Holly. How dare you argue? It seems you
won’t confess until there’s bloodshed!”
Without a word, Allen charged at Dustin. His sword sliced through the air toward Dustin’s head. Still, Dustin didn’t

Allen seemed to have anticipated the attack. He seized the chance when the blade shattered and swiftly aimed

Just when it seemed Dustin was in danger, he suddenly extended two fingers and effortlessly caught the blade
between them.
“What?” Allen was stunned, utterly incredulous. His blade was sharp, yet Dustin easily caught it between two
fingers. How unbelievable!
“I have limited patience. Don’t lay a hand on me again, or I won’t be so kind, “Dustin said coldly.

“I know you’re tough, but someone has to be responsible for Holly’s death. You’re not leaving this place today!”
Allen persisted, his long knife deflecting Dustin’s fingers and then slashing toward his waist.
“You underestimate me!” Dustin snorted and swiftly delivered a palm strike to Allen’s chest.

The crowd was astonished at the sight. No one expected Dustin to be this strong. He could even take down a group
of Celestial Alliance aces single- handedly.
As everyone exchanged puzzled looks, a frightening pressure suddenly loomed over them.
