Chapter 1601 by Marina Vittori

“Madam Lynch, are you… You’re not joking, right? Holly… really died?” Allen still couldn’t quite believe it.

Holly was a member of the Celestial Alliance. She was powerful and skilled at reading people. How could she possibly be killed?

“Oh my! Why would I joke about something so serious? My two girls saw it clearly. Holly’s body is upstairs right now. If you don’t believe it, you can send someone to check,” Jennie said, breaking into a cold sweat.

“You two, go up and check!” Allen quickly ordered his henchmen to investigate. Soon, two henchmen rushed downstairs and delivered the same grim news. Holly was indeed dead. She was killed with a single blow.

Upon hearing the news, Allen erupted in anger. His fierce gaze turned toward Dustin, and he sternly said, “You! Do you even realize what you’ve done? You’ll pay for this with your life!”

True to his words, he commanded his men, “Get him! Tear him into pieces and feed him to the dogs!”

Holly’s death couldn’t go unpunished. If they didn’t avenge her today, they would all face consequences. “Attack!”

Without hesitation, the martial artists from the Celestial Alliance charged forward with their weapons.

Dustin emotionlessly raised a hand, and a large number of silver needles shot out from his sleeves, instantly immobilizing all the Celestial Alliance martial artists. Each had a needle stuck in their necks. No matter how they struggled, they couldn’t move an inch.

“What’s happening?” The crowd was baffled. All they could see was the Celestial Alliance martial artists running and suddenly freezing in place, as if under a petrification spell. Truly mysterious.

“Acupoint sealing technique?” Allen frowned as he figured it out.

With a simple wave, Dustin froze over a dozen martial artists. This acupoint sealing technique was truly mysterious. It was something not just any expert could achieve.

“I admit you’ve got some skills, but you’ve offended the entire Celestial Alliance. So, you’re as good as dead!” Allen’s face darkened as he slowly drew his sword from his waist.

“Let me repeat myself, Holly’s death has nothing to do with me. Someone framed me,” Dustin said calmly.

He was well aware of the Celestial Alliance’s reputation. It was one of the three giants in the martial world alongside the Mystic Arts Order and the Sword Union.

If there wasn’t a deep-seated grudge, he didn’t want to be enemies with them. So, he held back earlier to avoid causing harm.

“If you’re framed, then come with me to the Celestial Alliance headquarters. You can explain it there. But before that, you have to surrender!” Allen spoke coldly.

He didn’t believe Dustin, but he wasn’t confident about winning the fight right now. So, he tried to trick Dustin into the Celestial Alliance headquarters.

Once there, Dustin wouldn’t escape death even if he had great skills!

“I’m not one to entrust my life to others, so I can’t agree to your terms,” Dustin replied.

Suddenly, he brought Eleanor and Elena forward, tossing them to Allen’s side. “Holly’s death is linked to these two. The Celestial Alliance won’t have a hard time getting information out of them.”
