Chapter 823

There were just slightly more than a thousand people from the alliances. However, the disciples of the Kirin Gang

added up to over five thousand people.

Skills aside, just their numbers alone were enough to scare their opponents. Those clamoring to kill Dustin earlier

on now kept their mouths shut.

The people from Kirin Gang not only had knives with them. Some of the elites even had firearms. Unless one was a

grandmaster, they could not hold up against those weapons.

“Sir Rhys, are you alright?” Cornelius and a group of elites from Kirin Gang rushed up to Dustin. They formed a

circle around him, protecting him from the crowd.

“I’m fine.” Dustin shook his head.

If he wished to leave, no one could stop him. But he might have to live with the label of a murderer and be hated by

everyone for the rest of his life.

“Dustin! Do you honestly think your underlings can fend off the Hill family’s hidden guards?” Spring took a step

forward aggressively.

Though the Kirin Gang had the numbers, the hidden guards could easily wipe them all out. Of course, they would

also suffer a great loss.

“And it’s not just the Hill family’s hidden guards! There’s also us, elites from the alliance!” Several elders from the

alliance stepped forward with stern gazes.

So what if Kirin Gang had the numbers? In the face of true experts, these weaklings amounted to nothing!

“Dustin, surrender yourself if you do not wish to sacrifice innocent lives,” Ronald warned.

“Sir Reeds, I have no intention of making an enemy out of everyone.” Dustin waved his hand, signaling for the

disciples of the Kirin Gang to disperse.

Then, he continued, “I know I’m the prime suspect, but please give me a chance to prove my innocence.

“Sir Paul’s death is odd, and there are too many points of suspicion surrounding it. I hope to investigate it.”

“Investigate my foot! You’re the murderer!” Autumn shouted.

“If I were really the murderer, would I just wait for you to catch me? Wouldn’t it be better for me to escape

immediately?” Dustin countered.

“Well…” Autumn was at a loss for words.

The rest of the people also exchanged puzzled glances. Things did seem strange.

“Hmph! Maybe you were just trying to luck out, hoping we wouldn’t find you!” Torben said.

“Fine! Then tell me, who would leave behind a weapon that carried their identity after killing someone? Do you think

I’m that stupid?” Dustin challenged.

That was enough to shut Torben up. Even the crowd also seemed to show a thoughtful expression.

They had only followed what others said without giving it much thought. Their anger had completely clouded their

judgment.

Now that Dustin pointed it out, there were indeed many points of suspicion.

“What you said makes sense, but that doesn’t prove your innocence. You were the only one present when my

father died!” Spring said frostily

“That’s why I said I need time to prove my innocence. I will certainly find out who the real murderer is!” Dustin said

solemnly.

“How long will you need?”

“Seven days,” Dustin blurted. “I’ll uncover the truth within seven days!”

“Fine! I’ll give you seven days. If you can’t prove you’re innocent by then, be prepared to face the consequences!”

Ronald declared.

“Sure!” Dustin agreed.

“Sir Reeds! What are you doing? This is the man who assassinated my father!” Autumn lost his cool.

“There’s something fishy going on. We need to get to the bottom of things. If he really is the murderer, I’ll kill him

to avenge Sir Paul!” Ronald said sombrely.

“Sir Reeds, what if he escapes?” Autumn frowned.

“That’s right! How will we find him if he escapes?” Torben echoed.

“If I set my heart on killing someone, they won’t be able to escape death, no matter where they run to!” Ronald

said coldly.

“There’s no need for such hassle.” Conrad stepped forward.

He said with a smile, “This here is a Septemortis. If you don’t take the antidote within seven days, you’ll surely die.

You can have this.”

Then, with a flick of his finger, he sent a black pill flying toward Dustin. It landed squarely on his palm.

Septemortis was one of the ten deadliest poisons to ever exist. It was capable of poisoning even grandmasters!
