It was obvious that someone was trying to frame Dustin for James‘ death, but who? Was it the Doyle family or the Grant family? Or perhaps someone he had never met before. And why would they do this? Were they trying to turn Dahlia against him?
Dustin stared at the black needle he was holding. He wanted to explain everything to Dahlia but stopped himself. He knew that in her current state, she would never believe him.
Besides, all he had was the needle, which wasn’t enough to prove anything. He would only be able to prove his innocence when he found the real killer.
Just then, the sound of the phone ringing tore through the air. Dustin fished out his phone and
saw that it was Nelson.
“Hello? Great timing, Nelson. There’s something I need you to-”
Before Dustin could finish what he wanted to say, a panicked voice rang out. “We’re in trouble, Sir!”
“What’s happening?” Dustin frowned.
“A bunch of martial artists just randomly barged into our dojo and began beating our men up. They are ruthless! Our men have no chance of stopping these people, so please save us!” Nelson pleaded desperately.
“Hang on. I’m on my way!” Dustin hùng up and immediately made his way to the Flame Dragon Dojo. As the gang’s leader, there was no way he could just ignore this.
After half an hour, Dustin finally arrived at the Flame Dragon Dojo, where a bunch of his disciples were sprawled out on the floor.
Foreign martial artists clad in dark clothes had completely taken over the place. Even the Four Guardians, who were fairly strong, were pinned under their feet, unable to move at all, while
Nelson was shaking where he knelt on the ground.
“Sir!” Nelson was overjoyed when he saw Dustin and struggled to stand up. However, he was kicked in the back by a bearded man and fell back onto the ground.
“Are you the leader of the Flame Dragon Gang?” The bearded man rose to his feet slowly, his expression arrogant.
“I am. And who are you?” Dustin asked.
“The name’s Malcom. Bennet Malcom. I’m the Doyle family’s envoy, and I was ordered to capture you.” Bennet answered calmly.
“Bennet Malcom?” The Flame Dragon Gang immediately paled when they heard this. Bennet Malcom, otherwise known as Maniac, was a Divine–level martial artist who also happened to be Terry Doyle’s right–hand man. He was notorious for winning all duels people challenged him with, regardless of his opponents‘ level. His methods were also brutal to the point that his opponents either ended up dead or critically injured, which was why the mere mention of his name was enough to throw Nelson and the others into a state of frenzy.

Besides being insanely powerful, Bennet also had the support of the Doyle family, making him
untouchable.
“The Doyle family again?” Dustin raised an eyebrow. “You guys really don’t know when to give up,
do you?”
First, it had been Duncan, now, it was their family envoy. They seem to really have their eyes set on Dustin
The Flame Dragon Gang belongs to Mr. Doyle in the first place, yet you killed Harry Hall and took over the gang without permission. Your actions have made Mr. Doyle very angry. He has ordered. me to take you in for questioning. You better behave to save yourself from the pain.” Bennet threatened coolly.
“Enough with the chit–chat, Bennet. Arrest that fucker. I want my revenge!” Right then, a young woman with a clenched jaw limped her way out of the crowd.
“It’s you?” Dustin narrowed his eyes as he immediately recognized the woman, who was none other than Maggie Doyle, whom he had met during yesterday’s car accident.
