An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1142

The hall fell silent as everyone witnessed Diego’s head explode. Caden’s shouting came to an abrupt

halt, while Vivian, Evan, and the rest of their group were dumbstruck.

Everything had happened so rapidly that they could not react for a moment. Even with Diego using a

hostage as a shield and guarded by elite assassins, Dustin still achieved a one-hit kill. It was truly

horrifying.

As Diego’s headless corpse fell with a dull thud, Dustin grabbed a confused Sheila by the shoulder. He

pulled her out of the encirclement and tossed her back to the Murray camp. Finally, Sheila was safe.

“Diego!” Antonio’s expression contorted in fury as he looked at his grandson’s dead body. He roared in

a thunderous rage, “You bastard! How dare you kill my grandson? I’ll tear you to pieces! Kill him! KILL

HIM!”

At his command, a horde of elite assassins rushed forward. They hurled their concealed arsenal of

poisoned darts and throwing blades. It was a relentless assault. The tight- knit barrage resembled a

ferocious storm that left little room for defense.

Simultaneously, the assassins employed diverse tactics. Some leaped high into the air, deploying iron

wire nets, while others emerged underground to mount ambushes.

In an instant, Dustin found himself the primary target of an overwhelming and unrelenting onslaught.

“Assist him! Wipe out all of the Kimbokuan assassins!” Christopher ordered immediately. The Murray

family’s rigorously honed kill team didn’t hold back, either. They charged into the battle.

Soon, both sides were once again engaged in a chaotic battle. However, this time, the situation was

completely different. The Murray family’s kill team was already inherently strong. With Dustin’s backing,

they became an even more formidable force.

In mere moments, they had eliminated enough Kimbokuan assassins to leave them in disarray.

“Excellent! Well done!” The crowd surged with excitement at the sight.

“Damn it!” Antonio cursed. Unable to hold back any longer, he stepped forcefully onto the ground. He

turned into a ghostly shadow and launched himself right into the middle of the fray.

With extremely quick movements, his palms struck down repeatedly. Every strike of his resulted in the

death of one black-clad member of the kill team.

“You impudent old dog!” Christopher erupted in anger and wanted to join in the battle. However, his

body shuddered as he coughed up blood once more. He wasn’t even able to steady himself. His

injuries were so serious that he wasn’t able to engage in further combat.

“This is bad! If the fight goes on, we might end up losing!” Lily was anxious. Antonio’s appearance had

completely reversed the situation.

“As Kimboku’s Sword Sage, Antonio is too strong. With Dad injured, no one can stop him now. Our only

option is to temporarily retreat,” Caden said with a solemn expression.

“Retreat? Are you suggesting… we abandon our home?” Lily frowned.

“We can only make a comeback if we remain alive.” Caden looked around and whispered, Gather a

few people and get Dad out of here silently. We mustn’t alert Antonio.

“Your father would never agree to make a retreat, considering his personality.” Lily shook her head. “I

don’t care how you do it, even if you have to knock him unconscious. Just make sure to get him out of

here!” Caden insisted.

He knew that as long as Christopher was alive, the Murrays would be able to rebuild their legacy

“Alright, I’ll give it a try,” Lily nodded reluctantly.

“Wait! If we leave, what about Dustin and our men?” Sheila suddenly spoke up. On the front lines,

Dustin was leading the fight. The situation was extremely dangerous. “We can’t think about that right

now. They’ll have to rely on themselves,” Caden said decisively.

“Dad! Dustin and our men are out there trying to rescue us. How can you just abandon them like that

and run away? You’ve gone too far.” Sheila frowned.

“You foolish girl! We should take care of ourselves first. Our lives are at stake! We can’t afford to think

about them!” Caden was getting anxious.

Time was running out. If they delayed it any further, they would be next once Antonio had dealt with

Dustin and the others.

“No! I’m not going!” Sheila shook her head repeatedly.

“Dustin just saved me. I can’t leave him behind and run away!”

“You’re being naïve!” Caden was getting increasingly worried. “They won’t be able to hold on for much

longer. We won’t be able to escape later if we don’t leave now!”
