Chapter 399


    Two shots were fired, but the bullets came to a halt one inch before Dustin’s body. A protective energy


    sphere crystallized in the air, forming a shield against the bullet.


    “What?” Edwin’s pupils wavered in shock. He was mentally prepared for Dustin’s prowess but was grea


    tly taken aback at how Dustin stopped the bullets in the air.


    “Did you believe that you could hurt me with bullets?” Dustin shook his head.


    “If I can’t hurt you with a gun, I’ll die with


    you!” Suddenly, Edwin pulled out the remote control for the bomb andughed deliriously. “Dustin Rhys


    , see you in hell!”


    With that, he pressed the button on the control.


    Meanwhile, Dahlia was on the run with James. They were some distance away from the vi before he


    aring the two gunshots. They spun around and realized that Dustin had not followed after them.


    “Dustin?” Losing herposure, Dahlia frantically mbered toward the vi.


    “Hey! Why are you turning back? Do you want to die?” Florence quickly pulled her daughter back. “Mo


    m! Dustin is still in there! He might be in danger. I need to help him!” Dahlia’s heart was in her mouth.


    “And what good will that be? Sir Hummer has a gun and bombs with him. You’re running toward your d


    eath!” Florence grabbed Dahlia tightly, refusing to let go.


    “What do we do about Dustin?” Dahlia was a mess at that moment.


    “He’s the one who started the trouble, so he deserves what’sing for him! It’s none of our business!”


    Florence reminded Dahlia sternly.


    “Mom! What’s that nonsense? Dustin saved James just now! Can you stop being selfish?” Dahlia furiou


    sly shook off Florence’s grip and sprinted toward the vi. At the same time, they heard a huge explosiv

    e sound that shook the terrain. An explosion tore the vi into rubble, filling the surroundings with billowi


    ng ck smoke and blinding fires.


    “Dustin?” She stared nkly at the ruins of the vi, clueless about what to do next. Could a human po


    ssibly survive the explosion if the entire vi was reduced to rubble?


    “How did that happen? How?” Dahlia, ashen–


    faced, looked like she was struck by lightning. Finally, she copsed onto the ground, wailing and cryin


    g her heart out.


    “Hey, why are you howling here?” She heard a familiar voice that sent a chill down her spine. When sh


    e looked up in astonishment, she found Dustin standing in front of her. He emerged from the


    rubble unhurt.


    “Are you not dead? How could that be?” Bewildered, she looked at him nkly. The impact and heat fr


    om the explosion had melted steel. She could not figure out how a human survived the incident.


    “Why are you shocked that I’m alive?” He gave her a funny look.


    “You’re alive! That’s great!” Sobbing in joy, she threw herself into his embrace, wrapping her arms tightl


    y around his waist and refusing to let go, as though she feared he might vanish.
