Inside the living room of the McCall family villa, only Dustin remained seated.

Whoosh!

A sharp sound cut through the air, and a long object shot toward Dustin. With a swift motion, he extended his hand and pinched it between his fingers.

It was a piece of paper.

Two lines of writing were scrawled on it:

[Jonathan McCall intervened and offered a jade pendant. Arthur Williams withdrew reluctantly.]

Dustin's gaze sharpened.

A jade pendant...

Something capable of making even Arthur Williams wary must be significant.

As the paper burned to ashes in his hand, Dustin's face turned contemplative.

The McCall family was not to be underestimated.

Tap, tap...

The soft sound of footsteps came from outside, and Dustin's face quickly returned to normal.

"Mr. Dox..."

Jonathan entered with a smile with his hands clasped behind his back. He was followed closely by Allison.

"I've come to express my deepest gratitude, Mr. Dox, for saving my life," the old man said as he offered a respectful bow.

Dustin rose and returned the gesture.

"It was merely a small favor... There's no need for such formalities."

"This was no mere favor..." Jonathan chuckled warmly. "The Life-Returning Technique is an extraordinary technique. To have a disciple of the Medicine God use it to save me is truly an honor." Dustin's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Grandpapa, are you saying that Mr. Dox is the disciple of the Medicine God?" Allison asked. She was clearly taken aback.

"The Life-Returning Technique is the Medicine God's unique technique. There's no mistaking it.

"For Mr. Dox to use them so effortlessly, he must have surpassed even his master..."

Allison's mouth parted in awe.

The Medicine God was a legendary figure.

He was revered by countless people and held in the highest regard.

But he had vanished many years ago.

Allison had spent time searching for any trace of the Medicine God's disciples but had come up empty-handed.

To think that his disciple had come to their door and saved her grandfather's life... It was almost too dramatic to believe.

"Mr. Dox, thank you for saving my grandfather's life!" She bowed deeply toward Dustin.

"There's no need for such formalities," Dustin said and raised a hand slightly to release a wave of energy to stop her from bowing.

Jonathan's eyes sharpened.

Such control and finesse...

Not just any Martial Saint could accomplish that.

"Mr. Dox, please stay with us for a few more days," said Jonathan and smiled. She looked at Dustin as though he was a rare treasure. How could such an outstanding son-in-law be allowed to leave?

"I came to the McCall family for a medicinal herb," Dustin said in a serious tone. "I've heard that the McCall family possesses a Bloodveil Orchid I wonder if you would be willing to give it to me? I have an urgent need."

"The Bloodyeil Orchid? That's no deal,"

"Plenathan said casually.

"Then, please let me stay for a while." Dustin nodded.

Jonathan immediately sent Allison to arrange accommodation for Dustin.

As Dustin left, Jonathan's smile slowly turned sinister.

"He has to be drugged. We'll do it tonight!" he murmured to himself.

That night, the moon hung brightly in the sky, with only a handful of stars scattered across the sky.

Dustin was preparing to enter the McCall family villa under the cover of darkness.

But before he could make his move, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in."

The door creaked open, and Allison stood in the doorway.

She was wearing a thin, sheer robe that revealed much of her flawless skin. The sight was so captivating that Dustin felt his face tighten, and a surge of heat rose within him.

Allison had an otherworldly beauty. Her looks and figure were truly unparalleled. Every glance and every smile held endless allure.

In her current state, no man could resist her.

Even Dustin was struggling to keep his composure. He quickly channeled his inner energy to steady his mind.

Still, he dared not look at her directly.

"Miss Allison, what is it?" he asked in a calm voice.
