“Mr. Caden, are you threatening me?” Dustin’s smile disappeared after hearing those harsh words.
From the start, he had been displeased with Caden. He disliked that he was untrustworthy and never
stayed faithful to his promises.
“It’s a warning if you heed my advice; It’s a threat if you don’t,” Caden admitted without reservations.
“Let me repeat myself. Sheila and I are just friends; I’ve never had ulterior motives.
“It’s best that we don’t interfere in each other’s business,” Dustin stated calmly. “Brat, it seems like you
still don’t get it.
“Caden’s expression was frosty. “What makes an utterly worthless character like you think that you are
worthy of being friends with my daughter? Please take a look in the mirror and have a clear look at
yourself.
“The Murray family is not a place for opportunistic freeloaders like yourself.”
What was once a threat had now turned into a blatant insult. “Caden Murray. Don’t be so full of
yourself. You better drop your cocky attitude.” Dustin returned the sentiment.
“Hmph! You have quite the attitude for someone of your level. Do you think I can’t deal with someone

“You better not try anything unless you want trouble for yourself,” Dustin warned. While it wasn’t in his
nature to provoke others, he would respond the same when provoked.
“You brat! No one has ever talked to me that way! Since you are so ungrateful, don’t regret when I take
action!”
Caden bellowed with a grim expression, “Men, this young man harmed Roxanne and caused her to be
hospitalized. The evidence is clear; seize him!”
As soon as he spoke, the armed guards standing by the door surrounded Dustin in no time. “You’re
going to accuse me falsely?” Dustin frowned.
“I I gave you a chance. But you didn’t appreciate it. It’s too late now!” Caden smirked. Seeing the
approaching guards, Dustin waved his hand, and silver needles shot out..
Following the sound of sharp whistles, the guards were left frozen to their spots. It was like they were
petrified. “Oh?” Caden was surprised by the turn of events. “You’ve got some skills. No wonder you’re
so arrogant. But it’s a pity that I’m your opponent today!”
With that, he suddenly moved, reaching out to grab Dustin. His fingers were just like iron that emanated
a black glow. It was laced with deadly poison. When he extended his claw-like fingers, it was
surrounded by a swirl of dark energy and carried a chilling coldness.
“What?” Dustin’s eyes widened. As he dodged, he exclaimed, “Wait! Are you practicing the Soul
Devouring Technique?”
“What about it? You’re scared already?
Caden sneered.
“And I thought you had skills. You’re just a loser who bullies the weak and fears the strong!”
“For Sheila’s sake, I don’t wish to hurt you. The Soul Devouring Technique is a dark art. It not only
harms you, but also the people around you.
“You’d better stop practicing it. Otherwise, you’ll die a terrible death once you go to extremes!” Dustin
warned seriously.
He didn’t notice it earlier. But upon closer inspection, he can now see Caden enveloped by a deathly
air. He was on the brink of death with his energy in severe imbalance.

Within three to five days, the side effects of the Soul Devouring Technique would appear. By then, there
would be unimaginable consequences.
“Do you think I will believe in your nonsense? You’re just a coward spouting nonsense after realizing
you can’t win!” Caden said dismissively. His cultivation had rapidly improved since he started practicing
the Soul Devouring Technique, and he was now a semi-grandmaster.
No one could match his strength within the Murray family other than the eccentric old man who rarely
showed himself. He was drunk on the power that he felt.
“Although the Soul Devouring Technique is powerful, it has severe side effects. This dark art drains
your life force.
“If I guessed right, you have been experiencing nightmares and waking up sweaty. You feel chills
running down your spine, and you are unusually thirsty in the middle of the night.
“The point is, your thirst can only be quenched by blood. The more you train in this art, the greater your
bloodlust!” Dustin said darkly.
Caden was taken aback and in shock. ” How did you know that?” He never told anyone he was drinking
blood. How did Dustin find out?
“Don’t forget, I’m a doctor. I saved your daughter from her strange illness.
