An Understated Dominance

“Septemortis?”

Everyone looked wary of the black pill.

It was an extremely poisonous substance. Once consumed, death was certain if one didn’t have the antidote.

No one could resist the poison’s effect, regardless of their cultivation. It was something that struck fear in everyone’s hearts.

“Dustin! If your conscience is clear, then take the pill!” Spring shouted at him.

“That’s right! If you don’t take the pill to show you’re innocent, we won’t let you go!” the Hills clamored.

They weren’t happy to let Dustin go. But now that they had the Septemortis, things were different. No matter what tricks Dustin had up his sleeves, he couldn’t escape death unless he gave them a satisfactory explanation.

“Fine. I’ll take it.” Dustin nodded and placed the pill in his mouth.

“Sir Rhys! No!” Nelson immediately stopped Dustin when he saw what he had done. “This is highly poisonous! You’ll die!”

“If he doesn’t take it, he’ll die too!” Autumn yelled.
