An Understated Dominance

Chapter 896

All attention was fixed on Brittany Cloude at this pivotal moment.

The Jade Girl Sutra held immense significance for the Jade Girl Palace.

Dustin’s condition was a retaliatory strike, demanding that Brittany Cloude’s leg be reciprocally injured.

A vital stipulation was that Edith must execute this herself.

“Listen…”

Nikki was about to intervene, but Dustin’s raised hand halted her, gaze steady on Edith. “Master of the White House, what say you?”

“Brittany Cloude is my foremost disciple. As her master, I cannot inflict harm upon her,” Edith firmly declared.

“Then, the Jade Girl Classic holds no allure for you?” Dustin’s brows arched.

“Of course, I am intrigued. Yet, I shall not comply with your demands.”

Edith’s chin lifted slightly, her tone resolute. “To be plain, I must petition for the Jade Maiden Sutra; furthermore, as Brittany’s mentor, it is incumbent upon me to safeguard her. Now, I command you to relinquish the Jade Maiden Sutra to me. By doing so, I shall pardon your prior impertinence. If not, anticipate a less civil reception!”

Upon hearing this, Dustin’s annoyance was palpable, transformed into an outright laugh.

Fine promises were made earlier, yet in the blink of an eye, they were reneged upon.

And the words were wielded with an overtly domineering attitude, a blatant threat.
