Chapter 1065
“Detain all those who caused trouble today and conduct thorough interrogations,” Scarlet commanded, instructing the tiger and leopard riders to restrain each member of the Cao family.
Such actions were once again astounding.
What was happening?
Weren’t Dustin and the Qilin Gang the ones causing trouble? Why were members of the Cao family being apprehended?
The assailant remained free, while the victim was detained.
What was this?
A sudden calamity?
“Sir! This is unjust! We’ve been wronged!” Trent exclaimed, his voice high-pitched with distress.
“My lord! We haven’t done anything wrong, why are we being arrested?” Kate asked, her expression a mix of shock and fear.
“Yes, my lord! We’re all innocent. If you want to catch someone, go after Dustin!” The members of the Cao family protested in unison, their panic palpable.
It was a case of misfortune striking when one least expected.
They were minding their own business and then, out of nowhere, they were apprehended.
“Regardless of guilt or innocence, I will conduct a thorough investigation, and after the facts emerge, I will draw my own conclusions and take them all into custody,” Scarlet declared, opting not to engage in further discourse as she led them away.
If anyone dared to offend her brother, Torben Hill, they would naturally have to face the consequences.
“This is unjust! It’s completely unjust!” Amidst the cries of injustice, every member of the Cao family was taken away.
The Shangguan and Hill families, along with all the present guests, could only watch, refraining from making any pleas for mercy.
Given Scarlet’s demonstrated strength, anyone who spoke out of turn would likely find themselves arrested as well.
As for the ultimate fate of the Cao family, it was left to destiny. “All unrelated parties should depart,” Scarlet instructed, scanning the area before reiterating, “Go on, now!”
Without hesitation, everyone dispersed.
If the opportunity presented itself, nobody would dare look back or try to retrieve their lost shoes.
“Damn it! This guy is unbelievably lucky, managing to slip away again!” Amidst the crowd, Torben Hill glared at Dustin, his face contorted with reluctance.
“There will be a chance. One day, I’ll avenge your father,” Hill assured his nephew, giving him a reassuring pat on the shoulder before leading his warriors away.
He had a contingency plan in mind for Dustin, but Scarlet’s sudden appearance disrupted his strategy. For now, he would have to retreat and regroup.
“Hurry back and inform the young master!” The several leaders of the Wolf Guard from the Shangguan family exchanged glances before swiftly departing.
In just a few minutes, the once bustling scene involving the Cao family had transformed into a deserted space.
Only Dustin and Scarlet remained.
“Brother Torben!” Scarlet’s demeanor shifted immediately once the others were gone.
Like a girl next door, she happily approached Dustin.
The once stern, solitary, and decisive female warrior of the Dragon Kingdom now exuded youthfulness, vivacity, and a docile demeanor.
Of course, her tenderness was reserved solely for Dustin.
“Girl, you’ve returned so quickly. Has everything in Yanjing been settled?” Dustin smiled warmly. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
He instinctively ruffled Scarlet’s hair, displaying great familiarity.
Yet, it was this gesture that left Zhao Weiwu utterly dumbfounded.
What was going on? He wasn’t mistaken, was he?
In this world, were there actually people who dared to touch the head of the Scarlet God of War?
And what was even more baffling was that the Scarlet God of War not only showed no anger, but also seemed genuinely pleased.
Who on earth was this guy in front of him?
