AN UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE - Season 22 Episode 89

Aurora paced anxiously while Brian and Kenan whispered to each other. She wanted to ask questions but held back, worried it might distract Dustin and interfere with Alicia’s treatment.

At that moment, Grace stood silently by Dustin’s side and acted as his guardian.

As time passed, Alicia looked visibly uncomfortable and began sweating profusely. The black mist gradually surrounded her, and it soon enveloped Dustin.

Time dragged on until he finally opened his eyes and took a deep breath. A vortex of true energy swirled in his mouth as he absorbed the surrounding black mist. His complexion shifted from pale to flushed, and he frowned deeply.

Dustin absorbed most of the voodoo from Alicia’s body. Despite his strong cultivation and incredible resilience, he still felt the strain. Afterward, he placed his palms on her back.

She suddenly raised her head and spat out a mouthful of black blood before collapsing onto the bed.

“Alicia!” Brian’s expression changed as he rushed to check on her, but Grace blocked him.

“Dr. Rhys is treating her. No one is allowed to interfere,” she said coldly.

“Treating her? He just made her cough up blood. Move aside!” Brian shouted.

“She was expelling poisonous blood. This will speed up her recovery.”

“This is nonsense!” he said, seething. Alicia’s life is invaluable. If anything goes wrong, you will face the repercussions!”

“If you want her to recover, step back and let Dr. Rhys do his job.”

“Of course, I want her to recover. But I don’t trust this kid. Who knows what he’s up to?”

“I’m warning you for the last time. Back off, or you’ll regret it.”

“Hmph! Who are you to threaten me? Do you have any idea how easily I could kill you?” Brian glared at her menacingly.

“Try if you want,” Grace said indifferently.

“You’re asking for trouble!”

Just as Brian was about to make a move, Aurora suddenly stepped between them. “What’s going on? Alicia’s in critical condition, and you want to fight?” she scolded.

“Aurora, those treatments aren’t helping. He’s already made Alicia cough up blood. If this continues, she’ll die,” Brian said, trying to incite her.

Aurora glanced at Dustin, and for a moment, doubt flickered in her eyes. Yet, she swiftly reaffirmed her stance. ” I’ve brought Dr. Rhys here because I believe in his expertise. If anything goes wrong, I’ll take full responsibility.

She had placed all her hopes on Dustin and knew there was no turning back.

“Aurora…” Brian’s expression darkened.

He was ready to protest, but Aurora silenced him. “Enough! Alicia is my sister, and I’ll be the one to decide.”

“You must be out of your mind!” He sighed and was exasperated by her resolve. Yet, he reluctantly relented after seeing her unwavering determination.

Dustin ignored the troublesome Brian and focused on suppressing the raging voodoo within him. He lifted Alicia’s head with one hand and gave her the tablet he had prepared earlier.

The tablet wasn’t a conventional antidote but a poison. Given the urgency, the only way to counteract the voodoo was through poison-induced therapy.

He planned to use a risky technique involving two different poisons. By letting the poisons battle inside her body, they would neutralize each other quickly.

However, this method was dangerous, as a single mistake could be fatal. Dustin had to continuously use his mystical pure energy to protect Alicia’s pulse and prevent severe damage.

Once the poisons had nearly neutralized each other, he was ready to make his final move.

An ordinary doctor couldn’t manage such a complex procedure. Only someone of Dustin’s ultimate grandmaster caliber could attempt such a daring treatment.

As he had predicted, the poison and the voodoo in Alicia’s body clashed violently. They began to devour each other and caused her circulatory pathways and blood vessels to rupture. Consequently, Alicia’s nose started to bleed.

Despite his powerful true energy, Dustin couldn’t keep Alicia completely unscathed. He could only protect her main circulatory pathways as much as possible to prevent severe injury.

Ultimately, Alicia’s life depended on her will to survive.
