An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 823

There were just slightly more than a thousand people from the alliances. However, the disciples of the Kirin Gang added up to over five thousand people.

Skills aside, just their numbers alone were enough to scare their opponents. Those clamoring to kill Dustin earlier on now kept their mouths shut.

The people from Kirin Gang not only had knives with them. Some of the elites even had firearms.

Unless one was a grandmaster, they could not hold up against those weapons.

"Sir Rhys, are you alright?" Cornelius and a group of elites from Kirin Gang rushed up to Dustin. They formed a circle around him, protecting him from the crowd.

"I'm fine." Dustin shook his head.

If he wished to leave, no one could stop him. But he might have to live with the label of a murderer and be hated by everyone for the rest of his life.

"Dustin! Do you honestly think your underlings can fend off the Hill family's hidden guards?" Spring took a step forward aggressively.

Though the Kirin Gang had the numbers, the hidden guards could easily wipe them all out. Of course, they would also suffer a great loss.

"And it's not just the Hill family's hidden guards! There's also us, elites from the alliance!" Several elders from the alliance stepped forward with stern gazes.

So what if Kirin Gang had the numbers? In the face of true experts, these weaklings amounted to nothing!

"Dustin, surrender yourself if you do not wish to sacrifice innocent lives," Ronald warned.

"Sir Reeds, I have no intention of making an enemy out of everyone." Dustin waved his hand, signaling for the disciples of the Kirin Gang to disperse.

Then, he continued, "I know I'm the prime suspect, but please give me a chance to prove my innocence.

"Sir Paul's death is odd, and there are too many points of suspicion surrounding it. I hope to investigate it."

"Investigate my foot! You're the murderer!" Autumn shouted.

"If I were really the murderer, would I just wait for you to catch me? Wouldn't it be better for me to escape immediately?" Dustin countered.

"Well …" Autumn was at a loss for words.

The rest of the people also exchanged puzzled glances. Things did seem strange.
