Several suited men ran over to help carry Sebastian onto the sofa."How do you feel, Mr. Shields Senior?" Zeke gave Cillian a towel."I feel much better! I feel as if I'm 20 years younger!" Cillian stood up excitedly and took the towel. "What's happened to Sebastian?" Cillian asked in confusion when he saw that the front of Sebastian's shirt was covered in blood and that he looked ashen."Mr. Shields Senior, that's all thanks to Marius!" Liam exclaimed angrily."Shut up!" Wyatt glared at his grandson."What's going on?" Cillian asked coldly. His eyes widened, and his expression grew thunderous. "Mr. Shields Senior, Dr. Chesney really is a genius." As soon as Zeke spoke, the Depps and several suited men glared angrily at him."Huh? What do you mean?" Cillian asked, frowning."Mr. Ballard used a technique called an ancient energy needle. I've heard that if the needle is plucked out during the process, or if anything happens to the person using the needle, the patient is sure t
"This is a book on traditional medicine. You'd better keep hold of it, because your life depends on it," Gavin said. He grabbed Marius by the collar and dragged him down the stairs.Sebastian was drifting in and out of consciousness when he felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. He opened his eyes, but all he could feel was an aching numbness in his body. He couldn't move at all."Sebastian!""Sebastian!""Young man!" Cillian, the Depps, and the Holmans immediately crowded around him in concern when they saw that Sebastian was awake.Liam had already run swiftly off to the office building ahead of them, while Zeke had called the best hospital in Sunway."How do you feel?" Alexander asked in concern."I'm alright, just a little tired." Sebastian wasn't afraid that they would worry. He really did feel rather exhausted.After coughing up the blood several times, Sebastian felt as if he had made a breakthrough in his training, which had been at a bottleneck for some time now.Per
"Leave it to us, miss." Two of the men in suits carefully helped Sebastian up to the lounge on the second floor. They put him on the bed before turning to leave."You silly thing. You almost scared me to death!" Rosalie pummeled Sebastian's chest lightly. Liam had called her in a panic and told her about Sebastian coughing up blood. She had almost fainted on the spot."Perhaps I'm just too tired. I want to sleep for a while," Sebastian said, smiling tiredly. "Go ahead. Take your clothes off and I'll wash them for you."Sebastian nodded, smiling. He took off his bloodstained shirt with difficulty and handed it to Rosalie. Before she could say anything, he fell deeply asleep.…Meanwhile, Cillian was pacing up and down the hall. He was obviously still angry about Marius."People like him should be shot dead!" he yelled angrily, getting angrier as he spoke. Finally, he slammed the table hard."Mr. Shields Senior, he's your personal doctor. In those circumstances, we…" Gavin hun
Although Cillian was now old, he had been among the best in the army in his younger years.Every punch, kick, and dodge that Sebastian had made had been perfect. Cillian had been able to see that at once."That may be so, but I—""He is very young and very dangerous." Cillian said meaningfully, "Young people can be impulsive, and I am worried that he'll make an unforgivable mistake. Do you understand?"Gavin finally understood. He now knew that Cillian wanted to take care of Sebastian, who was an amazing talent.With Sebastian's skills, he would either stay completely out of trouble or end up making a disastrous mistake."Yes! I assure you that I will complete my mission!" Gavin saluted Cillian."Zeke!""Yes, Mr. Shields Senior!""I remember you telling me that this young man was very skilled in medicine. You must take care to nurture his abilities, but make sure not to spoil him.""I assure you that I will complete my mission!" Zeke promised, just as Gavin had.Cillian nodd
"You rascal!" Cillian said, laughing. "You aren't efficient in your work, yet you have the audacity to ask me for a position?""Mr. Shields Senior, I'd be willing to never get promoted," Zeke said firmly.Cillian threw back his head and laughed as he said, "You'll have to be promoted. You've been pretending to be a corrupt official for so many years, and you must have suffered many misunderstandings. However, our country will reward those who are loyal."Zeke looked relieved."Mr. Shields Senior, what I've done is nothing compared to you." A few tears rolled down Zeke's face.He owed everything he had to Cillian, but ever since he had taken on the position of chief director at Steinberg Pharma, he had gained a reputation for being extremely corrupt.However, every penny he embezzled had been secretly submitted straight to the country's reserves, and everything he had done was so that he could complete the mission that Cillian had given him many years ago.That was only the way h
Vince was worried that Liam would beat Marius to death. If he did, then Vince would find it very hard to explain things to Cillian."Chief Weist, you're not asking me to go to the special forces team and get a special letter of interrogation, are you?"Liam's eyes had turned red. Marius was a total asshole who had almost killed Cillian. Cillian was Liam's idol, and he had even saved Wyatt's life in the past. If Liam didn't teach him a lesson, he would not be able to live with himself."Well… you're quite the jokester, Mr. Holman. Of course, we don't need a special letter of interrogation."Liam's eyes flickered when he saw Vince's awkward expression. He immediately understood. "Chief Weist, I think you've misunderstood Mr. Shields Senior's intentions. He handed Marius over to you for interrogation because the guards aren't able to torture Marius.""Mr. Holman, are you saying that…" Vince's heart jolted—what Liam was saying made sense.After all, Marius was Cillian's personal do
"Statement? You can write that when I've thought about what to ask him. Let's take a rest, everyone. We've been working all day, and you must be exhausted," Liam said and stretched. He had had an excellent day beating Marius up.If he hadn't been worried about exhausting his special forces team members, he would have continued the interrogation for another day."You'll… ask him when you've thought about it?" The special forces team members were flabbergasted.Liam hadn't even thought about what to ask, but he had tortured Marius for more than ten hours! What on earth had Marius done?The special forces team members were about to go and rest when Liam reached out and pulled out two cages from under the table."W-Why did you get two rats?" Rosalie was afraid that Liam would go overboard and kill Marius.Liam ignored her. He casually grabbed a generator-like device and connected it to a wire under the cage.Immediately, the rats began running madly in the wheel inside the cage. On
Gavin had to ensure that Sebastian remained healthy and alive.Liam narrowed his eyes as he stared at Gavin's retreating figure. He seemed to be thinking about something."What are you looking at?" Rosalie looked disdainfully at Liam and stepped a few feet away from him."I-I-I'm straight!" Liam was an intelligent man, and he immediately knew what Rosalie was thinking.Seeing that Sebastian seemed to be fine, Liam left as well.Upon hearing that Sebastian was awake, both Alexander and Cillian came to see him.Cillian was especially enthusiastic. Sebastian had not only cured him of his condition but also made him feel much younger."Sebastian, you seem to be recovering well. You look very rosy! Very good!" Cillian patted Sebastian on the shoulder, his eyes full of approval.Alexander took Sebastian's pulse and noticed that his pulse was strong and stable. He let out a sigh of relief upon confirming that Sebastian was fine.Cillian told Sebastian about what he had done with Mari
Cohen looked rather troubled as he said, "I'm not sure how to say this, Mr. Ballard. Please come to the Martial Arts Court, and you'll understand!"Sebastian nodded slightly and said to Unus, "Let's go!"As Candy watched Sebastian walk off, she felt as if her heart had been torn apart.Sebastian was so powerful! Why hadn't he said so earlier?Didn't men like showing off their strength and power in front of women? Why had he kept hiding his powers from her?If she had known earlier about how strong Sebastian was, she wouldn't have thought twice about giving herself completely to him."What should we do, Ms. Candy?" one of her bodyguards asked. They could no longer live in that villa when over 100 people had died in the yard. They had to move as soon as possible. Clearly, the villa was now a cursed place.Candy hesitated for a moment before calling one of her best friends. …When Sebastian was invited into the Martial Arts Court, he saw over a dozen corpses at the entrance an
Unus finally stopped fighting with the Lynches and revealed his true form. A humongous snake with black scales and a dragon's head that was close to 300 feet tall reared up into the sky. His bloody maw opened gently, and a strong suction force immediately pulled everyone in the Lynch family."Huh? What's that?" Maclin almost wet his pants in fright. It was a dragon!However, upon closer inspection, something didn't seem right. Dragons had four talons, but Unus' true form did not have any. Its body was smooth and pitch black, but it had the head of a dragon. It looked as if a dragon had been grafted onto a snake, or the other way around.It looked very strange, and there was a cursed energy emanating from it that sent a chill down everyone's spine.Unus' slightly open mouth was like a strong vacuum. The apprentices of the Lynch family were all sucked up into mid-air before falling right into his mouth. In a moment of distraction, Bartemius was also sucked up into the air.
Daxton collapsed and lay on the floor, convulsing violently.In the blink of an eye, over half of the Lynches' apprentices had been swallowed up by Unus.Bartemius stared at Unus in shock. He had swallowed over 50 people alive. But why hadn't his stomach expanded at all?Both Calder and Maclin felt their hairs stand on end with fear. Based on his tongue, which stretched out for several feet, they could only surmise that Unus was some kind of snake.However, they had no idea what kind of snake would be so ferocious. The truth was that they were laughably wrong. Unus wasn't a snake at all. He was a Devora!Even if their mentor was there, he wouldn't have recognized something like that. After all, Devoras had only appeared three times in tens of thousands of years of history. The first time they appeared was when the six kingdoms had been united into one by the First Emperor.The second was during the time of the Nomad King, although it had been wrongly named as another kind of
Chandler had echoed the heart of all martial arts practitioners in Dramon for the past 5,000 years. Sebastian nodded and said, "As expected of a member of the Gladius Sect. You have very high morals. What a pity! It's a huge pity!"Chandler could hear Sebastian's determination in his voice. Even if the Lynches decided not to fight that night, Sebastian would still not forgive them."Is there no other way?" Chandler asked, turning to look at Sebastian.Sebastian shook his head slightly and asked Unus, "Aren't you hungry?"Unus' eyes lit up at once. That was the best news he had heard for the past few days!Bartemius looked at Sebastian in confusion. He didn't understand why he kept asking the burly man beside him whether or not he was hungry.Laurie stepped forward and pointed at Sebastian as he yelled, "Ballard, there are over 100 of us. Even if we only punch you one time each, we can turn you into mincemeat!""One punch each? You'd have to be able to throw out that punch firs
The law enforcement team all stared at Sebastian in shock. Was he going to kill more than 100 members of the Lynch family on his own?Maclin and Calder didn't doubt it at all. If Branson or Kody were here, the Lynches wouldn't be a match for them even if they all gathered together, but even the two of them working together had almost died by Sebastian's hand.If Sebastian wanted to slaughter the entire Lynch family, it would be a piece of cake. At that thought, Maclin and Calder had no choice but to retreat until they were out of the front yard, looking in from afar. When the law enforcement team saw that the Gladius Sect members had left meekly, they followed suit as well.Candy stared in disbelief at the others' retreating figure, looking dazed. She had thought that she knew Sebastian very well and that she was nothing compared to the entire Lynch family.However, reality had taught her a vivid lesson. She had severely underestimated Sebastian's abilities, as well as his infl
Sebastian looked at the three members of the Gladius Sect in the distance. "You three are all the successors of the Gladius Sect. I used to be at the same level as your seniors. We've interacted before, and I don't wish to kill you here. What happened today has nothing to do with you. It's not too late to leave right now!"After Sebastian had spoken, both Calder and Maclin were furious. How old did Sebastian think he was?How could he say that he was of the same level as their senior?"You may be young, but you're very arrogant. I'd like to ask you which senior of mine you know well," Maclin said, smiling coldly.Sebastian gave him a brief smile and said, "It's not just your seniors. If we were to discuss this in detail, I'd probably be on the level of your mystic tier seniors!""You little…" Maclin was about to lose his temper when Chandler stopped him. "Can you tell us what your name is?" Calder asked, looking impassively at Sebastian."Sword Fiend and Sword Zealot!" Sebasti
"Your prestige?"Cohen looked as if he had heard a joke. He laughed heartily and asked in a sardonic tone, "Does your family have any prestige at all? Was the antiques dealer in Longville waylaid and killed by people sent by Colton?""Also, anyone in the antique street who get a good item will have their entire family slaughtered if they refuse to sell the item to you Lynches at a low price! Do you really think that I'm both deaf and blind? Every single person in the Lynch family has hands stained with blood!"Cohen paced back and forth as he counted all the crimes the Lynches had committed. Once he had finished, even the members of the law enforcement team looked at them with hatred.Not only were they taking things that belonged to others, they were even destroying entire families. The worst thing was that they didn't even let three-year-old children go and had them chopped up into mincemeat.Were they even human?Although the apprentices of the Nine Sects were also arrogant, t
Bartemius huffed and said, "Revenge!""Revenge?" Cohen sneered and asked, "Mr. Lynch Senior, you did receive Mr. Wentworth's command, didn't you?"The moment Joaquin's order had been given, the new rule of the Martial Arts Court had been delivered to the various elite martial arts families. And the Lynches had been the first to be notified.Bartemius had no choice but to nod and said, "We have received it."Cohen nodded and said, "Alright. That's good. Don't you know what kind of crime it is to trespass on private property as a Warrior?"Bartemius took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. He controlled his emotions with difficulty and said, "Mr. Gabbard, to tell you the truth, both my son and grandson were killed by this person!" He pointed at Sebastian.Cohen nodded slightly and said, "So what if that's true? I'm asking you where you are right now!"As he spoke, he pointed at the earth beneath his feet."This is the home of Ms. Candy!" Daxton interrupted.Bartemius glare
Bartemius was giving Laurie and Oswald a way out while also destroying all of Candy's expectations. "Old man, whether or not you believe it, I just want to tell you that Roman died at the hands of one of your own!" Sebastian said, grinning. Bartemius was about to explode with anger. Sebastian still looked as if he was enjoying a show. However, the thing was that Roman might actually have been killed by Laurie. The Lynches had always treated the six retainers well. If Roman really had been killed by Laurie, didn't that mean Bartemius had been supporting an enemy for all these years? "Hmph! We won't discuss the rest for now. Today, I only want to see you!" Bartemius shouted, pointing at Sebastian. As soon as he finished, the Lynches' apprentices all pulled out their swords. "Ballard, you won't escape justice today!""I am going to chop you into pieces today!" They hooted, looking as if they were ready to swallow Sebastian whole. "My lord!" Unus looked beseechingly at Se
