Micah couldn't help thinking that Melisa had suddenly become this way after Sebastian took out that white piece of paper. He suddenly became alert. He had heard about how powerful yellow paper charm spells could be. If Melissa had been hit with a yellow paper charm, it would be troublesome!"You don't have to know geomancy or the mystic arts to be able to see what's wrong with your sister, do you?"She's unconscious right now, but she has a rosy complexion and doesn't look sick at all. If I'm guessing correctly, the pill this old man is holding is the kind of pill that can replenish energy!"Your sister fainted because of oversaturated energy, so she can't take this pill. If she does, her life will be in danger," Sebastian said sternly."You have to have evidence when you talk, young man. My grandfather's Soulreturner pill is famous in Sunway. So many prominent figures have taken it, and they praise Grandpa for how good the pill is," Kyle said, his eyes bulging with anger. "I t
As soon as Kyle spoke, everyone was dazed with shock. How confident and brave would one have to be to make such a promise?Eating a giant bowl of worms?Even Gregory's face twitched slightly as he looked at Kyle out of the corner of his eye. He cursed him inwardly for being a terrible partner. Eating worms? Why would he drag Gregory into that?"Shut up!" Micah looked at Gregory and said, "Mr. Larkin Senior, are you sure that your pill will be effective?"Gregory looked very awkward as he said, "Of course! You heard my grandson. If we weren't extremely confident, he… he wouldn't have made such a grand promise.""Alright. Please save my sister, Mr. Larkin Senior!" Micah said as he moved aside.Gregory walked over arrogantly to Melissa and stuffed the pill carefully into her mouth. Someone handed him a glass of water. Gregory took it and fed the pill to Melissa.As soon as she had swallowed the pill, a red flush appeared on Melissa's face. Kyle said excitedly, "Well? Look at that
"I don't care what solution you find. If my sister doesn't wake up, I'll bury the two of you alive!" Micah flung Gregory aside and looked meaningfully at a few of the security guards, who immediately surrounded the Larkins.Gregory knew that he was in trouble this time. He scrambled over to Sebastian's feet and clung to the latter's thigh, saying, "Please, save me! I'm begging you, save me!"Sebastian looked down at Gregory and said, "Your grandson already said that if your Soulreturner pill didn't work, you'd both eat a huge bowl of worms right here. Besides, the Stallones trust you more than they trust me."Micah's heart dropped to his stomach. Did Sebastian mean that he would be able to save Melissa?Micah could no longer bother about maintaining an image. He hurried over to Sebastian and kicked Gregory aside. "Damn it, you old dog, get lost!"Micah said very politely to Sebastian, "Mr. Ballard, please forgive my ignorance. Please don't hold it against me, and please save my
At the very least, Sebastian was much stronger than the Larkins.The Stallones might have a huge family fortune, but they were still wary of those who belonged to the mystic sects.Even though Micah knew that Sebastian was the one who had messed with Melissa from the start, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.However, a hatred for Sebastian had already taken root in him.Micah told himself that there would always be another day. Sooner or later, he would make Sebastian pay twice as much for what he had done.Micah was filled with hatred, but his smile did not betray his emotions as he nodded and said, "Thank you for the warning, Mr. Ballard. I'll remember the favor you did us today." He shot a look at the security guards and said to the Larkins, "You two! Come with me. You're going to eat that bowl of worms today!""Micah! Are we just going to let him go? I… no matter what, I have to get back at him today!" Melissa said, looking unhappy. "Don't be unreasonable, Mel! W
"New World Media?" Sebastian pretended to be shocked. Then he said, "I've never heard of it." Jeremiah had been getting ready to say something that would show his humility, but Sebastian's words made him feel like a bucket of cold water had been emptied over him. He felt cold to the core. "Actually, our company has promoted a lot of top celebrities. It's very well known in the entertainment industry." Jeremiah couldn't resist boasting a little. "That's good." Sebastian laughed dryly."Rosalie, you have such great poise. Even though you've left the Griffin family, I could make you one of the top celebrities in the country within half a year at most. "Perhaps the Griffins will even send someone to ask you to come back. What do you think? Are you interested in joining my company?" Jeremiah asked, his eyes shining as he stared at Rosalie. Jeremiah was the CEO of a media company, and he had had his eye on Rosalie's beauty for a long time. He just hadn't had an opportunity to appr
"Hmph! Would a guy like you be worthy of being here? This is an insult to those of us in the upper class!" Jeremiah yelled angrily.People like Jeremiah brought bodyguards with them wherever they went. As soon as he shouted, his bodyguards and the leader of the security team, Ralph Towne, converged upon them with dozens of others. "What's the matter now, sir?" Ralph turned a hostile glare on Sebastian. Sebastian had just offended the Stallones, and now he had offended Jeremiah. He was just causing trouble here! "What happened? He's trying to lure my girlfriend away right in front of me. If he was flirting with your wife, what would you do?" Sebastian asked, looking coldly at Ralph."He's accusing me groundlessly! I'm friends with this lady and we were just chatting. He hit me without even figuring out what was going on!" Jeremiah roared, pointing to the handprint on his face. "What? Don't talk nonsense. I don't even know you!" Rosalie said with a look of revulsion on her face.
"Don't say I didn't warn you, sir," Ralph huffed coldly. There was an icy flash in his eyes as he waved at the Grandmaster experts beside him.Jeremiah looked triumphant and crossed his arms over his chest, looking scornfully at Sebastian. He was looking forward to watching the show.There was a cold gleam in Sebastian's eyes as his gaze swept over the security guards, Jeremiah, and Jeremiah's bodyguards. "Are you sure you won't regret it?" Ralph scoffed and reached to grab Sebastian's collar.He expected Sebastian to only struggle for a while before submitting at once. He thought he could take Sebastian down easily with just a single move.However, before he touched Sebastian's collar, he felt as if a speeding train had crashed into his chest, and he found himself flying backward helplessly. As Ralph was sent flying, a trail of blood flew through the air behind him. He slammed against a stone pillar before falling heavily to the ground. He had been knocked out cold.When the
"Mr. Gibson, bad news! Our security team got beaten up, and there's a young lady being held hostage!" a security guard in a black suit said to Tripp Gibson, who was sitting in the center of the room.Tripp put down the document he was holding and frowned slightly as he said, "Who would be bold enough to make a fuss at my banquet?"The security guard explained to Tripp about what had happened. After listening, he slammed the table.His temper had improved greatly over the past few years, and many people had forgotten that he wasn't just a businessman; he was also an extremely ruthless man."Who are the people who started this conflict? Have you checked?" Tripp asked grimly."Yes. One of them is Jeremiah Manson, the CEO of New World Media. The other is named Ballard. I heard that he's a consultant of Arctic Snow Group in Steinberg. He probably doesn't come from a prestigious background," the guard answered quickly.At the mention of Sebastian, a young man sitting beside Tripp scoff
"It's a good thing I was here tonight. You may not be so lucky next time," Lyanna said. She got up to leave, but Rosalie rose hurriedly and called after her, "Wait!""Is there anything else?" Lyanna turned her head slightly and fixed her beautiful eyes on Rosalie."What kind of person is Sebastian? I mean…" After Lyanna had told her who she was, Rosalie felt as if her thoughts were in turmoil. Even Sebastian, whom she had always loved and admired, had suddenly become unfamiliar to her.If Sebastian had just been a traditional medicine doctor, she could have accepted it. However, now Sebastian was keeping a female spirit around him. Not only that, the spirit was his servant. This was beyond the scope of Rosalie's understanding. Sebastian was rapidly becoming like a riddle to her."Have you heard of sages? Mr. Ballard is probably like them," Lyanna said. In a flash, she had disappeared without a trace.Rosalie remained quiet for a long time before she started the engine once mor
The short, fat man who had smashed up Rosalie's car window tossed his rock aside and hurried over. His eyes were bulging as he looked greedily at the beautiful woman standing in front of them. She was just as pretty as Rosalie was."Boss, I deserve some credit for the work I've done, don't I? Can you give me this chick?" the short, fat man asked, rubbing his hands together as he licked his lips.Lyanna looked at Chet and the short, fat man. She covered her mouth and giggled as she said, "I don't know what kind of day it is, but I do know that next year, this will be your death anniversary! Which of you wants to die first?""I… Huh?" Chet had been about to lunge forward and grab Lyanna, but then he realized what she had said.It would be their death anniversary on this day next year? What did that mean?Before he could recover his senses, Lyanna tittered and nodded. "Alright, you'll die first."She flicked her sleeve aside and revealed her slender, pale hands. Her foot-long, brigh
When Chet and the lackeys looked more closely, they saw that the car parked in the distance was a personal car and that there was a gorgeous woman sitting inside it.They were delighted at their good fortune. This was an opportunity they could not miss!As they were in such a remote area, they barely ever saw any women, let alone a beautiful one like Rosalie.Therefore, Chet gave the order, and the thugs all surged forward. They were barely able to contain their excitement."Hello, beautiful. What has upset you so much at this late hour? Tell us about it. Even if we can't make you happy, you can make us happy!" The short, fat man in the lead reached out to pull Rosalie's car door open as he spoke.Rosalie was beside herself with fear. She hastily locked the car and pulled her phone out of her bag as she screamed loudly at the men outside her car. "What do you want? Stay away from my car, or… or I'll call the police!"The fat, short man glanced at Rosalie, who looked frightened an
Sebastian heard Rosalie sobbing behind him. He turned around abruptly, but Rosalie rushed over to him and slapped him in the face before he could explain."Sebastian! I rushed over here as soon as I heard that something had happened in Steinberg! You… You're a jerk!" Rosalie was weeping. She had been planning on telling Sebastian on the day of the martial arts battle about the good news of the huge order that Arctic Snow Group had received from Lorcan. However, while eavesdropping on a conversation between Oliver and Belinda, she found out about the huge commotion over in Steinberg.When she heard that all eight of the Celestial realm experts that the Warrior League had sent to protect Whitney had all been killed and that the latter had disappeared, Rosalie couldn't contain her anxiety.She had rushed back to Steinberg at once.When she found no sign of Sebastian at the Moonlyte Club, she had come to the convenience store instead.She saw that it was lit up and had run straight
Hank and Taylor broke out into a cold sweat when they saw what had happened. Terence was like a god to them!Who would have thought that Terence, who had had the upper hand just a moment ago, would have stood vacantly on the spot just because Sebastian had thrust the rusty bronze mirror at him? He had just stood still and waited for Sebastian to come and kill him!"Run, hurry!" Before he could think too much about it, Taylor growled in a low voice and turned to flee to the foot of the mountain.Hank only came to his senses when Taylor was already far away from him. He was about to go after him, but he had only gone a few steps when a ghostly, feminine figure appeared and blocked his path."You—" The moment Hank turned, his soul almost left his body from fright at what he saw.Only a moment had passed since Terence's murder, but the eerie woman in front of him had already cut off more than a dozen heads. Whenever she cut a head off, dark energy would be sucked into her emerald
Terence wielded his sword. Wherever the blade pointed, the air was sliced apart instantly!Sebastian forced himself to concentrate and raised his sword to shield his chest!There was a clang as Terence's sword crashed down on Sebastian's, and sparks flew up at once. Sebastian couldn't help but take a few steps back. He felt the energy roiling inside him and almost spat out a mouthful of blood."My lord!" Nina felt extremely anxious when she saw that Sebastian was at a disadvantage. She ignored Sebastian's previous command and leaped over to him to hold him up. "My lord, are you alright?" Nina asked in concern. Sebastian was slightly flushed, and he looked as if his energy was becoming erratic. He shook his head slightly and pushed Nina away. He handed Whitney to her and said, "Protect Whitney well. If anything happens to her, come and see me with your head!" Nina turned to Rose, who was beside her. She wanted to protest, but Sebastian waved a hand and said, "Lyanna was hur
"It's a pity that you'll never understand," Sebastian said.Terence's face flushed. Who would've expected a young man in his twenties like Sebastian to be so perceptive? He was even more advanced than Terence in the Way of Wisdom!"My lord, I was trapped in the front yard just now. No matter how I walked, I couldn't get through the door. That's why…" Lyanna trailed off and hung her head, looking shamefaced.Technically, she was a spirit. How had she fallen prey to the Bewitchment spell? Even Lyanna was puzzled."It's the Soulbell!" Sebastian turned abruptly to look at Terence.Lyanna felt that she couldn't have been trapped by the Bewitchment spell because she didn't actually have a body. Meanwhile, Nina was a thousand-year-old snake deity, and ordinary formations couldn't contain her at all.Therefore, there was only one possibility. Terence had external help. The Soulbell was the only possible explanation.Nina and Rose arrived as well."Protect Whitney," Sebastian said befor
Sebastian eyed the middle-aged man and laughed coldly. "You surprised me too. Do you want to be a sacrifice for my sword?"Sebastian gently shook Purity, which he was holding. Immediately, it felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck the entire yard!Hank and the others began mocking him at once. "Ballard, you are bold out of ignorance. Do you know who is standing in front of you? Let me tell you, it's the seventh elder of Sword Towers, Mr. Manderly."One of them added, "Consider it an honor for you to be killed by Mr. Manderly."Sebastian raised an eyebrow and squinted at Terence as he said, "If I'm guessing correctly, Nina and the others must have fallen into your trap. That's why they haven't arrived yet. Right?""You're observant!" Terence smiled faintly and said, "If you hadn't stepped into Draconem Cathedral right before I did, you would be stuck in a Bewitchment trap, just like them."Honestly, it's a miracle for someone of your age to have this level of training. However,
While Taylor stood there, stunned, Sebastian bore down on him. Upon seeing Sebastian raising his fist to hit him once more, Taylor hastily pulled himself together and met Sebastian's punch with his own."Are… Are you all stupid?" Blood was seeping out of the back of Taylor's hand as he looked at the people behind him."You've always liked fighting alone, Taylor. We were afraid that we would spoil your fun." Despite what Hank said, he turned on his heel and sent a spinning kick at Sebastian to block his path.Sebastian felt a strong force rushing toward him, and he immediately stopped in the midst of pursuing Taylor. He moved aside and aimed a roundhouse kick at Hank. Yet another wave of energy exploded, and fear flashed across Hank's face. The blow had seemed plain, but it embodied the mysterious principles of martial arts.Even an expert who was two levels higher than Hank would have had his bones broken by that kick, let alone someone who was only at the first level of the Ce
