"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
"Whitney, I won't pursue this further for Mr. Ryder's sake. However, how can you defend your ex-husband in front of me? Isn't that disrespectful to me as your fiancé?" Jayden asked menacingly.Whitney's pretty face turned frosty. She retorted icily, "Jayden, did I ever agree to marry you? Who are you calling your fiancée? Please show some respect!"Jayden laughed coldly and said, "Ms. Sutton, don't forget that you'd have been kicked out of Frostwave Corporation by now if your mother hadn't agreed to our marriage. Even your current position as vice CEO is only secure because of the influence of my family."Whitney was stunned.Just a day ago, Edna had personally decided to make Ryder the CEO of Frostwave Corporation. As for Whitney, all she would get was an inconsequential position.Things at Frostwave Corporation had turned upside down overnight, and there were mixed feelings about it in the Sutton family.Those led by Morty had all taken Ryder's side at once, and they had immedi
For the past ten years or so, Tripp had slowly faded out of the public eye. He very rarely took part in the conflicts of the underworld, and the various social circles in Sunway had almost forgotten his existence.The truth was that Tripp had used the past ten years or so to legalize all his businesses. He had transformed himself into the chairman of Gibson Group.Despite this, the crowd still gasped at the sound of his name. They were also worried for Sebastian.If Sebastian had only offended someone from the business world, like the Stallones or Jeremiah, the most they could do would be to beat him up. However, Tripp was different. He wouldn't hesitate to murder!"Hmph! Ballard, how dare you disrespect Mr. Gibson? I think you must be tired of life! Kill him!" Jeremiah roared ferociously at his bodyguards. The bodyguards grinned viciously and raised their daggers to stab Sebastian in the chest. They assumed that Sebastian wouldn't dare to resist, as Rosalie was still being held
However, no matter how much Jeremiah struggled, he couldn't get out of Sebastian's vise-like grip.The bodyguards beside him were prostrate on the floor in terror, too frightened to even move."I always keep my word," Sebastian said. He flung Jeremiah heavily down to the floor.There was a crisp snap as Jeremiah's left leg broke, and a shard of bone pierced through his pants.Jeremiah clutched at his throat, coughing violently. He began squealing like a pig being slaughtered, and he held onto his broken left leg as he curled up on the floor.Sebastian approached him murderously and pulled up one of his arms. He stepped on his shoulder and said coldly, "The upper class? You think you're so important and better than everyone else?"As Sebastian spoke, he tore Jeremiah's arm off his body and flung it into the air."Aargh!" The onlookers screamed in horror.Jeremiah had gone pale with pain. He held his empty sleeve as blood spurted into the air like a fountain. "M-Mr. Ballard… I
"Ballard, you have crossed the line. How dare you beat up Mr. Gibson's men! Mr. Gibson was being generous when he told you to apologize, but you not only disrespected him, you even crippled that man! "People like you shouldn't be allowed to continue living in this world!" Jayden growled angrily through gritted teeth. He glared menacingly at Sebastian.A moment ago, Jayden had been worrying that Sebastian would do as Tripp had commanded, which would mean that he would have no chance of getting his revenge.When he walked into the hall, he discovered that Sebastian had ignored Tripp's order and had even maimed Jeremiah on the spot.This was an excellent opportunity for Jayden to kick Sebastian while he was down. He wouldn't miss it for the world!Ryder looked coldly at Sebastian and turned to Whitney. He said, "Do you see that? That's the husband that old idiot chose for you back then! I can't believe that you had the audacity to speak up for him!""Forget it, Mr.Sutton. Let's go.
Tripp narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at Sebastian. He looked sinister as he said, "Young man, I already gave you a way out. If you insist on behaving this way, you'll be showing me disrespect.""Oh, you must be Mr. Gibson!" Sebastian smiled sunnily as he glanced at Tripp.Tripp continued staring silently at Sebastian.Sebastian was clearly challenging his authority. He was humiliating Tripp in front of so many of the rich and famous in Sunway."Mr. Gibson came right on time." Sebastian's smile froze all of a sudden, and he said coldly, "Why didn't you come out just now when his bodyguards wanted to kill me? Why didn't you come out to stop them? What were you doing when he was holding my girlfriend hostage at knifepoint?"Both Rosalie and Whitney were in shock to hear him mention the word "girlfriend".Rosalie was shocked but delighted. Meanwhile, Whitney backed away, looking dazed. Had Sebastian made things official with Rosalie already?As Whitney backed away, she shook
Sebastian nodded slightly. Yorrick had probably killed the young man because the latter was proficient in mystic spells and was already on the brink of the threshold. That could be the only reason for Yorrick's senseless deedThere were some people who couldn't bear seeing people who were stronger than them, which was why they made their move before their opponent could grow and develop."Are you really going to concede three moves to me, old man?" Sebastian stepped forward, grinning."Of course!" Yorrick answered, staring arrogantly at him.He still hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary with Sebastian, so he assumed that Sebastian was just an ordinary guy. He had probably only been able to defeat so many experts—including Egbert—because he had used some kind of trick. Egbert had lost because he had fallen into Sebastian's trap, not because of the latter's skills. That was why Egbert ended up suffering from the backlash of the ghost he had nurtured and lost his powers."I'll
"Young man, you're so cruel. Have you ever thought of the consequences of your actions?" Yorrick asked. He put his hands behind his back as he walked slowly toward Sebastian. Sebastian eyed Yorrick, whose training was at least on the same level as Egbert's. Besides, what he had studied was also a kind of spell. He and Sebastian specialized in the same study.The moment Yorrick got angry, Sebastian had sensed the faint power of Dainist principles from him."No blows are kind, and neither are harsh words! Why do you people feel that others should meekly allow you to beat them up? When your people are injured, you immediately think of it as the other party's mistake! That doesn't make any sense!" Sebastian answered coldly."Mr. Irving, kill that asshole!" Kayden said viciously. He was still clutching his crotch with one hand while he pointed at Sebastian with his other hand. Beside them, Jayden said defiantly, "Mr. Irving, you must not let this guy go! He's ruthless and extremely
Huh? Egbert frowned involuntarily. He had never felt that way before. What was going on? There was a loud blast, and the gigantic statue suddenly appeared out of thin air. At the same time, Egbert suddenly felt his blood churning inside him, and he immediately felt a sense of foreboding.He was about to turn and run when a black bolt of light hit him in the back. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew through the air like a broken kite. "Oh! Are you actually a sadist, old man?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Before Egbert could scramble up again, yet another bolt of dark light flew toward him."Damn it!"Egbert could no longer be conscious of his image and dignity. He swore at once. The dark light was aimed at his energy reserve. If he was hit, his decades of training would be completely ruined. However, he had plenty of life experience and had been through many such situations. When he saw the dark light flying toward him, he rolled across the floor like a bal
The dark shadow stretched out a large hand toward Nina. It appeared to be planning on tearing off her clothes. "Die?" Nina burst into laughter. How dare a ghost who was only around 300 years old talk to her about dying? As the smile stiffened on Nina's face, she bared her teeth, revealing fangs. Her scarlet eyes looked up impassively at the dark shadow above her head. "Aargh!" When the gigantic, dark shadow saw Nina's true form, it turned to try and escape, but it was too close to her that it was impossible for it to do so.It had only taken one step backward before Nina reached out and yanked it back."Have mercy, my lady!" The giant shadow disappeared and became a dark and scrawny-looking ghost that was less than five feet tall. "How dare you disrupt my dreams? You deserve to disintegrate into nothing!"Nina raised her hand and pressed down on top of the dark and scrawny ghost's head. "No!"The dark and scrawny ghost fell to its knees with a thump before Nina and sa
The Sacred Medicine Secret Annals also contained mystic spells from the Demon Sect. However, it was clearly written that those who practiced them would suffer divine punishment if they were to excel in it!Those were very heavy words indeed. How evil did those spells have to be if they would bring down divine punishment on those who excelled in practicing them?"Hmph! Stop trying to act as if you're smart in front of me. Have you ever seen such amazing spells? Believe it or not, I can kill your entire family with a click of my fingers?"There was a sinister tinge to Egbert's smile. With ordinary people, Egbert would only have to send out a thought to kill the entire family of his opponent instantly.However, Sebastian was being very dismissive of him. Evil spells like those required the supernatural spirit behind Egbert to sense the opponent's energy, after which they would use the same energy to find their family members.The process wasn't as mysterious as Egbert made it out
Those deceptive tricks appeared impressive, but those who Egbert healed would only end up in an even worse state, suffering even more."I haven't committed any crimes. How can I accept my punishment?" Sebastian asked disinterestedly.Brayden sneered. "You're not the one who decides whether you've committed a crime or not. Come! Subdue this defiant man!"Subdue Sebastian? Who would dare to do such a thing?The law enforcement hall members exchanged looks.Upon seeing this, Egbert stepped forward and said arrogantly, "Young man, you've seen what I can do. Compared to me, you martial arts practitioners aren't worthy of mention at all. I'll be lenient on you because you're young and ignorant. Just give up and come quietly!"Egbert was different from ordinary deacons in the Martial Arts Court. He had been hired specially as a mystic spells expert.When compared with mystic spells or cultivation, so-called martial arts weren't worthy of mention at all.That was because all mystic spe
Brayden sneered. "Kill you and cover this up? You overestimate yourselves. This is an act of protecting officials!" The bare fact of the matter was that they were going to kill everyone who knew about the Berkeleys' depraved acts. Once they had done so, the Berkeleys' perfect image would be restored. "Do you think that it's reasonable and lawful for Kayden to act the way he does?" Sebastian asked in a cold, accusing voice. "There's no helping it. Those in power must have some privileges. That's an accepted fact in the world. It's your fault for not being part of this class of people. If you're going to blame anyone, blame yourselves for being born in the wrong family!" Brayden said smugly as he shot Egbert Galen a glance. Egbert strode over to Kayden and crouched down to inspect his injuries. He tapped him with a finger. "Aargh!" The pain made huge beads of sweat drip down Kayden's face."Alright. You can stand up and take a few steps, Mr. Kayden!" Egbert said, putting his
"Oh?" Brayden glanced twice at Sebastian before asking, "What crime has Mr. Kayden committed? Tell me!" Sebastian couldn't be bothered to argue with him and just played the phone recording. The two old men frowned involuntarily when they finished listening to it."You're Inspector Jefferson, aren't you? I'd like to ask you how anyone could want to sleep with a bride at a wedding banquet in front of thousands of guests. Is he an animal? Don't the Berkeleys do this sort of thing in private?"Does this mean that when someone in the Berkeley family gets married, any of the guests or even a mere passerby can have their way with the bride in front of all their friends and family?"Javier turned red, then pale as he listened. He pointed at Sebastian and cursed him loudly. "You bastard! Stop talking nonsense!""Inspector Jefferson, since you admire Mr. Kayden's genes so much, why don't you let him improve your family's gene pool as well? You should especially let Mr. Kayden help out wi
Two black-clad men came up to the car door and opened it for Brayden, who then got out of the car. As he alighted, two elderly men also got out of the black car behind him. They came up beside Brayden and said, "Inspector Jefferson!" Brayden clasped his hands behind his back and nodded as he said, "Mr. Galen, Mr. Irving. Come and get rid of this nuisance with me today. Remember, we must not show any mercy!" The two old men nodded slightly and said, "We'll do as you say, Inspector Jefferson!"Brayden nodded slightly and said to Jayden, "Lead the way!" Jayden hastily gestured for them to go ahead. He led them happily into the Aequor.He had fled the hotel just a while ago, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have transformed into a different person. He walked into the hotel with his chest puffed up, and his entire demeanor had changed. The attendants on the first floor looked at him in surprise. "Did that handsome young guy go and get himself an invigorating shot of so
