Sebastian hurried out of the room.The three assassins from Veldor weren't part of the Lewis family's main attack. They were only a decoy.Therefore, Sebastian had to find Jeremy and Jeffrey at once. He would only be able to solve all his problems if he dealt with the two of them."That was fast, Seb!" Liam saw that Sebastian had come out after less than five minutes, and he smiled as he went up to him. "Let's go." Sebastian shot a harmless smile at the pretty receptionist before leaving the Brotherhood Club with Gavin and the others."What did you find?" Liam asked as he drove. "As we expected, the Lewis family is behind it! They were the ones who arranged for the assassins tonight too. Can you find out where Jeremy and Jeffrey are right now?" Sebastian asked calmly."Seb, Jeremy left Steinberg four days ago. However, I'm really not sure where he went. As for Jeffrey, he's a mysterious man. Even we find it hard to trace his movements," Liam said, frowning.Liam had only real
Sebastian smiled happily as he walked into a private room with Skylar. There were two other women seated on the couch inside, and they immediately got up to greet him when they saw him entering."Mr. Ballard! Mr. Ballard!" The two women slipped their arms through Sebastian's.He smiled at them as he said, "I didn't see the two of you inside that room just now. Skylar wants to thank me, but you two…""Mr. Ballard, we were the escorts for those men just now. This is Lina Turnor and Mimi Lozario. If you hadn't helped us, the three of us would have been in huge trouble today!" Skylar explained to Sebastian as she closed the door.Sebastian nodded and glanced at the four glasses of red wine already laid out on the table. He smiled and said, "I can see that you're fully prepared."Skylar was startled, and the other two women immediately smiled very awkwardly."Mr. Ballard, let me make you a toast," Skylar said. She picked up one of the glasses of red wine and handed it to Sebastian.S
Sebastian closed the door and chuckled as he said, "Don't worry. I won't kill you right now.""Mr. Ballard, we… we were forced to do this," Lina explained quickly to him.When Sebastian had killed the three men, she had been in the room. She had seen for herself how Sebastian had tortured them to death, which was why she was now looking at Sebastian with fear in her eyes."Mr. Ballard, if you're going to kill me, I have nothing to say. I beg you, please save my family." Skylar walked over to Sebastian, looking as if she had made peace with herself. There was an apologetic, guilty look in her eyes as she said, "Mr. Ballard, did you already suspect me from the beginning?"Sebastian smiled calmly and said, "Only a bit. You were acting too enthusiastically when we've only met once."Sebastian hadn't expected Skylar to drug his wine. He had thought that Skylar would try to seduce him to get his protection. However, the moment he had sniffed the wine, his keen sense of smell had imm
Skylar nodded slightly. Sebastian heard the sound of high heels in the corridor, so he quickly lay back in his original position and closed his eyes tightly.As he had expected, the door opened in less than a minute.Mimi walked into the room and looked at Sebastian, who was still on the floor where he had fallen.When she saw that he was still unconscious, she smiled and said, "Your next task is to let him lean on you as you leave the Moonlyte Club. There'll be a black van outside. Just take him there, and that will be all you have to do."Skylar and Lina nodded quickly. They hefted the "unconscious" Sebastian onto their shoulders with some difficulty and tottered outside.In the corridor, the security guards immediately surged forward when they saw Lina and Skylar walking outside with Sebastian leaning heavily on them. Lina quickly explained that Sebastian was drunk and they were taking him back. The security guards stopped asking questions. After all, many people got dead d
Sebastian saw that he was in a spacious room that was about a thousand square feet. There were over a dozen burly men dressed in black.They all looked murderous, and their waistlines were bulging. They were probably armed with guns.Behind Sebastian, Skylar and Lina were being held on the floor by four burly men. Their eyes were filled with terror as they looked at Jeremy. On the other end of the couch, Mimi sat with her legs crossed. She fixed an icy stare at Sebastian, as if she were looking at a dead man."We meet again, Mr. Lewis. However, is this how you treat guests?" Sebastian waved his tied arm.Jeremy burst into laughter and said, "Ballard, who would've thought that you would ever be in a situation like this? I really put in everything I had to get you."His smile became increasingly more ferocious. When he saw Sebastian, he immediately thought of Jasper, who was still lying in hospital. He also remembered the slaps that he had gotten that day. Since the day he start
However, the Slaughter Gods had suddenly cut off all contact with Jeremy, which was why he had suddenly gotten the idea of legalizing all his businesses. Without the support of a powerful ally like the Slaughter Gods, Jeremy had been rather cautious.However, the Slaughter Gods had suddenly contacted him again recently, making him feel that luck was really on his side.He had been planning on becoming the top dog of Steinberg's underworld with the Slaughter Gods' help, but unfortunately, Sebastian's appearance had ruined his plan.Otherwise, both Hans and Andon might have already been murdered through the Slaughter Gods. Jeremy had finally seen an opportunity when the Moonlyte Club reopened, whereupon he immediately activated the pawns he had planted in the club.However, the result had disappointed Jeremy greatly. It hadn't posed any threat to Sebastian at all. He had had no choice but to take action and plot an elaborate scheme to lure Sebastian into his trap."I'm sure you
Sebastian couldn't help feeling relieved. If Belinda hadn't given him Purity, he wouldn't have been able to dodge Mimi's shot.Although he had vital energy to shield himself, it wouldn't be able to withstand modified bullets, which would be able to penetrate it easily!Mimi's bullets were all modified, and at such close quarters, it was even more powerful than a sniper rifle.There was a deafening sound of metal clashing against metal. The bullet ricocheted away and smashed into the glass beside them.Mimi had never dreamt that Sebastian's sword would be so hard. That bullet had been made to penetrate steel several inches thick at a distance of several feet.Just as she was in shock, she saw an icy flash cross her eyes.Right after that, Mimi held onto her throat with both hands, looking defiant. Bright red blood seeped out through her fingers.Jeremy had grabbed the opportunity to retreat to the door. He turned and smiled coldly as he said, "Sebastian, you won't be able to esca
Through a top-secret message sent to him by headquarters just a moment ago, Liam had found out that Jeremy was the most important member of the Slaughter Gods in Steinberg.Sebastian turned and said to Liam, "I'll leave him to you."Liam pulled out his gun and held it against Jeremy's head. His arm trembled, but in the end, he didn't pull the trigger.At that moment, several men in suits burst onto the third floor. One of them approached Liam and said, "Colonel, all those who resisted have been shot dead!"Liam looked at Jeremy for a long time, but in the end, he slowly put his gun down and said to the two suited men behind him, "Take him away and stop the bleeding. Don't let him die!""Yes, sir!" Jeremy laughed scornfully at Liam as he said, "Didn't you want to get revenge? Kill me! Would you dare to?"The building rang with Jeremy's wild laughter. Liam clenched his fists. He wanted to kill Jeremy more than anyone. However, as the captain of the special forces team, he could
"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
