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
Sebastian looked at Lina, who had fallen to the floor. There was a sheen of cold sweat on his forehead.That had been close!He had almost lost his life in that split second.It was the second time that night that he had come so close to death.Sebastian could finally feel how terrifying the Slaughter Gods were.Compared to a face-to-face battle like they'd had in the past, indiscriminate assassination was very hard to guard against. A slight slip could mean sudden death at any moment!"S-Seb… I… I… Grandpa…" Blood trickled out of the corner of Liam's mouth. Two men in suits hurried forward to support him."Liam!" Sebastian hurried over to him to check his injuries.Luckily, the bullet had gone through his body without injuring any of his internal organs.Liam was vomiting up blood because of the strain on the blood vessels in his abdomen that had been caused by the drag of the bullet. That was why he was bleeding.Sebastian quickly sealed Liam's acupuncture points with silve
"So, you're the real Social Butterfly?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Skylar shook her head slightly and pointed at Mimi's corpse, saying, "She really is the Social Butterfly! Why would someone as important as me have such a vulgar name?"Sebastian was startled. He smiled and asked, "Who are you?""Bianca!" When Skylar told him her real name, he realized that she was from Yutaria. Sebastian couldn't help being shocked. Skylar's accent, behavior, and eating habits were all exactly the same as the average Dramon citizen. He couldn't spot any difference at all.If she hadn't said her name, Sebastian would never have guessed. As Sebastian looked at her in shock, a billowing cloud of white smoke suddenly rose up in front of Skylar. Suddenly, a gorgeous woman appeared in front of Sebastian.She was wearing traditional Yutarian clothes with a red floral print, and she held a snow-white paper umbrella in her hand. She smiled as she looked at Sebastian.Sebastian had seen countless beauti
If all of them joined in, the balance between Sebastian and Bianca would be disrupted.Although Sebastian couldn't hope for any of them to be able to hurt Bianca, even one thousandth of a second was important when experts were fighting. Any momentary negligence or carelessness could be fatal."No, Mr. Ballard. I've told you that I no longer want to keep being entangled with you. You will not be able to make me stay," Bianca said, smiling.Sebastian smiled wryly. For some reason, he felt like Bianca was the woman of every man's dream, and he was in the role of a suitor who was desperately chasing her. If the circumstances hadn't been so violent and bloody, he might have believed her. However, Bianca was terrifying. If it hadn't been for Purity, Sebastian would already be dead.That was why he couldn't let Bianca go!Since they were in Dramon, Sebastian had the upper hand! It was his territory, after all.Just as Sebastian decided to fight to the death with the woman, Bianca bu
Sebastian looked in confusion at Henrietta, who looked very awkward. He hesitated for a moment and nodded, saying, "I do. What is it?""Um… I'd like you to come and have a meal with me and meet some people. Could you help me out?" Henrietta asked, blushing.When Sebastian saw her shy expression, he could guess immediately what kind of gathering it was.Henrietta was already around 25 or 26, but she still didn't have a boyfriend at all. He was sure that her family was getting anxious.Besides, she looked so bashful that Sebastian immediately sensed something."Dr. Queen, with medical skills like yours, shouldn't your family be hoping for your career to reach even greater heights? Won't pushing you to get married at this time be holding you back?" Sebastian asked, frowning. He really didn't want to get involved in such things, but for Liam's sake, he couldn't refuse. He had no choice but to try and persuade her out of it."Don't misunderstand! I just want you to meet my family so
"As long as you're alright. It'll be best if there's no next time," Rosalie said worriedly.Sebastian laughed out loud and glanced at the room beside them. "It's too late, and I'm tired. You two should rest early, too."He pushed open one of the doors, lay down on a couch, and fell asleep.Sebastian dreamt about the Yutarian woman, Bianca, again!Sebastian had once heard his mentor mention that if he were ever to meet the Thousand-Faced Enchantress from Yutaria, he would have to be extremely careful.Bianca had left a strong impression on Sebastian after their battle that day. If he hadn't been trained by his mentor so thoroughly, he would probably have died.At that moment, Zane suddenly called. Sebastian was jolted awake by the sound of his phone. He glanced down at the caller ID and exhaled before answering it."Where are you, Mr. Ballard?" Zane asked anxiously."I'm at the Moonlyte Club. Is anything wrong?" Sebastian asked calmly."Mr. Ballard, I'm coming to get you righ
Raphael felt that he was already showing Sebastian respect by giving him 5,000 dollars. If it had been anyone else, he wouldn't even have given him 50 cents, let alone 5,000 dollars!Even if he didn't pay a single penny, the mention of the name Demongate should have been enough to make Sebastian hand the Soulbell over to him."Mr. Fonda, you—""Mr. Ballard, as well as everyone here, I hope that you can understand something," Raphael cut Blake off. "The Soulbell has always belonged to Demongate. No matter how Mr. Ballard got it or whom he got it from, he should return it to its rightful owner unconditionally and present it to Demongate."I came personally and even gave Mr. Ballard a tidy sum of money for his hard work. I've done more than I needed to."Raphael clasped his hands behind his back and looked slightly contemptuous as he continued. "I don't just represent myself. I represent all of Demongate."He was clearly threatening them."Are you threatening me?" Sebastian laughed
Sebastian frowned, and he looked icily at Raphael. It had only been two short days since he had killed Terence. How had Raphael gotten the news?"You have a very efficient news network, Mr. Fonda. May I ask how you know that I have the Soulbell?" he asked, his eyes narrowing coldly at Raphael."In this world, you shouldn't do things you don't want people to know about," Raphael said, smiling contemptuously. He clasped his hands behind his back.Raphael was acting as if Sebastian had stolen Demongate's sacred vessel, and he was here to accuse him of doing it. "Mr. Ballard, there are rules in society, and the mystic martial arts sects have their own principles. As for who told me this news, it's not convenient for me to say. I came here today mainly to ask you to give the Soulbell back." Raphael made his intention clear. He clearly had no qualms about doing so.However, Blake frowned as soon as he heard him.According to the rules of the mystic martial arts sects, vessels like the
"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
