When Sebastian walked into the hospital room, he glanced at the young man lying on the bed. The top half of his body was naked, and there were countless tubes stuck into him.Under his bronzed skin, his muscles bulged slightly, and there were all kinds of wounds all over his body.It was hard to imagine how many life-and-death situations he had experienced.Sebastian touched Landon's pulse. His brow was furrowed as he thought deeply for a long time before taking out his silver needles. Very slowly, he plunged them into the acupoint in the center of Landon's chest. He began to transmit a tendril of vital energy into him through the silver needle.After that, he let Zane and Gavin help him pull out all the tubes stuck in Landon's body as he continued to give him acupuncture. After about an hour, Sebastian finally pulled out all the silver needles and said, "He's pretty much out of danger. He'll wake up tomorrow morning. Luckily, the bullet's already been removed. Otherwise, the co
"Die!" As Luther spoke, he raised his leg and aimed a side kick at Sebastian. He was surprisingly fast, and he used all his strength.Sebastian smiled slightly and raised an arm to block the blow. Then, he threw a punch at Luther's chest.Luther dodged quickly, but he was still half a beat too slow. When he saw that Sebastian's punch was about to land, he hastily used both arms to shield his chest.There was a thump as Luther was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground.Luther had been defeated with just one move."You're asking to die!" Luther stood up and charged toward Sebastian once more. There was a gleam as a dagger appeared in his hand."Be careful, Mr. Ballard!" Gavin cried out. Luther's dagger was going straight for Sebastian's throat at a fast speed. It seemed as if the blow would kill Sebastian, but he suddenly saw Sebastian smile calmly.When the dagger was only an inch away from Sebastian, he suddenly disappeared.Shocked, Luther tried to turn, but it was
Sebastian's qualifications looked like something an ordinary person would have.However, the average Warrior would not have been able to defeat Luther with just one move, let alone an ordinary citizen.At that moment, Angus received a call from his subordinate. The moment he answered, he said angrily, "I asked you to go and get me that man, and it's already been hours!""B-Boss… Luther's been crippled. There was a mistake in the information we received!"When Angus heard that Luther had been crippled, he was shocked. After all, he was one of the best among Draepolis' eight top boxing gyms. If even Luther could be beaten and crippled, then Sebastian was definitely not an ordinary person. "Alright. I've got it." Angus knew that at times like these, he had to remain calm. He must not panic.Angus hung up and turned to look coldly at Ambrose. "Mr. Rosenchild, the man that you brought is certainly extraordinary."When Ambrose saw how grim Angus looked, he said quickly, "I don't re
Ambrose knew that Sebastian had been staying at the Northmans' for the past couple of days, which meant that they must be very close.If Brett could not be saved, Angus would be sure to get revenge for everything that had angered him. No matter what, Sebastian had saved Elias' life, and Ambrose did not want to see Sebastian targeted by the Dunhills because of a moment's impulse. Seraphina was very surprised when Ambrose suddenly turned up on her doorstep.After Ambrose told her about what had happened, she frowned and thought for a long time. Finally, she shook her head slightly and said, "I can only do my best. After all, with Sebastian's personality, it won't be easy to change his mind.""You have to try your best, Seraphina! I'm sure that you can see how important Sebastian is to your family. If the Dunhills—" Ambrose drew a finger across his throat and did not finish his sentence. "I can only do my best, but I'm afraid that there will be no conclusion today. I'll give you
After all, Andon's life was now in Jace's hands. Things were very different from how they had been at the beginning. After hanging up, Andon called Sebastian at once.When Sebastian saw that it was an unfamiliar number, he answered the call and said, "Hello, who's calling?""Mr. Ballard, it's me, Andon. I'm holding a banquet specially to apologize to you," Andon said heartily."Alright. Where are you having this banquet?" Sebastian asked, smiling."The Honora! It's a famous restaurant in Sunway!" Andon said, smiling widely."What time?" Sebastian asked shortly. "At eight tonight in Room 401. I hope we have the pleasure of seeing you there, Mr. Ballard," Andon said, smiling obsequiously."Of course!" Sebastian hung up."Who was that, Mr. Ballard?" Zane asked, frowning."Andon from Steinberg. He wants to invite me to a trap that he's set up for me," Sebastian said, smiling slyly."A trap?" Gavin asked, his brow wrinkled. "I bet that he's already talked to Jace about it. Sh
After seeing Sebastian's fight with Luther, Gavin finally believed what Cillian had said.Gavin could not say for sure that he would be able to knock Luther out with just one punch and defeat him with another move.The powers that Sebastian had shown were far beyond what Gavin himself could ever aspire to, and as a soldier, all he felt for those stronger than him was respect.That was why Gavin saw Sebastian as someone who was worthy enough to be someone that he could follow and learn from as a role model."Mr. Ballard, there seem to be assassins on the second floor," Gavin said in a low voice because he could sense danger.All the lights on the second floor were turned off, so when they looked around, all they could see was darkness. There were also the faint silhouettes of tables and chairs laid out neatly.Only those who were particularly good at staying concealed would be able to detect the danger in the air. Gavin was one of them. Sebastian smiled calmly and went straight
"Hmph!" Cormac scoffed but didn't answer. He turned back and clapped his hands lightly three times.The silhouettes of three men and a woman immediately materialized at the door. One of them was Rose. Sebastian's heart skipped a beat. He immediately exchanged looks with Gavin, who also sensed how dangerous the four of them were."I have a few friends who would like to have a word with you." Cormac confidently pulled out a chair and sat down.Rose and the three other black-clad men sat down. The four of them were positioned in a way that ensured that both the door and the windows were covered. "Is there a grudge between us?" Sebastian asked, looking at one of the men."You've killed so many members of the Slaughter Gods. How could there not be a grudge between us?" the man answered coldly."What about you?" Sebastian asked, turning to look at Rose."I came to watch the show, handsome. Don't be so nervous." She smiled winsomely at him.The other three turned to look at her in
"Thank you, thank you." Cormac got up and ran out of the room. Andon immediately got up to escape with him."Hold it!" Sebastian said sharply. Andon froze in the doorway. He stood stiffly, not daring to move a muscle."Let me ask you a question. I hope that you can answer honestly. Otherwise, you'll become the fourth corpse in this room." Sebastian asked icily, "Where on earth is Jace?""I… I don't know either, Mr. Ballard! I haven't seen him for a long time. This time, I know that I've made a mistake!"If you forgive me this time, I'll retire at once and never return to Steinberg." Cold sweat was pouring off Andon's brow, and he was trembling violently."Get lost!" Sebastian waved a hand at him.Andon took a step forward, and behind him, Rose said softly, "It would be better if you acted as if nothing happened here. If a word of what took place here gets out, your entire family will die."Andon jolted slightly, then ran downstairs as fast as his legs could carry him.Altho
"Pay you? Keep dreaming!" Kayden roared. "I'm telling you, even if I were to set fire to this entire building, no one would dare to make me pay a penny! Smashing this tiny hotel up is nothing!" He continued, "You came at just the right time. Today is the day I'm going to show you how I have some fun with your lady!"Kayden suddenly had an extremely evil thought. He would make the men from the law enforcement hall restrain Sebastian before he stripped Nina naked right in front of him. He was thrilled at the thought, and he was getting even more exhilarated. It wasn't the first time he had done such a thing, but he had never toyed with a woman as beautiful as Nina. The thought of having such a beautiful woman under him filled him with excitement. "Oh? Do you really think that you can do as you wish with such a small number of men?"Sebastian's gaze swept over the men from the law enforcement team. Over half of them had participated in wiping out the Lynches, and they were dee
Kayden grinned slyly as he spoke. The reason he hated Sebastian so much wasn't only because of how badly the latter had beaten him up. What was more important was why someone like Sebastian would have such a beautiful woman with him!Kayden was the heir of the Berkeleys. He was the most influential heir in the whole of Acorn City! When compared with Nina, Candy was practically a country bumpkin. Kayden couldn't stand the drastic difference between the two women. Didn't all beautiful women like rich men?Shouldn't beautiful women be vying for the attention of wealthy heirs instead?Sebastian was just a charlatan who went around tricking people! How could he have such a beautiful woman as his companion?Kayden was determined to make Nina one of his conquests by the end of that day so that she could see how impressive he was. Even if Sebastian died, Kayden wanted to make sure to cuckold him even in death!"Mr. Berkeley, t-this isn't appropriate!"Although Rocco did not know
Not long after Kayden had reached the Aequor, over a dozen ambulances pulled up opposite the hotel and waited there. "Rocco, get out here!" Kayden yelled toward the manager's office as soon as he reached the restaurant on the third floor. Rocco had received the news as soon as Kayden walked into the hotel. He had been scared witless when he saw Kayden storm in. Sebastian hadn't been back for two nights. He might have been killed by the Berkeleys! Without Sebastian's support, how could Rocco oppose them?To Kayden, killing Rocco would be as easy as crushing a bug. "What should I do, what should I do? Oh God, oh holy mother of gods! What should I do, damn it!" Rocco ran wildly around his office. He didn't even know which god to pray to for protection. "Rocco! If you don't get out here, I'll burn your office down!" Kayden shouted once more. Rocco's heart almost stopped at the mention of fire. He pushed the door open quickly and scurried over to Kayden. "Mr. Berkeley, plea
Kayden soon received news of how Sebastian had broken into the Berkeley clan hall the night before.He was furious. Who did Sebastian think he was? Was the Berkeleys' clan hall the kind of place that people could just walk in and out of as they pleased?"Mr. Berkeley, shall we go and see the clan hall later? After all, Ms. Candy is still there," Jayden said in an ingratiating tone.He had only managed to latch onto Kayden through his connection with Colton. This was a rare opportunity for him to make a comeback.That was why he had spent quite a large sum of money on Kayden recently. He had already gifted him over a dozen high-quality emerald pieces.Kayden wouldn't have been impressed by him if he hadn't done so."Do we need to? Sebastian is sure to die this time! Rocco is annoying me more right now. How dare he neglect me just because he thinks he's found a strong ally in Sebastian?"Kayden had seen clearly how obsequious and respectful Rocco had been to Sebastian while ignori
"You've done many evil deeds, and it's time for the Berkeleys to be destroyed!" Sebastian exclaimed. He summoned back his 18 clones with a single thought while he raised Purity. "No!" Violet screamed at the top of her lungs.There was a dull thump, and a head flew high into the air. A dark energy that looked both like a snake and like a human shot out at once. Sebastian wasn't going to let her have a chance of escaping. He tossed out four yellow paper charms at the same time. They formed a Nullcurse Spell and trapped both of Violet's souls within it."When I say die, I mean that your soul and spirit will be destroyed! You won't have a chance at finding another host!"Sebastian raised his palm and upturned it slightly as he said, "Destroy!""Sebastian, you'll come to a tragic end!"There was a blast as countless bolts of gold light burst forth and pierced the dark shadow, which looked both like a snake and a human.In the blink of an eye, the dark figure had disintegrated in t
In the end, even the scales on Lucius' body had been swiped off by the blows. Huge pieces of scales were torn off his body along with his skin and flesh. With every piece of scale that was torn off, he let out a bloodcurdling scream."Aargh! Please have mercy! I won't ever act recklessly again! Have mercy!"Lucius was now completely bloodied from the beating he had received. He was covered with wounds that went deep to the bone, and he was bleeding profusely. Even Violet couldn't bear to look at him.He no longer had the dignity of the ancestral being of the Berkeleys, and he had lost his domineering air. "You won't? Hmph! What are you going to say about that snake curse in her, then?" Sebastian asked, pointing at Candy. Lucius almost burst into tears. He didn't know anything about what they had done to Candy. Besides, once the soul of a snake began to merge with that of a human, they would become an entwined soul.He had only ever heard of a secret art that could separate an e
Lucius panicked at once. His clones couldn't make different moves, but Sebastian's attacks were all coming from different directions. How could he dodge them?A bolt of blue light slashed down on the head of one of Lucius' clones. He dodged to the side quickly while leaping up to dodge the other five swords. However, before he could land, he spat out a mouthful of blood.Although his original form had escaped from harm, his clones had been killed immediately. Although they were only his clones, they were very closely connected to his true form because of how truncated his Cloning Technique was compared to the original. That was why the backlash was particularly strong when his clones were killed."Just one move and both are already dead? Your Cloning Technique really isn't much!"Sebastian's 18 clones had surrounded the severely injured Lucius and were covering over a dozen different directions."How could this be? How could you have such an orthodox Cloning Spell passed dow
"How is that possible?"Lucius looked as if he was in disbelief when he saw that Sebastian had cut through the coal-black silk threads so easily. Sebastian appeared in front of him in an instant, and he raised Purity to slash at him.Right at the moment when the sword energy was about to touch Lucius' clothes, the air around them seemed to ripple violently. Lucius shot backward several feet as if he were a phantom, and he dodged Sebastian's attack."You're truly extraordinary!"There was a gleam in Lucius' dark eyes. As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to blur out of sight before splitting into three identical figures! Even the coal-black knife in his hand was exactly the same. "You didn't expect that, did you, young man? That's our lord's secret cloning technique!" Violet laughed triumphantly. Sebastian now had to fight against three on his own, which would be certain to end in his death. So what if he could break through the binding of the coal-black silk threads?
The handsome youth's name was Lucius Vipera. He grinned evilly and said, "You're the first person who's had the guts to insult me. You will pay!""My lord!"Violet hastily bowed to Lucius, too afraid to even look up at him.Lucius ignored her and strode toward Sebastian."Young man, you are extraordinary. To have accomplished so much in your 20s isn't an easy feat. If you apologize to the Berkeleys and promise to never oppose us again, I can consider letting you go today!" he said coldly in a manner that brooked no argument. Sebastian scoffed and shook his head as he said disdainfully, "You're not also planning to make me grovel to you in apology, are you?"While they all looked on in shock, Sebastian seemed to flicker out of focus, leaving behind a line of shadows as he rushed toward Lucius.Lucius narrowed his eyes and huffed coldly. "With your paltry skills, are you really going to—"Before he could finish, Sebastian's slap landed. There was a cold flash, which Lucius has
