"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
Zane shut the door while he was speaking and started the engine."Come home first. I have something to discuss with Mr. Ballard," Theodore said. He hung up."Seb, my dad told me to take you back. He has something he wants to discuss with you," Zane said tentatively. "Alright. Let's go back to your place first, then." Sebastian nodded slightly.Gavin knew Theodore, so he went with them as well.When they reached the Northman residence, Theodore called Sebastian into the study and said very seriously, "Mr. Ballard, I think you were a little impulsive in how you treated the Dunhills today."Sebastian already knew what Theodore's intentions were, so he nodded slightly and said, "You might be right, but I don't like his arrogant attitude.""Wait a moment," Theodore said. He pulled out his phone, found a number, and dialed it. When the call connected, he handed the phone to Sebastian and said, "It's Mr. Shields Senior."Sebastian was surprised. He hadn't expected Cillian to be inv
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
