Aloysius was much calmer. Although the black-robed man was holding a knife against Orlando's throat, he didn't seem overly flustered. He looked calmly at the man and said, "I'm guessing that you have a grudge against Sebastian, too. Since we have the same goal, why don't we sit down and have a cup of hot tea?"Jeffrey nodded approvingly at Aloysius. He put his knife away and strode toward the sofa opposite the Gullivers, where he sat down."I guess it's true that experience counts for something. I'll get straight to the point. I'm from the Sanguis Cult. I believe you've heard of us, Mr. Gulliver Senior."Even Aloysius gasped at what Jeffrey had said.The Sanguis Cult was even more terrifying than the Slaughter Gods.If the Slaughter Gods were just an organization of murderers, then the Sanguis Cult could be said to be one of the newest, most evil martial arts sects that had popped up in the past couple of years. It was rumored to have accepted experts from all kinds of sects fro
Aloysius sighed heavily and said, "The Sanguis Cult is the kind of entity that we could never reach. Even the Slaughter Gods are wary of them!""However, when one door closes, another opens. Perhaps we can forge a connection with the Sanguis Cult through this incident with Sebastian. That would be a boon for our family too." Aloysius' serious expression softened as he smiled slightly.…That night, Gavin rushed to the hospital as soon as he could. When he saw Sebastian, he asked in concern, "Mr. Ballard, how is Ms. Griffin? If you need me to, I'll transfer the best medical equipment in Janover here right now."Sebastian waved a hand gently and said, "It's alright. Rosalie is out of danger. She'll wake up after resting for three days. However, those assassins didn't seem to be part of the Slaughter Gods."Gavin frowned and asked, "Mr. Ballard, do you mean to say that someone else was trying to assassinate you this time?"Gavin's phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was his deputy,
The assassin who had disguised himself as a security guard had martial arts skills at the level of a Grandmaster.Even a small bomb would not have been able to injure a Grandmaster expert so severely. Thus, the degree of his injuries would have required tremendous force and impact.That meant Sebastian's kick was at least at Level One of the Celestial level. That was the only way he would have been able to break the man's spine into six pieces with just one move."It's true. You can come and see for yourself if you don't believe me. I heard that Mr. Ballard was even carrying an injured person while he did it," Fred said as he walked over to the wall where the assassin had fallen. When he saw the cracked marble, he couldn't help knocking on it gently.An entire chunk of marble fell, sending up a shower of pebbles. It made Fred dizzy to look at it."T-The wall's cracked too," he said in disbelief. Gavin stared at Sebastian, his eyes bulging. Although he knew that Sebastian had to
"Mr. Ballard, it'll be easy to find out whether the Gullivers were involved or not. We just have to send someone to check their financial transactions. However, before we have irrefutable proof, I would like to ask you not to do anything to the Gullivers," Gavin said to Sebastian, frowning.The Gullivers were very influential among Sartvale's martial arts sects. If they attacked the Gullivers, it would also stir up those of the Martial Arts Association, and they would end up causing a lot of unnecessary trouble.Sebastian nodded slightly and said, "Alright, I'll be waiting for news from you. It's getting late. You should go home."Gavin nodded and bid his farewell. Meanwhile, Zane and Whitney had both been shaken by the assassination attempt, and they both refused to leave the hospital.Sebastian had no choice. He instructed them to find empty beds in the adjacent hospital rooms and stay there temporarily.…After the defeated assassination attempt from the night before, the Gu
Before long, a red-faced man in his 50s walked into the living room with a young man in tow.The ruddy-faced man was obviously Thaddeus.Aloysius hastily got up to greet him. He bowed to Thaddeus slightly and said, "Mr. Verton, I've heard many things about you, and I finally get to meet you today. With your help, I'm sure that we'll avenge my son in no time."Thaddeus bowed back slightly to Aloysius. He had heard about the Gullivers' predicament from Jeffrey. He then comforted Aloysius for Kelvin's death. Noticing Aloysius still looked grim, he smiled and said, "Mr. Gulliver Senior, I've heard about everything. Although Sebastian didn't die, one of the women with him was severely injured and is now at death's door."If there are no unexpected incidents, she'll die from her injuries any time now. That will be like collecting interest from Ballard." Aloysius looked up at Thaddeus. He looked sinister as he said, "I don't care how many of the people around him die. I only want him d
Thaddeus glared coldly at Aloysius."Oh, right, right. You're absolutely right, Mr. Verton." Aloysius finally understood why Jeffrey had said that they would need the Gullivers' connections.However, if he could kill Sebastian and avenge Kelvin, Aloysius would be willing to do anything.…Early the next day, Sebastian had just changed the dressings on Rosalie's wound when someone banged on the door of the convenience store.Sebastian had taken Rosalie back to the convenience store so that he could easily treat her if there were any urgent situations.Additionally, the convenience store was in a comparatively remote location, so it was easier for Gavin and the others to lie in wait. Once their opponent sent assassins to them again, they could catch them all in one fell swoop and find the mastermind behind it."Damn it, who's that? How could they be so uncivilized?" Zane opened the door angrily. There was an old man and a young man standing outside. The old man wore a mink coat,
"Sebastian, did they say that someone is challenging you to a martial arts battle? What kind of era are we living in? We won't go!" Whitney said, looking worried.Zane nodded and said, "That's right, Seb! They chose the place and time. There might be a trap! We'd better not go.""No." Rosalie mustered up the energy to sit up, and she said in a trembling voice, "The Martial Arts Association have come forward. If Sebastian doesn't go, the consequences will be dire.""Rosalie." Whitney hurried over to the bed to help Rosalie sit up."That's right. We can't refuse a challenge from the Martial Arts Association," Liam said seriously. He had rushed over as well. "Seb, as far as I know, they've invited another expert to come. This person is someone our special forces team have been looking for," Liam said to Sebastian as soon as he entered. He looked as if he were facing a formidable enemy."Who is it?" Sebastian asked, frowning."His name is Ricardo, and he's one of the experts of Yut
"We can send more people and spread a wide net," Liam said defiantly."It won't be of any use. It will only increase the numbers of injuries and casualties." Sebastian sighed and said, "Besides, I regret to tell you that you'd better not let your men appear tomorrow."Liam looked at Sebastian in surprise. He frowned and said, "Seb, what do you mean by that?""If Ventus and Bianca are experts of the same level, you won't be able to do anything to them. Even I can only reach a tie with Bianca in battle," Sebastian said earnestly."Seb, did you reveal the news to Blake on purpose so that Madam Dragon will intervene again to help you?" Liam asked instinctively. Sebastian shook his head slightly and said, "I want to verify a theory of mine. If she appears again, it'll mean that I've guessed correctly.""What theory?" Liam asked doubtfully.Sebastian shook his head and didn't speak again. Before he could verify his suspicions, he wouldn't reveal anything to anyone.That night, Sebas
Belinda nodded slightly and said, "Hold grand funerals for those who are dead and take care of their families.""Yes, Madam," Blake replied. He looked stern as he waved at the Warrior League apprentices. They all quickly picked up the corpses of the Warrior League apprentices on the ground and carried them into the cars.Someone took out gasoline and poured it over the assassins.Sebastian lit a cigarette and took a few drags. He then flung it at the pile of corpses.As flames roared into the air, Blake said coldly, "Get into the cars and let's go!"The procession of cars began driving toward Ventus Estate. …After Luigi had managed to escape, he stopped a few miles away. The assassins who had followed him slowly gathered together.After counting the people present, Luigi couldn't help sighing heavily. Out of over 300 assassins, almost half of them were dead. How was he going to explain this to Giovanni?"Warrior League!" Luigi clenched his fists viciously."Mr. Coppola, m
Blake was shocked to see that the apprentice had been killed right in front of his eyes. He waved quickly to his right and left.There was the sound of doors opening and closing as over 200 Warrior League apprentices jumped out of the cars.The rustling sound in the woods could be heard from either side of them."The assassins have caught up!" Saul said nervously.Although he was very confident in Sebastian's skills, he was still only one person. The Warrior League had more people, but the assassins were in the shadows. It was a disadvantageous situation for the Warrior League.There was a sharp whistling noise as countless throwing spikes shot out of the woods. Several Warrior League apprentices fell to the ground."Turn off the car headlights!" Sebastian shouted at the Warrior League members.All the car headlights were turned off at once, and it became pitch-black. Sebastian opened the car door softly and leaped into the woods. There was the crunch of bones breaking, and
"They're afraid that the Juwanian King Jorvahn will lead a force to Dramon and affect their plans. That's why they wanted to kill everyone. Their goal is to find the Reincarnation Pill in Dramon," Belinda said as she analyzed the situation.Sebastian frowned, deep in thought. Soon, he nodded in agreement.That was the only explanation that made sense.Otherwise, there was really no reason for the Yutarian Warriors to slaughter all the Yvantonian Warriors when there was no grudge between them."They killed all of my people. As long as you keep me safe, I'll tell King Jorvahn about everything that happened here. I can guarantee that King Jorvahn will destroy all of them, and he won't hold you responsible," Saul said urgently to Sebastian and Belinda. Sebastian and the Warrior League were Saul's last hope. They were still more than ten miles away from the city, and it would be impossible for him to flee there if he had to run. Besides, the enemy would be sure to chase after him if
A few other Warrior League apprentices went up to them. When they were close enough, one of them asked coldly, "What are you shouting about in the middle of the night?"Saul looked fearfully at them and asked, "Where's Mr. Ballard? I want to see him! Something huge has happened!"He was very pale, and he looked extremely afraid. The Warrior League apprentices frowned, and one of them immediately took out his phone to call Blake.Upon hearing Blake's voice, the apprentice told him about how Saul had run over to them to ask for help.Blake nodded and said, "Don't hang up yet. Let me ask Madam Dragon."Blake hurriedly rolled down the window and waved a hand at the cars behind him, indicating for them to stop temporarily."Madam Dragon, Yvanton's team leader has come to ask for help, and he bumped into some of our men who were fixing their car. Do you think…"Belinda and Sebastian were both startled. Sebastian had just killed Jorvahn's grandson, and now Saul had come to ask them
"That's right! This time, we must find the Reincarnation Pill!" said another Warrior.If Jorvahn did turn up in Dramon, the Yutarian Warriors would be wiped out by him. Yutaria had sent over 300 Warriors this time, not just to defeat Dramon's Warriors in the arena. They had an even more important mission. They had to stay in Dramon and find the Reincarnation Pill!There were only less than three years until the day when their ancestral god would be restored. The ancestral god would remain asleep forever if they couldn't get the Reincarnation Pill back within those three years.At that time, the islands of Yutaria might even sink into the sea because of the ancestral god's deep slumber. This was a secret that Yutaria had hidden for thousands of years."Kill them all so they won't have a chance to spread the news!" Giovanni finally made up his mind after hesitating for a while."Yes, sir!" The Warriors straightened up simultaneously and bowed to Giovanni.Luigi waved a hand
The news of how Jorvahn's grandson had been chopped into mincemeat and fed to dogs caused a commotion in the family at once.However, Dramon was too far away, and they didn't know enough about the situation there. Even though they wanted revenge, they would have to wait for the visiting team to return to Yvanton before they could gain more information and form a plan.…On the way back to the city, Belinda was worried for Sebastian and said, "Mr. Ballard, although there's nothing wrong with killing the grandson of the Juwanian King Jorvahn, chopping the two into mincemeat and feeding them to the dogs was a little inappropriate."She didn't just have connections with the high-level officials of Dramon, but she also had many friends in the international martial arts community. However, she had never had any dealings with Jorvahn before.Jorvahn had a terrible reputation in both Yarroland and Velkashan. He was extremely hard to deal with, and it wasn't because he was capable. It was
"What did you do to them?" Saul asked fearfully at the sight of Caleb and Reuben's bloodshot eyes. The veins on their heads and necks were bulging. "I've heard that the man with the most willpower in the world can endure this for seven minutes. That's the limit for a human. I wonder whether these Juwanian beasts can break that record," Sebastian answered, clasping his hands behind his back and looked down at Caleb and Reuben.Caleb's body curled into a ball but stretched out all of a sudden as he continued to convulse on the ground.Reuben jolted from time to time, and in less than two minutes, he began bleeding from his ears and nostrils."You're crazy! You've gone mad! Pull out the silver needles on their bodies at once!" Saul was beside himself with anger. He shot forward to pull out the needles for Caleb and Reuben.However, although he moved fast, he was sent off even more quickly. Before he could even touch Caleb, Sebastian sent him flying with a kick.Saul rolled over the
The most extreme pain in the world was the pain of bones breaking. Reuben had been lucky enough to experience that pain more than ten times within a very short period of time.If Sebastian hadn't pierced him with that needle, Reuben would have gone mad with the pain.However, no matter how much he struggled and yelled, Sebastian just acted as if he couldn't hear him. He continued to step all over Reuben's body impassively.Every time his foot landed on a spot, it was accompanied by the sound of bones cracking and shattering.The entire yard was silent except for the howling of the wind and the sound of Reuben's screams, as well as the shattering of his bones.As everyone watched him silently, even the Yvantonian Warriors who had tried to stop Belinda and the others previously couldn't help shuddering. They felt as if they were being tortured the way Reuben was. A female reporter squeezed out of the crowd and said in a trembling voice, "Oh, please! Please have mercy on him. He… H
The hundreds of Yvantonian Warriors standing in the center of the yard couldn't help but gasp. Just how strong did Sebastian have to be to pull off Caleb's arm with his bare hands?Sebastian looked so thin and frail. He didn't look strong at all."You! Stop it right now!" Saul shouted, rushing forward to stop Sebastian.Before he reached Caleb, Sebastian turned sharply. There was a cold, murderous look in his eyes, and it frightened Saul so much that he skidded to a halt."Do you have anything to say?" Sebastian asked frostily. Saul swallowed and mustered up his courage. He yelled angrily, "You can't treat Caleb like that! He's the bishop's—"Before he could finish, Sebastian slapped him. There was a loud smack, and Saul was lifted off his feet with the force of it. He spun in the air before falling onto the ground."You're so noisy!" Sebastian dusted off his hands and turned to walk toward Reuben.Reuben had wet his pants in fear when he saw Sebastian pulling off Caleb's arm.
