Sebastian nodded and smiled at Wyatt in greetings. Wyatt finally sat down in his chair and said, "Well, tell me why I can't drink alcohol.""Of course you can. Why not?" Sebastian chuckled."Seb!" Liam shot him a meaningful look. "Liam, Mr. Holman Senior is allowed to drink alcohol. Things that are pungent are good for the lungs, and alcohol can help. Why shouldn't he drink it?" Sebastian explained to Liam. "Sebastian, your medical skills are as advanced as ever. What you said makes sense. Come, let's shake hands. After that, we must have a few drinks together." Wyatt got up and shook Sebastian's hand heartily. Sebastian was his savior! That bunch of doctors in white coats had all refused to allow him to drink. Sebastian was the only one who supported him, so Wyatt immediately thought of him as a close friend. "Mr. Ballard, is Mr. Holman Senior really allowed to have alcohol in his condition?" Jonah asked worriedly."Yes, but he's only allowed to have elderflower wine. Add s
Liam also put down his glass and stared intently at Wyatt.Wyatt's stance represented the entire Holman family. If Wyatt gave his support, Liam could forge ahead without any worries. "As long as it's related to the Sanguis Cult, then kill them! Rid us completely of that evil!" Wyatt said through gritted teeth, clenching his fists."I understand," Liam said, nodding heavily. "You don't have to worry about the Sloanes. I'm an old man, but I have some favors to call in among the higher-ups. "If they dare to stand with the Sanguis Cult, then it means that they are openly standing against me and my old pals, and all of Crestborne. You don't need to show any mercy to those who betray their people!" Wyatt's steely voice echoed in the hall.He added, "However, there's one more thing. You must not kill the innocent. You need to have evidence for everything." After all, the Sloanes were not an ordinary family. That was why they would have to have an airtight plan with clear evidence.
As night fell, Arctic Snow Group's pharmaceutical factory slowly emptied. There were only a few security guards on the night shift who were left."Ms. Sutton, please wait," Lisa stuck her head out of her office and called out as Whitney walked out of the office."What is it?" Whitney asked, stopping in her tracks. "Ms. Sutton, I just want to thank you. Shall we have dinner together?" Lisa asked. She took her trench coat down from the rack and came out of her office. She could have gone home hours ago, but she had stayed in the office to wait for Whitney to come out."It's alright. I'm going to eat at home." Whitney smiled at her. She hadn't seen Sebastian for days, and she did miss him a little. For some reason, ever since she had started living together with Sebastian again, memories of their marriage together had kept flashing up in her mind."Ms. Sutton, I also have a few questions that I'd like your advice on," Lisa said. She took out a document folder and held it out to
"Whitney, was that woman from your factory? It doesn't seem like it," Zane asked as he drove."She's the manager of the production hall. She just wants to buy me a meal," Whitney answered, sounding slightly annoyed."Whitney, you've got to be wary of her," Zane said seriously."What do you mean by that?" Whitney was irritated. Firstly, Zane had scared her half to death and had insisted that she leave quickly, and now he was meddling in her relationships with her colleagues at the factory.Even Sebastian didn't try to interfere with these things. So, what right did Zane have to try and interfere?"Later, that woman—" Zane still did not know how to address Rose."Which woman?" Whitney said angrily, looking impatient. "The female assassin. When she gets back, you'll know why," Zane explained hurriedly."Her?" Whitney couldn't help frowning."Yes. Actually, Seb wasn't the one who asked me to come and pick you up. It was her. She told me to bring you home and wait for her there."
Rose giggled and played with her hair. Her fingers found the blade hidden in her collar, and she held it tightly between her index finger and middle finger.One of the men approached her, and her slender fingers brushed lightly across his neck. From a distance, it looked as if Rose was embracing him, but when she moved her hand away from his neck toward another one of the men in the army fatigues, the first man fell to the ground, clutching his neck.She had cut his windpipe with frightening accuracy in just one slash, but she had not cut open any blood vessels. The first man stopped breathing without shedding a single drop of blood.In just the blink of an eye, five men had fallen. Artie was aghast, and he quickly reached for the gun around his waist. However, he had only just pulled out the gun when he felt a chill on his wrist. His entire right hand had been cut off, and the gun fell into Rose's hand."How can a bunch of losers like you try to commit murder?" Rose toyed with
Artie didn't conceal anything as he answered. All he wanted was to escape from the devilish Rose as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would be sure to bleed to death."You may go," Rose said. She leaped out through the window and disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if she had never been there at all.Artie ignored the corpses sprawled all over the ground and started the engine quickly. He had to get to the hospital.However, just as he turned the key in the ignition, there was a flash of flame. The roof of the van was blown off in the loud roar of an explosion.…Rose only got back to the Moonlyte Club when it was late at night. Whitney was eating dinner. When she saw Rose push the door open and enter, she looked extremely displeased as she said, "I hope that you don't interfere with my work again. Right now, the pharmaceutical factory—""I don't want to see you die," Rose interrupted, looking impassive. "What?" Whitney frowned as she stared at Rose.Rose took out a stack o
Whitney had just left the Moonlyte Club when Rose pushed the door open to Sebastian's bedroom and entered. "As you expected, someone already has an eye on Whitney and Rosalie," she said simply.Before everything at the pharmaceutical factory had taken place, Sebastian had received news from Vince, which was why he had not gone over with Whitney. He had already informed Vince about everything.The corpses were being verified to check their identities. They were all criminals who were wanted for arrest. Therefore, the police would only need Whitney to cooperate and give a statement."Who did it?" Sebastian asked, his eyes narrowed. "Someone named Tyler Searle. He should be at The Elysium." There was a murderous flash in Rose's eyes. It was her instinct as an assassin to fiercely deal with anyone who could threaten her safety. Before Sebastian could speak, there was a frantic knocking at the door."Who is it?" he asked, sitting up. "Mr. Ballard, an old gentleman has come and a
"You're at Level One of the Celestial stage. Why are you willing to be the Gullivers' lackey? Besides, the Gullivers no longer exist. Why are you so fixated on this?" Sebastian said as he continued to walk forward. He clearly didn't intend to stop.However, when he heard the old man mention his battle with Bianca five days ago, his heart sank involuntarily. Was the old man the person who had sent him the letter that day?"I am not associated with the Gullivers, and I didn't come on their behalf. Otherwise, I wouldn't have commanded someone to send you the secret letter five days ago. However, under any circumstances, you should not have been so harsh on Mr. Thompson." The old man's eyes grew colder."Sir, that was the Gullivers' fault. This has nothing to do with you. Besides, I bear no grudge against you, and I do not wish to hurt you," Sebastian said sincerely. Since the old man had tipped him off that day, he was clearly not an evil person. Sebastian was only vicious toward tho
"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
