Sebastian pressed Emmett on the floor, and the latter spat out a mouthful of blood.To outsiders, it only seemed that his legs had been broken.However, Emmett knew that Sebastian's huge hand on his shoulder was exerting a force that was breaking every single meridian in his body.Emmett was filled with regret. He shouldn't have offended such a person.He had assumed that at the mention of Barney, Sebastian and the others would have had no choice but to swallow their anger.Even if Hamish had broken one of his arms, Emmett would still have come out of it looking good.Who would've thought that this would be the result? Even if he regretted it, what could he do about it?"I should have let it go for Mr. Coltrane Senior's sake, but unfortunately, you were the reason that this happened. You should kneel too," Sebastian said. He moved like a phantom, leaving only a shadow behind. In the blink of an eye, he had popped up in front of Maverick. Maverick was thoroughly dumbfounded.
"What?" Barney hit the armrest of his chair, his mustache quivering with anger.Emmett was one of his most prized apprentices, and he had joined the sect at the age of seven. Barney had trained him personally. However, Emmett was inexperienced and not skilled enough, which was why Barney had warned him to be humble and to be cautious in everything that he did.However, Emmett was used to getting his way by using Barney's name, which Barney had turned a blind eye to.Everyone in society or fellow martial arts practitioners would be sure to be lenient on Emmett for Barney's sake. Now, he was incensed to hear that Emmett had gotten his legs broken."Calm down, Mr. Litton. Let's go and see what's going on." Dexter didn't dare to delay for a single moment. He dragged Barney outside. When they arrived at the Royal Café, the patrons were all gone. Only Maverick and Emmett were left kneeling at the entrance.Maverick was in slightly better shape, as he'd only gotten his legs broken.
"Seb, I'll do it!" Liam said. He took off his jacket and got ready to attack.Sebastian grabbed Liam. Both Liam and Hamish would have a high chance of winning against Emmett, but Barney was a different story. Ten Emmetts wouldn't have been a match against Barney.Liam might be able to get into a draw with Barney after ten more years of training, but right now, Barney might very well kill Liam within ten moves."Go and take care of Hamish. Just leave this old coot to me." As Sebastian spoke, he moved like a flash of lightning, leaving only a shadow behind. Barney had been feeling perfectly smug, but he couldn't help gasping when he saw Sebastian's phantom-like moves. A technique like that was the stuff of legends. Barney had never seen it in person until that moment. The shadow left behind was because Sebastian had moved so fast that the human eye couldn't even react fast enough.Barney had been planning to back away so that he was against the wall. If he did so, no matter how
"Seb—no, Mr. Ballard…" Dexter had just called out to Sebastian when he realized that he had to be more polite. He had always called Sebastian by name before, but this time, he changed it."You don't have to be so polite, Mr. Coltrane Senior. Your grandson was the one who made a mistake, not you," Sebastian said, smiling at Dexter. He had noticed that Hamish's complexion was slowly getting better.Realizing that Sebastian wasn't planning to cause the Coltranes any trouble, Dexter breathed a sigh of relief.As for Maverick, Dexter wouldn't intervene no matter how Sebastian decided to deal with him."He hit my lobby manager just now. I hope that the Coltranes can give me a satisfactory resolution for this." Sebastian pointed at Lila."You've brought shame on this family!" Dexter roared. He slapped Maverick, who felt so wronged that he wished he was dead. Sebastian had broken his legs, and he had expected Dexter to come and avenge him.However, the opposite had happened. Dexter had
Sebastian shook his head slightly. From how Barney had acted when he left, Sebastian knew that he would be sure to try and get revenge in the future.Therefore, Sebastian felt no compassion in his heart at all.When the sun began to set, Hamish finally opened his eyes and sat up with great difficulty. He said, "I'm sorry, Seb. My carelessness has smeared your name."Sebastian smiled slightly and said, "You didn't smear my name at all. You did very well."He chuckled and gave Hamish a small black pill. He told him to take it as soon as possible.Although Hamish had taken Barney's antidote, there were still traces of poison left in his body. Without a poison-neutralizing pill, Hamish's arm might be crippled, even if he managed to survive.Afterward, Zane drove off with Liam and Hamish, and Sebastian returned to the Moonlyte Club alone. Meanwhile, Maverick was lying on a soft bed at Coltrane Estate. His injured legs were still bleeding. The pill that Sebastian had given Dexter c
Fabian only gave Marty a few instructions before hanging up.Marty looked at the address he'd written down on a note and frowned as he said, "Why does this club and convenience store sound so familiar?""Marty, haven't you heard of Dr. Ballard, the miracle doctor?" a man in black martial arts robes who was standing beside Marty asked in a low voice."Dr. Ballard?" Marty looked doubtfully at the man in black."It was broadcast live on television this morning. The one called Sebastian rescued that bus driver," the black-clad man explained."Hmph! A miracle doctor?" Marty picked up the note with the address on it and scoffed. "No one who offends the Coltranes in Sartvale ends up well. Go and arrange things. I don't want to see this convenience store again!"As for this club, let's take our time in thinking of a plan. In any case, we'll have to make this Ballard fellow remember us first!"The black-clad man frowned slightly and said, "Marty, this Ballard fellow seems to have connect
The black-clad man exchanged glances with the burly men behind him. They suddenly pulled out their daggers and lunged at Sebastian.They didn't dare betray their boss or the Coltranes. However, Sebastian was obviously not going to let them go.Therefore, they had no choice but to do their best to attack. If they could injure Sebastian severely or even kill him, they were sure that the Coltranes would be able to save their lives.When Sebastian saw that the men were charging toward him, he flicked his toe against the ground and kicked up a mass of sand and stones.The men shielded their faces instinctively. In that instant, Sebastian shot forward toward them.He raised his hand and gave a gentle push. Dirk Wallis, the black-clad man, immediately felt a powerful force crashing on his chest. He was sent flying several feet backward, and he fell heavily to the ground."Dirk!" The burly men beside him hastily helped him up. Dirk coughed violently. His lips were speckled with blood a
Sebastian had no wish to create any tension with the Coltranes. After all, he was also on fairly good terms with Harold.He had to give the Coltranes a chance to turn over a new leaf, even if it was only for Harold's sake.He hadn't expected the Coltranes to return the favor in this way. They had actually sent someone to burn his store!There were some mistakes that he could overlook, but some should never be committed.If Rose hadn't been recuperating at the store and sensed that something was wrong, the store would probably have gone up in flames."Mr. Ballard, we're telling the truth. We didn't hear everything they said on the phone clearly, but before we left, Marty said that the Coltranes were his support and that we didn't have to be afraid of anything. He said that himself," one of the burly men said loudly.Dirk was weak from his wound, and he was so angry that he fainted. "Take him and get lost!" Sebastian instructed as he pointed at the unconscious Dirk."We should t
"Kneel!" Sebastian suddenly yelled.Brayden yelped with fear and fell to his knees."Sebastian, I… I'm a tristate inspector of the Martial Arts Court!"At that point, Brayden's final hope was his authority and position. He didn't want to die, and he especially didn't want to die for no reason.He just wanted to win favor with the ancestral being of the Berkeleys and get some tips on how to get a longer life."Call your wife! I'll give you two hours. If she doesn't come, you'll be tortured to death as well. I can tell you clearly that I'm a doctor, and I have ways to keep you alive until you get slashed 3,600 times with a knife!" Sebastian said icily."I…"Brayden trembled as he pulled out his phone. His mind had gone blank, and it took him a long time to find his wife's phone number. Her name was Darla Wyllis. "Hello? Honey? A handbag caught my eye today, but that stupid store actually refused to give it to me for free! It's a lousy handbag that only costs about 500 thousand d
Jayden had only gone a few steps, but he had no choice but to stop. He turned and grimaced at the Berkeleys and Brayden, who were all looking in his direction.He was filled with regret. He should have made his escape earlier instead of coming back with Brayden. Egbert and Yorrick were clearly fools. One of them had maimed himself and ended up vomiting blood relentlessly, while the other stood there like an idiot for Sebastian to slap him. He would be surprised if either of them could defeat Sebastian.As everyone was watching him, Jayden had no choice but to return to his previous spot. He looked nervously at Yorrick, praying inwardly that the old man would somehow get more skilled. He couldn't let Sebastian screw him over!"This is the last slap, old man. Do you still have any feeling in your face?" Sebastian asked, raising his palm."Damn you!" Yorrick swore violently. However, one of his front teeth had been knocked out earlier when he was slapped, and air escaped noisily t
The entire left side of Yorrick's face had become so numb that he couldn't feel a thing."Young man, just now you already hit me—""I only slapped you once!" Sebastian interrupted, holding up a finger.Yorrick spat and said, "How could one slap have made so many noises?"Sebastian replied innocently, "Everyone here can testify that I only hit you once, and I did it very slowly too. You all saw it, didn't you?"The onlookers nodded quickly, especially the experts from the law enforcement hall. They still couldn't figure out how an expert at Yorrick's level could have been sent flying through the air by a weak slap like that from Sebastian.What puzzled them the most was that Yorrick had clearly landed in a very safe spot. Why had he insisted on rolling into a pile of broken glass and gotten such a gaping wound on his face?"Fine!" Yorrick clenched his teeth and suppressed the pain in the right side of his face. "There are still two moves left!" he said viciously."Will you com
Sebastian nodded slightly. Yorrick had probably killed the young man because the latter was proficient in mystic spells and was already on the brink of the threshold. That could be the only reason for Yorrick's senseless deedThere were some people who couldn't bear seeing people who were stronger than them, which was why they made their move before their opponent could grow and develop."Are you really going to concede three moves to me, old man?" Sebastian stepped forward, grinning."Of course!" Yorrick answered, staring arrogantly at him.He still hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary with Sebastian, so he assumed that Sebastian was just an ordinary guy. He had probably only been able to defeat so many experts—including Egbert—because he had used some kind of trick. Egbert had lost because he had fallen into Sebastian's trap, not because of the latter's skills. That was why Egbert ended up suffering from the backlash of the ghost he had nurtured and lost his powers."I'll
"Young man, you're so cruel. Have you ever thought of the consequences of your actions?" Yorrick asked. He put his hands behind his back as he walked slowly toward Sebastian. Sebastian eyed Yorrick, whose training was at least on the same level as Egbert's. Besides, what he had studied was also a kind of spell. He and Sebastian specialized in the same study.The moment Yorrick got angry, Sebastian had sensed the faint power of Dainist principles from him."No blows are kind, and neither are harsh words! Why do you people feel that others should meekly allow you to beat them up? When your people are injured, you immediately think of it as the other party's mistake! That doesn't make any sense!" Sebastian answered coldly."Mr. Irving, kill that asshole!" Kayden said viciously. He was still clutching his crotch with one hand while he pointed at Sebastian with his other hand. Beside them, Jayden said defiantly, "Mr. Irving, you must not let this guy go! He's ruthless and extremely
Huh? Egbert frowned involuntarily. He had never felt that way before. What was going on? There was a loud blast, and the gigantic statue suddenly appeared out of thin air. At the same time, Egbert suddenly felt his blood churning inside him, and he immediately felt a sense of foreboding.He was about to turn and run when a black bolt of light hit him in the back. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew through the air like a broken kite. "Oh! Are you actually a sadist, old man?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Before Egbert could scramble up again, yet another bolt of dark light flew toward him."Damn it!"Egbert could no longer be conscious of his image and dignity. He swore at once. The dark light was aimed at his energy reserve. If he was hit, his decades of training would be completely ruined. However, he had plenty of life experience and had been through many such situations. When he saw the dark light flying toward him, he rolled across the floor like a bal
The dark shadow stretched out a large hand toward Nina. It appeared to be planning on tearing off her clothes. "Die?" Nina burst into laughter. How dare a ghost who was only around 300 years old talk to her about dying? As the smile stiffened on Nina's face, she bared her teeth, revealing fangs. Her scarlet eyes looked up impassively at the dark shadow above her head. "Aargh!" When the gigantic, dark shadow saw Nina's true form, it turned to try and escape, but it was too close to her that it was impossible for it to do so.It had only taken one step backward before Nina reached out and yanked it back."Have mercy, my lady!" The giant shadow disappeared and became a dark and scrawny-looking ghost that was less than five feet tall. "How dare you disrupt my dreams? You deserve to disintegrate into nothing!"Nina raised her hand and pressed down on top of the dark and scrawny ghost's head. "No!"The dark and scrawny ghost fell to its knees with a thump before Nina and sa
The Sacred Medicine Secret Annals also contained mystic spells from the Demon Sect. However, it was clearly written that those who practiced them would suffer divine punishment if they were to excel in it!Those were very heavy words indeed. How evil did those spells have to be if they would bring down divine punishment on those who excelled in practicing them?"Hmph! Stop trying to act as if you're smart in front of me. Have you ever seen such amazing spells? Believe it or not, I can kill your entire family with a click of my fingers?"There was a sinister tinge to Egbert's smile. With ordinary people, Egbert would only have to send out a thought to kill the entire family of his opponent instantly.However, Sebastian was being very dismissive of him. Evil spells like those required the supernatural spirit behind Egbert to sense the opponent's energy, after which they would use the same energy to find their family members.The process wasn't as mysterious as Egbert made it out
Those deceptive tricks appeared impressive, but those who Egbert healed would only end up in an even worse state, suffering even more."I haven't committed any crimes. How can I accept my punishment?" Sebastian asked disinterestedly.Brayden sneered. "You're not the one who decides whether you've committed a crime or not. Come! Subdue this defiant man!"Subdue Sebastian? Who would dare to do such a thing?The law enforcement hall members exchanged looks.Upon seeing this, Egbert stepped forward and said arrogantly, "Young man, you've seen what I can do. Compared to me, you martial arts practitioners aren't worthy of mention at all. I'll be lenient on you because you're young and ignorant. Just give up and come quietly!"Egbert was different from ordinary deacons in the Martial Arts Court. He had been hired specially as a mystic spells expert.When compared with mystic spells or cultivation, so-called martial arts weren't worthy of mention at all.That was because all mystic spe
