Isabel had obviously been studying the product for the past few days with the technical department. A product that had been able to get rid of Marissa's blemishes within three hours when nothing had worked on them for over a decade had tremendous commercial potential.Sebastian nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it's better than I thought it would be.""Which bottle do you think would be better? The transparent one, or the pink one, or the blue one?" Isabel pointed at the bottles on the table, which were a variety of colors and shapes."I think this one is good," Henrietta said, picking up a pink bottle.She was a young woman, after all. She preferred bottles that looked more attractive. Aaron glanced at the bottles on the table and thought for a moment. He picked up one of the bottles and said, "This one's better."The one he had picked up was a transparent bottle, but it was larger in volume and could hold more.Obviously, the men thought of things in a more practical way.Seb
Sebastian rolled his eyes at Aaron. Why was he being so tactless? Did he have to mention that?Meanwhile, Hunter and two Yutarians in traditional Yutarian clothes were in a neighborhood of villas in the suburbs of Steinberg. They were sitting in a luxurious private room at Grande Club, sipping tea.At that moment, a black-clad man walked in and said something softly in Hunter's ear.Hunter couldn't help frowning. He instructed him at once, "Tell them to carry them in. After that, send someone to get Mr. Baxter in here."The black-clad man nodded and turned to leave."Mr. Stellus, Mr. Clarke and Mr. Monte have both been killed," Hunter said to one of the tanned Yutarian men."What?" Juan Stellus' eyebrow twitched. They had only been in Dramon for two days, and two of his subordinates had already gotten killed?In less than five minutes, several black-clad men carried two stretchers inside.The two Yutarian men on the stretchers had died horrible deaths. There were still pieces
"Are you looking down on the warriors of Yutaria, Mr. Baxter?" Gordon's contemptuous expression had provoked Juan's fury even more. The atmosphere in the room grew tense at once. Gordon was disdainful, and Juan was getting angrier. Seeing that they were about to come to blows, Hunter hastily tried to make peace. "Mr. Stellus, Mr. Baxter, please calm down. We're all friends here. I think we should bury our two loyal warriors first."He could not just stand by and watch Gordon and Juan fight with each other.They were on his territory, after all. No matter which of them got injured, or if one of them got killed by the other, it would cause trouble for him to no small degree.In the end, Hunter managed to coax both Juan and his friend Ferdinando Barez to leave, looking annoyed. Hunter arranged for the dead Yutarians to be sent to the crematorium. "Mr. Baxter, don't you think it was unwise for you to make that comment?" Hunter frowned slightly. Juan had been sent by the high-l
"What do you mean by that?" Juan shot to his feet and glared at Hunter.Hunter laughed quickly and said, "I only have good intentions. I was just thinking about your safety.""How good can a kid from Dramon be?" Ferdinando unsheathed his Yutarian machete, looking disdainful. The blade gleamed brightly."We'll kill him!" Juan pulled out his machete and sliced off a corner of the table. "If you really are bold enough to do so, I don't mind arranging for someone to lead you there," Hunter said, seizing the opportunity."Alright. We will go and meet this Ballard fellow tonight!" Juan fell prey to Hunter's goading in the end.Late at night, a black sedan brought Juan and Ferdinando into the Steinberg city area. The car finally stopped about a hundred feet away from the convenience store.A black-clad man pointed in the direction of the convenience store and asked, "Do you see that, gentlemen? Sebastian should be inside." With that, he got back into the car.Juan and Ferdinando un
"Mr. Ballard, it really is a misunderstanding." Juan tossed his Yutarian machete onto the ground and fell to his knees in front of Sebastian."Are you part of the Sanguis Cult?" Sebastian asked coldly."Since you know that we're from the Sanguis Cult, why would you still dare to—" Before Juan could finish, Sebastian's hand landed heavily on the top of his head.Sebastian looked at the corpses on the floor and took out some corpse-dissolving powder, which he sprinkled over their bodies. In the blink of an eye, the corpses had dissolved into a puddle of bloody water. Sebastian put their Yutarian machetes away.Although Yutarians were inferior on the whole, their machetes were made very well. He could use them for self-defense. Rose looked at the two puddles of bloody water on the floor and frowned as she said, "You know how to concoct corpse-dissolving powder?"It was a miraculous kind of drug that was only found in legends and had been lost for almost a thousand years. It was t
Sebastian only scoffed and walked out of Samuel's office without looking back. Traditional medicine was on the decline, and there were very few students in medical universities who chose to study it. Even if they signed up for it at first, it was only because the scores required for it were lower. They would just transfer to modern medicine after successfully entering the medical university.Samuel held all traditional medicine doctors in contempt, especially as he was running a university and not a hospital. It didn't matter how skilled Sebastian was. What Samuel wanted was to attract more students. Samuel's ability to attract students would determine the likeliness of his promotion. That was what he was truly concerned about, not the level of Sebastian's skills in medicine.After Sebastian had left, Samuel bent over the documents and continued to work on them. Suddenly, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Alexander, which made him laugh coldly. "Hello, Alexa
"Is it Ballard?" Howell had heard of Sebastian before. He was friends with both Walter and Alexander, and he had heard them mention Sebastian multiple times in the past.Therefore, Howell had also heard of many of Sebastian's legendary feats. It was just that he had never had a chance to meet him."How did you know?" Alexander asked, confused."You mention him to me every once in a while. How could I not know? It's just a pity that Dr. Ballard seems to be so busy. I've been planning to pay him a visit, but it's harder than getting to the moon! Do you have a way for me to meet him?" Howell asked eagerly."A way? Of course! I even want him to go and give a lecture over at your workplace!" Alexander said happily."Really? Where are you? I'll come and see you right now!" Howell almost dropped his phone in excitement.Alexander and Howell arranged to go and meet Sebastian together, which delighted the latter.He was a traditional medicine doctor himself, and he greatly admired a doct
Howell and Alexander chatted for a while more with Sebastian before bidding him goodbye.That afternoon, Madeline and her entourage arrived at the entrance to Steinberg Medical University. Samuel and all the staff and students were lined up neatly there, waiting for them.Robin got out of the black sedan first before opening the door for Madeline. After Madeline got out, she and the other foreigners walked over to the main doors.Samuel immediately shot a pointed look at two female students who were carrying flower garlands. The two students ran over to Madeline and presented her with them."Welcome! Thank you for coming to our university from so far away, Ms. Eddings." Samuel's hands were trembling with excitement.If he could satisfy Madeline, he would be sure to get promoted and get rich very quickly. "How are the preparations for the lecture, Mr. Lorson?" Robin asked, his brow furrowed.Samuel was truly frivolous. Why had he arranged for such a grand welcome ceremony when M
"My name is Reggie Joston. I'm the leader of Swordfyre Hall in the Wind Dancers. Greetings, Mr. Anton!" Reggie bowed slightly to Anton, and he spoke confidently.The leader of Swordfyre Hall?Anton was secretly surprised. It appeared that he had misunderstood the Wind Dancers. Although Reggie was young, Swordfyre Hall was renowned throughout Boren.He had only made a call, but the Wind Dancers had sent someone who was a leader. Not only that, Reggie was the lead apprentice of the Wind Dancers' sect leader. They were showing the Wentworths plenty of respect.At that thought, Anton smiled quickly and said, "Please sit down, Reggie!"As he spoke, he waved a hand at the butler, gesturing for him to go and prepare tea. Once Reggie was seated, he asked in surprise, "Who would dare to bully the Wentworths when you have such a vast fortune? The messenger told me that you've been provoked by a young man named Sebastian Ballard?"Anton nodded angrily. Although the Lynches were nothing
Seeing the determination on Sebastian's face, Nina had no choice but to nod and say, "Yes. I will do as you say. However, please allow me to go with you to the entrance of Mount Quiln tomorrow morning before I return to Steinberg, my lord!"Sebastian thought for a moment before he nodded and said, "Alright!"Nina squeezed out a smile when Sebastian gave his permission.After all, she had entered Mount Quiln with Sebastian before. She knew that it was very dangerous on that mountain. Even with Duo as his companion, Sebastian was sure to come across many obstacles on his journey!At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Nina opened it, and when she saw who it was, she informed Sebastian, "My lord, it's Joaquin.""Let him in," Sebastian said impassively. Joaquin walked into Sebastian's room and put on a wide smile as he said ingratiatingly, "Mr. Ballard, you mentioned that you'll be going into the mountains early tomorrow morning. Do you need me to send Mr. Gabbard and the ot
Sebastian crooked a finger at Jayden, who had gone out of his mind with fear. He was both sobbing and laughing as he went up to Sebastian.Sebastian slapped him.Jayden jolted with the shock, and blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth."Mr. Ballard, I was wrong! Please have mercy on me. After all, I didn't make any major mistakes!" Jayden said, falling to his knees.He didn't want his flesh sliced off until he was a mere skeleton, which was what had happened to Kayden."That slap is a lesson to you. Why can't you just do business properly?" Sebastian asked, frowning slightly."I'll remember this! From now on, I'm going to turn over a new leaf!"Sebastian looked down at Jayden, then waved a hand at him. After all, Jayden hadn't committed any major crimes and didn't deserve to die.Jayden thanked Sebastian profusely before fleeing from the Aequor.Joaquin glanced at Brayden and Darla and said coldly, "Inspector Jefferson, aren't you going to thank Mr. Ballard for not kill
Javier fell with a thump onto the floor. He stared dazedly as Kayden was tied to a long bench with a rope."Bring in the family members of the victim. Who from the law enforcement hall will carry out the punishment?" Sebastian demanded.He pulled out a silver needle and pierced one of Kayden's acupuncture points, which would make him more alert.When a man in a wheelchair was pushed into the hall by a young woman who looked very frail, Sebastian stood up quickly.He said to the young man, "Kayden is the reason your family's fallen apart. We'll torture him to death very soon.""That asshole! He deserves to be slashed a million times!" the young man yelled at Kayden, clenching his fists tightly."Don't get agitated. He won't die before he gets cut 7,000 times. Although you don't have the right to carry out the execution, you can splash salt water over his wounds!"Sebastian took a bucket from one of the law enforcement hall apprentices and placed it in front of the young man."Se
At least that man had not had to grovel to the perpetrators to thank them. Not only did Brayden have to grovel to the law enforcement hall men, he even had to thank them!After about four hours, when Kayden had pulled up his pants, he went over to Brayden and said in a slightly ashamed tone, "Inspector Jefferson, I… I had no choice!"He sounded as if he was completely innocent.Brayden wanted to murder him. Just a minute earlier, when Joaquin had called out his name, he had been shaking with excitement. He had even forgotten about the pain of having his crotch injured and lunged toward Darla like a hungry wolf. Now, he was standing in front of Brayden, acting innocent?Brayden had only gotten into this state because of Kayden!After sending away all the reporters, Joaquin sent a message to Sebastian. In less than ten minutes, Sebastian sauntered back into the restaurant. He glanced at Darla, who was lying on the floor with a vacant look in her eyes. Sebastian patted Brayden's sh
If the incident was broadcast, it would be sure to cause an uproar, and Boren would become the center of the storm.However, Sebastian had made up his mind, and Joaquin didn't dare to try and dissuade him. He had no choice but to do as Sebastian had commanded and call over the news teams from all three states' television stations.Since the head director of a state was calling them personally, none of them dared to refuse. In less than two hours, the news teams from all three state television stations had arrived and were in position."What news are we broadcasting today, Mr. Ballard?" a female reporter asked Sebastian.She had seen how messy the place was, and there didn't seem to be anything for them to report about."Later, these people are going to help a family improve the gene pool, and I need you to broadcast the entire process live. Before you do, please play a recording of a phone call from Inspector Jefferson," Sebastian said. He sent the recording of the phone call
"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
