At that moment, Hunter received news of Jace's death."Jace is dead?" Hunter's expression changed drastically when he heard the news, but he became calm very quickly. He wasn't concerned about the death at all. However, with Jace's death, the feud between the Beckards and Sebastian would go beyond the point of no return.Late at night, a strange, extremely thin figure in a burial suit pushed the door open to Hunter's room and entered."Mr. Reynolds, things aren't progressing smoothly at all. All four of the experts sent to protect Jace have fallen, and even Jace himself has died at Sebastian's hand," Hunter said to Elton, looking grim.He didn't feel sad for Jace. It was just that the four martial artists were top experts sent by the Sword Towers to ensure Hunter's safety!They had all just died for nothing at Sebastian's hand. How could Hunter explain this to the Sloanes if he didn't do anything?Elton frowned slightly and said, "Oh? Jace is dead? Mr. Sloane, you aren't going
Hunter explained. "Even if someone like him died a hundred times over, Mr. Beckard Senior still wouldn't get angry. The most he would do is to send someone to teach Sebastian a little lesson for the sake of the Beckards' reputation. "Besides, Jace has been disloyal to the Beckards for a long time, and every single person in his family has been hoping for him to die sooner. Why would they send a large bunch of experts to avenge him?"Elton couldn't help frowning at what Hunter had said. "With our current abilities, we can't do anything about that crazy thug, Sebastian. Mr. Sloane, can you—"Hunter's expression darkened suddenly, and he interrupted him in a cold voice. "Mr. Reynolds, do you think that I'm in any position to ask the Sloanes for help right now? "The four people that Sebastian murdered tonight were experts sent by Sword Towers, but even they have fallen. Do you want me to ask Sword Towers for help personally? Or do you want me and Ethan to divide the Mirror of Rain be
The car stopped about two streets away from the convenience store.Ivan pointed to the convenience store in the distance and said, "The target is inside. Find a place to hide until we shoot the target dead!"Hunter took a sniper up to a nearby building.Sebastian's convenience store was a stand-alone, one-story building. Any other building could become a convenient high point for a sniper to lie in wait from.Hunter followed Ivan up to the roof and took out a pair of infrared binoculars. He looked in the direction of the convenience store. Sebastian was sitting on the couch, meditating. He could see the universe's constellation map, but Hunter couldn't see it at all. All he could see from a distance was that Sebastian was sitting on the couch with his eyes closed."What's he doing, sir?" the sniper beside Ivan asked curiously as he opened his scope."Who cares what he's doing? Shoot him dead on the spot!" Ivan said in a low voice as he adjusted the focus on his binoculars. "S
"Mr. Reynolds! Save me!" Hunter had gone pale with fear. His palms were slippery with sweat as he held onto the gun."It's alright. He's gone." Elton pointed.Hunter realized that the dark shadow was drifting further and further away from him. He had been so nervous that he hadn't noticed at all."What's going on, Mr. Reynolds? My men—" Hunter looked down at the corpses on the ground. The shot had gone right through their foreheads. It was probably the work of a sniper rifle."Your men were killed by their own bullets," Elton said, looking at the corpses. Killed by their own bullets? Could bullets turn back?"What was that dark shadow?" Hunter asked, feeling shaken. "It's a ghost, otherwise known as a spirit from the underworld," Elton answered.That was the spirit that he had once raised.Hunter shook his head violently, and he swung around to stare in the direction of the convenience store. "Damn it! I'll go looking for him right now!"Not only had he lost four snipers in
Although Hunter hadn't succeeded in assassinating Sebastian that day, it had been a warning to him. If it had been Rose or Whitney staying there that night, the consequences would have been dire.However, Sebastian had already broken through to the eighth level of the Energy Refining Technique. According to the different realms in the martial arts world, Sebastian was now an expert in the fifth level of the Celestial realm.However, it was impossible for him to take care of everything on his own. Once Sebastian made a mistake, even a slight one, the people around him would end up hurt!After thinking about it, Sebastian finally turned to Belinda. Now, only the Warrior League could spare a hand to protect the people around Sebastian.Sebastian stepped forward, and the land began moving rapidly under his feet!That was the Wind Phantom move that he had just learned from the Sacred Medicine Secret Annals.The Wind Phantom move was very useful. In less than half an hour, he had reache
Even if Mike's men hadn't left, they would be no match for Elton at all.Belinda smiled brightly and nodded. Sebastian had saved her daughter's life, and she couldn't refuse such a minor request."Madam Dragon, please allow me to be blunt. There has been no precedent of people from the Warrior League acting as bodyguards for people who have nothing to do with us," one of the elders said as he stood up, looking displeased.His name was Bertie Zoll, and he was one of the seven main elders of the Warrior League. He was at the third level of the Celestial realm and a respected figure in the Warrior League. In fact, even Belinda had to show him respect at certain moments."Mr. Zoll, Mr. Ballard isn't that kind of person. Since he asked to borrow them, he's sure to return them." Belinda looked pointedly at Sebastian, as if she was waiting for him to speak up."Don't worry, Madam Dragon. I'll be sure to return them within ten days," Sebastian said, bowing. Yet another old man laughed c
Blake smiled contemptuously. These old men were much too arrogant."What do you think, Madam Dragon?" Blake ignored Drake and the others and spoke directly to Belinda with his head lowered."The Five Great Mountains requires Mr. Ballard to defeat three of the respected elders of the Warrior League. What do you think, Mr. Ballard?" Belinda was smiling brightly. Blake was so quick-witted. He had silently set up a trap for the elders and pushed them in. In a battle, none of the six Warrior League elders present in the hall would be a match for Sebastian."Let's do it appropriately." Sebastian smiled and nodded.The elders shot Sebastian a sideway glance. They felt that he was being very bold. He was obviously hinting to them to say that he would be merciful. "You are a very bold young man!" The old man sitting right at the end huffed coldly at Sebastian.His name was Terry Henson, and although he was ranked last among the seven elders, he was actually the strongest among them.
"I admit defeat. You are more powerful than you appear." Dylan had turned red. He bowed to Sebastian.He knew that Sebastian had held back on his strength when hitting him. Otherwise, there was no way he would still be standing there unharmed."You're useless! What have I always taught you?" Terry stood up angrily. Since his apprentice had been defeated, he would have to regain their pride himself. Sebastian looked up at the sky, which was slowly turning brighter. He smiled and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to battle me? Why don't you just do it all at once? If we have to do things one at a time, it'll be morning by the time we're done." Elara had been watching from the second floor, and she couldn't help feeling nervous for Sebastian after hearing what he had said. Even Belinda wouldn't dare to be so cocky. Terry and the others were all top experts in the Celestial realm and above. Did Sebastian have a death wish?"Ms. Lucox, don't pinch me." Elara had been pinching h
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
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
