To a centuries-old spirit king like Lyanna, who was now restored to prime condition, the spirit-subduing spell felt like nothing at all."Kill her!" Elton didn't know why the spirit-subduing spell had no effect on Lyanna, but he could feel he was in danger.He pointed at Lyanna and yelled at the corpse puppet, who roared angrily and lunged straight at her.Sebastian said tauntingly, "You're supposed to be a practitioner of the Way of Wisdom. Why do you try to kill people so casually? Hasn't your mentor ever told you that you should have goodness in your heart?"Sebastian gestured to Lyanna.She raised her hand gently and activated a blast of intense ghostly energy. The temperature around them dropped drastically.Hunter couldn't help shuddering, and Elton shivered.The corpse puppet stopped three steps away from Lyanna and was unable to go further.The strong ghostly energy seemed to form a wall of air, keeping the corpse puppet stuck outside it. No matter how it howled, it cou
Elton answered Hunter's question by launching an attack, and Hunter felt a slight pain in his chest.When he looked down, he realized that there was a bloody hole in his chest, while Elton seemed to be holding something in his hand. It was moving. It was Hunter's heart!"You…" Before Hunter could finish, he swayed slightly and fell heavily to the ground.Lyanna looked sympathetically at Hunter, who was lying in a puddle of blood, and she said to Sebastian, "My lord, the spell has been broken."Lyanna's figure disappeared instantly."Sebastian, didn't you want to get revenge for your woman? Now that he's dead, I got revenge for you. There are no grudges between us." Elton turned to look fixedly at Sebastian.Elton had killed Hunter because he had no other choice. Technically, Hunter was still useful as long as they didn't have the Mirror of Rain. However, Elton was terrified because if Sebastian did not let him, he wouldn't be able to escape Neo Ravine. Although Lyanna had u
The corpse puppet, which had dissolved into a pile of bones, had also disappeared.Hunter was pointing a gun at Elton's head. As for Elton, he was holding a slippery heart in his hand, but it wasn't Hunter's. It was the corpse puppet's. He had killed his own corpse puppet.Sebastian was holding a long sword and looking impassively at him.Elton looked up at the scarlet sky. The spell was still intact. Everything that had just happened must have been an illusion.Even Gary, who had come back, couldn't help swallowing. He couldn't believe what he had just seen!Elton was standing there, looking like an absolute fool as he rushed over to the corpse puppet and pulled out its heart.As a result, he had severed the connection between himself and the corpse puppet, which fell to the ground with a thump. Elton had pointed at the corpse puppet and prattled at it for a while.Lyanna hadn't even lifted a finger. Elton had played out the whole thing on his own. Hunter had watched as E
Elton was furious with what Gary had said.They hadn't even started the fight yet. How did Gary know that Elton would not be able to defeat Sebastian? How could he have the audacity to ask for the sword already?"No problem. That sword isn't of much use to me anyway." Sebastian grinned and stepped forward.Elton held the long sword and flourished it as he also took a step forward. He wasn't confident in facing Sebastian. However, it wasn't that he had no confidence in his own abilities. It was just that Lyanna was too much of an unknown factor. She could make him hallucinate at any moment.When it came to fights at close quarters, a moment's distraction could lose him his life. And if hallucinations were added on top of that, it would be even harder for him to win."Go ahead." Sebastian smiled widely and shook Purity, and the valley glowed with a flash of lightning."Sebastian, if you use the art of illusion to kill me, I will never accept it, even in death," Elton said pointed
However, within the emerald pendant, there were two fish-shaped symbols swimming through it in an endless cycle. One was white, and the other was red.The glow had come from the white fish-shaped symbol."It's the Lumigo pendant!" Sebastian cried out in surprise.In the Sacred Medicine Secret Annals, there had been records of many kinds of celestial and even sacred treasures. The Lumigo pendant was one of the Ten Sacred Treasures.It was said that those who obtained this treasure could master light and dark energy and gain knowledge of the heavens and the earth.Could Elton have such a legendary treasure in his possession?"What's that, Mr. Ballard?" Gary craned his neck to look at the emerald pendant in Sebastian's hand. "It's just a piece of emerald. Nothing to get excited about," Sebastian lied casually.Beside them, Lyanna stared intently at the Lumigo pendant in Sebastian's hand. She knew more than anyone how valuable it was. It was a pioneering treasure in metempsychosis
After Sebastian took Whitney back to the pharmaceutical factory, Gary called over the apprentices that he had sent previously. After giving them a stern rebuking, he finally left with Sebastian.After the lesson they had learned, the eight apprentices were divided into two groups. One of them would shadow Whitney at all times to prevent a similar incident from happening again.Early the next morning, Zane was looking through his Instagram while eating breakfast. When he saw Sebastian walk into the dining room, he hastily held out his phone. "Look, Seb!"Sebastian turned to look, and Zane frowned as he said, "Why does this strange person look so familiar? I just can't remember where I've seen him before."Sebastian studied the face in the photo, and his heart sank. It was none other than Hunter! He had been looking right at the camera, and his features were crystal clear.However, Hunter's face was very swollen, and he walked like someone who had polio. In fact, the shoe on his lef
After all, no matter how many martial arts experts there were in an organization of assassins like the Slaughter Gods, they could never measure up to a proper sect.Besides, the Sword Towers was one of the most prestigious sects, and they were on the same level as that of the Warrior League."Oh? There are very few people who would still be alive for so long after offending the Slaughter Gods. It seems that he has an interesting background." There was a sudden, sharp gleam in Roy's rheumy eyes."That wouldn't be strange. In my opinion, he must be part of one of the mystic martial arts sects, and it's very likely that he's from one of the most prestigious sects. He's probably just been confined to the city until now."How could a third-rate organization of assassins like the Slaughter Gods be any match for someone like him?"Brendan scoffed disdainfully, adding, "If it had been Ethan, the Slaughter Gods would probably already be history."He didn't mean to belittle the Slaughter G
Roy's expression relaxed slightly upon seeing that Brendan had relented. At that moment, a maid who was carrying tea accidentally spilled it on him."Mr. Sloane Senior, I… I didn't do it on purpose," the maid said fearfully.Roy looked down at his suit and smiled faintly. "It's alright. We're not saints. Everyone's bound to make a mistake sometimes. I know you didn't mean to do it."The maid breathed a long sigh of relief.However, Roy suddenly flicked the paper fan he was holding. There was an icy flash, and the maid's legs were sliced off at the knee."Although none of us are saints, that is no reason for you to make mistakes as you wish." Roy's gaze sharpened as he said to the black-clad men waiting outside the door. "Drag her out and cut off her hands."The maid didn't even have time to plead for mercy before she was dragged outside by two black-clad men.Roy only stood from his seat when it was late at night, and he gazed out at the night sky through the window."Sebasti
It was just the second attack, yet Blake had managed to injure Caleb so severely.Caleb clutched his left rib and bent over. It wasn't an act, because Blake knew how much force he had used in that move. He had broken at least two ribs with that punch.Ordinary people couldn't endure the pain of broken bones, especially if the ribs had been broken with blunt force. It would be extremely painful.Blake smiled slightly and asked, "You think you can injure Mr. Parham and get away with it? Hmph!"With a wide grin, he cracked his knuckles loudly. As Caleb watched Blake slowly walk over to him, he begged for mercy, his face twisted in pain. "Don't kill me! I didn't do it on purpose! Please spare me!"Caleb backed away as he spoke, but Blake was unmoved. His mission was to kill Caleb.As Blake moved closer, Caleb couldn't back away any further. When he was backed into a corner, Caleb's eyes widened with fear as he stared at Blake, walking toward him with deliberate steps.Everyone was
Caleb and Reuben were delighted at what Belinda had said. However, Saul shot them meaningful looks. Did they really think the Warrior League was easy to deal with, even without Sebastian?The Warrior League was filled with experts. If the two of them fought against them rashly, they would be sure to die."Wait!" Saul stepped forward to block Gary and the others."What now?" Belinda asked coldly."There are so many of you. If all of you fight against them while saying that it's a one-on-one battle, no one could withstand that! We need to set a limit, at least," Saul said seriously."We'll only fight three battles," Belinda said calmly.That meant that the Warrior League would only send three people, while Caleb and Reuben couldn't have anyone helping them.In other words, it was three against two. Still, they had to accept those conditions. It was the best they would get.Otherwise, Belinda only had to give the command and it wouldn't be a one-on-one battle, it would be a bloo
"Forget it. Since you didn't die, we won't pursue the matter further with you. We've already enjoyed that young woman anyway, so we won't punish you for your crime," Reuben said, grinning scornfully.They could tell that Belinda and the others had turned up in such a large group to get revenge on them.However, they had special identities. Would Belinda be bold enough to offend two hugely influential forces in Yvanton for the sake of an old man?Was the Warrior League really powerful enough to offend Yvanton? Besides, the Juwanian bishop in Yvanton was also renowned in the martial arts community."If the two of them have done anything disrespectful to the Warrior League, I apologize on their behalf. Yvanton is willing to compensate you for what happened today. You can name your price," Saul said seriously.Even he believed that Belinda and the others wouldn't dare push for revenge now. After all, who would dare to kill Jorvahn's grandson?Belinda scoffed. "So what if he's the Juw
Saul turned as pale as a sheet after hearing what Sebastian had said. He stared blankly at him for a long time before asking Belinda, "Madam Dragon, is this your intention as well?"Belinda nodded calmly and said, "Do you want one to die or everyone to die? You can decide."Saul took several deep breaths, but he didn't dare to answer her. It wouldn't be hard for the Warrior League to wipe all of them out. After all, they were in Dramon, and they were on the Warrior League's territory. Who would dare to oppose them?"Hurry! Tell Abraham and the others to get out here. If they're not here within five minutes, they'll be ordered to kill themselves!" Saul said to one of the Yvantonian men."No," Blake interjected coldly. "You no longer have five minutes. You have two minutes left!" He raised his right arm at the black-clad men around him. There was a clatter as the Warrior League members pulled out their weapons. In the glow of the moonlight, countless gleaming knives and swords sh
According to the Steinberg Martial Arts Court's arrangements, Warriors from various countries had been assigned to different areas. Yvanton had been placed in a villa in the mountains in the western suburbs. There were around 300 guest rooms there. Before the Warriors of Yvanton and the reporters had moved in, it had been emptied completely.The Yvantonian Warriors had lit campfires in the yard and were singing and dancing. Suddenly, a line of SUVs stopped at the entrance, and countless black-clad men surrounded the entire villa at once. Blake walked into the yard, looking murderous. He clasped his hands behind his back and said coldly, "Everyone, gather in the yard within five minutes. Those who are late or absent will be killed!""Killed!" Over 200 of the Warrior League martial arts experts yelled simultaneously. They were all at the third level of the Celestial realm.The Yvantonian Warriors and reporters in the yard all gave Blake looks of surprise."Hey, who are you? Why
Although Belinda had clashed with the Warrior League elders in the past, they had all watched her grow up and supported her in becoming the leader of the Warrior League.Belinda had been filled with grief and fury at the sight of a severely injured Edward, and she had suffered great torment. She felt as if a member of her family had been attacked and injured badly.Now, watching him regain consciousness, she was overwhelmed with emotion. Tears welled up in her eyes despite herself."Oh…" Edward murmured weakly before turning to look at Sebastian, who stood beside him. "Thank you, Mr. Ballard. I owe you my life." He coughed a few more times, but there was no longer any blood."You can all help Mr. Parham sit up. He still has some clotted blood in his system. Moving around will help him dislodge the blood, and it'll speed up his recovery," Sebastian said to the crowd. Elara and Blake hastily helped Edward up from the stretcher. The moment his feet touched the floor, he began coug
Sebastian was being so sincere to the members of the Warrior League. Even though their hearts had always been as hard as stone, they couldn't help but feel moved."Gentlemen, we got to know each other because of the conflict between us," Sebastian said with a smile. "I came here in a rush, but I've had some free time recently and I've prepared some energy replenishing pills. Send someone over tomorrow morning to get them from me."The Warrior League elders' eyes welled with gratitude. Anyone would want a friend like Sebastian."Mr. Ballard, if you need anything from us in the future, we will accept it. We'd go through hell and high water without complaint!""Yes, without complaint!" The moment the elders finished speaking, the rest of the Warrior League apprentices echoed their agreement in unison. "Mr. Ballard, you're the first person in a century to win the approval of all the Warrior League members!" Belinda said admiringly.The more she looked at Sebastian, the more she li
"Madam Dragon, don't worry. I'll do my best to save him," Sebastian assured her. He tossed the nine golden needles out casually. They seemed to have a soul of their own as they pricked over a dozen main acupuncture points on Edward's body.Finally, they sank into several main acupuncture points. The ends of the nine golden needles were quivering incessantly, emitting a faint buzzing sound.Maxwell couldn't help but gasp. He blurted, "The Nine Revival Needles!"It was a legendary, almost divine acupuncture technique. It was said that the famous healer Handock had built his reputation using this method.The first person who had used it was the miracle doctor Benzo, who had lived in the early Quorn era. However, the acupuncture technique had become lost after Ambroise. That was why no miracle doctors had emerged in Dramon ever since."Shut up!" Belinda snapped coldly.Maxwell immediately fell silent and stared unblinkingly at the nine golden needles on Edward's body.He was als
"We don't need to disturb them while they're resting. Let's go," Sebastian said, beckoning to Blake and Elara.Soon, they arrived at Ventus Estate. Bertie, Drake, Terry, and Gary were all crowded around a stretcher, wiping away their tears. Lying motionless on it was Edward.They had been friends for years. How could they just watch him die?"Everyone, move aside! Mr. Ballard is here!" Blake announced as he walked inside.The Warrior League members crowded around the door hastily moved aside, clearing a path for Sebastian and the others to walk through.Belinda was sitting in the main seat, looking as white as a sheet. Sebastian could sense her rage."Madam Dragon," he greeted, inclining his head slightly.Belinda turned to look at him and forced a smile. "Mr. Ballard, I'm sorry to trouble you yet again."He smiled slightly and replied, "As you've said, I'm a friend of the Warrior League."He walked over to Edward and bent down to examine him. Edward's eyes were tightly shut
