Before Sebastian could speak, Rose held her dagger and said icily, "They should not be forgiven!""Sebastian, before they left, I heard them mention the Irongate Sect and someone named Romulus Chastain. Did they come to get revenge on us?" Rosalie looked thoughtful as she recalled what had happened.Romulus? Sebastian inhaled slightly. Had the Irongate Sect come right to their door to fight? Did they have a death wish?"My lord, calm down. Once we get news, we'll make them pay with blood!" Lyanna said frostily. Sebastian turned to look at Lyanna. In the past, he might not have agreed to let her do so. After all, he hadn't intended to destroy the Irongate Sect. He had only killed Devin because he had no choice.However, the Irongate Sect had crossed the line with their actions that day. Even if Lyanna hadn't mentioned it, Sebastian wouldn't have forgiven Romulus and the rest."Seb, don't be impulsive! Romulus is no ordinary man. According to the information from the special force
The security guards at the door were shaking their heads and sighing. "Oh, what a pity for those two. Why did they have to offend Mr. Chastain?" one of the security guards said regretfully.The other security guard waved a hand and said, "They didn't offend him. They just kept tailing him. Isn't it practically a death wish for an ordinary guy to follow a martial arts practitioner?"He sighed in resignation.They had clearly witnessed what happened.Sebastian hurried up to them and asked, "What did you see just now?"The two security guards jumped in fright and hastily took two steps backward. They eyed Sebastian and said, "Young man, I advise you to mind your own business. Two have already been crippled, and you don't want to be the third one. You'd better leave quickly."The security guards were being kind in advising Sebastian to leave. They didn't want him to get beaten into a cripple by Romulus. The first two security guards had been much more well-built than Sebastian. How
However, the security guards couldn't stop Sebastian at all. In less than a second, they had been flung aside by him.Some of the security guards stood up defiantly to charge at him once again."You'd better stay still, or else you'll die!" Sebastian said with an icy look in his eyes.Rosalie and Whitney had arrived as well.When the security guards who had been getting ready to charge forward saw the women, they stopped short and didn't take a single step further.Sebastian had been able to fling them aside, which showed that he was not an ordinary person. If they harmed the women with him, they were sure that things wouldn't end well for them."Are you all deaf? Stop all of them, or else I'll break your legs!" Eric bellowed at the security guards, who had all fallen to the ground.Before the security guards could move, Rose thrust out her dagger from behind Rosalie. There was a flash of silver, and Eric's legs were sliced off at the knee."Aargh!" he yelled in pain.With a t
The flute was clearly made of refined iron. It gleamed coldly under the lights."Disrespectful? Just a lesson?" Zane and Whitney repeated. They had also arrived in the hall.Whitney looked angrily at the middle-aged man seated beside Romulus. He had two long knife scars on his face, and his left sleeve was empty."He injured one of our waiters for no reason, and I only went up to say a few things to him. What right did he have to slap me?"Women took their looks very seriously, and Whitney was no exception. The man's slap was still stinging even at that moment!Besides, how could she go out with a clear handprint on her face?The middle-aged man beside Romulus shot to his feet and snorted derisively as he said, "You bitch! You have no right to speak in front of Mr. Chastain."Romulus turned to look at him, indicating for him to be quiet. The middle-aged man shut his mouth quickly. Romulus was arrogant, but he wasn't conceited enough to think of himself as invincible. Before
Romulus' expression changed at once.However, no matter how much he looked at him, Sebastian just seemed like an ordinary person. He didn't seem like an expert at all.He couldn't believe that an expert at the seventh level of the Celestial realm like Devin would have died at Sebastian's hand!However, Romulus had heard several rumors about Sebastian as soon as he arrived in Steinberg. It was just that most of those people had suffered huge losses because of him.Romulus frowned and said, "Sebastian, many martial arts sects are your enemies. Don't you know that you should keep a low profile? If you're willing to take me as your mentor, I can plead on your behalf. At least you'll have an ally in the future."Romulus had made his intention clear. He wanted to use this as an opportunity to make a powerful man like Sebastian part of the Irongate Sect.He felt that Sebastian was still working on his own and was now being targeted by the martial arts sects. No matter how capable he was
Romulus could sense that Sebastian wasn't someone he could fight against. He seemed to remember seeing the sword in Sebastian's hand once at Mount Wandale's headquarters. However, wasn't Purity the treasure of Wandale? Why would it be with Sebastian?"It's your turn now. Once you go to hell, teach them how to be a good person!" Sebastian said coldly.Romulus hastily threw his sword aside and bowed to Sebastian. "Mr. Ballard, I am also a martial arts apprentice. I only joined the Irongate Sect over a decade ago. Please let me go as a fellow practitioner."Romulus could only pretend that he was an apprentice of Wandale to try and make Sebastian relent.Wandale was the most prestigious and one of the founding members of the Nine Sects. Sebastian couldn't harm him and risk offending the Nine Sects, after all.It was Romulus' last hope. He knew better than anyone that he was sure to die in Sebastian's hands if they continued to fight."Which sect you're from has nothing to do with m
Romulus was the left sentinel of the Irongate Sect and was very influential. He was also the apprentice of Peak Three in Sapientia's Cesum Court. Many sect leaders in the martial arts community showed respect to Romulus, so it went without saying the same would happen in a small place like Steinberg. When the news of Romulus' death reached the Martial Arts Court, even the head director wet his pants in fear.Even though he hated Romulus, he should have died anywhere but in Steinberg! If Sapientia started asking questions, how was he going to answer?"Who killed Romulus?" A middle-aged, stern-looking man in a white robe slammed the table angrily in the Martial Arts Court as he spoke. He was the head director of the Steinberg Martial Arts Court, Phineas Tuxley. He was also a top expert at the ninth level of the Celestial realm.Although the Martial Arts Association had undergone a lot of changes recently, Phineas hadn't bothered to get involved in any of them.After all, the Ma
Phineas pushed the door open, looking sinister. The moment he walked in, he turned his head aside quickly.A well-built, middle-aged man was lying on a massage bed. He was naked and had four or five masseuses with him.Phineas was the head director. He couldn't just ignore such a crude scene. How did Alaric get all that energy? He was using up so much, but he didn't look tired at all."Well, if it isn't Mr. Tuxley! It seems you have the time to come and see me today. Are you here to have some fun as well?" Alaric asked. He sat up and wrapped a towel around his waist. Phineas covered half his face and turned his head to say, "Mr. Donnelly, Romulus was killed by Sebastian at Scentia an hour ago. Other victims include two of his apprentices and 18 other followers. None of them were spared.""What did you say?" Alaric shot up from his seat in shock when he heard the news.Romulus wasn't as agile as Alaric, but he was the true pillar of the Fury Scimitars. After all, he had the s
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
Brayden sneered. "Kill you and cover this up? You overestimate yourselves. This is an act of protecting officials!" The bare fact of the matter was that they were going to kill everyone who knew about the Berkeleys' depraved acts. Once they had done so, the Berkeleys' perfect image would be restored. "Do you think that it's reasonable and lawful for Kayden to act the way he does?" Sebastian asked in a cold, accusing voice. "There's no helping it. Those in power must have some privileges. That's an accepted fact in the world. It's your fault for not being part of this class of people. If you're going to blame anyone, blame yourselves for being born in the wrong family!" Brayden said smugly as he shot Egbert Galen a glance. Egbert strode over to Kayden and crouched down to inspect his injuries. He tapped him with a finger. "Aargh!" The pain made huge beads of sweat drip down Kayden's face."Alright. You can stand up and take a few steps, Mr. Kayden!" Egbert said, putting his
"Oh?" Brayden glanced twice at Sebastian before asking, "What crime has Mr. Kayden committed? Tell me!" Sebastian couldn't be bothered to argue with him and just played the phone recording. The two old men frowned involuntarily when they finished listening to it."You're Inspector Jefferson, aren't you? I'd like to ask you how anyone could want to sleep with a bride at a wedding banquet in front of thousands of guests. Is he an animal? Don't the Berkeleys do this sort of thing in private?"Does this mean that when someone in the Berkeley family gets married, any of the guests or even a mere passerby can have their way with the bride in front of all their friends and family?"Javier turned red, then pale as he listened. He pointed at Sebastian and cursed him loudly. "You bastard! Stop talking nonsense!""Inspector Jefferson, since you admire Mr. Kayden's genes so much, why don't you let him improve your family's gene pool as well? You should especially let Mr. Kayden help out wi
Two black-clad men came up to the car door and opened it for Brayden, who then got out of the car. As he alighted, two elderly men also got out of the black car behind him. They came up beside Brayden and said, "Inspector Jefferson!" Brayden clasped his hands behind his back and nodded as he said, "Mr. Galen, Mr. Irving. Come and get rid of this nuisance with me today. Remember, we must not show any mercy!" The two old men nodded slightly and said, "We'll do as you say, Inspector Jefferson!"Brayden nodded slightly and said to Jayden, "Lead the way!" Jayden hastily gestured for them to go ahead. He led them happily into the Aequor.He had fled the hotel just a while ago, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have transformed into a different person. He walked into the hotel with his chest puffed up, and his entire demeanor had changed. The attendants on the first floor looked at him in surprise. "Did that handsome young guy go and get himself an invigorating shot of so
