"Of course! If that gorgeous woman hadn't caught Mr. Walsh's eye, do you think I'd have time to spend on him?" Cade said impatiently over the phone.He had put in a lot of effort to help Anton get hold of Nina.The scion on the phone with him was the owner of Lunar Tower. His name was Zephyr Venturia, and he was the son of Douglas Venturia.Rory dined there every day, so he was very familiar with Zephyr. If Sebastian was tactless enough to attack Zephyr, Rory would be sure to back the latter up. Even if Rory didn't do anything and just handed the incident over to the Martial Arts Court or let it be handled according to the rules of the martial arts community, Cade would still be able to take control and do whatever he pleased with Sebastian.Lunar Tower was part of the Venturias' territory, after all. According to the rules, if anyone caused any trouble on someone else's territory, they would have to pay according to the Venturias' requests. That was agreed upon by fellow members
Zephyr was behaving very rudely by the standards of the martial arts community. Hendrix took several deep breaths, but he still suppressed his anger in the end.Although he wasn't afraid of the Venturias, he didn't dare to offend them greatly. The martial arts community in Klane City was all connected, and the Venturias were particularly close to the Walshes. It would not do Hendrix any good to fall out with them.Besides, Zephyr had only greeted them, and Sebastian wasn't part of the martial arts community. It was already a great boon for an ordinary person to be allowed to dine there.Sebastian was still conversing with Nina in a low voice about the emerald bangle, and he clearly didn't think anything of Zephyr at all.Zephyr felt humiliated when he noticed that Sebastian and Nina were both ignoring him. Lunar Tower belonged to his family, after all. That bitch should show him some respect, shouldn't she?"I'm speaking to you, pretty lady," he said to Nina, giving her a wide g
Hendrix felt that Sebastian was just scared of Zephyr. He regretted telling Sebastian so much.He was such a loser that even Zephyr scared him. What use was there in telling him so many things about the martial arts community?"I'm talking to you! Are you deaf?" Zephyr yelled furiously at Sebastian, looking as if a fire was about to burst out of his eyes.Sebastian didn't react, but Nina frowned and asked him, "Do you hear a dog barking?"There was a series of coughs and muffled laughter from the people in the hall.Shirley glared disdainfully at Nina and said coldly, "Hmph! If you're not careful about who you offend, any man who falls for you will be very unlucky!"Zephyr turned bright red, then pale. If it had been anyone else, he would have slapped her. However, Anton had his eye on Nina, and Zephyr didn't dare to do anything to her. Despite this, he was determined to get back at her, which was why he decided to vent his anger on Sebastian instead.Zephyr suppressed his ang
"What?" Rory was about to intervene when he realized that Sebastian had slapped the men in white training clothes to death without even moving from his seat. It was clear that Sebastian was much more than he seemed! However, how powerful would Sebastian have to be to have escaped even Rory's notice? Was he at the second level of Eldoria? But how old was Sebastian?He could only be 24 or 25 years old at most. How could he be so skilled at that age? Rory must have been careless. He hadn't even noticed him, which was why he had been mistaken with his judgment of him. However, he was just trying to comfort himself. Even Zephyr broke out into a cold sweat of fear when he saw that Sebastian had killed five or six of his men with a single move. "How… How dare you commit murder in Lunar Tower?" As he spoke, Zephyr backed several steps away to put a distance between himself and Sebastian. However, he couldn't escape. Sebastian flicked his wrist and a silver fork flew out of h
Tomas?Rory couldn't help looking sideways at Zephyr. Most people didn't know that name, because he was one of the most famous apprentices of a certain person in Yutaria.Even Rory didn't dare to say the name of that person, which showed how powerful Tomas' mentor was.Sebastian just laughed disdainfully. He didn't care who Tomas was. If the Sanguis Cult was going to keep hanging around, Sebastian wouldn't mind going to Yutaria himself to pull it out by its roots!However, Zephyr thought he saw Sebastian hesitate for a moment, so he misunderstood and thought that Tomas' infamy had scared Sebastian.He laughed viciously and demanded, "Now you're scared, you brat? Don't even think about letting the events of today just pass!"Zephyr felt that he would now be able to make demands and get both money and women from Sebastian.He was gleefully thinking about making Sebastian leave Nina behind while also paying several hundred million or even billions to assuage the Venturias' anger.
The Warriors who had been trying to persuade Sebastian couldn't help frowning. They all felt that Sebastian didn't know what was good for him.They were trying to help him, but Sebastian was now telling Zephyr to break his own legs!"What did you say? You want me to break my own legs? Are you deaf? I told you that my family's ally is Tomas Argento! Is this your first day joining the martial arts community? Damn it!"Zephyr was almost insane with fury. He had already mentioned Tomas' name, and yet Sebastian still wanted him to break his own legs?The fact was that Zephyr wasn't sure whether or not his family would be able to use their connection with Tomas or not. All he knew was that his grandfather had personally gone to visit Tomas a while ago. As for what Tomas' answer had been, Zephyr still had no idea.All he knew was that his grandfather had started sounding much more confident after that visit. There had been several times when he had even ignored what the Wentworths had
"Blake asked you to look after me? You really do inflate your own importance, don't you? Even Blake wouldn't dare to say something like that!" Sebastian gazed coldly at Hendrix.Hendrix clutched his numb cheek and stood up. He glared at Sebastian, but before he could speak, he spat out a few teeth. Blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth."How dare you hit me!" he said through gritted teeth as he pointed at Sebastian.He had always felt that Sebastian was just a friend of Blake's, or perhaps someone who hung around with the Warrior League. Even if he had defeated Ethan, so what?There were plenty of people in Boren who were stronger than Ethan. Sebastian didn't count for anything.Blake had given him special instructions to be very respectful to Sebastian, but Hendrix hadn't been willing to do so at all.Why should he, the chairman of the Mount Klane Martial Arts Association of Boren, go personally to the airport to greet a young man who was in his 20s? What made him so m
When Hendrix had first said something like that to him, Rory had begun to suspect his motives. However, after hearing the proof from Sebastian's lips, Rory's suspicions had become even stronger."Sebastian, I can't believe I kept trying to help you. This morning, when Mr. Hardy asked me to take you here, I was still trying to persuade him not to. Now you're repaying my kindness with a stab in the back and slandering me!"Hendrix could see that there was no way he could explain it, so he had no choice but to try and lead the conversation topic away.His little tricks weren't enough to deceive Sebastian at all, especially as Nina was sitting beside him. She was even more shrewd."You weren't afraid that Mr. Durham Senior and I would get into some kind of conflict. You're just worried that something might happen to me," Sebastian countered. He continued, "If anything did happen to me, Blake or members of the Warrior League would come personally to Boren. If Blake comes, all those de
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
