Whitney was handling documents in her office when she received a call."Hello?" Whitney frowned when she saw the stranger's number.The voice on the other end of the phone came across menacingly. "Are you Whitney Sutton?""Yes, who is this?" Whitney asked, furrowing her brow."Sebastian is your husband, right? He has offended Mr. Carson. If he doesn't want to die, he should come to the Celestial Tower to apologize!"The person on the phone spoke coldly before abruptly hanging up.Whitney's face paled. When she was about to ask something, the caller had already ended the call. Immediately, Whitney was distracted.Sebastian had offended someone? Mr. Carson? Daniel?Whitney's expression turned grave in an instant.She had heard of Daniel before. In Steinberg, he ranked just below Hans, a ruthless individual!How could Sebastian have offended him?If he wanted to deal with Sebastian, wouldn't Sebastian be in grave danger?"Mabel!" In her urgency, Whitney called out to Mabel o
Upon hearing Whitney's name, the person in charge nodded and said, "Ah, so you're Ms. Sutton. Please follow me."Whitney followed the man until they reached Daniel's private room on the fifth floor. As they entered, they saw a lean man with a sinister appearance sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigar. There were also two hot women massaging him."Ms. Sutton, you truly live up to your reputation as the beauty of Steinberg. Seeing you in person, you're even more stunning than the rumors say. You're gorgeous indeed," Daniel said, eyeing Whitney with a smile.Whitney took a deep breath and approached him, slightly lowering her head. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Carson. I'm here for Sebastian, and I'd like to have a discussion with you.""Didn't expect you to still harbor feelings for him, coming here alone for your useless ex-husband." Daniel chuckled slyly, then asked, "So, Ms. Sutton, what would you like to discuss?"While speaking, Daniel carefully scrutinized Whitney.Indeed, she was l
Whitney was speechless. With a frown, she said, "Mr. Carson, I don't get what you mean.""Ms. Sutton, you're a smart woman. Since you didn't understand, let me make it clearer. If you want to save your ex-husband, you'll have to sleep with me. Now, do you understand?" Daniel chuckled."To be honest, from the moment you walked in, I couldn't help but want to be with you. Someone as beautiful as you must be amazing in bed! Especially with those long legs of yours wrapped around my waist, it would be an incredible pleasure."Daniel's eyes roamed over Whitney, filled with lust.Upon hearing this, Whitney's face changed drastically, her pupils dilating in anger!She hadn't expected someone like Daniel, a person of such stature, to blatantly utter such vulgar words."Mr. Carson, are you joking with me?" Whitney's voice turned cold, her expression frosty."Do you think I'm kidding? Ms. Sutton, I never joke around. If you want to save your ex-husband, then sleep with me."With a nasty
Daniel waved his hand, signaling his men and the hot babes to leave the room. In the spacious private room, only Daniel and Whitney remained. She lay on the ground, her head spinning from the effects of the alcohol.Daniel slowly approached Whitney, undoing his belt with a lecherous smirk. "Ms. Sutton, a beauty like you makes me impatient. Let's start with your mouth and give me some pleasure.""You… Don't come near me!" Whitney exclaimed in terror, reaching into her bag and grabbing the pepper spray Mabel had given her. She sprayed it at Daniel twice."Ah! My eyes!" Daniel immediately covered his eyes, crying out in pain.Outside the door, the guards heard Daniel's cries of pain from inside the room."Oh, damn, Mr. Carson is having quite a passionate time," one guard chuckled lewdly."You bet! Mr. Carson never holds back. Last time, there was a woman who was exhausted to the extreme…" another guard remarked.Inside the room, Daniel's eyes were now bloodshot and swollen. He sl
Sebastian quickly arrived at the Celestial Tower. He rushed into the building after getting out of the car."Stand right there! Who are you? Who let you in?"Suddenly, a bare-chested tattooed man in the lobby rushed toward Sebastian, roaring angrily. Sebastian's expression turned grim, but he didn't stop walking forward."Damn it!" the man roared in anger and threw a punch directly at Sebastian.Ignoring him, Sebastian lifted his foot and kicked fiercely. With a loud bang, his foot connected with the man's abdomen. The man's fat trembled as he doubled over, flying backward. He knocked down several lamps before finally passing out on the floor, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood.This scene caused a commotion in the lobby. A group of bare-chested men roared and rushed toward Sebastian."Damn it! Where did this wild brat come from, daring to cause trouble at the Celestial Tower!""Attack! Get him!"Then, about thirty or forty bare-chested men, wielding fists or grabbing cl
Daniel greedily ran his hand up from Whitney's calf, caressing her from her legs up. Whitney struggled desperately, weakly pushing Daniel away as she pleaded. "Please, Mr. Carson, don't do this…"But Whitney's resistance only fueled Daniel's lust further."Ms. Sutton, keep begging. I love the way you beg," Daniel said, his perverse smile widening as he reached for Whitney's chest.Suddenly, there was a loud noise from outside the door.Daniel was stunned. "What's going on?" he shouted. The next moment, with a powerful kick, the door was blasted open, shattering into pieces on the floor. Following the destruction, a figure stormed into the room, exuding terrifying rage. Seeing Whitney's state on the sofa, the intensity of the figure's fury surged even higher. His gaze was like a hungry lion, ready to devour its prey."Fuck! Who are you, and who let you in? Leave!" Daniel roared.The man's expression darkened as he charged forward, delivering a powerful kick that sent him f
Sebastian frowned and watched as Lawrence approached him."If you don't want to die, young man, surrender now!" Lawrence said coldly. Sebastian laughed disdainfully and said, "I'm afraid you're not worthy of my surrender.""You're green and inexperienced, and you overestimate your abilities! You're asking for death!" Lawrence roared angrily. "You're the first and last person to talk to me this way here in Celestial Tower!"I hear that even Mr. Brown's junior apprentice is no match for you. Since we've crossed paths today, I'd like to see just how powerful you are!"Lawrence began the footwork for the Seven Star Path. He suddenly stepped toward Sebastian and put up his hands. "Take that!" Waves of energy exploded from his palms and were directed straight at Sebastian's chest!The energy from his palms seemed to rip the air apart! All the tables and chairs in the room cracked with the force of his move.However, Sebastian didn't look afraid at all. He stood calmly, watching L
After he had finished speaking, Lawrence rushed out of the room. Daniel, who was left behind, was confused.Was Lawrence just going to run off like this?Damn!Daniel panicked when he saw Sebastian walking toward him. He shouted, "W-What are you doing? I'm Daniel of Steinberg! If you touch me, my people will never forgive you! They won't forgive anyone close to you either!""You're so noisy!" Sebastian said coldly. He waved his hand, and several silver needles shot out, burying themselves in Daniel's neck and forehead!Daniel's eyes bulged at once. He didn't even have time to shout before he fell to the floor, as stiff as a board. He was dead. Sebastian didn't want to do this. However, Daniel had done something that Sebastian couldn't overlook!Although Whitney was his ex-wife, he would not allow her to be touched by just anyone!At that moment, Hans and Joseph rushed in with several hundred men trailing behind them.They were scared out of their wits when they saw the sc
Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head at Nina's words. "Nina, you're staying behind so everyone thinks I'm still here. Rowan and Arran will stay here with you so that no one will become suspicious!"Nina frowned. "But I'll be worried about you being with Unus. It's still just a beast whose rational capabilities aren't fully developed yet. What if it—"Sebastian smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry. Hugo has subdued them completely already, so nothing unexpected will happen. Honestly, there isn't much in Boren that worries me. However, if the Yome Sect enters Steinberg while its defenses are down, we'll be put in a difficult position."Though reluctant, Nina finally agreed.That night, Sebastian quietly brought Unus out with him. As soon as he walked out of the hotel doors, two thugs hiding at the side of the road who had been watching them stealthily immediately reported his movements to Anton."Are you sure it was Sebastian?" Anton demanded sharply."Positive! He looks e
"Kneel!" Joaquin yelled at Anton the moment he entered the room.Anton immediately dropped to his knees with a loud thud in front of Sebastian."My lord, my son is worthless. Everything that happened before was his doing. He has been a disgrace to our family. Please have mercy on his crimes," Joaquin said. He looked up at Sebastian and was puzzled to see how terrible his complexion was.Nina had been injured the day before, so why was it now the other way around? She had a rosy complexion, while Sebastian looked as white as a sheet."Alright. The important thing is to learn from one's mistakes and change. Don't forget the oath that you made. If you break it, I won't have to punish you. The law of heaven will act accordingly!" Sebastian said coldly."Yes, of course! I would never dare to break the oath! But…" Joaquin looked at Sebastian with a troubled expression.Sebastian frowned slightly and asked, "But what?""I can see that you don't look very well, my lord. Should I prepa
After resting for the whole night, Nina's complexion had almost returned to normal. Even the wounds on her body had almost healed.In stark contrast, Sebastian looked worse than ever.It was the aftereffect of losing too much blood essence. If it wasn't for the fact that he had the legacy of the Sacred Medicine Society, he might have already been half-dead. Even so, Sebastian felt weaker than he had ever felt before. His legs felt like jelly, and he was unsteady on his feet."My lord…"Rowan blanched with fear when he saw Sebastian. Sebastian was as pale as a sheet. Even his lips had lost all color."My lord, how did you get into this state?" Rowan asked, clearly confused. Sebastian had seemed fine when they returned to Mount Klane the night before. Waving his hand slightly, Sebastian replied, "I'm fine. I'll get better after some rest. Why are you up so early?"Rowan grew even more worried after hearing how frail Sebastian sounded."My lord, did you get severely injured o
As the car started, the two burly men kept close behind it.Rowan looked back at them from time to time and saw that the two burly men were keeping a fixed distance from the car. He couldn't help gasping.Weren't they walking inhumanly fast?"My lord, they—"Rowan pointed at the two burly men behind them."Don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask about," Sebastian said, looking down at Nina, who was still in a coma.He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her complexion was becoming rosy once more.After arriving back in Mount Klane, Sebastian checked into a five-star hotel at Joaquin's insistence. Once he had settled Nina in, Sebastian called the two Devora to his room."Do you have names?" he asked.The two Devora shook their heads slightly. Like Hugo had said, they had been born of Dragon Energy, and they caught beasts in the mountains for food every day. Why would they have names?"Well, you've got to give me a way to differentiate between you, right? You even
Arran and Rowan asked in confusion, "Aren't we going to look for the Ballard Estate anymore, my lord?"Sebastian turned to look at Arran. "We'll die before we reach the Ballard Estate!"Arran didn't know how powerful Nina was, but Rowan knew better than anyone that Nina was a top expert. If even she had gotten severely injured, Rowan and Arran would have no chance of entering Mount Quiln at all."Arran, trust in Mr. Ballard. Leaving Mount Quiln is the right thing to do!" Rowan said. He held Joaquin safely and asked Sebastian, "What do we do with him, my lord?"Sebastian turned to look at Joaquin. He said impassively, "Joaquin, I should execute you on the spot!"Joaquin immediately knelt and groveled. "Mr. Ballard, I'm willing to be your servant too. Please, if you don't kill me, you can tell me to do anything!""I don't have to kill you, but you mustn't let anything about what happened tonight leak out. Otherwise, I'll kill your entire family!" Sebastian said coldly.Joaquin s
"Do you think it's worth losing all your training to save her? Aren't you afraid of dying?" Hugo couldn't help asking bluntly. Sebastian smiled slightly. "I'm scared! However, she only got into this state because she was trying to save me. How could I just abandon her? We may just be master and servant, but our fates are related!"Hugo couldn't help shaking his head. "Young man, I can only save you this time. As we move forward, I may have trouble even protecting myself. Therefore, take these two items and go home!" Hugo reached out with one hand and dropped the Devora in front of Sebastian. He had been tortured half to death.The Devora was panting heavily. Although he understood that Hugo couldn't kill him, the endless torture was worse than death."Bite the tip of your tongue and wipe the blood on his brow!" Hugo instructed blandly.Sebastian held Nina up with one hand and did as Hugo had said. "Now say, the servant dies with the master, and heaven and earth bear witness!"
In less than a minute, the Devora was sent flying over ten times. The strange thing was that no matter how many times he was sent flying or how hard the impact was, he didn't bleed at all. Sebastian was secretly shocked. "Do you know why you were defeated so badly?" Hugo tapped his finger again as he spoke.Sebastian shook his head. Before that day, he hadn't even known what a Devora was. How could he possibly know why he had failed so badly? It must just be a question of skill!"How bold of you. You didn't even know the history of a Devora, and yet you dared to enter the mountain?" Hugo laughed wryly."Aren't Devoras one of the nine sons of the dragon?" Sebastian asked, looking up. Hugo spat disdainfully and asked, "Who told you that? Roveras are one of the dragon's sons, but Devoras aren't!"As he spoke, Hugo tossed a blood-red pill out and said, "Let her eat it. Use your blood essence and this pill to save her."Sebastian was startled. How could he obtain his blood esse
"A Devora? Oh no!" Samson suddenly returned to his senses. He almost rushed out through the gates, but then flames roared up around him. A wall of fire that was several hundred feet high blocked his path! Samson was Sebastian's father. After being imprisoned in the house over ten years ago, Samson had become cut off from the world. He had thought that he would never be able to see his wife and son again. Getting news of Sebastian once more was very unexpected!However, Sebastian had come across the Devoras. He was almost certainly going to die!In Samson's anxiety, he had even forgotten the Fyre Spell that had been set up around the house, which was why he had run right into the spell center and triggered the Fyre!Samson felt extremely anxious as he looked at the Fyre Spell, but he was unable to take even half a step out. "Hugo!" Samson roared at the Fyre Spell.As he shouted, an old man in long, white robes slowly materialized out of nowhere. "Well? Have you thought thi
"Indigo Thunder Shield!" Sebastian chanted under his breath as he used all his strength. A purple flash of lightning appeared around Sebastian. There was a blast as the punch landed heavily on his body. It felt like a falling meteor as it clashed with the indigo lightning! A loud sound boomed in the area, like a mountain exploding, and Sebastian flew backward.The burly man felt equally uncomfortable. The indigo lightning had shocked him so much that his legs had gone numb. "How many other tricks do you have up your sleeve?" The Devora stood up straight and advanced on Sebastian, who was lying on the ground!…In the mountains, in the backyard of the Ballard Estate, Andreas was holding a tablet and pointing at Sebastian and Nina on the screen. They were both throwing up blood and lying on the ground. He said to Whitney, "Whitney, I am not against you fasting, but—"Andreas grinned and asked, "Can you really bear watching Sebastian and that thousand-year-old snake deity ju
