Sebastian exited the kitchen with a plate of spaghetti in his hands. "We're already divorced. So it doesn't matter if she hates me," he said mildly.With that, he twirled his spaghetti around his fork and ate a mouthful.The mouth-watering scent of spaghetti soon enveloped the small shop. Rosalie watched him hungrily as she asked, "Is it nice?""Do you want some?" Sebastian asked."Yes, please!" Rosalie beamed before dragging Sebastian's plate toward her. She didn't even bother getting another fork and just ate his spaghetti with his fork."It's delicious," she complimented with a blissful smile.Not only was Sebastian skilled at medicinal practices, but he was also incredibly skilled at cooking too!Sebastian sighed in exasperation and got up to grab another plate of spaghetti for himself.After that, the both of them ate their food in silence.Rosalie let out an inelegant burp after she was done and flashed him a content smile."I've never had such delicious spaghetti in
Theresa turned and ran toward the door.Sebastian's expression was solemn as he called out after her, "Wait!""What do you want?" Theresa snapped."I'm going with you," Sebastian declared with a frown."You?" she asked incredulously with a dark expression.Rosalie also frowned slightly at Sebastian's declaration.Sebastian turned to Rosalie. "Ms. Griffin, I'm so sorry, but…""It's alright. Go on. After all, Ms. Sutton is your ex-wife. You should go and check on her," Rosalie said with an understanding smile as she tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.Sebastian smiled in relief as he thanked her softly. Then, he got to his feet and followed Theresa into her car.Though Theresa didn't really want Sebastian to come, there was no time to waste. She had no choice but to drive to Tranquil Hospital with him.At the hospital, Theresa rushed to the ward immediately after she got out of the car, with Sebastian following closely behind her."Ms. Lucero, how's Whit?" Theresa as
"I need to perform acupuncture on her to disperse the cold energy in her body," Sebastian explained.Crystal scowled as she shouted, "What nonsense are you spouting? What cold energy? Are you cursing my daughter?"Sebastian tried to explain again, "It's not that. Whitney is actually—"However, Crystal was having none of it and interrupted coldly, "That's enough. The doctors here will diagnose Whitney. You're just a useless piece of trash. You have no right to be spouting nonsense here!"Besides, I heard from Ms. Lucero that Winnie is only in the hospital because of you! Isn't that right?" she demanded.Sebastian frowned.Mabel seized this opportunity to quickly add, "Mrs. Sutton, Ms. Sutton got caught in the rain because of this asshole! That's why she has a high fever!""What do you have to say for yourself?" Crystal demanded as she turned to Sebastian.Sebastian arched an eyebrow. "I have nothing to say. I just want to tell you that this isn't a regular fever. Her condition i
Damon looked haughty as he glanced at Sebastian. "So you're Sebastian? The man that Mr. Cobb mentioned?" he asked in disbelief."Yes, that's me," Sebastian said, raising an eyebrow.Damon huffed. "I've seen videos of you at work, and I admit you do have some skill. However, that insignificant amount of skill is nothing to be proud of!"It's such a shame that someone as arrogant as you is the successor of Expalyrium," Damon said finally.Sebastian's expression darkened immeasurably at that. He hadn't expected this old man, who looked to be in his sixties, to pull rank on him to discipline and humiliate him.Sebastian was about to retort when he was interrupted by Fergus. "Sebastian, aren't you going to leave? You'll only be a hindrance if you stay!"Once Dr. Caesar cures Winnie and she wakes up, she might fall back into a coma from anger when she sees you!" Fergus snickered."He's right! Trashtian! Get lost!" Dante chimed in smugly.Crystal followed suit and shouted, "Why are yo
"Beg you?" Crystal asked in disbelief before breaking into laughter. "Nonsense! Your mediocre medicinal skills are nothing compared to Dr. Caesar's, and you expect us to beg you?"Her tone was haughty as she declared, "If Dr. Caesar can't treat Whitney, I will get on my knees and beg you!""I will too!" Dante chimed in with a mocking expression.Sebastian didn't respond and took one last look at Whitney before he left.Fergus waved a hand dismissively once Sebastian left, and he huffed, "He's just a piece of trash. I can't believe how bold he was acting."He then plastered on a sickeningly sweet smile as he clasped his hands together respectfully. "Dr. Caesar, please treat Whitney."Damon stroked his beard and replied, "Don't worry, I got this." Then, he walked toward Whitney.Theresa quickly got to her feet and stood to the side. "Dr. Caesar, is Whit alright?" she asked worriedly. Damon took one look at Whitney before he took her pulse. "It's nothing serious. There's a bit of
In an instant, the ward was so silent that they could hear a pin drop. Everyone's expression shifted between disbelief and reluctance.Did they really need to beg that piece of trash for help?"Mr. Cobb, Mrs. Sutton, I've really never seen anything like Ms. Sutton's disease! From what I heard just now, Ms. Sutton hasn't had any problems with her health, which means that kid outside really knows how to cure her!" Damon said. "Please consider what's best for Ms. Sutton!""Mrs. Sutton, what do we do now?" Fergus asked. It was not his place to make a decision.Crystal thought about it for a while before she looked at the unconscious Whitney. In the end, she sighed as she said, "For Winnie, we can only beg for that useless bastard's help!"Then, she rushed out of the ward to the waiting area. She found Sebastian sitting on one of the couches."Sebastian!" Crystal called as she stalked over to him. "Winnie's condition has worsened! Go take a look!"Sebastian raised an eyebrow as he wa
"Are you really going to watch her be in a coma for life?" she demanded."As long as I'm here, she'll be alright," Sebastian said with a frown. "However, don't forget that she was the one who wanted a divorce. So, none of you have the right to act so high and mighty around me!"I'll save her if I want to, and I won't if I don't feel like it!" he snarled.They all went silent at that. Eventually, Theresa raised an eyebrow and growled, "You really are a bastard."At that moment, Fergus rushed out and yelled, "Oh no! Winnie is…"Within the next second, Sebastian had jumped to his feet and rushed into the ward. Crystal and the others were also extremely anxious and rushed inside after him. By the time they all reached the ward, Sebastian was already performing acupuncture on Whitney. She already looked much better, and the equipment hooked to her was no longer blaring."How is she? Is she alright?" Crystal asked anxiously.Sebastian sighed and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "I
Damon was about to speak, but Fergus cut him off, "Dr. Caesar, you must be mistaken. You're the one who saved Whitney! "What do you mean by someone else? I know you don't like to show off after saving someone's life, but we are all witnesses here."Then, Fergus gave Crystal and the others a look.Crystal caught his hint and smiled. "Right, Dr. Caesar. You're too humble! No matter what, thank you for saving Winnie."Damon was puzzled, so Fergus pulled him to the side and said, "Dr. Caesar, you almost risked Whitney's life just now. "Although you're one of the top three doctors in Medcity, your reputation would still be ruined if the incident today was spread. By then, not only you but even Medcity will be questioned."Fergus continued, "Since Whitney thought you were the one who saved her, why not take the credit? It's a good thing for you and her both. And to us, it's even better."Well, Damon wasn't dumb, either. At his age, he immediately knew what Fergus meant.However, he
"It's a good thing I was here tonight. You may not be so lucky next time," Lyanna said. She got up to leave, but Rosalie rose hurriedly and called after her, "Wait!""Is there anything else?" Lyanna turned her head slightly and fixed her beautiful eyes on Rosalie."What kind of person is Sebastian? I mean…" After Lyanna had told her who she was, Rosalie felt as if her thoughts were in turmoil. Even Sebastian, whom she had always loved and admired, had suddenly become unfamiliar to her.If Sebastian had just been a traditional medicine doctor, she could have accepted it. However, now Sebastian was keeping a female spirit around him. Not only that, the spirit was his servant. This was beyond the scope of Rosalie's understanding. Sebastian was rapidly becoming like a riddle to her."Have you heard of sages? Mr. Ballard is probably like them," Lyanna said. In a flash, she had disappeared without a trace.Rosalie remained quiet for a long time before she started the engine once mor
The short, fat man who had smashed up Rosalie's car window tossed his rock aside and hurried over. His eyes were bulging as he looked greedily at the beautiful woman standing in front of them. She was just as pretty as Rosalie was."Boss, I deserve some credit for the work I've done, don't I? Can you give me this chick?" the short, fat man asked, rubbing his hands together as he licked his lips.Lyanna looked at Chet and the short, fat man. She covered her mouth and giggled as she said, "I don't know what kind of day it is, but I do know that next year, this will be your death anniversary! Which of you wants to die first?""I… Huh?" Chet had been about to lunge forward and grab Lyanna, but then he realized what she had said.It would be their death anniversary on this day next year? What did that mean?Before he could recover his senses, Lyanna tittered and nodded. "Alright, you'll die first."She flicked her sleeve aside and revealed her slender, pale hands. Her foot-long, brigh
When Chet and the lackeys looked more closely, they saw that the car parked in the distance was a personal car and that there was a gorgeous woman sitting inside it.They were delighted at their good fortune. This was an opportunity they could not miss!As they were in such a remote area, they barely ever saw any women, let alone a beautiful one like Rosalie.Therefore, Chet gave the order, and the thugs all surged forward. They were barely able to contain their excitement."Hello, beautiful. What has upset you so much at this late hour? Tell us about it. Even if we can't make you happy, you can make us happy!" The short, fat man in the lead reached out to pull Rosalie's car door open as he spoke.Rosalie was beside herself with fear. She hastily locked the car and pulled her phone out of her bag as she screamed loudly at the men outside her car. "What do you want? Stay away from my car, or… or I'll call the police!"The fat, short man glanced at Rosalie, who looked frightened an
Sebastian heard Rosalie sobbing behind him. He turned around abruptly, but Rosalie rushed over to him and slapped him in the face before he could explain."Sebastian! I rushed over here as soon as I heard that something had happened in Steinberg! You… You're a jerk!" Rosalie was weeping. She had been planning on telling Sebastian on the day of the martial arts battle about the good news of the huge order that Arctic Snow Group had received from Lorcan. However, while eavesdropping on a conversation between Oliver and Belinda, she found out about the huge commotion over in Steinberg.When she heard that all eight of the Celestial realm experts that the Warrior League had sent to protect Whitney had all been killed and that the latter had disappeared, Rosalie couldn't contain her anxiety.She had rushed back to Steinberg at once.When she found no sign of Sebastian at the Moonlyte Club, she had come to the convenience store instead.She saw that it was lit up and had run straight
Hank and Taylor broke out into a cold sweat when they saw what had happened. Terence was like a god to them!Who would have thought that Terence, who had had the upper hand just a moment ago, would have stood vacantly on the spot just because Sebastian had thrust the rusty bronze mirror at him? He had just stood still and waited for Sebastian to come and kill him!"Run, hurry!" Before he could think too much about it, Taylor growled in a low voice and turned to flee to the foot of the mountain.Hank only came to his senses when Taylor was already far away from him. He was about to go after him, but he had only gone a few steps when a ghostly, feminine figure appeared and blocked his path."You—" The moment Hank turned, his soul almost left his body from fright at what he saw.Only a moment had passed since Terence's murder, but the eerie woman in front of him had already cut off more than a dozen heads. Whenever she cut a head off, dark energy would be sucked into her emerald
Terence wielded his sword. Wherever the blade pointed, the air was sliced apart instantly!Sebastian forced himself to concentrate and raised his sword to shield his chest!There was a clang as Terence's sword crashed down on Sebastian's, and sparks flew up at once. Sebastian couldn't help but take a few steps back. He felt the energy roiling inside him and almost spat out a mouthful of blood."My lord!" Nina felt extremely anxious when she saw that Sebastian was at a disadvantage. She ignored Sebastian's previous command and leaped over to him to hold him up. "My lord, are you alright?" Nina asked in concern. Sebastian was slightly flushed, and he looked as if his energy was becoming erratic. He shook his head slightly and pushed Nina away. He handed Whitney to her and said, "Protect Whitney well. If anything happens to her, come and see me with your head!" Nina turned to Rose, who was beside her. She wanted to protest, but Sebastian waved a hand and said, "Lyanna was hur
"It's a pity that you'll never understand," Sebastian said.Terence's face flushed. Who would've expected a young man in his twenties like Sebastian to be so perceptive? He was even more advanced than Terence in the Way of Wisdom!"My lord, I was trapped in the front yard just now. No matter how I walked, I couldn't get through the door. That's why…" Lyanna trailed off and hung her head, looking shamefaced.Technically, she was a spirit. How had she fallen prey to the Bewitchment spell? Even Lyanna was puzzled."It's the Soulbell!" Sebastian turned abruptly to look at Terence.Lyanna felt that she couldn't have been trapped by the Bewitchment spell because she didn't actually have a body. Meanwhile, Nina was a thousand-year-old snake deity, and ordinary formations couldn't contain her at all.Therefore, there was only one possibility. Terence had external help. The Soulbell was the only possible explanation.Nina and Rose arrived as well."Protect Whitney," Sebastian said befor
Sebastian eyed the middle-aged man and laughed coldly. "You surprised me too. Do you want to be a sacrifice for my sword?"Sebastian gently shook Purity, which he was holding. Immediately, it felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck the entire yard!Hank and the others began mocking him at once. "Ballard, you are bold out of ignorance. Do you know who is standing in front of you? Let me tell you, it's the seventh elder of Sword Towers, Mr. Manderly."One of them added, "Consider it an honor for you to be killed by Mr. Manderly."Sebastian raised an eyebrow and squinted at Terence as he said, "If I'm guessing correctly, Nina and the others must have fallen into your trap. That's why they haven't arrived yet. Right?""You're observant!" Terence smiled faintly and said, "If you hadn't stepped into Draconem Cathedral right before I did, you would be stuck in a Bewitchment trap, just like them."Honestly, it's a miracle for someone of your age to have this level of training. However,
While Taylor stood there, stunned, Sebastian bore down on him. Upon seeing Sebastian raising his fist to hit him once more, Taylor hastily pulled himself together and met Sebastian's punch with his own."Are… Are you all stupid?" Blood was seeping out of the back of Taylor's hand as he looked at the people behind him."You've always liked fighting alone, Taylor. We were afraid that we would spoil your fun." Despite what Hank said, he turned on his heel and sent a spinning kick at Sebastian to block his path.Sebastian felt a strong force rushing toward him, and he immediately stopped in the midst of pursuing Taylor. He moved aside and aimed a roundhouse kick at Hank. Yet another wave of energy exploded, and fear flashed across Hank's face. The blow had seemed plain, but it embodied the mysterious principles of martial arts.Even an expert who was two levels higher than Hank would have had his bones broken by that kick, let alone someone who was only at the first level of the Ce
