Chapter 36

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Rosalie nodded and signaled the butler to usher in the specialist.

The specialist who emerged was a slender young man sporting a hawk nose and beady eyes. Clad in a green robe, he carried a quaint suitcase.

"May I present Mr. Jimmy Xeno from Cozind," Rosalie announced with a welcoming smile, prompting nods of recognition from everyone in the inner courtyard.

Jimmy Xeno gracefully bowed and suggested with a smile, "Apologies for the wait. Shall we proceed to check out the wares?"

Opening his suitcase, he presented a silver plate adorned with meticulous carvings.

The exquisite artifact radiated a soothing warmth, capturing everyone's attention and leaving them in awe of its power.

Gasps of admiration echoed through the air as everyone marveled at the extraordinary artifact.

It was their first encounter with such an impressive protective artifact, and its sheer power hinted at a hefty price tag.

If Rosalie's descriptions held true, its value would be immeasurable. Even Sebastia

    "You despicable scoundrel!" Luca seethed with anger.With a face flushed with fury, Luca barked out, "Ms. Griffin, kick this ignorant troublemaker out at once!"The other guests chimed in with their displeasure and disdain."This insolent brat dares to challenge Mr. Goodman," a man scoffed."He's making up stories! He should know his place," someone sneered."If his words hold true, is he accusing Mr. Xeno of being a fraud?" another guest snickered.Despite the crowd's furious reproach, Sebastian remained cool and collected."What are you waiting for, Ms. Griffin? Hurry and get this man out!" Luca urged in frustration.Rosalie raised an eyebrow, a cold smirk playing on her lips. She retorted, "What gives you the right to command me, Mr. Goodman? It seems you don't understand the situation. "Mr. Ballard is an esteemed guest of the Griffin family, and I won't kick him out even if you want me to."He expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "You should know I'm an esteemed geom

    "Since you insist the silver plate is fake, let me see how you intend to prove it." Squinting his eyes, Jimmy glanced at Sebastian. He was filled with disdain. To him, Sebastian was just an immature brat. What extraordinary skills could an ordinary person like him possibly possess? There was no way he would recognize it even if a real artifact was placed before his eyes! So, Jimmy wasn't worried that Sebastian could prove anything. He had full confidence in the silver plate. After all, he was the only one who understood its profound secrets.Shaking his head, Sebastian smiled. "If that's the case, then pardon me." He took a few glances at the silver plate. Withdrawing his gaze, he sneered, "It's just an ordinary plate. All it takes is a bit of deception to fool wealthy people like you. "I've got to say, your minds are really not sharp. It's so easy to deceive you.""How dare you!""What did you say, you brat?""Damn it! Is this bastard calling us stupid?"The people

    At this moment, everyone understood what was happening, even if they were foolish. "You can leave, Mr. Xeno, but you'll have to leave the silver plate here! Please explain yourself before you go!" Tim said solemnly."That's right! Why would you be in such a hurry to leave if the silver plate was a genuine artifact?" James asked coldly. There was no way he would let Jimmy go so easily when he had the guts to deceive him.Sweating profusely, Jimmy had an unpleasant expression on his face. He stared fixedly at Sebastian as anger surged in his heart.He didn't expect the scheme he set up so meticulously to be exposed by this brat.Jimmy would have earned a few million tonight, but it was all ruined by Sebastian. This filled him with intense resentment."You brat! How dare you slander me?" Jimmy gritted out. A surge of killing intent emanated from him."What? Did I hit a sore spot, Mr. Xeno? Are you going to hurt me?" Sebastian smiled faintly. There wasn't a trace of fear in h

    Jimmy shook the gourd vigorously in his hand and chanted an incantation after he finished speaking. The gourd emitted black mists continuously as the incantation was uttered. The mists filled the air and transformed into terrifying faces of spirits.Shrill screams were emitted from the mists, resembling the wails of evil spirits that had crawled out from hell."Oh my god!""What is this? Is this black magic?" "Help! Run …"Many of the wealthy people in the courtyard were frightened to death. They fell to the floor and scrambled under tables. Trembling all over, they clutched their heads and chanted prayers in their hearts.All their lives, these aristocrats had only seen money and women. They had never witnessed such a horrifying scene before. This had completely exceeded their understanding. "T-This is the necromancy spell from Cozind …" Luca exclaimed. "Mr. Xeno is truly extraordinary. To think he could command evil spirits … My geomancy skills are nothing compared

    After that, everyone watched on in amazement and bewilderment. Sebastian tapped the jewelry seven times with his finger. Then, he flung the jewelry at the cursed gourd and yelled, "Lend me the power of the universe and grant me the power of the gods to let lightning strike the earth! "Hear my pleas at once! I summon thee, lightning!"There was a thunderclap and a flash of lightning. It hit the cursed gourd directly.That was the lightning spell!It used positive energy to suppress cursed energy. When the lightning crashed down into the courtyard, Sebastian looked as awe-inspiring and lofty as a god!The cursed gourd was struck by lightning and split into pieces with a crack. Meanwhile, the dense black fog suspended midair immediately vanished due to the lightning as well!It disappeared without a trace. Meanwhile, the frosty atmosphere in the courtyard went away, too. "Oh! My cursed gourd!"Jimmy let out a yell as he saw the broken pieces of his cursed gourd. Then, he

    Sebastian didn't want to involve himself with the other party any longer. Meanwhile, when Luca heard his reply, he immediately escaped. Tim frowned and glared at Sebastian. After sneering at the latter, he walked out of the courtyard. That night, he had utterly embarrassed himself. At the same time, Tim would remember Sebastian from then on. "I'm tired, Ms. Griffin. I'm going to head home now," Sebastian said. Rosalie smiled. "Dr. Ballard, I'll send you home."The other party nodded in agreement. After that, they walked out of the courtyard together. However, before they left the place, they heard someone call out, "Dr. Ballard, please wait!"Sebastian raised an eyebrow. He looked back and saw James running toward him. The man was out of breath, and his face was very pale. "Dr. Ballard, may I speak to you for a moment?""Just tell me what you want directly," Sebastian replied. Then, James said, "Dr. Ballard, to be honest, the Turner family has undergone some issues

    "Haha, how can you hide anything from your grandfather? I watched you grow up. Your emotions are clearly exposed on your face now." Oliver laughed tenderly. He knew what his granddaughter was feeling. "Hmph! I won't talk to you anymore." Rosalie stomped her foot. "Rosalie, I need to remind you something. Dr. Ballard is competent and has a bright future ahead of him. "However, he's divorced. You'll have to consider this carefully," Oliver sighed. The old man saw what Sebastian did that night when he was upstairs. He even knew that the younger man had saved Nathan and exposed Jimmy's tricks.Evidently, Sebastian was a hidden expert!That young man probably had a reason for living an ordinary life in Steinberg. "Grandpa, I still like him even though he's divorced!" Rosalie replied stubbornly. Oliver stopped smiling. "But he has nothing now.""So what? I believe that he'll be an extraordinary man in the future. He'll be adored by many and will be an extremely remarkable

    Whitney frowned. She glanced at Rosalie suspiciously and questioned, "Are you sure?" "Of course!" Rosalie replied with a smile. "Good! It's a deal then!" Whitney nodded. Rosalie chuckled and said, "Alright, it's a deal. Just don't go back on it like Fergus later on." They were starting to compete with each other silently. "Hmph! I won't lose." Whitney huffed coldly, casting a gaze at Rosalie before walking past her. Rosalie smiled and didn't say much, simply walking away. Meanwhile, on the other side, Sebastian walked alongside Isabel for a while and asked, "Ms. Jimenez, is there anything I can help you with?" Isabel smiled as they walked. "I heard from the Griffins that Dr. Ballard has been looking for some rare medicinal ingredients?" "That's right." Sebastian nodded. Did the Griffin family inform Isabel about this matter?"Perfect timing. It just so happened that I know a tycoon whose expertise is making medicinal ingredients. If Dr. Ballard isn't in

    At Keanu's age, he no longer placed any importance on pride. What mattered most was being able to continue living. Even Phineas was shocked when Keanu knelt. After all, he was the Keanu Norris!With a single thought, the countless shadows behind Sebastian disappeared at once, while he appeared in front of Keanu."Didn't you just say that you would destroy my whole family?" Sebastian asked coldly."I… I would never dare to do so!"Keanu broke out in a cold sweat.Sebastian was already so powerful despite being so young. It had made Keanu think of a name that everyone in the Nine Sects was terrified of—the Sacred Medicine Society! The only reasonable explanation was that Sebastian was from the Sacred Medicine Society! At the very least, he was probably an apprentice of someone mysterious in that sect.Sebastian slapped Keanu and asked icily, "Do the Sapientia have privileges?"Keanu shook his head hastily, and blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth. Sebastian's slap had

    Keanu was furious. This was the first time someone hadn't trembled after hearing his name, especially when it was a young man in his 20s!"Since you know my name, aren't you going to admit to your crimes and accept your punishment?"Phineas hastily approached him and said, "Mr. Norris, this—"Before he could finish, Keanu silenced him with a slap, sending him flying eight feet away.Phineas saw stars, and he struggled for a while on the ground, unable to get up.Sebastian glanced at Phineas and said coldly, "Norris, apologize to him now and it won't be too late. Otherwise, your luck ends here!"Keanu glanced at him and said, "You brat! This day next year is going to be your death anniversary. If you have any last words, say them now!"Keanu slowly pulled out his sword and pointed it at Sebastian."Last words?" Sebastian scoffed and strode forward. In the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Keanu.He had moved so fast that it surpassed Keanu's imagination. How could a you

    Phineas had wanted to arrive first so he could stop Sebastian from killing Ezekiel."So what if he's Ezekiel's mentor? Does that mean that the Sapientia can do as they please without getting punished?" Sebastian asked icily.Phineas broke into a cold sweat and said, "Mr. Ballard, it's not wise to offend Mr. Norris. He's in the top 100 of the Nine Sects. You might not understand the difference here, but Ezekiel isn't even in the top 5,000."Sebastian scoffed. "Well, I'd like to meet Mr. Norris, then. I want to see just how impressive he is."He wasn't the only one who was highly skilled. He also had Lyanna and Nina with him. Even if a deity had come down to the earth, Sebastian would have wanted to meet them, let alone Keanu.As they spoke, a black car stopped at the entrance to the estate. An old man with a white beard who was dressed in red Dainist robes got out of the car haughtily. As he walked into the estate, he shouted, "Ezekiel, come out here on your knees to greet me!"

    Sebastian smiled slightly and asked, "You understand now, don't you? Purity isn't a sword that anyone can use. If you want to use it, you must first be strong enough."As he spoke, Sebastian spread his fingers out, and Purity flew back into his hand as if it were alive.The moment it landed in Sebastian's palm, lightning crackled along its blade, and it emitted a pale blue glow again. That was the moment when Ezekiel realized that the problem wasn't with Purity but with its wielder.Ezekiel couldn't help staring at Sebastian in shock. Wouldn't that mean that Sebastian's powers were above those of the Sapientia's leader?"If you understand, you can also go and die now."Sebastian smiled thinly and waved his hand. A bolt of lightning shot forth. With a dull thud, over a dozen heads fell to the ground at the same time. Percival and his men collapsed alongside them.After that, Lyanna and Nina worked together. Apart from a few local Warriors from Steinberg, all the Sapientia's ap

    At that moment, all Percival could think about was ensuring his survival.Sebastian glanced coldly at him and smiled. "Mr. Chard, that's not what you said before."He had no intention of letting Percival and the others leave alive.Maximus was just a clown at most. Even if he was permitted to leave, he couldn't endanger Sebastian, Whitney, or Rosalie. Percival and the others were different. They were used to throwing their weight around. Although they had submitted to Sebastian today because of the circumstances, they were sure to hold a grudge against him for it.In the future, the lives of those around Sebastian would be threatened the moment he let down his guard."Mr. Ballard, I really was talking nonsense. You're our league leader. I'll be sure to keep our agreement from now on," Percival said, groveling so hard to Sebastian that he grazed his forehead. Blood trickled down his cheeks."Mr. Ballard, we made a mistake too! We… we all came because we received the Martial Go

    "The person who's going to kill you!" Lyanna answered, smiling calmly at Ezekiel.The elite martial arts families and the members of the sects from Steinberg had all retreated far away in fear. Unfortunately, the space in the yard was limited, and they were soon backed into a corner with nowhere else to go.While they cowered in fear, Nina turned into her true form. A huge snake reared up more than 40 feet in the air and began voraciously devouring the corpses on the ground, its red tongue flicking in and out. The estate had become a living hell.Percival wet his pants in fear. What was going on? This wasn't how things were supposed to go at all!Shouldn't they have brought the women with Sebastian over here and forced Sebastian to hand Purity over before slashing him to death? After that, they would have divided Sebastian's women and assets among them!Why were they the ones being slaughtered and eaten instead?"M-Mr. Harton… what should we do?" Percival stuttered.He was tru

    "H-How dare you?" Ezekiel had turned pale with anger.How could Sebastian have flayed and removed every bone of a Sapientia member? Was there still justice in the world? Was there any respect for the elders?"Hmph! You want to harm the women around me, yet you won't permit me to enact a small punishment on you and your men?" Sebastian asked, laughing scornfully."Sebastian, you bastard. You're defying your elders, and you have no respect for them! The martial arts community is a place where seniority is important!" Ezekiel yelled.Just as he finished speaking, a bolt of white light came to the estate at an extremely high speed. With the white light came a lump of bloody, tattered flesh.Nina had tossed Gaston into the yard."My lord, Lyanna's pulled out all his bones. Please inspect him," Nina said, smiling.That was when everyone noticed the bloody lump on the ground. They only recognized Gaston when they looked closely!There was a strip of red cloth stuck on his body, and he

    Sebastian shook his head slightly and said, "Mr. Harton, even if you make me hand it over, you should have a reason to do so."Everyone looked viciously at him.How could he still be so arrogant? He had been relying on Purity to put on a tough act, and he was now surrounded by more than 1,000 people. Could he really break through just by using the sword? "Aiden's tragic death is the reason! You just stood by instead of saving him, and that's the reason too," Ezekiel said coldly. "Yes!" Percival chimed in. "You're the league leader. How could you bear watching him die?" "That's right! What you did is an act of betrayal in the martial arts community!" the other sect leaders chorused. "League leader? Do you really think that I don't know?" Sebastian's gaze swept over Percival and the others. "You formed this so-called league just because you covet Purity. Aiden's death in the arena was his own doing. He was greedy, and he got what he deserved!" As soon as Sebastian's words fel

    Life was tough out in the world. People couldn't do as they pleased just because they were skilled.Wits were the only factor in survival. However, how sharp could a young man in his 20s be?"Mr. Harton, I don't quite understand what you mean. Didn't we already deal with this issue earlier?" Sebastian asked, looking uninterestedly at Ezekiel."Sebastian!" Percival suddenly yelled. "What kind of place do you think this is? Do you think you're still in the martial arts arena?"Percival no longer had enough patience to keep up his act. He would have harmed Sebastian on the way back if he hadn't been wary of Purity, knowing that he might not be a match for it.Now that Sebastian was alone and was surrounded by more than 1,000 people on the estate, how could he still remain so arrogant?"Oh? What kind of place is this? Hell?" Sebastian asked, his gaze sweeping over the crowd around him. A white-haired old man squeezed out of the crowd and pointed at him. "Sebastian, you've been lawl
