In Robert's grocery store, Sebastian looked at Whitney, who was lying face-down on the bed. Her back was covered with bloody wounds. His heart ached intensely for her, filled with guilt.Whitney's smooth back was now grotesquely scarred, and her beautiful face had been ruined by knife wounds. All of this happened because of Sebastian. Remorse and regret consumed him. Although he and Whitney were divorced, they had been husband and wife for three years. His feelings wouldn't just disappear. People were sometimes very complicated. Sometimes, what they said was completely different from what they actually thought. Sebastian took a deep breath, and his eyes turned bright and calm once more. No matter what, the most important thing was to heal Whitney's wounds. Robert watched them from the doorway. He shook his head in resignation and sighed. "There's a strong fate that binds the two of you. I don't think it will end easily," he muttered. As he turned to leave, he said, "I'm
The ointment could reconstruct dead muscle tissue and remove scars. If it were applied, there would be no scarring.After half a day, Whitney jolted awake in terror. She shot up and hissed in pain. Her wounds were not fully healed yet.She was in a completely unfamiliar place.Where was she?Whitney was confused. She looked down at the baggy white shirt that she was wearing. Wasn't this a man's shirt?Where were her clothes?Who had helped her change?Whitney became nervous. She pinched the shirt she was wearing, looking like a frightened rabbit. She jumped out of bed, thinking wildly of escaping, but her injuries were too severe. The moment her feet hit the ground, the wounds on her back tore open once more. She immediately cried out in pain and fell to the floor. Sebastian walked through the door, carrying a bowl of medicinal soup. When he saw her, he hastily put the bowl down and rushed over to help Whitney up. "Are you okay?" he asked. Whitney looked up and shudder
Sebastian was mildly exasperated. He muttered, "It's not like I haven't seen it before.""Turn around!" Whitney yelled, her neck reddening. Sebastian had no choice but to turn, facing the door. There was the sound of rustling behind him as she took her clothes off. Finally, Whitney said in a muffled voice, "I-I'm ready. You can turn around…"Sebastian exhaled and turned to see Whitney lying facedown on the bed. Her back was laid bare before him. She really did have a gorgeous figure. Although it was covered with wounds, it already looked much better than before. Sebastian's temper flared again when he saw the scars. He sat on the bed and began applying medicine to the wounds that had split open. Whitney couldn't help moaning slightly, which made Sebastian feel rather hot and bothered.Whitney knew she shouldn't be making sounds like that, so she clenched her teeth. However, every time Sebastian smeared ointment on her back, she felt her skin prickling all over her body.T
"If he lifts his head, then no one will be able to stop him."…Lorraine had arrived at the house where she was temporarily staying. "Ms. Carlton, bad news!" a man, Lorraine's subordinate, cried out to her as he rushed into the courtyard, sweating profusely. Lorraine was sipping tea in the courtyard. "What got you all worked up? Is the sky falling?" she asked reproachfully. The subordinate immediately bowed slightly and answered in a fearful tone, "Ms. Carlton, Mr. Linton is back, but—""Maurice? Where is he?" Lorraine asked, frowning. "He's… he's outside…" the subordinate answered, his voice trembling. Lorraine knew that something was wrong. She got up at once and rushed to the door. When she saw what was outside, Lorraine shuddered and stumbled backward. Her face had turned as white as a sheet! A man was lying on the ground. He had been beaten to a pulp, and it was impossible to distinguish who he was. He looked as if he was an inch from death."Who is he? Take hi
There were more than ten of them, and they all looked ferocious. The machetes they carried gleamed with a cold light. "Slash him to pieces!" one of them shouted.In a moment, the ten black-clad fighters lunged at Sebastian like wild beasts, wielding their machetes. Sebastian looked completely unfazed. He wasn't afraid of the fighters charging at him and waving their machetes. He smoked his cigarette calmly and blew the smoke into the air. Then, with a casual flick, the red-hot cigarette stub shot out like a bullet and hit the machete that was being swung at his head!With a loud clang, the machete broke the moment it was hit by the cigarette stub. After that, Sebastian closed his umbrella with a snap. He held the umbrella and kicked off the ground, charging forward like a tiger!It was a completely one-sided fight. The black-clad fighters didn't even have time to react. All they saw was a black figure whooshing past in the blink of an eye. A moment later, the huge black um
Chuck took a sip of tea and frowned slightly as he said, "Ms. Carlton, I won't lie to you. Your son is severely injured, and he cannot be treated by an ordinary doctor.""What should we do, then? Dr. Langley, no matter how much it costs, I can pay! All I want is for him to recover," Lorraine said urgently.Chuck raised an eyebrow and said, "Ms. Carlton, it's not about the money—""What is it then? As long as it's within our ability, we can find you whatever you want, Dr. Langley!" Lorraine said anxiously. Chuck smiled and said, "I will do my best."Lorraine finally breathed a sigh of relief. She then looked at Lionel and said, "Mr. Potter, if Sebastian dares to turn up at the door, please deal with him!" "No problem." Lionel looked proud and confident as he said, "Ms. Carlton, from what you said about him, this Sebastian probably isn't very skilled in martial arts."He's just a delinquent who injured your son by relying on some martial arts tricks! What a scumbag! Don't worr
"Your son sexually harassed Whitney and tried to rape her, but you think that my ex-wife tried to seduce him?" Sebastian asked coldly. Lorraine didn't care. She scoffed and said, "Your ex-wife is trouble. She looks like a vixen. If she hadn't seduced my son, why would he have been attracted to her?" She added, "I don't have time to talk with you. Since you had the audacity to turn up here, you are doomed to die. If you want to have an easier death, kneel now!"Sebastian laughed, and his expression grew icier. "Like mother, like son! Since the Carltons don't know how to educate their children, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of Mr. Carlton Senior," Sebastian said impassively. The rage in his heart had reached its peak. "You asshole! Who do you think you are? How dare you speak of my father!" Lorraine yelled sharply. She was furious, and her face twisted in rage.Sebastian raised his hand, and somehow, he had managed to send a slap through the air at Lorraine. She was se
In a flash, the guards plopped onto the ground one by one, howling as they clutched their bleeding legs.Lorraine was stunned. It had only taken a second for her guards to be defeated, and she shuddered in horror.Then, Sebastian calmly kept his umbrella away and walked slowly toward her.Lorraine was terrified, and she scrambled backward."Bastard! You asshole! How dare you hit me? No one has ever hit me in my life before! I'm the heiress of the Sunway Carlton family! My dad is Kevin Carlton!" she shrieked."Even if you got on your knees and begged for my forgiveness, I will never forgive you! I want you and your bitch ex-wife to die!"However, what she got in response was another slap from Sebastian. The impact made her crumple to the floor as blood poured profusely from her head."Do you think that you're safe because you're a Carlton? One way or another, you are going to apologize to Whitney today!" Sebastian declared coldly."Even if your father, the head of the Carlton fa
Raphael felt that he was already showing Sebastian respect by giving him 5,000 dollars. If it had been anyone else, he wouldn't even have given him 50 cents, let alone 5,000 dollars!Even if he didn't pay a single penny, the mention of the name Demongate should have been enough to make Sebastian hand the Soulbell over to him."Mr. Fonda, you—""Mr. Ballard, as well as everyone here, I hope that you can understand something," Raphael cut Blake off. "The Soulbell has always belonged to Demongate. No matter how Mr. Ballard got it or whom he got it from, he should return it to its rightful owner unconditionally and present it to Demongate."I came personally and even gave Mr. Ballard a tidy sum of money for his hard work. I've done more than I needed to."Raphael clasped his hands behind his back and looked slightly contemptuous as he continued. "I don't just represent myself. I represent all of Demongate."He was clearly threatening them."Are you threatening me?" Sebastian laughed
Sebastian frowned, and he looked icily at Raphael. It had only been two short days since he had killed Terence. How had Raphael gotten the news?"You have a very efficient news network, Mr. Fonda. May I ask how you know that I have the Soulbell?" he asked, his eyes narrowing coldly at Raphael."In this world, you shouldn't do things you don't want people to know about," Raphael said, smiling contemptuously. He clasped his hands behind his back.Raphael was acting as if Sebastian had stolen Demongate's sacred vessel, and he was here to accuse him of doing it. "Mr. Ballard, there are rules in society, and the mystic martial arts sects have their own principles. As for who told me this news, it's not convenient for me to say. I came here today mainly to ask you to give the Soulbell back." Raphael made his intention clear. He clearly had no qualms about doing so.However, Blake frowned as soon as he heard him.According to the rules of the mystic martial arts sects, vessels like the
"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
