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
"Huh, isn't that just a charlatan?" Howard shook his head, sneering sarcastically. He felt that Nathan had made a misjudgment this time. A charlatan would not make it to high society. However, Sebastian calmly spoke up, "Mr. Tuffin, your forehead is darkened, and your eyebrows are sinking. I fear that you'll be facing an imminent catastrophe, even a fatal one." Sebastian had observed Howard's facial features earlier, and it was concerning. Even the slightest misfortune could pose a threat to his life. "Nonsense! Utterly absurd! So you're really capable of fortune-telling?" Howard exploded in anger. He slammed the table and shouted, "Sebastian, I know you want to prove yourself, but overdoing it will backfire! "Talking about darkened foreheads and catastrophes is sheer nonsense!" "Mr. Tuffin, I'm just telling the truth, and everything I said has a scientific basis. It would be best for you to stay here tonight and strengthen the security around you. "Also, it's advis
But now, it was too late for Howard to regret. A cold, scarred face appeared at the broken window, grinning menacingly at Howard. "Mr. Tuffin, it's been a while." "You're from the Wagner family!" Howard's eyes widened. He immediately recognized the person before him.The man was his archenemy. He and the rest were the underground thugs of the Wagner family. He hadn't expected them to trace him all the way to Steinberg. "What do you want? I'm Howard from the Tuffin family!" Howard was furious, but deep down, fear consumed him more. The man sneered coldly. "I want you dead." With those words, he pulled out a gun from his pocket and pressed it against Howard's forehead."Stop!" All of a sudden, a furious shout rang out. The scarred face turned to see a man and a woman walking over. It was none other than Sebastian and Isabel. Initially, Sebastian didn't want to get involved in this matter. But, due to Isabel's insistence that Howard likely possessed the medicinal
