The car door opened. Crystal and Dante rushed out, followed by about a dozen thugs.Sebastian raised an eyebrow when he saw them."Shannon, are you alright? What's going on?" Crystal rushed over when she took in the scene. She asked Shannon, "What did you crash into? Where's the other party? Don't worry, I've brought people.""Aunt Crystal, look at my face! Look at what's happened to it! How can I attend Whitney's wedding when I look like this?" Shannon whined. When Crystal saw the injuries on Shannon's face, she was furious. She yelled, "Don't worry, I'll get justice for you! No matter who the other party is, I'll hack them to pieces for being so bold in Steinberg!"Dante stepped over to them importantly and shouted, "Frickign hell! How dare they hit my cousin? Do they have a death wish?""It's that guy, Dante!" Shannon pointed at Sebastian and Rosalie.She rushed over to Sebastian and shouted, "Weren't you pretending to be cool just now, you asshole? Let me see what you'll
When Shannon heard that Crystal wanted to call the police, she yelled, "Aunt Crystal, you can't call the police…""What's wrong, Shannon? Didn't you say that he crashed into you and hit you? We should call the police. What are you afraid of?" Crystal asked. She challenged Sebastian. "Sebastian, call the police now if you dare!"Sebastian shook his head and smiled in resignation. He lifted his phone as if he were about to make the call.Shannon panicked. She knew that she was the one who had broken the law. If they called the police, she would be arrested for sure!"You can't call the police!" She bawled. Crystal and Dante looked at her in confusion, and Crystal asked, "What's wrong, Shannon? What are you afraid of? I'll take care of everything!"Shannon pulled on Crystal's arm and said tearfully, "Aunt Crystal, I, I…""What is going on? Spit it out! You're making me nervous!" Crystal shouted.Sebastian laughed and said, "What else could it be? She made an illegal turn and ra
Crystal and Dante followed them anxiously.When they arrived at the police station, Sebastian gave his statement and handed over the footage from his dashcam. He and Rosalie went out after that. As for Shannon, he didn't care what happened to her. Outside, he saw Crystal and Dante. The two of them were waiting anxiously and making dozens of phone calls to try and use their connections."You asshole! I won't let you get away with this!" Crystal hissed as she glared at Sebastian.She added, "Winnie is about to arrive! You can explain to her when she gets here!" Sebastian frowned. At that moment, there was the sound of harried footsteps outside. It was someone wearing high heels. A slender figure entered, wearing a face mask and sunglasses. "What's going on, Mom? Why has Shannon been arrested?" Whitney ran in with Mabel, looking anxious. Crystal grabbed Whitney and wailed pitifully, "Winnie, you're finally here! What else could the reason be? It's that asshole Sebastian's
Dante sidled up and said, "That's right, Winnie! What Ms. Lucero said makes sense. Mom and I think so too."I mean, why did he have to get into a car accident right before your wedding? Not only that, he just had to crash into Shannon! Isn't it obvious that he did it on purpose?"He just wants to mess up your wedding. He wants to embarrass you and make you angry so that you'll keep thinking about him!"Crystal added, "Winnie, do you finally see what kind of person Sebastian is? He's not a good person! He knows you're getting married the day after tomorrow, and he's making trouble like this to embarrass you on purpose!"Whitney's eyes flashed under her sunglasses. She said coldly, "Alright, stop it. I get it. What about Shannon? What's the situation now?"Crystal said anxiously, "The police are still taking her statement."Whitney frowned. She looked back at Mabel and said, "Ms. Mabel, find out if we can use some connections to minimize the consequences of this incident."Mabel n
Alvin Janssen frowned and looked rather unhappy.He was the heir of the Janssen family in Janover and was very wealthy. He was also a passionate suitor of Rosalie's. He and Stephen Beckard were dubbed the "Janover Gentlemen". Stephen was the second son of the Janover Beckard family. They had been given the nickname because both of them were courting Rosalie, and they had fought over her many times. "A boy toy? How could that be? Rosalie is such a proud woman. She even turned up her nose at Mr. Janssen and Mr. Beckard. Would she go for a boy toy in a tiny city like Steinberg?" the woman in the blonde man's arms spoke up, looking disparaging. "Maybe Rosalie likes that kind of thing?" The blonde man laughed.Alvin frowned and glared at him. He said coldly, "Don't slander others without reason, especially Rosalie! Don't speak ill of her in front of me!"The blonde man was startled. His smile dropped at once, and he said formally, "I'm sorry, Mr. Janssen."Alvin snorted. He look
Alvin clearly wanted to tell Sebastian that he was not worthy of being friends with them.Rosalie looked very angry. She said grimly, "What are you saying, Alvin? Stop throwing your weight around and bullying Sebastian! If you keep doing that, I'll leave."Rosalie took Sebastian's hand and turned to leave.Alvin immediately became anxious. He stopped her and smiled, saying, "Rosalie, I was just joking. Don't take it so seriously."As he spoke, Alvin looked down and saw that Rosalie was holding Sebastian's hand. His eyelid twitched, and he felt rage rise up inside him!What right did Sebastian have to hold hands with Rosalie!"Hey man, since Rosalie brought you, we'll let you hang out with us." Alvin spoke loftily to Sebastian.He did not want to make Rosalie angry. Sebastian frowned slightly, looking very displeased.He was about to open his mouth to make a retort, but Rosalie tugged at his arm and said apologetically, "I'm sorry about Alvin. That's just what he's like. Don't
Alvin, Jason, and Cassandra's expressions changed slightly.Alvin scoffed and walked over to the course. He said coldly, "Let's have a competition, then."Jason and Cassandra looked disdainfully at Sebastian and followed Alvin.Sebastian fell into step behind them.Rosalie stamped her foot. She had no choice but to catch up to them.When they arrived on the course, Alvin rested his club on his shoulder and pointed at the flag of the hole in front of them. He said confidently, "Hit the ball into that hole within five strokes. How about it?"Alvin glanced at Sebastian and saw that the latter was still fiddling with his golf club. Alvin shook his head and laughed scornfully. Sebastian didn't look like he knew how to play at all."You don't look like you know how to play. How about ten strokes, then?" Alvin relaxed the rules. He was being very arrogant.Sebastian swung his golf club and looked over at the hole, which was several hundred feet away. He smiled and said, "Let's do it
Jason's expression twisted.Eat the ball?He couldn't do that!Sebastian scoffed at Jason's incredulous expression. "What now, are you going to go back on your word?"Jason blanched and he hesitated for a second before he stammered, "I…"However, Rosalie cut him off with a cold scoff. "Jason! A man shouldn't go back on their words! Don't make me think any less of you!" "I'm not fucking eating the ball!" Jason snapped indignantly. "I bet this bastard set me up just to humiliate me!" That was a golf ball!Who in the world would willingly eat a golf ball?He would end up in the hospital if he did!"You think I set you up? It seems like you're saying that you want to go back on your words, Mr. Wellington," Sebastian said with a mocking grin.Jason's eye twitched in annoyance at Sebastian's smug expression.He had planned to humiliate Sebastian but now he was the one getting humiliated!Just then, Alvin cleared his throat before he said, "Alright! We're all friends here to
Sebastian and Nina arrived at the hotel restaurant for a meal, accompanied by Rocco."Mr. Ballard, please sit here," Rocco said, leading Sebastian to the best seat in the restaurant and shooting the waiter a look.He had instructed the chefs to prepare the food specially for Sebastian before they even arrived. Moments later, a dozen waiters served up beautifully plated dishes of food."Mr. Ballard, this was made specially for you and Ms. Nina by a top chef whom our hotel brought in from Janover. Please enjoy." Sebastian and Nina picked up their cutlery and put some food into their mouths. Nina nodded in satisfaction. "This poached fish is delicious!"Sebastian pointed to a plate of salad opposite him and said, "This salad is also very good!"At that moment, the restaurant doors opened and a large group of people streamed in.Kayden was at the head of the group, with Candy following closely behind him as they entered. The moment Sebastian had returned to Acorn City, someone
Back in Klane City, Javier had already heard one of Joaquin's attendants mention Sebastian, so he knew that Sebastian was someone even Joaquin had to show respect to. That person was now in Acorn City.It wouldn't be very suitable for someone of Javier's age to try and approach Sebastian, and they wouldn't have many common topics either. It was different for Kayden. They were both young men, and Kayden had a wide variety of interests. He knew what young people were interested in, which would make it easier for him to strike up a friendship. If they could get into the good books of someone as influential as Sebastian, they would gain an advantage over Joaquin. In the future, the Berkeleys could even have the ultimate authority in the whole of Boren. "Acorn City is in such a remote area. What kind of important figure would come here?" Kayden asked dismissively. Javier thought for a moment before asking, "Don't you think that someone who can make Joaquin humble himself is an im
Cohen bowed deeply to Sebastian as he spoke.Sebastian waved a hand dismissively and said, "It's alright, Mr. Gabbard. Mount Quiln is very dangerous, and that expert from a mystic sect has disappeared without a trace. "If you don't want to let more people become desiccated corpses, it'll be better to seal off the entrance to Mount Quiln and prevent anyone from entering!" Joaquin immediately said to Cohen, "Did you hear that? Starting today, Mount Acorn Martial Arts Court must send someone to seal off the entrance. No one is allowed to go in or out!""Yes, sir!" Cohen nodded vigorously.Joaquin was already being very lenient in not pursuing the matter further. The crimes that Cohen had committed were worthy of the death penalty. "Mr. Ballard, I've arranged for a hotel in Acorn City's central area. You should go and have a shower," Joaquin said ingratiatingly. He took Sebastian to the Aequor, a five-star hotel. The moment they entered, the attendants stood in two rows and bowe
Cohen looked rather troubled as he said, "I'm not sure how to say this, Mr. Ballard. Please come to the Martial Arts Court, and you'll understand!"Sebastian nodded slightly and said to Unus, "Let's go!"As Candy watched Sebastian walk off, she felt as if her heart had been torn apart.Sebastian was so powerful! Why hadn't he said so earlier?Didn't men like showing off their strength and power in front of women? Why had he kept hiding his powers from her?If she had known earlier about how strong Sebastian was, she wouldn't have thought twice about giving herself completely to him."What should we do, Ms. Candy?" one of her bodyguards asked. They could no longer live in that villa when over 100 people had died in the yard. They had to move as soon as possible. Clearly, the villa was now a cursed place.Candy hesitated for a moment before calling one of her best friends. …When Sebastian was invited into the Martial Arts Court, he saw over a dozen corpses at the entrance an
Unus finally stopped fighting with the Lynches and revealed his true form. A humongous snake with black scales and a dragon's head that was close to 300 feet tall reared up into the sky. His bloody maw opened gently, and a strong suction force immediately pulled everyone in the Lynch family."Huh? What's that?" Maclin almost wet his pants in fright. It was a dragon!However, upon closer inspection, something didn't seem right. Dragons had four talons, but Unus' true form did not have any. Its body was smooth and pitch black, but it had the head of a dragon. It looked as if a dragon had been grafted onto a snake, or the other way around.It looked very strange, and there was a cursed energy emanating from it that sent a chill down everyone's spine.Unus' slightly open mouth was like a strong vacuum. The apprentices of the Lynch family were all sucked up into mid-air before falling right into his mouth. In a moment of distraction, Bartemius was also sucked up into the air.
Daxton collapsed and lay on the floor, convulsing violently.In the blink of an eye, over half of the Lynches' apprentices had been swallowed up by Unus.Bartemius stared at Unus in shock. He had swallowed over 50 people alive. But why hadn't his stomach expanded at all?Both Calder and Maclin felt their hairs stand on end with fear. Based on his tongue, which stretched out for several feet, they could only surmise that Unus was some kind of snake.However, they had no idea what kind of snake would be so ferocious. The truth was that they were laughably wrong. Unus wasn't a snake at all. He was a Devora!Even if their mentor was there, he wouldn't have recognized something like that. After all, Devoras had only appeared three times in tens of thousands of years of history. The first time they appeared was when the six kingdoms had been united into one by the First Emperor.The second was during the time of the Nomad King, although it had been wrongly named as another kind of
Chandler had echoed the heart of all martial arts practitioners in Dramon for the past 5,000 years. Sebastian nodded and said, "As expected of a member of the Gladius Sect. You have very high morals. What a pity! It's a huge pity!"Chandler could hear Sebastian's determination in his voice. Even if the Lynches decided not to fight that night, Sebastian would still not forgive them."Is there no other way?" Chandler asked, turning to look at Sebastian.Sebastian shook his head slightly and asked Unus, "Aren't you hungry?"Unus' eyes lit up at once. That was the best news he had heard for the past few days!Bartemius looked at Sebastian in confusion. He didn't understand why he kept asking the burly man beside him whether or not he was hungry.Laurie stepped forward and pointed at Sebastian as he yelled, "Ballard, there are over 100 of us. Even if we only punch you one time each, we can turn you into mincemeat!""One punch each? You'd have to be able to throw out that punch firs
The law enforcement team all stared at Sebastian in shock. Was he going to kill more than 100 members of the Lynch family on his own?Maclin and Calder didn't doubt it at all. If Branson or Kody were here, the Lynches wouldn't be a match for them even if they all gathered together, but even the two of them working together had almost died by Sebastian's hand.If Sebastian wanted to slaughter the entire Lynch family, it would be a piece of cake. At that thought, Maclin and Calder had no choice but to retreat until they were out of the front yard, looking in from afar. When the law enforcement team saw that the Gladius Sect members had left meekly, they followed suit as well.Candy stared in disbelief at the others' retreating figure, looking dazed. She had thought that she knew Sebastian very well and that she was nothing compared to the entire Lynch family.However, reality had taught her a vivid lesson. She had severely underestimated Sebastian's abilities, as well as his infl
Sebastian looked at the three members of the Gladius Sect in the distance. "You three are all the successors of the Gladius Sect. I used to be at the same level as your seniors. We've interacted before, and I don't wish to kill you here. What happened today has nothing to do with you. It's not too late to leave right now!"After Sebastian had spoken, both Calder and Maclin were furious. How old did Sebastian think he was?How could he say that he was of the same level as their senior?"You may be young, but you're very arrogant. I'd like to ask you which senior of mine you know well," Maclin said, smiling coldly.Sebastian gave him a brief smile and said, "It's not just your seniors. If we were to discuss this in detail, I'd probably be on the level of your mystic tier seniors!""You little…" Maclin was about to lose his temper when Chandler stopped him. "Can you tell us what your name is?" Calder asked, looking impassively at Sebastian."Sword Fiend and Sword Zealot!" Sebasti
