The Thirteen Elites were martial arts experts secretly trained by Alec. They were either traitors or outcasts from thirteen different sects. They were all ruthless, violent, and utterly remorseless. They were also known as the cleaners of the Griffin family, often handling Alec's under-the-table deals.At this moment, thirteen scary figures emerged from all corners of the estate. Their appearance alone was enough to instill fear. Several of them bore terrifying brands on their faces. Those were not tattoos but burn marks embedded in their flesh."Well, well, what a tender young man." A seductive woman with her eyes glinting coldly sneered as she licked her bright red lips and stared at Sebastian. Her voluptuous figure swayed as she walked, her ample chest bouncing. Her very presence exuded a sinister vibe that screamed, "Stay away.""Black Widow! Calm down. You get too excited whenever you see a man," grumbled a burly man who was muscular. He had dark skin, and his arms were c
With a loud bang, Grindel was sent flying through the air, much to the horror of the remaining Twelve Elites and Alec. He rolled across the ground like a massive meatball and finally came to a stop several feet away.Everyone was stunned. What just happened?When they finally took it all in, they realized that half of Grindel's body had been shattered from the collision with Sebastian. He lay there unconsciously and covered in blood.Sebastian stood calmly while dusting off his chest and exhaling. "So much for the Shieldan Sect. They're nothing special."The Twelve Elites were frozen in shock, eyes wide with terror. It became clear to them that Sebastian was extraordinarily strong."Kill him! Kill him now!" Alec ordered, his face pale from what just happened.The remaining Twelve Elites didn't hesitate as they immediately surrounded Sebastian. They gave off really terrifying killing intent.Sebastian glanced at the twelve of them with a calm demeanor. "A bunch of rejects fr
Sebastian carried Rosalie away from the Griffin residence and booked a suite at a five-star hotel. After resting for a while, Rosalie felt much better.Sebastian then asked, "Why are you suddenly marrying Stephen?""It's not me who wants to marry him. My mom is forcing me to!" Rosalie replied angrily.She then explained the situation. Her mother had tricked her into returning to Janover by claiming there was a problem with the Griffin family. Once back, her uncle, Alec had her confined. At first, Rosalie resisted, but then Alec drugged her with Rohypnol.Sebastian's face darkened. "Your mother is ruthless.""I will never speak to her again!" Rosalie declared angrily."So what do you plan to do now?""What else can I do? I'm definitely not marrying Stephen!" Rosalie said firmly. She then looked at Sebastian with a sudden smile. "Maybe I should marry you instead. That way, my mom can't do anything about it."Sebastian frowned. "I think it's better if I just take you back home
"I know him?" Stephen frowned.Madison continued, "Sebastian from Steinberg. He trespassed my house just now and took Rosalie away."Stephen was infuriated at the news. "Fuck! This bastard is now causing trouble in Janover!" Stephen's face twisted with anger.He was taught a lesson by Sebastian in Steinberg because he wasn't familiar with that place. But now, this was Janover, the territory of the Beckard family!Stephen didn't care anymore and said to his subordinate, "Call some men with me. Let's go get Rosalie.""Alright, Mr. Beckard," replied the subordinate."Wait!" Stephen shouted. "Yes?" the subordinate asked.Stephen frowned and spoke in a low tone, "Call more men. Also, call the five elders from our courtyard. Tonight, apart from bringing Rosalie back, I want Sebastian dead!""Got it!" The subordinate then went to arrange it.Alec and Madison gave each other a look and said, "Mr. Beckard, we'll leave you to it and go back first. We look forward to your good news!"
Stephen's hundreds of guards charged at Sebastian with a deafening roar. The hotel lobby was thrown into chaos, filled with shouting and the rush of bodies.Sebastian's eyes narrowed, and his face darkened. Without wasting a breath, he sprang into action.In the blink of an eye, Sebastian moved like lightning, disappearing from view. The next moment, cries of agony erupted.Ten of the guards were sent flying, clutching their chests as they hit the ground, coughing up blood and dying instantly.Before the others could react, a dark blur passed by them. Sebastian moved swiftly, breaking arms with a sickening crack. Then, screams of pain filled the air. It was a complete massacre.The hundreds of Beckard family guards barely caught a glimpse of Sebastian before they saw their comrades falling one after another. His figure flickered like a ghost, appearing and disappearing before their eyes.Within moments, all the guards were down. They were writhing on the ground and groaning
It was bone-chilling cold.Just when Sebastian was lost in thought, Zephyr had already made his move. He raised his hand and planted his feet on the ground before shooting toward Sebastian. He was almost skimming the floor!As he raised his hand, a black ghostly claw gathered in his palm, and he fiercely struck at Sebastian's chest!If this strike landed, it would be fatal.Sebastian could also feel the terrifying evil energy contained in this attack. It was indeed someone from the Evilax Sect.The style of this technique confirmed it beyond doubt."From the Evilax Sect, huh? Who gave you the courage to strike at me?" Sebastian said coldly.Upon hearing this, Zephyr became furious and yelled. "Ignorant brat!"With a roar, the black evil energy in his palm seemed to boil as he struck toward Sebastian.Sebastian snorted coldly, raised his hand, and similarly sent a palm strike through the air."Hmm?"The other four retainers frowned upon seeing this, their eyes filled with ast
After Zephyr finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved. The faint red evil spirit behind him leaped toward Sebastian. Wherever it passed, it was like being struck by a storm. The floor tiles shattered, and the walls, doors, windows, and furnishings all cracked and burst apart. Even the chandeliers above exploded one by one with a popping sound.Upon seeing this scene, the other four retainers also showed disdain toward Sebastian."Mr. Nolan is really angry. No one can survive under this evil spirit.""It's been many years since I've seen Zephyr act like this.""Looking at this momentum, it seems that Zephyr's strength has improved again."Several people nodded in succession as they commented on Zephyr.Stephen, who saw the terrifying blood-red evil spirit, was also scared. He apparently had not seen this situation before.It was so scary.Was this what martial arts sects practiced?No wonder his father often instructed him to respect the worshipers in their house."Se
"This is the Sky Devouring Bottle?" Zephyr was so excited that his face was twisted.He did not expect to see the legendary Sky Devouring Bottle in his lifetime.Then, the greed in Zephyr's heart was aroused! The other four retainers also showed greedy expressions upon hearing the words "Sky Devouring Bottle."In an instant, the four retainers, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped forward. Their eyes were fixed greedily on Sebastian."Hand over the Sky Devouring Bottle! We might spare your life!""This thing is beyond your control. Hand it over!""If you don't want to die, give me the bottle!"The four retainers stared intently at the Sky Devouring Bottle in Sebastian's hand.Sebastian laughed mockingly and said coldly, "What? You want to take the Sky Devouring Bottle from me? I'm afraid you don't have the capability!""How arrogant!""Very reckless!""Everyone, let's attack together and finish him off! As for the Sky Devouring Bottle, we can discuss it after
Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head at Nina's words. "Nina, you're staying behind so everyone thinks I'm still here. Rowan and Arran will stay here with you so that no one will become suspicious!"Nina frowned. "But I'll be worried about you being with Unus. It's still just a beast whose rational capabilities aren't fully developed yet. What if it—"Sebastian smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry. Hugo has subdued them completely already, so nothing unexpected will happen. Honestly, there isn't much in Boren that worries me. However, if the Yome Sect enters Steinberg while its defenses are down, we'll be put in a difficult position."Though reluctant, Nina finally agreed.That night, Sebastian quietly brought Unus out with him. As soon as he walked out of the hotel doors, two thugs hiding at the side of the road who had been watching them stealthily immediately reported his movements to Anton."Are you sure it was Sebastian?" Anton demanded sharply."Positive! He looks e
"Kneel!" Joaquin yelled at Anton the moment he entered the room.Anton immediately dropped to his knees with a loud thud in front of Sebastian."My lord, my son is worthless. Everything that happened before was his doing. He has been a disgrace to our family. Please have mercy on his crimes," Joaquin said. He looked up at Sebastian and was puzzled to see how terrible his complexion was.Nina had been injured the day before, so why was it now the other way around? She had a rosy complexion, while Sebastian looked as white as a sheet."Alright. The important thing is to learn from one's mistakes and change. Don't forget the oath that you made. If you break it, I won't have to punish you. The law of heaven will act accordingly!" Sebastian said coldly."Yes, of course! I would never dare to break the oath! But…" Joaquin looked at Sebastian with a troubled expression.Sebastian frowned slightly and asked, "But what?""I can see that you don't look very well, my lord. Should I prepa
After resting for the whole night, Nina's complexion had almost returned to normal. Even the wounds on her body had almost healed.In stark contrast, Sebastian looked worse than ever.It was the aftereffect of losing too much blood essence. If it wasn't for the fact that he had the legacy of the Sacred Medicine Society, he might have already been half-dead. Even so, Sebastian felt weaker than he had ever felt before. His legs felt like jelly, and he was unsteady on his feet."My lord…"Rowan blanched with fear when he saw Sebastian. Sebastian was as pale as a sheet. Even his lips had lost all color."My lord, how did you get into this state?" Rowan asked, clearly confused. Sebastian had seemed fine when they returned to Mount Klane the night before. Waving his hand slightly, Sebastian replied, "I'm fine. I'll get better after some rest. Why are you up so early?"Rowan grew even more worried after hearing how frail Sebastian sounded."My lord, did you get severely injured o
As the car started, the two burly men kept close behind it.Rowan looked back at them from time to time and saw that the two burly men were keeping a fixed distance from the car. He couldn't help gasping.Weren't they walking inhumanly fast?"My lord, they—"Rowan pointed at the two burly men behind them."Don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask about," Sebastian said, looking down at Nina, who was still in a coma.He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her complexion was becoming rosy once more.After arriving back in Mount Klane, Sebastian checked into a five-star hotel at Joaquin's insistence. Once he had settled Nina in, Sebastian called the two Devora to his room."Do you have names?" he asked.The two Devora shook their heads slightly. Like Hugo had said, they had been born of Dragon Energy, and they caught beasts in the mountains for food every day. Why would they have names?"Well, you've got to give me a way to differentiate between you, right? You even
Arran and Rowan asked in confusion, "Aren't we going to look for the Ballard Estate anymore, my lord?"Sebastian turned to look at Arran. "We'll die before we reach the Ballard Estate!"Arran didn't know how powerful Nina was, but Rowan knew better than anyone that Nina was a top expert. If even she had gotten severely injured, Rowan and Arran would have no chance of entering Mount Quiln at all."Arran, trust in Mr. Ballard. Leaving Mount Quiln is the right thing to do!" Rowan said. He held Joaquin safely and asked Sebastian, "What do we do with him, my lord?"Sebastian turned to look at Joaquin. He said impassively, "Joaquin, I should execute you on the spot!"Joaquin immediately knelt and groveled. "Mr. Ballard, I'm willing to be your servant too. Please, if you don't kill me, you can tell me to do anything!""I don't have to kill you, but you mustn't let anything about what happened tonight leak out. Otherwise, I'll kill your entire family!" Sebastian said coldly.Joaquin s
"Do you think it's worth losing all your training to save her? Aren't you afraid of dying?" Hugo couldn't help asking bluntly. Sebastian smiled slightly. "I'm scared! However, she only got into this state because she was trying to save me. How could I just abandon her? We may just be master and servant, but our fates are related!"Hugo couldn't help shaking his head. "Young man, I can only save you this time. As we move forward, I may have trouble even protecting myself. Therefore, take these two items and go home!" Hugo reached out with one hand and dropped the Devora in front of Sebastian. He had been tortured half to death.The Devora was panting heavily. Although he understood that Hugo couldn't kill him, the endless torture was worse than death."Bite the tip of your tongue and wipe the blood on his brow!" Hugo instructed blandly.Sebastian held Nina up with one hand and did as Hugo had said. "Now say, the servant dies with the master, and heaven and earth bear witness!"
In less than a minute, the Devora was sent flying over ten times. The strange thing was that no matter how many times he was sent flying or how hard the impact was, he didn't bleed at all. Sebastian was secretly shocked. "Do you know why you were defeated so badly?" Hugo tapped his finger again as he spoke.Sebastian shook his head. Before that day, he hadn't even known what a Devora was. How could he possibly know why he had failed so badly? It must just be a question of skill!"How bold of you. You didn't even know the history of a Devora, and yet you dared to enter the mountain?" Hugo laughed wryly."Aren't Devoras one of the nine sons of the dragon?" Sebastian asked, looking up. Hugo spat disdainfully and asked, "Who told you that? Roveras are one of the dragon's sons, but Devoras aren't!"As he spoke, Hugo tossed a blood-red pill out and said, "Let her eat it. Use your blood essence and this pill to save her."Sebastian was startled. How could he obtain his blood esse
"A Devora? Oh no!" Samson suddenly returned to his senses. He almost rushed out through the gates, but then flames roared up around him. A wall of fire that was several hundred feet high blocked his path! Samson was Sebastian's father. After being imprisoned in the house over ten years ago, Samson had become cut off from the world. He had thought that he would never be able to see his wife and son again. Getting news of Sebastian once more was very unexpected!However, Sebastian had come across the Devoras. He was almost certainly going to die!In Samson's anxiety, he had even forgotten the Fyre Spell that had been set up around the house, which was why he had run right into the spell center and triggered the Fyre!Samson felt extremely anxious as he looked at the Fyre Spell, but he was unable to take even half a step out. "Hugo!" Samson roared at the Fyre Spell.As he shouted, an old man in long, white robes slowly materialized out of nowhere. "Well? Have you thought thi
"Indigo Thunder Shield!" Sebastian chanted under his breath as he used all his strength. A purple flash of lightning appeared around Sebastian. There was a blast as the punch landed heavily on his body. It felt like a falling meteor as it clashed with the indigo lightning! A loud sound boomed in the area, like a mountain exploding, and Sebastian flew backward.The burly man felt equally uncomfortable. The indigo lightning had shocked him so much that his legs had gone numb. "How many other tricks do you have up your sleeve?" The Devora stood up straight and advanced on Sebastian, who was lying on the ground!…In the mountains, in the backyard of the Ballard Estate, Andreas was holding a tablet and pointing at Sebastian and Nina on the screen. They were both throwing up blood and lying on the ground. He said to Whitney, "Whitney, I am not against you fasting, but—"Andreas grinned and asked, "Can you really bear watching Sebastian and that thousand-year-old snake deity ju
