After all, Ronny was the most famous doctor in Sunway. If not for the director, Joe Stackhouse, Ronny wouldn't have come all the way to treat Wyatt.However, Ronny was also helpless when it came to Wyatt's condition."Thank you, Mr. Stackhouse," Liam said to the director, adding, "But Dr. Ballard can treat my grandfather."It was clear that Liam had changed his attitude and tone toward Sebastian, and he wasn't as arrogant as before."What? Who's Dr. Ballard? Nobody can guarantee to cure Mr. Holman Senior." Ronny looked at Liam angrily.He added, "Mr. Holman Senior has a piece of shrapnel in his lungs, and even the most advanced technology couldn't retrieve it. As long as it remains, no medication can help."Sebastian chuckled lightly and said, "It's only one small piece. It's not that serious, is it?"What? Only a small piece?Ronny's face darkened when he heard that."I'm starting to doubt your medical skills. Do you know what this means? It means his organs will shut down! E
Ronny found Sebastian's words to be meaningless.Wyatt was a higher-up in Janover's military region. He wouldn't have waited until now if he could be treated. It was impossible that the doctors in Janover were not as competent as Sebastian.Sebastian frowned when he saw Wyatt's pale face and weak breathing. It seemed like Wyatt's condition was even worse than he had expected.Sebastian initially planned to use the Stabilizing Charm to take the shrapnel out, then proceed with acupuncture. However, he had to stabilize Wyatt's condition first."In Mr. Holman Senior's current condition, we shouldn't remove the shrapnel first. Instead, we need to stabilize his vital energy to prevent any accidents. Would you agree, sir?" Sebastian turned to Ronny."Hmph! Easy for you to say. Even I'm not confident about this, and you're just a young upstart. How could you possibly stabilize his condition? Besides, his issues aren't limited to lung failure; his internal organs are showing signs of compl
Ronny put on his reading glasses and carefully examined the herb. Still uncertain, he turned to Sebastian. "Dr. Ballard, do you think this herb is a century old?"After seeing Sebastian's prescription, Ronny's attitude toward him had completely changed. He now regarded Sebastian with the respect of a student toward a mentor.Sebastian glanced at the snow lily in the box and nodded slightly. "Yes, this is indeed a hundred-year-old snow lily."Seeing Sebastian confirm it, Liam was overjoyed. "Dr. Ballard, does this mean my grandfather can be saved?""Yes, let's start by having him take this medicinal decoction," Sebastian replied with a firm nod."That's wonderful! My grandfather will be saved. Dr. Ballard, if you can save him, our entire family will be eternally grateful to you," Liam said respectfully."It's just a small effort. No need for such gratitude, Mr. Holman. However, only the root of this snow lily should be used, not the petals. Using the petals could harm Mr. Holman S
If it were just Sebastian's medical skills, Ronny wouldn't have been so reverent. Traditional medicine originated from Dainism, and it was now rare to find doctors who were also proficient in Dainism practices. Sebastian's extraordinary medical skills and profound Dainism abilities were truly awe-inspiring.Sebastian stepped forward and helped Ronny up. "No need for this, sir. You were just worried about Mr. Holman Senior's condition and didn't want to entrust him to an incompetent doctor."Ronny's face filled with remorse as he forced a smile. "Dr. Ballard, compared to you, I feel utterly inadequate. Your medical skills and moral character far surpass mine."Sebastian patted Ronny's shoulder and turned his gaze to Wyatt on the bed. Wyatt's complexion had regained some color, and the monitors indicated that his bodily functions were improving.Upon seeing his grandfather finally out of danger, Liam's eyes welled up with tears of joy."Dr. Ballard, thank you for saving my grand
What?Rosalie's face turned pale. A billion might be a small amount for the Griffin family. However, it was a huge amount for Rosalie now."Wait for me. I'm coming right away." Rosalie rushed out without even eating her breakfast.When she reached the company, she found out that someone had messed with the deal with Loraeno Group. The culprit was Russell Merlotte, their business partner.After investigating everything, Rosalie called Russell."Hey, Ms. Griffin. How may I help you?" a middle-aged man spoke up on the phone."Russell, why do you think I'm calling you? Don't you understand what happened with the Loraeno Group's deal?" Rosalie's voice was cold, and her face was flushed with anger.Russell replied indifferently, "Loraeno Group? I remember that order was supposed to be in collaboration with the Griffin family. Now that the Griffin family has cut ties with you, well…"Ms. Griffin, you've been in the business world long enough to understand this, I presume. It's not abo
"What are you doing?" Rosalie pulled her hand back and stared at Russell coldly."Russell, I'm telling you, your actions are equivalent to fraud. You'd better compensate for the loss my company had incurred, or we shall meet in court."Russell was surprised to see Rosalie's stern look and attitude. In his memory, she had always been a gentle lady, never associated with being assertive."Ms. Griffin, everything requires evidence. Our company is tight on funds, so pulling out our investment is perfectly justified. How does that count as fraud? "And I advise you to think carefully. The Griffin family won't be backing you up anymore," Russell said with a look that suggested he had Rosalie completely cornered"Is that so? I don't believe there's no justice in this world," Rosalie replied with a cold smile."Justice? Like I said, everything needs evidence." Russell sneered, shaking his head in disdain as his eyes roamed over Rosalie's body.After a moment, Russell said with a lechero
"Sebastian, I didn't want you to worry about me," Rosalie began. "This is a contract signed by the company a year ago, and it has nothing to do with Arctic Snow Group, so I—""It's okay. Leave it to me," Sebastian reassured her while gently patting her shoulder with a smile.Russell eyed Sebastian up and down. He sensed the connection between him and Rosalie from their expressions alone. He smirked and said, "Who do you think you are? I suggest you mind your own business, or you won't be able to handle the consequences.""Enough with the nonsense. Apologize!" Sebastian pointed at Rosalie.To Rosalie? Russell sneered, shaking his head. "You think you can play hero now, don't you? Look at yourself. One call from me, and you'll be begging for mercy."In Russell's eyes, Sebastian was just another pretty boy with no real abilities.Russell was confident in his financial power and connections, so he figured he could easily call a few thugs to teach Sebastian a lesson. He would neve
Sebastian frowned as he glanced at the middle-aged manager approaching him, his brow slightly furrowed. "You all have quite the timing," he said coldly. "When he was being rough to a woman earlier, why didn't you intervene?"The manager's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, and he frowned. "Sir, I apologize, but we have no authority to interfere in disputes between guests. However, if our property is damaged, we cannot ignore it."Obviously, it was a weak excuse.Sebastian chuckled coldly, looking down at Russell on the ground, and said coldly, "Rest assured, any losses here will be compensated."Russell wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and gritted his teeth. "Young man, do you mind if I make a phone call? With just one call, I can end your life! Do you believe it?"Sebastian nodded indifferently and said, "Call someone? Sure, I would like to see how powerful you are."After speaking, Sebastian lifted his foot and pulled Russell up from the ground.Russ
Sebastian nodded slightly. Yorrick had probably killed the young man because the latter was proficient in mystic spells and was already on the brink of the threshold. That could be the only reason for Yorrick's senseless deedThere were some people who couldn't bear seeing people who were stronger than them, which was why they made their move before their opponent could grow and develop."Are you really going to concede three moves to me, old man?" Sebastian stepped forward, grinning."Of course!" Yorrick answered, staring arrogantly at him.He still hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary with Sebastian, so he assumed that Sebastian was just an ordinary guy. He had probably only been able to defeat so many experts—including Egbert—because he had used some kind of trick. Egbert had lost because he had fallen into Sebastian's trap, not because of the latter's skills. That was why Egbert ended up suffering from the backlash of the ghost he had nurtured and lost his powers."I'll
"Young man, you're so cruel. Have you ever thought of the consequences of your actions?" Yorrick asked. He put his hands behind his back as he walked slowly toward Sebastian. Sebastian eyed Yorrick, whose training was at least on the same level as Egbert's. Besides, what he had studied was also a kind of spell. He and Sebastian specialized in the same study.The moment Yorrick got angry, Sebastian had sensed the faint power of Dainist principles from him."No blows are kind, and neither are harsh words! Why do you people feel that others should meekly allow you to beat them up? When your people are injured, you immediately think of it as the other party's mistake! That doesn't make any sense!" Sebastian answered coldly."Mr. Irving, kill that asshole!" Kayden said viciously. He was still clutching his crotch with one hand while he pointed at Sebastian with his other hand. Beside them, Jayden said defiantly, "Mr. Irving, you must not let this guy go! He's ruthless and extremely
Huh? Egbert frowned involuntarily. He had never felt that way before. What was going on? There was a loud blast, and the gigantic statue suddenly appeared out of thin air. At the same time, Egbert suddenly felt his blood churning inside him, and he immediately felt a sense of foreboding.He was about to turn and run when a black bolt of light hit him in the back. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew through the air like a broken kite. "Oh! Are you actually a sadist, old man?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Before Egbert could scramble up again, yet another bolt of dark light flew toward him."Damn it!"Egbert could no longer be conscious of his image and dignity. He swore at once. The dark light was aimed at his energy reserve. If he was hit, his decades of training would be completely ruined. However, he had plenty of life experience and had been through many such situations. When he saw the dark light flying toward him, he rolled across the floor like a bal
The dark shadow stretched out a large hand toward Nina. It appeared to be planning on tearing off her clothes. "Die?" Nina burst into laughter. How dare a ghost who was only around 300 years old talk to her about dying? As the smile stiffened on Nina's face, she bared her teeth, revealing fangs. Her scarlet eyes looked up impassively at the dark shadow above her head. "Aargh!" When the gigantic, dark shadow saw Nina's true form, it turned to try and escape, but it was too close to her that it was impossible for it to do so.It had only taken one step backward before Nina reached out and yanked it back."Have mercy, my lady!" The giant shadow disappeared and became a dark and scrawny-looking ghost that was less than five feet tall. "How dare you disrupt my dreams? You deserve to disintegrate into nothing!"Nina raised her hand and pressed down on top of the dark and scrawny ghost's head. "No!"The dark and scrawny ghost fell to its knees with a thump before Nina and sa
The Sacred Medicine Secret Annals also contained mystic spells from the Demon Sect. However, it was clearly written that those who practiced them would suffer divine punishment if they were to excel in it!Those were very heavy words indeed. How evil did those spells have to be if they would bring down divine punishment on those who excelled in practicing them?"Hmph! Stop trying to act as if you're smart in front of me. Have you ever seen such amazing spells? Believe it or not, I can kill your entire family with a click of my fingers?"There was a sinister tinge to Egbert's smile. With ordinary people, Egbert would only have to send out a thought to kill the entire family of his opponent instantly.However, Sebastian was being very dismissive of him. Evil spells like those required the supernatural spirit behind Egbert to sense the opponent's energy, after which they would use the same energy to find their family members.The process wasn't as mysterious as Egbert made it out
Those deceptive tricks appeared impressive, but those who Egbert healed would only end up in an even worse state, suffering even more."I haven't committed any crimes. How can I accept my punishment?" Sebastian asked disinterestedly.Brayden sneered. "You're not the one who decides whether you've committed a crime or not. Come! Subdue this defiant man!"Subdue Sebastian? Who would dare to do such a thing?The law enforcement hall members exchanged looks.Upon seeing this, Egbert stepped forward and said arrogantly, "Young man, you've seen what I can do. Compared to me, you martial arts practitioners aren't worthy of mention at all. I'll be lenient on you because you're young and ignorant. Just give up and come quietly!"Egbert was different from ordinary deacons in the Martial Arts Court. He had been hired specially as a mystic spells expert.When compared with mystic spells or cultivation, so-called martial arts weren't worthy of mention at all.That was because all mystic spe
Brayden sneered. "Kill you and cover this up? You overestimate yourselves. This is an act of protecting officials!" The bare fact of the matter was that they were going to kill everyone who knew about the Berkeleys' depraved acts. Once they had done so, the Berkeleys' perfect image would be restored. "Do you think that it's reasonable and lawful for Kayden to act the way he does?" Sebastian asked in a cold, accusing voice. "There's no helping it. Those in power must have some privileges. That's an accepted fact in the world. It's your fault for not being part of this class of people. If you're going to blame anyone, blame yourselves for being born in the wrong family!" Brayden said smugly as he shot Egbert Galen a glance. Egbert strode over to Kayden and crouched down to inspect his injuries. He tapped him with a finger. "Aargh!" The pain made huge beads of sweat drip down Kayden's face."Alright. You can stand up and take a few steps, Mr. Kayden!" Egbert said, putting his
"Oh?" Brayden glanced twice at Sebastian before asking, "What crime has Mr. Kayden committed? Tell me!" Sebastian couldn't be bothered to argue with him and just played the phone recording. The two old men frowned involuntarily when they finished listening to it."You're Inspector Jefferson, aren't you? I'd like to ask you how anyone could want to sleep with a bride at a wedding banquet in front of thousands of guests. Is he an animal? Don't the Berkeleys do this sort of thing in private?"Does this mean that when someone in the Berkeley family gets married, any of the guests or even a mere passerby can have their way with the bride in front of all their friends and family?"Javier turned red, then pale as he listened. He pointed at Sebastian and cursed him loudly. "You bastard! Stop talking nonsense!""Inspector Jefferson, since you admire Mr. Kayden's genes so much, why don't you let him improve your family's gene pool as well? You should especially let Mr. Kayden help out wi
Two black-clad men came up to the car door and opened it for Brayden, who then got out of the car. As he alighted, two elderly men also got out of the black car behind him. They came up beside Brayden and said, "Inspector Jefferson!" Brayden clasped his hands behind his back and nodded as he said, "Mr. Galen, Mr. Irving. Come and get rid of this nuisance with me today. Remember, we must not show any mercy!" The two old men nodded slightly and said, "We'll do as you say, Inspector Jefferson!"Brayden nodded slightly and said to Jayden, "Lead the way!" Jayden hastily gestured for them to go ahead. He led them happily into the Aequor.He had fled the hotel just a while ago, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have transformed into a different person. He walked into the hotel with his chest puffed up, and his entire demeanor had changed. The attendants on the first floor looked at him in surprise. "Did that handsome young guy go and get himself an invigorating shot of so
