The Northmans didn't just have extensive connections in the pharmaceutical industry. They were also very influential in the fields of business and politics.The Northmans held the banquet at the Pullman Hotel, the best hotel in Steinberg. Naturally, Larys was in attendance.If the Northmans decided to construct factories in Steinberg and start production, it would be a good political achievement for Larys.As the banquet hadn't officially begun, everyone was chatting in clusters of twos and threes.Fergus was talking animatedly with a few business owners in the Steinberg pharmaceutical industry. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted the VIP lounge and saw Sebastian and Rosalie eating fancy-looking desserts. He immediately frowned.He felt that a small company like Sebastian and Rosalie's was not worthy of entering the VIP lounge. They had probably gotten into the VIP lounge by shamelessly using Fergus' status and name!After all, many people had seen him talking to Sebastian w
Fergus put one hand in his pocket and looked down loftily at Sebastian as he spoke."Where I go has nothing to do with any kind of connection with you, Mr. Cobb. Neither you nor the Cobb family have much importance at all," Sebastian retorted coldly.If Fergus wanted to talk about status, then the Cobbs were nothing."Oh, you're saying that my family isn't important?" Fergus laughed in anger.After all, he wasn't just the heir of the Cobbs. Now, he was also one of the executives of Bashmore Group's subsidiary in Steinberg.How dare a loser like Sebastian say that the Cobbs weren't important to Fergus' face? Who had given him the courage to speak so boldly?"Arctic Snow Group is a small company that was just established. Is there even anyone in Steinberg's pharmaceutical industry who knows you? As for the entire Sartvale, it's out of the question."What gives someone like you the right to talk about status and importance with me? How dare you say that the Cobb family isn't as imp
After Mabel had finished, the crowd of onlookers covered their mouths, tittering.Although many of them had seen Sebastian on television or through live broadcasts on the Internet, he had only been a contestant at a medical conference.How could a doctor who practiced traditional medicine have any kind of status or influence? Besides, the banquet had been organized by the Sunway Northmans.Compared to the Northmans, Sebastian was less than an ant.However, Mabel had only just finished speaking when an icy voice spoke from the entrance, "I am very sorry, miss. I'm going to have to interrupt you."Zeke and Theodore walked slowly over from the entrance. Zeke's face was as black as thunder. There was a frosty, murderous look in his ink-black eyes.Tonight was a very important night for the Northmans, but the most essential thing was to establish a good relationship with Sebastian.However, Zeke had only left for five minutes when that idiotic woman popped up out of nowhere to critic
Now that Fergus thought about it, perhaps it really hadn't had anything to do with Simon.Before he could speak, there was another icy voice. "I think that this lady's brain isn't working very well. Since when have we ever acted according to the Cobbs' wishes?"The crowd parted, and Hans walked out from behind Theodore. He looked very threatening. As he walked, his shiny leather shoes clicked against the floor, and every sound seemed terrifying."Do the Cobbs think that I collaborated with Frostwave Corporation on their account? Are you Cobbs so poor that you can't even afford to buy a mirror? "Zack, I'll give you one second to get out here and kneel! Otherwise, the entire Cobb family will be extinguished!" Hans was truly angry this time. There was a frosty light in his eyes. Even the bodyguards behind him stepped backward, intimidated by his imposing manner. They had been working with Hans for many years, but this was the first time they had seen him lose his temper like this
As soon as Eugene spoke, the onlookers were completely dazed. Even Fergus looked at Sebastian in disbelief.Whitney felt as if she had been shaken awake from a dream. She looked in disbelief at Sebastian, who was calmly sipping tea.How could this be?Whitney remained dazed for about half a minute before she finally said in tones of shock, "Was everything thanks to you?"Sebastian only looked impassively at her without answering.At that moment, a rich voice rang out from the direction of the lounge. "That's right. Although Mr. Ballard and I have only had a chance encounter, I know a few things about the events at Steinberg."Ms. Sutton, why didn't you think about it more? The Cobbs are just a small family, even in Steinberg, let alone in Sunway. How could Fergus have that kind of importance?"Why would people that even the head of the Cobb family wouldn't dare to provoke attribute any importance to Fergus?"Whitney felt her head spinning as a million thoughts rushed through he
"Now, allow me to introduce you to Northstar Pharma's future partners—Ms. Rosalie Griffin, the CEO of Arctic Snow Group, and Mr. Sebastian Ballard, the Chief Advisor of Northstar Pharma and Arctic Snow Group!"Theodore's intention of relating Arctic Snow Group to Northstar Pharma was very obvious.Sebastian wasn't only the Chief Advisor of Arctic Snow Group but also for Northstar Pharma. His status was nearly the same as Theodore's."Congratulations, Mr. Ballard!" Larys walked toward Sebastian and shook his hand the moment Theodore finished speaking.Niall Baldwin, the director of Wellings Pharmaceuticals, also walked toward Sebastian with a face full of smiles. "Mr. Ballard, please visit Sunway more. We very much welcome an individual like you for investment opportunities."As the two important figures went up to Sebastian, other big shots became aware of the situation. All of them approached Sebastian and started to greet him warmly.Instantly, Sebastian became the center of at
At this moment, Fergus' face was flushed red after Rosalie questioned him. He had never taken Sebastian seriously. He even looked down on him, thinking that he was just a nobody.But now? He finally understood that he was the nobody.Theodore gave Fergus a disdainful glance, and coldly ordered, "Kick these two out. Also, we don't welcome Frostwave Corporation. Ms. Sutton, I think it's best if you leave."The middle-aged man who stopped Fergus just now walked over with a stone-cold face and grabbed his collar. Then, he pulled Fergus out of the door.He tossed Fergus outside, sending him rolling on the ground. Fergus only stopped rolling when he knocked on the bush by the street.As for Mabel and Whitney, the guards gestured and said to them nicely, "Ms. Sutton, please leave. You're not welcomed here."Whitney was stunned. Then, she turned to look at Sebastian. With a sigh, she had no choice but to leave the hall with Mabel."Winnie…" When she was about to get into her car, Ferg
"From today onward, you don't need to report for work anymore."With that, Whitney got into her car and sped off.As she watched Whitney's car drive away, Mabel initially still had a regretful look on her face. But soon, the look turned into rage and hatred."Whitney!" Mabel clenched her fist and gritted her teeth. "I will make you kneel and apologize to me one day!"As for Fergus, who was lying in his pool of blood, he clenched his hands into fists as he stared angrily at Whitney's car.Not only did he fail to bring Whitney into Jace's bed, but all his lies and deceits were exposed. Moreover, Whitney even criticized him so badly. These were all thanks to Sebastian!"Sebastian! Whitney! Just you wait! As long as I'm alive, I'll never let the two of you live in peace!"The moment he finished speaking, he fainted.…Meanwhile, at Cairo Club, which was nearby Pullman Hotel, Jace was staring at the surveillance camera of the dining hall. He smiled at Trevor. "Mr. Northman, it seem
Blake commanded a few Warrior League apprentices to load the Medcroft Cauldron into the car before gesturing politely to Sebastian. "After you, Mr. Ballard."Sebastian said goodbye to Belinda before getting in. Afterward, he handed Blake a bottle of Gold Remedy. "How are your injuries?"Blake shook his head. "I'm fine. However, you need to be careful after getting back, Mr. Ballard. I'm afraid that the Yutarian Warriors aren't going to let things go so easily."Sebastian hadn't been well-known before, but after what happened in the arena, his name had spread fast. "Don't worry. Let them come if they want to," Sebastian said, smiling slightly.…When Sebastian carried the Medcroft Cauldron into the convenience store, Nina and Lyanna both turned to look at him."There's something strange about this cauldron," Lyanna said, frowning. She could sense a frightening tendril of energy from it. It was an ancient, powerful object that was very mysterious, and it clashed with her ghostl
The Yutarians would be very likely to try and penetrate the three divine mountains to find the Reincarnation Pill if they were unable to find anything in other places.The Warriors that had been sent to Steinberg were probably only a distraction.Steinberg was just a small city, after all, and Sartvale was just a small state in Dramon that didn't have many legends in its history.The three divine mountains were different. Every single mountainous region contained countless legends and stories.The Medcroft had been named as the place where the Way of Wisdom had originated.Norlyn was named the home of deities.Meanwhile, Caela was called the gate to paradise. Even in the present day, there had been no one who had managed to explore the three divine mountains thoroughly. No one could reveal the secrets of those three divine mountains either."Madam Dragon, do you mean that we should delay them or destroy them here in Steinberg while we also send someone to keep an eye on the th
The losses they had suffered that night were too severe. More importantly, they had offended Jorvahn.Giovanni felt that there had been nothing wrong with his plan. The only mistake they had made was in allowing Saul to escape, which resulted in the entire thing getting exposed."Mr. Conti!" Luigi's voice came from the doorway as Giovanni was wiping down the blade."Please come in, Mr. Coppola," Giovanni said as he continued to wipe down the Yutarian saber.The door was pushed open, and Luigi walked into the room. When he saw that Giovanni was actually wiping down his Yutarian saber, his eyes widened."Mr. Conti, are you…"Giovanni smiled bitterly and said, "It's what our superiors want. I'm sure that someone will come and take over for me tomorrow morning."He sighed deeply.Luigi hastily pressed Giovanni's hand and said, "Mr. Conti, this has nothing to do with you. This is all due to my negligence."Giovanni shook his head slightly and said, "That is no longer important. How
Belinda nodded slightly and said, "Hold grand funerals for those who are dead and take care of their families.""Yes, Madam," Blake replied. He looked stern as he waved at the Warrior League apprentices. They all quickly picked up the corpses of the Warrior League apprentices on the ground and carried them into the cars.Someone took out gasoline and poured it over the assassins.Sebastian lit a cigarette and took a few drags. He then flung it at the pile of corpses.As flames roared into the air, Blake said coldly, "Get into the cars and let's go!"The procession of cars began driving toward Ventus Estate. …After Luigi had managed to escape, he stopped a few miles away. The assassins who had followed him slowly gathered together.After counting the people present, Luigi couldn't help sighing heavily. Out of over 300 assassins, almost half of them were dead. How was he going to explain this to Giovanni?"Warrior League!" Luigi clenched his fists viciously."Mr. Coppola, m
Blake was shocked to see that the apprentice had been killed right in front of his eyes. He waved quickly to his right and left.There was the sound of doors opening and closing as over 200 Warrior League apprentices jumped out of the cars.The rustling sound in the woods could be heard from either side of them."The assassins have caught up!" Saul said nervously.Although he was very confident in Sebastian's skills, he was still only one person. The Warrior League had more people, but the assassins were in the shadows. It was a disadvantageous situation for the Warrior League.There was a sharp whistling noise as countless throwing spikes shot out of the woods. Several Warrior League apprentices fell to the ground."Turn off the car headlights!" Sebastian shouted at the Warrior League members.All the car headlights were turned off at once, and it became pitch-black. Sebastian opened the car door softly and leaped into the woods. There was the crunch of bones breaking, and
"They're afraid that the Juwanian King Jorvahn will lead a force to Dramon and affect their plans. That's why they wanted to kill everyone. Their goal is to find the Reincarnation Pill in Dramon," Belinda said as she analyzed the situation.Sebastian frowned, deep in thought. Soon, he nodded in agreement.That was the only explanation that made sense.Otherwise, there was really no reason for the Yutarian Warriors to slaughter all the Yvantonian Warriors when there was no grudge between them."They killed all of my people. As long as you keep me safe, I'll tell King Jorvahn about everything that happened here. I can guarantee that King Jorvahn will destroy all of them, and he won't hold you responsible," Saul said urgently to Sebastian and Belinda. Sebastian and the Warrior League were Saul's last hope. They were still more than ten miles away from the city, and it would be impossible for him to flee there if he had to run. Besides, the enemy would be sure to chase after him if
A few other Warrior League apprentices went up to them. When they were close enough, one of them asked coldly, "What are you shouting about in the middle of the night?"Saul looked fearfully at them and asked, "Where's Mr. Ballard? I want to see him! Something huge has happened!"He was very pale, and he looked extremely afraid. The Warrior League apprentices frowned, and one of them immediately took out his phone to call Blake.Upon hearing Blake's voice, the apprentice told him about how Saul had run over to them to ask for help.Blake nodded and said, "Don't hang up yet. Let me ask Madam Dragon."Blake hurriedly rolled down the window and waved a hand at the cars behind him, indicating for them to stop temporarily."Madam Dragon, Yvanton's team leader has come to ask for help, and he bumped into some of our men who were fixing their car. Do you think…"Belinda and Sebastian were both startled. Sebastian had just killed Jorvahn's grandson, and now Saul had come to ask them
"That's right! This time, we must find the Reincarnation Pill!" said another Warrior.If Jorvahn did turn up in Dramon, the Yutarian Warriors would be wiped out by him. Yutaria had sent over 300 Warriors this time, not just to defeat Dramon's Warriors in the arena. They had an even more important mission. They had to stay in Dramon and find the Reincarnation Pill!There were only less than three years until the day when their ancestral god would be restored. The ancestral god would remain asleep forever if they couldn't get the Reincarnation Pill back within those three years.At that time, the islands of Yutaria might even sink into the sea because of the ancestral god's deep slumber. This was a secret that Yutaria had hidden for thousands of years."Kill them all so they won't have a chance to spread the news!" Giovanni finally made up his mind after hesitating for a while."Yes, sir!" The Warriors straightened up simultaneously and bowed to Giovanni.Luigi waved a hand
The news of how Jorvahn's grandson had been chopped into mincemeat and fed to dogs caused a commotion in the family at once.However, Dramon was too far away, and they didn't know enough about the situation there. Even though they wanted revenge, they would have to wait for the visiting team to return to Yvanton before they could gain more information and form a plan.…On the way back to the city, Belinda was worried for Sebastian and said, "Mr. Ballard, although there's nothing wrong with killing the grandson of the Juwanian King Jorvahn, chopping the two into mincemeat and feeding them to the dogs was a little inappropriate."She didn't just have connections with the high-level officials of Dramon, but she also had many friends in the international martial arts community. However, she had never had any dealings with Jorvahn before.Jorvahn had a terrible reputation in both Yarroland and Velkashan. He was extremely hard to deal with, and it wasn't because he was capable. It was
