Chapter 905

Author: Wendell Mayhew
All the guests at the venue tactfully stood up and took their leave from Theodore.

Only after everyone had left did Theodore suddenly slam his hand on the table and yell angrily, "Trevor, you've really got some nerve!

"Double dealing is one thing, but to bring outsiders to sabotage the Northman family's efforts? Do you realize what tonight's dinner meant for us?"

"If not for Mr. Ballard's tremendous luck, by tomorrow morning, our family would have become the laughingstock of the entire Sartvale!

"A creature as low as you is not worthy of staying with us any longer. From today onward, you are no longer part of the Northman family. I give you one day to leave, or else, you will face the consequences!"

Trevor was shocked. He felt like he had been struck by lightning. He heavily depended on the Northman family's backing, without which he might be reduced to begging on the streets.

"Uncle Theodore, I realize my mistake now! Please give me one more chance. Mr. Ballard, I shouldn't be e

    Theodore kicked Trevor away and led the Northman family members out of the hall angrily.As he watched their departing figures, a deep-seated hatred flickered in Trevor's eyes.If it had been Theodore who died instead of his father back then, he would already be the heir of the Northman family.But Theodore, who was ungrateful and ruthless, not only forgot the past but also wanted to expel him from the family."If I can't have it, no one else can!" Trevor gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and stood up resolutely with a sinister expression. Then, he strode out of the hall.Half an hour later, Trevor stormed into Jace's suite. The moment he entered, he shouted angrily, "Jace, I trusted you, but look at the people you introduced me to!"As he spoke, Trevor recounted everything that had happened in the hall.Jace lounged on the couch while holding a half glass of red wine and sipped it slowly with a smile as he listened to Trevor's story.After Trevor finished, Jace gently set

    Trevor eyed Elton warily and frowned. "I wonder what Mr. Reynolds has in mind to change my uncle's decision?""Possession," Elton said in a raspy voice.What? Trevor was startled initially, then skeptically frowned. "Mr. Reynolds, what era do you think we live in? Those old superstitions... They're not very credible."Elton gave Trevor a cold smile, then stretched out a thin finger and lightly touched Trevor's forehead.Trevor suddenly felt darkness engulf his vision, and everything around him turned into nothingness in a blink.He felt as though he was trapped in a pitch-black space surrounded by countless orbs of demonic fire forming a giant face–Elton's face.Elton's voice made Trevor feel a chill down his spine. Were there really souls and spirits in the world? Were all those legends he'd heard actually true?At this moment, a deep fear took root in Trevor's heart. He yelled loudly at the ghostly face, "Let me out… I can give you money, and I have a lot of money. Just help

    Trevor nodded repeatedly as he listened, a look of joy spreading across his face. "Mr. Reynolds, rest assured, I will carry out your instructions."An hour later, Jace and the others watched Trevor's departing figure as they exchanged knowing smiles.In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.Early that morning, Sebastian and Rosalie arrived at the CEO's office of Arctic Snow Group.According to their previous agreement with Theodore, today was the day for the official signing between Northstar Pharma and Arctic Snow Group.However, by noon, Theodore had yet to appear. There was no sign of activity from Northstar Pharma, either.Rosalie couldn't help but voice her doubts. "Sebastian, do you think Northstar Pharma might have changed their mind and decided not to sign with us?"After all, partnering with Arctic Snow Group meant offending the Bashmore Group. It was natural for the Northman family to have reservations.Sebastian shook his head slightly. "No, Theodore was very clear

    Thank you, Mr. Ballard, but the consultation fee must still be paid. I know this small amount is insignificant to you, but… It's all I have right now," Zane said with a sheepish smile. He carefully placed the check on Rosalie's desk.Sebastian didn't mind and took his Healer's Needle, giving Rosalie a few instructions before following Zane to the Northman family residence."I've long heard of your great reputation, Mr. Ballard. You truly live up to your name! You have an extraordinary presence," Zane praised continuously, elevating Sebastian throughout the journey, though Sebastian simply smiled without responding.As their car approached a secluded estate, Sebastian suddenly felt all the hairs on his body stand on end."Stop the car!" Sebastian ordered abruptly.Zane quickly instructed the driver to stop, then frowned and said, "Mr. Ballard, there's still a long way to go."Sebastian shook his head slightly. He got out of the car and began scrutinizing the estate from a distan

    "There wasn't any problem originally but with the addition of the two trees and these stone lions, this place has turned into a place like a cemetery!" Sebastian pointed out."Look carefully at this estate and the hill behind it. When connected, what does it resemble?" Sebastian gestured."A-A corpse?" Zane, prompted by Sebastian, took a closer look from a distance. When the landscape was connected, the estate resembled the head of a corpse, with the two trees and stone lions appearing like protruding fangs!The estate had effectively become a place filled with negative energy.That "corpse" was exactly where the villa stood within the estate."Plus, the two mulberry trees at the entrance. I suspect they were healthy when planted, right?" Sebastian observed.From a distance, the two mulberry trees appeared to be withering.It was evident that they were transplanted in the wrong season, which failed to take root, and the harsh winter had killed them."A few days ago, a geomanc

    Trevor huffed coldly and said, "What's the matter, Sebastian? You were a traditional medicine doctor a few days ago. Are you a geomancer now?"Did you fail to deceive everyone with your anti-cancer prescription? Is that why you're trying to deceive Zane by saying that you can check the geomantic properties of our house?" Before Sebastian could say anything, Zane hastily explained, "Trevor, sometimes it's just safer to assume that it's true. I think of it as spending some money to buy my peace of mind." Trevor scoffed. He turned and walked toward the car. As he went, he said to Zane, "I'll go and see Uncle Theodore with Mr. Reynolds first. Aunt Marianne and Aunt Meredith will be coming later too."Trevor got into the car and sped off."Have you ever met the man he was with just now?" Sebastian asked Zane as he watched the Benz drive off. "Met him? He was the one who made us plant the two old mulberry trees at our front door!" Zane looked darkly in the direction that the Benz ha

    "Oh dear. I wonder when Theodore will get better.""That's right. Seraphina, the family needs to have a leader. We have such a huge family, and we're running a big company as well. There are so many things that need to be taken care of, and someone needs to take the lead.""Why don't you and Zane recommend Trevor as the temporary chairman?""Trevor and Theodore have been taking care of Northstar Pharma for so many years. This way, we'll avoid having no one at the helm of the company while Theodore is sick. Once Theodore gets better, he can resume the position of chairman."As soon as Zane walked in, he overheard his aunts and uncle trying to persuade his mother, Seraphina. Zane clenched his teeth and strode into the living room.He said icily to his aunts, "I've already asked Mr. Ballard to come. He can even bring a late-stage cancer patient back to life. It'll be easy for him to cure Dad."Theodore had once mentioned to the Northmans that the prince of Ytalia had sent someone to

    Sebastian ignored Marianne and Meredith and looked at his watch.Ten minutes had already passed. Hadn't the Northmans' bodyguards buried the Crystal Dragons yet?At that moment, one of the bodyguards came to the living room and whispered a few words in Zane's ear before handing him something black."Mr. Ballard, look at this. They dug this out from under the foundation on the west side," Zane said quietly. He handed the black object to Sebastian.Sebastian took the object, which looked like a piece of coal. He clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Elton before saying to the room at large, "Who says that those who practice medicine can't know about geomancy?"He continued, "Traditional medicine originated from the philosophers of the Way of Wisdom. If I don't know about the mystic arts, then how can I treat patients, especially when it comes to patients with strange illnesses like Theodore?""Ballard, you're just a charlatan! Get out of here right now! You're not welcome

    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.
