After a while, a maid carried a tea table over to Sebastian and began to make tea for him. The tea leaves that she used were the ones that Sebastian had liked the most after tasting them.The Lucoxes were one of the Eight Great Families, and it was evident in their every action. Even having tea was such a complicated process. Wouldn't it have been easier just to ask Sebastian what kind of tea he liked?After about ten minutes, Lilian brought a young woman into the living room. She was wearing a white dress.The young woman was as beautiful as a fairy. She had eyes that shone luminously like the moon, and straight, white teeth. Her rosy lips pressed gently together under her perfect nose. However, she was rather pale.She looked almost identical to Cecilia, the young woman who had been at the auction. The only difference was that she seemed more frail."Elara, say hello to Mr. Ballard."The young woman nodded at Belinda and turned to Sebastian. She bowed slightly and said, "Hell
"Well…" Sebastian hesitated and said, "It will need acupuncture for it to be effective."Derek raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Ballard, although we're now in modern times, you… you can't give acupuncture treatment to Ms. Elara while she's bathing!"Sebastian smiled wryly and said, "That is what troubles me, Mr. Chesterton. If we don't give both the medicine and the acupuncture treatment at the same time, I'm afraid that it won't be effective. However, I am a man, after all. It won't be convenient to treat Ms. Elara while she's bathing. I—""What do you think, Elara?" Belinda looked calmly at Elara."We must not hide an illness for fear of treatment," Elara said without hesitating. Sebastian's jaw dropped.Belinda nodded and said to a maid, "Go and make the preparations."Very soon, the wooden tub needed for the medicinal bath was prepared. Elara and Sebastian went to a small house with a courtyard that was behind the loft. They were accompanied by two maids."Mr. Ballard, h
Elara was already engaged, and Belinda was fairly satisfied with her future son-in-law. Elara, however, was not as keen. Despite this, Belinda could not allow Sebastian to take advantage of her daughter.Sebastian exhaled slightly once the acupuncture treatment was done. Elara had perfect skin and a perfect figure, too.Her skin was fair and very soft. "Mr. Ballard, your skills in medicine are amazing," Elara said as she put her clothes back on.She had never expected Sebastian to keep his back turned to her for the entire treatment while still maintaining perfect accuracy with every needle he used. He had skills that even the oldest and most experienced traditional medicine doctors would admire. "You're too kind, Ms. Elara. The ice venom in your body is too strong. You must not activate your vital energy for the next few days. Otherwise, the ice venom will move along your meridians, and today's treatment will be wasted," Sebastian said calmly.Elara nodded slightly. She had
Blake quickly took the wooden box from Belinda and handed it to Sebastian.Sebastian took it with both hands. The moment he received it, his head whipped up in shock, and he stared at Belinda.The item in the wooden box weighed more than 20 pounds, but Belinda had held it in one hand as if it were nothing.Belinda's powers were probably greater than that of a Supreme Grandmaster. She might even be an expert in the Celestial stage."What's the matter?" Belinda asked, smiling when she saw Sebastian staring at her in shock."You are very skilled, Madam Dragon," Sebastian praised her sincerely. He took the wooden box and placed it on the coffee table beside him."Mr. Ballard, the box contains a belt. You can open it and have a look. There's a soft sword contained in the belt. Perhaps you can use it for defending yourself," Belinda said, smiling.Sebastian opened the wooden box and saw a purple and gold belt made of pure steel. Between the buckles, there was a long sword several feet
Janet was full of delight as she spoke.No wonder Mike had told her to latch on to Sebastian as tightly as she could. Now that she thought about it, Mike had really thought things through. After all, those in high positions were much more likely to care about their health. Sebastian's amazing medical skills were exactly what they needed!The saying went that as long as one person prospered, it would benefit everyone in their vicinity. Although Janet was just Sebastian's maid, she was sure that the Connollys' status in Steinberg would be elevated in future as well by association with Sebastian.Sebastian only smiled impassively and waved a hand, saying, "Alright, it's getting late. Let's all get some rest."Janet assented and ran quickly to the inner rooms to lay out Sebastian's bed for him. She was now determined to serve Sebastian well.As the lights in the convenience store were turned off, a paper crane flew into the air from under a streetlight. It looked rather eerie.A
In the living room of a detached villa in the suburbs of Sunway, a handsome young man in a branded suit smashed an empty wine bottle on the floor. As the wine bottle shattered, the maids and bodyguards around him lowered their heads in fear. They didn't even dare to breathe."Hmph! That bitch, Rosalie! I can't believe that she would rather be with that country bumpkin and get kicked out by the Griffins! What does that Ballard fellow have that I don't?" Ryan shouted angrily as he popped open another bottle of red wine and threw his head back to gulp it down.Bright red wine slid out of the corner of his mouth and dripped onto his snow-white shirt. Then, he slammed the wine bottle down on the table and stared at the people around him with blood-red eyes. "Get lost! Get out right now!"The bodyguards and maids hastily rushed out of the living room. Only the old man sitting on the sofa opposite Ryan remained, looking calmly at Ryan.The old man was a retainer of the Joneses. His name
"Ms. Griffin already has someone on her mind. I'm afraid that she's way out of my league." Ryan was Hugh's oldest son and the second most powerful man in the state capital. However, he was self-aware and knew that if the Beckards hadn't managed to get Rosalie to marry into their family, he would have even less of a chance. He didn't want to end up like Stephen."What if I were to tell you that I could help you get rid of Ballard?" Jace asked calmly.What?A flicker of hope sparked in Ryan's eyes, which had been dull and lifeless a moment before. "Are you serious, Mr. Beckard?" Jace laughed coldly and said, "Of course. Not only that, neither of us will have to lift a finger."Jace told Ryan about Sebastian's recent acquisition of two valuable treasures. However, he omitted the fact that Belinda had personally given them to Sebastian as a gift.A sinister smile appeared on Ryan's face after he heard about what had happened. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Ballard really is rec
Rosalie watched Sebastian get taken away by Cyril and his men. She said anxiously to Janet, "Let's go to the sanatorium together! Mr. Holman Senior should be able to help.""Didn't my lord say that we shouldn't ask Mr. Holman Senior for help?" Janet asked in confusion."No! As soon as Sebastian gets captured by the Alpha Strike Force team, he'll be in great danger. They can use their connections, but so can we."Rosalie knew very well that the Alpha Strike Force team was extremely influential. Therefore, she packed quickly and pulled down the metal roll-up door of the convenience store. She took Janet with her to the sanatorium.…Meanwhile, in a villa in Sunway, a middle-aged man in a suit put his phone down gleefully.He turned and said to Ryan, "Mr. Ryan, it's done. The Alpha Strike Force team in Steinberg have already captured Sebastian. They're on their way back to the base."Ryan looked triumphant as he grinned and said, "Okay, good work! This time, we must drive Sebastian
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
