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
Cyril waved the appraisal report in front of Sebastian and said gleefully, "Do you know that an ancient sword from the Tunger era would be enough to get you sentenced to death? "Both your relics are from the early Quorn era, which is even further back in history than the Tunger era! It would be enough to convict you to death many times over!" An excited light shone in Cyril's eyes as he spoke.With the appraisal report, he was pretty much guaranteed the position of commander. He had solved a case involving the illegal reselling of cultural relics from the early Quorn era. Even the Janover Alpha Strike Force team executives would be sure to call and compliment Cyril. His name would be recorded in the annals of history."We're not even sure who's about to die. Look at how happy you are! Anyone would think that there was something wrong with your brain just by looking at you," Sebastian said mockingly."Oh, Ballard, cut the crap. Tell me, how would you like to die?" Cyril put down
Cyril struggled to stand up. It was a pity he didn't have as much strength as the foot planted firmly on his back. After struggling a few times, he found himself pressed down hard against the floor once more."Don't struggle. It won't be of any use. If you don't give us a reasonable explanation for what happened today, I'll sentence you on the spot!" Wyatt spoke in an ice-cold, terrifying tone.Cyril broke out in a cold sweat with fear."This is all a misunderstanding! Please listen to me! Sebastian stole cultural relics, and this is a crime that merits death. "Besides, the cultural relics in his possession are national treasures from the early Quorn era! If you don't believe me, you can look at the report on the desk," Cyril hastily explained.Vince finally noticed that there was a photocopied piece of paper placed on the interrogation table. He picked it up and perused it thoroughly. The two colored photos on top were exactly the same as the objects lying on the interrogation t
Sebastian laughed in embarrassment."Take care!" Wyatt patted Sebastian's shoulder heavily.Then, he turned a cold gaze on Cyril as he said, "Young man, I hope you're not planning to settle personal debts here. I'm warning you, you wouldn't want me as your enemy."Cyril almost wet his pants with fear.Wyatt was old, but he had survived countless bloody storms during the war. He had fought his way to this point, and his manner was both righteous and intimidating. Just one look from him was enough to scare a creep like Cyril half to death. "Don't worry, Mr. Holman Senior. Before the higher-ups send someone here, I won't give Sebastian any trouble! I'll let him have his phone back too. "As long as he doesn't escape, I'll guarantee that he'll feel right at home here." As he spoke, Cyril felt his heart twisting painfully. It felt as if he were being stabbed with a hundred knives.Wyatt looked meaningfully at Vince and Larys, and they left the interrogation room, looking resigned.
However, Ryan only wanted the anti-cancer prescription and the shares in Arctic Snow Group. He didn't care about whether Sebastian lived or died."Mr. Jones, I didn't hear you wrongly, did I? Do you really have the power to get me released with no charges? I don't think that even your father would be able to say such a thing!" Sebastian's ruthless retort made Ryan's smile freeze. His lips twitched violently."How was it, Mr. Jones? What did he say?" Trevor looked nervously at Ryan."Ballard, don't be so cocky! If you agree to my requests now, you may still have a chance of surviving! If you won't cooperate, I'll still be able to find a way to get the prescription. You, on the other end, will find yourself in a worse situation," Ryan said through gritted teeth.Sebastian was looking down on Ryan! No one had ever gone against Ryan in his entire life! Who did Sebastian think he was?Ryan had only manipulated a few things and already had Sebastian backed into a corner.Sebastian wa
Blake rushed back to Ventus Estate. When Belinda saw that he had returned alone, she frowned and asked, "Why isn't Mr. Ballard with you?"Blake wiped away the sweat on his brow and said, "Madam Dragon, I made an appointment with Mr. Ballard yesterday and said that I would be there at 2:00 pm to pick him up. However, when I got there, Mr. Ballard's convenience store was closed down.""What?" Belinda's expression changed slightly. She was sure that she had not judged Sebastian wrongly. He wasn't the type of person who wouldn't keep his promises. Had something happened to him?"Madam Dragon, I've asked around, and I heard that Larys and Vince have been put in isolation for interrogation. We can't get to them at all right now.""Mr. Ballard has been taken away by the Steinberg Alpha Strike Force team. As for the reason, please forgive me, I couldn't find out at all. "However, I think that the detainment of Larys and Vince and the sudden interrogation of the two of them must have some
The men Yutaria was sending this time were probably all going to their deaths."Even so, we should help the Warrior League. If we can wipe out the Yutarian experts in the outer borders, it will also make them fear and respect Dramon."Sebastian's goal was simple. He wanted to do his best to prevent the Yutarian experts from setting foot in the three divine mountains.While it was true that no one knew what secrets the three divine mountains held, it would be a calamity for Dramon if a Yutarian Warrior got lucky and uncovered them."You're right to be concerned, my lord," Lyanna said calmly. "We can discuss it with the Warrior League once the martial arts battle is over."In her current state, she couldn't help the Warrior League. Unless her level of skill increased and she became a true king of spirits, it would be disastrous for her if she entered the divine mountains and stumbled into the formations set up by the ancient refiners.Sebastian understood Lyanna's concerns and nodd
The moment Sebastian and Lyanna arrived at the clearing, she shot toward Sebastian like a bolt of lightning.Sebastian used his Wind Phantom move to face her.A series of blasts erupted between them, and waves of energy burst forth. Even Nina felt the energy roiling inside her.In the blink of an eye, Sebastian and Lyanna had already exchanged hundreds of blows.Suddenly, Lyanna retreated to a spot more than 20 feet away and stared at Sebastian in surprise. "How could you have such a strong force of energy?" she asked in disbelief.Back then, even Otto hadn't dared to face her attacks head-on. But Sebastian had managed to withstand hundreds of them. What was more, the energy inside his body hadn't weakened in the slightest. In fact, it actually seemed to have gotten stronger.The more they fought, the stronger he became. Lyanna knew exactly what level Sebastian had been at before. He was a Cultivator in the Eldoria realm, so how could he have produced such a terrifyingly ex
"Sebastian will be okay, won't he?" Whitney asked, glancing worriedly in the direction of the backyard. Rose shook her head slightly. "Those two often have friendly sparring with Mr. Ballard. You don't need to worry."Whitney felt a little more at ease after hearing that. Rosalie, on the other hand, wasn't worried at all. Sebastian was Nina and Lyanna's master, so they would never actually hurt him.Turning to Whitney, she said, "Ms. Sutton, let's go back inside and continue our discussion about the expansion of the pharmaceutical factory."Whitney hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Okay."…When Sebastian and the others reached the grove, Nina suddenly leaped into the air, aiming a kick at Sebastian's chest.At the speed that Nina was going, Sebastian wouldn't have had time to react to her sudden attack in the past. But now, he seemed to sense Nina making her move in advance. Taking one step back, he raised his arm and lightly blocked her.Although Sebastian felt he
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
