"Madam Dragon, the Beckards…" Blake's expression was a sight to behold. About ten days ago, Stephen had been beaten up so badly that he was now a cripple. From what the Beckards had said, Sebastian was probably the culprit. Otherwise, the Beckards wouldn't have sent someone to come all the way to Steinberg to deal with Sebastian.However, Belinda didn't even bother to ask about it. She had just stood up for Sebastian at once. She had never done something like that before!"If they dare to disobey, their entire family will be destroyed!" Belinda spoke shortly but very authoritatively.Trevor's mind went blank at once.When it really came down to it, if it hadn't been for the fact that they were on the Northmans' territory, the Northmans would not even dare to offend someone like Jace!However, the beautiful middle-aged woman standing before him had completely disregarded the Beckards! What kind of entity had Trevor offended?When he thought of the fact that Jace would very lik
Sebastian would not show any mercy to people like Francis.Besides, he already had such a deep feud with the Beckards. Since they were unable to resolve it, they might as well just fight to the death."Don't be impulsive, Mr. Ballard. Remember what I said just now. You have to make the elite unable to lift their heads in front of you. They're your target, not their lapdogs," Belinda said. She took out her phone and made the call right in front of Francis.Kendrick answered. He was the head of the Beckard family."Madam Dragon, it's a rare pleasure to get to speak to you on the phone!" Kendrick's respectful voice came from the other end."The dogs of your family are getting ready to bite. So, Mr. Beckard, tell us what your choice is. Would you rather settle things calmly, or do you want to perish together?" Belinda's tone was as cold as ice. There seemed to be a murderous edge to every word she said."Oh? Why do you say that, Madam Dragon? None of my men would ever dare to treat y
Ryan would remember that scene for the rest of his life. One phone call from Belinda had been all it took, and Francis had had to shoot himself. He had been the captain of the state capital Alpha Strike Force special forces team, and the Beckards had put in a lot of effort to train him.However, Belinda talked and laughed with Sebastian as if they were long-lost friends. Just what kind of person had Ryan offended?The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. He had even forgotten about how painful his broken leg was.Hugh looked at Shawn, who was lying in a pool of blood. He spat out a mouthful of bile. "What should we do, Mr. Jones? What should we do?" Cyril scrambled over to Hugh and knelt on the floor, sobbing."The Beckards and the Northmans almost got me killed!" Hugh pulled himself together and picked up his son, whose leg was broken. He said to Cyril, "If you don't want to die, use your brain!"He strode out of the interrogation room without looking back.
"Grandpa, I—""That's enough. Remember what I say. If you dare provoke the Lucoxes again, you can take full responsibility for it. Don't drag the family down with you!" Clayton cut off Jace's protests and hung up right after that.The handsome man sitting opposite Jace watched as he sat there in a daze, still holding his phone up to his ear. He frowned and asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Beckard? It's not going to affect our plan, is it?"Jace shook his head vigorously, as if he had just woken abruptly from a dream. He looked rather awkward as he laughed and said, "N-Nothing."Although he was acting as if nothing was wrong, he was inwardly worried.Belinda had probably found out about everything! Jace knew very well that Belinda had given Sebastian the two sacred weapons, but he had still laid a trap for Sebastian in secret. It had been a reckless move!Luckily, Belinda hadn't come straight to him. Otherwise, he might not even be able to leave Steinberg alive."Mr. Beckard, why
"Since you've come back to your hometown in glory, you'll need a good car to keep up appearances," Jace said.He added, "I'll also move Brandon back to Steinberg. He'll be managing the affairs of Bashmore Group in Steinberg. He'll introduce a skilled expert to you to be your personal bodyguard. "If anything unexpected happens, he'll be able to protect you. He can deal with anything, from an average thug to a famous assassin." The expert Jace was referring to was Elton.Jace wasn't about to give up on Elton so easily. If he could let Elton stay with Ryder, he could protect the latter's safety while also being able to kill him at any time!As for Brandon, he had also once been classmates with Ryder and Jace. After returning to the country, he started working for Jace, and he was extremely loyal.Jace was planning to leave him in Steinberg to help Ryder, but also as a precaution.Jace and Ryder continued their discussions for a while until Jace finally clapped a few times. Befo
When Whitney heard what Crystal had said, she suddenly stopped and turned back to her, saying, "For my own good?"Don't you know that Sebastian secretly solved every challenge Frostwave Corporation has met over the past few years? Fergus, whom you think so highly of, was just coveting the Sutton family fortune!"Not only that, Mabel was bribed by Fergus to change the medicine that Sebastian left for me. The two of them almost killed me twice."Even the kidnapping that happened a few days ago was related to Fergus. If he hadn't given my phone number to the people who belong to the Killers, would I have been deceived into going to Westfore Street?"Is that how you do things for my good?" Whitney's words seemed to pierce Crystal's heart like a sharp sword. If she hadn't said it herself, Crystal would never have believed, even in her wildest dreams, that Fergus was such a despicable person.She would never have believed that Fergus and Mabel would almost kill Whitney.Whitney was t
"It costs less than 30 million. It can't compare to my love for you, Grandma!" Ryder said, smiling.Everyone took in a sharp breath. If he could afford to give a gift that cost so much, Ryder must really have made his fortune overseas!"Good, good. My grandson is someone who really shows his gratitude and love. Come in and let me look at you properly!"With her left hand now adorned with the bracelet, Edna reached out to take Ryder's hand to walk inside. Ryder smiled and stopped her. "Grandma, wait. Let me introduce you to these esteemed guests!" He turned and pointed at the two young men behind him. "This is Brandon Cullen, the person in charge of the Steinberg branch for Bashmore Group. And this is Jayden Stallone, the heir of the Stallones. He's from the most prestigious family in Sunway."Brandon alone would be enough to astonish Edna. She would never have expected the heir of the Sunway Stallones to come to Sutton Manor. She stood there in shock, unsure of what to say.Th
"Grandma, is this Whitney?" Ryder asked, looking Whitney up and down.Edna nodded and said to Whitney, "Whitney, come and meet your cousin. Greet him properly."Edna showed off the diamond bracelet on her wrist as she spoke, looking proud. For the past three years, Frostwave Corporation's business had improved under the management of Sebastian and Whitney, but they had never bought Edna such an expensive gift.It was clearly a rebuke on Edna's part, as well as a challenge for Whitney.Before Ryder's return to the Suttons, Whitney had been their only hope. Now, things were different. Ryder was a star in the business world, and his connections were far better than Whitney's. Edna was no longer bothering to hide the fact that she preferred to have a male in charge."My cousin?" Whitney said lightly as she looked at Ryder with cold, impassive eyes. She asked, "Grandma, why don't I remember having a cousin?"Edna's expression turned dark at once. She said reproachfully, "Whitney,
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
