When Brian stepped on the stone brick, Willow's heart was in her throat. On the other hand, Sean, who was hidden in the secret cellar, held his breath as he heard the footsteps above him. Brian frowned slightly. He knocked vigorously on the wall in front of him and realized that it was solid, not h
Sean looked grim. He had no way of ameliorating the effects of the Soultrap Poison! This was terrible!He clenched his fists tightly. Sean did not know what to do. He tried to use his vital energy to suppress the poison. However, he glumly realized that the vital energy in his lower abdomen had dri
Suddenly, there was a series of bangs. Sean was thumping wildly on the ground in the underground basement. The strong poison was making the blood vessels in his body twist together like pretzels. His blood was ricocheting and boiling, making all the veins on his body bulge. He turned a bright red
Although Sean had used the Eight Resurrection Needles and stopped the toxins from expanding willy-nilly, the previous toxins had already merged completely with his blood.He could not find a way to eliminate them from his system. If the toxins could not be cleared, the vital energy could never gathe
Sean pondered for a moment before swiftly reaching into his shirt's inner pocket to retrieve the emerald bangle.As he held it, a warmth spread through his palm and mingled with a cool sensation reminiscent of a gentle spring breeze.Sean fixed his gaze on the emerald bangle, noting its clear and tr
"It's working!" Sean exclaimed, his gaze trembling as he sat up straight.He fixed his gaze intently on the emerald bangle in his hand. He noticed that the blood touching the surface of the emerald bangle was being absorbed peculiarly.Furthermore, with every drop of blood absorbed, a faint humming
This posed a significant problem as the probability of Sean being exposed was high. As she fretted over the situation, the footsteps outside drew nearer.Powerful energies filled the air, generating an almost vacuum-like atmosphere in the courtyard where not even the rain could fall."Mrs. Lakeworth
"Quickly, hold your breaths and hide your presence!" Amelia instructed in a low voice.Everyone suppressed their breaths and hid in the bushes.In the sky, a swoosh echoed, and tracking waves radiated through the air. Upon failing to detect the presence of any vital energy, they quickly left.After
"What? Did you say that Grandma and the others are here?" Selene's heart skipped a beat."Yes! Hide yourself!" Sean said urgently.Suddenly, they heard a swoosh, and before they could move a muscle, the sounds of wind breaking resounded in the forest. The strongest presence amongst them had already
"First time?" Startled, Sean then realized what she was speaking about and chuckled awkwardly. "Yeah, it was. What's the matter?""That explains it." Selene had a confident look on her face, as if she were now sure of something. "What do you mean?" Sean asked, puzzled."That explains why there's su
"Would you like to expose Zephyr's scheme?" Sean asked in a deep voice when he saw the iciness in Selene's eyes."Yes." Selene nodded. The disgust she held for Zephyr was undisguised in her tone."The Ten Great Families are still in the dark; even if both of us combine forces, we're far from being Z

Selene moaned softly, gradually waking up.Sean took in a sharp breath and felt his scalp turning numb. This was bad! He hurriedly got up, wanting to clear up the scene.However, when he looked at the clothes strewn across the floor, he knew that it was too late to dress Selene and cover her body.
Sean's body tensed, his mind resonating with a thunderous roar.Before he could react, Selene's soft lips pressed firmly against his. Her tongue, sweet yet tentative, explored his mouth.In an instant, heat ignited within Sean like a wildfire. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he swiftly pushed
