Chapter 1281

Auteur: Wendell Mayhew
"I heard my dad talking about it. It's very reliable information," Hayden said, looking very sure of himself.

"Be quiet." A person at a neighboring table frowned at Hayden, so he had no choice but to shut up.

After Larys finished his speech, there was thunderous applause, and they moved on to making toasts.

However, these weren't just any toasts. The round table in the center had been blocked off by security, and only a few of the VIP guest tables around them were allowed to go and make toasts there.

A few people from the neighboring tables wanted to toast Dexter and Wyatt, but they were blocked by security.

Ryder had gone up with his wine glass as well, but when he was stopped by security, he had no choice but to leave with his tail between his legs.

"Only those who can go to that table to make a toast can really say they've made it!" Hayden gazed intently at the main table.

"It's just a toast, isn't it? How difficult can it be?" Jaxon pulled on his collar and walked towar

    What if Sebastian really was an important figure? Wouldn't Hayden be missing an opportunity if he accidentally offended him?"He's a traditional medicine doctor who currently runs a convenience store. He's a BIG business owner!" Jaxon cut in sarcastically before Sebastian could answer. "You run a convenience store?" Hayden scoffed. "Are you joking, pal? Do you want to go and take Mr. Compton's pulse or are you going to promote nail clippers to him?"Everyone laughed scornfully. "A mere traditional medicine doctor wants to toast the mayor? There must be something wrong with your brain!" "I think he's obsessed with currying favor with him. Doesn't he know that they're from completely different worlds?""That's right! Who is this guy? Who brought him here? He's so out of it!" The women chattered.Rosalie's face burned slightly, and she tugged on Sebastian as she said, "Watch what you're saying. We're becoming the center of attention.""I don't know what to do." Sebastian sighed.

    Jaxon felt like he had swallowed a fly. He looked extremely grim."Larys, it doesn't matter where I sit. Besides, I wouldn't know what to say to all of you." Sebastian stood up and clinked glasses with Larys. The entire table was in a daze, especially the women who had been mocking Sebastian just a while ago. They regretted it deeply. If they'd known how important Sebastian was, they would have tried harder to flatter him.Compared to the boastful Hayden and the pompous Jaxon, Sebastian was clearly a prominent figure who was keeping a very low profile. Sebastian breathed a sigh of relief when Larys returned to the main table. At least they were pretty much done with the toasts. As for Dexter and Wyatt, they were so old that he was sure they wouldn't come over to toast him.Sebastian now felt very pressured, because almost everyone was staring at him. The people at neighboring tables were already beginning to speculate about who he was."Who is that guy?" "I bet he's a wealt

    Bernard, whom Jaxon was so proud of, had bowed to Sebastian and had proposed a toast for him. However, Sebastian had been dismissive of him.Everyone at the table looked at Jaxon with both contempt and compassion.Sebastian's lips barely touched the glass before he put it back on the table. "Alright! Thank you, Mr. Ballard. I'll get going." Bernard returned to the main table. His face had turned bright red."Mr. Lark, was that your uncle?" Hayden looked sympathetically at Jaxon."Your uncle didn't seem to have any plans to drink with you.""Is he really your uncle?""Do he and your dad have the same mother?""Does he dislike you?" Everyone at the table chattered simultaneously, making Jaxon turn bright red. He hung his head, unable to say a word.He hated Sebastian with a vengeance. Without him around, he would have gotten all the glory. He felt that there was only contempt and scorn in Rosalie's eyes when she looked at him. However, just as Jaxon was feeling completely h

    Sebastian suddenly thought of someone. Rose!"Rose?" Sebastian tapped out a message quickly and sent it back, but there was no answer."Let's go home," Sebastian said to Rosalie in a low voice."Oh, okay." Rosalie put down the pastry she was holding and picked up her bag. She left the hall with Sebastian. Seeing that Sebastian had gotten into Rosalie's car, Jaxon sent another message to the bald man. His name was Willie Korne.After Rosalie's car had driven slowly out of the parking lot, Jaxon walked quickly over to his own car and caught up to her. Sebastian and Rosalie would have to pass over a stone bridge on their way back to the Moonlyte Club from the Cosmo Hotel, and the area around the bridge was practically deserted. At night, even the street lights flickered on and off. There were also very few pedestrians at night. Rosalie's car had just driven onto the bridge when a large truck drove over from the end of the bridge. It swung across the road and stopped, blocking

    Although Willie was afraid, he knew what the rules were. Even if he died, he could not betray his employer.Sebastian grinned as he looked at Willie and said, "You're pretty tough, huh? It's alright. Let me help you remember."As soon as he spoke, Sebastian kicked Willie's calf. There was a crack, and Willie screamed and fainted from the pain. Sebastian bent over and took out a silver needle, which he used to prick some of Willie's main acupuncture points. He woke up at once."Do you remember now?" Sebastian asked, smiling broadly."I… I really…" Willie only got halfway through his sentence before Sebastian's silver needle plunged into his pain acupuncture point. He felt an intense pain from deep in his bone marrow, which traveled all over his body instantly.It hurt so much that his voice changed. The more he struggled, the more it hurt, and he fainted a few more times from the pain. Sebastian roused him every single time.Willie finally understood something. The scariest th

    When Jaxon saw the murderous look in Sebastian's eyes, he couldn't help taking a few steps backward. He suddenly slipped and fell down next to the sedan. He felt something sticky under his fingers.Jaxon looked down at his hand instinctively and realized that it was covered in blood. He turned white with fear."I'm sure you were framed, Mr. Lark. How would someone like you know people like them?" Sebastian said, chuckling."That's right! You're right, Mr. Ballard! I really don't know him." Jaxon grimaced. "How about we call the police to arrest him and clear your name, Mr. Lark?" Sebastian asked, smiling."No, no! I don't think we need to do that. After all, you weren't hurt. Arresting people like them wouldn't achieve anything. They'll only try to get revenge in future," Jaxon said quickly. He didn't want Willie to be arrested. If Willie gave him up, he would be ruined."Alright. I'll take your advice, Mr. Lark. However, please take care of things here and move the truck in f

    Although Rose tried her best to dodge, one of the black-clad men still hit her in the back, and she spat out a mouthful of blood."Kill them!" Rose pulled out a three-foot-long sword from around her waist and tossed a knife to Sebastian.What every woman cared the most about was their appearance, even if they were an assassin.The scratch on her face had incensed Rose. Sebastian caught the knife and immediately became even more dangerous. The black-clad men saw that they were at a disadvantage. One of them suddenly pulled out a bow from behind him and shot several arrows at Sebastian and Rose. Sebastian and Rose dodged quickly, and the black-clad men grabbed the opportunity. They turned and disappeared into the night."Gavin!" Sebastian rushed over to Gavin and saw that the latter was unconscious. He examined him quickly and saw that he only had broken two ribs. He had no serious internal injuries.Reassured, Sebastian picked him up and walked over to Rosalie's sedan.Rose f

    Rosalie sighed deeply and backed slowly out of the room.In the current circumstances, there wasn't much she could do to help. It would be better to let Sebastian take care of the issue in a calm manner. Sebastian stared at Rose on the bed, feeling troubled.It wasn't that he did not have a solution. It was just that if he wanted to save Rose, he would have to take off all her clothes. Otherwise, he would not be able to force the poison out, which meant that she would certainly die.Sebastian reached out a few times to tear her clothes off but shrank back. After all, Rose was around his age. Even if he wanted to save her, he needed her consent. Rose spat out another mouthful of dark blood, and she turned even paler. Her lips were going from dark purple to black.Sebastian saw that she was about to die, and he reached out to tear off her clothes. There was a bloody imprint on her snow-white back.He bent down without thinking and began sucking at her wound. With every mouthful

    Whitney perked up at Sebastian's question. "It's all because you ran into the two monsters that day," she said. "I saw it on the surveillance footage. That was when I realized that the two women living in the store don't have that kind of relationship with you…"Whitney had never asked, and Sebastian hadn't bothered to explain who Nina and Lyanna were. That was why she had mistakenly thought that both of them were Sebastian's lovers as well.Realization had only dawned on her when she heard Nina address Sebastian as her master, even in her dying breath. Whitney had seen how powerful Nina was that day and how she had been willing to die in order to protect Sebastian.Nina and Lyanna weren't Sebastian's lovers. They were his servants. Not only that, Nina was a thousand-year-old giant snake!That had completely changed Whitney's view of the world. Although there had always been legends of mystical beings and ghosts, Whitney was an accomplished businesswoman who believed firmly in sc

    Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head. "I'm not from the Ballard Estate," he said. "My name is Sebastian, and it's better if my cousin weren't seen around me too much.""Oh, you're Sebastian."The two young women breathed a long sigh of relief. They looked him up and down for a long time before exchanging a glance. Then, they covered their faces and giggled.One of them stepped forward and said, "Come with me. Honestly… you seem pretty normal. I don't get why Ms. Sutton is yearning for you so much."Sebastian cleared his throat awkwardly and said nothing.The young woman led Sebastian into the house, where Whitney was sitting and reading a book intently. She said, "Ms. Sutton, look who's here."Whitney put down her book and looked up. When she saw Sebastian behind the young woman, she was both surprised and delighted. She got up and threw herself into Sebastian's arms."Sebastian, is it really you?"The young woman covered her face and chuckled before leaving the room sile

    Sebastian watched Andreas leave and exhaled deeply. Preston wasn't the only one he didn't trust. No one in the Ballard Estate was worthy of his trust, including Andreas.Once Andreas had completely disappeared, Sebastian beckoned to the woods in the distance and said, "Come out!"In a flash, Duo appeared at his side. "My lord, why didn't you wipe out those people in the hall today?" he asked.Duo clenched his fists tightly, and there was a murderous look simmering in his eyes. Although he hadn't been in the hall, he had clearly heard everything the Ballards had said.Anyone who disrespected his master deserved death!Besides, neither Sebastian nor Duo would have had to lift a finger to kill them. All they had to do was to crush the Tribulation Avoidance Charm and trigger the divine tribulation. Once it descended, no one in the hall would have lived to tell the tale, including Arnaud."If we become hostile with the Ballards, it'll be almost impossible for us to leave in peace. Now

    "It all comes back to Uncle Samson," Andreas said. "Great Uncle Arnaud already told you he'd let Uncle Samson have his freedom if you find the other emerald token, but then he brought up the marriage alliance. "It directly affects whether or not Uncle Samson can regain his freedom. So, why don't you think about it?"With a quiet chuckle, Andreas walked toward a grove of peach trees to the west.Realization finally dawned on Sebastian. Arnaud was a shrewd man. He wouldn't slip up like that. Besides, although the Ballards and the Yeomans had established a marriage agreement, they hadn't named specific individuals, only that the Blessed Child of the Ballards would fulfill it.The Blessed Child bore the duty of guiding the Ballards to revival. In other words, the emerald token would be better off falling into the Blessed Child's hands rather than anyone else's.Could it be that the final emerald token was with the Yeomans? If that were true, why hadn't the Ballards used their pow

    "I'm sorry, but I have no interest in becoming the head of the Ballard family," Sebastian said impassively. "I only want my father to be freed."Arnaud's expression changed slightly, but his tone remained neutral as he said, "It's Braxton who owes you and your mother, not the entire family. Why must you do this?"Sebastian let out a cold snort. It was true that Braxton had been the one who had kicked them out, but weren't the true culprits the elders of the Ballard Estate?"If there's nothing else, I'd like to see Whitney," Sebastian said, rising slowly to his feet. As soon as he mentioned her name, Arnaud waved a hand at him and said, "Don't be in such a rush, Sebastian. Whitney is safe. The Ballards would never harm a frail woman."He added, "However, there's something I want to ask you. Is Whitney still your wife?"Sebastian frowned. "Whether she is or isn't, what business is that of the Ballards?""Of course it is," Arnaud replied firmly. "The Ballards and the Yeomans of

    Arnaud led Sebastian into a secret room deep within the Hall of the Ancestral Dragon. Once inside, Sebastian saw a Cosmic Orbit Diagram. It was exactly the same as the records in the Sacred Medicine Secret Annals.However, the Ballards' Cosmic Orbit Diagram was divided into different sections. It looked even more three-dimensional."This is the Cosmic Orbit Diagram passed down through our family for generations," Arnaud said proudly. "The one that the Sacred Medicine Society has is just a copy."The legacy of the mystic arts in Dramon almost all came from the Ballards.The Ballards had withheld some things back then as well. As a result, all the legacies of the various secular sects only had incomplete Cosmic Orbit Diagrams. It was why there were very few experts at the fifth level of the Eldoria realm and above.Afterward, Arnaud led Sebastian into a library. Thousands of technical legacies lined the shelves. Sebastian flipped through them. The techniques recorded there were

    Samson glanced at Sebastian. He took a deep breath and said to Arnaud, "Thank you for sparing me, Uncle Arnaud."He gave Sebastian a few final reminders before leaving the hall with Preston.Once they were gone, Arnaud pointed at Duo and said to Sebastian, "Tell him to leave too."Sebastian waved a hand at Duo."I'll wait for you at the entrance, my lord," Duo said. "If anything happens, I'll be here as soon as you call!"He gave Arnaud a cold look before striding out of the hall.Arnaud watched him leave and smiled approvingly. He beckoned to Sebastian. "Come, sit!"Sebastian didn't hesitate. He crossed the hall and sat in the chair opposite Arnaud."Do you know why I asked Andreas to bring you back here?" Arnaud asked impassively. Sebastian shook his head expressionlessly. He said in a cold voice, "It's probably because of the emerald token in my father's possession."Apart from using him and Whitney as leverage against Samson, he couldn't think of any other reason.Arnau

    "The Blessed Child! The Blessed Child has finally come to our family!"The black-robed old man who had been sitting beside Arnaud stood up, looking pleased. He couldn't hide his excitement as he turned to Arnaud and said, "Arnaud, our family is going to prosper!"Only Rexton and Milton looked extremely displeased. Braxton and Roland looked pained, as if they had lost something of great value. They were practically thumping their chests in regret!The Blessed Child had been foretold by one of the heads of the family centuries ago. No matter how far the Ballards declined, the prophecy said that after a few hundred years, a Blessed Child would appear—someone who could lead the family's revival!The only proof of the Blessed Child was for him to enter a master-servant oath with a Devora."Prosper? What a joke!" Hugo scoffed, holding Virtus firmly. "Weren't you all just clamoring about killing the two of them?"At Hugo's words, Arnaud's expression changed slightly. "When did I say tha

    "Hugo!"Arnaud, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them wide. He eyed Hugo with a conflicted expression as he asked, "Have you forgotten the agreement the Thornes made with us ten years ago?"Hugo smiled coldly and put one hand behind his back. "That was the agreement you made with the Thornes. I'm only following Ms. Thorne's orders to protect Samson and find the emerald token. If Samson dies in this battle, how am I supposed to explain that to her?"He pointed at Sebastian and added, "He's Ms. Thorne's flesh and blood. Your family has no right to punish him! If the Ballards insist on killing them today, don't blame me for going on a killing spree!"When Hugo had finished, Sebastian finally realized that Hugo was from Isabella's family and that he had stayed at the Ballard Estate to protect Samson.It was clear that Isabella hadn't held a grudge toward Samson. In fact, she had sent an expert to stay behind to protect him in case anything happened.Arnaud's
