Chapter 129

Author: Wendell Mayhew
When Sebastian saw this, he said impassively, "Please get up, Mr. Tuffin. Have some tea. It's calming."

Howard got up when he heard this. He picked up the teacup from the table and downed it in one gulp.

Once he'd had the cup of tea, the hot sensation and nervousness he'd been feeling disappeared at once.

Then Sebastian took out the protective charm he'd drawn and handed it to Howard. He said, "Keep this protective charm with you at all times. It'll keep you safe."

"Protective charm? Is it useful?" Howard took the protective charm, his expression changing.

Sebastian explained, "If you trust me, Mr. Tuffin, then take it with you wherever you go. If you don't believe me, then take this brocade box back."

When he heard this, Howard hurriedly smiled humbly and said, "Of course I believe you, Dr. Ballard! I'll get going, then."

Sebastian nodded and watched Howard leave. Then he said, "Mr. Tuffin, for the next few days, you'd better stay in Steinberg. Your ophryon is looking rather d

    Sebastian hurried to the bathroom to take a shower. Then he walked out and opened the door to the shop to take a deep breath of the fresh air outside.It felt amazing!"My mentor left a lot of ancient medical practices, ancient medical prescriptions, ancient mystic arts, and rare books of martial arts. I can try learning them now," Sebastian thought to himself. Suddenly, his phone rang.He looked at it and saw that Hans was calling."Dr. Ballard, do you have time today? Can you take a look at my wife?" Hans asked respectfully.Sebastian smiled lightly. "Yes.""That's great. I'll come and pick you up right now," Hans said excitedly.Sebastian replied, "Okay."After 20 minutes, Hans drove up in his Range Rover and picked Sebastian up.When they reached Hans' villa, Sebastian got out, and his brow furrowed at once. The villa was covered in a gray layer of cursed energy. "What's the matter, Dr. Ballard?" Hans asked nervously when he saw Sebastian standing there without movin

    "Dr. Ballard, what do you want these for? Can they be used for treatment?" Hans asked doubtfully. Sebastian nodded and said, "Mr. Wagner, your wife isn't sick. The problem is your villa.""Villa? What do you mean?" Hans was even more confused. Sebastian explained, "When I was outside, I realized that the geomantic location of your villa isn't very good. There's also a thin layer of cursed energy enveloping it."The cursed energy is strongest in your wife's bedroom! This energy has strongly affected your wife's health, and there's a gray cast on the area under her eyes. That's why you haven't had children for so many years."Look, it's noon right now, and sunshine is coming straight into the bedroom, but it doesn't feel warm at all. It even feels kind of chilly."He asked, "Mr. Wagner, didn't you find it strange after so many years?"Hans was startled. He was a little tongue-tied as he said, "Well… to be honest, Dr. Ballard, I did consult an expert to check this out. He said th

    Hans was speechless with shock. He held Amaryllis tightly, trembling all over. How terrifying!Sebastian calmly picked the copper coins up from the floor. He glanced at them, then turned to Hans and Amaryllis. "Everything's fine now," he said. "The cursed energy has dissipated, and the infant spirit that was haunting your villa is gone."Sebastian looked at Amaryllis. As he had expected, her complexion was becoming rosier.Additionally, the grayish tinge on the area underneath her eyes was slowly fading. The room was becoming warmer as well. He could feel warmth spreading through his body. Hans fell to his knees with a loud thump. He prostrated on the ground and said, "Dr. Ballard, you're amazing. You really are an expert! You've opened my eyes today! "I always used to hear about experts in the world, but I've never seen one until today. Please accept this gesture of gratitude!" He bowed deeply. Hans was not very educated. He could only express his gratitude and strong emo

    Theresa huffed coldly when she heard him. Then, she turned and got into her car. Before she drove away, she glared at Sebastian and said threateningly, "You'd better think about it carefully. These are very precious opportunities. You had three chances, but now, you only have two left."Sebastian raised an eyebrow and laughed. "Ms. Livington, please stop being so high and mighty. I don't need to beg anyone for anything!"With that, he turned and walked toward the restaurant. Theresa's expression darkened at once. She glared viciously at Sebastian's retreating figure, and her lips curled in disdain. "Pride goes before a fall. Anyone can talk big. I hope that you won't come begging when the time comes!" Theresa stepped on the gas pedal, and with a roar, her sports car shot forward like lightning. A few minutes later, Theresa walked out of the parking lot. She was on the phone. "Don't worry, Whit. I'll make sure that we get the Prosperity Corporation project. I just heard fr

    Hans was waiting respectfully for Sebastian inside. When he saw the door open, he hurriedly got up with a smile. "Mr. Ba—"However, what he saw instead was a tall, gorgeous woman who gave off a cold, elegant air. She was a complete stranger to him."Are you in the wrong room, miss?" Hans asked politely. Theresa smiled and stepped forward. She said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Wagner. My name is Theresa Livington. I'm here as a representative of Frostwave Corporation to discuss a project collaboration with you." Immediately, Hans' expression changed. He sat back down and said, frowning, "Frostwave Corporation? A collaboration with me? How did you find this place?""I have my ways." Theresa smiled and continued, "We haven't collaborated yet, but I believe that we will be collaborating soon."Hans glanced at the door to the room and said coldly, "Ms. Livington, right? I'm sorry, I'm here to entertain an important guest today. If it's about a project collaboration, you may contact t

    Sebastian?How could it be him?Was he Hans' important guest?What kind of plot twist was this?"Sebastian, what are you doing here?" Theresa stood up. Surprise was written all over her pretty features. Sebastian glanced indifferently at Theresa. He laughed and said, "Is there a problem?"Hans realized that Theresa and Sebastian knew each other, so he quickly suppressed his anger. He asked doubtfully, "Dr. Ballard, do you know her?"Sebastian nodded and said, "I do know her, but we're not close."These words made Theresa's expression change. However, she thought for a moment and said immediately, "What do you mean? I'm your wife's best friend!"With that, she boldly sat down. Sebastian's expression changed seeing Theresa sit down. "She's my ex-wife now," he reminded her.Theresa rolled her eyes at him and huffed coldly. She looked at Hans, smiled, and said, "Mr. Wagner, please consider the project I mentioned earlier." Hans raised his eyebrows slightly. He glanced at Seb

    Wasn't that what a con man would do?Theresa hurriedly called Whitney back. With her brow furrowed, she asked, "Whit, does Sebastian perform superstitions like exorcism?"Whitney was taken aback by the question. She gave it some thought and said, "He can do a bit, I think. He's been obsessed with geomancy for the past two years. That little shop of his was set up so he could tell people's fortunes and help them to change their fortunes through geomancy."She added, "That's why I decided to divorce him. After he became obsessed with that stuff, he changed completely. Why? What did you find out?"Theresa's expression gradually became colder when she heard Whitney's explanation. She said, "I found out that Sebastian cured Mr. Wagner's wife's infertility. However, he did so by doing an exorcism, which is just some superstition…""Exorcism?" Whitney was shocked.She gritted her teeth in anger. "That asshole! How could he trick people that way? If he's discovered, Mr. Wagner will kill

    Sebastian frowned.He didn't want to get involved in these conflicts. That would just bring him unwanted trouble.Hans noticed that Sebastian was hesitating, and he became anxious. He fell to his knees at once and groveled at Sebastian's feet. He pleaded, "Dr. Ballard, please help me just this once! In the future, Prosperity Corporation and I will obey your every command." Resigned, Sebastian sighed and said, "Fine. I'll help you just this once. However, I need you to do something for me too."Hans was delighted. He said excitedly, "Dr. Ballard, just say the word! I'll get it done even if I have to go to hell and back!"Sebastian nodded. He smiled calmly and said, "I need you to find something for me, Mr. Wagner.""What is it?" Hans asked.Sebastian told him.Hans was shocked, and he looked doubtful as he asked, "Spiritual stones? What are they? An emerald?"Sebastian shook his head. "It's not an emerald. It's a kind of… just think of it as a medicinal stone. "It's green

    "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

    Sebastian threw his head back in laughter. He strode forward, standing in the center of the hall, and said coldly. "Ungrateful? How could you have the audacity to say such a thing?"Even if I'm surrounded by enemies, you Ballards can forget about making me submit! It's just death, after all. If I even blink, then I won't call myself a man!"Everyone there stared at Sebastian."How dare that brat be so cocky? If he's not punished, it'll be a disgrace to our family rules!""He should be given the death penalty!""It'll be a disaster if we just let him be, and it'll only bring trouble for our family. Please give the order, and we'll kill him at once!"The entire hall was in an uproar. Even Preston, who had been speaking up for Sebastian and Samson, sighed in resignation.Since Sebastian had already made his stance clear, Preston couldn't help even if he wanted to.Sebastian had roused the anger of everyone there, and Arnaud had closed his eyes and wasn't saying anything. He was cl

    Sebastian was just about to step forward when Samson hastily waved a hand at him and said, "Sebastian, the grudges of the Ballard family from over ten years ago have nothing to do with you. Don't get involved!""But—"Sebastian's gaze sharpened as he turned to look at Milton. There was an icy glint in his eyes. Samson shook his head slightly at Sebastian. The Ballard Estate had at least ten experts at the eighth level of the Eldoria realm. At Sebastian's current level, trying to fight them would only bring him big trouble."Sebastian, one must learn how to adapt to the situation," Samson whispered into his ear using voice projection. "Today, I will exchange my legs for your and Whitney's freedom. Think of it as a payment for what I owe you and your mother."Sebastian clenched his fists tightly. He hated himself for being too weak. He couldn't even protect his own family in a place like the Ballard Estate, where many experts were gathered.However, he would never allow anyone to

    "Do you accept it, Samson?" Arnaud asked harshly when he saw that Preston hadn't said anything else. He turned to look directly at Samson.Samson smiled bitterly and turned to look at Sebastian before raising his head to look at Arnaud, who was sitting high above them. He said, "Uncle Arnaud, I was the reason for everything that happened. I wish to ask you not to trouble Sebastian.""What are you talking about?" Preston was agitated. He stood up again and yelled, "There must still be an investigation about who was right and who was wrong. Why should they break your legs?"As he spoke, his eyes blazed with fury. He looked at the thin old man and said furiously, "Milton, you old bastard! How can you be so shameless at your age? Tell me! Did you embellish the story to Arnaud?""Uncle Preston!" Samson stopped him quickly and sighed slightly. "Forget it. It's my fault for bringing such huge trouble upon our family back then."I admit that I have let our family down. Since imprisoning m
