Chapter 1397

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Liam sneered and clasped his hands behind his back. He stepped forward in his shiny military boots and said, "Do you think you're tough because you're holding a gun?

"I'm not sure whether you'll have the guts to shoot or not, but my special forces team members aren't going to give you the chance to pull the trigger.

"I'm going to count to three. Put down your gun, or your family will be getting death notices tomorrow morning!"

As soon as Liam finished, over a dozen guns were trained on Cody and Knox.

"Colonel Holman, you must know that I don't just represent the state," Cody said through gritted teeth.

Liam scoffed and said, "I know whose dogs you are. But even that dog Hunter wouldn't dare to try and act tough in front of me!" He slapped Cody in the face.

"You—"

"Forget it, Cody. This is beyond the two of us. We'd better go and report this to Chief Galledin as soon as we can," Knox said in a low voice as he tugged at Cody's clothes.

At Knox's reminder, Cody realized how seri

    When Ivan heard the news, he had no choice but to suppress his rage.He knew that Vince was opposing him on purpose, but he could only compromise and revoke Sebastian's arrest warrant in the state department as well. Vince had already set up a special team to put on the case. He was going to investigate it thoroughly and clear Sebastian's name. Ned was in charge of the team. Sebastian nodded slightly, but he couldn't help feeling amused. Shane had almost killed him. Even he couldn't understand when he had offended Shane."Does that mean I'm free now?" Sebastian asked, smiling."Yes. You're innocent, Mr. Ballard, so we must clear your name," Ned said. He started the engine of the police car and headed straight back to Steinberg's city area."Seb, I feel like there's something strange about all this. Even if Shane wanted to get you in trouble, he isn't powerful enough to use someone as important as Ivan. "Although the Winters do have some dealings with the martial arts sects, t

    Early the next morning, Sebastian rushed over to the traditional medicine consultation department at St. James Hospital as usual.The moment he entered, he saw Zane teaching Bailey and Madeline how to brew medicine.Sebastian knew exactly what Zane was up to.Over the past few days, Sebastian had been taking turns with Jonah, Henrietta, and Aaron to do consultations at St. James Hospital. As a result, almost all the patients in Steinberg had flocked to them.Even the citizens of neighboring cities had heard about them and traveled to see them.They had to give out hundreds of prescriptions every day.St. James Hospital didn't have enough staff on hand to help with brewing the medicine, so Zane had volunteered to come and help. If he could teach the foreigners how to do it, Zane would be able to laze off a bit. "Mr. Ballard! Is this the right way to brew medicine?" Bailey earnestly asked Sebastian, carrying a clay pot toward him. "Yes. You've just added a bit too much water.

    Sebastian was startled.River Corporation wasn't just famous in the state; it was renowned in the whole of Dramon, and it had a very good reputation in the industry.Sebastian looked at Norman and knew at once that he wasn't an ordinary man.Even in every breath he took, Sebastian could sense the unique energy that only experts at the most advanced Supreme Grandmaster level possessed."Hello, Mr. Nichols Senior." Sebastian bowed very politely to Norman."You must be Dr. Ballard! Oliver has mentioned you to me before. I didn't expect you to be so young and accomplished." Norman nodded admiringly. "I only know a little about medicine. I wouldn't say that I'm a miracle doctor. Just call me Sebastian," he said modestly."Well, Sebastian, you are much too modest. I'd like you to have a look at me later," Norman said, smiling.Sebastian nodded slightly. Actually, the moment he had entered the room, he had sensed an evil energy from Norman.Although Norman looked energetic on the ou

    The middle-aged man was Norman's oldest son, Cornelius Nichols. He was also the future head of the Nichols family.Although Oliver and his family had nothing but praise for Sebastian, Cornelius didn't think that a traditional medicine doctor in his 20s would be up to much. He felt that it was all false advertising.Besides, a geomancy expert from Janover had tested that Energy Cleansing Vase already! It was definitely a treasure that would benefit its owner's home, but Sebastian had called it evil! He was clearly trying to latch on to the Nichols family by saying those alarming things.Sebastian had been about to continue, but he stopped speaking after hearing what Cornelius said.Anyone whose body had been invaded by such an evil object would need to use spiritual charms to eliminate the evil influence from their bodies if they wanted to stay alive. Otherwise, even if they got rid of the evil object, they would not live for much longer!Norman noticed that Sebastian's expression

    "Dad, even if he does know a thing or two, he's only a traditional medicine doctor. You can't seriously think that he knows about geomancy and the mystic arts! I think he's just looking for a reason to latch onto us!" Cornelius said directly."Latch onto you? You really are conceited!" Oliver gave Cornelius a contemptuous look.What about the Janover Dunhills? Weren't they more powerful than the Nicholses?The head of the Dunhill family was actually taking the initiative to strike up a relationship with Sebastian! Who did the Nicholses think they were?"Norman, have you heard of Angus?" Oliver asked calmly.Norman raised an eyebrow. Of course he had. The Dunhills were a formidable presence in both politics and business."Angus gave Sebastian a thousand-year-old centurion root that's worth 200 million so that he could get on Sebastian's good side. Sebastian didn't even give him a smile in return.""What?" Cornelius turned pale with fright.Norman and Angus weren't close, but

    "The problem is that I don't want to choose," Rosalie retorted before Sebastian could say anything.Sebastian suppressed a smile and rolled his eyes at the man."Come on, beautiful. Let me buy you a drink." The young man snapped his fingers, and two waiters pushed over a cart.The waiter opened the silver cover on the cart, which contained all kinds of liquor."I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm a mixologist, and my name is Xander Winter. I'm the future successor of Prosperity Real Estate, which is a subsidiary of Winter Group."Xander was showing off about his family's influence. He took out a cocktail glass and began mixing up a cocktail.He had just heard about Sebastian and the others from Bosco the day before, and he knew that Bosco had ended up at a huge disadvantage.If he could humiliate Sebastian in public or steal away his date, he would be able to get one back for the Winter family.His position in the Winter family would be sure to rise as a result, and he'd be lea

    When women saw that Winter Group's biggest real estate company was printed on Xander's name card and that he was the future successor of Prosperity Real Estate, they always fell for him instantly.The finishing touch was to tickle their palms slightly, which was when the women would give him some kind of response, after which…Xander had won the hearts of countless women, and he was one of the most romantically experienced men in Sunway.He was very confident and felt that he had already conquered Rosalie, who was an exquisite specimen.However, unexpectedly, Rosalie didn't respond to him at all. She wrinkled her brow instead and tossed his name card on the floor. She then took out a silk handkerchief and wiped her hand a few times before tossing the handkerchief into the trash can.Xander turned bright red. He could not understand why Rosalie was rejecting him. She had even embarrassed him in front of so many people. Those who were attending the Griffins' banquet were all peo

    "I'm a doctor. Why would I lie to you? That wouldn't benefit me at all," Sebastian said, spreading his hands.After the incident with the bus, Sebastian had become famous all throughout the country.Xander had seen the news, so he was familiar with Sebastian's name. Although he hadn't felt much discomfort except for a slight bloating, after what Sebastian had said, he immediately felt uncomfortable. Therefore, he nodded vigorously at Sebastian, indicating that he would do as the latter said."Okay, place your hand at a space of about two fingers below your navel. This is an acupuncture point. Now move your finger to the left. That's right, that's the spot."Xander did as Sebastian said and put his hand over the acupuncture point near his navel."Press down hard with your thumb gently and move the palm of your hand in a clockwise direction. You must be gentle," Sebastian instructed earnestly. The onlookers who had heard of Sebastian's reputation as a miracle doctor, as well as

    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

    As the man in the black robe yelled, the entire hall fell silent at once. The thin old man threw the black-robed old man a disgruntled look, but he returned obediently to his seat.Once the noise had died down, Preston stepped forward and swept an icy gaze over the crowd who were present. "You call yourself the elders of the family?"The monument of our ancestral dragon is right in front of you. How could you bully two young members of the family in front of it? Don't you feel any shame?"Besides, how dare you speak before Arnaud does?"After the harsh scolding they received from Preston, no one in the crowd dared to protest. Sebastian nodded involuntarily. It appeared that Preston did have influence in the Ballard family. At least no one had interrupted his scolding, including Arnaud and the man in the black robe.Preston huffed angrily and bowed to Arnaud, who sat in the middle. "Arnaud, I've brought Samson and Sebastian!"Preston went over to the chair next to the black-robe

    "Sebastian, I won't be going in. Remember, don't say anything without being spoken to, and don't be impulsive!" Andreas said softly in Sebastian's ear when they reached the door to the hall. He then walked over to the crowd, which was packed on both sides of the hall.Samson and Preston walked into the hall without any change in expression. Sebastian hesitated for a moment before hurrying to catch up.When they reached the entrance, the two old men reached out to stop them and said to Preston, who was in the lead, "Preston, I'm afraid that it wouldn't be a good idea for you to go in. Everyone knows that you're biased toward Samson's family. If you get into an argument with Arnaud, then—""Nonsense!" Preston yelled furiously. He spoke in a menacing tone to the two old men. "Don't try those tricks with me. Today, I'm going to be the voice of reason. Who among you can do anything to me?"With that, he pushed them aside and strode into the hall.The two old men gazed after his ret

    The Ballard Estate's resources were unfathomable as it was. Could Isabella's family be even more powerful than theirs?Sebastian clearly remembered that both he and Samson were under the Sacred Medicine Society. They even had the same mentor.The Sacred Medicine Society was above all the other mystic martial arts sects. Even the sect leaders of the Nine Sects were very respectful toward his mentor.If Samson really was from the same sect as Sebastian, then his mentor had clearly been unable to save him. Wouldn't that mean that the Sacred Medicine Society was no match for the Ballards?Wouldn't that mean that Isabella's family was an even greater entity?"If my mother's family is really that powerful, why couldn't they rescue my father? There would also be no reason to let me join the Sacred Medicine Society either, right?" Sebastian asked probingly. It seemed as if Andreas had never even thought about such questions. He smiled and shook his head. "You probably don't know about a
