Chapter 1457

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Roy's expression relaxed slightly upon seeing that Brendan had relented.

At that moment, a maid who was carrying tea accidentally spilled it on him.

"Mr. Sloane Senior, I… I didn't do it on purpose," the maid said fearfully.

Roy looked down at his suit and smiled faintly. "It's alright. We're not saints. Everyone's bound to make a mistake sometimes. I know you didn't mean to do it."

The maid breathed a long sigh of relief.

However, Roy suddenly flicked the paper fan he was holding. There was an icy flash, and the maid's legs were sliced off at the knee.

"Although none of us are saints, that is no reason for you to make mistakes as you wish." Roy's gaze sharpened as he said to the black-clad men waiting outside the door. "Drag her out and cut off her hands."

The maid didn't even have time to plead for mercy before she was dragged outside by two black-clad men.

Roy only stood from his seat when it was late at night, and he gazed out at the night sky through the window.

    "My lord, shall I go with you? I might be able to help," Lyanna said, smiling as brightly as a flower."Well…" Sebastian's brow furrowed tightly. He intended to prevent her from doing so.However, Rosalie was delighted with Lyanna's courteous behavior, so she interrupted before Sebastian could finish. "Sure! One more person means that we'll have more strength. Let's go, hurry!"Rosalie took Sebastian's arm and walked toward the car.Lyanna's footsteps were very light, and she got into the passenger's seat as quickly as a whirlwind. Rosalie couldn't help turning to look at Sebastian in shock. "She… she's Mike's apprentice and has some basics in martial arts," Sebastian explained casually.Rosalie nodded slightly. After getting into the back seat with Sebastian, she said to the driver, "Hurry, drive."As the car drove into the neighborhood of villas in the western suburbs of Sunway, Lyanna's expression changed slightly. Her brow wrinkled as she said, "There's death energy!"Se

    Rosalie led Sebastian and Lyanna to the villa next door.The entire row of villas belonged to Norman, and he had moved next door with his family after Lorcan Croydon suddenly lost his mind.When the doorbell rang, a maid hastily opened the door."Martha, is Mr. Nichols Senior at home?" Rosalie asked politely."Yes, Mr. Nichols Senior is waiting for you. Come with me," Martha Wendley said. She led Rosalie and the others into the study.Norman was pacing back and forth, looking extremely agitated.Technically, he was already retired, and he had passed on all his properties and assets to his descendants. However, he had gotten restless lately and had a discussion with Oliver, after which he decided to accomplish something glorious once more.He had then contacted Lorcan. He was planning to join forces with Croydon Group, which was planning to establish itself in Dramon. They had big plans for Sartvale.Oliver also intended to let Rosalie make a name for herself, which was why he h

    Norman was still hiding the news. He couldn't let the world know that something had happened to Lorcan in Sartvale, because the effects of it would be huge. Even the authorities were keeping it under wraps, and they had a strict blockade on all news of the incident."Why is it like that, Sebastian?" Rosalie was trembling with fear.She had only heard that Lorcan had gotten a strange kind of condition which made him bite everyone he saw, and only on the neck.She had never imagined that the people he bit would end up with such ghastly wounds."Don't worry, it'll be fine." Sebastian comforted Rosalie.The truth was that Sebastian was also a little baffled. Norman's wound didn't look as if he had been poisoned, nor was it an ordinary wound. What was that black pus?"Mr. Nichols Senior, shall I ask your sons to come back?" Martha asked tearfully."Shut up! Why would you tell them to come back? Do you want them to see me in this state?" Norman waved a hand impatiently at Martha.M

    Rosalie would rather watch Norman die than have anything happen to Sebastian."Don't worry, I don't want to die yet. Come on, let's go and have a look," Sebastian said. He turned and said to Norman, "Mr. Nichols Senior, wait here."Norman looked worried as he watched Sebastian and the others leave."My lord, there must be a spiritual medium in that Croydon's body!" Lyanna warned as they walked outside."Do you mean that we can achieve the desired effect if we cut off the spiritual medium?" Sebastian asked, frowning. Lyanna nodded and said, "Of course. However, cutting off the spiritual medium will have the same effect as subduing it, the way you did to me."That was what Lyanna was most worried about. Back then, she had already lost more than half her ghostly energy. What Sebastian was about to face was completely different from her.It was in a totally different league.Sebastian nodded slightly, showing that he knew what the situation was."Rosalie, you won't be able to tak

    "Are you alright, Mr. Zacher?" Alec asked in concern as he hurried up to Cecil.Cecil used a handkerchief to staunch the wound on his head as he said, "It's nothing big.""If you say so," Sebastian said, unable to suppress a smile."Hmph!" Cecil's gaze swept coldly over Sebastian as he said, "I don't have time to bicker with you, young man. Watch me subdue that thing inside, and then I'll come and settle the score with you!"Watching as Cecil was about to squeeze into the crowd while still clutching the wound on his head, Sebastian tried to stop him. "Mister, let me give you some advice. You must not go in. You're injured.""Hmph!" Cecil glanced dismissively at Sebastian and asked, "Are you too scared to even step through the door, young man? That thing is on the second floor!"Cecil swaggered into the villa.As soon as he set foot in the villa, a bone-chilling cold made him pause. He was startled. The cold he felt was different from the cold of the weather. It was a terror that

    Cecil wasn't powerful enough to see the intense dark energy. Only people at Sebastian and Bartholomew's level could sense it."Please move aside," Sebastian said, pushing Cecil gently.Cecil turned after hearing Sebastian speak. He scoffed and said, "Would a brat like you dare to step forward? Even I suffered greatly just now!"Cecil felt that Sebastian was just a reckless young man who didn't know his own strength.Bartholomew turned and noticed Sebastian. "Young man, the thing inside is very difficult to handle. Quite a few young people got bitten just now," he said seriously. Sebastian nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, sir. However, I've always been tough, so I'd like to go up and see."Bartholomew's expression darkened at Sebastian's words, and he said, "Young man, you shouldn't speak so boldly. I'm saying this for your own good.""You are much too reckless and arrogant. Even I wouldn't dare to speak so boldly in front of Mr. Haye!" Cecil huffed coldly.Alec was shiver

    As soon as Cecil spoke, even Bartholomew looked contemptuously at him."Go up if you can then!" A middle-aged man pushed Cecil forward.Cecil shuddered and turned to glare viciously at the middle-aged man. He said, "If you push me again, I'll bite you to death!""Damn, I ran into a crazy dog!" The middle-aged man rolled his eyes scornfully at Cecil."Young man, were you using the Dipper Eradicator?" Among all the people present, Bartholomew was the most knowledgeable. He had recognized it at once. Sebastian turned and said to Bartholomew, "You are very knowledgeable, sir."However, before Sebastian could finish, a wild wind suddenly rose out of nowhere. Even the chandelier in the hall, which was very heavy, began swaying. The gold lights on the seven paper charms were extinguished, and the light in the entire villa suddenly became dim. "What's going on?" Bartholomew felt his skin prickle and a chill ran down his spine.There was an enormous blast, and the doors to the villa

    Even Bartholomew fell to the floor in fear. He stared vacantly ahead. "This is it. We're doomed this time!"The other geomancers began to murmur in fear."If I manage to get out of here alive, I'm going to switch careers at once!""Damn it! This is my second time doing geomancy for someone!"Sebastian was amused at their comments.Clearly, among the traditional five arts of the Way of Wisdom, traditional medicine wasn't the only one that was on the decline. All of the Five Traditional Arts of Crestborne were no longer being passed on.Sebastian got his sword ready. He clasped his hands behind his back and took five steps forward. Finally, he tossed the last paper charm under his feet.As soon as the paper charm touched the floor, it ignited like a candle flame.Sebastian took three steps to the left and threw another paper charm. He continued to change his position as he threw ten paper charms in total.All the paper charms were burning like candles. Although the light wasn't

    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

    As they stepped out of the courtyard gate, Samson suddenly turned and lowered his voice as he said to Sebastian, "I didn't treat you and your mother well. Please don't hold it against me."Sebastian felt even more conflicted. After everything he had been through, he knew very well that there were times when one really had no choice. When Samson saw that Sebastian was looking at him with a conflicted expression, he patted him on the shoulder and gave him a warm smile. Then he took a token from Preston and walked out of the yard.They followed Preston as he walked toward the east, where there was a majestic-looking building."Why are you helping me?" Sebastian suddenly turned and asked Andreas in a low voice. Andreas glanced at him and gave him a long, cryptic smile. "Do you think I'm helping you? I'm helping myself while doing so!""Oh?" Sebastian looked at Andreas in confusion, his brow knitted. Even Rexton had mentioned that Andreas was in Arnaud's favor. Why would he need t

    When Rexton and the others had gone, Preston turned to look at Samson and said irritatedly, "You little rascal. Would I ever hurt you?"Besides, you've been here in isolation for ten years. Why hasn't your temper changed at all? Couldn't you show me some respect in front of all those people?"Samson glanced at Preston but didn't answer.Preston huffed and ignored him. He turned and looked Sebastian up and down instead."Hey, kiddo. Over ten years have passed in just the blink of an eye. You've probably forgotten me. I even gave you candy back then! Come over here and call me Great Uncle Preston!"Sebastian looked at him in surprise. It was true that he didn't have much of an impression of what had happened over ten years ago. However, he could tell from what Preston had said and done that his attitude toward Sebastian's family was completely different from Rexton and the others.Beside Sebastian, Andreas kept shooting him meaningful looks. Sebastian finally smiled and said, "Hell

    Although the old man looked as if he was over 60 years old, his expression was sharp and lively, and his skin was smooth as a baby's. It gave him a youthful air.Even the severely injured apprentices all scrambled up from the ground when they saw him. They hastily bowed and said, "Greetings, Great Uncle Preston!"Even Rexton had no choice but to suppress his anger. He bowed sullenly to the old man and said, "Greetings, Uncle Preston."Preston Ballard glanced at Rexton and turned to shout angrily at the apprentices, "If I hadn't come, were you planning to tear the Ballard Estate apart? Look at all of you! Get out of here right now!"Despite the scolding they had been subjected to, none of them dared to protest. They all lowered their heads and slunk out of the yard. Preston glared angrily at them as they went and snorted. "What an embarrassment to the family!"Then he smiled slightly and looked at Samson and Sebastian as he asked, "Samson, do you have anything to say?"Samson lo

    Rexton's pupils constricted, and the muscles in his face twitched. He stared at Samson with a wary look in his eyes. He and Samson were two minor stages apart. It was no laughing matter. If the two of them began to fight, Rexton would be sure to die if he didn't have any external assistance."What's the matter? Are you scared?" Samson sneered as he asked in a cold, accusatory tone. That flipped a switch in Rexton's head. His expression changed instantly, and he turned a fierce look on Samson. "Afraid?" he asked through gritted teeth.As he spoke, Rexton seemed to make up his mind. He slowly reached into his pocket and took out a pale blue paper charm, which looked thicker than usual.The paper charm was oppressive to look at. Sebastian instinctively sensed a threatening energy approaching!Even Samson looked wary when he saw the paper charm."Uncle Rexton, this is a Soulcrush Charm. Great Uncle Arnaud has clearly said that no one in the Ballard Estate is allowed to use spiri

    Sebastian immediately felt the pressure around him drop. The feeling of being pinned down disappeared as well."How dare you—"Before Rexton could finish, a shadow flashed past him, and Samson popped up right in front of him.Samson stuck out his finger as if it were a sword and tapped him on the chest. Although Samson hadn't used any strength, Rexton could see the murderous look in his eyes. There was a dot of scarlet light that swirled around Samson's finger. A crimson rune was gradually appearing, and there was a chilling, murderous sensation in the air. Sebastian gasped. He had finally realized how the mystic spells should be used, and he was in awe. It wasn't that Sebastian was unable to do it. It was just that up until then, he had only seen the mystic sect apprentices of the secular world. Perhaps their understanding of how to use mystic spells was too superficial, which was why Sebastian's perception had also been affected.Realization only dawned on him when he saw

    At Rexton's roar of fury, everyone turned to look at Samson, who was still standing there quietly without moving."A traitor? Murder?"There was finally a flicker of emotion on Samson's face. A sudden glimmer of light flared in his eyes, which had been devoid of life for a long time."Rexton, you know very well how your father died!"As Samson spoke, he walked toward Rexton with a steady step as he said, "I admit that I've wronged Sebastian and his mother. I was just too soft-hearted back then. That's why I believed your lies and tried to keep the big picture in mind for the Ballards, but look at how you've treated me!"There was suddenly a cold glint in Samson's eyes, and he said in a thunderous tone, "You set up a series of traps and tried to kill and torture my wife and son!"You pursued them until the ends of the earth! If my mentor hadn't rescued Sebastian, do you think he'd still be alive today?"Did you just accuse me of murder? Did you ever think of the fact that we're f
