Chapter 1584

Author: Wendell Mayhew
"Although my family has been involved in the pharmaceutical industry for many years, we know very little about wonder pills. Could we trouble you to help us keep an eye on things?" Zane asked earnestly.

Sebastian nodded slightly when he saw the pleading look on Zane's face. He said, "I don't know much about the art of refining pills either, but I can help out with appraising ordinary wonder pills."

Zane felt as if a burden had been lifted from his shoulders upon Sebastian's agreement.

Ordinarily, Sebastian would have been sure to help. However, this time it clashed with Whitney's injury. Zane was pleasantly surprised that Sebastian could make time to do him this favor while taking care of Whitney.

"Shall we go now?" Zane asked, glancing at his watch.

According to the time on the invitation, there was only less than half an hour left until the start of the Wonder Pill Gala.

If they took the journey there into account, the timing would be very tight. That was why Zane had no choi

    "Dad! Sebastian has killed Mr. Manderly!" Ethan said loudly as soon as the call connected. His voice was trembling as he spoke.The news surprised Brendan. He was silent for a long time before he asked heavily, "Is this reliable news?""Completely reliable! Taylor barely escaped death, and he was the one who told me himself. Dad, I can't stay in Sartvale any longer. Sebastian knows that I'm the one going against him, and I'm sure he's not going to forgive me. I… I don't want to die," Ethan said, wiping away the cold sweat on his brow."You don't have to worry, son. I've already asked for a Solpill from Medcrofters. If you take this pill, you'll be at peak strength of your Energy Refining Technique level within two hours. "Someone will send you that pill before the sun goes down today. Whether in the battle ring or handling a personal issue between you and Sebastian, you'll surely be able to kill him within two hours," Brendan said, smiling sardonically."A Solpill?" Ethan racked

    Cecilia had been among them."Oh… I see that it's the daughter of the Warrior League's leader. What a pleasure. Is there anything I can help you with, Ms. Lucox?" Ethan asked cheekily."Mr. Whitehall, I heard that you've come to Steinberg. Could I have the honor of treating you to a meal?" Cecilia asked through the phone.Ethan's bad mood disappeared at once. He had been alone after Tessa's death, and he had been bothered by the fact that no one was warming his bed for him. Now that a gorgeous woman was approaching him of her own volition, why would he refuse?"Thank you for your hospitality, Ms. Lucox. However, how can I let you pay? I'll pay for the meal, and you can choose the venue. What do you think?" Although Ethan had grown up in Sword Towers, he could still be a gentleman. Besides, Cecilia was Belinda's daughter. If Belinda found out that her precious daughter had slept with Ethan, she would probably be furious!The more Ethan thought about it, the happier he became. I

    Although Godfrey was being modest, there was a barely concealed arrogance in his expression. He wasn't from a medical sect, however, he was still a refinist who had been famous for a long time.Refinists were very rare among the mystic martial arts sects. Even the sect leaders of several major sects would have to show respect to them.That was what gave Godfrey the confidence to be arrogant.As he spoke, countless pairs of eyes focused on the sandalwood box he was holding.At that moment, Godfrey became the center of attention. He could feel the hungry, admiring, and respectful eyes on him from the crowd. He was filled with satisfaction.When he had first started dabbling in the art of refining pills, he had been scorned by many of his peers. Some of them had even mocked him in public.If only they could see him now…A single true pill refined by him could make countless numbers of the rich and influential humble themselves before him. He also had the respect of many of his peer

    Although the crowd didn't know the exact value of the pill, Patrick had praised it lavishly, and he was also a refinist. How could he be wrong?The atmosphere immediately became hostile. Almost everyone there wanted the golden pill for themselves, even if they had to pay with everything they had."What do you think, Mr. Ballard?" Zane asked, lowering his voice as he turned to Sebastian."It's worth less than a penny!" Sebastian said, sighing and shaking his head. He had only taken one glance at the Life Prolonging pill."What?" Zane almost cried out loud. He stared in disbelief at Sebastian and asked, "Mr. Ballard, are you saying that the golden pill is… is worthless?" Even Zane couldn't help being shocked. He had been planning to buy the golden pill no matter what the price was, but after hearing what Sebastian had said, he was having second thoughts.Sebastian laughed softly and did not say anything else.At that moment, Godfrey looked imperiously at the crowd and said, "This

    As soon as Zane spoke, both Cassian and Joel frowned almost simultaneously.The Northmans resided in Sartvale, and their financial power was only moderate compared to the main pharmaceutical families. Joel and Cassian hadn't expected Zane to bid four billion, which was a very high price!Even though both of their families had huge reserves of money, most of it was tied up in real estate or in their company factories and buildings. They didn't have four billion or more in liquid funds.3.5 billion was the limit of what the Windsors could afford. If they used up all their liquid funds in one go, the consequences would be dire.The atmosphere thickened, but the doors to the venue suddenly opened. A slender figure walked in with four bodyguards.Everyone turned to look at the figure almost simultaneously.It was a gorgeous woman who was about 23 or 24 years old. She confidently strode into the venue."Rosalie?" Cassian and Sebastian called out her name almost at the same time."4.5

    Although Sebastian had lowered his voice as much as he could, the venue was so quiet that one could have heard a pin drop. Everyone heard what he had said very clearly.Cassian had heard it as well!He had almost exploded with anger when he saw Sebastian stroke the hair of the woman of his dreams. Rosalie had even started whispering with him."Hey, who gave you the right to slander Mr. Callahan?" Cassian slammed his hand on the table and shot to his feet as he pointed at Sebastian. He said in a loud and accusing voice, "Even the Crane Sage has looked at it and said that Mr. Callahan has refined a premium pill! How could a young guy like you say that the pill Mr. Callahan has refined is useless? Aren't you afraid that you'll have to eat your words?"Godfrey had been staring at Sebastian from the stage, and his expression turned menacing at once. He took a step forward and looked sharply at Sebastian as he said, "Young man, you should watch what you say! What evidence do you have t

    "Cassian, you—" Rosalie hadn't expected Cassian to intervene. Her brow furrowed in anger."Rosalie, I know that we're childhood friends, but this friend of yours is just too arrogant. I won't talk about his family background, but he actually insulted Mr. Callahan in front of everyone. That's unforgivable—"Sebastian laughed softly and cut Cassian off. "Tend to your garden, and let the wind caress the leaves."Cassian frowned and asked coldly, "What do you mean by that?""None of your business!" Everyone in the venue burst out laughing. The line that Sebastian had quoted was from a poem written by the younger sister of Sharento, who was a famous poet. It was about someone who was a busybody.It was a famous poem, and it was very surprising that Cassian, who was the heir of a prestigious family, hadn't recognized it and had even asked about it in front of everyone.Cassian turned red with embarrassment. He gritted his teeth and stared at Sebastian as he said, "You can talk unti

    Godfrey looked menacingly at Sebastian and said, "You don't have any proof for what you said! Proof! Can you show us the proof? How can you say that my Life Prolonging pill is useless? You won't be able to convince anyone with that one-sided statement."Sebastian laughed coldly. He pointed at the golden pill and asked, "Are you unhappy about the fact that I said it's a useless pill? Fine. Since you want to be humiliated in front of everyone, there's no reason for me to try and spare your dignity."Sebastian clasped his hands behind his back and began to explain himself in great detail."Firstly, there are only 21 medicinal herbs in the formula of a Life Prolonging pill, but you've put more than 100 medicinal herbs in this one, haven't you?"You think that this is a successful merging of the art of pill refining and that it can increase the rate of success for your pill, but you've forgotten something. The more types of medicines there are, the less refined their flavor will be. The

    "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
