Chapter 1598

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Sebastian only recovered after a while. He refused quickly. "Mr. Shields Senior, I can't take such an expensive gift—"

"Take it!" Cillian didn't let him refuse. He looked stern as he clasped his hands behind his back and said, "This is the only thing that an old man like me can do.

"As long as that bunch of people from Sword Towers don't get their way, I'll be able to face the members of the Department of Defense.

"Remember, we must not lose the position of the chairman of the Sartvale Martial Arts Association. We can't let the Dragon Sect return either, or there will never be peace in Dramon!"

Sebastian nodded heavily and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Shields Senior."

Cillian and Wyatt nodded in satisfaction when they saw that Sebastian had put the crystal in his pocket.

They all sat down once more and exchanged a few pleasantries before Oliver said to Rosalie, "Rosalie, it's getting late. Take Sebastian back to Steinberg and let him get ready."

"Okay." Rosalie nodded

    Ethan touched the Solispill that he had received and smiled coldly as he said, "Mr. Polene, I'll be honest with you. If Sebastian hadn't meddled in all this, we wouldn't have had to trouble you.""Oh?" Trafford raised an eyebrow and asked coldly, "Sebastian?"Ethan looked menacing as he said in a cold voice, "That's right. It's him! A few days ago, I met a woman with an ice disposition in Steinberg and was about to take her as my apprentice so that I could use her as a furnace for training, but Sebastian stepped in and snatched the woman away from me."When Ethan thought of Whitney's ice disposition, his eyes shone with greed. Women with that kind of disposition were very rare in the world.What was even more rare was how beautiful Whitney was. Even if she wasn't his furnace, she would be the perfect candidate to be his training partner.However, the appearance of Sebastian had made Ethan wary of approaching Whitney. After Terence's death, Ethan had been even more afraid of cove

    However, practitioners of the Way of Wisdom were very different. As long as they broke through the foundation phase, every subsequent level could give them an extra ten years of life or more. Additionally, as they continued to rise through the levels, they could even reach a lifespan of more than 1000 years.That was why Trafford wanted to meet Raphael. He would be doing him a favor, and perhaps one day, he would be able to enter the mystic sects through him as well.Raphael sighed deeply at Trafford's question. He looked rather frustrated as he said, "It pains me to speak of it, but I'm sure you've also heard about the fact that over ten years ago, the Soulbell was lost. It is one of Demongate's sacred objects."We received news recently about it being in Steinberg with a young man named Sebastian. Upon the orders of my sect leader, I came down from the mountain to ask for it back."However…" Raphael instinctively touched his cheek, which Sebastian had slapped.Although it hadn

    Trafford had been intending to intimidate Sebastian.Although letting Ethan take a swipe at Sebastian before the battle wouldn't decide the victory in the arena, they would be able to test Sebastian's attitude. Raphael was sitting opposite Trafford. He got up quickly and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your help, Mr. Polene. If we manage to get back Demongate's sacred vessel, my sect leader will be sure to thank you with a valuable reward.Trafford's eyes lit up. Gifts of gratitude from the mystic sects would probably at least be some kind of pill, or perhaps the knowledge of an amazing technique. Even a Breakthrough Pill would be able to help him enhance his abilities rapidly. He couldn't help flashing a satisfied grin. "You are too kind, Raphael. Both the martial arts and the mystic sects need to learn how to respect the teachers. Ballard's defiant rudeness to you has disgraced all martial arts practitioners." Turning to Ethan, Trafford added, "Mr. Whitehall, we'll have to trou

    Ethan took Cecilia's hand and led her to the front room. When they arrived, he noticed that Trafford and the others had eaten most of the food. Upon seeing Ethan, Trafford asked rather tipsily, "Mr. Whitehall, have you done what I asked you to do?""I've sent someone to do it," Ethan replied. He bowed respectfully to Trafford and gestured toward Cecilia. "Mr. Polene, this is Cecilia, the daughter of Madam Dragon, the leader of the Warrior League." She happens to be my guest, so I brought her over to meet you. I hope you don't mind." He shot Cecilia a pointed look, and she quickly bowed. "G-Greetings, sir." Trafford waved dismissively at her. He said to Ethan, "Take her along with us later. Since she's Madam Dragon's daughter, she's no outsider."Cecilia was pleasantly surprised. Although she didn't know where Trafford wanted Ethan to take her, she was still delighted. To be with the three top swordsmen of the Gladius Sect was already an unimaginable honor to those in martial ar

    Rosalie set her phone down. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and she drove straight to Sebastian's convenience store. When Lyanna saw Rosalie's furious expression, she burst into laughter and went up to her, asking, "Ms. Griffin, why do you look so angry as soon as you walk through the door? My master hasn't offended you, has he? Come and sit down. My master is in seclusion, so please wait for a while." Lyanna led Rosalie to a chair and poured her a cup of tea. At that moment, the door to the inner room opened, and Sebastian strode out. Seeing Rosalie was there, he looked startled but quickly smiled. "What's wrong? I see that your complexion isn't looking too great."Rosalie took a sip of tea and frowned as she said, "It's nothing! It's just that Cecilia was being too rude. Not only is she getting close to Ethan, but she keeps saying bad things about you to my face.""I thought it was something serious. Let her say what she wants." Sebastian smiled wryly and

    What if the three top swordsmen took the opportunity to attack Sebastian? That would be no laughing matter. Rosalie had just finished speaking when they heard the sound of brakes screeching urgently to a stop outside the door.Moments later, the sound of leather shoes clacking on the floor echoed as Liam strode in, clad in his uniform. "Sebastian, Rosalie is right. You must not attend the banquet tonight," he declared and took out an identical invitation, tossing it onto the table. "Hmm? Liam? What are you doing here?" Sebastian asked, looking Liam up and down. Liam had been busy with work recently and hadn't come to visit Sebastian for a long time. "Seb, I came to warn you. I'm not the only one who received this invitation. The Stallones and the Winters did too. Not only that, but almost every influential figure in Sartvale will also be in attendance. I have a feeling that this is a trap for you, Seb," he said sternly as he analyzed the situation. Liam had sent people to

    Liam was startled to hear what Sebastian had said. "Seb, what do you mean by that?" he asked. Sebastian smiled faintly. "It's simple. Just keep them waiting."He knew very well what the intentions of Trafford and the others were. They just wanted to embarrass him in public, and he didn't want to get into an argument publicly with the Nine Sects. After all, not all the high-level executives of the Nine Sects were traitors like Trafford. Sebastian could see everything that Trafford was doing, but it wasn't the time to settle the score yet. "Seb, do you mean that you accepted Swordster's invitation but will be late to the banquet?" There was a glint in Liam's eyes, and he understood what Sebastian meant very quickly. If Sebastian accepted Ethan's invitation but didn't show up, it would be a veritable slap in the face for Ethan. Sword Towers would be the ones getting embarrassed. Sebastian smiled, patting Liam on the shoulder. He grinned and said, "Exactly. This is how you win w

    If Sebastian refused to return the Soulbell, he would be branded as the person who had taken Demongate's treasure by force. If word spread about his actions, Sword Towers or any other sects would be able to use this as an excuse to cause trouble for Sebastian.Ethan couldn't help but feel triumphant. He believed that he had gotten back at Sebastian. Although Sebastian had had the upper hand verbally, Ethan had come off looking morally correct.Sebastian didn't let him stay happy for too long. He said abruptly, "It's none of your business."Ethan's smile froze at once, and everyone present turned to look at him.Sebastian had a point. The loss of Demongate's precious treasure had nothing to do with Sword Towers at all!"Sebastian!" Ethan's rage erupted like a volcano.His patience had worn thin. How could Sebastian humiliate him like this when Trafford was right here? "I need you to understand something. In Dramon's martial arts community, you can't just do whatever you want b

    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
