Chapter 1705

Author: Wendell Mayhew
That afternoon, news of Rainpure Group signing a cooperative agreement with Arctic Snow Group and Frostwave Corporation spread all throughout Sartvale's business world.

Rupert angrily crushed the wine glass he was holding when he heard the news.

"Mr. Lannister, what should we do? Rainpure Group is a large company that has great influence in the entire country. They even have the Dunhills as their supporters. We can't stand against them," the butler said, holding a copy of the city's evening news and looking troubled.

Astro International could cut off all the sales channels for Arctic Snow Group and Frostwave Corporation with a single word.

However, Rupert had no power over Rainpure Group. The Lannisters were insignificant compared to the Wellers, who had much more influence when it came to their wealth and connections.

"Hmph! I refuse to believe that we can't deal with Sebastian! Get my car ready!" Rupert growled through clenched teeth.

"Mr. Lannister, where are you planning to

    How much had Sebastian kept hidden from Whitney?"Why are you two looking at me? I met Mr. Weller through the two of you. Besides, haven't you heard the saying that gold will always glitter?"People will always have an eye on good products. I hear that Rainpure Group is a national corporation, so I'm sure that our production volume will grow in leaps and bounds. We may experience a lot of pressure in terms of manufacturing," Sebastian reminded them. "Oh!" Whitney was shocked. She shot to her feet and said, "I almost forgot to tell Mr. Harley to expand production!"She and Rosalie had clearly defined tasks. Whitney had always been in charge of the pharmaceutical factory.Luckily, Sebastian had reminded them at just the right moment. Otherwise, there would have been trouble when Rainpure Group started urging them for their goods a month from now!Whitney picked up her sling bag and rushed out of the office.After Whitney had left, Rosalie walked over to Sebastian and clasped her

    "It's someone called Rupert. He came to see the vice chairman, Huxley, today. He intends to use the power of the Martial Arts Association to exert pressure on you. I came over as soon as I received the news," Blake said truthfully. Sebastian frowned slightly. Wasn't Rupert the richest man in Sunway that Leopold had brought him to see?He had no grudge against him, but Rupert kept trying to cause trouble for him. What irritated Sebastian even more was that Rupert had even tried to target Rosalie and Whitney. "Interesting." Sebastian laughed coldly, and there was a cold gleam in his eyes. "Mr. Ballard, should I—"Sebastian waved a hand and shook his head. "There's no need for that. I'd like to see what other tricks Rupert has up his sleeve."Since Rupert kept provoking him, Sebastian was not going to show mercy to him or the rest of the Lannister family. They would simply cease to exist. After chatting casually to Sebastian for a while, Blake got up and left. …That afterno

    Cassian looked up with a pleading look on his face. He begged tearfully. "Mr. Ballard, I know I was wrong! It's all my fault. I shouldn't have trusted that liar, Mr. Callahan, and I shouldn't have slandered you."Please, save my grandfather! You can punish me however you want." Cassian knelt in front of Sebastian and groveled to him.After returning to Sunway from Pill Valley, Perseus' condition had gotten progressively worse. Even the best hospital in Sunway had pronounced a death sentence for him.The Windsors had all been flustered when they heard the news. They had only managed to maintain their position as a second-rate family in Draepolis because of Perseus. If anything happened to him, the Windsor fortune would soon be devoured whole by the other families.Not only that, the families that had once been oppressed by the Windsors would get their revenge on them several times over.The survival of the entire Windsor family hinged on whether Perseus lived or died. While t

    "The Ballards?" Darrell could not help looking at Sebastian in surprise.He stared at Sebastian for a long time before gasping. "You're… Samson Ballard's son?"Darrell had only asked because he could see a resemblance. Was Sebastian the illegitimate son that had been kicked out of the Ballard family seven years ago?"I don't want to hear that name again! I just want to know how the Ballards have been doing recently," Sebastian said harshly.Darrell took a deep breath. He shook his head slightly and said, "Mr. Ballard, the Windsors and the Ballards used to interact frequently, but we haven't been in contact for the past few years."I know very little about the Ballards' current situation. All I know is that Madam Ballard isn't the one in power anymore. It's now the second in line, Hubert Ballard."Mr. Ballard, you may have misunderstood your father's intentions back then. Of course, I'm not trying to make excuses for Samson. It's just that there are some things that may not be w

    Darrell thanked Sebastian profusely as he accepted the golden pill. He bowed another three more times to Sebastian in a show of gratitude before leaving. Darrell walked out of the convenience store, looking delighted. He left with Cassian at once. Rosalie asked curiously, "Sebastian, what did you two talk about just now? Why did Mr. Windsor take Cassian with him?"Sebastian smiled and said, "We were just talking about the past. I don't need to personally go to Mr. Windsor Senior to save him. Once he takes that golden pill, he'll recover within less than three hours."Sebastian changed the subject and asked, "Are the Windsors also planning to develop their business in Steinberg?"Rosalie burst into laughter. She nodded and said, "It's all because of the new anti-cancer drug that you and the Northmans developed together."I don't know where the Windsors heard the news, but even Mr. Windsor Senior found out about it. The Windsors used the Wonder Pill Gala as a reason for almost ev

    When Damian sensed the icy look in Sebastian's eyes, he involuntarily took two steps back and smiled stiffly. "Mr. Ballard, please don't misunderstand. M-Mr. Lannister sincerely wants to resolve the misunderstanding between you. That's why he reserved the best room in Eastern Hotel."Sebastian picked up the invitation card and flipped through it casually. He scoffed. "I guess you're saying that Mr. Lannister is being sincere?""Indeed, Mr. Ballard. Mr. Lannister is wholly sincere, just as you've said. Mr. Lannister also heard that the products of Arctic Snow Group are selling very well all over the country. He is interested in becoming a shareholder." Damian smiled and bowed as he explained.Sebastian waved a hand and laughed softly. "Okay. Go and tell Rupert that I'll be there on time."Damian nodded, then asked in a rather embarrassed manner, "Um… Ms. Sutton and Ms. Griffin…""Don't worry. They won't be the only ones going. The two people out front will go as well." Sebastian po

    The Fate Sect was a martial arts sect, but they had withdrawn from society for many years. They rarely had any dealings with the outside world. Jarvis had only gone to see Rupert because he did not want Sebastian's death to cause trouble for the Fate Sect."Don't worry, Mr. Wendham. It's just a life. Leave it to me."After they finished their discussion, Rupert made a trip to the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association and presented them with a lavish gift.When Huxley saw the centurion roots in the gift boxes, he smiled smugly. "Mr. Lannister, you're much too generous. I can't accept such lavish gifts!"Despite what he said, he had already put the gift boxes away unabashedly.Rupert smiled coldly and said, "Mr. Duff, if we can kill Sebastian and take those two bitches alive, I'll have more rewards for you!"Huxley was startled to hear this. He asked curiously, "Mr. Lannister, I didn't think you were interested in drinking and women. Why are you suddenly so interested in wom

    The elevator eventually stopped at the 18th floor.When the doors opened, Sebastian, Rosalie, and Whitney stepped out first. Nina and Lyanna followed the two women closely.When the five of them walked out, the elevator doors suddenly shut tightly, leaving Damian behind steel doors. Lyanna pressed the elevator button instinctively, only to find that it had been locked. An evil smile appeared on her pretty face.Nina's eyes gleamed as she licked her blood-red lips, looking very excited.To them, a huge feast had just been delivered!The flesh and blood essence of ordinary people were useless to them, but the flesh and blood essence of Warriors was a different story altogether. Not only did it have a very strong nourishing effect, but it could also help them both break through to another level and become a king of spirits or a demon king. Rupert's little tricks hadn't fooled Sebastian at all. Besides, Blake had told Sebastian the truth earlier."Let's go. Let's see what Rup

    "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
