Chapter 1731

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Romulus was the left sentinel of the Irongate Sect and was very influential. He was also the apprentice of Peak Three in Sapientia's Cesum Court.

Many sect leaders in the martial arts community showed respect to Romulus, so it went without saying the same would happen in a small place like Steinberg.

When the news of Romulus' death reached the Martial Arts Court, even the head director wet his pants in fear.

Even though he hated Romulus, he should have died anywhere but in Steinberg! If Sapientia started asking questions, how was he going to answer?

"Who killed Romulus?" A middle-aged, stern-looking man in a white robe slammed the table angrily in the Martial Arts Court as he spoke.

He was the head director of the Steinberg Martial Arts Court, Phineas Tuxley. He was also a top expert at the ninth level of the Celestial realm.

Although the Martial Arts Association had undergone a lot of changes recently, Phineas hadn't bothered to get involved in any of them.

After all, the Ma

    Phineas pushed the door open, looking sinister. The moment he walked in, he turned his head aside quickly.A well-built, middle-aged man was lying on a massage bed. He was naked and had four or five masseuses with him.Phineas was the head director. He couldn't just ignore such a crude scene. How did Alaric get all that energy? He was using up so much, but he didn't look tired at all."Well, if it isn't Mr. Tuxley! It seems you have the time to come and see me today. Are you here to have some fun as well?" Alaric asked. He sat up and wrapped a towel around his waist. Phineas covered half his face and turned his head to say, "Mr. Donnelly, Romulus was killed by Sebastian at Scentia an hour ago. Other victims include two of his apprentices and 18 other followers. None of them were spared.""What did you say?" Alaric shot up from his seat in shock when he heard the news.Romulus wasn't as agile as Alaric, but he was the true pillar of the Fury Scimitars. After all, he had the s

    Alaric glared viciously at Phineas. How was he supposed to know?"Since Sebastian was the one who made this mess, then he should do something for the martial arts community to make up for his mistakes. It's his fault for killing Emil, after all!" Alaric said thoughtfully. If Sebastian hadn't defeated Sword Towers and hindered the overseas Dragon Sect's grand plan to return to Dramon, why would Jules have suddenly sent a warning to the Dramon martial arts community?He had even specifically mentioned Sebastian and challenged him. The best solution right now would be to persuade Sebastian to accept Jules' challenge.If Sebastian won, he would be helping the martial arts community to get rid of danger. If he lost, Jules wouldn't allow him to stay alive.If so, Alaric would just need to report the news to Sapientia. Sapientia wasn't going to hold a grudge against a dead person, after all. Alaric might even benefit from it. He thought for a long time and finally came up with a pla

    "Mr. Tuxley, do as I told you to, and Sebastian is sure to agree," Alaric said, smiling sinisterly."I hope so." Phineas walked out of the room, looking extremely displeased. He had come all the way there and still ended up having to take care of the issue.Phineas became angrier the more he thought about it. He almost crashed into the glass doors at the entrance to the club because he was distracted."Be careful, Mr. Tuxley!" One of the deacons who had come with him hastily pushed the glass door open.Phineas glanced at the transparent glass door and said to the pretty young woman at the reception, "Tell your boss to change this door! Damn it, if that glass door is still here the next time I come, I'll wreck your club!"Phineas got into his car, looking extremely menacing.The two deacons followed him cautiously. Phineas was clearly in a terrible mood. Anyone who provoked his anger would be sure to get very unlucky."Mr. Tuxley, where should we drive to?" the driver asked tenta

    "Thank you, Ms. Griffin. I apologize to both of you as a representative of the Martial Arts Court for what happened today. As for the death of Romulus, he deserved it! The Martial Arts Court will not pursue the matter with Mr. Ballard, and we'll even award him!" After that, Phineas hastily left the Moonlyte Club and rushed straight to Sebastian's convenience store.Half an hour later, he respectfully pushed open the door to the convenience store and stood there reverently. He spoke in a small voice to Rose, who was standing there. "Is Mr. Ballard here?""Who are you?" Rose asked, looking coldly at him.Phineas hastily plastered on a smile and said, "I'm the head director of the Steinberg Martial Arts Court, and my name is Phineas Tuxley. I came here especially to see Mr. Ballard.""Mr. Ballard is inside. Please wait a moment," Rose said. She turned and walked away from the counter before going into one of the rooms. She said softly, "Mr. Ballard, someone called Phineas Tuxley i

    Phineas spoke with his brow furrowed, but Sebastian just looked coldly at him. Even if Jules wasn't coming, the martial arts community had never shown any kind of mercy to ordinary citizens."Mr. Ballard, I know that there are a lot of bad apples among the martial arts community, and there are many people who assault the citizens. However, we're still Dramonians. We wouldn't do it for no reason."They're from Southia. Do you think they'll show mercy to our fellow countrymen? Think about the humiliation Dramon has undergone in the past century." Phineas even squeezed out a few crocodile tears.He had been unable to move Sebastian with what he had said earlier, but the last part of his sentence touched Sebastian's heart. He couldn't allow the humiliation of Dramon to repeat itself today.Phineas wasn't completely unreasonable. Although some members of the martial arts community could be a little harsh, the majority of them were still good people.They were bossy and domineering, but

    Phineas found the request rather difficult.It wasn't that he couldn't afford to offend those people. It was just that three days was much too short.In the past two weeks alone, the martial arts community had already committed numerous cases. He couldn't even count how many there had been."Mr. Ballard, I think that the time period given is a little short. There are over 1,000 cases within three days, and we don't have enough people at the Martial Arts Court," Phineas said, looking glum.Sebastian's brow wrinkled slightly. It was obvious how atrocious the behavior of the martial arts community was. Even their head director couldn't count how many crimes they had committed."That's your problem, Mr. Tuxley. I'll agree to fight against Jules when you've sorted out these cases," Sebastian said firmly.Phineas sighed inwardly. Wasn't this setting him a challenge? However, he had to solve it no matter what."Mr. Ballard, I'll take my leave. I'll give you a satisfactory answer within

    When Whitney saw the files on the table, she picked up a few and flipped through them. She asked, "Why are all these cases related to martial arts practitioners? There's even a case of assault by the Skywest Martial Arts Gym. What's going on with that?" She looked at Sebastian in confusion. Shouldn't the files be stored at Police Headquarters?Sebastian pulled her down next to him and smiled. "These cases need to be resolved."Whitney curled her lip and said, "Ha! You want to resolve these cases? They're from the martial arts community. How are you going to do that? You can't even arrest these people, let alone interrogate them. You want to resolve the cases? Forget it."Zane poured tea for Rosalie and Whitney while smiling. He said, "Whitney, the head director of Steinberg Martial Arts Court said that all of these cases will be accounted for within three days. That's why Chief Weist sent the files over.""Oh." Whitney nodded. Rosalie's brow furrowed in slight surprise. "Is tha

    Phineas understood Alaric's intention. He wanted to leave a few of these people and only hand over those who were not as skilled or who had only entered the sect for a shorter period of time. However, that wouldn't work. Phineas shook his head quickly and said, "Mr. Donnelly, if Sebastian is doing his own preparations, we'll be going back on our word by doing that. We can't let these people go."Alaric took a deep breath and said, "Alright. However, let them enjoy themselves in the club for the next two days. We can hand them over on the third day. That'll work, won't it?"Phineas shook his head and said, "I don't think three days will do. Jules will be in Steinberg by then. That means we only have one day. I'll come and get them in the morning the day after tomorrow."He would need time to prepare an arena. Besides, they knew who Jules was.He was a renowned figure in the Southia martial arts community. If he was coming to Dramon to issue a challenge, the media from Southia woul

    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

    Sebastian felt his blood boiling.Although he had once hated Samson because of how he had kicked Sebastian and Isabella out of the family, Samson was still his flesh and blood!When he saw how Rexton was mocking and humiliating Samson, Sebastian felt extreme fury.However, the restrictive force around him was just too strong. Even though he used every skill he had ever learnt, he still couldn't get out of the Skylock Spell's restriction. He could only watch them be smug and arrogant.At that moment, a young man in the crowd suddenly gave Sebastian a resounding slap and said coldly, "It's been ten years! This day has finally come for you and Samson!"If your mother hadn't caused a huge fuss here, my grandfather would never have died! Today, I am going to let Samson get a taste of what it's like to have a family member die in front of him!"The man suddenly pulled out a three-foot-long sword from behind his back. He thrust it at Sebastian's chest.Sebastian couldn't even move a

    "Sebastian, I was only planning to ask you to go and greet the elders," Rexton said. "Since you insist on doing things the hard way, don't blame me for being ruthless!"He put one hand behind his back as he fixed a sinister look on Sebastian. There was a murderous tone in his voice as he spoke once again. "Even if you do have some skills, those basic moves aren't even worth looking at here!"As Rexton finished speaking, several youths from the Ballard family stood in the four main directions, respectively. They were all holding a blue paper charm that even Sebastian had never seen before. They began to form a seal. "Seal off the sky and lock the earth!" the four men boomed simultaneously before tossing the paper charm into the air!In a flash, the four blue paper charms disappeared into thin air. Countless silver bolts of light rushed up to the clouds with the four of them at the center of it!Right after that, the silver bolts of light weaved together to form a huge net. Countle

    "Stop talking!" Rexton said angrily, cutting off their discussions. He then turned to look at Sebastian and said, "Sebastian, as a junior member of the family, you should be polite. Since you're back, come with me and greet your elders!"Although Rexton appeared to be giving Sebastian a suggestion, the murderous look in his eyes and his commanding tone wasn't pleasant at all. Sebastian looked coldly at him and the people behind him. He huffed and asked icily, "What if I refuse?""What did you say?" Rexton's eyes turned cold, and he eyed Sebastian with an unpleasant look on his face.Among the people behind him, four men walked out. They stared fixedly at Sebastian, as if he were their sworn enemy. They had also taken up positions in the best spots to attack."Are you going to try to do things by force now? Fine. I'd like to stretch too!" Sebastian crooked a finger at them in a challenge."Where do you think this is? How dare you behave so recklessly here?" one of them yelled a
