Chapter 1820

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Everything ended once one was dead. Any fame and renown granted after death was meaningless.

"Mr. Tuxley, you must be joking," Percival said, barely holding it in.

He continued, his eyes bulging. "Sebastian promised that he would lend us Purity if we won three matches in a row, but Mr. Lorne won 12 matches. In the end, he died in the arena because his strength had run out. What do you have to say about that?"

"When did I say that I would lend it? I said I could lend it. Don't you understand the difference?" Sebastian asked coldly.

Phineas chuckled. "That's right. Mr. Ballard meant that he could lend it or decide not to. However, since you've promised to stand up for Dramon's martial arts community, you should be battling in the arena anyway. As for whether you live or die, that depends entirely on your own capabilities."

Everyone could tell that he was biased toward Sebastian. Ezekiel had the highest ranking among them, and everyone turned to look at him. At this point, he was the

    After returning to the club with the rest of the Sapientia, Ezekiel smashed more than ten cups in his anger. The more he thought about what had happened that day, the angrier he became. How could that bastard Sebastian have tricked him like that?"Mr. Harton, why didn't you confront Sebastian?" Alaric asked in confusion.Ezekiel struck him hard across the face. "Are you an idiot?" he snapped. "How can we argue with him when he still has Purity?"Ezekiel had been planning to use Aiden's death to force Sebastian into a corner. However, that would only force Sebastian to use his trump card. When that happened, who would take the brunt of it?Gritting his teeth, his eyes glinted with malice. "Since Sebastian didn't keep his word, we don't have to play fair either!"Alaric was still stunned by the slap. He looked timidly at Ezekiel, not daring to say anything.Percival stepped forward to smooth things over. "Mr. Harton means that we'll go to Sebastian's place tonight and invite his

    The battle at the arena continued until evening. Four deacons from Dramon's martial arts court had joined forces to defeat over 100 of the international experts who had challenged them. It had pushed the martial arts battle to new heights."Everyone, it's getting late. We can have the final match tomorrow morning!" the host said into the mic to all those in the arena and in the audience.Two-thirds of the seats in the stands were already empty. Apart from the Yvantonian Warriors, who had been wiped out by Yutaria, most of the Warriors from other countries had been killed by Lyanna and Nina.Out of 400 or 500 visitors, only less than 200 were left. If the battle went on, everyone in the opposition stand would be dead after a day at most.…After returning to Yutaria's base camp, Luigi stood up and asked a middle-aged, "Mr. Gallo, have you noticed that there's something strange about the Dramonian Warriors?"For two days in a row, Luigi had been watching sharply. He couldn't unders

    Luigi had just left when someone reported his movements to Alessio."Oh? Luigi left with six people?" Alessio asked, looking stern."Yes. They brought weapons and were wearing night camouflage clothes!" a young Warrior said.Alessio shook his head and said, "Luigi is walking into certain death. He shouldn't have done that."He suddenly thought of the look of despair in Luigi's eyes when he had left Alessio's room. Only someone who couldn't see any hope and had no choice but to die would look like that."Mr. Gallo, Luigi isn't betraying us, is he?"As soon as the young Warrior spoke, Alessio slapped him and yelled angrily, "What do you know, you bastard?"The young Warrior hunched his shoulders and lowered his head quickly."He's going to find that mystic arts expert for us! He's using his life to ensure our safety!" After taking a few deep breaths, Alessio ordered coldly, "Get out!"The young Warrior hastily left his room.…At that moment, Sebastian and Lyanna were being en

    Rose shook her head slightly and laughed sardonically. "Who told you that? I don't know whether the ancestral god will be revived or not, but Yutaria won't be destroyed because of one entity. You've been deceived."If anyone else had said so, none of them would have believed it. However, Rose had once been the most loyal follower of the Sanguis Cult, and she was also their top assassin. That made her words much more credible."Ms. Rose, although we shouldn't doubt what you've said, you did betray the Sanguis Cult!" another assassin said coldly.They felt that Rose had already betrayed the Sanguis Cult by not helping them find the Reincarnation Pill.As a top-level member who had been nurtured carefully by the Sanguis Cult, she should have been the one who put in the most effort for them, but she had chosen to join Sebastian's side instead.Rose just smiled thinly and asked, "The Sanguis Cult? It was a heinous entity, to begin with! Besides, whether the Reincarnation Pill exists or

    Rose's sword skills had already been exquisite even before she went missing."Mr. Coppola" One of the assassins shouted, glaring angrily at him."You're no match for Ms. Rose. If you fight against her, you will die. Let's go back," Luigi said calmly. He had good intentions, but good intentions were often lost on those who were determined to die.The Yutarian assassins ignored his efforts. "Hmph! How will we know unless we try?"As they spoke, they took up positions in five different directions. Five machetes gleamed coldly and pointed at Rose."Go and meet your goddess Amarella!" Rose said as she pulled out her dagger. Immediately, a bolt of lightning seemed to flash in the room.The Yutarian assassins had just turned their heads to avoid the piercing light when Rose moved. With just a wave of her hand, two heads flew into the air."Damn it!" One of the Warriors rushed toward Rose, wielding his machete.Rose thrust her blade forward so fast that she seemed to move in a blur.

    The others nodded and leaped off the building with Gaston. They slipped into the residential area quietly from a side gate.The moment the 20 of them set foot in the neighborhood, they sensed something strange.When they had been at the gate of the residential compound, many of the houses had had their lights on. However, as soon as they walked into the residential area, all the lights were extinguished at the same time.Gaston looked around carefully. It wasn't an illusion. They were surrounded by pitch darkness, and there wasn't even the faintest glimmer of light at all."Mr. Lamden, why did all those houses suddenly turn off the lights?" a middle-aged man asked warily.Gaston shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know, but let's all be careful."He took a few steps into the residential area and suddenly stopped in his tracks. The more he walked forward, the more uneasy he felt. It felt as if there was a great danger lying in wait ahead of them."Mr. Lamden? What's the ma

    Gaston gulped. The 20 or so people that he had brought wouldn't even be able to deal with the snake, let alone Lyanna.Sebastian must have been prepared, and they had fallen into his trap."You'd better let us go. We're affiliated with the Sapientia," Gaston yelled loudly.He wanted to wake the inhabitants of the residential area or to attract the attention of the officials so that he could escape.However, as soon as he shouted, he realized that his voice seemed to travel a great distance before bouncing back to him.When he heard the echo, he frowned. That kind of thing would only happen in an enclosed space.Besides, his shout hadn't attracted the attention of the inhabitants of the residential area at all. Not a single light flicked on."Affiliated with the Sapientia?" Lyanna scoffed. "That's exactly who we're looking for. You don't need to keep shouting. No one will hear you, and no one will be able to find your corpses either."With Nina around, the Warriors couldn't keep

    The dark figure did not even try to dodge or fight back. Then, it landed a punch squarely on Gaston's chest.There was a loud sound as Gaston flew backward through the air and fell with a thump more than 40 feet away.As soon as he stood up, blood sprayed out of his mouth. He felt as if his internal organs were churning inside him. The punch had given him severe internal injuries.Gaston wasn't some useless lump. He was a skilled expert at the sixth level of the Celestial realm, but he hadn't even been able to withstand one punch from his opponent.He immediately turned ashen as he stared in terror at Lyanna and the dozen dark figures. "Mr. Lamden!" Yet another apprentice was swallowed by the giant snake. He pleaded with Gaston for help until the moment he died. However, Gaston couldn't even save himself, let alone anyone else.Before he could get up from the ground, a dark figure stepped hard on him and pinned him down. No matter how much strength he tried to use, he couldn

    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
