Chapter 1923

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Solomon became agitated when he heard that Sebastian wanted to go to the abandoned mine. He tried to dissuade him. "You must not put yourself in danger, my young friend. Even others would have run into ghosts if they didn't heed warnings."

The young man glanced at Solomon and said, "Dr. Jackman, they all say that you're a kind-hearted person. Why are you stopping others from trying to save Ms. Candy when you refuse to do so yourself?"

Solomon turned red and sighed. "There was a huge mining accident there 30 years ago, and it's always been tainted with evil. To tell you the truth, my younger brother also didn't heed the warnings and—"

Tears slid down Solomon's cheeks.

Solomon's younger brother had endangered himself ten years ago to try and cure someone's illness. However, he had been carried back on a stretcher three days after that.

He had been in the same state as the little girl and Candy. His eyes had been vacant, and he had neither eaten nor drunk nor slept. After just three

    "What is your name, sir?" the bodyguard in the lead asked, smiling as he handed Sebastian a cigarette."Sebastian Ballard." As there was a child in the car and the windows were all closed, Sebastian waved the cigarette away."I've never heard of you before!" The bodyguard gave him a name card and said, "My name is Daxton Haddock!"Sebastian took the name card and smiled at Daxton. "I'm not from Boren. I just came here for a trip to Mount Quiln."Daxton was startled. Although the area around Mount Quiln was a popular tourist area, strange things had been happening there continuously since autumn the year before. No one had come there for a holiday for more than half a year."Mr. Ballard, are you confident of being able to save Ms. Candy?" Daxton asked rather worriedly. After all, even Solomon had said that there was no cure for a condition like hers. Sebastian was a young man in his 20s who looked very confident. It was hard not to be doubtful.Sebastian shook his head slightl

    Before long, a man in gray with a straw hat walked toward them.Unus ignored him and just strode past, brushing shoulders with him. Sebastian did the same.Only the middle-aged woman stopped momentarily and hesitated before catching up to Sebastian and Unus. However, when she caught up, she saw an identical middle-aged man in the distance who was walking in their direction."Wait! It's the same person!"Unus stopped abruptly.The middle-aged man walked quickly past them once more. However, the second time he did so, there was a sudden rumble of thunder. As the thunder roared, the ground beneath their feet seemed to tremble."A World Soul Lock spell!" There was a flash of fear on Sebastian's face.The World Soul Lock spell was an extremely evil spell. According to the Sacred Medicine Secret Annals, the souls that entered such a spell would be trapped in it forever, and they would never be reincarnated.The spell had been lost for about 700 years. No one had been taught it si

    At that moment, they heard the sound of a flute in the distance. They all turned in the direction of the sound, only to see a wedding procession made up of hundreds of people. They were all parading in their direction.However, the wedding procession looked very strange. Everyone was dressed in bright red robes, and they were all holding scarlet banners. Right in the middle of the procession, there was a sedan chair being carried by four people. And although the flute was playing a cheerful tune, it sounded rather mournful. Sebastian held Purity as he saw the wedding procession approaching."Who would dare to be so bold? Move aside!" a shrill voice shouted at Sebastian and the others. That was when Sebastian noticed that Candy was the woman sitting in the sedan chair. Beside her, there was a little girl of about six or seven years old. It was the little girl that the middle-aged woman was currently holding. "Leave them here, and we'll spare your lives!" Sebastian said calmly.

    Sebastian nodded slightly and said to Nina, "Don't let them hurt this mother and daughter. Although they're just stray ghosts, they can still kill!"As he spoke, he pulled out his sword and rushed toward the stray ghosts in the lead. That was when Nina finally realized why she had sensed the energy of a king of spirits. The old woman had trapped too many vengeful spirits, and she had been training in black magic.The old woman was completely different from Nina. Nina was a snake to begin with, and she had transformed into human form after training in the mystic arts.However, the old woman was a human who had become a snake after training in black magic. It was a kind of black magic that had been done in the wrong order, and it resulted in one becoming a snake after losing their human form. The old woman appeared to have gotten vast reserves of power and could even have a longer life. However, once she died, she wouldn't be able to enter the spiritual world.As she had original

    There was a thump as the old woman fell so hard that she left a human-shaped depression in the rocky ground.When she hit the ground, she spat out a mouthful of green blood. She looked up in terror at the Devora, who had the head of a dragon and the body of a snake. Her body trembled uncontrollably."We have the culprit! Please give the command, my lord!" Unus said respectfully to Sebastian after he had turned back into his human form.Sebastian looked at the severely injured old woman and sighed. "Don't you know how rare it is to be born as a human? Even the ultimate goal of a mystic beast like a Devora is to transform into a human! But you? Not only did you give up on your human form, you even trained to become an animal!"The old woman stared at Sebastian in despair. She was sure that she would die that day. Neither Sebastian nor Nina would give her a way out. "Kill me! In my next life, I will be sure to get revenge!"Although the old woman knew that she would die, she would

    The old woman shook her head relentlessly and backed several steps away. Suddenly, a large hand closed around her throat from behind her. "How dare you refuse to answer when my lord is asking you a question?" Unus' huge hand was clamped tightly around her neck, like a strong steel lock.The old woman suddenly felt a strong dragon breath enter her body. All her organs began hurting intensely."Don't kill me! I'll tell you!" the old woman begged at the top of her voice. She seemed to have felt death. Life could be an endless cycle for other mystic arts practitioners. Some of those who were very skilled in the mystic arts could retain their memories of their previous lives even in reincarnation. However, life was very precious to the old woman because she would not be able to be reincarnated. Even living for five more years would be better than dying on the spot."Speak!" Sebastian commanded. The old woman pointed at her neck. Sebastian nodded at Unus, who pushed the old woman

    This time, even more miners had been buried inside. Countless orphans and widows knelt at the tunnel entrance to the mine, screaming and crying. However, their husbands and fathers would never return.Eight mining accidents happened in total, and countless miners died there. No wonder the old woman had been able to disguise them as ghost pawns. Although the eight mining accidents hadn't all been related to the old woman, they had all been connected to the Berkeleys. As the illusions disappeared, a round moon appeared in the sky once more. It was a clear night, and stars glittered in the sky. The old woman looked at Sebastian and asked, "Can I go now?""Remember, if you hurt anyone again, I'll destroy the entire Berkeley family!" Sebastian said coldly.The old woman snorted angrily and suddenly transformed into a snake. She disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.Sebastian hastily used a Soul Converge spell to draw the lost souls of the little girl and Candy.He fo

    A flash of anger crossed Nina's face. It was true that no one could be trusted. Sebastian had stepped in during a moment of crisis, but not only were these men ungrateful, they were even trying to make him a scapegoat. It was a good thing that Nina had made herself invisible so that Daxton and the others couldn't see her. Otherwise, they would have come to blows already.Although Daxton wasn't a Warrior, he was used to lording it in Acorn City because he was the bodyguard of the Berkeleys' future daughter-in-law. He would never give in to a frail-looking woman like Nina.Sebastian glanced at Daxton and nodded slightly. He was also worried that Candy might never wake up again.As a doctor, he believed he should take full responsibility for his patients. That was why he had agreed to Daxton's demands in the first place."Please lend a hand and carry Ms. Candy back to the car," Daxton instructed Unus.Unus shot him a cold look and didn't move. If Sebastian hadn't been there, Daxt

    As the man in the black robe yelled, the entire hall fell silent at once. The thin old man threw the black-robed old man a disgruntled look, but he returned obediently to his seat.Once the noise had died down, Preston stepped forward and swept an icy gaze over the crowd who were present. "You call yourself the elders of the family?"The monument of our ancestral dragon is right in front of you. How could you bully two young members of the family in front of it? Don't you feel any shame?"Besides, how dare you speak before Arnaud does?"After the harsh scolding they received from Preston, no one in the crowd dared to protest. Sebastian nodded involuntarily. It appeared that Preston did have influence in the Ballard family. At least no one had interrupted his scolding, including Arnaud and the man in the black robe.Preston huffed angrily and bowed to Arnaud, who sat in the middle. "Arnaud, I've brought Samson and Sebastian!"Preston went over to the chair next to the black-robe

    "Sebastian, I won't be going in. Remember, don't say anything without being spoken to, and don't be impulsive!" Andreas said softly in Sebastian's ear when they reached the door to the hall. He then walked over to the crowd, which was packed on both sides of the hall.Samson and Preston walked into the hall without any change in expression. Sebastian hesitated for a moment before hurrying to catch up.When they reached the entrance, the two old men reached out to stop them and said to Preston, who was in the lead, "Preston, I'm afraid that it wouldn't be a good idea for you to go in. Everyone knows that you're biased toward Samson's family. If you get into an argument with Arnaud, then—""Nonsense!" Preston yelled furiously. He spoke in a menacing tone to the two old men. "Don't try those tricks with me. Today, I'm going to be the voice of reason. Who among you can do anything to me?"With that, he pushed them aside and strode into the hall.The two old men gazed after his ret

    The Ballard Estate's resources were unfathomable as it was. Could Isabella's family be even more powerful than theirs?Sebastian clearly remembered that both he and Samson were under the Sacred Medicine Society. They even had the same mentor.The Sacred Medicine Society was above all the other mystic martial arts sects. Even the sect leaders of the Nine Sects were very respectful toward his mentor.If Samson really was from the same sect as Sebastian, then his mentor had clearly been unable to save him. Wouldn't that mean that the Sacred Medicine Society was no match for the Ballards?Wouldn't that mean that Isabella's family was an even greater entity?"If my mother's family is really that powerful, why couldn't they rescue my father? There would also be no reason to let me join the Sacred Medicine Society either, right?" Sebastian asked probingly. It seemed as if Andreas had never even thought about such questions. He smiled and shook his head. "You probably don't know about a

    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
