The Amazing Doctor Chapter 2027
After Colton and Anton had left, the onlookers gradually dispersed.Sebastian returned to his seat and continued sampling Boren's local delicacies."Mr. Ballard, the Wentworths and the Wind Dancers are unlikely to just let this go. Besides, the Teritz Hotel and the Rayon Hotel aren't under our control yet. Although you're legally the owner, the management of the hotels must be changed!"Rocco was in the field of business management and knew how important the management staff was. If the senior staff stayed the same, the hotels would only belong to Sebastian by name. "Change the management?" Sebastian asked mildly. "Do you have the people for it?""Well…" Rocco shook his head slightly and said, "Although I know a few managers, they're not familiar with hotel operations. It'll be better to promote someone from among the mid-level staff!"Firstly, they know the hotels well. Secondly, they'll be able to handle human resources and other arrangements easily once they're promoted. It'l

"Dad—""You ingrate!" Joaquin pointed furiously at Anton. "Do you know that you almost destroyed our family?""Dad… I just couldn't accept it. The hotel in Acorn City can bring us a profit of 100 million a year. Why should we just hand it over to Ballard for nothing? I—"Before Anton could finish, Joaquin slapped him. He did it so hard that Anton flew into the door and smashed it, rolling out to the hallway.Peggy Sorel was sitting on the living room couch and watching TV as she snacked on peanuts. When she saw that her son had been hit, she hurried over and helped him up before looking angrily at Joaquin. "What are you doing, Joaquin?" she demanded. "This is our son, not your subordinate nor your enemy! If you touch him again, I won't forgive you!"As Peggy spoke, she charged at Joaquin and began to scratch and hit him mercilessly.Joaquin pushed her aside and pointed at Anton. He yelled angrily at Peggy, "It's all your fault for spoiling that boy rotten! That is why he does w

Anton knew how the world worked. He wasn't just a brainless wealthy heir. Although he had already offended Sebastian, the latter hadn't killed Anton the way he had the others. That meant that he still had a chance!If he played his cards right, he might even be able to win Sebastian's favor. And if that happened, the Wentworths wouldn't just prosper in Boren, but they'd rise to new heights.As for the properties under his name, how much were they worth? Anton knew that he would have to spend money to earn money."We'll talk about it when Mr. Ballard returns from Mount Quiln," Joaquin said. "However, I've got to warn you. You were able to get out alive because he was lenient. There won't be a next time!"He sighed deeply and waved a hand at Anton impatiently. Then, he returned alone to his study.Anton slumped onto the floor as he gazed at Joaquin's retreating figure."What on earth happened, Anton?" Peggy asked as she helped Anton up from the floor. She pulled him to sit on the c
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 2030
As Duo was formed from dragon energy, the cursed energy didn't affect him at all. In fact, he couldn't even detect its presence.However, Sebastian was made of flesh and blood. If the cursed energy entered his body, the consequences would be catastrophic. Without hesitation, Sebastian took out the Sky Devouring Bottle and held it in the palm of his hand.Muttering a chant under his breath, the Sky Devouring Bottle began sucking up the cursed energy that was surrounding them. Cursed energy was the bane of Warriors and mystic arts practitioners. However, it would be refined into energy replenishing pills once it was absorbed into the Sky Devouring Bottle, which would be very beneficial to Sebastian.Soon enough, energy replenishing pills began spilling out of the mouth of the bottle. The pills that had been refined this time were all mystic pills that were a purplish scarlet color the size of jelly beans.Even though Sebastian was at the advanced stage of the fourth level of the

"Du—"Sebastian had just taken a step toward Duo when he was suddenly hit by a terrifying wave of energy. It crashed heavily against his chest.He staggered backward and spat out a mouthful of blood. If a single wave of energy was already that powerful, one could imagine the sheer force of the lightning strike that Duo had endured.Duo's eyes remained tightly shut. He was adjusting his breathing continuously, and scales grew all over his body once more. They glowed with a dark light and enveloped his entire body. "My lord, please leave this place quickly. The next eight thunder tribulations will be more powerful than the last. At your current realm, you won't even be able to withstand the aftershocks!" he said seriously with his eyes still closed.Sebastian looked up at the sky. The lightning bolt had burned a hole in the rock above their heads, and it was as big as a water tank.The clouds in the sky above them were dark and oppressive. Lightning flashed in the storm clouds
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 2032
"My lord, you—"Although Duo was formed from spiritual energy, he knew that divine tribulations couldn't be avoided. If the divine law found out that he had avoided the thunder tribulation on purpose, he would have to face the destructive and terrifying divine thunder the next time."The thunder tribulation can become your secret weapon. If you're in a dangerous situation, you just have to crush this Tribulation Avoidance Charm, and the thunder tribulation will be upon you at once. No matter how strong your opponent is, they are unlikely to be able to withstand it!"Sebastian took the Tribulation Avoidance Charm and folded it into a triangle before handing it to Duo. He said, "Keep it carefully and follow my lead!"Duo took the Tribulation Avoidance Charm and nodded heavily as he said, "Yes!"Although he hadn't experienced the full divine tribulation, Duo's energy was now equivalent to an expert at the first level of the Soul Awakening stage. As they continued forward, Sebasti

Sebastian glanced impassively at Andreas before turning to Duo. "Let's go!"Duo nodded and followed behind Sebastian as they strode into the estate.From the outside, the estate looked extremely grand and luxurious. Once they had walked in, they saw that it stretched out into the distance on either side. Right in the center of the estate was a man-made lake that was several dozen acres wide. There were towers and pavilions built on the lake itself, and winding walkways that led straight to another tall watchtower that was several miles away. Under the moonlight, the surface of the lake gleamed silver. The water lilies around them emitted a refreshing fragrance. The entire estate made them feel relaxed and at ease, especially when they had passed through the walkways built on the lake. A concentrated spiritual energy blasted them in the face.They had just reached the second watchtower when two guards in brocade armor walked out of the shadows all of a sudden. They reached out

Sebastian was from Braxton's side of the family. However, Braxton was only one of the side branches of the eight main branches of the Ballard family. For the past few decades, Braxton had pretty much cut off all contact with the Ballards. That was why his branch had been marginalized by the family almost completely.Despite this, the branch had produced two outstanding apprentices, who were Samson and Sebastian, respectively. This was what had attracted the attention of the Ballard family toward Braxton's branch once more."Sebastian, I'm sure that you still don't understand why Uncle Samson kicked you and your mother out of the family back then. Am I right?"Sebastian glanced at Andreas, but he didn't answer. No matter what Andreas said to him, it wouldn't be easy for Sebastian to forgive the jerk who had abandoned his wife and son."It was because of the emerald token!" Andreas answered his own question when he saw that Sebastian hadn't responded."The emerald token?" Sebastia

Since Declan had coincidentally met Sebastian at the dinner table that day, he had thought of bringing the latter over to his side. That way, Sebastian could work for him. "Sebastian, I'm planning to make an exception and take you as my apprentice. What do you think?" Declan asked again when he saw that Sebastian was ignoring him.Sebastian continued to ignore him. Did he really thought he could be Sebastian's mentor? The old man must be crazy!"Sebastian, you should hurry and kneel to my grandfather! You're lucky to get him as a mentor! My grandfather hasn't accepted any apprentices for 20 years!"Bryce glared at Sebastian, whom he felt was being far too tactless. There were countless people fighting to have Declan as a mentor."Mr. Byrne Senior, I don't wish to have a mentor. Besides, no one is qualified to be one," Sebastian said impassively. "You little—"Declan was furious. Sebastian was far too arrogant! He was already humbling himself by deigning to take Sebastian as an

Bryce saw the anger in Declan's face, so he said reluctantly to Larys, "I'm sorry, Mr. Compton. I've acted impulsively."Acted impulsively? It would have been better if Bryce hadn't apologized at all. His apology had made Larys even angrier. He clearly had no respect for Larys at all if he could slap him just out of a moment's impulse. Larys was the mayor of Steinberg. How could he just let things go just because Bryce had said that he had been impulsive? "Mr. Compton, my grandson is young and ignorant. Please don't hold it against him." Declan had no choice but to speak up and apologize to Larys on Bryce's behalf. Larys could only nod. He smiled slightly and said, "Forget about it. Make sure that it doesn't happen again."Once everyone was seated once more, Bryce continued staring viciously at Sebastian. It was all Sebastian's fault that he had been slapped twice by Declan!He couldn't just let him go, but he didn't dare to cause any more trouble at the dinner table. Howeve

"People always say that you can see what a person is like from looking at their family. I can see that it's true," Sebastian said impassively.That was a harsh insult to Declan. It implied that Bryce's rude behavior was a reflection of Declan's lack of good character, and that their family didn't have good manners.Declan turned purple with rage. Ever since he had become one of the esteemed members of the Healer Sect, everyone in the martial arts community always spoke respectfully to him, especially those of the traditional medicine community. All of them were polite whenever they met him.However, Sebastian had insulted him thrice in a row, and each insult was worse than the last. Rosalie couldn't help but laugh. She leaned on Sebastian's shoulder and turned her head away, her slender figure trembling with the effort of not laughing out loud."You're terrible! You've insulted them so slyly!" Rosalie whispered in Sebastian's ear.Sebastian reached out to put an arm around her t

Sebastian's expression turned cold at once. What was so important about an elder of the Healer Sect? Was there any reason for him to make so many people wait?Besides, the banquet had been set at 9:00 pm, and both he and Rosalie had arrived on time. Why should Declan be treated differently?Sebastian had never had any patience with people who used their age as an excuse to do whatever they wanted to."Forget it. Calm down, both of you, and let's both refrain from saying anything else."Larys stood up quickly to smooth things over. Both Sebastian and Julian remained silent out of respect for him. However, they both exchanged icy looks.Now that the conflict had subsided, Larys leaned closer to Sebastian and whispered, "Mr. Ballard, I'll be honest with you. I can't afford to offend either you or Mr. Byrne. Please help me out and refrain from pursuing this matter further."Larys was being sincere. He was in awe of Sebastian's allies, but Declan had equally powerful allies supporting

Upon hearing Rosalie's words, Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head.The Nine Sects wouldn't dare to say a thing to the Ballard Estate, who in turn thought nothing of the Healer Sect.Andreas snorted in laughter and said, "If you had said so 100 years ago, even I would have had to concede. However, times have changed now.""What do you mean?" Rosalie looked curiously at Andreas. It seemed that Sebastian's cousin was very familiar with the Healer Sect. "About 12 years ago, they went on the wrong path. If you check thoroughly, you'll probably find that the development of many new medicines was related to the Healer Sect. However, they are not the refiners!"Rosalie seemed to be deep in thoughts. Her brow darkened as she said thoughtfully, "Do you mean to say that the Healer Sect has abandoned the art of medicine and has decided to go in the direction of the art of pill refining instead?"This made Andreas see Rosalie in a different light.Medicine and pill refining were very

"Are you talking about your cousin? He doesn't look like a businessman at all, though. He looks more like…"Rosalie put her chin in her hands, her brow tightly furrowed. However, she couldn't find an appropriate way to describe Andreas.He felt very strange to Rosalie. There was a kind of energy he had that was difficult to express in words. "It doesn't matter whether he's a businessman or not. He just has to have money. Why don't we discuss it with him tomorrow? I think he'll probably support you unconditionally," Sebastian said confidently."Really? But if we develop a similar medicine, won't we be going against the Croydons? That doesn't seem right."Lorcan was a friend of Oliver's, after all. That meant that he was a friend of the Griffins. Rosalie didn't want to make such an important family their enemy in business. "With that contract, we have to show the Croydons that they shouldn't become ungrateful, nor should they use their force against us!" Sebastian exclaimed in a
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 2074
"However, Mr. Croydon's contract is even more important than the sales channels!" Rosalie exclaimed.She handed one of the contracts to Sebastian and said, "These are a series of medical investments that the Croydons have made here. We can participate in all these projects, particularly these two innovative medicines."Sebastian looked at what Rosalie was pointing at. One was called the Rejuve Pill, while the other was called the Longlife Pill. Both medicines had very specific functions. The Rejuve Pill was clearly a beauty product developed especially with women in mind. As for the Longlife Pill, it gave one pause for thought.Not only did it have the ability to extend one's life, it could also improve certain functionalities for men. In other words, anyone who took the medicine would have the energy of an 18-year-old in all aspects!If that was the advertising slogan, it would be sure to set most people's imaginations running."Although this medicine is aimed at a wide targe

At Andreas' question, Rosalie covered her mouth and giggled. She pointed at Zane and said, "We haven't come across any trouble, but someone has gotten seriously injured."Sebastian turned to look at Zane and eyed him for a long time. He suddenly pulled up the hem of Zane's pants and couldn't help bursting into laughter. It turned out that Zane had gotten rather cocky lately and was always provoking Rose. He had ended up with thick scabs on both his knees. The smell of blood probably came from him."Zane, look at where you've been injured… you'd better refrain from offending women. If you end up getting calluses, you'll just end up being punished when you get married!"Sebastian advised him, suppressing a smile.Zane could no longer endure it. "Seb, that bit— I mean, that woman, Rose is just too much! I was just having a friendly match with her—"Before Zane could say more, a slender figure pushed the door open and entered. It was Rose!Zane had been about to pour out all his

Even by plane, it would take them four or five hours to reach the foot of Mount Quiln.They had just walked into a Stonedoor Spell, and they had immediately arrived in Steinberg!"It's just the Escape Technique, which is one of the arts of paper charms. Don't be so shocked. I'll teach you when I have time!" Andreas said, smiling as he patted Sebastian's shoulder.Sebastian couldn't help feeling awed. The Ballards were clearly very accomplished in the mystic sects. It could be said that they were on par with the Sacred Medicine Society legacy. Although they were only about a dozen miles or so away from Steinberg, which was a negligible distance to Sebastian and the others, it was different for Whitney. She was a young woman, after all.Sebastian pulled out his phone and called Zane. Ever since Sebastian had left Steinberg, Zane hadn't been able to sleep or eat well. He had been waiting to hear any news from Sebastian.When he received Sebastian's call, Zane perked up at once. H
