Chapter 719

Auteur: Wendell Mayhew
At Janover's Department of Defense.

In a heavily guarded office, a dozen elderly men with gray hair and dressed in military uniforms were seated. Each bore stars on their shoulders.

They were an assembly of generals.

A stern-faced elder with a square jaw and an air of authority wore a military green uniform adorned with five gold stars. His mere presence commanded respect.

He stood in front of a massive screen, with his hands clasped behind his back and expression grave as he watched a constantly flashing red dot on the electronic display.

"Celestial?" The elder's face darkened as he stared at the flashing dot on the screen. "Send a team to investigate what's happening."

"Yes, sir." A soldier promptly left the conference room.

Meanwhile, at the Ballard family estate in Janover, the entire manor was perched atop a mountain and exuded magnificence.

The manor gave off a majestic and awe-inspiring atmosphere, with the entire mountain belonging to the Ballard family in Janover.

    It was terrifying indeed. Zephyr was a Supreme Grandmaster, yet Sebastian killed one with just a finger."He's crazy!" Stephen screamed in terror.The remaining four Supreme Grandmasters were also horrified, their scalps tingling as they frantically tried to escape in different directions. They needed to survive. All they could think of now was survival. Facing off against a Celestial was a complete dead end.However, before these four Supreme Grandmasters could flee, a flash of golden light suddenly appeared before them!Following that, strands of golden ribbons encircled the entire hotel building."It's the Celestial Light Formation!""Celestial Light Formation!"The four Supreme Grandmasters were filled with horror at the sight of these light ribbons. If one were to look down from high above, one would see the entire hotel building wrapped in a golden light array.Strands of light ribbons, adorned with cryptic runes and patterns, encircled and enveloped the entire struct

    Stephen was terrified. He sat on the ground, trying to crawl backward as his voice trembled with fear. "Sebastian, what are you doing? I'm the son of the Beckard family! If you dare touch me, my family won't let you get away with it!""Is that so? I'd like to see how your family plans to handle me," Sebastian replied coldly while stepping forward.As Stephen watched in fear, Sebastian lifted his foot and stomped down on his knee.The sound of bones shattering echoed through the hotel lobby."Ahh, my leg, my leg!" Stephen screamed in agony. His right leg was now a bloody mess, with shards of bone protruding through the skin."Bastard! Sebastian, I'll kill you! I swear I'll kill you!" Stephen shouted.His threats were met with Sebastian's foot moving to his other leg."No, no… Ah!"Stephen watched in horror as Sebastian stomped on his left leg. Another sickening crack followed, shattering the bone.Blood pooled around him.Stephen was utterly terrified now. His eyes filled with

    Then, these guests all looked toward the head table in unison. Seated at the head table was Stephen's father, Kendrick Beckard. His brow furrowed deeply as he asked in a solemn tone, "What happened?"A steward handed his phone to Kendrick with trembling hands. Frowning, he looked at the video on the phone, his eyes suddenly bloodshot with fury as he roared, "Stephen? Where is this? Where?!" Kendrick demanded loudly, shaking the entire Beckard Manor.The steward stammered, "The Galaxy Hotel…""Damn it! Who dared to do this to my son?" Kendrick bellowed furiously. "I will tear him to pieces!""Bring him here! Gather the 3000 Beckard family desperadoes, and follow me to the Galaxy Hotel!"Footsteps echoed loudly. Soon, all 3000 Beckard family desperadoes were assembled in the estate, dressed in white outfits with face masks and armed with long knives.The air was filled with a solemn and murderous intent.Kendrick strode out of the hall, his face dark with anger. He looked at

    Sebastian looked at the infuriated Kendrick and said, "Yes.""You're asking for death!" Kendrick roared.As long as anyone dared to harm his son, that person would have to pay the price no matter what."Kill him!" Kendrick commanded.Instantly, hundreds of desperadoes dressed in white, brandishing long knives moved to attack Sebastian. However, Sebastian remained calm and composed. With a serene expression, he asked, "May I make a phone call?"Kendrick's eyes narrowed at Sebastian's request. He raised his hand, signaling the approaching desperadoes to halt. Then, he fixed a cold gaze on Sebastian and said, "What, you want to call someone?""Something like that," Sebastian replied casually.Kendrick burst into laughter, filled with disdain and mockery. He sneered. "Fine, I'll give you a chance! Make your call! Tonight, I want to see who you can call upon to save you!"If the ones you call have weak backing, shallow backgrounds, or insufficient power, not only will you die, b

    After that, the members of the patrol division jumped out of the armored car and swiftly formed several rows. They were waiting for the last car to stop.The onlookers were shocked at the scene!"Oh my! What's the patrol division doing here?""They have the authority to act first and report later!""They weren't called here by that young man, were they? Would he be able to deploy them?"The crowd of onlookers were shocked. Even Kendrick's expression darkened and his brow furrowed. He was amazed. The patrol division? What were they doing here?Just as Kendrick looked on in confusion, the door of the last car opened. Chester Zinn got out of the car.When he saw Chester, Kendrick's expression changed drastically!Chester? He was one of the top three commanders of the patrol division. He had actually come personally!Kendrick's brow was tightly knitted. He turned back suddenly and looked at Sebastian, who was sitting impassively in his chair.Had he called Chester over?Cheste

    Chester thought for a moment and replied, "After your mother escaped from the Ballards, she once went to Steinberg and met someone there. She left a few things behind.""In Steinberg? Who did she meet?" Sebastian asked.It was probably the only person who had seen his mother.Chester's brow furrowed, and he said, "I haven't managed to find out. I only know that he has a nickname called, 'the Imp.'""The Imp?" Sebastian's expression darkened, and he frowned. Chester tried to placate him. "Things in Janover are complicated. The incident with your mother didn't just involve the Ballards. There were many other people, too. They're all hiding in the darkness right now."Your return has already drawn a lot of attention. Don't keep a high profile. I'm worried that they'll choose to attack you."Sebastian smiled, but his expression turned cold. He said, "We'll wait and see, then! I'd like to see who they are! They forced my mother to escape the Ballards and are the reason why I lost he

    The Slaughter Gods. They were one of the top three warrior associations in Dramon's underworld.They were like the International Assassins. All their members were highly skilled and ruthless warriors.Since the establishment of the Slaughter Gods, they had maintained a high mission success rate of more than 80 percent!They very rarely failed.Once Ashton had left, Kendrick stood at the door to the manor's main hall and looked out at the pale crescent moon. He said coldly, "Sebastian! No matter who you are, no matter how skilled you are, how can you survive when facing the Slaughter Gods?"…In a mountain range deep in Dramon, there was a dense jungle. In the jungle, there was a cluster of buildings that looked like an army base.A four-wheel drive stopped at the steel gates of the base.Ashton jumped out of the car.After he got out of the car, he made a call as planned. "I'm here."Very soon, two ape-like figures swung swiftly through the jungle like phantoms. They sudden

    Sebastian's expression darkened. He said a few words to Rosalie, left the convenience store at once and headed straight for Westville's Frost Lake.He could not make Whitney suffer on his account. That would cross the line for Sebastian. Westville's Frost Lake was located in a forest, and it was famous for how deep it was. The lake was several hundred feet deep, and its waters were as cold as ice. That was why it was called Frost Lake.A few years ago, a tour group had come to dive and bathe in the lake. Over ten people had died as a result, so the lake had been sealed off.There was still yellow police tape around its perimeter. It had once been a renowned tourist attraction, but it had now fallen into disrepair.Beside Frost Lake, there was a church. People had once come to worship there, but it had been abandoned because of the lake.Whitney was in the dilapidated church, and both her hands and feet had been bound. She huddled in a corner, her face streaked with tears. She

    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
