Chapter 907

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Trevor eyed Elton warily and frowned. "I wonder what Mr. Reynolds has in mind to change my uncle's decision?"

"Possession," Elton said in a raspy voice.

What? Trevor was startled initially, then skeptically frowned. "Mr. Reynolds, what era do you think we live in? Those old superstitions... They're not very credible."

Elton gave Trevor a cold smile, then stretched out a thin finger and lightly touched Trevor's forehead.

Trevor suddenly felt darkness engulf his vision, and everything around him turned into nothingness in a blink.

He felt as though he was trapped in a pitch-black space surrounded by countless orbs of demonic fire forming a giant face–Elton's face.

Elton's voice made Trevor feel a chill down his spine.

Were there really souls and spirits in the world? Were all those legends he'd heard actually true?

At this moment, a deep fear took root in Trevor's heart. He yelled loudly at the ghostly face, "Let me out… I can give you money, and I have a lot of money. Just help

    Trevor nodded repeatedly as he listened, a look of joy spreading across his face. "Mr. Reynolds, rest assured, I will carry out your instructions."An hour later, Jace and the others watched Trevor's departing figure as they exchanged knowing smiles.In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.Early that morning, Sebastian and Rosalie arrived at the CEO's office of Arctic Snow Group.According to their previous agreement with Theodore, today was the day for the official signing between Northstar Pharma and Arctic Snow Group.However, by noon, Theodore had yet to appear. There was no sign of activity from Northstar Pharma, either.Rosalie couldn't help but voice her doubts. "Sebastian, do you think Northstar Pharma might have changed their mind and decided not to sign with us?"After all, partnering with Arctic Snow Group meant offending the Bashmore Group. It was natural for the Northman family to have reservations.Sebastian shook his head slightly. "No, Theodore was very clear

    Thank you, Mr. Ballard, but the consultation fee must still be paid. I know this small amount is insignificant to you, but… It's all I have right now," Zane said with a sheepish smile. He carefully placed the check on Rosalie's desk.Sebastian didn't mind and took his Healer's Needle, giving Rosalie a few instructions before following Zane to the Northman family residence."I've long heard of your great reputation, Mr. Ballard. You truly live up to your name! You have an extraordinary presence," Zane praised continuously, elevating Sebastian throughout the journey, though Sebastian simply smiled without responding.As their car approached a secluded estate, Sebastian suddenly felt all the hairs on his body stand on end."Stop the car!" Sebastian ordered abruptly.Zane quickly instructed the driver to stop, then frowned and said, "Mr. Ballard, there's still a long way to go."Sebastian shook his head slightly. He got out of the car and began scrutinizing the estate from a distan

    "There wasn't any problem originally but with the addition of the two trees and these stone lions, this place has turned into a place like a cemetery!" Sebastian pointed out."Look carefully at this estate and the hill behind it. When connected, what does it resemble?" Sebastian gestured."A-A corpse?" Zane, prompted by Sebastian, took a closer look from a distance. When the landscape was connected, the estate resembled the head of a corpse, with the two trees and stone lions appearing like protruding fangs!The estate had effectively become a place filled with negative energy.That "corpse" was exactly where the villa stood within the estate."Plus, the two mulberry trees at the entrance. I suspect they were healthy when planted, right?" Sebastian observed.From a distance, the two mulberry trees appeared to be withering.It was evident that they were transplanted in the wrong season, which failed to take root, and the harsh winter had killed them."A few days ago, a geomanc

    Trevor huffed coldly and said, "What's the matter, Sebastian? You were a traditional medicine doctor a few days ago. Are you a geomancer now?"Did you fail to deceive everyone with your anti-cancer prescription? Is that why you're trying to deceive Zane by saying that you can check the geomantic properties of our house?" Before Sebastian could say anything, Zane hastily explained, "Trevor, sometimes it's just safer to assume that it's true. I think of it as spending some money to buy my peace of mind." Trevor scoffed. He turned and walked toward the car. As he went, he said to Zane, "I'll go and see Uncle Theodore with Mr. Reynolds first. Aunt Marianne and Aunt Meredith will be coming later too."Trevor got into the car and sped off."Have you ever met the man he was with just now?" Sebastian asked Zane as he watched the Benz drive off. "Met him? He was the one who made us plant the two old mulberry trees at our front door!" Zane looked darkly in the direction that the Benz ha

    "Oh dear. I wonder when Theodore will get better.""That's right. Seraphina, the family needs to have a leader. We have such a huge family, and we're running a big company as well. There are so many things that need to be taken care of, and someone needs to take the lead.""Why don't you and Zane recommend Trevor as the temporary chairman?""Trevor and Theodore have been taking care of Northstar Pharma for so many years. This way, we'll avoid having no one at the helm of the company while Theodore is sick. Once Theodore gets better, he can resume the position of chairman."As soon as Zane walked in, he overheard his aunts and uncle trying to persuade his mother, Seraphina. Zane clenched his teeth and strode into the living room.He said icily to his aunts, "I've already asked Mr. Ballard to come. He can even bring a late-stage cancer patient back to life. It'll be easy for him to cure Dad."Theodore had once mentioned to the Northmans that the prince of Ytalia had sent someone to

    Sebastian ignored Marianne and Meredith and looked at his watch.Ten minutes had already passed. Hadn't the Northmans' bodyguards buried the Crystal Dragons yet?At that moment, one of the bodyguards came to the living room and whispered a few words in Zane's ear before handing him something black."Mr. Ballard, look at this. They dug this out from under the foundation on the west side," Zane said quietly. He handed the black object to Sebastian.Sebastian took the object, which looked like a piece of coal. He clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Elton before saying to the room at large, "Who says that those who practice medicine can't know about geomancy?"He continued, "Traditional medicine originated from the philosophers of the Way of Wisdom. If I don't know about the mystic arts, then how can I treat patients, especially when it comes to patients with strange illnesses like Theodore?""Ballard, you're just a charlatan! Get out of here right now! You're not welcome

    Sebastian was using the technique known as the Seven Star Seal, which was a mystic formation. As long as he could seal off the gate, it would frighten off any evil spirits. The three remaining Ovalia Tokens that he had would be his trump card against them."What should we do, Mr. Reynolds?" Trevor looked worriedly at Elton as he watched Sebastian walk quickly up the stairs."Hmph! He's still wet behind the ears. How good can he be? Don't worry," Elton said, staring intensely in the direction of the staircase."Trevor, what are you talking about?" Seraphina had been in a daze for many days now. Although Trevor and Elton were speaking so plainly, she couldn't understand what they were saying at all."Oh, we were just talking about Uncle Theodore's condition, Aunt Seraphina. Mr. Reynolds means that Ballard probably won't be able to do anything. "When he comes out later, we've got to get rid of him quickly so that Mr. Reynolds doesn't get angry," Trevor said condescendingly to Se

    There was a large bed placed in the middle of the room, which was several feet wide. Theodore's eyes were sunk into their sockets as he lay on the bed. Although it had only been a few days since Sebastian had last seen him, he seemed like a completely different person.Not only were his eyes sunken in, but even the skin on his face had turned completely black.He was now as frail as an old man. Although his hair was still black, he gave the impression of being very old. Sebastian came to the bed and looked down at Theodore. He clapped the last Ovalia Token he held over the top of his head. "You're such a busybody!" an elderly voice echoed in the air.As the token covered the top of Theodore's head, another rush of dark energy shot up. Theodore looked as if he was in a deep sleep, and his body convulsed violently."Aargh!" A desperate scream pierced the air, sounding as if it came from the depths of hell. Sweat beaded on Sebastian's forehead. It was the first time he was u

    "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

    Sebastian threw his head back in laughter. He strode forward, standing in the center of the hall, and said coldly. "Ungrateful? How could you have the audacity to say such a thing?"Even if I'm surrounded by enemies, you Ballards can forget about making me submit! It's just death, after all. If I even blink, then I won't call myself a man!"Everyone there stared at Sebastian."How dare that brat be so cocky? If he's not punished, it'll be a disgrace to our family rules!""He should be given the death penalty!""It'll be a disaster if we just let him be, and it'll only bring trouble for our family. Please give the order, and we'll kill him at once!"The entire hall was in an uproar. Even Preston, who had been speaking up for Sebastian and Samson, sighed in resignation.Since Sebastian had already made his stance clear, Preston couldn't help even if he wanted to.Sebastian had roused the anger of everyone there, and Arnaud had closed his eyes and wasn't saying anything. He was cl

    Sebastian was just about to step forward when Samson hastily waved a hand at him and said, "Sebastian, the grudges of the Ballard family from over ten years ago have nothing to do with you. Don't get involved!""But—"Sebastian's gaze sharpened as he turned to look at Milton. There was an icy glint in his eyes. Samson shook his head slightly at Sebastian. The Ballard Estate had at least ten experts at the eighth level of the Eldoria realm. At Sebastian's current level, trying to fight them would only bring him big trouble."Sebastian, one must learn how to adapt to the situation," Samson whispered into his ear using voice projection. "Today, I will exchange my legs for your and Whitney's freedom. Think of it as a payment for what I owe you and your mother."Sebastian clenched his fists tightly. He hated himself for being too weak. He couldn't even protect his own family in a place like the Ballard Estate, where many experts were gathered.However, he would never allow anyone to

    "Do you accept it, Samson?" Arnaud asked harshly when he saw that Preston hadn't said anything else. He turned to look directly at Samson.Samson smiled bitterly and turned to look at Sebastian before raising his head to look at Arnaud, who was sitting high above them. He said, "Uncle Arnaud, I was the reason for everything that happened. I wish to ask you not to trouble Sebastian.""What are you talking about?" Preston was agitated. He stood up again and yelled, "There must still be an investigation about who was right and who was wrong. Why should they break your legs?"As he spoke, his eyes blazed with fury. He looked at the thin old man and said furiously, "Milton, you old bastard! How can you be so shameless at your age? Tell me! Did you embellish the story to Arnaud?""Uncle Preston!" Samson stopped him quickly and sighed slightly. "Forget it. It's my fault for bringing such huge trouble upon our family back then."I admit that I have let our family down. Since imprisoning m
