Chapter 414
Chapter 414
Julian was beside himself with anger. Although he could tell that Sebastian cared very much for Lana, he did not dare to risk it. He only had one grandson, and he could not afford to lose.
He had no choice but to send someone to retrieve the items.
Everything Sebastian had asked for was a priceless treasure. The Lennons only had one century-old fungus and one century-old dragon root. As for the century-old white herb, they had to find something to trade with the Lynches in order to get it.
Before long, the three spiritual herbs were delivered.
"Young man, I've already brought the things you wanted. Now you can let him go, can't you? "Julian asked, suppressing his rage.
"I'm afraid that once I release your grandson, you'll attack me," Sebastian said, smiling.
That was exactly what Julian had been planning to do. He could not allow Sebastian to take the items.
Besides, Sebastian had abused Luke so much that Julian could never let him leave the place alive.
However, he said, "Don't worry about that. I'm a man of my word. As long as you let Luke go, I'll let you leave safely."
"I'm sorry, I don't trust in your character," Sebastian said.
Lorenzo and Gideon burst into loud laughter. Elsa giggled too.
The others in the crowd wanted to laugh as well. However, they did not dare to do so, so they suppressed their smiles.
Anyone who knew anything about Julian would know how sly he was. He often went back on his word, and his promises were less than hot air.
Believing in his promises would be like believing that pigs could climb trees.
Julian's nostrils flared with anger. "What else do you want, then?"
"I want you and everyone from the Lennon family to stay at least a hundred feet away from me. Everyone must swear on their descendants. If they attack me, they'll be cursed with no descendants!" Sebastian said.
Julian was incensed, but he had no choice but to endure it and do as Sebastian said for the sake of Luke. He led the other members of the Lennon family in making the oath, and then retreated backward.
Not everyone believed in oaths, but there were still those that did. It would have some effect. When the Lennons had all retreated at least a hundred feet away, Sebastian finally breathed
a sigh of relief. He removed his foot from Luke's face.
He picked up the neatly packaged spiritual herbs and got ready to leave.
At that moment, Luke suddenly attacked. He scrambled up from the ground, picked up his spear, and thrust it at Sebastian's back.
It was an ambush, and he had moved so stealthily that no one had noticed what he was doing.
However, Sebastian seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He stepped to the left to dodge the spear, and turned swiftly to grab it.
Luke was shocked. He immediately let go of the spear and retreated backward in fear.
Sebastian smirked, and he turned the spear toward Luke as he threw it at him.
He had imbued the spear with strength and spiritual energy, and it seemed to rip through the air at an astonishing speed.
Luke hastily leapt up to avoid it.
He pulled out a set of throwing knives from his waist and filled them with energy before flinging them at Sebastian.
At that moment, an old lady suddenly jumped onto the Destiny Stage from the opposite side.
She held a walking stick as she rushed toward Sebastian. A terrifying energy seemed to shake the very air.
Shockingly, she was a middle-stage divine grandmaster, and she was very powerful.
It was Rita Lennon, the fourth elder of the Lennons. She was Julian's older sister.
When Sebastian had stepped on Luke, she had hidden herself under the Destiny Stage on the other side.
However, she hadn't found an opportunity to attack, so she had not appeared until that very moment.
She was determined to maim Sebastian with one blow.
She wasn't planning to kill him, because she felt that letting him die at once would be too kind. She wanted to maim him, and take him back to torture him slowly.
Sebastian wasn't afraid at all. He caught the throwing knives easily and flung them back.
