Chapter 399
Previously, Sebastian had held back because if he died, no one would be left to save Bruce and Lana. They would have soon become the Lennon family's scapegoats.
But now, with someone else stepping in to rescue Lana, he was ready to take the risk.
Sebastian trusted Jeremiah for two reasons. First, he had no other options. Second,
Sebastian recognized Jeremiah. He was the future patriarch of the Lynch family, the leading family among the four major families of Phaedra Island.
Jeremiah was renowned as the most talented young man on Phaedra Island in a century. He reached the Divine Realm at 20, and by 27, his cultivation base was unfathomable.
Many believed Jeremiah had the potential to reach the Demigod Realm.
The so-called Demigod Realm was said to be the stage beyond the Divine Realm, making one invincible in the mortal world.
Those who reached it could wield extraordinary powers, such as killing from a distance and flying, making them god-like figures. This was why it had been referred to as the Demigod Realm.
However, the Demigod realm was almost mythical. It had been centuries since anyone had achieved it.
Although Jeremiah had reached the Divine Realm at such a young age, he was only thought to have a slim chance.
Moreover, Sebastian believed in Jeremiah because he knew Jeremiah was fond of Lana. Lana had told him this herself.
Therefore, it was likely that Jeremiah wanted to save Lana by using Sebastian to create a commotion at the Lennon residence.
So, although it felt like being used, Sebastian was willing to accept Jeremiah's plan if it meant saving Lana.
Sure enough, Jeremiah revealed a sly and triumphant smile as soon as Sebastian headed to the Lennon residence.
Jeremiah's presence was no coincidence. He had long wanted to save Lana but couldn't do it alone and against his father's wishes.
After hearing about the previous night's events, he had formulated a plan and waited nearby for Sebastian.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Even though Sebastian had disguised himself, Jeremiah's sharp instincts allowed him to recognize him as the protagonist from last night.
The Sanders and Lennon families lived only a mile apart. As the sun slowly rose, the time for the grand wedding procession arrived.
Luke wore a tailored suit as he mounted a majestic white stallion. Behind him, an elegant horse-drawn carriage awaited his bride.
While modern cars were readily available, the families chose to honor tradition with this timeless procession.
The wedding parade was a sight. The procession was followed by dozens of musicians, flower girls, and over a hundred attendants and security guards.
The procession's numbers swelled to over 500 people, including friends, family, and well- wishers. It was a spectacle reminiscent of the grand weddings of ancient princesses.
Onlookers, including guests and curious locals, lined the streets, eager to witness the celebration.
Luke rode at the head of the procession, flanked by two esteemed family Elders as they made their way toward the awaiting bride in a scene of joyous anticipation.
Sebastian remained patient. He waited until the procession was about 0.3 miles from the Lennon residence before making his move.
"Energy Slash!"
While blending into the crowd, Sebastian suddenly struck with a powerful attack to kill Luke in one blow. Everyone was horrified, and Luke turned pale with fear.
Two Elders leaped to his defense with swords in their hands as the sword energy was about to hit Luke.
These were the second and third Elders of the Lennon family, both middle-stage divine grandmasters with significant power.
