Travis was oblivious to the blood marks on his body. He continued to scratch incessantly as it was the only way to alleviate the itch.
“Wait a while. It’ll stop itching soon. Just grit your teeth. I’ll go have a cup of tea now, and I’ll be back to check on you later,” Sebastian said with a cold smile before leaving the room.
His reason for leaving was because he thought of Lord Cyclops. Lord Cyclops died so tragically that even if Travis was tortured to death, it wouldn’t ease his hatred.
“Merlin, Nelson, Elena, it’s your turn next,” Sebastian said with a gleam of cold light in his eyes. The next moment, he closed his eyes, and a strange energy wave instantly radiated out.
In his mind, a vivid three-dimensional image instantly appeared, showing the surroundings including what lay behind him. Even ants underground floated into his view.
This was because he had unleashed his spiritual senses, which in simpler terms meant his mental prowess.
Most practitioners lacked this ability. Even divine grandmasters like Merlin and Nelson couldn’t manage it due to insufficient mental prowess.
The cultivation method he practiced not only honed martial skills but also cultivated spiritual senses. This allowed him to enter the Divine Realm, where he could wield his spiritual senses.
Perceiving the environment was the fundamental role of spiritual senses. It provided clarity beyond what eyes could discern, including views of areas obscured by obstacles.
However, penetrating objects with spiritual senses proved challenging. For instance, while he could sense a radius of about 100 feet around him, underground, he could only feel up to three feet deep.
Sebastian had initially sought to experience the wonders of spiritual senses, but he unexpectedly made a discovery.
He sensed Rainey lying bound on a couch in a nearby building less than 60 feet away. Her mouth wasn’t gagged, but she made no cries for help. Her father had restrained her, leaving her without hope of rescue.
Her expression was devoid of life, her hollow eyes lacking tears. However, her sorrow ran deeper than mere grief itself.
“Rainey, I’m sorry, but I have no choice but to let you suffer,” Benjamin said apologetically. Though he favored Travis, Rainey was still his own flesh and blood. He didn’t want things to come to this.
“Mr. Hyde, I’m handing her over to you, but remember, she’s my daughter. Don’t mistreat her,” Benjamin warned firmly. He had heard stories about Nelson’s cruel treatment of women, leaving many of them broken and ruined.
It was less a warning and more a desperate plea, considering the Lloyd family’s inferior standing compared to the Dragonheart. Even if Nelson were to harm his daughter, Benjamin was powerless against him.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be very gentle.” Nelson smirked, rubbing his hands together with a lecherous gleam in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, Benjamin was infuriated to the point of wanting to slap him senseless.
Just as Benjamin was about to leave, he noticed someone standing at the doorway.
“Dr. Miracle, aren’t you supposed to be treating my son? What are you doing here?” Benjamin asked curiously.
“The first phase of treatment has concluded. I was just wandering around and stumbled upon quite the spectacle,” Sebastian replied with a hint of amusement.
Benjamin’s face flushed with shame. “Dr. Miracle, let’s discuss this outside,” he suggested hastily.
“Help me!” Rainey suddenly cried out to Sebastian.
“Do you want me to help you? If so, I’ll need a good reason,” Sebastian asked, feeling intrigued.
“You should that you were my first. If you save me, you’ll be my last,” Rainey pleaded.
