Claus ordered his servant to take Philip inside for treatment before he said to everyone, “Mr. Leigh, calm down. Young Patriarch Clarke’s opponent was someone from the Five Elements. The envoy from the Fire Element was seriously injured too.” Claus sighed and added, “Young Patriarch fought across the realms this time and seriously injured the opponent. It really caused quite a stir.” A battle across the realms? Everyone was dumbfounded. After Claus explained everything to them, they breathed a sigh of relief but were filled with worry too. “Why did the Five Elements appear?” Fennel asked with a frown. He knew a bit about the Five Elements. They were regarded as a bunch of ambitious people decades ago. After several big figures joined forces later, they were driven to the stargate to guard over the Mirror Seal. For decades, the Five Elements had disappeared from the secular and disciple world. Unexpectedly, they reappeared again. Claus frowned and said, “According to t
The news that Dragon King Well had offended the young patriarch of the Clarke family and gotten his manor destroyed, and subsequently got rescued by a mysterious person, quickly spread throughout Mystic City. Everyone in the city panicked because many families had offended Young Patriarch Clarke too. Now, the well-being of the Third Dragon King of Mystic City was unknown, which was enough to deter everyone. Everyone speculated what was the next step Young Patriarch Clarke would take. In Claus’ private villa, Philip and the others were chatting. “Young Patriarch Clarke, your destruction of Windsor’s manor has spread throughout the city. All the patriarchs of the families who haven't left are panicking now.” Claus sat on the side and said, “The example you set is very good.” Philip nodded lightly and said, “I want to thank you for your hospitality these days. I’ll leave the rest of the things in Mystic City in your good hands.” Claus nodded and said, “Please rest assured,
Philip looked at Claus and asked, “Dragon King Motley, what do you know about the Five Elements?” After pondering for a moment, Claus said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, the Five Elements aren’t a simple force. Decades ago, the Five Elements were held in high regard in the secular world and the disciple world. All disciples in the world came from the Five Elements.” “What? All disciples in the world are from the Five Elements?” Philip frowned. Claus nodded and said, “That’s right. Before the development of the Nonagon and before the disciple world had stabilized, all disciples in the world were from the Five Elements and obeyed the rules and teachings of the Five Elements. The Five Elements was also the largest school of disciples in the country. However, the Five Elements opened the Mirror Seal at the stargate of Cochly Mountain without permission, intending to use the power of the stargate to strengthen their bodies. It caused the power of the stargate to leak through and led to a t
Philip frowned and stood up. Just then, the servant passed him something. It was a letter. A letter in this era? Why not a phone call? Philip opened the envelope and took out the letter inside. After reading a few lines, anger surged all over him! “Damn it! Silva Larson, you’re asking for it!” Philip growled angrily. Fennel and the others hurriedly gathered around and asked, “What’s the matter?” Philip tossed the letter to Fennel. Fennel glanced through it, and his eyes were also filled with anger. “This…” Fennel’s expression changed. Philip’s face was full of anger and cold killing intent. He said, “Let’s head to the Larson family today!” The content of the letter was very simple. Silva Larson, the head of the Larson family, had put Hogan, Cynthia, and the others under house arrest. What angered Philip more was that his grandfather was in critical condition, but Silva actually had his grandfather's yard surrounded and prevented Hogan and the others from visiting hi
After Silva finished speaking, Nash and Zayn next to him also said, “Silva is right. Now, the Larson family has to seek new development to survive in the chaotic times that will follow. Today, we gathered everyone to discuss and decide.” After Zayn finished speaking, the older generation of the Larson family looked at each other and discussed in low voices. Finally, the old man who spoke first said, “Patriarch, we want to see the grandmaster and ask his opinion.” Hearing this, Silva frowned as a chill flashed in his eyes. Then, he smiled and said, “Uncle Gene, the grandmaster is critically ill and is in no shape to see anyone. My words represent his opinion. As you know, the grandmaster misses Aunt Charlotte dearly. He once made it clear that he wants the Larson family to break away from the Clarke family and seek our own development.” Hearing this, the old man frowned, shook his head, and said, “I don't really believe that the grandmaster would say such a thing. I hope you can
Following that roar, a figure full of chills appeared at the door. In the hall, everyone looked coldly at Philip and the others as they walked in. Philip stepped in with a dark face. He glanced at everyone coldly before he looked at Silva and said, “Where’s my grandfather? Where’s Cynthia?” Silva frowned as a chill flashed in the corner of his eyes. Thud, thud, thud! In an instant, a team of fully armed guards from the Larson family rushed out and aimed their guns at Philip and his party. Philip just glanced at them coldly without paying any heed. Silva raised his hand and signaled the Larson family’s guards to step back before he chuckled and said, “I didn't expect Young Patriarch Clarke to come back from Mystic City so quickly. I thought you’d take a few more days.” Philip’s eyes were stern, and his mouth was grim. He said, “Silva Larson, don’t try to change the subject. I’m asking you where my grandfather is!” Silva’s face turned cold when he heard this. He said, “
There seemed to be a burst of icy killing intent in the air! Philip and Silva looked at each other and burst into anger. The other Larson family members dared not speak out at this moment for fear of causing unnecessary trouble. Nash stood up from the ground, and killing intent flashed in the corner of his eyes. He snorted coldly and said, “Philip, I advise you to leave here as soon as possible. You have no right to interfere in the Larson family's business!” However, as soon as he finished speaking, Philip sneered and said, “Oh, really? Let’s see what you can do to me, then.” Hearing this, Silva lost his patience and shouted, “I invite the three elders to enforce justice!” As soon as he said that, three elderly men walked in through the door. Chip Larson was one of them. The three elders stood in the hall and looked at Philip coldly. Chip, with his hunched body, said lightly, “Young Patriarch Clarke, it's been half a month since we parted. I didn't expect to see you ag
“Junior, don’t be too cocky!” The elder immediately looked very angry. Suddenly, tremendous pressure fell on Philip! It was the pressure at the peak of the seventh zone! Anyone below that realm would be crushed to the ground under this pressure! However, Philip was different. He stood on the spot with dazzling chills in his eyes, staring coldly at the elder. The elder trembled. How could this be? Under the oppression of his aura, Philip showed no signs of being suppressed at all. Moreover, the other party seemed somewhat indifferent. What was going on? Immediately after, to everyone’s surprise, Philip waved his hand. An aura that was no less than that of the elder suddenly surged from him and rushed over like a tsunami! This aura nearly overturned the hall! Seeing this, the elder snorted and said, “Junior, do you think you can beat me? Dream on!” After that, the power of rules poured from the elder again, wanting to counteract Philip’s aura! However, at that
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
