Philip had just reached the entrance of the cave when the water vibration caught their attention. “How many times have we told you that we don't need the hearts of merpeople now?” Hearing this voice, a trace of doubt flashed across Philip's face. According to the princess, the merpeople’s hearts were taken away by humans. However, it seemed that these water snakes had gotten the hearts of merpeople before. Philip did not leave but stood at the mouth of the cave. A huge dark green snake came out of the cave. “A human? You shouldn’t be here.” Although the dark green snake did not take on a human form, it could speak. “Are you saying that humans have been here before?” Philip asked the big dark green snake. Philip’s whole body was shrouded in energy, so his voice could be accurately transmitted. Sound was produced through vibration, but the medium of sound transmission was now water. The big dark green snake stared at Philip with big scarlet eyes and said, “So what?
Philip did not even wait for the flames to melt the ice. He shook his body and the ice simply shattered in an instant. The splintering ice cubes hit the reefs around, instantly crushing them to bits. At this time, several dark green snakes suddenly felt a burst of warmth. Before they even had time to react, Philip's transformed chimera claws grabbed all of their tails. Like swinging a lasso, he spun them around in the water. Following Philip's movements, whirlpools started to form in the water. However, it was done just with Philip’s brute force. He was in no hurry to get rid of the snakes. From their words, Philip knew that both the professor and the princess seemed to be keeping some secrets from him. He wanted to find out these secrets from these dark green big snakes. As they shrank into small black snakes coiled around Philip's arms, Philip smiled at them and said, “So? Will you behave now?” One of the little snakes raised its head and said to Philip, “We’re th
Philip immediately stood on guard. He did not want things to blow up in his face unexpectedly. To Philip’s surprise, although there was a lot of movement, nothing unusual happened. However, after the noises stopped and Philip relaxed, a hand suddenly grabbed his leg. An icy chill promptly spread all over Philip’s leg. In a split second, Philip’s leg was all covered in ice. The little black snakes that were coiled quietly around his hand raised their heads and bit Philip. If Philip’s skin had not been toughened up through the practice before, he might have fallen under these little black snakes. When he realized that these little black snakes were about to attack him, Philip exerted force in his hand and smashed the little snakes to the ground without hesitation. A burst of blazing white flames flashed over their bodies. Before the little black snakes could turn into those giant dark green snakes again, they were reduced to ashes mixed with the muddy water on the groun
Just when the man in black and the few snakes that had turned into children were stunned, sharp spikes made from earth protruded from the ground, which spread through the entire cave. Seeing this scene, the man in a black robe was shocked. The whole cave seemed to be under Philip's control at this moment. Rumbles sounded in the cave. The black-robed man turned pale with shock. At this moment, Philip suddenly appeared behind him. “Do you still want them to eat me now?” Philip had used the rules of space. Although he was not proficient in using the rules of space, he had no problem dealing with these big snakes. The blade of the Caelum Sword cut a boy in half, and blood spilled all over the floor. The little dark green snakes that had transformed into children were quite strong, but they had little combat experience. Thus, they were no match for Philip at all. Besides, they had always faced other underwater creatures, and this was the first time they encountered a h
Philip chuckled as he prodded the hilt of the Caelum Sword against the water elemental barrier. The menacing dragon head unleashed water elements too. The man in black's expression changed upon seeing this, but he could not get away in time even if he wanted to. At this time, the water elemental barrier became a battlefield between the black-robed man and Philip and also a battle of water elements. Philip and the man in black fought with water elements. Once the water element was controlled by Philip, the man in black would also be trapped in the water element barrier, which would then turn into a water prison for him, trapping him. “You actually have such a powerful water element that exceeds level 5S.” The man in black was originally a water snake, so he was extremely sensitive to the water element. His water element was a level 5S. Now that he was in an actual fight with Philip, he realized that Philip's water element had reached level 6S. “Of course, if I didn’t
The black snake was obviously upset at being controlled by Philip like this and kept smashing into the water element barrier with its body. “You killed my offspring and still dare to threaten me now. I’m telling you, I have many hearts of merpeople on my body. If you dare to let me out to fight you, I’ll kill you even if it takes everything.” Philip smiled and shook his head. The black snake immediately snapped. “What? Don’t you believe it?” Philip said, “Of course, I do. Because I believe it, I can't let you out. “I’ll just trap you here and keep you as a pet.” The black snake was taken aback by Philip's words. He obviously did not expect to get such an answer from Philip. A pet? The black snake immediately felt a great humiliation. “Let me out. I want to fight you to the death!” the black snake enunciated each word. Philip squatted next to the water elemental barrier, looked at the helpless black snake inside, and tapped the water element barrier lightly as he sai
The black snake had the strength equivalent to nine stars but could not display it. Regardless whether it was man or beast, they could not display their strength once the energy of the world was isolated no matter how strong they were. Philip had known this long ago, so he came up with this method. Coincidentally, the black snake chose to form a water element barrier right from the start, which was tantamount to shooting himself in the foot. “I give up. What do you want to know? Ask away.” Finally, the black snake surrendered. He could no longer withstand the attacks of these water dragons. Philip smiled and dispersed the water prison. The black snake was covered in injuries. He slumped on the ground, half-dead and powerless. Philip squatted down, patted his head, and said, “This is how you should behave. “Does the professor often feed you with merfolk from the merfolk kingdom?” Lying on the floor, the black snake narrowed his eyes as the energy of the world gathe
Philip was sent flying. Seeing this scene, the black snake was also a little surprised, but more than anything, he was feeling smug. “I thought this human practitioner is very strong, but he’s just good at playing tricks.” The black snake gave chase along the cave. However, when he came out of the cave, he found no sign of Philip at all. Philip had rushed back to the merfolk kingdom as fast as possible! He secretly mobilized his energy and made himself throw up blood. He also used his energy to rip his clothes apart. The protective armor on his body was also shattered. However, this was because Philip deliberately used that armor to resist the black snake's attack. At this point, Philip’s physical defense was already higher than this armor, so it did not matter whether he wore this armor or not. This also happened to become one of his acting props. After rushing back to the merfolk kingdom, Philip discovered that the professor was not in the laboratory. As for
Members of the Wagner family nodded vigorously, and even those who were not participating in the competition were excited. Everyone knew that they had to win, whether for the family or their personal honor. The young man taking part in the competition laughed smugly. As a grown man, how could he lose to a child? It would be too embarrassing if he lost! Defeat never crossed his mind, so he immediately sprang into action when the alarm rang. He launched a fierce attack without further ado, trying to end the fight quickly and show the child his powerful strength. However, when he charged at his opponent at full speed, the child was gone! The kid was nowhere to be found as if he had vanished into thin air. “You’re too slow.” A delicate voice sounded from behind him, and the child appeared in front of him. The guy was sent flying out of the battlefield with a kick before he realized what was going on. According to the rules, the fight would be over once one party died or was sent
Ronan quickly picked his opponent. He was surprised and wondered if Lady Luck was smiling at him or if the draw was rigged, but he actually picked the deep-sea merfolk right away. Although he wanted to teach them a lesson, he had to carry on with the act too. “Haha, this took no effort at all. Our opponent is Ronan!"Although Ronan is strong, we’re fully prepared this time. No matter how powerful he is, he’ll never escape our clutches!” The deep-sea merfolk sounded very confident, smiling brazenly as if certain of their victory. They had sent their strongest fighter this time. They had planned to reserve this person to deal with Philip, but they faced Ronan instead. Their contestants were not fixed in advance. Under unforeseen circumstances, they could choose a substitute. Therefore, they decided to assign this strongest fighter to face Ronan and Philip. This person’s name was Tangy. Tangy knew that he had to face two opponents, but he was not nervous at all. He hoped that h
“That’s enough. You may leave.” Ronan turned around and returned to Philip's side, unwilling to exchange more fake pleasantries with Cameron any longer. In his opinion, such empty talk was meaningless, and he did not want to say another word to that person. Philip smiled at Ronan’s indifference. “If you want to deal with the deep-sea merfolk, you need to make sure you don’t lose. Acting must be done wholeheartedly. Don’t let anyone realize that you’re acting,” Philip said to Ronan earnestly. Rabbit nodded vigorously. No one was better than him in acting. Ronan suddenly felt a little pressure. “Oh no, the pesky flies are here again.” Ronan frowned unhappily as the patriarchs of the families approached them. “I’m sure they're here for our wine!” Ronan did not want to sell the wine to them. Not to mention how much the wine had improved his strength, Ronan was a drinker himself. He would be left with nothing if they bought all his wine. “Ronan, we’re here again!” “You s
“Ronan, I know you’re unhappy with me, but the family is depending on you!” Cameron had to bite the bullet because he could not think of anyone but Ronan who could win the first prize. “Since I promised you, I’ll take part in the competition,” Ronan said calmly. However, Cameron could not help but feel something strange in his words. Ronan had come up with a plan after a discussion with Philip last night. Ronan was not in favor of helping Cameron because their relationship was so bad that it was not necessary for them to work together anymore. However, Philip had a different opinion. He was certain that the Claude family would put all hopes on Ronan, so he wanted Ronan to set them up. Ronan was not concerned about his reputation because he was not a hypocritical and superficial person. Hence, losing the competition meant nothing to Ronan. In that case, Philip did not want to miss this opportunity. Ronan would take part in the competition as agreed and try his best but witho
Of course, Philip knew that Nolly would seek revenge, but he was not worried at all. Philip had given Nolly the method to seek revenge before they left. Beating him in the family competition was a good way to take revenge. Philip knew that Nolly had accepted his suggestion and was probably thinking of a plan to deal with him. Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, Nolly patted his chest. “Don’t worry about it. I have a plan. Since they’re so arrogant, they should be ready for it. We were careless and almost fell into their trap!” Nolly was unwilling to admit that he was not as strong as Ronan. In his opinion, he was at a disadvantage because of his carelessness. No one raised any objection. Since their chief had decided, they just had to follow orders. “I have to say that Philip is quite arrogant!” a man who looked more normal said unhappily. It seemed that he had a different opinion about this incident. “Doffy, what are your thoughts?” Nolly asked curiously. Doffy w
Ronan was very pleased with the outcome. Nolly glared at Ronan. He never expected that Ronan would be so difficult to deal with. He had done his best but could not do anything to Ronan. He felt that Ronan was just toying with him without using his full strength at all. “It’s very late. Everyone should go back to bed. I know that the deep-sea merfolk is going to take part in the family competition. In that case, let’s settle this on the battleground. We can place a bet or something at that time. What do you think?” Philip suggested, and Nolly thought he had a point. More importantly, Nolly knew that he definitely could not beat Ronan now. In that case, he should stop for now and find a way to deal with Philip later. Therefore, he pretended to consider Philip’s proposal. “You have a point, so I'll agree. In that case, let's meet again on the battlefield. I look forward to seeing your actual strength!” Nolly waved to his men in panic, signaling everyone to leave with him. His
However, the commotion came from outside the door. It felt as if someone was trying to raze his house to the ground. When he was about to go out for a look, Sadie, the jinx, ran up to him. Seeing her, Cameron felt a bad premonition, and his heart skipped a beat. “Patriarch, the deep-sea merfolk are here, fighting with Philip and Ronan. What should we do? I saw Ronan fighting with them just now, and the battle is very intense. Ronan doesn’t care about us at all. How could he fight in the manor? He’s simply outrageous!” Sadie added fuel to the fire. Cameron thought Philip was fighting, but it turned out to be Ronan. He was a little disappointed. “It’s Ronan?” He rushed out in a panic, afraid that something might happen to Ronan. It would be fine if it was just a simple fight, but they would be in trouble if Ronan was hurt and unable to participate in the competition! Cameron had done so much. He would not allow anything to ruin his plan. Thinking of this, he was very angry. “
Nolly looked at Ronan in puzzlement, wondering if he was right in the head. Nolly was here to kill them, not to reminisce about the past. Why was this guy so affectionate? “What are you doing? Do you think I won't kill you? You’re hanging out with that murderer, which tells me that you’re not a good person either. I won’t let you off!” Nolly scorned, full of killing intent. “Oh!” Ronan hummed obediently, catching Philip off-guard. Philip started coughing. Ronan was quite a handful. “Since they're here, I’ll leave it to you. Make it quick.” Anyway, Philip had set up a barrier. No one would notice even if a big fight broke out, so they had nothing to worry about. Philip would not have bothered to set up a barrier if he had not been afraid of destroying the surroundings. “Of course, my barrier will only protect your mother's territory. I can’t guarantee that other places won’t be destroyed if you take them a little farther away.” Philip’s seemingly innocent reminder stoked R
“Go through that passage and try not to alert anyone. Just get rid of him quietly!” Nolly nodded. Since Sadie was giving him this convenience, he would not make things difficult. He led his people to the house. After getting Philip’s exact location, he just had to go there. Ronan was drinking when he felt that something was wrong. “Philip, I have a feeling that someone is coming for us and wants to kill us! That killing intent is very strong!” Ronan looked around warily. Since drinking Philip’s wine, Ronan’s strength had increased significantly. Philip and Rabbit remained calm as if they had already expected this. “Don’t worry about some troublemakers. I believe they’ll be here soon,” Philip said calmly. He swaggered into the garden and finally decided not to destroy this place after looking at the surroundings. After all, this was where Ronan’s mother used to live, a place of memorial significance for Ronan. He would probably feel bad if this place was destroyed. “I’ll
