Verdant fell silent, and his eyes flickered. Although he realized the benefits Philip could bring to them, he was reluctant to hand over the force just like this. Anyone would find it difficult to adapt from being a leader to becoming a follower. “Can I think about it?” Verdant took a deep breath. Nigella glanced at Philip and then at Verdant. After a moment of silence, Nigella said, “I think it’s better for you to give the rights to Philip.” With that said, Nigella turned around and left, feeling a little exasperated at the same time. Verdant said those things in front of her, a member of the nine royal families. Obviously, Verdant wanted to get her to join the group. After all, the White Marsh royal family was the most mysterious among the nine royal families and also the strongest. At least, that was the case in terms of talents, except that the White Marsh royal family never fought over anything. This time, however, the White Marsh royal family could not take the
Philip nodded and said, “Within three days, I’ll ask Holy Polo to join Big Dipper, and I also hope you can gather everyone within three days. I want to hold our first meeting.” “No problem.” Verdant nodded without hesitation. After a brief chat, Verdant left. Philip walked to Nigella’s room. He had to figure out what was going on with his chimera imprint. Soon, Philip arrived at Nigella’s door. He knocked lightly and asked, “Nigella, are you free now? I need to ask you something.” “Yes, come in,” Nigella said flatly. Philip entered her room without hesitation. In the room, Nigella was practicing with her eyes closed. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Philip. “What’s up?” Philip ignored Nigella's attitude and asked, “My chimera imprint has changed, but I don't know if the change is for better or worse, so I want to ask you if you know what’s going on.” After that, Philip told Nigella all about the chimera imprint in detail. In Philip's opinion, Nigella was a r
1,800 miles outside Asteroid City, a huge pit filled with magma appeared in front of everyone, and the surrounding air was full of ashes. The exotic fire had finally appeared. People rushed over from all directions, stood on the sides of the magma pit, and stared at the flame in the middle of the pit that was about to emerge from the ground. The flame looked like a specter, exuding a hallucinating vibe. People with some knowledge about it said, “Spectral Fire, ranked 14 on the exotic fire list.” “One of this exotic fire’s abilities is to confuse people’s minds. Once used, the person being attacked will definitely be affected by the exotic fire and have hallucinations.” “It’s a relatively powerful exotic fire.” Suddenly, two people went through the crowd and knocked away a person blocking their way. “Haha, this Spectral Fire is mine now. You people should get out of my sight or don’t blame me for making a move!” The person who spoke was rather burly, his eyes full of d
A chuckle came from a distance. “Truman, you think very highly of yourself. Do you think this place belongs to your family?” Everyone turned in the direction of the voice. It was a member of the Beelzebub royal family by the name of Renault, ranked 48 on the nine-star list, ten positions higher than Truman. However, no one could predict the result if they fought. Hearing Renault’s remark, Truman restrained his arrogance slightly. Truman’s attitude depended on the other party he was dealing with. If it was someone from the other royal families, Truman would most likely not bother. However, the person in charge of his family was also a member of the Beelzebub royal family, so Truman would still display his courtesy. “Renault, why are you here? Do you need the exotic fire?” Truman frowned. He was not an idiot, or he would not have chosen such a unique path. Renault was not a fire elemental practitioner, so there was no need for him to appear here. Renault shrugged and
Lumi looked at Renault and said, “We have no interest in stealing the show. We have a mission here. If you’re smart, Renault, you should leave right now or we can’t guarantee that we won't kill you in the end!” Lumi was a cold and aloof woman with a pretty face, so pretty that one might be lost in her appearance. Renault frowned. He realized that these two people should be here because of Philip. Philip’s importance increased in Renault’s mind. If Philip was a lousy person, why would the Beelzebub royal family ask him to come here? Similarly, why would the ancient dragon and the white tiger royal families ask Portia and Lumi to come here? Although they were women, they were far stronger than most men. Many people even thought they had the ability to enter the pseudo holy list! Given enough time, they were likely to reach level nine of the pseudo holy tier! Thinking of this, Renault took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He looked at the two seriously, and his arrogance ex
Verdant smiled and said, “Although you don’t have the right to speak to me, since you did, I might as well explain it to you. The pseudo holy beings are not here to compete for the exotic fire but because they heard rumors that someone is going to target the Astral Master of our Big Dipper Guild. They won't intervene in this fight. They just want to see if Lumi and Portia can survive under the Astral Master’s hands.” “Astral Master?” Lumi and Portia were startled. They had no idea who this Astral Master was. They could not help but look at each other with doubts in their eyes. Could it be their mission target? However, how did that person command such respect from Verdant? Why were those pseudo holy beings willing to stand up for him? Thinking of this, the two shook their heads. That should not be the case. If so, they would not be the ones to turn up today. After all, if that person could deploy pseudo holy beings, their families should have sent pseudo holy beings to take
Everyone’s eyes focused on Philip. When they noticed that Philip was only in the late stage of nine stars, they were shocked and frowned. Could someone in the late stage of nine stars be compared with Lumi and Portia? The two of them were the strongest here. If they attacked with all their strength, few people here could beat them. Meanwhile, some people started whispering. “Who is this guy? How can someone in the late stage of nine stars become Verdant's so-called Astral Master?” “No idea, but Verdant and the others can’t be letting him fight those people, right? He’ll die if he faces Lumi and Portia!” “I think so too. Even if it's a one-on-one fight, I don’t think he can beat any of them. I even think that the fight will be over very soon.” “He’s just a young and ignorant guy. I know him. His name is Philip Clarke. He fought Nigella a few days ago. After they used their last trump card, Nigella threw in the towel. I don't think this guy can beat Lumi and Portia.” “So
The two looked at each other. Lumi exhaled and said, “What’s the bet?” Hearing this, Philip smiled and said, “What about betting on our lives? If I can defeat you, you’ll obey me from now on. Even if I want you to leave the royal family, you can't disobey. If you can defeat me, I’ll listen to you unconditionally. As you can see, I have Verdant and the others behind me. This is not a small force. No matter which royal family we join, it’ll be a great boost to you.” Philip's smile grew brighter. With Verdant and the others as stakes, he refused to believe they would not take the bait! Sure enough, Lumi's and Portia’s expressions changed, and ripples spread in their eyes. These people would be a great help, indeed. With them around, their status in the family would rise steadily, and they would definitely get more resources. Thinking of this, Lumi could hardly contain her delight. “We accept your bet, but you need to watch out. After all, you’re too weak in our opinion!” The
