This was the Clarke family, so full of pride and dignity! This remark also showed the status of the Clarke family on the Starfall Continent. However, Philip also knew that he should not rely on the Clarke family too much. It was true with the development of Big Dipper Palace too. After all, it was not the same Clarke family on Earth. This Clarke family must have many talented descendants. If Philip was too conspicuous, some people in the Clarke family would definitely be unhappy. If that happened, many people in the family might target him. He was a smart man, so he would not return until he was strong enough. “I understand,” Philip said softly. Zenith waved his hand. A burst of energy surged from his palm and pushed Philip out of the yard. Following Zenith’s cue, Philip turned around and left. … The mayor’s residence. After the incident with Sinastro, no one was in the mood for the so-called talent competition. Jurgen announced the end of the event and left w
Dane knew very well that if he killed Philip outside, the news would definitely reach Zenith’s ears. If that happened, Dane would die for sure. Thus, he could only make a move inside. He could even shift the blame to others to protect himself. Frowning, Palmer said helplessly, “Are you sure you want to do this? I don’t think it’s good for us.” Dane fell silent. His clothes fluttered in the breeze, and his silhouette looked a little forlorn. After a long while, Dane sighed. “It’s a choice made out of desperation. The ancient Heavenly Court is not comparable to the royal families, after all. Let’s decide later.” Dane shook his head with a grimace and left. Palmer had no choice but to follow suit. … In the yard of the residence of Lookout City's mayor where the White Marsh royal family was located. An old man was leisurely drinking tea with Adonis and the others. Adonis asked cheerfully, “Sir, you certainly know how to enjoy life. Aren’t you afraid that something wil
This world was relative. If there was a holy path, there should be a demonic path. If there was light, there should be darkness. Adonis suddenly realized something. He stood up and bowed to the old man. “Thank you for your guidance, sir.” The old man ignored Adonis and closed his eyes as if he were sleeping. Adonis said no more and left. … Lookout City, in a hotel reserved by Big Dipper Palace. A woman appeared downstairs. She looked up at the hotel with a trace of hesitation in her eyes. A moment later, the woman gritted her teeth and walked into the hotel. As soon as she entered the door, two people with cold eyes appeared in front of her. “Who are you? This hotel has been reserved. Irrelevant people are not allowed to enter.” The woman tried to calm herself down. Her voice was steady with a hint of tremor. “I’m looking for Verdant.” The two people were startled. After they exchanged a glance with each other, one of them nodded. The other person asked, “What
Philip looked at the man coldly. A smack was heard before Philip could respond. The man was sent flying dozens of miles away while a slender hand slowly retracted. Bonnie had made a move. “How rude,” Bonnie said. Bonnie turned to Philip, still cold and aloof. Philip raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “How domineering.” Bonnie said, “You can speak your mind.” He smiled without another word. Meanwhile, many people around sized Philip up. Philip raised his eyebrows at this scene. “Are they members of the Shank family?” Bonnie glanced at those people and said, “You can say so. You must have a purpose for entering the ruins this time. What's your main purpose?” Philip's heart skipped a beat. He wanted to find the Nine Lunar Resurrection Herb, but he had never mentioned it before. The other reason was for his mother, but Bonnie should not know about this. Why did she say that he had a purpose? His eyes darted around as he said with a smile, “Who doesn’t
A handsome young man with gentle eyes and a strong presence flew over from a distance. He quickly landed next to Philip and Bonnie with a smile on his face. Philip was about to speak but stopped upon seeing this man. Bonnie looked at the man and said, “You’re here. This is the practitioner I told you about.” The man glanced at Philip, and a glint of surprise crossed his eyes. “The laws of five elements? You actually managed to do this at nine stars. I have to applaud your courage. Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to progress further in the future?” Philip was a little shocked. It was terrifying that this person could tell the laws he practiced after just one glance. By right, only a holy being could tell at this stage. However, this young man could do it so easily. Philip’s shock grew more intense. The man smiled and said, “Let me introduce myself, I’m Byron Shank. The Shank family has a technique that allows us to perceive your general thoughts and the laws
Philip frowned. What reason could it be? Bonnie continued, “You might be that person.” Philip was taken aback and asked in bewilderment, “Which person?” Byron said, “The one who can get the heritage and secrets of the ancient ruins of White Imperial City in the end. But you don't seem to want the heritage, because it looks like you can get something more important there. Or in other words, something better than the White Emperor's heritage.” Byron smiled gently and calmly as if this outcome would definitely come true. However, Philip shook his head with a chuckle and said, “I don’t think so. Do you really think the heritage of White Imperial City can be obtained so easily? What about those indomitable pseudo holy beings? Would they let me have it so easily? Besides, tens of thousands of people in White Imperial City will be competing for it.” Byron and Bonnie smiled but said no more. At this time, an old voice said, “It doesn't matter who gets it. We're not after the he
Zenith fell silent. Philip chuckled and said, “In that case, I agree to work with you, but I won’t tell you immediately after I get it. I’ll only do it once I leave the ruins and am safe. You also have to tell me what it is!” Old Shank smiled at Philip. “No problem. Even if I tell you, you can’t use it if you take it. It belongs to the Shank family.” Philip nodded. “That doesn’t matter.” Old Shank pondered silently before he sent a voice transmission to Philip. “Young man, it’s a very important chapter in the Energy Discerning Technique that has been passed down in the Shank family. Without this chapter, we won’t be able to carry on with the remaining practice. If you can return it to us, the Shank family will help you when you need it.” Philip fell silent. The most important chapter in the Shank family's Energy Discerning Technique. Philip had experienced that technique first-hand when it was displayed by Byron and Bonnie. If they could achieve greater heights in that
Old Shank was dumbfounded at Philip’s shameless remark but simply shook his head in silent agreement. Then, Old Shank looked at Zenith. “Let’s have a cup of tea.” Zenith smiled and nodded. “Let’s go.” The two vanished from the spot and reappeared high in the sky. A tea table appeared in the air with a cloud beneath it. Two stools made of clouds slowly took shape. Old Shank waved his hand gently, and a purple teapot steaming from the spout appeared on the tea table. Two cups stood next to the teapot. “I just got the teapot and tea leaves. Let's give them a try." Without further ado, Zenith sat down and took a sip of tea. After closing his eyes and savoring it carefully, he opened his eyes and looked at Old Shank in surprise. “Enlightenment tea? How did you get this?” Old Shank smiled, pointed downward, and said, “I found an enlightenment tea plant in this city. I got this teapot there too. I think the White Emperor used it before.” Zenith took another sip of the tea
