Celia’s voice was full of jealousy. She wished she could tear Wynn into pieces. Wynn was not a local. She moved here from another city for some reason and found a job as a CEO, replacing her title as the most beautiful career woman. “Yes, Miss. Knox Rosa said they’ll take action tonight,” the butler replied. Celia was very vicious. She did not want Philip or Wynn’s lives. She just wanted to destroy them. There was nothing happier than watching her enemies suffer in misery for the rest of their lives. Meanwhile, in the Johnston family’s yard. Martha put on makeup and got dressed in branded clothes. After putting on her shoes at the door, she yelled at Philip, “I’m going out.” Philip simply nodded without a word. As the door closed, Philip felt a bad premonition. However, he could not tell where this feeling came from. He could only rub his chest and circulate the energy in his body. An hour later, Philip cooked Wynn and Mila’s favorite dishes. He looked at the time
Mila was very nervous. She listened to the noise around her quietly. “Say, Biggie, both mother and daughter are quite pretty.” “I think so too. It’s a pity that the boss wants them whole. Otherwise, we could have our way with them first.” Although Wynn could not see them, she could roughly guess some things through their conversation. “I have no money. I’m from a normal family,” Wynn said calmly. “Hehe, save your breath. We didn’t kidnap you for money.” Wynn frowned upon hearing that. Although she could not see anything, she noticed some things through the smell in the air and the various sounds. They had been taken to a place that smelled of grass. It should be a wilderness with lush greenery. “Mila, don’t panic. This is just a game. Do you remember what I told you before?” Wynn comforted Mila, trying to keep her calm. Mila nodded and comforted Wynn innocently too. “Mom, don't worry. I’m not afraid. We'll be safe. Dad will save us very soon.” The kidnappers laugh
Philip quickly immersed his thoughts into Verge Tower and began to read through the books. His idea paid off. He found a spell specifically used to find people or objects in one of the books. Philip required specific tools for the spell, but it was too late to buy them now. He ran into the room and found a brush and red paint in Wynn's study. Although the effects would be greatly weakened, it was the simplest method. Philip found some clothes that Wynn often wore and laid them on the table. He put some paper over the clothes and drew the spell according to the picture in the book. Although he had never done this before, he was a former level five pseudo holy being, after all. It was not difficult to master these things quickly. Very soon, he made several charms. He tossed a charm in the air. The charm started burning. The ashes fell on the clothes and pointed in a direction. A few words were written under the arrow—'Western suburbs warehouse!' Philip grabbed the car key
Celia drove at top speed, eager to get to the warehouse and torture Wynn. At this moment, an electric car sped past her and disappeared in front of her. Seeing an electric car daring to challenge her, Celia wanted to step on the accelerator and catch up, but the road was very busy. The SUV she was driving was too big to navigate flexibly. “Damn it! Even electric cars can act so arrogantly on the road now! Don’t let me catch you or I’ll smash your shabby electric car into pieces!” Celia cursed angrily. The driver of this electric car was none other than Philip. He could not care less about road safety at this moment. It was a 20-minute journey, but Philip arrived in ten. Seeing the large warehouses in the western suburbs, Philip was annoyed. He used another charm to find Wynn’s location. The third warehouse in the second row! Philip stopped the car and rushed to the location indicated by the charm. As he approached the warehouse, he saw two men smoking at the door.
Biggie and Deuce clutched their heads in pain, rolling on the ground and screaming. They felt as if their heads were about to explode. “What’s going on?” Tre and Quattro heard the commotion outside and ran out. They immediately saw Philip standing there with their two brothers lying on the ground. The two brothers were not that weak, but they were beaten up by this guy. Tre and Quattro became solemn. “Who the hell are you?” Tre gulped and asked seriously. Philip did not reply but stepped forward and threw another punch. Quattro shouted for him to watch out, and a wall of earth appeared in front of Tre. Philip's punch hit the wall, which shattered upon impact. Quattro spat a mouthful of blood and fell heavily to the ground. He stared at Philip fearfully. “Quattro, are you okay?” Tre screamed as he ran forward. Quattro could control the earth. He used his strongest move in desperation just now, but it was easily destroyed by the opponent. After using the Chimera God
A supposedly easy mission had turned out this way all because of this practitioner! “Why can't I steal your business?” Philip sneered. Since the other party regarded him as a competitor, he would go with the flow. “Since you like to steal other people’s mission, are you Blood Rosa in the organization?” Tre’s attacks closed in rapidly as he questioned Philip loudly. Philip shuddered in disgust upon hearing this name. Why would a man call himself by that name? Although he was repulsed by the name, he admitted it honestly, “That’s right.” Hatred flashed in Tre's eyes. “No wonder the employer will be here soon.” He roared angrily and launched his strongest move. He turned his whole body into a sharp weapon and attacked Philip. Philip dared not let his guard down. He jumped up and tapped the wall with his toes. He flew into the air, appearing behind Tre. His move caught Tre off guard. After Tre’s transformation, his weak point was the back of his neck. Philip pinched
Mila hugged Philip and chattered incessantly, but Philip could tell that she was scared out of her wits. Wynn felt a little guilty. She did not expect that she would be kidnapped and had to wait for Philip to rescue her. “Phil, times have changed.” At this moment, she deeply felt the helplessness of ordinary people. If she were a practitioner, this incident would not have happened. “Times have indeed changed. Energy has revived. You can't remain as an ordinary person.” Philip had planned to lead them on the path of practice. Even if Wynn did not take the initiative to ask about it, Philip would have guaranteed it. “Dad, I want to practice too! My teacher said that practitioners can fly in the air and turn clouds into rain!” When Mila was in school, her teacher spoke a lot about practice. Mila could no longer contain her excitement and wanted to learn to become a practitioner. However, the only way to become a practitioner now was passed down within the family. “Da
It was unusual for Philip to appear here! “Why are you in such a hurry?” Philip asked with a smile. Celia took a step back and leaned on the car. “Mind your own business!” Touching the long whip on her waist, she felt a little more confident. She was an expert at the peak of the first zone. Why should she be afraid of a loser? Wynn and Mila walked out. Wynn had heard the kidnappers' conversation earlier and knew that their employer would be here soon. Despite that, Wynn never expected that the person who kidnapped her would be Celia. “It’s you?” Wynn frowned. She and Celia were considered business acquaintances. They were both female CEOs in Rhineville and should be helping each other. She did not expect Celia to do this to her. “Why not? You’ve been a thorn in my side for a long time! As CEOs, we're meant to keep every penny in our own pockets, but you try every means to give your money away! I’m very pissed off at you just because of this!” Celia disliked Wynn
“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
