Justin was stunned. He had no idea where this person came from! He felt that Philip looked familiar as if he had seen him somewhere before. “Who are you? Why are you here?” he frowned and asked. This guy must be here for him. Philip was taken aback that Justin did not recognize him anymore. He chuckled and said, “You seem to have forgotten me, Justin.” Justin was surprised and panicked that the other party could call out his name. He tried hard to recall the identity of the other party but to no avail. In that case, he might as well kill him! “I was wondering where to find my next target, but someone appeared right at my doorstep. Seeing how young you are, the quality of your blood must be very good.” He took out a dagger and approached Philip. As a practitioner, he was not afraid of a stranger who popped out of nowhere. Philip felt Justin’s energy fluctuations and was surprised. Like the old man who was captured, Justin surged with dark energy. More terrifyin
When he was in school, he was an average person with no money, few friends, and no girlfriend! On the contrary, Philip came from a good family, was excellent in character and academics, and was always surrounded by girls. He felt everything was so unfair. Why could Philip live such a life while he had to muddle through his life? After graduating from college, he met a teacher and started practicing with his help. Over time, however, he discovered that his practice was different from others! Others practiced righteous techniques while he practiced dark energy. He had to keep it under wraps and could not tell others that he was a legendary practitioner. Due to that, he became even more jealous of Philip. “You've lost everything! How can you fight me? I’m an expert in the third zone. As a practitioner of dark energy, I’m totally capable of crushing so-called good people like you!” He moved his hands and made a sign. Powerful dark energy appeared and stabbed Philip’s
“My teacher and the Skater family will definitely come after you! You don’t know anything about the real Skater family at all!” Justin roared with all his might and unwittingly revealed some secrets about the Skater family. In Philip's impression, the Skater family was all bark and no bite. The Stein family often intimidated them intentionally or unintentionally, and the Skater family always stepped back. Philip even thought they were useless losers. Unexpectedly, they did so many things in the dark. In hindsight, Philip felt a lingering fear. If the plans were implemented successfully, the whole city would turn into a bloodbath. Over the years, Justin had used human blood to improve his strength and was able to enter the third zone in just a few years. This proved that dark energy would be a huge temptation to practitioners. “I’m just an ordinary practitioner with dark energy, but my teacher has touched the threshold of becoming a demon! One day, we’ll definitely stand at
Justin was a little daunted when the prey he went to great lengths to capture had escaped. Moreover, he and Philip were facing each other. They were the only ones left in the basement! “Philip, I've realized my mistake. In fact, I didn’t really mean to go against you. My resentment is directed at everyone.” He knew that his excuse was very lame, but he could only make up stories at this stage. After all, he had targeted many rich and handsome people over the years, just none as strong as the Clarke family. “Are you saying that you want to leave this place alive?” Philip did not make a move and just looked at Justin with a smile. In Justin's opinion, Philip's smile was extremely terrifying. Trembling, he nodded. “On the account that we were former classmates, please spare my life. I’ll serve you with all my heart from now on!” Philip sneered at Justin’s declaration. He was already so cowardly when his life was threatened. How could Philip expect his loyal servitude? “S
“Did I say I was going to let you go? I was just joking around with you.” Philip smiled, took out the dagger, and stabbed Justin in the throat. Justin was dead before he could utter another word. Seeing his body in a pool of blood, Philip sighed loudly. He sorely realized that his strength was too weak. If he had the strength at his peak, he would not have been so cautious when dealing with this small fry. He searched on his body and found a small note. Officer Megan Herr had once given him a note, which he rejected, but she sneakily stuffed it into his pocket anyway. Philip pretended not to notice and forgot all about it. Unexpectedly, it played a role now. Philip took out his cell phone and dialed the number on the note. “Hello, are you that dumbass who got locked up in the box?” Megan froze at the sound of Philip’s voice before jumping in excitement. However, she was still annoyed by his remark. “Dumbass locked in a box? Well, how can I help you, Mister?” M
Numerous dried corpses were piled in the corner, and there was a huge pool filled with blood in the middle of the basement. A dead man covered in blood lay on the floor, his right leg obviously broken. Strangely enough, the words ‘I am the murderer’ were written in blood next to him. Megan composed her emotions and pointed at this dead guy as she said, “After investigation, this person is the murderer. Let's deal with this quickly and write a report. The recent frequent missing homeless people in the slum is all his doing!” Although Megan had no idea what was going on, she was smart enough to put the pieces together after seeing the situation in the basement. Megan was shocked to solve so many unsolved cases one after another. Whether it was the missing children or homeless people, they were major cases that stumped them for a while. They were lucky enough to solve two major cases in a row. “Boss, how on earth did you find this place? None of us has ever been to the slu
Philip wanted to deal with the Skater family, but he knew he could not act rashly due to his current situation. He contacted his student in name to send some herbs to the Johnston family house. Preston was very intrigued by Philip’s request and volunteered to deliver the package in person. Then, he found an excuse to stay. However, Philip did not bring the materials into the house but went to the empty house next door. Montel gave the key to Philip before he left. He said he wanted to find other subordinates for Philip, who did not stop him. “Teacher, what are you doing?” Preston followed Philip and watched as the latter sorted through the ingredients. Although Philip's practice level had dropped, his pill-making skill was not affected. It took Philip a while before he recalled some low-end pill recipes. Unfortunately, he only knew a few of those. Philip searched through Verge Tower expectantly but failed to find any books on pill-making and could not help feeling
“Teacher, are you sure you want to use a pressure cooker to make pills?” Preston gulped, feeling that Philip was joking around with him. Philip nodded. Without other tools on hand, he could only use a pressure cooker to make pills. Preston was doubtful of Philip’s actions. He could not help feeling that Philip was kidding him. “Good luck, Teacher,” he said. Preston hid in one corner. Preston had a hunch that this so-called pill would definitely cause an uproar. Philip poured all the ingredients into the pressure cooker according to the recipe in his mind and used his energy to stir the mixture in the pressure cooker. The ingredients turned into powder, and Philip added mountain spring water to turn the powder into a liquid. After an hour of brewing, the liquid became thick. Philip used his energy to form the mixture into little pills. Preston watched this scene in disbelief. He was surprised that his teacher succeeded. He thought his teacher was kidding, but the f
