Montel looked at Philip anxiously. “Young Patriarch, you have to believe me! Ivan is a big fat liar! Everything will be over if you believe him! This shameless old man is really one of a kind!” Montel cursed angrily without caring about his image. The grudge between him and Ivan was already set in stone. Ivan sneered at Montel, unfazed. He simply wanted to buy time and wait for help to arrive. Ivan was not sure if Philip had other reinforcements, so to be on the safe side, he would wait for the Practitioner Society to deal with Philip. Even though Ivan was an expert in the seventh zone, he was apprehensive when facing the former young patriarch. “That’s enough. Stop it.” Philip stopped Montel. “Ivan’s reinforcements should be here now. If not, I won’t wait any longer.” Philip stood up and smiled at Ivan. Ivan froze, shocked that Philip guessed his plan. He did everything in secret. No one should know anything about it, but Philip did! It was enough to prove that
Montel coughed awkwardly, astounded by these fangirls. Philip was speechless too. He had imagined many scenarios. Maybe he would be arrested on the spot. Maybe the Practitioner Society would insult him before taking him away. Maybe other various undesirable situations might happen. However, it never occurred to him to see a bunch of fangirls. Philip facepalmed in embarrassment. He did not want things to turn out this way! The man in the lead did not share the same thoughts. He was very unhappy with their reactions. “So you're the demonic practitioner. Surrender at once!” he said gruffly. Montel frowned in disdain. Even though he did not drink much water in the past several days, his voice was not that gruff. This guy sounded like a quacking duck, and his voice was very unpleasant to the ears. “Sarah, don't be fooled by the faces of these demonic practitioners. They look handsome and charming to create a false impression!” the guy said seriously, trying to destroy th
“Are you guys trying to defend him?” Ivan asked solemnly. He was very unhappy with these fangirls, so he placed all his hopes on Gruffy. Gruffy looked very gloomy seeing that his junior had taken a fancy to a man as soon as she arrived. Hence, he was certain that Philip was a demonic practitioner. No matter what background he had, there was no way he could leave in peace today. Jealousy could turn someone into a green-eyed monster. Over the years, his junior never had the hots for him. She never cherished the man beside her but chose this loser instead?! What a waste! Gruffy walked over briskly and stared at Philip seriously. “Did you use a demonic technique to retrieve another person’s memories?” Gruffy asked solemnly as if he was conducting official business. Seeing this scene, the other women seemed anxious. They knew very well that Philip was absolutely innocent. In an era where appearance took precedence over justice, they were undoubtedly torn. “No.”
Everyone felt ashamed and wished they could kill Philip to vent their anger. Even the fangirls were angry. In comparison with idolization, they were more concerned about their reputation. If Philip damaged their reputation, they could not establish their authority. The Practitioner Society could not allow anyone to mess with them, no matter how handsome the person was. Sarah was very nervous. She was very worried that something would happen to Philip, but when she saw Philip giving Captain Lawrence a good beating, she was full of anticipation. This man was very hot-blooded and did something that she had wanted to do for a long time. Many people were full of gloating and half-heartedly tried to stop Philip from beating Lawrence. However, their weak attempts had no effect at all. Philip hit Lawrence harder instead of stopping. After venting all his anger, Philip finally stopped. Ivan looked at Philip, dumbfounded. His hands were trembling slightly. He sensed tha
Captain Lawrence looked at them seriously. He believed that Ivan would not lose. After all, he worked with Ivan quite often in the past. He had been in charge of this area for a long time and often colluded with Ivan to torture other practitioners. If Ivan was not so vicious, they would not have gotten so many resources to build a villa on the mountain. Captain Lawrence was no good either! Philip could tell at a glance that they were in cahoots with each other, but since he was an outsider, he could not compete with the locals. Montel grabbed some food from the table and started eating without qualms. As a practitioner, he knew he was useless without any strength. “Young Patriarch, these people are simply rotten to the core. They have a drug in the warehouse that will render someone unable to use their abilities temporarily after injecting it into the bloodstream!” Montel said with indignance. He was unable to put up a fight because he was injected with the drug. Ot
Ivan sneered and held a silver syringe in his right hand. However, his movement was well hidden, and no one noticed it at all. Ivan knew that he might not be able to defeat Philip if they fought head-on, so he had to use some means whenever possible. Philip slashed Ivan with the sword. Ivan laughed at Philip’s inexperienced movement. “Haha, Philip, if you can defeat me, I’ll tell you everything!” Ivan was very confident that no one was stronger than him. “It’s a deal.” With that said, Philip appeared next to Ivan. Ivan quickly reacted and attacked Philip. Very soon, Ivan backed away in defeat. He could not believe that he was no match for Philip. Ivan knew that Philip must have concealed his strength or he would not be having such a hard time. “Impossible. You’re a loser. Why are you so strong?” Ivan was nervous, wishing he could escape at once. Philip could fight beyond his level and suppress Ivan! After a brief confrontation, Philip discovered Ivan's sho
The Tampa family watched this scene, dumbfounded. They had encountered a powerful enemy. There was no hope for them this time. Many people regretted being traitors and lamented themselves for receiving Montel in the first place! If they had ignored this jinx, maybe they would not be so miserable now. Ivan was very strong, but he could not exert his full strength due to his fear of the Clarke family. Hence, all hopes were on the Practitioner Society. “Ivan, you really don't know what’s good for you.” Philip sneered, not taking Lawrence seriously at all as if he was just a clown that could be ignored. Now that Ivan was crippled, Philip was not worried that the Tampa family would pose any threat to him. In hindsight, something seemed wrong with the Practitioner Society. For them to send so many people after him proved that there was a connection between them. Something must be going on between the two! At this point, Philip did not have a good impression of the P
Normally, Lawrence would not summon his pet companion out for long periods. His individual ability was not very strong, but his pet companion could really make a difference. That was why Philip knocked him away so easily. “Since you’re the descendant of the Clarke family, let me do justice and wipe out their only remaining descendant!” Lawrence said menacingly. He did not plan to reveal his trump card, but Philip pissed him off so much that he refused to let Philip off. “Captain Lawrence, this is not all his fault. I think the Tampa family has a problem too,” Sarah spoke up for Philip. As a woman who valued appearance, she felt Philip was in the right. Lawrence was angry that someone in his team would side with outsiders at this time. “You’re a member of the Practitioner Society. Why are you speaking for outsiders now?” Lawrence was furious. He had liked Sarah for a long time, but his long-term pursuit of her annoyed her instead. Lawrence took it for granted that Sar
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
Yule felt very smug after seeing everyone’s reactions. Clearly, these people could only rely on him to take care of this problem. “Since you’re so curious, let me explain. Indeed, someone is controlling the situation behind the scenes. She can easily control the beasts with her ability. However, I don’t know the woman’s identity. Maybe she’s a powerful being or just an ordinary person. Who knows?” Yule's subordinates were the ones who told him what they saw that day. “I know that woman’s appearance, so I know what to do. You don’t have to worry about it.” Everyone glanced at each other with a grim look, wondering if they should believe Yule. After all, Yule knew something they did not. “Hehe, I just wanted to tell you my plans, that’s all.” Yule wanted to take control of the initiative. The elders and people in charge looked worried. They knew exactly what Yule wanted. “I want a certain authority. Of course, it should be higher than my father’s limit. As you know, I’ve al
Compared to the money they earned at Deadly Arena, the accommodation fee was nothing. Therefore, many people chose to stay in the living quarters provided by Deadly Arena and thought the environment was quite good. The people of Deadly Arena knew about the crisis they were facing. Something felt wrong, so they had to pay attention to it. “Don’t you find the beasts acting strangely this time? They didn’t seem interested in our things but simply left after giving us a warning.” “Yeah, I think something is wrong too. There must be a secret behind it. We have to figure it out.” The people in charge of Deadly Arena gathered for a meeting over this major incident. Yule looked at everyone with disdain as if he thought they were worried over nothing. “The beasts obviously recognized our strength, so they backed away. Stop worrying over nothing.” Yule had always thought highly of himself and looked down on everything. Hearing this, everyone scowled and wished they could teach Yule
“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an
Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra
