“You went too far!” Leonard angrily tore off the certificate from his forehead, crumpled it into a ball, and tossed it aside. He had never been humiliated so openly in his life. Who was Philip to insult him like this? “I can tell at a glance whether you’re a member of Kronos or not.” Philip took advantage of Leonard’s anger to pull his clothes off. His clothes were already a mess, so Philip easily pulled his shirt off. The tattoo of the word Kronos was exposed in front of Philip. “Can you still deny your identity when you already have their membership tattoo?” Philip was very interested to see how this guy would defend himself next. “You…” A killing intent welled up in Leonard. This guy had found out the secret of the Oncidium Guild. When he was about to make an unexpected strike, there was a flash of lightning. Leonard froze in place as if he were restrained by something. With every struggle, he felt pain all over his body as if struck by lightning. Leonard w
Meanwhile in the Oncidium Guild, Leonard collapsed on the steps of the mountain entrance in a miserable state. He went to great lengths to make his way back. Leonard gritted his teeth and looked in the direction of the city with a killing intent. “If not for the fact that I have to return to pass on the information, do you think I’d escape in such a miserable state? Philip Clarke, I won’t forget you.” Leonard was not a fool. Although he was strong, he could see from the lightning restraint that Philip was not weak either. Instead of fighting to the death with no outcome in sight, it was better to return to the guild and inform his father that their dealings with Kronos had been exposed. The members patrolling the mountain soon discovered the unconscious Leonard and carried him back to the guild in a panic. The leader of the Oncidium Guild, Shawn Yarra, saw his son’s battered appearance and punched out in anger. The top of the mountain collapsed, and the ground shook. “W
Among them, only Aslan remained calm as the only one who knew what Philip had done. “Philip, what happened?” Montel asked Philip, nervous and worried. At this time, Preston received a call and ran out in a hurry. Everyone was focused on Philip and did not pay attention to Preston, who left in a panic. Seeing everyone’s concern, Philip had no choice but to tell the story. Everyone scowled upon hearing that the python yesterday was lured here by humans. They wished they could kill the people from the Oncidium Guild. “The Oncidium Guild and Kronos,” Delia whispered nervously. Philip guessed that Delia probably knew something. “If you know anything, feel free to speak your mind. I have a grudge against Kronos. If you can give me some useful information, I’ll be grateful to you,” Philip said evenly. He believed that Delia must know something. Delia was torn. She knew that things could not be concealed much longer. “I do know something, but Kronos isn’t a force normal p
The people of Kronos were very cunning. Even Delia only knew the location of a few branches. Completely destroying them was out of the question. “There’s no rush. Killing the key people in Kronos will somehow weaken their power.” Philip wanted to deal with the Oncidium Guild first. This force had been exposed to the public and had a head-on confrontation with Philip. Using them to threaten Kronos was the best choice. At this moment, Aslan ran over in a panic. He was covered in bloodstains and looked a little pathetic. “Something bad has happened. The boy from the Stein family is gone!” Aslan said anxiously in a panic. Earlier, he sneaked out for a cigarette while everyone was chatting and saw Montel being kidnapped. The other party moved so fast that by the time he reacted, it was already too late. Aslan only managed to hit the other party once. That guy probably used some secret method to vanish so quickly. Anger flashed in Philip's eyes. He did not know who took Pre
Philip was moved by Delia’s suggestion. Sure enough, she was of great help. After everyone made their arrangements, Delia quickly led them to the Oncidium Guild. The Oncidium Guild was hidden deep in the mountains where no ordinary people could ever locate the entrance. “I can already tell at a glance that they're up to no good by putting the guild in such a sneaky place,” Aslan said in a huff with a cigarette dangling from his lips. Aslan looked down on such a heinous guild from the bottom of his heart. “Whatever. Let’s just fight our way up.” Philip waved his hand and quickly led everyone forward. Bolts of lightning descended on the people of the Oncidium Guild without any warning. The other party’s members were knocked unconscious by the attack before they knew what was going on. Philip did not kill them outright. The Oncidium Guild was not an evil cult where everyone was bad. Maybe they were just ordinary people who dreamed of being practitioners. Hence, Philip di
Unexpectedly, Preston turned his head away and ignored Shawn as if he found it insulting to speak to the leader of the Oncidium Guild. Preston was a smart guy. Although the other party had kidnapped him and was asking him to save someone, Preston would not get angry just for this. He would even think that this parent was very responsible. However, he noticed a familiar aura on Leonard. Preston carefully observed the injuries inflicted by lightning on Leonard’s body and found that the aura belonged to Philip. Clearly, Philip was the one who caused the wounds on Leonard. As Philip's loyal subordinate, Preston was less likely to treat this guy. He glanced at Leonard's injuries and shuddered. He wondered what this guy did to end up in such a miserable state. “I’m telling you to treat him!” Shawn was furious that this brat was ignoring him. Shawn would have killed this brat if he were not a powerful and talented doctor. “Most of his injuries should be self-inflicted.”
Preston found it amusing that this guy was so stupid. Putting aside the fact that he used a secret method to escape, how did he injure his manhood? Even a miracle doctor could not save him. “Stop standing there! Save him!” Shawn pulled Preston to his son with worry in his eyes. Preston knew that now was not the time to act tough in front of this powerful opponent. He pretended to check Leonard. He knew that Philip would soon discover that he was missing and would come to his rescue. He had to buy time now. When the time was ripe, he would work with Philip to deal with these brainless losers. “Your son's condition is quite serious. Let me take a closer look to see what's going on.” Preston tried everything to buy time. In short, he would not treat Leonard. Shawn was troubled. He knew that Leonard would not recover so easily and kept cursing the person who hurt his son. Shawn did not pay any attention to the lightning outside. He did not feel any energy fluctuatio
Aslan stepped forward with disdain. These people were not worthy of Philip’s attention. “Does this thing belong to you?” Aslan tossed the token to the floor in disdain. Joseph looked at the token at his feet and trembled in fright. As members of the Oncidium Guild, they knew who this token belonged to. “So, are you here to cause trouble?” Joseph said angrily. Putting aside the token, they had to deal with these enemies first. “Hand Preston over.” Aslan beckoned with his hand, and Joseph felt a force pushing him toward Aslan. Before Joseph realized what was going on, he was already in front of Aslan. “Hand him over without pulling any tricks.” Aslan raised his brows, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Philip stood behind Aslan and stared at the elders. Although they were not weak, he was not an uninformed fool either. He alone could easily deal with them. Joseph shuddered in fright at Aslan’s oppressive threat. “John, report this situation t
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
