Terence sobbed without care of his image when he felt the pain in his head. Not only did he lose all dignity this time, but the prestigious image he finally established was also destroyed. Who would dare to humiliate the Harrod family? No one! Therefore, Terence always maintained this image even though he was just riding on the family’s coattails. His false image was finally ripped apart today, and no one bothered to put on a show with him. Philip would never give Terence any respect like other practitioners would. This commotion quickly reached Denzel’s ears. He was shocked that Philip was so bold! Denzel rushed to Philip’s location when he thought of Terence’s miserable state. Denzel reached the scene and found that Terence had passed out, but it was unknown whether it was from anger or something else. Gasping, he said, “What’s going on? I hope you can give me a valid reason for this.” Denzel wanted to safeguard Philip and decided to soften his tone to give Ph
“Since my uncle is here, your doom is near.” Terence was very confident in Denzel. He believed that his uncle would never harm him, so upon seeing Denzel, he resumed his arrogance after getting over his initial fear. Only Philip and Denzel knew the conversation between them. “Can I kill him, then?” Philip put his sword on Terence's neck and asked tentatively. The arrogant Terence panicked again and stopped speaking. He had no idea what was happening. How did things turn out this way? “What do you mean? What are you doing?” Terence turned to Denzel nervously, asking for help. However, he realized that Denzel was no longer next to him. Denzel was standing here just now. Why did he suddenly disappear? Terence burst into tears. He could not figure out what was going on. Philip sneered and said, “Can’t you tell? Your uncle has given up on you. He sold you out just to get me to join his team!” Philip’s remark gave Terence a great blow. Terence was horrified to hear th
Everyone could already imagine how the Harrod family would deal with Philip next. In this situation, no one dared to watch the excitement. Denzel approached Philip with a trace of reluctance in his eyes. “You didn't have to do that, you know.” Denzel had decided to take Philip under his wing, so his attitude became different when speaking to Philip. “Come with me. I’ll think of a way to take care of this problem for you.” Denzel’s solution was very simple. He planned to find a powerful practitioner with no background to take the blame. This matter would be resolved once someone took the blame. Philip said thoughtfully, “I never said I wanted to become your subordinate. What are you thinking?” He looked at Denzel with a smile on his face and killing intent in his eyes. He really wanted to kill Denzel. He knew that Denzel was the person responsible for the killings at the diner. Terence was nothing but an empty husk. Although he flaunted his arrogance, he was actual
Denzel was afraid that his sister would find out about his involvement in this incident. “Tell me what’s going on,” Lilian said solemnly. After much deliberation, Denzel decided to twist the facts around. “This is what happened.” Denzel painted a positive image of himself and described Philip as a heinous bad guy. “To protect the dignity of the family, Terence challenged Philip without my knowledge and was killed! By the time I arrived, it was too late.” Denzel even wiped away tears of pain. Lilian was stunned to hear that something had indeed happened to her son. She knew that something was wrong when Terence’s life plate shattered. Her guess was now confirmed. Something had happened to Terence! “Why didn't you kill Philip?” Lilian asked ferociously. Denzel pondered for a minute before telling her about Philip. He had the idea of recruiting Philip when he learned about Philip's talent. Even though Philip killed Terence and played him out, he could not bear
A figure appeared in front of Lilian. “You haven't contacted me in so many years. What’s up?” the man said sullenly, seemingly unhappy with Lilian. Lilian said in a huff, “Your son is dead! Someone killed him!” The man’s shadow trembled and burst into a rage. “What did you say? Terence is dead? Who did it?” They had just spoken to each other two days ago. Terence wanted to seek his help to compete for the position of the family’s successor. He had promised Terence to lend a helping hand at that time. How did things end up like this? “What happened?” The man was about to have a breakdown. He never dreamed that his son would die so tragically. This was a disrespect to him, Paco. “I’ve roamed the streets for years, and no one has ever dared to mess with me. It seems that they've set their sights on my son!” He was extremely angry, and his face began to change. Upon a closer look, his face looked like an eagle. Lilian told him about Philip. She felt that Terence
Philip made this especially for Fennel. After discussing this topic earlier, Philip paid special attention to his physical condition and concocted something just for Fennel. However, he never had a chance to let Fennel try it. Now that Fennel had brought it up again, Philip seized this opportunity to let him experience the excruciating pain. Fennel blushed and said, “Is this really necessary?” A look of shyness flashed across his face before he composed himself. “I’ve never taken a bath in front of another man. Why don’t you go out?” Fennel was straight and liked women, so he could not bring himself to undress in front of another man—not even his best buddy! “Fine, I’ll leave you to it, but you have to endure it no matter how painful it gets. You’ll discover the miraculous effects after that,” Philip reminded Fennel and poured the powder into the water. Fennel nodded but did not take Philip’s words seriously. It was just a bath. How bad would it get? He knew that th
When Aslan and the others were tortured badly back then, Philip even recorded many videos of them. This was proof of their dark history, and he could make good use of these videos to get back at them one day. Everyone in the motel was puzzled and looked at the room where Philip and Fennel were. Although the owner of this motel was a practitioner too, he was just a novice in comparison. Philip and Fennel were the true masters. “I’m surprised that our two guests have such preferences. Go on, bring them some things. Don’t let them tire themselves out!” the owner said helplessly. He could not interfere with the guests’ weird habits, but this was too big of a commotion. Philip also realized that Fennel was making too much noise, so he quickly set up a soundproof barrier to prevent others from hearing his screams. It was indeed a little embarrassing for him to torture a stoic man into this state. While Philip stood waiting at the door in boredom, a waiter appeared with seve
Fennel had absorbed all the ingredients in the potion, leaving the water in the bathtub clear. After Fennel got dressed, Philip calmly opened the door. He tossed aside the things given by the waiter. The quality of the clothes was not very good, so he had no intention of wearing them. The wound treatment cream was of no use either. “How are you? Do you feel better?” Philip said with a smile, confident in his potion. Fennel nodded. Since this was his first time taking a bath, he clearly felt the changes in his body. “It’d be great if I could do this all the time!” he said from the bottom of his heart. Fennel sensed the improvement. If he could groom some talents with this potion in batches, he would own a large force in no time. A practitioner who could withstand attacks with their physical body was simply unheard of. “Not only has your body gotten stronger, but your energy has also been purified. Your internal organs, muscles, and veins have been fortified,” Philip
