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
Philip was telling Fennel about his pills while stuffing bags of them into his arms. Since Philip made the pills, Fennel simply took them without further hesitation. Fennel was even thinking of locking Philip up just to make pills for him. “The Pill Guild of the reclusive world is worlds apart from the one in the secular world. The healing pills and energy replenishment pills they make are pretty good, but they can't hold one-tenth of a candle to yours!” Fennel was lucky enough to get some of their pills, but they were not very effective and were very expensive. However, the pills were very popular in the practitioner world. Someone was always willing to buy them no matter the price. Even Fennel had bought a lot. After all, injuries would occur anytime, and those pills could at least relieve the pain even if there was not much effect. Sometimes, one could defeat one’s enemy with just this slight advantage. Lacking this slight difference could make one regret for the r
Denzel subconsciously grabbed the thing from the air and saw a pill. “Where did I put that pill just now? I remember…” Philip's voice rang out, and Denzel vanished from the spot. He knew that Philip was looking for this pill. Although Denzel had no idea how the pill landed in his hands, he knew that they were talking about pills earlier. Philip had given Denzel a healing pill, but it was a defective product he made. No one would eat it even if he left it in his space, so he might as well give it away. Denzel was very excited about getting this pill and immediately left the motel. Paco chased after him in confusion, wondering what he was doing. When Denzel reached a safe place, he looked at the pill but found nothing special about it. He could not even tell what pill it was through its scent. Denzel cut the pill into two halves, and a strong herbal smell wafted from them. He finally knew the function of the pill. Before he could do anything, a strong gust of wind
Paco was puzzled and approached Denzel in his human form. “Why have your wounds disappeared? What treasure do you have? Can it resist injuries for you?” Paco asked curiously. Denzel was still throwing up blood earlier, but he had returned to normal. Paco was puzzled and chose to ask Denzel directly. Denzel looked smug and knew that he had Paco in the palm of his hand this time. It was very difficult for monster beasts to get pills, so Paco had to be very interested in the source of this pill. “I just took a pill that can heal my injuries immediately after taking it.” Paco forgot about everything, including the death of his son. “What pill is that? Show it to me!” As a monster beast, he was a battle maniac, so getting injured was commonplace. They often had to fight for territory. Paco always got injured and had to recuperate for a long time after each fight. He could fight until the end if he had pills like that in hand! All territory would be his, and he would be
Denzel felt a little awkward too. He just wanted to give it a try to see if the pill worked. Unexpectedly, the pill was so effective beyond his imagination. He had not wanted to share this information with Paco and just wanted to keep this secret to himself. However, Paco was already in the know, so Denzel had no choice. “You get in touch with him. If he’s willing to produce this pill for me, I can forgive him for killing my son,” Paco said with an air of superiority. No matter what, he was the strongest among monster beasts. He was the overlord whether in the human world or the monster beast world. Hence, he had his pride toward Philip. Even if Philip was good at making pills, it was not enough for Paco to humble himself. Denzel scowled. Paco actually wanted him to beg Philip! That was impossible! He did not want to give up his dignity, but he was scared of Paco’s anger. “Forget it, I should just do my part!” In the end, Denzel decided to obey. After all, t
Denzel seemed embarrassed and laughed as if he wanted to gloss things over. Philip noticed the eagle on Denzel’s shoulder. According to Aslan, monster beasts were usually at odds with humans. Even if they could produce offspring, it did not mean they would live in harmony. Someone like Aslan was quite the odd one out, so Philip did not think it was an ordinary eagle. Based on the eagle's body shape and condition, Philip could tell at a glance that it was a monster beast. In that case, it must be up to no good with Denzel. Philip became serious. He signaled to Fennel, and they stared at the visitors silently. Denzel did not expect the atmosphere to become so solemn. “Well, Philip, I believe you should know who I am,” Denzel said with a smile. Philip stared at Denzel indifferently. He could not forget what had happened at the diner. Philip had given Denzel a defective pill as a test. Philip had poisoned the pill. If Denzel really ate the pill, he would be poisoned b
Philip liked to use the leftovers for a foot bath or to fertilize his plants. He put them to good use. Philip modestly claimed that he could only make one pill every morning. Compared to his normal speed, he thought that this result was slow enough. Besides, he did not want to cause a big commotion either. After all, he was just an ordinary practitioner. He did not want anyone to come after him. “Don't worry, we’ll be happy as long as you can give us one pill a day,” Denzel said with satisfaction. He did not expect things to go so smoothly. He thought this pill was very rare, so it was amazing that Philip could produce one pill a day. Philip would tremble in anger if he knew how much they looked down on him. Making one pill a day was extremely embarrassing. Philip could easily make a pill in a matter of minutes. It was far beyond anything anyone could achieve. “If you give me 30 pills every month, I’ll turn a blind eye to your whereabouts,” Denzel said solemnly.
“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
