As Dustin looked around, a hand reached out and pulled him inside. Before Dustin could react, he was pulled into the barrier. Kemp panicked and rushed forward to rescue his teacher. However, only Dustin knew how to open the barrier. Kemp was helpless and nervous like a cat on a hot tin roof. He could not enter at all. “What the hell is going on?” Kemp was puzzled and looked at the entrance curiously. He felt both excited and worried when Dustin was captured. However, Kemp finally decided to ask for help. He could not afford the consequences if something happened to Dustin. More importantly, he had not learned everything from Dustin yet. He would lose the opportunity if Dustin died inside. Kemp’s cries for help quickly took effect. A team of guards ran over and frantically tried to break the barrier but to no avail. “Hurry up and think of a way to rescue my teacher. You’ll be in trouble if something happens inside!” Kemp ranted furiously, putting all the blame on
Dustin could leave with this stone. The second round of evil spirits would appear in a few minutes. He had no time to lose. Philip smiled at Dustin’s reaction. “Other than this stone, the other way out is to survive five rounds of evil spirits, right?” Philip said with a smile and put the stone into his pocket. He had tested it earlier. They could not leave with this stone at all. The formation had been activated, and the barrier had sealed them in by now. Unless Dustin could destroy the barrier or find the key to the barrier, it was impossible to get out. Aslan and Lyle stood in front of Philip to stop Dustin from grabbing the stone. Of course, they knew Dustin's nasty plan. On top of that, they wanted to avenge Poppy, so they only wanted to give Dustin a good beating. “What are you doing? Let go of Mr. Dustin!” “If you kill him, how can we leave? Can you save us with that worthless stone?” “We have the chance of becoming his apprentice. How could you do this to
Philip nodded. Dace was quite sensible. Although he was rude earlier, he seemed okay now. “That's right. He just wants to use your blood essence to complete a sacrifice. Without weapons to restrain evil energy, no one can escape, and your blood essence will eventually summon a legendary being,” Philip explained. He had a rough understanding of the whole situation now. He received a lot of information when he found the stone, so he knew some of Dustin's plans. Dustin scowled when he heard Philip exposing his secret. He knew someone would discover his secret when the stone went missing. However, he did not expect that this person would make this secret public. “What? Is that so? Are you saying that Dustin wants to kill us?” Dace cursed. He could hardly wait to kill Dustin. Others were ready to take action. Although some of them doubted Philip, it was easy for them to die in this evil place. “Mr. Dustin, we’ll believe you if you let us out!” someone yelled. As long as
These people dared not make a fuss and simply obeyed. Their lives were in Philip's hands, so they had to listen to him. “I can guarantee other people’s safety, but I can’t say the same for you,” Philip said to Dustin with a smile and handed the stone in his hand to Lyle. “Do you want this stone to open the barrier? Let me show you if this stone is useful!” Philip motioned Lyle to go to the entrance. Without hesitation, Lyle went to the barrier with the stone in hand. Everyone eagerly looked at Lyle as he approached the barrier, wondering if they could leave after this. Dustin looked at Lyle silently, trying to find a chance to sneak out. However, he did not get this opportunity. Lyle approached the entrance, but the barrier was motionless. He waved the stone at the entrance of the barrier, but there was no reaction at all. Obviously, using the stone to open the passage was not the correct method. “How is this possible?” Dustin was dumbfounded He never imagined tha
Although Dustin was not that weak, he could not deal with these evil spirits without preparation. “I’ll do it!” “Count me in! Sir, remember your promise!” Some people rushed forward excitedly and quickly surrounded Dustin to protect him. These people were simply unscrupulous, protecting Dustin with weapons given by Philip. Lyle was furious with their actions. “What are you doing? Don't forget, the weapons in your hands belong to us!” Lyle yelled angrily, trying to remind the turncoats. However, they ignored Lyle. “The weapons are in our hands. What can you do?” “We have the right to make our choice. Keep out of it!” These people were very arrogant and refused to return the weapons. Lyle almost passed out in anger. Aslan was furious and wanted to teach them a lesson. He could easily handle some ordinary practitioners. Philip felt disgusted with these despicable people. They fully demonstrated the nature of villains. Philip beckoned to their weapons, which fle
Philip's remark left Dustin speechless. He clenched his fists, at a loss for what to do. “Since you can bring me in, I’m sure you can let me out too. Name your price.” Dustin tried to buy time. He did not want to die here. “Tell me your reason for kidnapping Poppy,” Philip asked without further ado. Dustin was startled. For a moment, he had no idea what the other party was talking about. After a while, he finally recalled who Poppy was. “Oh, are you referring to that little girl? Haha, what’s the relationship between you two?” Dustin was not happy at the mention of Poppy. That girl had given him a lot of trouble. At first, he planned to teach Poppy a good lesson. When the time was ripe, he would display a mutilated girl to that good elder brother of his to show him the consequence of being his apprentice. When he entered the room where Poppy was imprisoned, however, he was attacked unexpectedly. This girl was much stronger than he thought, giving him the impressio
“Let’s go. We’ll leave him for his brother to deal with. What do you think Mr. Lindell will do to this guy if he finds out about it?” Philip said with an insincere smile. It was the best way to torture and annoy Dustin. Sure enough, Dustin panicked upon hearing Philip’s words. He did not expect Philip to know his brother. He thought Philip was simply acquainted with young people like Poppy, but he also knew his brother, and it seemed that their relationship was quite good too. “No, don’t do this. Since you know my brother, you should know I have the same authority as him. Why don’t you work for me instead of him? I can give you the same wealth and status!” Dustin tried to entice Philip as soon as he found some information. Philip felt disdain at his words. “You’re ridiculous. Do you think Philip works for your brother? Your brother is Philip’s apprentice, alright!” Lyle could not help but mock Dustin. Everyone was shocked by that revelation, including Dustin. Most of
“Philip, that guy is really stupid. Does he really think that the God of Life can resurrect by absorbing human blood?” Lyle marveled at Dustin’s stupidity. Such a cruel and evil method could only summon a terrifying creature. By then, Dustin might even lose control of the situation and be taken over by the other party. Kemp and the others stood watch at the entrance. They tried to break the barrier by force, but after suffering a backlash, no one dared to act recklessly anymore. As more and more people walked out, Kemp was curious. He asked a few people at random, but they were confused and did not know where Dustin was. In desperation, Kemp had no choice but to wait. However, he did not see Dustin even when Philip and the others came out. “Have you seen my teacher?” Kemp asked rudely. Aslan shook his head blankly. “It was so chaotic inside that we didn’t see anything.” Aslan pointed inside after saying this. “Why don't you go in and search? He's probably lying insi
