The First Heir Chapter 5541
A glimmer of hope welled up in the old man's eyes. He looked at Philip excitedly as if he had seen a savior. “This store is very cheap, only 500,000 energy stones. This location is in the center of Solstice City, the busiest street!” the old man introduced diligently to retain Philip, a big customer. Someone passed by at this time. The man scoffed at the old man’s enthusiastic introduction. He seemed to look down on this old man, so he watched in dissatisfaction. “Sir, other stores in this area cost at least several million energy stones, but this store is only selling for 500,000 energy stones. You can already imagine what’s going on!” the man could not hold back any longer and interrupted. Aslan looked at him curiously, wondering what was going on. “Indeed, it felt spooky the moment I came close. Is it haunted?” Aslan laughed. As a monster beast, he could sense certain things but not powerful spirits. If a spiritual entity was messing around, he could not deal with it

Under normal circumstances, practitioners could somewhat predict their fortune. Although not necessarily accurate, they could predict something. Why would anyone engage a fortune teller? “Outsiders like you may not be aware of my ability. I can see the future and predict many things that ordinary practitioners like you can't! For example, you can't deal with the creatures here, but I have a powerful ability to suppress them!” Oracle was saying that every profession had a specialization. There was a reason why he was so special. Hearing that, Philip took note of this guy. He felt that Oracle was more than met the eye. “What do you think, old man? As I mentioned, I can exorcize the spirit for free if you give me half the ownership of this store.” Oracle looked at the old man triumphantly, stating his request clearly. The old man frowned at Oracle, reluctant to give in. “No matter how worthless this store is, I won't give you half of it!” Since it was getting dark, Philip be

Philip reminded everyone to stay calm. He had no idea what to expect, but it was better to be careful. They soon arrived at the door of the store. It was very quiet with no people on the street. They heard something as they approached. It was as if someone was breathing into their ears and laughing hysterically. They could not even tell whether the voice was male or female. Aslan shuddered, thinking it was terrifying. “Philip, what’s going on? Did the thing inside escape?” Lyle asked in puzzlement. Although he was not very scared, he felt chills all over. “Something inside is doing this. I noticed it during the day. The thing inside carries the same vibe as the fortune teller.” Ordinary people could not detect it, but Philip's five senses were more acute than others, so he could detect things that others could not. Lyle and Aslan looked at each other and realized something. “Philip, are you saying that the fortune teller is behind this? Did he bring this thing on purp

“You’re here. Are you interested in my store? You’re welcome to take a closer look. The yard at the back is very big. You can move right in! There are even small houses at the back!” The old man greeted Philip very warmly. He was probably very interested in this store to return. “Indeed, I'm quite interested in your store,” Philip said with a smile. Oracle turned up, surprised to see Philip and the others again. “Didn’t you take a look last night?” Although Oracle spoke to Philip smugly, Philip saw the fatigue in his eyes. Oracle’s booth was a wreck last night. Oracle had to replace the flag this morning and buy new stools for the booth. “I did take a look last night. I saw people knocking your booth over,” Philip said with a smile, waiting for Oracle’s explanation. “Hehe, only the street punks would do that. My booth has nothing to do with them!” Oracle cursed unhappily. Philip disagreed. “It won’t be a problem if you set up a booth in a designated area, but this p

Philip smiled as a plan formed in his mind. Seeing that Philip was serious about this store, Oracle felt nervous. He did not expect that Philip would intervene. His plan was just about to succeed as the old man was ready to give in, but Philip decided to buy the store instead. “What? If you were here last night, don’t you realize what’s going on? Are you not afraid?” Oracle threatened Philip fiercely. In his opinion, Philip was seeking death. Philip signaled Aslan. Aslan rushed forward, grabbed Oracle, and threw him into the store. “Do you have the cheek to say that? If not for you, this store might have been sold for millions of energy stones!” They had inspected the store. Both its renovation and location were quite good. More importantly, the store looked very grand, a good fit for Philip’s tastes. The small houses in the backyard were well-built, more than enough to accommodate a dozen people. Hence, Philip felt that the price was too low. Philip thought it was

Oracle grimaced, shocked that Philip exposed his secret in public. With Philip’s explanation and Oracle’s reaction, the old man finally realized what happened. He was shocked by the truth. Oracle did not hesitate to kill most of his family members just for the store. His family was everything to him. Oracle was simply appalling for harming others just for a store. The old man could hardly control himself. He took a magic weapon and attacked Oracle. The weapon was all the old man had left. He planned to sell the magic weapon to treat his son's illness. “I can cure your son's condition and also pay you 800,000 energy stones for the store,” Philip said solemnly without any intention of taking advantage of the old man. The old man nodded. Although he was devastated to learn the truth, the dead could not return to life, but the living had to continue to survive. “Can you really cure my son? He has lost his mind.” The old man called his son over and looked at his foolish son he
The First Heir Chapter 5547
The old man burst into tears at his son’s recovery. He hugged his son and shook his head helplessly. Philip asked Lyle to give the old man the money before leaving with the house deed. They had to buy some daily necessities, so they left the space to the father and son instead of wasting time.Before they left, Philip sealed Oracle’s energy core. No matter how powerful Oracle was, he could not break Philip's constraints by force. “This guy is no different from an ordinary person now. You can do whatever you want,” Philip said. The old man was excited to hear Philip’s casual remark. He had suffered enough of Oracle’s torture. He would not miss the opportunity to teach Oracle a good lesson. “That’s great. You’re such a good person, young man. Not only did you solve such a big problem for me, but you also helped me deal with this mean guy!” The old man dragged Oracle away excitedly. A trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. He wanted revenge. This so-called fortune teller

Aslan kindly gave Lyle a soft mattress too. Lyle was hooked and wished he could stay in bed every day. At this time, Philip brought out some pills, weapons, and charms, all byproducts from the kids’ practice. Although most of them were considered semi-finished products, Philip felt they were good enough. Philip had done a market survey. Although the products on the market looked good, the actual results were not as good as expected. Philip knew that he had to open a store to gain popularity. The opening of Philip’s store attracted the attention of many people. Everyone wondered if anything was wrong with the store. Many people watched cautiously, but no one dared to enter. Some bolder people took a closer look and found that the spooky feeling was no longer there. “You’re really bold to buy this store. Are you not afraid of death?” “Haven’t you heard the rumors about this place? You should have asked around before buying this store!” Everyone advised Philip to get a

If Philip was at fault, Lincoln had nothing to say. However, if Hogster was the one who had caused all the trouble, he would not spare them. “I’ll get to the bottom of this. Now, tell me what’s going on with Dennis. Based on my understanding of him, he wouldn't betray the guild for no reason. He must have a reason for doing this!” Neither of them could explain what happened to Dennis. They could only say that humans were fickle. After all, they could not figure it out either. The person at fault would never admit their fault. Alain did not think that he was biased or thought that what he had done was excessive. He simply thought that Dennis looked down on him, which was why he decided to leave. Now that he was gone, Alain could say whatever he wanted, and Dennis could not defend himself. Thinking of this, Alain was very excited. He began to defame Dennis and shifted the attention away from him and his son. Lincoln scowled as he listened. Then, he returned to his room and summ

Alain was helpless. Although he had a lot to say, he could not do anything in front of Lincoln. Lincoln was stronger than him in every aspect, a force to be reckoned with. He was not someone Alain could deal with. Alain looked at Lincoln awkwardly. He wanted to appease his anger but did not know what to say. “You need to explain this to me. Why did Dennis leave? And I want to know why the guild’s reputation has become so bad. Did you do something wrong?”Lincoln heard that Dennis had been expelled and could no longer stay in the guild. Many people supported Dennis, so they were upset with Alain and tried to defame him. Hearing that, Alain knew that someone must have been talking behind his back, but he did not dare to lose his temper. He forced a smile and looked at Lincoln in a flattering manner. Before he could find an excuse, Hogster rushed over excitedly and said to his father, “Father, guess what I did to Philip? Hehe!” Hogster recounted his handiwork smugly without p

It had been years since the grandmaster went into seclusion for practice. He was not concerned about power. He once mentioned that he would not leave his seclusion unless he reached the top. Hence, no one expected to see him. “Grandmaster, you appeared at the right time. We would've been in trouble if you didn't come out!” “That’s right. Everyone is bullying us. Now that you’re out, you can help us.” Everyone complained about their grievances, feeling sorry for themselves. The Hexa Guild was in trouble, and they faced various problems too. All the major guilds were keeping a close eye on the Hexa Guild, waiting to see them make a fool of themselves. The Celestial Palace planned to destroy the Hexa Guild instead of letting them off. They could not accept the initial setup, so they decided to erase the Hexa Guild from existence. Hence, the Hexa Guild had been under great pressure, with the members wishing that someone could help them. Unexpectedly, a strong expert appeared.
The First Heir Chapter 6283
Ronan was his buddy, and his wife's reputation was at stake. Philip could not stand idly by. He had to help. Jamie was very fast at ordering his people to make the matter public. No one expected another dramatic turn of events. Everyone thought that the young lady of the Celestial Palace was an unchaste woman for making that decision. Unexpectedly, the Celestial Palace found a way to solve the side effects of their technique. All the major guilds were in trepidation. Although the Celestial Palace’s technique was very powerful, the side effects reduced its allure. Now that that problem was solved, everything was different. On top of that, the holy maiden and other members of the guild showed their appearance in public. Regardless of gender, everyone was beautiful without any markings on their faces. After seeing this scene, everyone knew that the Celestial Palace was about to make a comeback. Carlos was very excited and thought that Vanna was a lucky star to bring so many
The First Heir Chapter 6282
After reading the letter, Alain trembled in anger, shocked that two of his strongest members would choose to leave the guild at such a critical time. Their departure was no joke. The guild could lose the guild competition at any minute! Dennis and Louis were very strong and could hold down the fort in the competition. With their departure, Alain would have fewer people to count on, and things might end up a mess. He was furious about their abrupt departure. “I need to capture Dennis. How dare he betray us?!” Alain was very upset. As a traitor, Dennis had to be dealt with. The news quickly spread, and many members found out that Dennis had chosen to leave the guild. The other elders also wondered what they should do. They knew that Dennis was a smart man and was good at judging the situation. Choosing to leave was a sign of a change to come. Everyone had their own thoughts and a rough guess about what was going on. Alain's actions not only caused an uproar but also made
The First Heir Chapter 6281
A young man about the same age as him was so talented. Could anyone not be jealous? However, Louis was truly not jealous. He just wanted to learn from Philip. If Philip was really that strong, he would obey. Although Louis had a high status in the guild, he was not highly valued. That useless loser was given priority when it came to most of the resources, which made Louis upset. By right, resources should be allocated to talented people, but things were different because Hogster had a guild leader for a father. Thinking of this, Louis smiled at Philip expectantly. If Philip was worth following, he would leave the Hexa Guild without hesitation. “I want to apologize for offending you earlier. I also want to follow you, but I don’t know if I’m good enough. If you won’t consider me, I hope you can give my son a chance. He’s pretty talented.” Dennis was very polite as he apologized to Philip. Philip was surprised and thought that Dennis was quite nice. Philip invited them insi

Dennis and Louis quickly arrived at the door and knocked nervously. Rabbit opened the door this time. He did not expect to see Dennis again. He thought Dennis was here to cause trouble, so he scowled. “Why are you here again, old man? Do you want to cause more trouble for us? You’d better think twice or I’m going to get angry!” Rabbit said fiercely. Rabbit easily crushed them earlier, so they would not forget about their miserable defeat so quickly. Louis was embarrassed to hear that this rabbit had defeated his father. He had always thought that Dennis was very powerful and would not lose to a younger person no matter what. Unexpectedly, Dennis was not only defeated but lost miserably too. Louis keenly perceived that this talking rabbit was Philip’s pet and became excited. If Philip's pet was so powerful, Philip should be better. Thinking of this, he was excited and wanted to see Philip immediately. Rabbit stared at Dennis and Louis, wondering what they were up to. Denni

Celeste was surprised to see that Esther had restored her appearance. She had just seen Esther wearing a veil to cover her ugly face when they first met earlier. “Amazing! You look beautiful all of a sudden,” Celeste praised Esther from the bottom of her heart. Celeste did not know how it happened, but there had to be a reason for it. Esther smiled at Celeste. “Now that I’m beautiful, I can fully focus on taking care of Philip. Don’t worry, I won’t be worse than you.” Hearing that, Celeste was puzzled by Esther’s aggression. While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, an uninvited guest turned up at the door. It was none other than Dennis of the Hexa Guild. Dennis was not alone as he had brought his son along with him. His son was quite talented and always listened to his father's opinions. After all, he knew that he would not be where he was without his father’s guidance, and most of his father’s decisions were correct. “Father, are you sure we should leave the guild
The First Heir Chapter 6278
Esther never thought that her curse could be lifted so quickly. More importantly, Esther found that all the negative energy in her body had disappeared. She took off her veil and looked at them with her true appearance. Esther was beautiful by nature, but the nasty technique had impacted her self-esteem. Now that she had regained her appearance, Esther’s confidence returned as well. “Wonderful! This technique is the perfect improved version! With this technique, our members can practice like any normal person without worrying about their appearance. Other guilds can’t kick a fuss over it or try to mess with us again!” Jamie was ecstatic and abruptly remembered a very important question. “By the way, what’s the deal with this technique? Did someone give it to you?” Jamie had to get to the bottom of it. It was very important. He would be uneasy if he did not figure out the situation. “Philip gave it to me. I don't know how he got our technique, but he’s quite good at studying
