Philip had no idea that Dwight was making up stories in such a dramatic way. “First Elder, I leave this matter to you. I’ll contact some powerful members to take care of that store!” Dwight carried out the task smugly. He had done everything he could. Not only did the first elder not punish him, but Dwight had also shifted the blame on Philip. He believed Philip was doomed. Messing with the first elder was a bad idea. The first elder was notorious for being petty and would do anything to seek revenge. Now that Philip was on the cutting board, Dwight was in a very good mood. He used the first elder’s influence to contact several powerful guild members. Although Dwight could not order them around, no one dared to disobey the first elder. “Camden, I leave this to you. I believe you can take care of them! “With Camden’s help, I believe we can get rid of those arrogant people if we work together!” Dwight tried to flatter everyone. He was not very strong, but he was goo
The leader of the Pill Guild once charged a high price to make some pills for Twine, but his health worsened instead of improving. Thus, Twine had always had a bad impression of the Pill Guild. “That useless guild dares to offend Mr. Clarke!” Twine ordered his contacts not to interfere in this matter, leaving Philip to take care of the Pill Guild. In his opinion, they would die under Philip’s hands. The people in charge of the city received the news and could only turn a blind eye without another word. Dwight marched into the city and saw no city guards stopping him, which proved that the authorities were afraid of him. “Feel free to attack Philip without worries. I think the city guards dislike Philip too, or we wouldn't have been able to enter the city so easily. I was blacklisted before I left!” Dwight thought he would never return, but everything went so smoothly that his ego was inflated. This could only happen when his strength had reached a certain level and the
Very soon, Camden arrived in front of Philip with a disdainful smile on his face, ready to deal with Philip. “This store must belong to you. I don’t think you can keep it running for long. Why don't you stop making a fuss and hand over all your stuff quietly? If you beg for mercy on your knees right now, maybe I can consider giving you a chance. If you dare to resist, don’t blame me.” Camden was very arrogant and did not take Philip seriously at all. He was ready to find fault with Philip. “Cut the crap and do whatever you need to do!” Philip was very annoyed by these noisy people. Since they wanted to deal with him, they should cut to the chase without going through all the trouble. Seeing Philip’s arrogance, Camden sprang into action without further ado. With his ability, he could take care of Philip in no time. Camden raised his hand to summon a bolt of lightning and launched it at Philip, clearly trying to kill Philip. The onlookers were terrified by this sudden attac
The onlookers did not expect that Philip was so powerful and looked at him in disbelief. “Who's that guy who defeated Camden? Is he a true expert?” “Who’s Camden? Do you know him?” The onlookers chattered, wondering what was going on. The people in the know quickly shared the information they knew. “That person is a very powerful senior member of the Pill Guild. His strength shouldn’t be underestimated, so I didn’t think he’d lose so miserably!” “It's really embarrassing to be defeated with the same technique. I’d have died of embarrassment in his shoes!” Camden scowled upon hearing the onlookers’ discussions. He wished he could kill Philip on the spot. As a well-known senior member of the Pill Guild, he had never been so embarrassed. Other guild members fell silent at the sight of Camden’s outcome. They were afraid that Philip would attack them with the same method next. “Camden, are you okay? How do you feel?” “Camden, can you hear us? Are you hurt?” Everyone was
It was a disaster for a high and mighty person like Dwight to end up in this state. “Philip Clarke, I’ll remember you for the rest of my life. You can forget about having a good life ever again!” Dwight scowled and vowed to get stronger and kill Philip no matter what method he used. The humiliation that Philip had given him today had destroyed his sanity. He would never get over it unless Philip suffered the same humiliation. Even so, Dwight could not face his internal trauma. He had to kill Philip because this obsession would prevent him from progressing in his practice. He could only consider other dubious alternatives if he wanted to advance. However, that option was unrealistic. Dwight returned to the guild in anger and considered joining the demonic path. Camden was not someone to be trifled with. After Philip defeated him, he quickly returned to the guild and reported the incident. The people in the guild did not expect that this matter would become so serious. They
“If we take care of this guy, we can easily gain a good reputation. Now that it’s the season to recruit members, we can attract more and better followers if our performance is outstanding.” This person was the fourth elder in charge of the guild’s public relations. He had always been resolute and decisive in everything he did. Camden seized the time to voice his speculation. He could not wait to frame Philip. “Normal practitioners have energy fluctuations, but this guy is different. I didn't feel the slightest energy fluctuation in him at all, not even when he took action and injured Dwight. His methods are no different from a demonic practitioner!” Camden analyzed calmly. In his opinion, his speculation was possible. The other elders were uneasy to hear that this guy was so powerful. “It’s strange that he can do so many things without the slightest energy fluctuation. Let’s check this person out and see what’s going on!” Steve did not want to give up this good opportunit
Steve sneered at Camden and did not take him seriously at all. Camden had no choice but to nod and smile humbly without a word. Seeing no way to resolve this matter, the elders scowled. They even had the idea of taking Lyle by force. “As a last resort, we can spread the news about this and get rid of Lyle’s evil teacher. Then, we find a way to erase his memory.” Their guild had a technique to erase memories. Although harmful, it was their only option. Ted, the first elder, took out a pill from his pocket. It was the so-called memory-erasing pill. It was a powerful pill they made many years ago. Other than erasing someone’s memories under a controlled environment, it would also not cause great damage to the victim’s abilities other than a bad headache from time to time. This situation would more or less affect the person’s practice, but they thought it was nothing to worry about. After all, Lyle’s great ability and talent could make up for it. As long as they could
Camden was upset and frustrated. He was distraught when he recalled that he had been humiliated by both Philip and the elders. Now that things had progressed to this point, it was too late for him to say anything. He could only wait for the subsequent development. Ted and his party quickly arrived at the city. They had contacted the mayor before that.The mayor took the matter of demonic practitioners in his city seriously and allowed the Pill Guild to take action without hesitation. As the mayor, he was aware that a guy named Philip opened a store but did not know the details. According to his subordinates, Philip was a dreadful person who marked his products at very high prices. No one was willing to forge a good relationship with a demonic practitioner who was also a shrewd businessman. “Elders, I’ll leave this to you. I’m afraid this problem will only drag out if you don’t step in!” The mayor was taken aback and frightened. It would be bad if the Pill Guild had not disco
“You want the merfolk's pearl, but the fish creatures haven't given it to me yet. I don’t have it right now. Even if you defeat me, what’s the point? The fish creatures can run with it while you’re distracted. It’ll be a waste of time for you to fight me,” Philip said. He was really worried about Tom’s IQ. He could understand if he attacked Moby instead. “The thing is in Moby’s hand, but you want to attack me instead of dealing with him. Is it because you can't get the woman of your dreams?” Philip had a sharp tongue, and Tom trembled at his words. Philip dared to humiliate him like this. However, Philip had a point. He should deal with Moby instead. He was just annoyed that his beloved Marina liked Philip. Tom was infuriated by Philip’s words and attacked him. He had to kill Philip at all costs and show Marina the scene of Philip's defeat. The two were quickly engaged in a fight, and Tom moved fluidly in this disgusting swamp. Philip maintained a superior position and foug
“This is an agreement between me and Chief Moray. It’s not up to you.” After saying this, Tom took out a sharp dagger from his pocket. Philip thought Tom was going to attack him, but Tom used the dagger to cut himself instead, leaving everyone wondering what he was doing. After injuring himself, he took out a bottle of potion and poured it on the wound, which healed in a few seconds. Philip was surprised by the rapid recovery. The potion had to be a treasure. At this time, everyone realized that Tom's strength was increasing rapidly to the point of being daunting. Aslan stepped back cautiously, surprised by this unexpected turn. He had always been a fearless person, but he felt a sense of oppression from this weak person. It proved that the potion was powerful enough to pose a threat to him. Thinking of this, Aslan scowled and reached out for Philip, hoping that Philip could take care of it. After all, he and Lyle were equally strong. If he could not deal with Tom, Lyle
“Tom, if you can take care of this matter, I’ll give you Marina’s hand in marriage. I’m sure the two of you can work together to lead the merfolk to glory.” Everyone was shocked, including Tom, who was in disbelief. No one expected that Moray would ask Tom to marry Marina. Even the fish creatures were shocked. Although they were enemies, they knew that Marina was the merfolk's holy maiden. Tom had been protecting the holy maiden over the years, so he was a servant without a doubt. It was ironic to hear that a servant was worthy enough to marry the holy maiden. Marina was shocked and subconsciously glanced at Philip, who was indifferent about it. After all, it was the merfolk's affairs, nothing to do with him. Philip would not bother even if Marina had to marry an old man. “However, you must prove your ability before you can marry my daughter. If you get the item, I’ll hand her to you.” Moray had been seriously injured before this and could no longer fight normally. The merf
Philip took out a small bottle of elf water from his pocket and handed it to Moby. He wanted to see what the ugly creature would look like after taking the precious elf water. Moby was shocked to see Philip handing him some elf water and felt unworthy of it. At Philip’s insistence, he walked over and respectfully took the small bottle of elf water from Philip. He took a sip cautiously and wanted to marvel at its wonderful taste. Philip felt exasperated at Moby’s caution. Moby probably had no idea how Lyle and the others treated the water. They not only used it to bathe but also drank it casually like normal drinking water. Marina and the others watched with envy. They knew how precious the elf water was, so they were shocked by Philip’s generosity in giving it to the humble fish creatures. Even the merfolk found it difficult to get some elf water, but these lowly creatures got it. No one would be happy at this scene. Philip glanced at everyone. The other fish creatures st
Surprisingly, things turned out this way. However, Marina believed that Philip would not do things to the extreme. There had to be a reason for his actions. “Philip, you promised us first. Are you going to go back on your word and work with the fish creatures instead? They're up to no good. You’ll regret it if you work with them!” Tom was nervous, afraid that he had messed things up. It would be over if Philip decided not to help them anymore. He could already imagine how angry Moray would be. “I only promised to take care of the fish creatures. Now that they've surrendered to me, it’s the same as fulfilling my promise. Do you think otherwise? Now that it’s done, I have no obligation to help you any longer. That’s all I have to say.” Philip shook his head helplessly at the nervous Marina. He thought it was a pity. Marina was a nice person, but she was too young and innocent, full of unnecessary fantasies in her mind. Maybe things would not have turned out this way if she had
“I’m surrendering to the humans, not the merfolk. Who do you think you are?” The chief of the fish creatures knew that he stood a chance to survive if he surrendered to the humans, but they would be dead if they gave in to the merfolk. The merfolk hated their existence and could not wait to kill them. On the other hand, the humans did not have a big grudge against them. At most, he would allow Katie to stab them a few times. Moray scowled at his words and trembled with anger. “Fine, remember your words. You’ll pay the price for what you said today.” He turned away from the chief of the fish creatures' arrogant face and glanced at Philip instead. In his opinion, Philip should at least fulfill his promise. However, Philip paid no heed to him at all. “You should know what I want. I won’t take action if you hand it over of your own accord. Although you’re ugly, at least you never messed with me,” Philip said with a smile. The fish creatures could not refute the fact that they
Tom watched this scene smugly. His plan worked. Although he failed to get Katie’s agreement, he managed to sow discord between Marina and Philip. He could proceed with the next step. Marina was very upset now, so he had to seize the opportunity to intervene. Katie was the center of this fight. It was time for a battle to the death. Philip watched from the sidelines. He would only step forward to provide help when Katie needed it. Otherwise, he would simply keep an eye on her. He wanted to take the opportunity to train her as an ace up his sleeve. The fish creatures were fully prepared to fight Philip and the others, but they had no idea that they were so strong. They thought that the humans had ordinary bodies and could not resist their poison. The fish creatures' venom should be lethal for humans, making them unable to resist. However, these humans seemed indestructible. They had no way to deal with them no matter how hard they tried. “What’s up with these people's bodies?
Tom was counting on Philip to help them deal with the fish creatures. He thought that he could sit back and reap the benefits, but things were not as simple as imagined. Philip would not fall for it so easily. Philip glanced at Tom, disappointed by the eagerness in his eyes. He did not expect that the simple and honest young man would show such a side. At this time, Tom glanced at Katie. He wanted to take the opportunity to win Katie over to his side. “Katie, just look at the ugly side of these people. I begged Philip to bring you to this world back then, so I’m obligated to protect you. Philip is up to no good. I want to take responsibility for what I did back then,” Tom said righteously. Tom felt smug about it, but it was quickly replaced by tension and worry. Katie looked at Tom in confusion, thinking that maybe he was a little unhinged. “You didn’t beg Philip to take me in back then. I was the one who begged him to take me away. “If you hadn't fled to our fishing villag
Moray glanced at Philip with disdain and anger, blaming Philip for everything. He would not have suffered this humiliation if not for Philip. “No matter what, I’ll take care of you right now. Putting aside whether I’m working with humans or not, you’ll die as long as you can’t defeat me.” Moray put up a tough front, feeling annoyed about this. He was embarrassed because of Philip. He vowed to cut off all ties with Philip later and never let anyone know that they worked with humans. Aslan was annoyed by Moray’s unpleasant words. “What do you mean, old man? You behaved differently when you wanted to use us and changed your attitude after using us. Are you burning bridges now?” Aslan with his hot temper knew that the best way to deal with Moray was to condemn him. Moray scowled, surprised that someone dared to complain about him. “What do you mean? Do you think I'm a pushover? You used us to help you deal with the fish creatures, and you want to cut ties with us right after th
