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
“We don't have any good things on hand. Why don’t we pool our money together to buy something valuable for Philip? I think we should get him a beast as a mount!” Twine suggested. He thought it was a very good idea. So far, no one noticed that Philip had a mount, so they decided to give Philip something good after much deliberation. They had more or less decided, but Philip did not know about their good intentions. Philip simply waited for Lyle to open the store while expecting the troublemakers. This problem had to be resolved eventually. There was no point in dragging it out or it might cause more problems. When he was almost bored out of his mind, a large number of people appeared on the street. Everyone was proud and arrogant, obviously looking for trouble. Aslan was excited at the sight of them. These people really showed up. Aslan loved fighting the most. After keeping a low profile for such a long time, he could hardly wait. “Philip, leave these people to me. I ca
Most people would be freaked out at the sight of his face. He took out a photo from his pocket and held it in his hand angrily. “Argent, you've enjoyed your life long enough. It’s time to get what you deserve.” The mysterious man smiled cruelly with obvious hatred for Argent. This whole incident had nothing to do with Philip at all. Philip was simply a pitiful pawn in these people’s hands. Philip never dreamed that someone would target him for no reason. He just wanted to improve his strength. He could not care less about what other people thought of him.… Time passed quickly. The next day, Philip did not expect these people to come after him so soon. He just wanted to have a good rest and find a suitable place to settle down, but these people were as annoying as pesky flies. “Philip, get out here at once. I want to see how strong you are. How dare you show off in front of me?” Argent yelled at Philip’s door in disdain. His right hand was bandaged tightly as if he was still
The mysterious man forced himself to contain his anger and smile at Argent. Argent knew that he had to stop asking for more. At this point, what was the most important? “I can give you Philip’s address, and we can deal with him tomorrow morning. If you teach him a good lesson, I’m sure he’ll listen to you,” Argent said smugly. His plan was simple. He wanted to use the other party to deal with Philip. Philip had messed with him earlier and crippled his right hand. He would have died if he had not stopped the bleeding in time. Therefore, the grudge between him and Philip was so deep that he could not wait to rip Philip into pieces. Argent and the mysterious man who refused to reveal his name quickly came up with a plan. “In that case, I’ll see you again tomorrow morning. I hope you won't let me down.” After saying this, the mysterious man zoomed into the distance and soon disappeared. Seeing the other party’s hasty retreat, Argent was full of disdain. “Hehe, you think too hig
“Wow, you guys are so generous to send me such a precious gift this time. Tell me more about the deal you want to discuss with me. If it’s up to my expectations, I can consider it.” Argent's mood changed for the better. He smiled brightly and did not consider other possibilities. He seemed to have forgotten the conflict and resentment he had toward Philip. “We know that a young heroic man has appeared in Deadly Arena this time. We’re very interested in him and have decided to recruit him. I heard that you fought him before. I wonder if he's as powerful as I imagined.” The other party did not introduce himself but looked at Argent with a smile. Argent scowled. He thought that this matter was over, but this guy brought it up again. He was obviously trying to belittle him. “Hehe, let’s forget it. I don’t have much of an opinion about Philip. He’s just an average person, nothing worth mentioning.” Argent was afraid of exposing his shame, so he tried to tarnish Philip’s reputati
After confirming that he could leave safely, Argent ran away quickly, unwilling to stay a second longer. Philip was so terrifying that he wanted to keep his distance from him. Argent simply wanted to rob Philip of his treasures, but he was seriously injured instead. He could not accept it. Argent quickly ran back home. He had settled down with his family after such a long time. Given his strength, no one refused his requests. Argent’s family members simply wanted to follow someone strong, so they did not mind doing anything. In the meantime, an uninvited guest appeared at Argent’s home. He did not make an appointment with Argent in advance, so Argent did not know him. When Argent returned home in a mess, they bumped into each other. “I’m surprised to see the head of the family looking so miserable. I’m here at the right time.” The man stared at Argent mockingly as if he was enjoying the show. Argent was annoyed by his reaction, angry that an outsider had seen him in his most mi
Argent felt fear grip him. Philip’s earlier action was terrifying, as if he could grab his soul with a wave of his hand. Philip laughed at Argent’s hasty retreat, amused by his cowardice. “I just wanted to scare you. There's no need to dodge so quickly,” he said with a chuckle. Argent was furious by Philip’s shameless prank. Although he was angry, Argent had to give up his absurd plan when he thought of Philip's strength. Philip was not to be trifled with. He had to watch out. Before he could slip away and mess with Philip another day, Philip grabbed his right hand abruptly, leaving him no time to react. Argent’s right hand lost all sensation as if it had been crippled. He looked down at his right hand in a panic and was shocked to find that his right arm had vanished. “What the hell is going on? How could you do this to me?” He was shocked that Philip could break his defense so easily and cripple him. He was a force to be reckoned with, and not everyone could go against hi
Argent was nothing more than average, but he was so full of himself. Philip felt that he might be inferior to the other party in that aspect. “All the rewards are in my hands. If you really want them, you can try to defeat me and take them away. Otherwise, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to get them with your strength.” Philip smiled at him. Although this guy was quite strong, he was no match for Philip. “I entered the top 100 of the advanced list when I was at your age. You’re nothing to me. Stop showing off in front of me.” A trace of disdain flashed across Argent’s face. He was clearly looking down on Philip. Philip nodded. This old man was very full of himself. His strength was undeniable, but it was nothing compared to Philip’s. “I heard that you don’t belong to a guild. Don't you feel ashamed? It’s a pity that no one is willing to take you in.” Philip smiled brightly. He said this on purpose to snub Argent. Argent was furious to hear Philip mocking him for this. He
After hearing Philip’s remarks, the guy trembled in anger. His name was Argent, nicknamed Silver Snake. He first came into contact with a practice technique when he was a teenager. As he did not know anything, he simply practiced the technique on his own. Unexpectedly, there was a problem with this technique. His height remained what it was in his teens, but his appearance became old. At first, he thought that he would always look like a teenager, but his appearance gradually became old and terrifying. No matter where he went after that, people would treat him as an old man even though he was only in his early 40s. Thinking of this, he felt sorry for himself, and his hatred for Philip deepened. Not only did his appearance change, but his practice level also slowly dropped to rock bottom. His mind gradually became more and more twisted because of this. Then, he stumbled into a cave and received a heritage by chance. The heritage was evil, but it helped him improve his practice
Philip nodded at the other party’s grace. “Not bad, that young man is quite decent.” Even though the other party was a middle-aged man, Philip called him a young man. Philip knew that someone else would approach him very soon. He could use this opportunity to find out more about the force behind the other party. He quickly reserved the inn and wandered around the streets. He wanted to see how many people were following him. Everyone had their own agenda and was up to no good. Philip soon saw a sneaky old man who did not seem to pose any threat. The old man looked at Philip thoughtfully with a hint of ridicule, which gave Philip an unpleasant feeling. “You should know the purpose of my visit. Do I need to elaborate?” the old man cut to the chase. Philip shook his head helplessly at the old man’s arrogance. The old man in front of him was quite powerful or he would not have been so arrogant. He thought he could deal with Philip easily with his strength. “You’re obviousl
Philip was surprised to hear that. “So, my performance was so outstanding that they can't wait to get rid of me.” Philip glanced at Duncan. Since he was not here for his money, there was no problem. Besides, he did not seem like a bad guy. “I have a job to do. I have to fulfill my responsibilities and obligations, so I need to report the situation truthfully.” Duncan knew he could not deal with Philip, so he had to find another way to negotiate with him. “If you promise not to take part in another match, I can consider letting you go for the time being. That way, I can go back and report my findings too.” He did not mention his men whom Philip took down as if they were not important at all. “Of course, I can’t agree to that. This isn’t as simple as you think. The people behind Deadly Arena won’t let me off so easily. Don’t worry about that,” Philip said with a smile. Since he knew that Duncan was from Deadly Arena, there was nothing more to say. Philip knew that Lyle
