Holy light would corrode Azrael at the slightest touch. Azrael found that his skin was burning and festering by now. Although he was a spiritual entity now, he felt the pain. He would be dead if he was fully exposed to the holy light. “Mmph!” Azrael groaned. He had no idea that Verge Tower was doing this with malicious intent. Philip was unfazed. He did not intend to pay attention to that lunatic. “We need to watch out. I have a bad feeling about this,” Rabbit reminded Philip uneasily. It felt that everything was too good to be true, so it did not dare to proceed. The place in front looked very grand, and no one knew what lay inside. “Something doesn’t seem right. Maybe I’m too sensitive, but I think that this thing…” Rabbit frowned at the holy light in front. Something felt wrong about everything. Philip was puzzled by Rabbit’s caution, wondering what it was thinking. “Just speak your mind. There’s no need to mutter under your breath. Are you hiding something from me
Philip did not doubt Rabbit’s words. Its strength was limited, so Philip never thought that Rabbit would deceive him. “Just because you failed doesn’t mean I can’t do anything,” Philip said with a bright smile. He was fully prepared and knew what to do. Rabbit had no choice but to follow Philip to this extremely dangerous place. Although devastated, it decided to give in. Philip quickly reached the holy place and had to squint his eyes. The light was too distracting, and he could not see clearly. As soon as Philip arrived, he saw the words ‘Heavenly Path’. He did not expect to find Heavenly Path’s Carrefour so easily. “It took me no effort to get here at all. This is surreal!” Philip sighed with emotion. He did not expect such an amazing thing to happen to him. With a bright smile on his face, he walked into Heavenly Path’s Carrefour. Philip was very excited to see this mysterious place. He knew that this place was very special. “Is this the so-called Heavenly Path’s Carr
Rabbit was quite traumatized by that constant wailing. When Philip walked closer, he realized that the thing making that noise was not a weird creature but a living person. That weird person seemed to be restrained by something, screaming miserably without moving at all. Since the person was the only living creature around, Philip walked over for a closer look. The other party was bound to this place and rendered motionless although they were quite powerful and capable. “What are you?” Philip asked curiously. He did not know if the other person could speak, but he had to find a way to communicate with the other party. “You can think of me whatever you want,” the other party replied quickly, proving that they could speak human language. Philip was puzzled. He reached out and touched the iron chains that restrained the other person and found that it was quite strong. “I’ll submit to you if you can release me from these iron chains. I'll kill whoever you want me to kill af
Philip was shocked to hear Rabbit’s words. So, the person in front of him was the so-called heavenly path’s guardian. After much deliberation, Philip decided to release him. He had to find out more about the guardian no matter what. “I can release you, but you have to tell me everything. Don’t try to lie to me.” Philip looked at the other person sternly and told him to make an oath. The guardian nodded and made his vow solemnly. “I swear upon my soul that I’ll never lie to you. If I do, you can do whatever you want to me. If you save me, I’ll give you everything I have.” Philip was surprised by his reaction. He was a good person, indeed. Not many people would dare to swear upon their souls. The result would be very bad if they broke their promise. Philip took out his weapon and broke the chains easily. The heavenly path’s guardian was shocked that Philip was strong enough to break the chains easily. As the heavenly path’s guardian, he knew how strong the chains were. “W
“I’m the so-called heavenly path’s guardian! But you must think that I’m very pitiful to end up in this miserable state.” He took the wine from Philip’s hand and smiled wryly. He never thought he would become so pathetic one day. As he spoke, he closed his eyes, recalling the past. Back then, all heavenly path’s guardians had an extraordinary status, and this place was thriving. Everyone wished that they could become a member of the heavenly path. Later, however, other creatures kept attacking this place. To wreak havoc, they even broke into the Heavenly Path’s Carrefour. Philip listened to the story while trying to imagine the scene, and his emotions surged. He did not expect that they had gone through so much back then. He could hardly imagine what the other party had encountered to end up in such a sorry state. “Back then, several powerful monsters came to my territory and trapped me, rendering me immobile in this place. I never thought they were so powerful!” Philip s
Philip took Rabbit out. He wanted to know the conflict between the two. The guardian’s expression changed rapidly upon seeing Rabbit as if he wanted to beat Rabbit up. “This damn rabbit is too much!” the guardian rushed over angrily. “This rabbit turned up when I was locked up back then. I begged it to help me, but it mocked me and even did something to my head instead!” The guardian was furious and did not elaborate. Philip finally knew why the guardian hated Rabbit so much. Rabbit had shamelessly mocked the guardian for being trapped in this place and even did something to his head. “I had some strength back then, so I took care of it. For now, maybe it can live a few more days.” Since Rabbit was Philip’s follower now, the guardian had no choice but to swallow his anger. “Since it’s your subordinate, I won’t say anything more, but I’m not happy with it!” Rabbit knew it had gone too far, so it gave in without defending itself. Philip smiled at the guardian’s ange
“Don’t think that I’m useless,” the guardian said helplessly. He knew what Philip was thinking. “In that case, it’s a deal. I can take you in and lend you a helping hand, but you need to improve your strength if you want revenge.” Philip was not a calculative person. He felt that the guardian was quite powerful. It would be good to make friends with him. The guardian was surprised by Philip’s kindness. “What’s your name? Let’s get to know each other and forget about all the formalities.” “You can call me Aloysius. I’ve forgotten my full name over the years. To be honest, I don’t think a name is necessary.” Philip noticed his smile of desolation. Over the years, everyone called him the heavenly path's guardian and admired him from the bottom of their hearts. “In that case, just come with me. Since you belong here, why don’t you show me around this place? I want to explore the secrets here,” Philip said with a smile. Since Aloysius was so powerful, Philip had nothing
Aloysius could not restore the Heavenly Path’s Carrefour by himself, so he was excited to get Philip’s help. At this time, Rabbit poked its head out. “Philip, are you sure you want to restore this place? This is no joke. It’s going to be a difficult task! Do you know what the Heavenly Path’s Carrefour is? It takes a lot to restore this place. Even all your precious pills may not be enough!” Rabbit had no idea how many good things Philip had, so it wanted Philip to forget about it. Philip shook his head. To be honest, he never thought he would fail. After all, he had Verge Tower to help him, so he was strong enough to restore this place slowly. “Don’t worry, I can handle it. I believe in myself.” Philip patted Rabbit's head gently. He was afraid that Aloysius would kill Rabbit if he saw it again. However, Aloysius was not a vengeful person and just ignored Rabbit. It was just a small animal. He did not have to take it seriously. The two walked around the entire Heavenly
Jamie was surprised by Philip’s easygoing reaction and immediately felt the gap between him and Philip. If Jamie were in Philip’s shoes, he would be worried, but Philip was confident instead. Jamie had a lot to learn from Philip. Jamie had no idea that Philip did not take Dennis seriously at all. Philip had too many capable people under his command. He was not concerned about Dennis at all. In comparison, Dennis could be considered the most useless person under him.… On the other hand, Rabbit arrived at the market. Rabbit was quite famous among the major families by now. As a non-human with a violent temper, he was in the center of attraction wherever he went. Someone tried to kidnap Rabbit once, but not only did he fail, but the person was also beaten badly. To this day, the kidnapper was still bedridden in the hospital. Rabbit’s notorious reputation had spread far and wide, and not just anyone could deal with him. At this time, many storytellers were at the tavern tal
People in seclusion would usually not receive any news from the outside world, so contacting them would be up to luck. Therefore, Lincoln's appearance was good news for the Hexa Guild. Now that the guild was under scrutiny, Lincoln's appearance would save them a lot of trouble. Lincoln stood on the spot, looking at the yard curiously. Philip had modified the yard, so it was full of energy. Any practitioner would feel the difference at once. Jamie and the others had discovered this fact but never asked out of courtesy. Everyone had their own secret. Maybe this was Philip’s secret. Lincoln closed his eyes and felt the abundant energy. He was reluctant to leave this place that contained tens of thousands of times more energy than the place he had chosen for his seclusion. Lincoln felt conflicted. He could practice much faster in this place if the energy level remained the same. Thinking of this, he could hardly contain his excitement to practice on the spot. Seeing Jamie nex
Lincoln had never met a monster beast with intelligence! After taking a closer look at Rabbit, Lincoln had other ideas. Philip was most likely a powerful person with extraordinary strength to have such a powerful monster beast as his pet. Dennis was not a fool. Philip had to be powerful and not a coward for Dennis to willingly follow him. Thinking of this, Lincoln showed Rabbit enough respect. “Mr. Rabbit, I’m looking for Dennis from the Hexa Guild.” The guild members behind him were full of disbelief at his courtesy. They had served him for a while and knew his character very well. Lincoln would never be so polite to ordinary juniors, so this rabbit had to be unusual. Thinking of this, their attitude toward Rabbit changed from disdain to admiration. Rabbit was shocked by their eccentric behavior and looked at them skeptically. Seeing their smiling faces, Rabbit decided not to make things difficult for them. Besides, they were polite. “Oh, you’re looking for Dennis. Come
This guild member could not forget how Hogster had always stolen his resources by force. Hogster’s ugly face made him sick. Although Lincoln was back, he had lost all confidence in the guild. He just wanted to return to Dennis' side as soon as possible. Although he was a member under the guild leader, Dennis was the one who had been helping him all along. In fact, if not for Dennis’ support over the years, even Alain would not have achieved what he had today. Hence, this guild member had always been grateful to Dennis. When Dennis left, he wanted to leave with him, but due to special circumstances, he stayed until now. Unexpectedly, it came in handy. Alain was excited to hear that. In Alain's opinion, such a lowly member would not dare to lie to him, so he had to be telling the truth. He knew that this was his chance to settle everything once and for all. Alain had been worried that Lincoln would blame him, but Lincoln was deceived instead, which was great. He had nothing t
Lincoln had a very good reputation, so the guild members dropped their guard and started to complain about everything. “Grandmaster, we've been having a hard time. Hogster always deducts our practice resources and gives them to the women he likes. It’s infuriating. We don’t even have that many resources to begin with,” a member said miserably. He had good talent, but Hogster did not give him any good resources, so his level remained stagnant. All his resources had been given to the women who had caught Hogster’s fancy. Lincoln scowled upon hearing this. How could Hogster take other people’s resources? He would not allow this to happen. “They also tried every means to arrange a political marriage with the Celestial Palace, but the agreement fell through, and they badmouthed the other party for it!” “They defamed the young lady of the guild, and now, they're furious at us. Their wrath is not a joke. Moreover, someone solved the side effects of their practice technique, but we'v
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.
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
