Alton was surprised that his son did not attend his classes but came here to ruin his fun instead. Cosmo sneered and said, “The commotion you made attracted my attention!” Alton felt frustrated at Cosmo’s sarcastic retort. “Whatever, I’ll just blame it on your youth and ignorance. Don’t say such things again. You should return to your classes right now!” Alton waved his hand in dismissal. He still doted on his son. “Give me the woman inside,” Cosmo said. Alton was startled and turned to Cosmo in disbelief. “What did you say?” Cosmo stared at his father steadfastly and repeated his request with emphasis, “I said, give me the woman inside.” Alton was furious. Not to mention that he was already obsessed with Scarlet, even if she was just a tool for him to vent, she was not someone his son could touch! “Get out of my sight!” He smacked Cosmo and sent him flying. Cosmo looked at his father angrily. He had never suffered this treatment before. “Don’t say such things a

Scarlet was surprised that everything went so smoothly. This father and son were so gullible. Scarlet was also proud that the trap she set caused conflicts among many people. “Let’s see what you can do next, little guy.” Scarlet smiled as Cosmo left. She took another pill to ensure her appearance remained unchanged. She could only gain the trust of others by maintaining this appearance.… Meanwhile, Alton found Mark. At first, he thought he would let Mark take charge, but he was so slow that Alton was getting impatient. “Have you taken any action? Why haven't I heard anything?” Alton questioned Mark unhappily. “If you can’t get it done, let someone else do it!” Alton snapped so fiercely that the domestic staff cowered in fear. Mark sighed and told Alton what happened the other day. At first, he wanted to take this opportunity to capture Philip’s alchemist. Not only did he fail, but he also alerted the enemy. His men were keeping watch at the door but saw no signs of the othe

Alton clenched his fists, shocked by his son’s actions. “He wants Philip to deal with me, there's no doubt about it!” Alton quickly guessed the truth. He would not hesitate to kill anyone who had second thoughts, but this was his precious son. His only child! “Yes, we have to kill Philip at once to prevent anything from happening or he’ll lead my son astray!” In Alton's twisted mind, everything was Philip's fault. Cosmo would never have the crazy thought of getting rid of him if Philip had not brainwashed him. “It’s all his fault. I only have one precious son to inherit the family business. If anything happens, I’ll obliterate him!” Alton was prepared to do whatever it took to get rid of Philip. Once Treasure House was in his city, he could easily control it. “I have a plan.” Alton pulled Mark over for a private discussion. After Alton changed his mind and decided to kill Philip, Mark was excited. He could take this advantage to gain some benefits too. Meanwhile, Phil

Granite could only take care of himself. Noelle calmed everyone down with a few words, and their emotions slowly returned to normal. The store was open as usual, but their sales doubled. “We've increased the quantity of our products. We may face various dangers from now on. Everyone needs more reserves of various pills and weapons, so we should double the quantity.” As a smart person, Noelle knew exactly what to do. Anyone who guessed the situation would visit the store and spend as much as they could. Even if they spent all their fortune, they had to buy something to protect themselves. People from the surrounding cities evacuated with their families and belongings as quickly as they could. Cosmo City was undoubtedly the best place to hide from the beasts. The city was quite big and had good defenses. Their safety could be guaranteed if the city would accept them. If the large cities could not protect them, they could only head to Imperial City, but it was not a place

Everyone argued, “No, sell the pill to me! I’m willing to pay more!” “800 energy stones is really cheap. Such a precious pill would cost at least several thousand in Bijou Parlor!” “If we can get this pill while resources are scarce, it can save a life!” A glimmer of hope ignited in everyone's heart. This energy replenishment pill was simply a godsend. Just a whiff of it could restore some energy, not to mention eating it. Thinking of this, everyone wanted to get this pill. At this time, Granite decisively introduced other pills to them. “This is the worst pill in our store. You should look at other pills! They're very pure, and their aroma is totally contained in the pill, which prevents their medicinal power from leaking,” Granite explained eloquently. Granite believed his speech was perfect and fully demonstrated the power of the pill. However, no one took him seriously and thought he was joking. They felt that no pill could totally conceal its fragrance. Thus, no on
