(Alternate Title: The Glorious LifeMain Characters: Philip Clarke, Wynn Johnston) “Oh no! If I don’t work harder, I’d have to return to the family house and inherit that monstrous family fortune.” As the heir to an elite wealthy family, Philip Clarke was troubled by this…
View MorePhilip 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
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 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
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
Rabbit smiled at Philip. It had regained quite a bit of memories this time. Although still lacking, it was good enough. Philip nodded with satisfaction. This little rabbit had done something good this time. Philip emptied the coffin and walked to the depths of the underground river with Rabbit in tow. Although the underground river was like stagnant water, there was a path leading into the distance. Philip walked into the depths of the dark river and soon saw a glimmer of light. Azrael had been tortured beyond recognition by this point. He was sprawled in the cage, full of resentment. He hated himself for messing with an enemy like Philip. He wondered why someone so powerful would appear here to disturb his practice. If Philip was not so strong, he could take over his body by force, which was a good thing for Azrael. However, Azrael had no way to deal with such a powerful guy. Now that he was captured instead, it was a tragic end for him. ‘Oh no, if he walks to the end of t
“There are 18 powerful beings on this continent, all kingly figures in their own right. They guard over 18 respective areas and can be regarded as the overlord in each place! “However, Azrael is different. Although he’s almost as strong as those 18 people, he doesn’t belong in their ranks because he’s a demonic practitioner! “He has a territory of his own, but he wreaked havoc in that place and made such a mess that countless people were dispatched to get rid of him! “He probably holed himself up in such a remote cliff because of their pursuit, lying in wait for his resurrection.” Rabbit explained in detail what happened back then. In short, Azrael was severely injured but the hunt for him was still ongoing, so he chose this method for resurrection. Philip finally knew Azrael’s background but did not think he was worthy of admiration. Philip had always despised demonic practitioners and did not share their views at all. “In that case, I’m actually doing a good deed by captu
Philip had agreed to let Verge Tower slowly absorb Azrael’s soul. It would enhance Verge Tower's strength and also get rid of a cruel guy. Azrael's initial plan was to use this method to torture Philip to death so that he deserved this treatment as well. “Mmph!” Azrael sobbed and choked, trying to stop Philip. He had never shed tears after so many years, but he felt the fear of death this time. The feeling of his soul being devoured was very uncomfortable. Azrael trembled in the corner pitifully. However, Philip did not feel sorry for him at all. Instead, he thought Verge Tower was not mean enough. “Keep it up. Make sure to wipe this guy out thoroughly!” After saying that, Philip went to Rabbit’s side. He took out a pill and fed it to Rabbit to wake it up. Fortunately, Rabbit was not seriously injured but was simply knocked unconscious. “How dare that guy treat me like this? Does he think I’m a pushover?” Rabbit cursed after waking up. Philip shook his head at its react
Seeing that, Azrael hoped that Philip was not strong enough to break his bones. After all, those were not ordinary bones. Normal practitioners could never destroy bones of such good quality. He wanted to know what method Philip would use to break his bones, which was impossible in his opinion. “Verge Tower, do you think it’s a good idea to use these bones to make a puppet of my own?” Philip said to Verge Tower in his mind. He thought the bones looked pretty good. “You have such bad tastes to take a fancy to these bones. Just get rid of them quickly. I’ll remind you if we come across any good things later. “If you want a puppet, you should look for things such as dragon bones. The evil energy on these bones is too strong. I’m afraid you can't take it.” Verge Tower’s quick response did not satisfy Philip. Verge Tower actually thought he could not handle this evil energy! However, Philip chose to listen to Verge Tower and destroy the bones. Under Azrael's expectant eyes, P
Philip sneered and mocked Azrael, “How ridiculous. You were the one who sneaked up on me in the first place. Now that you couldn’t beat me, you want to fight me openly instead? Do you think everyone is an idiot like you?” Azrael was furious at Philip’s taunts, but it did not matter. He was trapped in Philip’s mind and could not leave at all. Philip praised Verge Tower for its might. Maybe Philip would have felt the pressure if Azrael had launched a physical attack on him. After all, his thousands of years of practice were not for show. He would be far better than Philip no matter what. However, Azrael chose to attack his soul instead. A powerful existence like Verge Tower would never allow an invader to enter Philip’s soul at will. “There's something wrong with you. You must have a treasure on you or it would've been impossible for you to trap me!” Azrael seemed to realize something and yelled about his discovery. “I worked hard to practice my soul technique to make my soul
