Philip had long noticed this. If the people of the floating city did not fight back, the fate that awaited them would be annihilation. Philip’s plan now was to help the floating city get rid of the fire phoenix royal family’s pursuit in a different form. Conlay dashed out at this time. He walked to Philip's side and said with a smile, “Philip, it's all thanks to you this time. If not, our counterattack wouldn’t have been so successful.” Philip did not smile but asked Conlay seriously, “What's your plan for the next step? Don’t tell me you don’t know that the fire phoenix royal family will be launching a full-scale attack on you next.” Conlay sighed. He had led the floating city to deal with the fire phoenix royal family for so long. How could he not know what the fire phoenix royal family was thinking? “The truth is they just want to kill me. After all, I’m still the ninth prince of the fire phoenix royal family. “Although I’ve defected, some people just want to pull the
Philip’s and Conlay's outrageous behavior had certainly caught the attention of the fire phoenix royal family. Although this method was conspicuous, to Philip and Conlay's surprise, not only did the fire phoenix royal family not behave differently, but they even opened the door and allowed them to enter the fire phoenix royal family's imperial city. All the members of the fire phoenix royal family simply looked at Philip and Conlay. Along the way, Philip was poised to fight and did not expect this situation at all. Entering the imperial city again and looking at the banners of the fire phoenix royal family, Conlay sighed. It had been a long time since he was last back in the imperial city. At first, he planned to make a big fuss with Philip here, but seeing the familiar streets, buildings, and scenery, he could no longer arouse such emotions. This was his home, and he was the ninth prince. The streets were full of people from the fire phoenix royal family’s battalion. J
Conlay nodded. “Now, the imperial city is almost completely controlled by the people of the Great Preceptor. They hold no grudges against us, and we’ve even done them a small favor.” Hearing that, Philip merely nodded. However, he did not believe that the fire phoenix general’s faction would let him and Conlay go. Amid the cheering crowd, Philip heard them shouting, “Phoenix Tribulation, Phoenix Tribulation!” A hint of reminiscence crossed Conlay’s eyes. He said to Philip, “I forgot all about the Phoenix Tribulation.” Seeing Philip's bewilderment, Conlay explained to Philip what the Phoenix Tribulation meant. It was a special rite circulated in the fire phoenix royal family a long time ago. Every member of the fire phoenix royal family, or rather, a young adult under the age of 20, must go through this stage before they could officially evolve into members of the fire phoenix royal family. The phoenix totem would appear on their bodies only during this time. “Afte
Conlay said, “Everything will not start until after the Phoenix Tribulation, so we probably need to wait for a day or so.” Hearing that, Philip nodded before he suddenly remembered the matter of the Multidew Herb. “By the way, is there any place in the imperial city that sells special herbs?” Hearing Philip's question, Conlay asked in wonder, “Didn't you go to Blossoms Valley earlier? What couldn’t you find there? Why would you want to buy herbs in the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family?” Philip sighed and told Conlay about what happened in Blossoms Valley. Conlay was shocked. He never expected such a thing to happen in the territory of the fire phoenix royal family. When Philip was about to buy some herbs, he saw a fight at the entrance of the imperial city. It was the fire phoenix royal family’s battalion. Philip looked carefully and realized that they were people of the fire phoenix general who left and had returned. The Great Preceptor’s people were bl
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light suddenly flashed in the Great Preceptor’s hand, and it soared into the sky. The sky rumbled. A cloud of fire enveloped the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family. Seeing this scene, Philip secretly speculated about the Great Preceptor’s strength. Judging from the situation and his methods, the Great Preceptor should have reached the peak of nine stars. “What other proof do you need? Isn’t it proof enough that the murderer is now in the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family? Do you need me to capture the murderer, Great Preceptor?” the seventh prince said at this moment. Compared to the sixth prince's elegance, he was more frivolous. Only the eighth prince remained silent, but he tightly held his spear in his hand. The soldiers of the fire phoenix royal family behind him watched his movements closely. At his command, they would rush into the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family without hesitation.
Conlay turned to the second prince who spoke to him and said, “I was framed by a villain back then and had to leave the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family to live in a quiet corner of the desert oasis and keep myself away from worldly affairs.” Then, Conlay turned around abruptly, looked at the sixth prince and the others, and said, “But not long ago, the fire phoenix general actually led his troops to the desert oasis to kill me. So you tell me, should I have killed the fire phoenix general?” Hearing this, no one in the imperial city spoke. It was well known within the fire phoenix royal family that Conlay was driven out of the imperial city in a scheme. Even those living in the imperial city were well aware of this. Seeing that Conlay had entered his role, Philip walked to Conlay's side and said, “I was with the ninth prince during the incident back then, and the fire phoenix general also died in my hands. “I’m here with the ninth prince today to seek justice
Purgatory! Conlay's heart sank. Purgatory was the fire phoenix royal family's final judgment on treason. Once a person entered purgatory, he was as good as dead. Conlay fell silent. The Great Preceptor said coldly, “Ninth Prince, since you can't make up your mind, why don't you let me help you?” As he spoke, his hand moved slightly. The fire cloud in the sky began to move. The scorching temperature shrouded the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family. “Please enter purgatory, Ninth Prince.” The Great Preceptor suddenly shouted, and the fire cloud in the sky produced a strong suction force at this time, trying to pull Conlay into the air. At the Great Preceptor’s sudden attack, Philip also made a move. A strong flame element appeared in Philip's hands, and level 6S flames spread all over Philip's arms in an instant. Philip grabbed Conlay’s shoulders as his feet left the ground. Philip threw out a flame chimera at the fire cloud in the sky. The flame ch
To Philip’s surprise, the sixth and second princes approached him not long after Conlay entered the cemetery. Seeing the expressions on their faces, Philip knew that they were trying to win him over. The sixth prince was the first to speak. “I think there must have been a big misunderstanding when you fought against the fire phoenix general earlier, but seeing that my ninth brother has someone like you by his side, as his elder brother, I feel relieved.” Philip said nothing. The sixth prince's opening remark was not interesting. The sixth prince glanced at the second prince and continued, “But with your talent, don’t you think it’s a waste to stay in that desert oasis?” Philip understood the sixth prince's meaning very well. He wanted to arouse Conlay's ambition to come back and fight for the throne. The second prince spoke at this time, “Conlay is back to atone for his crime. You haven't given him an explanation about the fire phoenix general yet, but you’re already tryi
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
