“Phil, you’ve been through a lot,” Wynn said gently. Despite a million thoughts in her mind, she could only manage this remark. Philip touched Wynn's head gently. He felt a lingering fear as he looked at his wife's pretty face. If he had returned too late, his lovely wife and daughter would have died from Golden Blood Syndrome. “Tale this medicine and your illness will be cured.” Philip shoved the Multidew Herb into Wynn's hand as if he was giving her something ordinary. “Mila, come and eat this.” Wynn beckoned to Mila. Mila ran over, took the herb from her mother, and stuffed it into her mouth. “Wow, Mom, this is tastier than chocolate. It’s sweet and melts in the mouth!” Mila grabbed her mother’s hand happily. Wynn swallowed the herb and felt it melting in her mouth. The sweetness made her feel comfortable all over. “Hey, Mom, you’re all dirty!” Mila covered her nose and exclaimed. “Ah, I’m dirty too!” Wynn and Mila screamed as they rushed to the bathroom
The call was hung up. Wynn looked at Philip apprehensively. “Phil, my mom wants me to go to Stardom Restaurant for dinner.” Philip guessed Martha’s intention. “It’s okay. I’ll go with you.” Philip gently stroked Mila's head and said, “Mila, stay at home and behave yourself, okay? We’ll be back soon.” Mila nodded seriously in agreement. Philip took Wynn to Stardom Restaurant in a car. The city streets were as bustling as ever. Although energy had recovered, the officials maintained the order very well. At least, normal people were not in danger, and social order was still preserved. They soon arrived at Stardom Restaurant. It was one of the top five-star restaurants in Rhineville. Only expensive ingredients were used, and the menu was specially catered for the wealthy. Philip and Wynn seemed a little out of place here. They wore simple outfits, while the other customers here wore branded clothes that exuded an air of nobility. Fortunately, the waiter did not judg
Martha scowled when she noticed Philip at the door. “Why are you here?” Martha's flattering smile faded, replaced with contempt. “What's this beggar doing here? Get lost! You’re not welcome here!” Martha looked at the private room nervously, afraid that Philip’s presence would make Gere angry. Gere noticed Philip, of course. He smirked and looked at Philip with interest. “There’s no hurry. After going missing for so many years, you must be starving by now. Why don’t you stay for a meal?” Gere spoke with a condescending tone that made Wynn very angry. “Hurry up and sit down. Do I need to invite you? I’m really ashamed to be associated with such a loser!” Martha kept throwing insults at Philip, and Wynn seemed more exasperated. Philip held Wynn's hand, sat at the other end of the table, and looked at them silently. Gere seemed very smug. He wanted to humiliate Philip in front of Wynn! He wanted Philip to know what power looked like. “You can order whatever you
Martha seemed disdainful. “He’s that person from the Clarke family! The most promising young patriarch of the Clarke family! It’s a pity that he has gone missing for three years. Now that the Clarke family is gone, the so-called most promising young patriarch of the family is nothing more than a loser!” The harsh words seemed to pierce through the depths of Philip's soul. “The Clarke family is gone?” Philip stood up abruptly. The first thing he did when he returned was to give the Multidew Herb to his wife and daughter. He did not have time to return to Arcadia Island to visit the Clarke family yet. Only three years had passed in the ancestral land. How did the world change so much? Philip frowned with a hint of murderous intent. If the Clarke family was gone, what about his father and the others? As the top family, Philip knew that many others coveted their wealth and power! If the Clarke family collapsed, everyone would swarm in and tear the Clarke family into pie
“Wynn, look. Gere is so powerful! If you stay with Philip, you’ll never enjoy a life of luxury!” Martha was full of yearning, wishing she could take her daughter's place. Before Philip left, he was the young patriarch of the Clarke family, and Wynn was the young lady of the Clarke family. She enjoyed an extremely noble status! Martha enjoyed a few months of luxury because of this. However, Wynn left the Clarke family for some unknown reason, and Philip disappeared for no reason. Later, the Clarke family was destroyed. The Clarke family, including Roger, Philip's youngest son, Nelson Clarke, and everyone who stood on the side of the Clarke family disappeared without a trace. After that, the world changed drastically. Nonagon experienced a riot and went through a reorganization! The Alliance and the Gentleman Court lost their power in the chaos. In just one month, both forces lost their leaders and became a legend in history! Even some established noble families went
Philip was not short of techniques. Restoring his energy veins was his top priority. Wynn drove Philip to the most luxurious pharmacy in Rhineville before heading home. Mila was still waiting at home, so she had no intention of wandering around. Philip came to the door of the pharmacy, saw the name Salvation Pharmacy, and could not help praising it. The person who wrote the calligraphy on the signboard must be an expert. The words contained a sharp profoundness. To be precise, the word ‘salvation’ contained some profoundness while the word ‘pharmacy’ was somewhat lacking. As soon as Philip entered the pharmacy, he saw a young man sitting in the middle doing a check-up for someone. “One number each, and each visit will cost 10,000 dollars.” A nurse maintained the order nearby. Philip clicked his tongue at the nurse’s words. If he had not noticed the price list on the wall, Philip would have thought that prices had increased several hundred times over three years.
As a well-known miracle doctor in Rhineville, he had a certain say over the prescription. With a quick glance, he could roughly tell that these ingredients were highly toxic. Although each ingredient was normal, the combined effects would be unimaginable. “Sir, do you need medical treatment? Take a number and I’ll take a look at you.” He looked pitifully at Philip, thinking that he was a fool who had been scammed. “Count yourself lucky for running into me today, or you’d have died from poison.” Everyone applauded and praised the miracle doctor for his words. “As expected of the miracle doctor. He can tell at a glance that the prescription is poisonous!” “What a promising young man!” Philip smiled and said, “It’s okay. I just want to buy these ingredients.” He deliberately wrote the prescription this way to prevent others from finding something wrong with the prescription and taking it for research. Philip took out 10,000 dollars from his pocket and put it on the c
Everyone thought Philip was joking. Only Preston himself was in disbelief. His hands trembled so badly that he could not even hold the pen properly. As everyone mocked Philip, Preston stood up. He grabbed stacks of money from the cash register and gave them to Philip. “Let's talk in private! If you can cure my disease, I don’t mind giving you those ingredients!” Amid everyone’s astonishment, Preston led Philip to a small room. The room door was slammed shut with a loud bang. Preston locked the door and turned to Philip expectantly. “Sir, please excuse my behavior just now. I didn’t expect that your medical skills were so good that you didn't even have to examine me to know my medical condition.” Preston felt extremely rueful. He even started thinking that Philip’s toxic prescription was meant to cure serious diseases! “Please prepare the ingredients in my prescription. I’ll take them with me later.” Philip pulled a sticky note from the side, wrote a list, and handed
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste
The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han
It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str
“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
The Hexa Guild also claimed that they would kill anyone from the Celestial Palace. Although upset, no one dared to say anything in the face of the other party’s strength. It would be embarrassing if they could not live up to their claims if they retorted now. Moreover, the battle was a matter of life and death. Everyone was risking their lives. The Celestial Palace had the confidence to face the Hexa Guild now. They believed that they could turn the situation around with their strength or at least show them what they could do. There would be a battle between the two parties in the afternoon, which was the best time to show off their strength. The young lady of the Celestial Palace would be the one contending. After improving her strength, Vanna was full of confidence and vowed to give her opponent a fatal blow or at least let them know how powerful she was. Ronan was nervous. He was not worried about his wife but worried that the Hexa Guild would take things too far. Those
It could be considered returning the favor. Jamie shook his head helplessly. He knew Philip’s kind intentions, but this matter was not so simple. “I know that your wine can improve someone’s strength, but it’s no help to us right now!” The overall strength of the Hexa Guild had increased so much that it went beyond anyone’s comprehension. Carlos turned up at this time. He wanted to talk to Philip about this matter, but Jamie beat him to it. “My friends just told me that the Hexa Guild is hellbent on dealing with everyone, not only us. Anyone up against them will be killed. They must be insane to face any guilds without fear!” Philip was intrigued. They could not be so confident for no reason. They must have encountered an opportunity. “Maybe they encountered an opportunity. I can't be sure about this, but I can at least provide you something to ensure that nothing happens to your people.” After saying this, Philip handed Jamie some pills. Philip was very confident about
It was very suspicious that a bunch of losers became so strong all of a sudden. “Philip, don’t you think something is wrong? I have a feeling that the Hexa Guild did something,” Jamie asked bluntly with mixed feelings about it. There was clearly something wrong with the Hexa Guild. Philip nodded. He had been watching the competition carefully. He could see that these people’s strength had just been improved, and their foundation was not very stable. “Don't think too much. There is a problem with them, and it’s not small either. From the looks of it, they must've taken something that can quickly improve their strength. However, their skills and combat experience can't keep up, so they can only barely manage it.” Philip shook his head helplessly. At this rate, even the members of the Celestial Palace would suffer. Moreover, the Hexa Guild held a big grudge against the Celestial Palace. Once they met, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. “What should we do? All th
“You should prepare for the competition.” Philip turned and left after saying that. Everyone felt angry at his domineering appearance. Some people had ideas about Philip. “Which guild does Philip belong to?” a man with a sinister face asked angrily. He wanted to know which guild Philip belonged to so that he could go all out to target Philip's guild. Others shook their heads. No one knew much about Philip. At this time, a spy from the Hexa Guild stepped forward. He looked at the man flatteringly and provided all the information he knew. “Philip doesn't belong to any guild, but he’s an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace!” The fact that Philip became an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace had not been made public. Only people keeping a close eye on the Celestial Palace knew about it. The Hexa Guild had always wanted to deal with the Celestial Palace, so they had been keeping a close eye on the latter. They knew all the minor details. The man scowled as if he did
“I can explore the secret realm on your behalf, but why do you think she’d appear there?” Although Philip could not figure it out, maybe the old monk had his reason for saying that. “I’ll explore the secret realm after the guild competition is over. If I can find the woman you’re looking for, I’ll think of a way.” In fact, Philip would rather take the old monk with him. He did not know what the woman looked like, so it was better for the old monk to do it himself. “Sure!” The old monk smiled brightly, surprised that Philip would agree so decisively. The secret realm was full of dangers. He knew that he should not let others take risks for him, but Philip did not ask any questions and even agreed to his request without any hesitation. “I’ll think about it and see if I can find a way to bring you in,” Philip said off-handedly. He still preferred to bring the old monk with him. The old monk was dumbfounded and thought he had heard it wrongly. “What?” The old monk gaped at
