At this moment, Philip heard the sound of light and familiar footsteps. Philip subconsciously looked outside and saw Clementine. He felt exasperated at the sight of Clementine sneaking around and shooting her videos. This woman would be easily discovered if she walked around here openly. Everything would be over if she attracted the attention of the guards. Without further ado, Philip opened the lab door and pulled Clementine into the room. Clementine was completely focused on taking photos around the lab and did not even notice another person next to her. The next moment, Clementine was pulled into a laboratory. She was horrified and wanted to elbow the assailant but caught a familiar smell. Clementine was just about to turn around when Philip shoved her aside. “It’s you!” Clementine smiled brightly at Philip. She knew she was in safe hands now. Although Clementine had some skills, at least enough to keep herself alive, the feeling was different when she was wi
“I-In the past three years, we've probably sacrificed tens of thousands of people, but many of them are homeless,” the old man admitted as if his sin would be lesser if he did so. Clementine scowled. She did not speak but recorded everything with her camera. The camera was hidden in Clementine's clothes, so she only had to face the other party to get a clear picture. The recorded videos would be uploaded directly to her cloud storage where no one could steal or hack the information inside. Clementine had been collecting these precious materials for a long time, and they could be considered priceless. Compared to her usual exploration and uncovering secrets, Clementine was doing something serious this time. She was delighted at the thought of the social repercussions after this case was made public. “Where's the Larson family?” That was Philip's biggest concern. He wanted to know if any harm had befallen the Larson family over the years. The old man was extremely tor
Sure enough, Albert fell into despair at Philip’s words. He did not expect Philip to know so much. Philip felt amused at Albert’s foolish reaction. “I know everything you’ve done over the years,” Philip sneered. It was obvious that Albert had been up to no good. “Now that you know everything, I’ll tell you the truth! Philip, I can tell that you’re a powerful expert. I want to recruit you to join our team. Have you seen this lab? Do you know how much time and energy have been spent on building it? We run all kinds of genetic research in this lab, including focused research on practitioners!” At this point, he grabbed a document on the table and handed it to Philip. “Aren't you amazed that these studies can help ordinary people become practitioners?” Philip flipped through the document thoughtfully. In general, the content showed that they had discovered a way to transfer the power of practitioners to ordinary humans. Once this approach could be implemented on a large s
The other party was clearly making use of him, but he was grateful to them instead. Once this matter came to fruition, Albert would not gain anything at all. Other families had contributed money, effort, and talents. How could they allow the credit to go to a brat who popped out of nowhere? Albert would not be able to continue living a luxurious and enjoyable life when the day came. Since he had betrayed the Larson family, there was no more use for him. The other party was still willing to keep him simply to display the contrast between his luxurious life and the sufferings of the Larson family. Over time, the other family members would gradually choose to give in. “Do you think that's possible?” Philip mocked. This guy was really naive. Albert scowled at Philip’s retort. Even though his position was far superior, Philip still refused to respect him! Philip was the young patriarch of the Clarke family, an outstanding genius, while an ordinary person with an average
“I can see that you really have no brains,” Philip said flatly, not taking Albert seriously at all. Albert scowled, wishing he could kill Philip. He vowed to kill this man who stole his limelight and record the whole process to show everyone. He, Albert Larson, who was totally crushed by Philip back then, could now easily take him down! Thinking of this, Albert took out his mobile phone and put it on recording mode. “Today, I'm going to show everyone how good you are, you loser!” Albert smiled brightly as if he could already see himself killing Philip. Philip laughed from the bottom of his heart. He had concealed his strength all this while. Although he was already extremely powerful back then, Philip always claimed that he was only slightly better than the most outstanding people. Furthermore, Philip always controlled his performance to showcase exactly that. However, when someone surpassed him, they would quickly discover that he was another step farther from th
Albert seemed very smug upon hearing Philip’s words. He hoped that he could persuade Philip to join his team too. He usually worked alone and felt a little lonely. Although this guy was a talent, things were different now. He must be stronger than Philip. If Philip joined him, Philip could only become his subordinate. “If you want me to join your team, you have to give me some good conditions. What do you have to attract me?” Philip said seriously without beating about the bush. Albert shook the potion in his hand at Philip’s interest. “This thing will be good for you.” Albert flicked the cap open with a smile and swallowed it in one gulp. He was so fast that Philip could hardly react. It was as if Philip would snatch it away if Albert was a second slower, so he had to be cautious. Philip watched Albert silently. Clementine helped Grandpa up and stood aside while staring at the scientists warily, not forgetting to record everything. Probably only Clementine coul
Philip walked to the door. Albert kept urging him along, which annoyed Philip. Clementine gritted her teeth, helped Grandpa up, and followed them. This lab was not safe. She would probably be trapped if she remained here. Soon, Philip followed Albert to a training ground where they usually trained. Philip subconsciously used a camouflage pill to modify his appearance. Although he looked somewhat similar to his original appearance, there were subtle differences in other areas. Most of the people training here wore the same uniform with the word ‘guard’ on their chests. Philip was surprised to find himself in the thieves’ den. However, he could feel that these people were not that strong and not that difficult to deal with. Clementine staggered over with Grandpa in tow and saw this scene. She backed away in fright and found a room to hide in. With so many guards around, Philip would definitely arouse everyone's suspicion if he rushed in. A fierce battle would inevitably
Philip knew that this guy was no good, so there was no need to waste time with him. Albert patted his chest. “If you can beat me, I’ll introduce you to Mr. Tate, and we’ll flourish under his command. Doesn’t that sound wonderful?” Albert said smugly. He had always envied others for having underlings, but no matter how he tried to please those people, no one was willing to follow him. Now that a family member was here, there was an extra layer of kinship binding them compared to others. Although Albert was upset with Philip, there was no problem in taking advantage of him. His objective was simply to show Philip how strong he was. Philip laughed. This guy was ignorant and idiotic, shameless to the extreme just to show off his strength. He believed that even if Albert was fully prepared, it would never occur to him that Philip had far surpassed him. Philip would teach him a good lesson and dig all of Mr. Tate’s information out of him. “Cut the crap and start fightin
“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
