Thinking of this, Denzel's attitude grew more arrogant. “If you dare to force me, I’ll eat this pill and no one will get it in the end!” Denzel played tough, making it difficult for the others. Stealing was not a problem, but they were afraid that Denzel would destroy the pill in his anger. “If you really want this pill, why don’t you look for the person who made it? That young man has agreed to join us and will serve the Harrod family from now on! If we produce this pill again in the future, we can consider selling it at a high price, and you can just buy it when the time comes.” Denzel chuckled. He wanted to use his wit to convince everyone. “Harmony is the best policy!” Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. They knew that the best option was to find the young man who made the pill, but who knew if he was the one who made it? If he was just bragging, what should they do? Since there was an existing pill here, everyone wanted to get their hands on it first. “Wh
The news quickly spread among everyone present. Even Philip and Fennel overheard the whole story, which was quite exciting. Denzel and Paco scowled darkly. “I won’t allow you to speak of my sister like that!” Denzel threw fireballs at everyone, but the fireballs were not very powerful and could only serve as a deterrent. The old man laughed even more loudly at Denzel’s words. “Oh, is that disgraceful woman your sister? The Harrod family is very kind for not kicking her out of the family yet!” The old man almost fell to the ground from laughing so much. Paco was furious at this scene. He did not care if someone laughed at the Harrod family, but these people were insulting him. So what if he was a monster beast? “Are you saying that you look down on monster beasts?” Paco said with a cold killing intent. Feeling the overwhelming murderous intent, everyone stopped laughing. The old man felt his strength and became serious. He could feel that the other party was re
As Denzel and Paco were lost in anxiety, Rick smiled as he escaped. Although Rick did not take action, he had a powerful technique that allowed him to make a swap. He could steal anything even under Paco’s nose. Rick carefully put the pill into a box he had already prepared. Members of the Pill Guild had their unique way of storing pills. He had to hurry back to the guild. He had to inform the elders of the guild about this magical pill. To prevent Paco from chasing after him, Rick ran as fast as he could back to the guild with his Earth Traversing Technique. When he arrived, the elders were having tea with the guild leader. They noticed his miserable state and frowned. “I've told you many times to pay attention to your image when you’re outside. As a senior member of the Pill Guild, you represent us wherever you go!” The First Elder, Oscar, said angrily. Rick was none other than his student. Seeing the wretched look on his usually elegant and obedient student,
First Elder Oscar wanted to speak up on Rick’s behalf at first, but he felt embarrassed after seeing the jelly bean presented. He wished he could stuff his head into the ground if there was a hole right now. Rick saw everyone's reactions and read their thoughts. “Don't get me wrong. This pill is perfectly made!” At first, Rick also thought it was a jelly bean with nothing special about it. However, he witnessed how Philip had quickly recovered from his injuries and restored his energy after taking the pill. It was enough to prove that this pill was genuine. With only one pill in hand, he could not prove it to them. The only choice was for the leader to study it. Seeing Rick’s excitement, Oscar hesitated. He felt that he could trust Rick. “Leader, why don’t we study the pill?” Oscar suggested nervously. Although he also thought it was a jelly bean, he chose to believe his student in the end. Rick looked at Oscar gratefully and smiled brightly. “Thank you, tea
Rick nodded with certainty, and the leader scowled. He did not expect to hear Denzel Harrod's name. Denzel was nothing special, but the Harrod family was difficult to mess with. It was not that easy to steal someone from the Harrod family. “Also, the monster beast son-in-law of the Harrod family is back. I almost got killed by him just now!” Rick felt a lingering fear. He did his fair share in mocking Paco. If he had been more conspicuous, he would have met the same fate as the old man. The leader's expression became more serious. After much deliberation, he decided to talk to the Harrod family in person. “I’ll arrange a time to meet with the Harrod family. I hope there’s nothing wrong with your information.” The leader sighed and decided to talk to them in person. Now that the Harrod family had taken the lead in acquiring the pill maker, the Pill Guild had lost the head start. In that case, the leader could only take a step back and find a way to talk to them.
Paco did not have a good impression of the Harrod family. They only saw him as a burden and a disgrace. They never said anything good about him. As the supreme king of the eagle monster beasts, how could he tolerate stupid humans humiliating him like this? If his son were not in the Harrod family, he would have already regarded them as his enemies. “You stay here for now. I'll meet them.” Denzel opened the door solemnly and hurried to the living room. The leader of the Pill Guild had the same status as their family head, so he was sure that the head of the Harrod family would not dare to neglect him. Sure enough, when the leader arrived at the living room, he found that many people were already there. The leader of the Pill Guild and the head of the Harrod family sat drinking tea without speaking. Denzel felt nervous at this scene. Denzel was considered an ordinary family member, so his appearance did not cause any commotion. The leader and family head smiled afte
If they had a conflict, Maurice still stood a chance. If he offered some reasonable terms, he could definitely win over this person. Anyone could be bought over. He just needed to offer the right terms. Maurice smiled brightly at this thought. Elmer was a smart person and immediately knew Maurice was up to no good. If Denzel really found a talent, he would not give up so easily. Elmer smiled awkwardly and said, “Who knows if that’s the truth? Maybe they're making up stories. If there's such a person, why would he join the Harrod family?” Elmer had a point. Although the Harrod family was quite powerful, alchemists would generally not choose to join them. They could develop better in a guild while joining a family would only mean servitude. Hence, alchemists would usually choose to join the Pill Guild. “Nothing is set in stone,” Maurice said with a smile, not backing down. If the Harrod family still wanted to do business with the Pill Guild, they had to compromise.
As the saying went, the grass was always greener on the other side. It was normal for the reclusive world to go to the secular world to seek better development. “We have no control over this, and no one can stop the practitioner world from making a choice,” Fennel said helplessly. He knew that this was a difficult matter to deal with. Once the reclusive world merged with the secular world, all the commoners would suffer. Even the officials would not be able to do anything. There were too many powerful people in the reclusive world with no one to govern them at all. Without the existence of a leader, they would do whatever they wanted. As the two discussed this serious topic, Denzel and Paco found them. Philip did not deliberately hide his tracks, so it was easy to find him. Denzel stood in front of Philip, panting. He was so worried that Philip had escaped and he would be doomed. Philip and Fennel looked at Denzel’s miserable state in puzzlement. Why did this guy
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
