Khan was surprised to see such a straightforward man. He had always hated the roundabout way of human interaction, so he was pleasantly surprised to find Philip otherwise. He did not hate humans in general, just those who had twisted personalities and evil intentions. Those people were a great danger to monster beasts. Many people liked to hunt monster beasts for fun or kill to get their inner cores to improve their strength. There were many ways to improve one’s strength, and killing monster beasts to get their inner cores was the worst option. However, he was also aware that beasts killed each other too, just like humans. The friends Aslan brought to escort them back were pretty good, and Khan was happy. After seeing Philip, he felt that maybe things were different from what he imagined. Philip’s mannerisms surprised Khan. There were many people in their group. Fortunately, Philip had many houses too. “Let’s get you settled down first. The villa behind us is for you,” P
The kid frowned at the sight of Khan’s frantic look. “What's so precious about these pills? If you want them, just take them. Don’t disturb us from having our class.” His understatement completely destroyed Khan's outlook on life. “What’s wrong with kids nowadays? They don’t even care for precious pills like these and treat them like jelly beans. Hehe, since you want to give them to me, then don’t regret it!” He carefully put all the pills into his pocket, afraid of ruining them. Aslan could hardly hold his head up. He thought having such a family was something to be proud of, but these people were simply embarrassing him right now. “Everyone, please behave yourselves and don’t embarrass me!” Aslan rushed out in exasperation, trying to stop his father. Khan smacked him, almost knocking him into the wall. “Dad, you can tell me if you want more pills. I can give you as many as you want! You’re embarrassing me by taking the pills from these kids!” Aslan took out a handfu
Aslan only recalled that he had a storage ring after Khan mentioned it. “Do you like this storage ring very much?” Aslan glanced at his father curiously. “Dad, don’t you even have a storage ring after being around for so many years? What a failure. I got one not long after I wandered out!” Aslan mocked his father. The others laughed at Aslan’s provocation. Khan clenched his fists, wishing he could beat up this unruly son. Aslan was simply asking for a beating for saying such things in public. Aslan did not show him any respect as the king of the monster beasts! “Dad, if you like it, let me give you one each.” Aslan expressed his opinion before Khan could speak. No one could call themselves a member of the villa without this standard equipment. Besides, such things were just a byproduct of the kids’ daily practice, and they could have as many as they wanted. Even if they wore one on each finger, there would be enough storage rings to go around. Aslan even felt he could b
Sure enough, the other monster beasts were caught by horror and disbelief after getting the rings too. They checked their rings with pride, excited to get a storage ring. This thing was so rare that they had not seen one before, but they received one so effortlessly now. Khan excitedly grabbed Aslan, who was caught off guard and almost stumbled. “Tell me how you got these rings!” Khan wished he could get into Aslan's mind and find out the truth. Aslan shrugged and said, “The kids made the rings, and that’s their teacher.” Aslan pointed to Philip, leaving Khan in disbelief. He never dreamed that these things belonged to Philip. “How can you own so many storage rings at such a young age, and how can your people make these things?” Khan asked in confusion. Khan was not interested in the smithing technique. After all, monster beasts were unable to make pills or weapons by nature. He was just curious about Philip’s background which allowed him to develop his force so lavishl
Aslan nodded. It was all thanks to Philip. He was very lucky to have Philip teach him. “I'm different from them. They learn really fast, but I can only make a little progress with Philip teaching me step by step. In fact, this is my limit. Philip suggested that I should forget about alchemy, but I think I did good enough for a monster beast.” Philip was not aware that monster beasts could not make pills. He simply thought Aslan was not cut out for it. Usually, Philip only had to guide them a little for them to improve by leaps and bounds. Aslan, on the other hand, required his personal guidance to master the technique. As a monster beast that could breathe fire, Aslan could not even control fire properly! Philip went to great lengths to teach Aslan how to make pills and finally gave up. Aslan simply had no talent for it and would be better off just being a bodyguard. After Khan received Aslan’s affirmation, he turned to Philip with blazing eyes. “Everything is like a dream!
Philip shrugged and asked someone to invite Elijah over to give Khan a surprise. When Elijah appeared, Khan almost had a mental breakdown. Since Elijah was here, it meant he was at his wit's end and came here for help. “You look familiar. You should be that kid from back then. Don't tell me...” Khan said in despair. Elijah nodded in embarrassment. He had met Khan on several occasions. However, he was very young back then, so he did not expect Khan to have an impression of him. Khan was dejected by Elijah’s response. He turned to Philip and forgot all about alchemy. Everyone would perish if this matter was not handled well. “I don’t know what to do, but I've joined forces with all the major guilds to deal with those creatures together.” Elijah knew that Mistral Temple was not as strong as before, but with Philip's help, he managed to gather many forces together. They could play a big role at critical moments. Khan nodded helplessly. He was not very confident about joinin
Philip handed a storage ring to Aslan and asked him to distribute some things. “Give these pills to everyone. We’re likely to face various dangers from now on. It’s important to restore our strength quickly.” There were various pills to heal injuries, restore energy, and improve their strength. Philip also prepared a lot of herbs for them. Compared to people from Mistral Temple, the monster beasts were more of his own. Seeing this, Aslan was excited and knew what Philip was up to. “Don’t worry, Philip. Leave it to me!” Philip simply nodded. Aslan took his father and the others to the room, leaving Elijah behind. Elijah knew that Philip had given them a great opportunity. He wanted to request for the same but stopped at the thought of his identity. Philip had given him enough weapons, and it was already a great favor. There was no need for him to request more. “You can tell them more about the sealed land when you have time and discuss with the other guilds to find a way
Alton scowled. Who was not having a hard time? “Have you heard of Treasure House?” Mark asked worriedly. He wanted to seek Alton’s help to get rid of Treasure House. However, Mark had no idea who stood behind Treasure House, so he could not help but worry. He was guarded against such an unfamiliar force. Alton glanced at Mark with a glint in his eyes. He was just about to seek Mark’s cooperation to deal with Treasure House, but Mark turned up at his door first. In that case, he would speak his mind. “Treasure House isn't only going to increase the popularity of my city, but it can also drive economic development here. Why do you think I should help you?” Alton spoke directly, obviously asking for benefits. “Bijou Parlor has always been sharing long-term profits with you. Once our business is affected, your profit will drop significantly too. It won’t be that easy to find someone to treat your son by then,” Mark said. Mark was quite confident that Alton would remain on h
“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
