Thinking of the various upcoming dangers they would face, Mason finally decided to cede to Yule after some deliberation. While Yule took a break from the fight, Mason pulled him aside. “I want to make a deal with you. If you’re willing to protect my safety, I’ll agree to one of your requests.” Yule sneered inwardly at Mason’s humble and flattering attitude. He never thought this guy would give in to save himself. Mason always thought highly of himself, but to survive in a dangerous place like East Hill Island, he was willing to abandon his so-called dignity and ask for help. “Hehe, since you mentioned it, I won’t refuse. Don’t worry, you can stay with my team. We’re comrades, after all!” Yule’s thinking was very simple. Although Mason could not hold a candle to Philip, he was a weaponsmith, after all. Maybe he could play a role at a critical moment. Thinking of this, Yule reached a deal with Mason. He did not want to miss such a good opportunity for no reason. If he a
“If you’re that strong, you may lead the way and bring us into that harmless palace.” Mason fell silent at Philip’s words. He had been simply shooting his mouth off without any plans in mind. It was impossible for him to lead the way. Mason chose to remain silent after glaring daggers at Philip. Everyone took out the food they prepared for the trip, and Mason took out some dry food from his storage ring. Mason had prepared a lot of food in his storage bag, but everything had been emptied out. Luckily, he had put some dry food in his storage ring or he would have starved to death. Yule and his party could not provide a lavish spread either. They also had some dry food that was portable and longer-lasting. On the other hand, Philip and his friends were very busy, but no one knew what they were doing. Mason and the others quickly sat down to eat and rest while Aslan and the others took out the things they had prepared. Whether it was a barbecue stove or various cooking equ
Yule did not expect that Philip would share his food with them. He was stunned by the gesture. “Thank you. We’d never have such delicious food if you weren’t here.” Yule took a bite without hesitation, smiling brightly. He never thought that he could eat such delicious food. Yule and his people almost went crazy over the delicious taste. They were very excited and wished they could join Philip's barbecue team too. Mason sat unhappily aside. Those arrogant people did not give him anything. “What’s the big deal with barbecued meat? It doesn’t look that good anyway.” Mason wiped his drool away. He kept mocking the barbecued meat and did not think there was anything special about it. At this time, Yule stood up and exclaimed in amazement, “As everyone knows, I’m the son of an important figure in Deadly Arena, but I’ve never eaten such delicious beast meat in my life! This is definitely premium cuisine made from premium beast meat. I’ll never give it up for anything!” Yule m
Yule made a swiping motion across his neck to intimidate his men. Everyone nodded solemnly. Of course, they knew not to reveal this secret. “Don’t worry, Yule, we’ll keep it a secret. We've eaten the meat and know how valuable it is. It’ll be dangerous if this matter is exposed.” “That’s right. They're so kind to share their food with us. It’d be too much if we repay kindness with ingrate.” Everyone spoke excitedly, and Philip smiled at their conscientiousness. They were quite sensible to keep this matter a secret for him. Everyone soon finished the meal happily, and Aslan even provided them with good liquor from his inventory. As practitioners, some liquor was nothing to them. Mason glared at everyone with envy and jealousy. No one offered him a bite until they finished their food. However, Mason was very headstrong and refused to give in to Philip even though he was drooling.Everyone knew that Mason did not get along well with Philip and the others, so no one put in a g
The palace looked very small from a distance, but it was actually so big that Philip could not see the end at a glance. Fortunately, they just had a good break or they would have been exhausted by now. “This place looks amazing,” Aslan marveled in surprise at this beautiful scenery. Just the luxurious appearance of this palace alone was more than met the eye. “Great, we finally reached the palace.” Yule was surprised at this mysterious place too. “If you hadn’t led the way, I’m afraid I would've gotten here on my own. It doesn’t seem like a good place.” The scary snakes alone were enough to keep everyone away. All the snakes were deadly creatures. It would be a dead end if they could not find the right direction in the fog. Mason could not wait to rush inside. He marched to the palace, thinking he could be the first to enter. To his surprise, he was stopped at the door. Some sort of barrier at the door blocked him. “What’s going on? Am I not allowed inside?” Seeing th
“Well, I can give it a try, but I can’t guarantee the result. This is clearly an ancient formation. Even a powerful weaponsmith like me can hardly break it.” To preserve his dignity, he had to make things clear. Since he had mentioned the background of this powerful formation, it would not be too embarrassing if he failed. Lyle and the others simply nodded and smiled without comment. Mason plucked up his courage and studied the formation. He knew that this barrier’s function was just to stop them without harming them. However, it would be different once he tried to break the formation. “I’ll show you.” Mason was not sure that he could break this barrier. At most, he could only weaken the barrier for a short duration and ask them to break it by force. Although this method was a little embarrassing, it was the best choice. Philip and the others simply watched without a word. Lyle grabbed a stool from somewhere and watched with a bright smile on his face. After some work,
Mason was very confident that Philip could not break this large barrier. Philip sighed and said, “You said it yourself. Once I break this barrier, you’ll do whatever is requested of you. To prevent Mason from going back on his word, Philip reiterated the deal. Mason nodded calmly. He felt that he was powerful enough. After getting Mason's affirmation, Philip walked forward and broke the barrier without hesitation. He did it so quickly that no one could react. Philip shrugged and pointed ahead. “I’ve destroyed the barrier. You may check and see if the barrier is still up.” Once the barrier was destroyed, they could enter and exit freely. Philip waited for Mason’s assessment with a calm smile on his face. Mason frowned, feeling that something was wrong. Although skeptical, Mason decided to check. If the barrier had been destroyed, it was enough to prove that Philip was a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, a weaponsmith like Mason could not afford to offend him.
“Aren't you afraid that the snakes will eat you if you stay? These snakes are not as simple as you think. I know a lot of information no one else knows about. I can be of great help to you if you take me with you.” At this point, Mason looked at Yule in a panic, hoping he would put in a good word for him. Yule looked at Mason awkwardly and helplessly. He had promised to protect Mason, but there was a premise for it. If Mason kept playing with fire, Yule could not keep protecting this troublemaker. “Don't look at me like that. I did say I’d protect you, but you’re making a lot of trouble for us now. If it weren't for you, we would've taken care of all the problems already.” Yule shrugged. He did have the idea of pleasing Mason and getting along with him, but the facts proved that he was not worth it at all. After hearing what Yule said, Mason became desperate. He panicked, feeling that his end was near. Mason glared at Philip vehemently before deciding to leave. At this ti
“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
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“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
