Selma’s question reminded Philip that such myths and legends did not exist in this world, so they would not know who Quetzalcoatl was. Philip was willing to help because he thought that this woman was very likely a descendant of Quetzalcoatl. Only Quetzalcoatl looked like this in the myths. Quetzalcoatl was a deity with a human body and a snake tail similar to Selma. She was beautiful and was said to have played a key role in the world’s creation. Although Philip had no idea what ability Selma had, he could tell that she was not weak—at least much stronger than he imagined. If the dumb diners outside thought that Selma was a pushover, they could not be more mistaken. She could not only wring their necks easily but also obliterate them. “I just recalled a mysterious legend. I can’t be sure of your origins. Maybe we can find something when we enter the so-called secret realm. I’ll set off after the family competition.” Philip quickly got some information about their family an
Philip simply wanted to find out what the woman had done to Rabbit. “Taking something without permission is considered stealing. Your behavior makes it difficult for me to forgive you.” They recognized this woman as the host of the family competition. She was a beautiful woman, and many people took part in the competition because of her. After the competition, they were still fascinated by her and felt depressed because they could not catch her attention. Many people recognized her, so they were annoyed by Philip’s tough attitude. They thought that Philip should not treat their goddess so badly. “That must be Philip. Why is he so high-handed? He broke into the room while someone was taking a bath and wanted to mess with her too. He’s really rude!” “Maybe he thinks he has enough treasures to do whatever he wants!” “I won’t allow such people to go scot-free. This city is governed by humans, and we have to abide by the rules. So what if he’s human? Anyone who doesn’t follow
It would be fine if Selma was so unique that Ronan could not tell her situation, but what about the woman in front of him? “You must have some unique abilities to become the host of this competition. I don't want to do anything to you. I just want to get my rabbit back. If you refuse to let go of him, don’t blame me for doing anything.” Philip beckoned Rabbit, and Rabbit appeared in Philip's hand. Ariadna grabbed Rabbit in a panic, but it was useless. She could not control Rabbit at all. “How did you do that?” Despite thinking about it, Ariadna could not imagine why Philip’s control over Rabbit was so strong. “You stole it from my hands!” Ariadna's hands were shaking. She had been absorbing Rabbit’s energy before Philip arrived. Although it was just a small portion, it was enough for Ariadna to practice for a while. She was going to absorb more, but Philip turned up at her door and took Rabbit away. She could not accept this huge blow. “Give the rabbit back to me!” By
“So, what is she?” Although she did not show obvious characteristics, Philip could tell that she was not human. “Don't ask me. I don't know. I just know how wicked she is. How could she hurt Rabbit so badly?” Ronan shook his head helplessly, feeling sorry for Rabbit. He just wanted to find love but ended up like this. “I think Ronan is right!” Rabbit nodded thoughtfully. In hindsight, Rabbit could not figure out why he was attracted to her. “She’s a spider,” Selma interrupted. Everyone was shocked. That creature was a spider! “How could she conceal herself so well? Is she the same as you?” Indeed, Philip thought she concealed herself very well. At least Philip could not recognize her identity. Hearing this, Selma shrugged helplessly. “I don’t know if there’s another example like me, but I know that she’s not easy to deal with. She freaks me out.” Rabbit felt like throwing up when he heard that the woman was a spider. “What? A spider? I actually took a bath with
Rabbit was confined by Philip while the others stayed there by choice, so he became more frustrated as time went by. “What’s wrong with staying here? I feel that I've improved a lot during this time!” the water monster said with smug excitement. “That's right. My withered wood has revived, and we nurtured a small tree too.” The two tree monsters lowered their heads shyly, feeling very happy too. Rabbit rolled his eyes at them. “The outside world is very fun with various things going on and interesting people to see. You’ll only become more ignorant by staying here. You need to explore the world from time to time. Philip has mentioned that you can go out anytime you want!” Rabbit tried to persuade them. Rabbit could not figure out why they enjoyed staying inside so much. This place was boring with nothing to do, but they could stay there for so long at ease. Their perseverance was simply amazing. “You don't understand at all. We have our loved ones here, and we can also im
“Have you ever seen a spider woman?” Ronan tried to scare the waiter. He hated such people who lost their minds because of superficial looks. There was no point for them to continue living. The waiter frowned and looked into the distance. He had contacted the owner of the tavern, but he was not here yet! “Forget it. Let’s go.” Philip wanted to find out more about the spider woman, so he urged everyone to leave. Staying would only cause unnecessary trouble. Everyone agreed and turned away from that foolish waiter. The waiter was very angry at this scene and wanted to attack Philip. Someone noticed his reaction and reminded him, “As a waiter, I’m surprised that you’re bold enough to speak so rudely to him.” “It seems that I’ve underestimated your guts.” “I think you’re lucky to stay alive. Alas, you should listen to more gossip when you have time!” Everyone sighed and agreed that the waiter was very lucky. Indeed, the waiter was not updated with recent gossip. He had
The waiter was very scared and wanted to beg for mercy. “Oh no, I offended that person this time! Please help me out. How can I ask for his forgiveness?” This world followed the laws of the jungle. He felt that he was in danger of dying. Everyone sneered and ignored him. The waiter’s mistake had nothing to do with them.… As the waiter suffered a mental breakdown, Philip returned to Selma's residence. Selma and her people had been doing business in this place for a while. Although they had not found someone to help them solve the crisis, they still made a lot of money. Philip sighed in amazement at the sight of her luxurious house. “I can’t believe your good taste. This house is luxurious at first glance. Ordinary people won't appreciate such a place.” Philip was not referring to the luxurious decoration style but the materials used. Philip sensed an energy-gathering formation too. An energy-gathering formation was a lost art whether in this world or other worlds. Alth
The others were not so quick on the uptake and were still thinking about the spider woman. “Selma, since you know that spider woman, maybe you can tell us more about her.” Philip went straight to the point. “In return, I’ll modify your energy-gathering formation.” Selma nodded at the suggestion. “No problem, I’ll tell you what I know.” Hearing that, Philip waved at the open space in front of him, uprooting the energy-gathering formation that was buried underground. Everyone was stunned by the sight, especially the butler, who almost went crazy. It never occurred to him that Philip would so easily dig out the energy-gathering formation they had worked so hard to hide. “What the hell?” He looked at Philip in horror, shocked by his action. Philip shook his head. “This so-called energy-gathering formation is so indiscreet that it even has a solid entity. Are you inviting others to steal it?” Philip calmly manipulated the energy-gathering formation, which soon vanished from th
“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
