“Teacher, I discovered a secret.” Novak expressed his dissatisfaction without noticing Elijah’s state of shock. After all, Novak doubted Elijah would succeed. In that case, they had to arm themselves and make themselves stronger. The things in Philip's storeroom were enough for them. It would be perfect if they could force Philip to hand over those things. Elijah was puzzled and asked, “What did you discover?” Novak took Elijah into the storeroom and showed him the weapons. He believed that Elijah would be moved by those things. Sure enough, Elijah was dumbfounded. “What’s this?” he asked in surprise. “It’s a storeroom Philip uses to store all his treasures. It’d be great if we could take these for ourselves,” Novak said smugly as if he had made some important discovery. Elijah scowled and asked with a frown, “How did you find this?” Novak spilled the beans. Elijah’s scowl grew darker the more he listened until he clenched his fists. “Is that what you did?” Elijah
Novak could not figure out the situation. Hearing Novak’s retort, Elijah slapped him on the head again. Novak was dizzy and saw stars. “Shut up!” Before this, Elijah would simply apologize to Philip without being so humble. However, the situation was different now. He had witnessed Philip's power and would not take the easy way out. All the guilds easily submitted to Philip simply with a glance at the item he provided at random. No one else had this ability, at least not Elijah. Philip's identity was a mystery. That strong appeal could not be messed with. “I'm very sorry. This is my negligence. Please accept my apology!” Elijah bowed to Philip. Preston glanced at the sullen Novak and pursed his lips. “This guy is still so stubborn at this juncture! How dare you shoot your mouth away so arrogantly in front of my boss?!” Preston was upset with this arrogant man. Philip smiled without a word, leaving Elijah confused about his intention. Elijah gritted his teeth and mad
Neither Philip nor Preston paid attention to Novak when he passed out. Elijah felt sorry for Novak and found someone to carry him away. Novak was Elijah’s student, after all. It was difficult for him to give up on Novak all of a sudden. Elijah’s mood took a quick turn after he saw the weapons. He simply took a glance earlier without looking at the weapons carefully. Now that he was in the storeroom, Elijah was elated. He finally understood why Novak was tempted. Even a saint would be tempted by the sight here! Treasures beyond his reach could be seen everywhere. If this room was his treasure vault, the status of Mistral Temple would soar significantly. Those arrogant and domineering people could only bow before them. Only strength gave them confidence. Philip allowed Elijah to make his choice. These things were just junk produced by his people during their practice. Elijah took a long time making his selection and finally found a few pieces he liked. Philip smiled as
Everyone was surprised and puzzled to hear Elijah’s remarks. “Teacher, is there anything more powerful than our staff?” the ignorant students asked curiously. At the sight of their faces, Elijah thought of Novak again. “Hmph, you guys are so ignorant!” Elijah carefully took out the weapons from the bag and placed them in front of everyone. “Just look at these exquisite weapons!” His tone was full of pride, clearly showing off. Everyone gasped. They had never seen such amazing weapons before! The weapons exuded a faint luster that was dazzling to their eyes. “Teacher, are they for us?” someone took a weapon gingerly and looked at Elijah nervously. They could not believe these were gifts for them! Elijah nodded smugly. “Am I dreaming?” “Are these things really for us?” “I want this! It looks amazing!” Everyone started fighting over the weapons they preferred. At this time, someone mentioned Novak. “By the way, where is Novak? I think he’ll be happy to see th
“These items look valuable at a glance. They must be expensive.” “I believe any weapon here is enough to cause a sensation!” They knew these weapons were very valuable, and no one would be unmoved. Even some of the old hermits might be tempted, not to mention when there was such a large quantity of these weapons. “That’s right. Novak tried to steal these weapons when he saw them, and that’s a big violation. Besides, he was caught red-handed in the act. What do you think I should've done when the other party approached me?” Elijah threw the ball in everyone’s court. They were shocked to hear the truth. If they owned these weapons, they would be furious. Not to mention expelling the thief, they might even resort to killing. For a practitioner, a person's life was not worth mentioning. Upon reaching a certain level, it would not matter even if it was Novak. They could kill him whenever they wanted. In an instant, everyone thought the owner of the weapons was very graciou
Before Philip left, he found a carriage to transport him to Cosmo City. Since those people were paid to do the job, they hurried along and finally arrived at Cosmo City. At this time, Philip appeared in the carriage without exposing himself. After arriving at the destination, Philip pushed the curtain to the side and rewarded the other party with a few jade stones for transporting him so quickly. The carriage driver took the jade gratefully with an excited look on his face. It was his easiest job. All his previous jobs required more effort from him, but this guest traveled light, which added to his speed. “Thank you, sir. I’m at your disposal if you need me again!” The other party waved to Philip reluctantly. He wished he could become Philip's full-time driver. Philip paid the entry fee and entered Cosmo City. He was going to find Noelle next. If Philip was not mistaken, the crisis on the home planet would also endanger the Guzo Continent, but he did not know what the c
Philip laughed at the other party's cautious look. It was just a simple sheet of paper. Why would they go crazy over it? Philip walked to the newly opened Treasure House. Treasure House was not officially opened for business but at the renovation stage. Noelle decided to create some hype, which resulted in such a fuss. Philip walked to Treasure House and laughed when he saw the familiar decoration style. As expected from modern society, the style was very pleasing to the eye. Philip did not hide his presence, so Noelle immediately noticed him when he arrived at the door. She ran out with the others and stared at Philip with joy. “Philip, you’re finally here. We have been waiting for you!” Noelle said excitedly. Everyone rushed here to open the store so quickly that they were almost dead from exhaustion. A young kid stood next to Noelle. “Little Custard, are you doing well here?” Philip stroked his head. As an orphan, he did not have a name. After joining Philip, h
Granite frowned and cursed those people on Custard’s behalf. “They must've planned this! If Noelle didn’t have a secret technique for tracking down Custard, we would've lost him!” Granite smacked the table in anger. “Let’s put this aside for now. I believe the truth will come to light soon.” Philip felt that things were more than met the eye. There had to be a big secret behind this. However, the other party was lurking in the dark while they were out in the open, rendering them in a passive state. In that case, they could only wait and watch. When the other party exposed themselves, Philip would deal with them then. They had to be good enough to touch his people. Philip managed to voice Nolle’s thoughts, so they did not take action for now but simply opened the store and promoted it heavily. “By the way, the mayor dropped by once, but we didn't agree to cooperate with him. We simply said that we’d wait for your return. He wants a share in our business and to purchase p
