Upon Philip’s return, he glanced at the clock in the room. He had been there for several hours, but it had only been an hour here. Philip was excited at this discovery for getting such a big advantage. If the iron door had not been so rusty, he would have kissed it already. Philip quickly made plans to develop in the foreign land. His idea was to transfer his forces gradually. There were too many enemies in the ancestral land, and these ignorant people had no idea that a bigger world existed out there. Moving his people was the best option. With that security door in hand, Philip could travel whenever he wanted. Philip was thinking about his upcoming plans.…At the same time, Figo went home in a huff. Although Figo had taken advantage of Scarlet, he still felt unhappy about being humiliated by Philip. On the way home, he started crying. Figo returned home with tears in his eyes and sought out his mother for her comfort. He had never suffered such a great inju
“Don’t cry, my darling. Rest assured that I’ll seek justice for you. Even if the mayor’s son bullied you, I’ll definitely kick up a big fuss!” Kimberly had always been an unreasonable shrew and would do anything for her son. The Larson family was the wealthiest in Orbit City and had produced several practice talents in the imperial city. Even the mayor of Orbit City dared not mess with them. If anything happened, the mayor could only wallow in anger. The mayor was very glad that his wife gave birth to a son instead of a beautiful daughter. Otherwise, his daughter might be taken by that crazy Figo by force. Figo quickly stopped crying under his mother’s comfort and told her about being bullied by Philip. Kimberly scowled and said, “I can’t believe that an outsider dares to bully my son. He must be an ignorant villager who doesn't know how powerful our Larson family is! Don’t worry, my darling. I won’t let you suffer this injustice. If you see him again, let me know. I’ll a
“Let’s talk about it after we take care of Philip. We need to make some plans!” Kimberly said to Figo off-handedly. Figo was anxious and wanted to say something, but Kimberly glared daggers at him, so he shut up. It would do him no good to anger his mother. If she stopped giving him pocket money, he would have no money to spend on Scarlet. He had to attend Scarlet's auction in three days. Meanwhile, many people were gathered at the meeting room in Philip’s villa. They were elite figures in the villa and Philip’s most trusted comrades. Everyone expressed their desire to visit the foreign land after learning about it, including Wynn. “Is it the same place you went before?” Wynn was very smart and quickly figured out the key points in Philip’s brief introduction. Philip nodded and said, “Yes and no. This continent is divided into two areas. I went to the other area before, while this area is relatively easier. The place I went to before was very dangerous, full of sche
Montel had told everyone this prediction before Philip returned. Everyone wondered what to do. No one knew what this crisis was. Even with the Zucker family’s wisdom, they only found an estimated date after sacrificing many years of practice. Everyone was worried about facing this unknown fear. “Don’t worry. Since the date is June 17, we have enough time to prepare for it.” Philip felt that this time was not enough, but with the time difference between the foreign land and the ancestral land, it could buy them some time. Philip quickly decided. After some instructions, he took Aslan to the Guzo Continent. Aslan immediately felt the abundant energy. “Philip, this place is really different. Not even the ancestral land after energy was revived can compare to this!” Philip nodded. It was indeed the case. As a place exclusive for practice, they would get twice the result with half the effort here. “However, the people in this place aren’t that easy to deal with. After
Although Kimberly was unhappy about her son’s suggestion, she did not expect Figo to bring Scarlet back so quickly. Seeing this elegant and beautiful woman, Kimberly did not feel good about it. Kimberly had always treated her son as a treasure, so she could hardly accept his relationship with a beautiful woman. “Hello, Mrs. Larson,” Scarlet greeted Kimberly gently. She could feel Kimberly’s hostility toward her. At this moment, Scarlet resented the fact that her charm was only effective on men. If her charm had the same effect on a woman, Scarlet did not have to worry about this woman’s objections. Kimberly was just an ordinary and weak practitioner who could hardly withstand her attack. If this trick worked on women, Kimberly would be more subservient than Figo. Scarlet could only play the humble act and hope to reduce Kimberly’s hostility. As an employee of Bijou Parlor, Scarlet was a diplomatic person. Kimberly felt much better at Scarlet’s humble attitude. Sin
Scarlet was very worried that she would lose such a big customer if Figo persisted. The auction would be held in three days. Everything would be over if she offended Figo at this time. Figo thought that Scarlet was just being modest and quickly stepped in to put in a good word for her. In Figo’s opinion, they were madly in love with each other. After chatting pretentiously for a while, Scarlet finally left. Kimberly and Figo were quite pleased with the meeting. Over the years, Kimberly had never seen such a humble woman. Kimberly was happy that Scarlet was aware of her humble background and maintained this inferior attitude throughout the whole process. Kimberly hoped that this humbleness could boost her sense of superiority. No matter what, she had to be the queen of this household. “I can consider this matter for the time being, but the actual outcome will depend on Scarlet’s performance. If I’m not happy with her, you can forget about it,” Kimberly said loftily bef
The attendants saw Aslan’s reaction and felt a little confused. This was the first time they saw this reaction after working here for many years. Other onlookers seemed unhappy at this big guy’s pretentiousness. Obviously, this guy was belittling the products because he could not afford them. “How annoying.” At this time, Scarlet grumbled as she returned to Bijou Parlor. She wished she could smack the high and mighty look off Kimberly’s face. As the person in charge of Bijou Parlor, everyone always adopted a humble attitude in front of her. However, that ignorant and ridiculous woman dared to humiliate her like this. If not for her good upbringing, Scarlet would have killed her already. “If I ever see that woman alone, I’ll cut her into pieces!” Scarlet mumbled angrily as she walked. As soon as she entered the door, Scarlet saw a handsome figure. It was none other than Philip, who had been on her mind all day. Scarlet wanted to look for Philip, but he simply vanis
Philip burst out laughing at Aslan’s remark. Although he had noticed Scarlet’s tricks, he was considerate and did not expose her on the spot. After all, this might be Scarlet's business tactic. Exposing it might embarrass her. However, Aslan was different. He was a direct person and would never consider these issues. In his opinion, being forthright was the most honest and sincere way. Even after being exposed to the human way of life, Aslan still found it difficult to change his straightforward nature. Aslan scratched his head at Scarlet's explanation. “Really? How could you not know? I clearly felt the charm you used on me.” Aslan felt that this woman was very dishonest and gave her a bad rating. He preferred honest women. Fortunately, Aslan did not speak loudly, and no one around him heard him clearly. Before Scarlet could say something to ease the embarrassment, Figo hurried over. He had prepared some gifts for Scarlet, but she left in such a hurry that he
