Emery was watching the excitement, but he was taken aback by Delia’s enamored behavior. As a bystander, he could not bear seeing that. Emery coughed as a reminder to Delia, but she continued staring at Philip in admiration as if she did not hear him at all. In desperation, Emery had no choice but to nudge Delia on her head. “Stop looking at others like that!” Delia smiled in embarrassment at her father’s words. She thought she was stealthy enough, but everything was out in the open. “Oh no, was I that obvious?” Delia did not pay attention to the fight at all, which was out of her hands. She simply had to act pretty and wait for victory. As everyone was waiting for the next step, the members of the Pill Guild escorted two people over. The members of the Pill Guild were already frightened out of their wits by the scene just now, and their legs were trembling. Although they were practitioners, they were the weakest bunch of all. At first, they thought the guild l
Martha shouted frantically, afraid that Philip would give up on her. Skeeter glanced at Martha in displeasure. This woman was really annoying. Maurice condoned Martha’s yelling. The more excited she was, the more anxious Philip would be. “Stop shouting. This is the territory of the Smith Guild. Can’t you see how miserable these people look? They’ll definitely let us go. With my status here, what can they do?” Skeeter said in dissatisfaction, feeling very disdainful of Martha's cowardly behavior. Martha frowned at his sarcasm. “Hehe, when they first captured you, your behavior was worse than mine. Why were you not disgusted when you knelt and begged for mercy?” Martha was an arrogant person by nature. After enduring so much fear, she finally vented. Hearing their argument, Maurice glanced at Philip triumphantly. “Haha, Philip and Emery, as you can see, your people are completely at our mercy. If you want to save them, let’s have a chat. I won’t give in to you this time
Aslan could not stand this annoying woman any longer. He stepped forward and slapped Martha in the face. Martha immediately calmed down, but her battered face became worse. Philip nodded with satisfaction and agreed with Aslan's approach. Although he wanted to do it, he knew he could not. He was happy that someone did it on his behalf. “Am I safe now?” Martha exclaimed, pleasantly surprised that she was back to safety. Skeeter panicked at Martha’s rescue. “What about me? Save me!” Skeeter had no idea what he should do. It did not look like Emery was going to save him. Skeeter tried to speak to Emery, “Guild Leader!” His voice trembled with anxiety, fearing that Emery would ignore him. If Emery wanted to save him, he would have done so already. However, he took no action and even seemed like he was watching the fun. Skeeter was very worried about his attitude. In fact, Maurice was more worried than Skeeter. He did not expect that Philip would choose to
Skeeter was horrified that Emery would give up on him. As the guild’s senior member, he knew exactly how important his position was. The guild leader had never spoken harshly to him no matter what he did. That gave him all the confidence he needed. However, Emery disappointed him today. Emery was about to give up on an elite weaponsmith such as him. “Guild Leader, I recently found a new method of weaponsmithing. I’m sure that it can replace some traditional methods.” Skeeter was very worried to see Emery ignoring him. He started talking nonsense to display his value. Once he caught Emery’s attention, Emery would save him. The most important thing now was to survive. Even if Emery found out that he was lying, nothing would happen. After all, Emery was very lenient on him. “Cut the crap. An annoying person like you deserves this!” Delia said disdainfully. She had always found Skeeter to be a nasty person. Everyone felt very happy about Skeeter’s comeuppance.
Maurice held back on this attack. Anyone could have stopped the wind blade easily, but no one made a move. Maurice was very puzzled by this bizarre outcome. “What’s going on?” The reactions of the people from the Smith Guild were too strange for words. A member of their guild just died, so why were they smiling brightly as if they were about to pop a champagne to celebrate it? Delia jumped at this scene. Although Delia never interfered in the guild’s affairs, she was aware of Skeeter's thoughts about her. Delia had always been obsessed with good looks, so a short and old man like Skeeter did not attract her at all. However, he pursued Delia shamelessly, always hoping that Emery would marry his daughter to him. He even used various means to threaten Emery. After having had enough of Skeeter, Delia was in a very good mood. Other members could not contain their excitement and jumped for joy too. The biggest villain and troublemaker in their guild was dead! This w
Emery did not expect Philip to make such a decision. Everyone knew that a lot of resources were involved in this. The Pill Guild was an establishment with years of heritage and foundation. Moreover, they had taken over many large and small guilds recently, so they must have accumulated unlimited resources. However, Philip gave it up so casually. His resolve was unbelievable. At least, Emery would not have that fortitude. Maurice trembled in rage upon hearing Philip’s remark. He wished he could rip Philip into pieces. Although he had been defeated, he only lost to Philip! Handing him to Emery was an insult to him! “Wait a minute!” Maurice snapped. Even if he died, it had to be with dignity. Philip turned to Maurice in confusion. “You defeated me, so I can only admit that I’m not as good as you. But what’s the meaning of handing me over to another loser to deal with? Even if I’m going to die, at least let me die with dignity! “We're a reputable guild. You can't hu
Martha laughed at this scene. “Hehe, as I said, you’re nothing but a loser. What else can you do when you can’t even control the people under you?” Maurice was furious at Martha’s sarcasm. She went too far. Maurice glared at Philip and Emery and made a decision. No matter what method he used or what price he paid, he had to leave this place today. As Martha looked at him mockingly, everyone saw a blood mist in front of them. “Oh no, he’s going to self-destruct!” Aslan yelled. He stood in front of Philip warily. Although he knew that Philip would not be injured, he had to perform his duty as an underling. Everyone took action to set up a barrier to resist a practitioner’s self-destruction. Just when everyone thought Maurice would kill everyone by committing suicide, Maurice vanished right under their noses. Everyone was dumbfounded by this sudden turn of events. They did not expect Maurice to escape. He consumed a lot of energy to use a blood technique to escap
Montel had nothing to do, so he made a prediction. He found that Martha was in danger, so he looked for her and realized that she had gone missing. According to his prediction, Martha was in dire straits. He deployed everyone to search for Martha in the surrounding area. At this time, Aslan pulled Martha over. “She was kidnapped by a reclusive guild.” Aslan waved his hands unhappily. Montel’s worry was finally lifted, and he quickly called everyone to stop searching. Everyone hurried back after receiving the news, surprised that Martha was actually with Philip. They quickly learned the whole story from Aslan, who was the only talkative one among them. Wynn and Charles stared at Martha ruefully. No one expected Martha to land in such a mess. If Fennel had not rescued Martha in time, the enemy would have used Martha to threaten Philip. Martha knew she was in the wrong too. She did not expect to be targeted by these bad guys. She almost lost her life. However, Ma
