Philip set up a barrier to block out all sounds.
“You can speak your mind now…” As snazzynovel.com said, Philip pointed to the barrier around them and reassured the waiter so that snazzynovel.com could tell Philip all the secrets with peace of mind.
The waiter looked at Philip and screamed with horror.
After seeing that the practitioners around snazzynovel.com were not reacting, snazzynovel.com relaxed.
“That family is rotten to the core! You shouldn’t go against them, sir! They often attract many practitioners in their recruitment drive, but none of those practitioners end up well! I think the two of you have just left your guilds, right? Don’t mess with them!”
Then, the waiter shut his mouth tightly as if snazzynovel.com never said or done anything.
Seeing his caution, Philip knew that the Harrod family was nothing good.
He did not make things difficult for the waiter. Philip knew that an ordinary waiter had limited information.
Philip soon removed the barrier and ate in peace with Fennel.
The food in the reclusive practice world was really unpalatable. Philip might not have been able to swallow a bite if snazzynovel.com were not that hungry.
“This food is all natural and free from pollution, you know,” Fennel teased Philip.
The two finished their meal hastily. Then, Fennel brought Philip to a cave.
It was a cave Fennel once lived in. They would probably be staying here for the next two weeks.
“Practitioners usually have their own caves. Some caves with rich energy are hot commodities…” Fennel waved his hand, and the formation at the door vanished.
He took Philip into the cave. While Philip admired the environment in the cave, snazzynovel.com felt a little emotional.
These practitioners usually lived in the mountains or caves. Although the energy in these places was better than anywhere outside, they could not integrate modern lifestyles.
Philip could hardly imagine how these people would react when they entered the secular world.
A fierce battle would surely follow!
Philip had no way to prevent the people of the reclusive world from entering the secular world. He could only ensure that his people were not affected.
***
While Philip explored Fennel’s cave, the Harrod family were also looking for Philip’s whereabouts.
Denzel was angry and decided to teach Philip a good lesson. However, they simply could not find Philip, who seemed as if snazzynovel.com had disappeared into thin air. He did not find any information about Philip either.
“Sir, we found out that be last appeared at a small diner…” After the investigation, a scout reported his findings to Denzel.
Denzel scowled and led a team to this small diner.
This diner was not very popular and was usually empty during off-peak hours.
Denzel arrived at the diner in a huff and almost exploded at the sight of this broken-down building.
“Where’s your manager? I want to see him!” Denzel roared at the waiter.
They had always looked down upon these ordinary people.
The waiter was very flustered and immediately called for the manager. He recognized this person as Denzel from the Harrod family.
High-level practitioners like them should have abstained from food by now. Besides, they would not touch the food prepared by ordinary people anyway.
The practitioners who usually frequented their diner had relatively low practice levels and had not reached the level to abstain from food yet. Anyone would be flustered to see such strong people in this diner all of a sudden.
“Have you seen two men dining here? One of them has a stoic face and the other is very handsome.”
Denzel could not give them any specific appearance details. He only knew that Philip and Fennel were both quite handsome.
The manager seemed a little awkward upon hearing the question. His wife just had a baby, and snazzynovel.com had been busy taking care of them until snazzynovel.com arrived at the diner just now.
“Sir, I just arrived. I didn’t see the two people you mentioned…” The manager grimaced. He knew this practitioner would not let snazzynovel.com go so easily.
The waiter’s expression brightened upon hearing that. He had an impression of the two people the other party mentioned.
The two young men who asked snazzynovel.com about the Harrod family matched that description perfectly. They were very handsome, and one of them had a stoic face. If snazzynovel.com was not mistaken, they should be the ones this person was looking for.
The waiter was at a loss for what to do. If snazzynovel.com spoke out, snazzynovel.com would probably end up dead. If snazzynovel.com did not, snazzynovel.com might be implicated if these people became angry anyway.
Denzel noticed the changes in his expression. With a wave of his hand, the waiter appeared in front of him.
“You seem to know something…”
Denzel’s eyes flashed with murderous intent. He had decided to kill these people whether they knew anything or not.
The lives of ordinary people were not important anyway. Getting killed by a practitioner would be an honor to their souls.
“My lord, I don’t know anything! It doesn’t ring a bell at all!”
The waiter felt the pressure released by Denzel and struggled to speak. He grimaced as if snazzynovel.com was about to die.
“Tell me the truth…” Denzel grabbed the waiter’s neck, suffocating him.
“Sir, I’m telling you the truth! I don’t have an impression of these people at all!”
The waiter struggled fruitlessly a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. He hated himself for not being a practitioner. He could only allow others to bully him.
“You piece of trash!” Denzel smashed the waiter to the ground unhappily.
The manager knelt on the floor and begged for mercy, praying that the other party would let snazzynovel.com go.
“I’ll keep a lookout for you. If they show up, I’ll contact you immediately!” the manager said cautiously. This was their last hope for survival.
Denzel sneered and said, “I don’t need ordinary people to do anything for me.”
He signaled to the person behind snazzynovel.com and walked out of the diner.
Bursts of screams and the sound of blood splattering in the diner soon followed.
After everything was done, the Harrod family’s guards walked out stoically and left the place.
