Irvin's words dropped like a bombshell.
Apart from him and Verdant, everyone else in the living room had different expressions.
There was surprise in Philip's eyes, disdain in Nigella's, and shock and disbelief in the Page
family butler's eyes.
Two talents want to mess with the nine royal families that has taken root on the Starfall
Continent for many years?
It was nothing but a joke no matter how anyone looked at it.
Verdant smiled and said, "Irvin is used to being outspoken. Please excuse him. However,
that's the gist of it. The nine royal families have ruled over the continent without any
problems, but that's not the case for other practitioner families, many of which have been
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdestroyed."
Verdant looked up at Philip, the meaning in his eyes quite profound. There was a trace of
helplessness and longing too. It was the desire to take control of his own life.
"Therefore, I want to join forces with all casual practitioners not to stand against the nine
royal families and the ancient Heavenly Court but just to have the power to protect myself.
We don't want to be caught unaware in a deadly crisis," Verdant added while taking a
deep breath.
Philip saw a trace of sincerity in Verdant's eyes, which he admired the other party for. After
all, not many people would dare to make this sort of declaration. One careless move and
they would be completely wiped out by the nine royal families.
After a moment of silence, Philip said, "What backing do you have?"
This remark was quite forthright, but Verdant's eyes sharpened instantly.
He said, "I can contact more than a dozen pseudo holy talents! I'm ranked 38 on the nine-
star talent list, and I have the brains that many people don't have!"
Since Philip questioned Verdant, he had to prove his ability.
Philip's eyes narrowed. He seemed to understand why Verdant wanted to approach him.
Based on Verdant's explanation, he did not need Philip at all. After all, Philip was just a
nine-star practitioner. However, Philip was keenly aware that Verdant did not mention any
holy beings!
In other words, Verdant did not have a holy being in his group, and it was the biggest
drawback for his force.
How could he gain a foothold without a holy being?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I see..." Philip looked at Verdant thoughtfully.
He unconsciously tapped the armrest with his fingers, and a clear rattling sound could be
heard on the wooden armrest.
Everyone looked at Philip while Verdant said with a smile, "It seems that you've realized
my purpose. Let me know your thoughts."
Philip pondered for a while.
He had some people under his command. If he joined this alliance, he did not have to
worry about the hostility of the two royal families in the future, although he was not
particularly concerned about it in the first place. However, it was better to have less
trouble if possible.
With that thought in mind, Philip said, "I'm not sure if my teacher will join your alliance. If
he refuses, your plan will be in vain." Verdant grinned broadly.
