The First Heir Chapter 1025
Phoenix Pavilion, Phoenicia. The four Phoenix brothers were gathered together at the moment, wining and dining merrily. “Wallace, since Mr. Clarke and Theo are dead, the underground chamber of commerce this time will be different. When the time comes, a big piece of cake like Riverdale will definitely be popular.” The fourth brother, Gerald Phoenix, held the red wine in his hand. His face was full of joy. “In my opinion, we did a big favor to those people in the South River District. We’ll score a piece of this cake,” the third brother, Harvey, said. Only the second brother, Jerome, with bandages on his hands and accompanied by a special nurse, asked in a deep voice, “Wallace, what do you think?” Wallace stood in front of the large French window with his hands behind his back, looking at the darkening sky in Phoenicia, After a brief silence, he said, “Don't intervene in the affairs of the underground chamber of commerce for the time being. Let those big bosses fight it ou

At the same time at Fenix Hotel and Restaurant in Ken Cooke’s suite. Yana sat on the sofa with a vague look of joy on her face and said, “Master Ken, you’ve also received the news, right?” Ken put his hands in the pockets of his suit trousers and stood in front of the window, looking far away. His thoughts were unknown. He said, “I received it. Something happened to Theo and that Mr. Clarke.” “This is good news for us,” Yana said. Ken shook his head and turned around, looking at Yana with a profound look. He asked, “Do you think this news is reliable?” Yana shook her head and said, “No.” “Why not?” Ken asked and sat opposite Yana. Yana got up, stepped forward, and walked to the wine rack to pour two glasses of red wine. She said, “Because Bowen Roy’s people are all gathered in the north of Phoenicia and haven’t moved a single step.” Bowen Roy! When Ken heard this name, his heart suddenly tightened. Yes. Bowen had supposedly joined that Mr. Clarke, but now that t

The city was full of volatility. On this night, Phoenicia was very lively. There were twice as many people on the streets than usual. The underground chamber of commerce was taking place ahead of schedule tonight at an ancient building in Phoenicia. It was a theater lobby. It was an ancient theater that had been handed down ages ago. The place had carved beams, red tiles, and lamps hanging everywhere—making it seem extremely lively. At this time, the ancient theater building was heavily guarded both inside and outside. An endless stream of various luxury cars drove in from the gates of the building and stopped on the red carpet in front of the main entrance of the theater. From inside the cars, glamorously dressed prominent figures walked down one after another, accompanied by their female companions. They entered the venue one by one! To the outside world, these people were infamous leaders in their respective areas! Big bosses in their own rights! Tonight, they we

At this moment on both sides of the stage, many big bosses from various districts were stepping out from backstage to the front to take their seats. “Oh, Mr. Wood, long time no see.” “Haha, Mr. Saunders, you’re here too.” Several people who knew each other greeted politely. On the surface, they were courteous like blood brothers. As soon as they sat down, however, their faces became cold. They were each thinking of ways to crush the other party later! Soon, the main guest arrived. “Master Cooke is here!” someone shouted in the crowd. The leaders who were all seated got up and smiled at Ken Cooke who was walking out from backstage. Ken, dressed in a black suit, looked vigorous with a ruddy complexion. He was determined to win the top spot tonight. “Master Ken, please take a seat. I’m afraid you’ll be taking the main seat tonight.” Someone stepped forward at this moment and flattered. Ken waved his hand and said, “Hey, the most important thing is to participate.”
The First Heir Chapter 1029
The majestic and elegant Shawn Hane walked out from backstage under everyone’s gaze. His face was ruddy as he politely greeted everyone. Two assistants followed behind him, both middle-aged men who appeared calm and serious with torch-like gazes. They did not look like ordinary people at first glance! They were experts from the Hane family! “There’s no need to be so polite. Please have a seat.” Shawn smiled, giving people a very refined and approachable feeling. “Master Hane.” “Master Hane has traveled a long way. It must’ve been hard on you.” Many people gathered around Shawn at the moment, flattering him. After all, Shawn was the current head of the Hane family in Capital City, one of the eight wealthiest families out there! In terms of strength and financial resources, none of them here could compare to him! In terms of influence, the Hane family had long solidified their status in Capital City! Furthermore, the Hanes was established as a martial arts famil
The First Heir Chapter 1030
F*ck! He should take a step back as the conflict would be easier to resolve then. However, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became! The staff at the back also looked helplessly at the scene. Why was he so heavy-handed? The chair was custom-made and very expensive! They had no choice but to replace it quickly. Otherwise, if the boss got angry, blood would flow into a river. Shawn also smacked the armrest and crushed it directly. He stood up and shouted coldly, “Hart! There’s no room for your insolence here! Tonight is the underground chamber of commerce! We’re not at your martial arts arena!” He was already boiling with anger from tolerating earlier. At the moment, the staff backstage was having a massive headache… What the heck?! “Hahaha! Hane, I knew you wouldn't dare, you cowardly tortoise!” Gibson laughed and jeered. Shawn glared at him furiously and retorted, “Hart, you useless coward! You’re nothing but a buffoon who talks big!” “Bleh! You tal
The First Heir Chapter 1031
In the ancient theater building, all the local leaders had settled down. The spectators and tourists in the outfield also sat down. Tonight’s underground chamber of commerce was different from the past. There would be an opening dance show at the beginning and various performances such as boxing match later as an initiative to interact with the public and heighten the atmosphere. However, everyone knew that the main event was the underground chamber of commerce at the end. When the underground chamber of commerce commenced, the tourists would not be able to see it as the venue would be closed. Now, everyone was just watching the opening gambit.Wayne Kingsley stood on stage and said to everyone, “A warm welcome to all the people from all walks of life and districts who are here in Phoenicia to participate in this underground chamber of commerce. With an attitude of tolerance and openness, this session of the underground chamber of commerce show is also open to the outside wo
The First Heir Chapter 1032
Ken put aside his teacup, glanced at all the regional bosses who had different expressions on their faces, and smiled while saying, “I don’t know either. If Master Bowen really comes to participate, let’s just give him a warm welcome. After all, Master Bowen has treated us generously in the past. We can’t be ungrateful.” What Ken said was very true and no one could find any fault with it. All of them nodded, then smiled. “Ah, yes, Master Ken is right.” Yana, who sat next to Ken, turned sideways and whispered in his ear, “Master Ken, you got the best of both worlds with this speech.” Ken merely smiled and said nothing. However... Suddenly, an uncanny snort came from the side. With his arms crossed, Gibson said, “You’re really capable of talking nonsense without batting an eyelash. When Master Bowen was met with that incident back then, I didn’t see you taking the initiative to help him. I even heard that you stabbed him in the back. Otherwise, Master Bowen wouldn’t have coll

The First Heir Chapter 6201
“No one ever comes to my place. You must be outsiders.” Celeste was curious, wondering who Philip was. Celeste knew about the four unique races, but Philip’s appearance and form did not fit any of them. “You’re right. I’m an outsider. I wanted to know something, so I came to the forest. It’s best if you can give me an answer. I don’t intend to harm anyone. If you can answer my questions, I’ll leave and remove the curse on you as well,” Philip persuaded her. He felt that the woman was quite sincere, different from what he imagined. In that case, there was no need to make things difficult for her. Besides, he did not feel a murderous vibe in her, so she had probably never done anything bad. Philip had no reason to make things difficult for someone who liked to hide and sing. “Go ahead. I’ll answer you if I know, but I don’t really know much. I usually stay in my own territory and have no contact with the outside world. Even the other races don't know of my existence.” Rabbit
The First Heir Chapter 6200
Philip felt that there was no problem with his hearing. Someone was humming a song, and the tune sounded very strange and spooky in the dark forest. Rabbit frowned and nodded. He also heard the strange sound and was scared. “Who has nothing better to do but to sing here?” Rabbit nervously grabbed the corner of Philip's clothes, afraid that Philip would leave him behind. Philip shook his head. According to the others, no one would come here for no reason. Due to various dangers in the forest, they would only wander around the edge without seeking trouble in the depths. In that case, the abrupt singing voice was very strange, indeed. “Philip, don't be nervous. Stay calm.” Rabbit's voice was trembling. Although Rabbit kept telling Philip to stay calm, he was already freaking out, so scared that he nearly wanted to run away. Philip knew Rabbit’s character, so he did not comment. He simply observed the surroundings and listened carefully to the sound, which was so ethereal tha

Philip took Puffy along and quickly arrived in a forest where the other races usually hunted, so they should not face any danger here. As soon as Philip left, a woman appeared in the corner and looked in the direction where Philip left with a conflicted look on her face. “Should I follow him?” Ariadna had been left behind in the snake people’s village. She had no friends, and no one paid her any attention. Sometimes, they even displayed their ridicule and disdain for her. She did not get good treatment even though she was a junior from the outside world. In desperation, Ariadna decided to follow Philip. Unexpectedly, she saw Philip with a cute kid the next second. Ariadna was surprised to see that Philip had such a big and cute child. “Wait, that kid looks a little weird.” Due to the distance, Ariadna could not see what the kid looked like, but his color and body shape seemed different from that of normal people. After much deliberation, Ariadna decided to tag along, co

“I’ll look around and find out what’s going on. Don’t worry about me. Look for Ronan if anything crops up.” Philip decided to leave Ronan in charge. Ronan did not object. He knew that Philip wanted to train him. He rarely interacted with others, so he had poor social skills. He had improved with Philip’s help, but his skills were still nothing compared to Philip’s subordinates. He was deeply moved by the opportunity that Philip had given him. “Sure enough, heroes will emerge from the youth. You two will have a bright future!” Wren said excitedly. Philip did not comment. After a few pleasantries, he wandered around with Rabbit. Selma and her people had no time for Philip. They finally found their predecessors, so they had many questions to solve. Philip was most interested in getting to the bottom of this mysterious place. It felt more like a cage designed to trap them. It was devoid of rich energy and other resources suitable for them. What was the purpose of the person b
The First Heir Chapter 6197
A woman like Arachne who pursued her own happiness was usually frowned upon. A person who was willing to sacrifice for the family would be recorded in history forever. Weaver patted Ariadna's shoulder expectantly, believing she could carry it out. After all, he did not know what had happened between them earlier. Everything was a big mistake. “I don’t think I can complete this difficult task,” Ariadna said nervously, afraid that Weaver would put too much hope on her. Ariadna knew that Rabbit had a grudge against her. Moreover, some of her actions had offended Philip, who might ignore her because of that. Thinking of this, she wanted to decline the task, but Weaver was very firm about his decision. “As the holy maiden of the family, this task is yours. No one else can do it but you.” Weaver put Ariadna on a high pedestal, so all the pressure fell on her. Weaver left with the others, leaving the poor holy maiden behind. Arachne looked at Ariadna resentfully. The opportunity

“You never considered the consequences when you tried to take advantage of us. We brought them here, and they have the right to choose. Don't think about taking advantage.” Philip nodded at Fitz’s attitude. Sure enough, he liked this earnest man and was happy with his point of view. “If you want something, you need to pay a price for it. As I mentioned, I’m a businessman, so I prefer fair trade. I’m more than happy if you want to discuss a deal with me.” In fact, they had reached an agreement before the spider people arrived. Philip would not help the other three races for free, but he was not bad enough to charge them fees either. However, the spider people were different. Not to mention that Philip had a bad impression of them, but Rabbit’s grudge also remained unavenged. The spider people scowled at Philip’s disrespect, which was simply outrageous. The other races laughed gloatingly. The spider people had always been arrogant and domineering, preventing their developme

“I'm afraid that the snake people will strike a deal with him and monopolize everything.” The old man anxiously led everyone in the direction of the snake people. They could not miss the chance to share a piece of the pie. However, he did not intend to tell his people about it. The other two races no longer existed in the outside world, so it did not matter if they could not leave. It would be best to let their legends fade away in history. That idea was very selfish. Just when he thought he could grab all the benefits by stealth, the snake people shared the information without keeping it a secret. However, the snake people only shared the news with the other two races. They did not have a good impression of the spider people and even had the idea of leaving them behind. When the spider people hurried over, they found a crowd. They saw not only the young ones of the snake people but also those from the other two races. The other two races were the turtles and magpies. Just li
The First Heir Chapter 6194
The old man felt annoyed when he saw the two women not getting along. He knew that the holy maidens of the family would face a lot of struggles. Ambitious women would try every means to cause trouble just to destroy the status of the holy maidens. By doing so, they could find ways to replace them. It was an underhanded method but effective. After all, not everyone could cope with the distinguished status of the holy maiden. One mistake could be fatal. Therefore, a holy maiden had to be prideful and flawless, just like an untainted and pure white lotus. The old man nodded thoughtfully. He did not think that Arachne looked like the holy maiden, and his suspicions were confirmed. She was not the holy maiden at all. Actions spoke louder than words. Arachne did not carry a regal bearing, so she would not act like a queen even if she wore a crown. At first, the old man wondered why the spider family would choose someone so unbefitting for the role of the holy maiden. Now that
The First Heir Chapter 6193
At this point, an old man walked over. Although they usually maintained their true form, they sometimes took on a human form. Unlike the snake people who did not look very different between the two forms, the spider people looked outrageous in their true forms. “Are you one of the younger generation from outside?” The old man was curious to see the younger children's arrival at this place today. As someone who could not wait to make an impression, Arachne rushed forward and began to introduce herself. In short, Arachne was gradually taking over Ariadna’s position. Although the others were annoyed, they did not say anything because Arachne was really putting in some effort. There was no point in arguing about such things. The most important thing was to remove their curse. The old man was very excited and could not wait to welcome them. “This is wonderful. It has been thousands of years since we saw an outsider!” His eyes gleamed with excitement. “Tell me how you got in,” he
