Vinci Hull? She brought people with her! When Colin Hull, who was on the ground, heard these words, he suddenly turned over with a face full of disbelief! Why did Vinci turn up at this time? He had clearly arranged someone to send her and Flint out of Riverton! “Vinci, no, don’t!” Colin tried to get up from the ground with difficulty as he shouted. However, the two combatants took him down directly! Philip turned around, staring at Colin with a pair of cold eyes as he said, “After all the scheming, you didn’t expect that your daughter would be unwilling to concede, right?” Colin looked at Philip with his eyes widened, his face full of fear and horror. Thump! He fell to his knees and bowed to Philip, begging for mercy, “Young Master Clarke, I beg of you, please let my daughter go. I admit defeat. I surrender. I’ll bear all the consequences alone!” Colin was really scared at this moment! What he loved most was his pair of children. He would rather give up the
Dead silence! Everyone was struck dumb! Philip stood there emotionlessly while staring at Vinci who was standing not far away with her hot figure and cold temperament. He smiled slightly and said, “We finally meet.” Vinci frowned, pointed at Philip, and shouted, “I don’t want to talk nonsense with you. Where’s my dad?” Philip shrugged. The two guards behind him escorted Colin out and tossed him in the rain. At this moment, Colin Hull, who was covered in blood, looked at Vinci on the opposite side. He shouted, “Vinci, go back! Go away! You can’t fight him! Don’t do anything stupid! Go!” At the sight of her father, Vinci was full of grief. She shouted, “Dad, don’t worry. I'm no longer the Vinci Hull who needs your protection. Today, I want Philip Clarke to know the consequences of provoking the Hull family!” While saying that, Vinci’s face was full of chills. She stared at the calm Philip and shouted, “Let my dad go and you can keep your life!” Keep his life? Upon hea
Hearing Vinci's threatening words, Philip frowned as his eyes flashed with a chill. Threatening him with his wife and child? Very courageous! “Philip, you made great plans transferring everyone to Riverton just to deal with the Hull family. But you’ve forgotten that your base camp is currently empty. And my people, as early as more than an hour ago, have rushed to Riverdale. Presumably, they have found your wife and child by now.” Vinci smiled sinisterly. It was rare for a woman to be so cruel and vicious. Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets, his face looking indifferent. The corners of his eyes were faintly glowing. He looked at the confident Vinci and said, “Do you really think that Riverdale is empty?” His voice fell. The audience went silent. Vinci twisted her willowy eyebrows, not understanding what Philip meant. Was this the last struggle? “Hehe, Philip Clarke, stop trying to scare me. Whatever the situation, my people will give me an update soon,” V
The three killers, covered with the pungent smell of blood, stood in front of Wynn. One of them sneered while holding a bloody dagger in his hand. He then took out his mobile phone, ready to record the video. “Cooperate with us and it’ll be less painful for you.” Wynn held Mila, who was already shaking with fright, tightly in her arms. She asked with her eyes full of horror, “Who are you? What do you want?” Among them, the bald guy sneered and snatched Mila away from Wynn's arms. He smiled cruelly. “Just doing what we’re paid to do.” The three people recorded Wynn and Mila on video. Then, they quickly sent the video out. After doing that, the three of them looked at each other, then looked at Wynn and Mila menacingly. They raised the dagger in their hands and said, “You should be on your way!” With raised hands, the daggers fell! At the last moment, Wynn was very desperate as she held on to Mila and cried out, “Philip, where are you?” Then, she watched helplessly as the
Philip took the mobile phone given by Vinci and glanced at the contents of the video. The corners of his eyes went cold, his whole body full of anger! However, this anger was suppressed soon enough. By his side, Theo also glanced at it and his face collapsed! He pointed from a distance and roared at Vinci. “Vinci Hull, you’re so despicable! It’s disgraceful to threaten others using their family members as hostages! For the Hull family to resort to this, the entire Riverton will be ashamed of you! I’m warning you, quickly let Mrs. Clarke and Miss Clarke go. Otherwise, I’ll bring some people to wipe out the entire Hull family!” Theo blew his top! Even if Philip had anticipated it in advance and instructed him to send extra manpower to strictly guard the villa, they still messed up. The opponent had obviously dispatched an expert. Dozens of bodyguards in the villa were wiped out? Theo panicked, turned his head, and glanced at Philip. He discovered that Philip's facial ex
Vinci was angry, furious even! She raised her head and twisted her eyebrows as her body radiated with chills. She pointed at Philip in the distance and shouted, “Even so, you still can't escape today! Take a closer look. This place is surrounded by the Hull family’s disciples and special combat bodyguards. Do you think the people you brought are enough?!” Vinci had lost all patience. She clenched her fists tightly, staring at Philip with a fierce glare before roaring. “All disciples of the Hull family listen up! Take all of them down! Kill without mercy!” Instantly! All the Hull disciples, dressed in black martial arts uniforms with red sashes tied around their waists, rushed directly toward Philip’s side! In front of Philip, all the combat personnel assembled and formed a solid wall. They were ready for battle! In an instant, the two forces confronted each other! Far behind inside a black Rolls-Royce. An old man was sitting beside Rachel Clarke, and she faintly glanc
Tim put his arms around Philip's shoulders, his eyes full of affection. He said, “Good boy, you’ve grown a lot again. Weren’t you going to notify me before destroying the Hull family?” Philip raised his brows and asked in confusion, “Uncle Tim, do you know the Hull family?” Tim smiled faintly, turned his head, and glanced at Colin who had fallen in the rain. He walked toward him. “Colin Hull, do you admit your mistakes?” Tim reprimanded. Colin was slumped in the rain at the moment. After seeing the approaching person, his whole body trembled with fear. He knelt for the first time, knocked his head on the ground, and said loudly, “Master Tim, I know my mistakes! I’m willing to bear all consequences!” The moment he saw this person, Colin knew that he had completely lost! A thorough defeat! He also lost all will to resist! It was because no matter how much he resisted, only death awaited him! Tim Clarke, Master Tim, was the founder of Hull Chamber of Commerce! He was
Looking at this scene, Tim almost could not bear it. He closed his eyes slightly and then took out a small token. He held it high to all the Hull family members and shouted, “Seeing this token, aren’t you going to kneel?!” Rumble! A flash of lightning illuminated the sky! All members of the Hull family looked up at this moment and saw the golden token in Tim's hand. It had the golden character ‘T’ engraved on the front! All members of the Hull family had received strict education about this token since the first day they entered the Hull family! They had been taught to kneel at the sight of this token! Thud! In front of the entire mansion’s courtyard, countless Hull disciples wearing black martial arts uniforms with red sashes around their waists fell to their knees! The scene was spectacular! The onlookers, the wealthy nobles of Riverton, were dumbfounded at this moment! Shocking! This was amazing! All the Hull disciples were kneeling on the ground in surrender
“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 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
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
“Now that the spider people have found new blood, I’m afraid that things will worsen.” At this point, Fitz sighed helplessly. Rabbit jumped out at this time. He hated the spider people. Hearing their shameless behavior, Rabbit was agitated. “Sure enough, those spiders are up to no good. Philip, why don’t we just get rid of them? Take it as revenge for me!” Rabbit waved his paw and looked at Philip excitedly. He knew that only Philip could help him. The spiders might not be strong, but they had strength in numbers. They were not people to be trifled with. While Philip and the others were chatting, Ariadna and her people found the spider people. Arachne was very excited and smug, waiting to take all the credit. “As I said, we can find something we've been looking for if we enter this place! Sure enough, following Philip can help us overcome all difficulties and find our ancestral land and predecessors. So what if they're trapped here? They must have many more treasures and secr
They could also see some toddlers, which proved that the predecessors were living quite a good life. “We thought you had ascended to another place. Is this the place you ended up? It doesn’t look like the paradise described in the books!” Selma blinked innocently, wondering why this place looked like this. This place was not rich in energy, and there was nothing special about it, so it was not attractive at all. “We didn’t ascend but have been trapped in this place over the years with no way to leave.” Fitz did not want to deceive them and simply told them the facts. Now that they had entered, the newcomers had no way of leaving either. “Didn’t you notice? The passage that led you in has been sealed. There’s no way to leave now.” Selma turned her head curiously and looked at the exit. Philip followed suit and found that it was indeed the case. The exit was blocked by a huge stone. No one knew when the stone appeared. It felt like it appeared out of thin air. Philip's ex
When Philip’s eyes adjusted to the light, he saw a gurgling stream in front of him. There was a small village beside the stream and many more villages along the stream. Philip counted four in total. The villagers who lived along the stream observed Philip as he looked at them. “Outsiders?” A man standing in the front stared at Philip in surprised disbelief. Philip noticed that he had a snake tail. Hearing the man's words, everyone ran out. Without exception, they all had a snake tail. It was clear that they belonged to the same race as Selma. Selma covered her mouth in shock at this scene. It was true. Their predecessors were staying there. The man mellowed down after seeing Selma. He felt a familiar vibe on her. It seemed that they shared the same bloodline. Philip nudged Selma, who quickly understood his meaning and showed her true form. Cavin followed her cue. Seeing this scene, the man laughed and applauded. The spider people arrived at this time. They were surpri
Philip finally realized that Ariadna was not wealthy enough to do business with him. “This emerald pendant is very valuable! Don’t look down on it just because you’re strong!” Ariadna grumbled under her breath but had no choice but to accept it. After all, Philip had the final say about its value. Maybe her treasure was worthless to Philip because he was too strong for it. After taking the emerald pendant, Philip told Ariadna what he knew per their agreement, which was the secret about people living in the ancestral land. As expected, Ariadna was shocked by the news too. “Are you serious? This is too far-fetched. Are you saying that our predecessors have been trapped here and haven't left for another place?” Her outburst gave Philip a different idea. When he spoke to Selma earlier, he subconsciously believed that these so-called predecessors had ascended. It was strange that they reached a very odd place of ascension. After hearing Ariadna’s remark, however, it seemed mor
No one knew if their predecessors would treat them as their own. Although they had the same bloodline, they had not seen each other for such a long time. Besides, they sneaked into the ancestral land without permission. Maybe they would be killed before they stepped inside. Philip’s information was very useful, indeed. Selma quickly returned to her family members in a panic and discussed with them. With only a few of them, the discussion was very brief before they reached a decision. Cavin grimaced at this unexpected development, and he was more in awe of Philip. He was shocked by Philip’s strength. If Philip could sense that, his observation skill was nothing in front of Philip! Cavin felt helpless about it. It felt a little embarrassing to have shown off his skill in front of Philip now. “Selma, what should we do now? We have to consider the stalkers behind us. They won’t give up that easily. We may be in trouble if we don't find a way to get rid of them.” Cavin glanced at th
