“I’m the young master of the Dean family in Uppercreek. My dad is the coach of Uppercreek’s security forces, and my grandfather is also the retired coach!” After he finished speaking, he looked at Philip amusedly. “Now, do you still want to go against me?” “The Dean family? Are they very powerful?” Philip retorted unwaveringly. “Haha.” Gill smiled cruelly before stepping forward and glaring at Philip fiercely. “Since I grew up, you’re the first person who dares to provoke the Dean family like this. “I’ll let you know how big the gap between us is, just like the geese in the sky and the ants on the ground!” Philip smiled faintly. When he was about to speak, a middle-aged man with a dignified face pushed the crowd away and walked over. “What’s going on? Who dares to make trouble at the banquet for the owners of Blossoms Park? Don’t you know the banquet tonight is hosted by Sam Cohen of the Soaring Real Estate Group?” “Oh, Supervisor Sandler is here. This wretched man fr
“Manager Goode?” Supervisor Sandler was taken aback before he yelled mockingly, “Presumptuous! What right do you have to mention Manager Goode? Do you think we’re at a small gathering where you can talk about him so casually?” The audience’s blood boiled at his words. “Supervisor Sandler, hurry up and get rid of this rubbish!” “This idiot is really good at bragging.” “A poor place like Riverdale is really good at producing rubbish. It’s really shocking.” At this time, everyone’s gaze at Philip was full of disdain and contempt. Philip frowned slightly at these countless accusations. Supervisor Sandler did not want to delay this matter any further, so he turned his head and shouted, “Where’s the security guard? Hurry up and throw this filthy guy out for me.” “Sneaking into the private banquet for the owners of Blossoms Park is not an easy act to forgive. Call the cops too. I want to see what the police have to say about someone sneaking into private territory.” Everyo
This jerk turned out to be Anson’s distinguished guest? How could that be? It must be known that everyone present tonight had to be polite in front of Manager Goode. With Anson’s distinguished identity, how did he get to know a bum in shabby clothes like Philip? He tried to defend himself. “I didn't know that this gentleman was invited by you. If I knew, how would I possibly dare to do this?” Anson remained unmoved. Instead, he smiled apologetically to Philip and said, “Sorry, I’m late. “I didn't expect my subordinates to be so ignorant and cause such trouble.” With that said, Anson was full of anger. What kind of person was Philip Clarke? Manager Goode’s distinguished guest! He was the person with the highest status tonight! He was the owner of Bird of Paradise Villa! Even Sam Cohen had given specific instructions that he must invite Mr. Clarke upstairs for a private meeting. These people had chastised Philip so much and even tried to kick him out of the banq
He looked at Gil reproachfully. “Is Mr. Clarke someone you can humiliate casually?” “I’ll talk to your father about this matter myself.” After he finished speaking, he ignored Gil's pale face, turned his head to Philip, and whispered in his ear, “Mr. Clarke, Mr. Cohen and a few friends are waiting for you upstairs.” “Sure.” Philip nodded, glanced at Gil Dean lightly, then smiled before turning away. Supervisor Sandler could not take it anymore. He slumped to the ground, his face pale. Gil lowered his head and gritted his teeth with his fists clenched. That final look from Philip seemed to be ridiculing him, turning into a sharp sword and piercing his self-esteem fiercely. “That son of a b*tch!” After the two walked away, Gil finally exploded. He took the wine glass from the nearby table and smashed it on the ground. “How does he know Anson Goode? This is impossible!” The moment Yolanda had seen Anson, her expression could not help but change slightly as she excl
The two took a seat, and Anson accompanied him next to him. After a round of toast, Sam immediately broached the topic and said, “Mr. Clarke, this time, Soaring Real Estate Group has decided to set up a real estate company in Riverdale to expand our business there. When the time comes, we hope you can extend some help, Mr. Clarke.” If they could get some help from Philip, or rather, an investment, then the ten-year plan of Soaring Real Estate Group in Riverdale would face no problems at all! By itself, the Soaring Real Estate Group of Sam Cohen had a certain influence. In Uppercreek, it was one of the three giants in the real estate industry. However, Riverdale was different; its waters ran deep. Moreover, Philip was different, and the background he came from was different. Through Hoyt Luther, Sam already knew and understood this point deeply. He and Hoyt had been friends in private for many years, and naturally, they knew the true identity of Philip Clarke! When he wa
Philip’s eyes were cold as he shook his hand directly, brushing away Yolanda's arm. Smack! Philip responded in kind, slapping Yolanda’s face angrily while saying, “Yolanda Lee, that’s enough! You keep challenging my patience time and again! If not for the sake of our acquaintance, I’d have dealt with you a long time ago!” Every person had a limit. Philip Clarke was no exception! He had always kept a low profile and did not wish to cause any trouble most of the time, especially now that he was looking for his sister Hannah Clarke. He did not want news of his actions to be spread or to cause a sensation as it would only lead him to be noticed by people with ulterior motives. That was why he had been deliberately restraining his temper. However, Yolanda’s actions had crossed the limit! Yolanda was stunned, clutching her pretty face while staring at Philip in disbelief. “You... How dare you hit me?!” Yolanda’s eyes widened, and the anger in her heart surged. Why had she
“Hehe.” Gil sneered, taking a tissue from the side to cover his mouth and nose. His eyes were stern as he said, “What, a bankrupt young master like you wants to make a move against me?” Ludicrous! A useless and bankrupt young master dared to challenge him? He was simply courting death! The corners of Philip's mouth were slightly raised as a sneer appeared. He said, “You’ll find out.” Then, he raised his fist and threw it at Gil again. Gil’s eyes widened in fright and he quickly raised his hand to cover his face. He acted very arrogantly most of the time, but when it came to a fight, he was a weak chicken. “Stop! Who dares to touch Young Master Dean?!” At this time from the direction of the stairs, a group of men in security uniforms rushed in. All of them were big and burly men, each holding an anti-riot baton in their hand. The guy in the lead was the chief coach of the Dean family’s security guards, Sunny Howe, also known as Howie on the streets! Everyone in t
Mr. Clarke? Yolanda was also in a daze, her mind wandering. Philip… Why was he being addressed to as Mr. Clarke? Wait a minute! Gil’s heart trembled suddenly! This person was the chairman of Soaring Real Estate Group, Sam Cohen! Now, at this moment, Sam was here and he addressed that piece of trash as Mr. Clarke! Seeing Juan and Yolanda looking at him suspiciously, Philip's heart trembled. Oh no, if his identity was exposed in Uppercreek, the people keeping an eye on him in the dark would definitely investigate his purpose for coming here. At that time, it might cause unnecessary trouble or even cause harm to his sister! Philip must conceal it temporarily. Therefore, he stared at Sam coldly, and Sam stammered in fright with just one look. Sam was taken aback but understood quickly. Hoyt Luther had once explained to him that Mr. Clarke's identity must be kept secret. This was also the reason why he wanted to receive Philip in the private room upstairs, so Sam
“I was teleported to a secret space, and someone who looked exactly like me appeared! No matter what I did, that thing could deal with me. To think that it could copy my abilities was simply over the top!” The major families let their guards down and gathered to discuss it, expressing their fear. Philip stood observing this mysterious place without paying attention to them. “Philip, we’re out. That encounter was so weird. If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, that thing would've gotten its way!” Aslan approached Philip nervously, surprised by this development. He was not afraid when he saw a guy who looked exactly like him, but he started panicking when the other party used the same moves as him. “That thing was a force to be reckoned with,” Aslan exclaimed nervously, but no one knew if he was praising himself or the other party. Two hours passed by in a flash. As more and more people appeared, some people were happy while others were sad. Many small families were not confi
No one expected to encounter attacks from their own kind, so they could not tell if it was an illusion or reality. Their counter-attacks seemed powerless against those enemies too. The opponents’ attacks caused huge damage to them so resistance was futile. “Captain, we can’t hold on any longer. What’s going on?” “How can we escape from this damn place? We’ll die if we don’t leave now!” “Think of a way to leave this place at once!” Everyone roared in the face of this difficulty. Compared to humans, however, they were quite lucky. After entering this area, the humans found themselves surrounded by their own projections. Everyone was on guard against this bizarre phenomenon. Before they figured out what happened, their projections attacked them. The opponent's attack was steady, accurate, and ruthless, hitting their vital points. One careless move and one would simply die on the spot. Some people could not react in time and turned into a puff of dust. The quicker ones simp
Everyone looked at each other awkwardly. The cynocephaly saw this scene and came up with an idea to wreak havoc! “Find Philip!” the leader of the cynocephali ordered, and his people quickly sprang into action. The cynocephali were quick on their feet, and combined with their strong sense of smell, it was easy for them to find Philip's trace. Philip and the others did not deliberately hide their whereabouts. They looked around calmly. They knew that an unspeakable conspiracy was waiting for them, so they were just waiting for it. The cynocephaly quickly surrounded Philip and his team, and they spread the news to other races. The other races were very anxious and not in the mood to bother about this, but they kept an eye on the situation for fear that Philip would do something weird. Philip was unfazed. Although they were surrounded, Philip was not nervous at all and even looked forward to it. “Philip, I just confirmed that there’s no sign of the rabbit family’s true god he
The cynocephali laughed and entered the bronze door. They had achieved their goal, so there was no point in staying. It would be better to enter the bronze door and find their true god. The cynocephali never thought that their words could create such a commotion. All the major races and humans were annoyed with Philip now, and they would not allow anyone to affect their interests. Philip had no idea that he had become the target of public outrage. He and his team were still rushing forward. It was foggy along the way, and no one could see what was ahead. Philip frowned as he looked around but saw no traces of the true gods. “This thing about the true gods, is it true? We’ve been here for so long, but there’s nothing!” Aslan expressed his doubt. This place was not as simple as they imagined. Although Philip did not speak, his gaze reflected his thoughts. If they were not powerful practitioners, they would not be able to see anything in this fog. “Maybe only the families
The merfolk were the best example. The union between merfolk and humans produced the fish creatures. They were so ugly that Philip could not bear to lay eyes on them. If not for the elves’ treasure, there would have been no other way to make them look good. Loony knew about it, but there was nothing he could do. “I don’t think there’s a problem with our genes,” Loony said hesitantly. He could not exclude the possibility of producing that sort of offspring. He would not know what to do if that really happened. Anyway, he would blame everything on the true gods. As Philip and his team entered the place, the cynocephaly from earlier panicked and urged his people to follow suit. They were not happy about it. By entering their true god’s territory, Philip and his team were clearly trying to mess with them. Thus, the leader of the cynocephaly gave his people a secret command. “Stay here and spread the news about this. Make sure to ruin their reputation!” The cynocephali were ac
The other races stood on guard at the appearance of Philip and his team. They knew that the man in front of them was the legendary Philip Clarke. “What are humans doing here? Your true god isn’t here. Are you here to cause trouble?” The first group they encountered was the cynocephali, who arrived quickly. The cynocephali looked very dodgy, so Philip simply rolled his eyes and turned away, unwilling to speak to them. Philip did not have a good impression of cynocephali. They were selfish and always messed things up. They were the losers among losers. Thus, the cynocephaly was one of the races Philip hated the most. “You!” Seeing Philip ignoring them, they felt looked down upon. They wanted to intimidate Philip but were at a loss for words, so they could only stand there and glare daggers at Philip. Aslan glanced at them. He thought that they were very powerful and were about to pick a fight with them, but not even a hiccup happened. “What makes you think we want to fi
“Every race consists of good and bad people, but these ridiculous guys simply labeled humans as bad people. Whatever. Let’s forget about the secret realm and just let them rot inside!” Loony was very angry and decided to give up this secret realm. In any case, he would not let them take advantage. However, Philip had a different opinion. “Don’t be hasty, I think we should go there. Rescuing those people won’t be as simple as just going there. I’m sure we’ll need to complete some challenges. If the situation doesn’t seem right, we can stop at any time. No one said we have to rescue them, right?” Philip’s thinking was very simple. Why refuse the opportunity? If the true gods could pay the price, there was no reason not to rescue them. “I think Philip is right. There’s no reason to refuse a free lunch. After all the effort of making our way there, we should get some benefits!” Aslan said excitedly. He could hardly wait to grab hold of the benefits. After a discussion, they final
Sure enough, Brett felt much better after hearing that. The demon had a point. It was indeed Philip's fault. They would not have ended up this way if not for Philip. “In that case, I'll join you, but you have to promise me that we’ll live a good life in the future.” Brett gave in. There was no point in trying to maintain a good reputation anyway. No one would believe him or step forward to help him anymore. In that case, he might as well join the demons. At least the demon saved him when he was most helpless and healed him, restoring him to normal. “Don’t worry. You’ll live a good life and also seek revenge on those people. Doesn't it sound like a good deal? “I know you hate Philip. That's all the more reason we should work together.” Hearing Philip’s name, Brett could not wait to use the power of the demons to get rid of him. “You have to help me seek revenge and kill Philip!” Brett said vehemently. The demon swayed in the air reluctantly. “It’s better to seek re
“Do you want revenge?” Hearing that, Brett looked up at the source of the sound. He saw a weird specter floating in the garden. He quickly recognized the other party's identity at a glance. It was a demon. Heath and Brett were startled at this scene. It felt like rubbing salt in their wounds. They were already suffering, but a demon was watching the fun. “Demons will never defeat humans!” Brett shook his head helplessly. He knew what the demons were capable of. They had not made puppets to deal with the demons but simply to enhance the strength of the family. “You really underestimate us.” The demon was still floating in the air. He waved his hand, and a burst of light fell. Instantly, the wounds on Brett and Heath were healed. In fact, Maven did not know how to maim a practitioner at all. She thought it was just a matter of breaking their arms and legs!Therefore, Heath's and Brett’s broken arms and legs were quickly healed. Their energy core was not damaged at all. A
