With trembling hands, Kinley raised the golden armband above his head and handed it back to Philip. Philip took it and said coldly, “Demolish this building. Everyone related to the Wes family must be investigated thoroughly. Arrest those who deserve to be arrested!” After that, Philip stepped forward and left this place. From this moment on, the huge Wes family and Weston Group were no more! Kinley’s face was as gray as death. At the last moment, he yelled at Philip’s back even though he had already left, “Even if the Wes family falls, someone will avenge us! I’ll make a comeback!” The very moment the Wes family of Uppercreek collapsed, in the mountains of Riverton where a manor with the most magnificent architectural design laid. It was the manor where Colin Hull once visited. It was the same secret chamber. Nine lit candles filled the house with a fragrance. Among the eleven seats, seven or eight people were seated at the moment, sipping tea. One of them, a middle
At this moment, Hannah’s fingers moved a little and her eyes trembled slightly before she slowly opened them. “Phil!” Wynn noticed the changes immediately and exclaimed. When Philip saw this, he quickly rushed out while shouting, “Doctor, doctor!” Soon, the doctor came over for an examination and said to Philip, “There’s no major problem. Now, we have to pay attention to the healing of the injuries. She shouldn’t move around and needs to rest properly.” “Thank you, doctor.” Philip sent the doctor away, returned to the ward, and helped Hannah sit up. He fluffed the pillow for her. Hannah’s face was still a little pale. She looked at Philip, then at Wynn and Mila. Philip immediately introduced with a smile, “This is your sister-in-law, Wynn Johnston, and this is Mila.” However, Hannah did not greet Wynn as her sister-in-law at once, which embarrassed Philip and Wynn. At this time, Mila rushed over and shouted with a grin, “Aunt.” Hannah seemed to like Mila a lot. Sh
The meeting between Wynn and Hannah lasted half an hour. For half an hour, Philip stood at the door, pacing back and forth anxiously. He was very restless. What were they talking about? His identity would not be revealed, right? Creak. The door opened and Wynn walked out. She immediately glanced suspiciously at Philip. Philip quickly walked over and asked with some trepidation, “Well, what did she say to you?” Wynn said, “Your identity.” His identity? Damn it! His sister really said it? “What identity?” Philip looked a little embarrassed as he scratched the back of his head. The smile on his face looked fake. Wynn frowned, looked at Philip very seriously, and continued to ask, “You really have nothing to tell me?” Philip was taken aback. He bit the bullet and said, “No.” Wynn nodded and said, “Hannah didn't say anything. She just told me that your identity is not simple but you can't tell me about it now.” When Philip heard this, he was relieved. It
Not long after Philip left, he told Master Bell’s people to stay on guard at the hospital. About 20 minutes later, a charming figure appeared in Hannah’s ward, her fragrance filling the space. The graceful woman, dressed in a fiery red trench coat that was paired with a black shirt underneath, stepped on her high heels and walked toward Hannah’s hospital bed. She sat down. Her fiery red lips whispered, “Is it worth it?” Hannah smiled faintly and said, “You don't understand. He’s my brother, after all. Besides, only in this way can I take the initiative.” The woman nodded and asked, “Do you need me to send someone over?” “It’s okay, Sister Margot. I can be alone. If there are too many people, it’ll only rouse my brother’s suspicions.” Hannah shook her head and said. Margot Pearson smiled alluringly and said, “The boss asked me to pass you a message. If it doesn't work out, retreat in time and don’t get embroiled in it.” A pair of dimples appeared on Hannah’s face as sh
Lydia Jensen was very displeased. She kept thinking that her great-grandfather was old and confused. Would it not be shameful for the Jensen family to bring such a guy there? Besides, many foreign guests were attending tonight, and most of them were members of the World Martial Arts Association. In name, this event was held for networking and discussions, but in reality, it was a joint operation by those rude foreigners to suppress the domestic martial arts circles. They wanted to take this opportunity to suppress national martial arts so that they could have more competition rights and status in the next election for the director of the World Martial Arts Association! Therefore, several domestic martial arts families were very concerned about this martial arts exchange meeting and had made a lot of preparations for it. However, Great-grandpa actually wanted to bring a man who looked very ordinary to participate. Lydia could not understand this. Was he really Young Master
“Young Master Clarke, please come this way.” Without delay, Jacob invited Philip to get into the car outside. Philip thought for a while, took out his mobile phone, and sent a text message to Wynn. He told her that he had something to do and would be back later. Next, he arranged for Master Bell’s people to keep watch near the hotel before he left without worries and followed Jacob into the car. Soon, they came to a martial arts hall, the Dragon Gate. The entire hall was built in a typical martial arts dojo architecture, with red lanterns hung high and dragons engraved on the doors. This martial arts hall was the largest in Uppercreek. At the moment, many luxury cars were parked in the parking lot in front of the entrance. Moreover, the people coming in and out of the hall were not ordinary characters. They were all members of the World Martial Arts Association. They were also followed by martial arts practitioners who had been carefully selected to participate in the m
There was a strong battle spirit in Philip’s eyes. This reminded him of the two years he experienced in the brigade. The few lives that were lost were because of Fusha and some unknown power behind them! Hatred! Intense hatred! At this moment, Lydia overheard Philip mumbling to himself. His eyes were blazing with radiance, and his body was radiating with power! However, she could not help but feel that he was bragging. This year, Fusha’s martial arts forces were well prepared. In the national martial arts circle, several national martial arts families and national martial arts associations were all unable to do anything. With just one word from him, could he suppress Fusha’s power and influence? Soon after entering the venue, Jacob settled Philip down before he rushed over to speak to several national martial arts families. Philip could not intervene in such matters. After all, he knew very little about them. Jacob had told Lydia to accompany Philip. In the ma
Philip raised his eyebrows, glanced at him, and frowned slightly. He said coldly, “Why should I give way?” Torres was startled. He looked at this ordinary man and sneered, “Who the hell are you? How dare you talk to me this way? Do you know who I am? Get out of the way and stop annoying me!” This guy was a bit conceited. Torres Hane was only 19 years old, a little kid in front of Philip. However, Torres acted all high and mighty and did not put ordinary people like Philip in his eyes at all. Who was he? A member of the Hane family in Capital City! Who dared to provoke him? That would be courting death! Lydia was unhappy. She got up, pushed Torres, and said coldly, “Torres Hane, what are you doing?” “What am I doing? You keep looking at this guy. I’m not happy about it.” Torres was a very straightforward person. “Is an old man worth watching for so long? Or do you know each other?” Lydia glared at him coldly and said, “Stop guessing. I just met him. Besides, what
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
“Are you referring to humans like us or unique races like them?” Philip was surprised that Rabbit sensed something that he did not. Philip stroked Rabbit's round head with satisfaction as a compliment to him. Rabbit wiggled his short tail in pride. He really felt something was wrong, so he hoped Philip would pay attention to it. “I don’t think they're one of us. They're more likely one of the unique races.” Rabbit did not kick up a fuss after he noticed something was wrong but simply spoke to Philip on the side. He knew that these people might go crazy if they found out people were living in their ancestral land. Philip looked at Rabbit solemnly. After much deliberation, he finally decided to tell Selma about the discovery. Meanwhile, Selma was still thinking about how to get rid of Ariadna when Philip pulled her aside all of a sudden. Selma looked at Philip shyly with a hint of panic in her eyes. “I need to tell you something. Be mentally prepared for it,” Philip said se
If Philip had not been on guard, he might have been misled by the mist into thinking that it was nothing. Others rushed over, eager to find out what happened. Ronan looked around excitedly. He wanted to judge the situation by the traces left behind, but surprisingly, there was no sign of a battle. He was confused and wondered what had happened. He had been expecting a fierce battle. After all, it was very difficult to subdue such things. However, he saw a scene of peace in front of him. “Philip, what happened? Something feels wrong. There should be something toxic here, but I don’t see anything. Are you too strong or are those things too cunning?” Ronan was very curious and felt that things were more than met the eye. “You’ll find out soon. Anyway, did those guys follow you?” Philip looked back at the restless people mockingly. They were not that strong, but they would never miss any chance to take advantage of others. “Some of them did follow us, but they're not very quick
“On top of that, I can also help to expand your awareness and enhance your mental strength.” Philip persuaded the mist with everything he had, hoping that it would leave with him. He was strong enough to interact with the mist in an equal setting. If the mist refused to give in, Philip would consider beating it into submission. After much deliberation, the mist, who was more like an innocent child, agreed to Philip’s suggestion. Philip felt the excitement expressed by the mist. “I’ll take you into my space now. Don’t resist. You’ll feel that mysterious power in a minute.” He took the mist into his space, and the large expanse of blue mist vanished in an instant. The fierce killing intent in the passage disappeared with it. Philip looked at the disappearing mist in excitement. He found something very good this time. The mist was obviously still in its growing stage, an ignorant little thing at present. The mist would grow under his help into a strong existence. He was glad to
Arachne and the others saw the mist and were frightened. They quickly hid beside the snake people without lurking in the dark anymore. “What’s up with the weird mist?” The spider people brought more people than Selma’s team this time. Everyone was squeezed in this place, making it a little crowded. The snake people looked at them in disdain, shocked that they had the nerve to approach them. “Don’t you see how crowded this place is? Stop squeezing your way inside!” Cavin said with disdain. Although Cavin looked like a timid child who anyone could bully, he was quite manly in a confrontation. Rabbit huffed at them in anger but did not know what to say. Arachne rolled her eyes. “This is obviously the only safe place around. Where should we go if not here? You can leave if you think it’s crowded,” Arachne sneered with disdain. They knew that Philip had entered the danger zone, so they wanted to stay close to keep abreast of his updated situation. However, they overlooked
Whether the fine wine or the delicious beast meat provided by Philip, their strength improved greatly after the meal, which was simply too good to be true. Everyone guessed whether eating such meat on a long-term basis would make their bodies stronger. “Our business will definitely soar if we have such meat on the menu!” Selma marveled solemnly. She knew how attractive the meat was to humans or other races. It was worth looking forward to a meal that could improve one’s strength. Moreover, they could feel their bodies slowly absorbing the meat’s energy without going to waste, and they did not have to go through the effort of absorbing it, which was simply amazing. When Philip and his people left after having their fill, Arachne followed them with her people. Ariadna was so jealous that her thoughts became distorted. If she had not been so stupid back then, she might have gotten the chance to sit with Philip and enjoy the meal too. She lost the chance because she was stupid and
