Chester Ludwig nodded and asked coldly, “How much longer will it be?” “Almost. Half an hour to go.” The man in a jacket replied before saying doubtfully, “Master Ludwig, the entire Cloudside is now full of Lambert family’s people. I'm afraid the car will be detained as soon as it enters. Do we need to change the route?” Chester smiled as a chill flashed in his eyes. He said, “No need. I never planned to go to Country R at all. It was just a bait to lure the big fish here so that it’s more convenient for us to make a move.” After a moment of silence, Chester turned around and said to the man, “Send my instructions. Tell the people lying in ambush to get ready. Also, tell Dan and the others to wait a mile outside the city. No one is allowed to enter the city without my orders! “Also, tell the people in Country R to enter the city. Find an opportunity to make the trade in Cloudside. “As for the little girl, arrange someone to keep an eye on her. There can be no mistakes. That’
Kinley looked at Sidney with an unpleasant expression. Finally, he took a deep breath and said with a nod, “Fine, I’ll listen to you, Master Ludwig! However, you must ensure the safety and security of the Wes family!” Chester smiled and ordered his subordinates to pour two glasses of red wine for Kinley and Sidney. He raised his glass, saying, “Come on, cheers. Let’s wish our cooperation a success.” At the same time, in the mountains about one kilometer away from Cloudside. A speeding Buick stopped in the rainstorm, its wipers flicking back and forth. Inside the car, three burly men cursed at the horrible weather. The man in the front passenger seat had a fierce look on his face. There was a deep scar on the corner of his mouth from getting injured by someone back then. He was talking on the phone at this moment, nodding while saying, “Okay, I understand.” After saying this, he hung up the phone and said to the rest of the men in the car, “Look for a hotel nearby to settl
The subordinates asked in confusion, “Master Lambert, who the hell is that who can make you so respectful to him?” Nigel turned around, glared at his subordinates, and said, “Don’t ask so many questions!” Soon, different vehicles sped past, such as Mercedes, Maybach, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce. They were all from the Lambert family’s mansion and company building. They were driving on the main road in Cloudside, heading toward the entrance of the city! This scene naturally shocked the people of Cloudside! The pedestrians on the street and the customers who came to Cloudside for jades looked at the luxury cars that weaved through the rain. They were all full of surprise. “Holy sh*t! Isn’t this the Lambert family’s convoy?” “Yes, such a grand spectacle. What’s going on?” “Look, they’re heading toward the entrance of the city. Is it possible that someone important is coming to Cloudside?” A group of onlookers chatted incessantly! Such a magnificent pompadour had never been
Whoosh! The tires screeched across the ground, splashing rain all over the place. The cars then stopped at the entrance to the city. Nigel immediately took the umbrella handed to him by his men, opened it with a bang, and briskly walked over to the second Mercedes. He stood respectfully at the door of the car, bent over, and greeted, “Young Master Clarke.” The car window rolled down, revealing a young face with a trace of indifference. This scene appeared in everyone’s sight. However, most people could not see the face behind the car window at all. Due to the heavy rain and also Nigel partially blocking the view, everyone could only see a general outline. Very young! “Gosh, no way! How could a big shot be so young?” “Oh my, this is crazy! He must be the young master of some hidden family!” “Unbelievable! A young man like that actually had the power to help Nigel take over Cloudside in one fell swoop?! It’s terrifying!” At the entrance of Cloudside, those bosses
At those words, the entrance of the Lambert family’s mansion quickly quietened down! Only the sound of rain and the occasional muffled thunder could be heard. Almost all the business leaders and heads of the underground forces in Cloudside standing at the entrance were looking at Chester and his men with hostile cold eyes. Too arrogant! This was the Lambert family of Cloudside! This was Nigel Lambert’s mansion! In Cloudside, who would dare to talk to the Lambert family like this? Were these people fools? Were they from out of town and did not know the rules? It must be. After all, it was the first time they were seeing Chester Ludwig and his people. “Hehe, another ignorant guy. How dare he ask Master Lambert to get out here?” “This is the first time I've heard someone dare to speak like this at the entrance of the Lambert family’s mansion.” “Very brazen indeed. Who are these people?” The people at the gates continued talking while standing under the umbrellas,
Chester Ludwig and Nigel Lambert used to be very close buddies. However, changes in circumstances had altered their relationship drastically! The once good buddies had become opposing rivals. “Haha, Nigel, are you so afraid of me?” Chester said with a smirk. Nigel frowned, turned around, and stared coldly at Chester. He asked grimly, “What exactly do you want? I believe there’s nothing between us anymore.” After not seeing him for 20 years, Chester had become even more unfathomable. The sinister look in his eyes was even more terrifying than before. Chester chuckled and said, “Aren’t you going to invite me in?” Nigel frowned. After a moment of silence, he walked inside. Chester followed. Soon, the two entered the hall. Chester swaggered and sat down on the sofa, sipping the coffee made by the maid. Nigel stood aside, staring at Chester coldly. He asked, “What exactly do you want from me? If it's to chat with me about the past, then please go back.” Nigel would n
Nigel took the small gold bracelet with his brows furrowed together. He thought about it and shouted to Chester, “Wait here!” After saying that, he quickly crossed the front hall and went straight to the backyard. At this moment, Philip and the eight Dragon Warriors, as well as some of Nigel’s men, were discussing the next steps. Nigel walked over and respectfully said, “Young Master Clarke.” Philip turned his head, looked at Nigel, and asked, “What is it?” Nigel handed the small gold bracelet in his hand to Philip and said, “A visitor in the hall said that he knows the whereabouts of the young miss. This was given to me by him. He said you’ll understand when you see this.” Philip took the small gold bracelet. With just a glance at it, he stood up immediately. His body radiated chills, and his face was stern! This was Mila’s small gold bracelet! “Who’s the other party?” Philip asked in a cold voice, unable to suppress the anger inside him! Since the other party had th
Chester glanced at Nigel with a big sneer at the corner of his mouth. He turned around and left with his men. It was not until Chester had left that Nigel said anxiously, “Young Master Clarke, I’ll send someone to follow him now. I’ll definitely bring the young miss back safely!” Philip shook his head and said, “No, since he dares to show up at your doorstep personally, it means that he’s prepared. We’re out in the open while he’s operating in the dark. We need to reconsider this.” Then, Philip looked at Nigel and said, “Tell me everything about Chester Ludwig.” Nigel wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and explained all the information he knew about Chester. Philip listened silently, his frown getting deeper and deeper. At first thought, this Chester Ludwig was not a guy to be messed with. There had to be someone behind him. Moreover, Philip was very sure that this was his first time meeting Chester and he had no contact with him before. If the other party was here
Rabbit hopped around the grandmaster and felt that the latter was not lying. Rabbit had weathered many storms with Philip. He knew that according to human legends, the elves should be noble creatures. They were always arrogant and avoided contact with other creatures. “Anyway, since we’re here, let’s take a look inside. Who knows if any surprises are waiting for us?” Rabbit comforted Philip, and Black Rabbit was startled by his words. “You seem disappointed by this discovery. It doesn’t make sense to me. Are you really not aware of this situation?” Amid Black Rabbit's confusion, everyone entered the territory to watch the fun. Since the guard was enjoying his wonderful life, he did not pay attention to the invaders. He was supposed to be on duty with another guard today, but he swapped the other guard out because he wanted to be on a date with this female elf. The two were having a great romantic time in the room. Philip and his people entered the territory of the elves w
Later, the humans attacked the stone monsters, leaving the stone woman the only remaining survivor. Then, the elves found her. In the end, she was enslaved and became the gatekeeper of the elves. “Don’t blame me for your bad luck if you refuse to believe me. The humans are not to be trifled with. I’m sure you guys are no match for them,” the stone woman said vehemently. She came here with good intentions to report her findings. She wanted to claim the credit, but the other party disregarded her. The stone woman fought Philip earlier and knew exactly how strong he was. Although she was weaker than the elves, she knew that Philip could crush them easily and they would not be able to do anything about it. The elf warrior who received the message did not report the incident but returned to his station happily. He had been flirting with his female companion before they were interrupted. He had finally found a suitable female elf after so many years of being single, so he had no
Black Rabbit squeezed out a flattering smile and nodded excitedly at Philip. “Don’t worry. I’ll lie to anyone but you. I’ve decided to see you as my master and follow you from now on.” Rabbit was disgusted by Black Rabbit’s flattering look. “We’ll arrive soon. Although that woman is a bit scary, she’s nothing compared to you.” Meanwhile, the stone woman arrived at the elves’ location. Since the forest belonged to them, and coupled with the natural characteristics of a stone, she was very fast and arrived at the elves' territory before Philip and the others. The stone woman knelt at the door and stared ahead in a panic. “Are the elves around? Please come out. I need to speak to you,” the stone woman shouted at the door anxiously. An elf walked out unhappily with a weapon in hand. “Why are you making a fuss here? Do you want to die?” The elves were very arrogant and would never allow such an ugly thing to make a fuss at their door. It was not only impolite but also affect
“I know how you managed to survive, but I’m not interested in it. Don’t worry, we’re not one of those people. I won’t do anything to you.” When the stone woman collected the stones, Philip realized that the stones were connected to the woman's body. The stones felt different from ordinary stones because they had been carefully nurtured by the woman, which was quite amazing. “Leave now. Stay no longer. I’m afraid to see humans now.” The stone woman trembled and took several steps back. She entered a cave and refused to show herself again. The stone woman had done no actual harm to them, and she was truly afraid of them. Philip waved his hand and led everyone away without further ado. He was not interested in that ugly woman. Black Rabbit hugged Philip's thigh in fear along the way, feeling extremely nervous. He had thought that Philip and his people were warriors of a certain race, but they turned out to be humans. After joining the humans, he had no way of backing out. He hat
Trapping her opponent with stones was the stone woman’s strongest killing move. Once this method failed, it proved that the opponent was strong—at least not someone she could deal with. At this point, she had no choice but to surrender. However, she had said so many harsh words earlier that she felt too embarrassed to back down now. “Why are you so strong?” Philip and the others did not hide their identities or disguise their appearances with fake ears and tails. The stone woman looked at them in puzzlement. “You don’t have any clear racial distinction, and I don’t sense any racial power in you. Are you humans?” the woman yelled in horror, shocked to see humans roaming freely in the world of the gods. Philip was puzzled, wondering how she came to that conclusion. He thought they looked pretty good. She could hardly determine that they were humans simply because they had no ears or tails. Seeing Philip's confusion, the stone woman knew her guess was right. These people in fr
“Are you looking for the elves? If so, you came to the wrong place. You might've had the chance to see the elves if you had taken a detour at the front, but now that you’re in my territory, you have no chance of getting out alive no matter how strong you are.” Philip nodded at her explanation. “In other words, you’re nothing but a watchdog raised by the elves,” Philip said with a smile. The woman was furious by that remark. “Damn it, go to hell!” The woman waved her hand at the stones on the side, and the stones moved. Everyone watched her actions curiously. “Did you think I managed to live to this day by relying solely on my domain? Hehe, you’re greatly mistaken. I have exactly what it takes to deal with you!” The stones attacked Philip. They were not ordinary stones but humanoid creatures made of stones! They were very tall and seemed determined to crush Philip with sheer size. His exotic fire did not affect them. They were not ordinary stones, and stone was not afraid
The woman was clearly startled by Philip’s remarks. “That’s none of your business!” Before she could say anything else, there was a loud crack, and the domain that the woman was so proud of suddenly shattered. Everyone’s vision was restored to normal, and they saw an ugly woman in front of them. The woman stood in front of them, spitting blood as she glared at Philip with anger and disbelief. “How did you break my domain? That’s impossible! Someone of your level is no match for me!” Philip sneered at the woman’s confidence, “If you had other underhanded tricks, maybe I’d be no match for you, but your level is nothing worth mentioning." Although her domain was powerful for normal people, it was nothing to him. Philip had awakened his own domain ages ago, so he had done some research on this topic. In reality, he did not destroy the other party's domain with his strength but simply shrouded his people in his domain, which he had full control over. After everyone entered h
“No way! Then who held my hand just now? I felt a woman holding my hand. It couldn't be Katie, so who else could it be but you?” Everyone complained, and Philip felt something was wrong. “I didn’t!” Katie quickly clarified. Hearing everyone bickering over it, Philip said, “To be honest, I felt someone holding my hand too. If it’s not one of us, there must be other people in the dark. We need to watch out and don’t let them get their way!” Everyone scowled, surprised by Philip’s remark. At this time, Black Rabbit tentatively grabbed Philip’s pants. “I told you to hurry, but you guys refused to listen. There’s a strange woman who has been living here for a long time! She’s a force to be reckoned with. If possible, we should grope through the dark and leave this place quickly. Don't stay here any longer. It’ll be bad if we lose our lives here!” Black Rabbit said nervously. He had never been here but he had heard the legend of this woman. It was rumored that the woman would c
Black Rabbit had led Rabbit’s brother to join the wraiths. Although he regretted it, he felt proud to have groomed such a loyal subordinate. “Everyone, you need to give it your all. We have no time to lose.” Seeing the sky getting darker, Black Rabbit seemed worried. Everyone felt annoyed by Black Rabbit’s order. “You dare to order us around when your strength has been taken away?” Aslan complained about the arrogant guy. Black Rabbit looked at Philip nervously without a word. He knew that Philip was the final decision-maker. The others were Philip's subordinates. Philip did not notice anything strange. Black Rabbit was up to something. Philip did not think he would give them a warning for no reason. While everyone traveled as fast as they could, the whole forest went dark. Everyone frowned at this sudden change. They were traveling under the scorching sun one second ago, but their vision went dark the next second. Something was clearly wrong. “Philip, I can’t see y
