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
The man dressed in a jacket said coldly, “This person is called Dan, the leader of the four. Master Ludwig thinks that this person is not reliable and will screw things up. But he’s someone who has followed Master Ludwig, after all. Master Ludwig doesn’t want to take things into his own hands, so you’ll do it for him.” Kinley took the photo, glanced at it, handed it to Sidney, saying, “Do it according to Master Ludwig’s instructions and make it clean. Leave no traces or clues behind.” Sidney nodded repeatedly before leaving the suite. In the suite, only Chester and the rest were left. “Master Ludwig, can we really get rid of Philip in one go at the Imperial Jade Quarry three days later?” Kinley was still a little skeptical and said, “As far as I know, Philip is not an ordinary person. He’s also a Dragon Warrior and this is Cloudside. If something really happens, it might alert that supreme.” It was not unreasonable for Kinley to be so worried. Cloudside City shared border
Hehe, was Chester Ludwig trying to outsmart Kinley Wes? Dream on! At the same time, seven or eight men shrouded in black raincoats arrived at Serene Town, which was a mile away from Cloudside! It was a small town with a population of just over 100,000. In the town, two black vans quickly stopped at the entrance of a hotel with flashing signs. Swoosh! The car doors opened and eight men in raincoats stepped down, each having long daggers wrapped in newspapers hidden in their arms. The group of people looked at each other. The man in the lead wore a mask and had very sinister eyes! He gestured to his men and quickly led five of them to push open the glass door of the hotel before walking in. The rain outside had not abated and was splattering. At the entrance, two guys were left to stand watch to prevent anyone from escaping. Once inside, the man in the lead took out the photo and asked the obese woman at the front desk in a cold voice, “Which room are these people s
The other three looked at Dan, gritted their teeth, and said with a bow, “Dan, we’ll leave them to you!” After saying that, all three men turned around and rushed downstairs. As for Dan, he carried Mila and followed a few meters behind them. Coincidentally, at the stairway of the third floor, Dan’s men saw the other six men coming out from the room and rushed straight at them! Dan took the opportunity to run down the stairs! Behind him, miserable screams rang incessantly! Dan’s heart seized and he paused briefly, but he soon continued running downstairs without turning back! As soon as he reached the main door on the first floor, he saw two men smoking while guarding the door. He immediately turned to his side. The fat woman at the front desk saw him and was about to yell when she saw Dan taking out a wad of money. He anxiously said in a low voice, “Sister, please help. My enemy is after us. This is my daughter. Please escort us out.” The fat woman was dubious but gla
Bang! At this time, the door was pushed open and a man who was not burly but still somehow looked sturdy came in. His pants and shoes were already wet. Upon entering, he respectfully stood in front of Kinley, knelt on one knee, and said, “Master Kinley, something went wrong. Dan escaped with that little girl.” “What?!” Hearing this, Sidney was shocked and could not help but exclaim. His face looked very tense and his breathing became rapid! Kinley still maintained his composure and asked, “What happened?” The man said, “Our men arrived at the hotel and dealt with three of them. Dan drove away and his car later overturned, sending it crashing down the mountain road. I’ve already sent our men down to search for them but they couldn’t find anyone. There were only bloodstains. I presume he’s not dead but is hiding in the forest with the little girl.” “Why aren’t you looking for them, then?” Sidney flew into a rage and kicked him. The man fell to the ground without any com
This night seemed to stretch on endlessly. In the luxurious suite, Chester was sitting on the sofa and sipping on warm tea. He would check the documents in his hands from time to time. At this time, a subordinate walked in through the door and said respectfully, “Master Ludwig, Kinley Wes requests to see you.” Chester frowned slightly before stretching. He then said with a smile, “Let him in.” After a while, Kinley appeared in the suite with a walking cane while smiling. He respectfully greeted, “Master Ludwig.” Chester smiled, motioned Kinley to sit down, and said, “I just brewed a pot of tea. Try it.” Kinley did not decline the hospitality. He picked up the cup, took a sip, and exclaimed, “Good brew, fragrant and citrusy. It must be the specialty Earl Grey tea of Cloudside.” “Oh, are you aware of this special blend too?” Chester asked with a laugh. “Haha, to tell you the truth, I visited Cloudside a few years ago and stayed here to recuperate for a while. Only the Ear
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
