“Why are you telling me this? The Clarke family is still the Clarke family. With my father and me around, the Clarke family will not fall,” Philip said flatly. He wanted to figure out Sheryl’s purpose in looking for him tonight. Was it merely to reminisce about the past? Impossible! He had seen Sheryl’s methods when he was a child. She may look weak on the surface but her heart was full of schemes. There were rumors that Sheryl Larson was a candidate to be the future head of the Larson family. That was right. A female candidate as the head of the Larson family in Fernvale would definitely cause a worldwide sensation! Sheryl turned around, looked at Philip seriously, and said, “Philip, don't you want to find the people behind the scenes? Don't you want to find out the truth about your mother's accident back then?” At the mention of his mother, Philip’s expression turned cold. He stared at Sheryl with scorching eyes and asked coldly, “Do you know something about my mo
Hearing this, Philip, who just stood up, abruptly turned around. He stared at Sheryl grimly, an invincible aura suddenly erupting from his body. He asked solemnly, “Are you threatening me?” “No, I'm making a deal with you. A deal between the Larson family and the future head of the Clarke family.” Sheryl had a faint smile on her face as if she was not at all afraid of the monstrous chill that was surging through Philip's body at this moment. After a while, Philip retracted his intense aura. He stared at Sheryl darkly and said, “What kind of deal do you want to make?” Sheryl smiled gently like the sunshine in March. She stretched out her slender hand and said, “Please have a seat.” Philip waved his hand and said, “No need, I’m in a hurry. Let’s listen to your deal.” Sheryl smiled sweetly and said, “I can give you your sister’s news in Country M in exchange for you replacing the Larson family to go to Nonagon.” After saying this, Sheryl sat there quietly, waiting for Philip
He had to figure out what kind of existence the Alliance was. Philip squeezed his fists bitterly, ready to get up and leave. However, at this time, Sheryl said, “Philip, the Nonagon is not as simple as you think. You have to be prepared. Moreover, according to what I’ve heard, Nonagon has selected more candidates nationwide than in the past this time. Their actions show their urgency. I think there must be a problem and they’re eager to solve it.” After hearing this, Philip said, “Thank you.” Then, he left this place. After a while, Butler Kent walked in and bowed to Sheryl who was drinking coffee. He said, “Miss, he has left.” Sheryl’s expression was bland with a trace of uncertainty in her eyes as she asked, “Butler Kent, do you think it’s right for me to do this?” Butler Kent smiled slightly and said, “Miss, there’s no right or wrong decision. As long as it’s your decision, the Larson family will execute it.” “Really?” Sheryl pursed her lips suddenly and said, “I j
Back to Philip. He returned to the hotel and found that Wynn had fallen asleep. Thus, he sat on the sofa, took out the two phoenix feather pendants, and started studying them. The fiery red phoenix feather pendants had obscure and incomprehensible patterns on them. From the looks of it, they both really were just jade pendants. Nothing unusual could be seen from them. What kind of existence was the door? What role did the Nonagon play, and was his mother’s accident related to the Nonagon? Philip was skeptical. Originally, he had targeted the former supreme, but now, it seemed that the stakes were more complicated than he imagined! Was there something deeper going on between the former supreme and the Nonagon? Philip sat on the sofa and looked at the pendants for a while. Then, a gentle voice sounded behind him. A tender hand pressed on his shoulder and the woman asked gently, “What's wrong? What are you thinking about?” Philip touched the small hand on his shoulder, loo
Damn it! Was Philip Clarke making fun of him? Then, Philip’s next sentence made Kelsey even more ashamed. Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets and said nonchalantly, “Kelsey Clarke, have you forgotten how I beat you up yesterday?” As soon as he said that, everyone on Victor’s side laughed. This made Kelsey very embarrassed. His face darkened and he gritted his teeth with hatred. While pointing at Philip angrily, he said, “Philip, stop being so arrogant! I’m not here today to compete with you on numbers. Hurry up and release them! Otherwise, I’ll bring my people and barge in. At that time, anything that happens will be your responsibility! Besides, I’m representing my father today. Listen carefully, it’s my father, the chieftain of the branch family, giving you a final warning to release my family members!” Kelsey was upset, especially when those people opposite laughed at him. It made him even more upset! He was the young master of the branch family, after all. Whe
Kelsey was taken aback. When he saw Philip's seemingly murderous gaze, he felt uncomfortable all over as if he was being stared at by a fierce beast. His heart jumped wildly and he could not help but take a few steps back. He was stammering as he shouted, “You... What do you want to do? I’m telling you, Philip, I’m representing my father this time. Listen carefully. This is my father’s ultimatum to you. Release them at once! Otherwise, my father will personally come to Uppercreek! By then, you’ll be done for!” Kelsey was not telling lies. This was indeed what his father had told him. If Philip did not release them, the chieftain would come to Uppercreek in person! By then, the entire city would be under martial law! In front of the chieftain of the branch family, even Philip would have to bow and pay his respects! Philip frowned when he heard this. With a face full of dissatisfaction, he pondered. Would the chieftain of the branch family come to Uppercreek in person? Se
The damned law enforcement hall had been colluding with the branch family! “How about it, Philip? I'm asking you once again, will you let them go?” Kelsey was floating on air right now. He was full of confidence. He had his father and the law enforcement hall behind him. No matter how powerful Philip was, he would not dare to openly oppose the joint order from the six elders of the law enforcement hall! Philip’s face was gloomy as he glanced at the arrogant Kelsey. Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he said, “Kelsey, do you think that such a thing can make me toe the line?” After that, Philip crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into a nearby trash can! Kelsey froze, completely unable to believe Philip’s audacity! “Insolence! That’s the joint order of the law enforcement hall. You actually dare to be so lawless and audacious! You’re openly opposing the law enforcement hall of the Clarke family! I have the right to take you down right now!”
The Sovereignty Seal?! The guards of the branch family were all dumbfounded when they saw the jade ring on Philip’s thumb! All of them were trembling with their eyes wide open! Instantly, these guards respectfully knelt on one knee and shouted in unison, “Young Master Clarke!” However, Kelsey still did not understand what was going on and still shouted behind everyone, “F*ck! Why are you kneeling? Charge over, I say! All of you are rubbish!” He suddenly raised his head and stared at Philip with flushed eyes. He was just about to chastise when his eyes fell on the jade ring on Philip’s thumb. He immediately went mute and the anger that welled in his throat was being swallowed down! Was that the freaking Sovereignty Seal? Kelsey was flustered as his legs went weak. How was he supposed to play this game now? At this time, Philip's face was indifferent. With a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, he looked at the flustered and trembling Kelsey, asking, “Now, what do yo
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
