Kelsey quickly nodded and said, “Of course, I do. I’ll say I screwed things up and didn’t even see you.” “No!” Philip abruptly said, “Just tell them the truth. Furthermore, you have to tell the branch family and the law enforcement hall how I beat you up and how I opposed the law enforcement hall.” “Cousin, what do you mean by that?” This time, it was Kelsey’s turn to wonder. Was this not putting him up on the chopping board? By doing this, Philip was just seeking his own death. If he returned and told his father and the law enforcement hall about this, Philip would be dead for sure. Was this guy out of his mind? Of course, if Philip was willing to do so, Kelsey could not be happier! The shame he suffered today would be returned tenfold! Philip glanced at him and said, “You don’t have to know what I mean. Just do as I said.” Kelsey dared not resist and just nodded, saying, “Okay, I understand.” After that, Philip waved his hand and shouted, “All of you can get los
A cold sneer. Philip looked at Allen and the others like he was looking at a bunch of idiots, a faint coldness flowing from his eyes. “Save? Why do I need saving?” Allen was furious. He pointed at Philip and shouted, “You’re simply outrageous! Are you planning to fight the branch family to the end? Philip, I’m telling you, the branch family will get you back for what happened today ten times over!” Philip laughed uproariously at that, and his laughter caused Connor, Allen, and Levi to feel chills and goosebumps all over their bodies. What did Philip mean by this? Was he really not afraid of the branch family at all? “Ten times over?” Philip said coldly, “Very well, Allen Clarke. I’ll remember your words. Back then, I said that I wanted your lineage to disappear from Arcadia Island forever. I’ll hold true to my words!” When Allen heard this and saw Philip’s grim face, he felt a chill in his heart! What was this kid going to do? Was he really going to drive his line
Connor’s face was dark as he said solemnly, “It’s better to be on guard. I can’t see through this brat.” That was right. Until now, Connor still could not see through Philip. He was already more than 80 years old with a lifetime of experience. He had seen all sorts of people and encountered all sorts of situations. However, the only thing that stood in his way was that he could not see through Philip Clarke. After Philip left the suite, a Maybach stopped at the entrance of the hotel as soon as he went outside. An old man stepped down from the car. It was the same Butler Kent who was with Sheryl Larson last night. “Young Master Clarke, this is the information that the young lady asked me to hand over to you.” Butler Kent bowed and respectfully handed the information in his hand to Philip. Philip took the documents, gave them a few glances, and nodded while saying, “Okay.” “I’ll take my leave, then.” Butler Kent turned around and wanted to leave. “Hold on.” Philip sud
The Alliance? How could it be? Was Hannah related to the Alliance? Philip was stunned. He stood in place with a complicated expression and asked, “How much have you found out?” On the other end of the phone, Fennel’s lazy voice turned serious as he said, “Not much yet. This matter is rather tricky to investigate. As you know, my power in the country is not that great. I have restrictions in many areas. However, I can help you inquire about the matters in Country M. As for the Beauty Killers, leave them to me.” Philip nodded and chatted a bit more with him before ending the call. Then, Philip left the hotel. However, at this time, his phone suddenly rang. The caller was actually his father-in-law, Charles Johnston. Why was his father-in-law calling him? After Philip answered the call, he heard Charles hurriedly speaking on the other end. “Philip, come to Seed Group quickly. Your mother-in-law and I have been kidnapped. They specifically said that you must come over!” P
Philip was dragged to the training ground behind Seed Group. With a clatter, the huge iron gate was pushed open. Saul Seed sat at the innermost area next to dozens of grim-faced thugs, each with steel pipes or baseball bats in their hands. Charles stood to the side and dared not move at all. Martha was still sitting in a wheelchair. Both of them were bruised and swollen, obviously beaten up. Zachary was on crutches, and his right arm was wrapped in bandages that hung from his neck. He was beaten out of the blue last night. The other party had said that it was Philip Clarke who told them to do it! At that time, Zachary was so angry that he spat out blood! Philip Clarke was so good at playing dirty! “Bring him in!” Zachary yelled. The security guards behind heard him and kicked Philip in. Then, the door was closed tightly. Philip coldly glanced at the two security guards next to him. Kicking him would make their lives shorter! “How dare you glare at me when you’
Zachary limped forward on his crutches and patted Philip’s face lightly with his uninjured left hand. “Philip, you’re awesome, aren’t you? You secretly got some people to teach me a lesson, huh? Let me tell you, I’m going to kill you today! Let’s see who in Uppercreek can save you! Don’t think I can’t do it. Do you know what our family does? I’m afraid you’ll piss your pants if I tell you! Today, many of them are armed. If you have the guts, tell Victor Bell to come and save you! Let’s see if he’s willing to die with you!” As Zachary said that, he slapped Philip on the face! The thugs next to him laughed. Seeing that Philip was not fighting back after being slapped, Zachary grew more arrogant and reckless! “Haha, what a wimp! Why aren’t you bragging today? I haven't been humiliated like yesterday since I was a kid! I heard that you have a beautiful wife. I’ll take care of you first, and tonight, I’ll kidnap your wife and sell her to the clubhouse!” Zachary said unscrupulous
Saul’s white eyebrows twitched as he quickly clapped his hands. Behind him, several bodyguards who had been waiting for a long time instantly rushed out! The other thugs saw that these people were making a move and quickly stepped aside. Several of them were still fighting with Philip and could not get away. They were knocked away by Saul’s bodyguards and instantly flew out. One of them rushed in like a thunderbolt. With a sweep of his leg, he kicked away the thug in front of him who was in the way! This bunch of losers should just get out of the way! The man spun twice in the air and fell to the ground heavily in a dead faint! Philip had long spotted these people behind Saul and knew they were not easy to handle. If three or four of them came over at once, even Philip would not be able to take them down. He could not be on the offensive for long. He must make this a speedy battle by attacking one at a time! The two bodyguards in front, one with an expandable baton and th
Turning around, he saw a foreign special bodyguard! His body was like a chunk of iron, and he had tanned skin. This foreign retired mercenary was unlike these brainless people who only knew how to rush into fights head-on. Since the beginning, he had been lurking around looking for opportunities. He was like a crocodile in the water waiting to catch its prey! This was a true master assassin! He had seen the opportunity, so he grabbed Philip in a flash and immediately tried to break his arm! Philip was taken aback and quickly performed a backflip to defuse the twisting force on his hand. Then, he jumped up to withdraw his hand and retreated to the back. This person was quite capable! Before Philip could react, the foreign bodyguard rushed over and his pair of big iron-like hands grabbed Philip's shoulders. Philip immediately felt a strange force coming from him. He felt the pain in his shoulders from being grabbed and quickly bent down to escape. Although his reactio
“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
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
