“Why are you looking for me?” Philip asked solemnly. Vivian took off her wide sunglasses and said directly, “Madam told me to tell you that Martin and Bernard are Madam’s people. She hopes you won’t make things too difficult for them. Moreover, from today onward, the two of them will have no connection to Beacon Group.” After saying that, Vivian turned around and wanted to leave. Philip raised his eyebrows and made a sudden movement to grab Vivian’s arm with one hand. Vivian frowned, turned around, and raised her leg high to kick Philip’s neck! Philip stepped sideways and dodged the kick. “Young Master Clarke, please watch yourself!” Vivian coldly said while turning back around, swaying her hips as she got into the car and left. Philip chuckled and said, “How extraordinary. I haven't seen her so powerful before. I didn’t expect that she would improve so quickly after not seeing her for so long.” Theo had been standing behind Philip and was shocked when he saw Philip sud
The guards of Cirrus Villa had surrounded Philip and 17 at this moment, their faces looking grim. It seemed that if Philip were to make any aggressive movements, they would swarm over and take him down! “Young Master Clarke, this is Cirrus Villa, not Arcadia Island. Here, only Madam has the final say.” At this time, the captain of the guards walked out from behind the crowd while dressed in a black suit. He had a burly figure, a tough face, and tanned skin. Philip raised his eyebrows and looked over. The corners of his mouth formed a small smile as he said, “If I want to go in, are you going to stop me?” The captain’s face darkened and he replied, “Madam has given an order that she won’t be meeting any guests today no matter who shows up. I hope you won’t give us a hard time, Young Master Clarke.” “Is that so? From what you’re saying, are you going to make a move against me?” Philip’s face darkened as he took a step forward and stood directly in front of that captain. Spa
Bam! As a result, Philip’s kick was faster than the opponent's and landed squarely on the captain’s stomach. The latter flew back, knocked over several people behind him, and fell heavily to the ground! “I’m not killing you because you’re doing your duty! Now, I'm warning you once more, get out of my way!” Philip was furious. Cold intent and sparks were bursting out of his eyes! He wanted to go in and ask Giada what she intended to do. Was she involved in Martin Johnston’s incident? If so, Philip would definitely not let her go! The captain who fell to the ground stood up with the help of his men, wiped the blood that spilled from the corner of his mouth, and shouted sullenly, “Young Master Clarke, you can't get through today! Take him down!” At that furious shout, dozens of heavily armed guards from all around rushed toward Philip. However, Philip just flicked a glance around while 17, who was next to him, suddenly struck out with vicious movements and at lightning s
There was no decorative playacting, they were all ruthless deadly moves! Just a little inattention and one would be killed! In just half a minute, 17 and Vivian had already exchanged a dozen blows! Bam! Suddenly, 17 kicked Vivian squarely in the chest, causing the latter to take several steps back! Philip could not help but feel a pain in his chest when he watched this. Such delicate-looking women, how could they be so brutal in a fight? He thought it would last for a while, but the next second, the winner was already determined! The butterfly blades in 17’s hands were pressed directly on Vivian’s fair and delicate neck. She said proudly, “Hmph, the young master said that your skills aren’t bad, but I think they're just so-so.” “You!” Vivian’s eyes widened in anger as she clenched her fists, seemingly unconvinced. Right then, Philip calmly walked over and looked at Vivian, saying, “Miss Vivian, can you take me to see Giada now?” Vivian snorted furiously, turned ar
Thump, thump, thump! In an instant, dozens of heavily armed combatants rushed out of the hall. They were all ready to fight and were staring at Philip intently. It was just that the weapons in their hands were pointed downward. The corners of Philip's eyes froze. He stared at Vivian before glancing around, laughing as he said, “Why? Do you want to make a move against me first?” Giada put the teacup down, keeping her eyes on 17 who was next to Philip. The little girl seemed unconcerned with what was happening in front of her. It was as though in her eyes, these people were just toys. “That’s enough. Back down. Why is it so difficult for me to talk to my son?” Giada said at this moment. With a smile blooming in her eyes, she looked at Philip tenderly and lovingly, saying, “Philip, you can be considered my half-son. Why can’t we sit down and talk?” Hearing that, Philip’s face went cold as he shouted, “I only have one mother. You’re unworthy!” Giada nodded and said with
Philip left Cirrus Villa and headed back to First Palace. It was getting late, and Riverdale was not peaceful tonight. Theo had arranged for people to monitor all of Riverdale. Theo had arranged for people to keep a close watch on those directors who were involved in the incident with Beacon this time, in case they would be of use to Philip. After Philip returned to First Palace, Theo hurried over and said, “Mr. Clarke, Martin and Bernard have privately contacted several members of Beacon’s board of directors for a secret private meeting in the Hyatt Hotel. Do you want to go over and take a look?” Philip frowned and asked, “A secret meeting? Have you found out who’s attending?” Theo quickly and respectfully handed the information of the people he had looked into to Philip and said, “It’s all here. These are all the investors who invested in Beacon at the beginning. They’re also members of the company's board of directors. However, after investigating their financial transacti
Hiss! The atmosphere in the small conference room became extremely somber all of a sudden. “Why is he back all of a sudden? Did you detain him?” Mr. Jenkins from earlier asked nervously at this moment. Another person also followed and asked, “He’d better not ruin our plan at this juncture or all our efforts will be wasted.” “What exactly is the situation, Mr. Johnston? Quickly tell us.” Martin nodded and said, “According to our plan, our people would detain him and Wynn as long as they appeared. But now there are some problems. Philip is not as simple as we thought. Even Webster Shaw has been arrested because of him. Moreover, according to the information I received, Theo Zander is also working for Philip—most likely for Wynn. He came back this time and brought a lot of people with him. Theo also arrived in Riverdale not long ago and helped Philip resolve the crisis. Hence, our operation has failed this time.” After Martin finished speaking, the entire conference room fell
This furious roar shook the entire room until it was buzzing! Everyone followed the sound and saw Philip with his hands in his trouser pockets, followed by Theo who respectfully stood at his side. They were leading a dozen thugs in black suits who were barging in! At this moment, everyone panicked! Martin’s face was dark as he stared at Philip who was approaching him. He said solemnly, “Who let you in? I’ve reserved this room. Get out of here!” Martin was furious. This Philip Clarke was really lawless! He even barged into his private room! Thinking about what Philip had done to him earlier, Martin was very upset. If he did not personally teach this arrogant junior a lesson, what qualifications did he have to continue to stay in Riverdale? “Philip, this conference room has been reserved by my second brother. Get out of here immediately!” Bernard Johnston, who was on the side, also stood up at this moment and angrily pointed at Philip's nose while cursing. However...
Jamie was surprised by Philip’s easygoing reaction and immediately felt the gap between him and Philip. If Jamie were in Philip’s shoes, he would be worried, but Philip was confident instead. Jamie had a lot to learn from Philip. Jamie had no idea that Philip did not take Dennis seriously at all. Philip had too many capable people under his command. He was not concerned about Dennis at all. In comparison, Dennis could be considered the most useless person under him.… On the other hand, Rabbit arrived at the market. Rabbit was quite famous among the major families by now. As a non-human with a violent temper, he was in the center of attraction wherever he went. Someone tried to kidnap Rabbit once, but not only did he fail, but the person was also beaten badly. To this day, the kidnapper was still bedridden in the hospital. Rabbit’s notorious reputation had spread far and wide, and not just anyone could deal with him. At this time, many storytellers were at the tavern tal
People in seclusion would usually not receive any news from the outside world, so contacting them would be up to luck. Therefore, Lincoln's appearance was good news for the Hexa Guild. Now that the guild was under scrutiny, Lincoln's appearance would save them a lot of trouble. Lincoln stood on the spot, looking at the yard curiously. Philip had modified the yard, so it was full of energy. Any practitioner would feel the difference at once. Jamie and the others had discovered this fact but never asked out of courtesy. Everyone had their own secret. Maybe this was Philip’s secret. Lincoln closed his eyes and felt the abundant energy. He was reluctant to leave this place that contained tens of thousands of times more energy than the place he had chosen for his seclusion. Lincoln felt conflicted. He could practice much faster in this place if the energy level remained the same. Thinking of this, he could hardly contain his excitement to practice on the spot. Seeing Jamie nex
Lincoln had never met a monster beast with intelligence! After taking a closer look at Rabbit, Lincoln had other ideas. Philip was most likely a powerful person with extraordinary strength to have such a powerful monster beast as his pet. Dennis was not a fool. Philip had to be powerful and not a coward for Dennis to willingly follow him. Thinking of this, Lincoln showed Rabbit enough respect. “Mr. Rabbit, I’m looking for Dennis from the Hexa Guild.” The guild members behind him were full of disbelief at his courtesy. They had served him for a while and knew his character very well. Lincoln would never be so polite to ordinary juniors, so this rabbit had to be unusual. Thinking of this, their attitude toward Rabbit changed from disdain to admiration. Rabbit was shocked by their eccentric behavior and looked at them skeptically. Seeing their smiling faces, Rabbit decided not to make things difficult for them. Besides, they were polite. “Oh, you’re looking for Dennis. Come
This guild member could not forget how Hogster had always stolen his resources by force. Hogster’s ugly face made him sick. Although Lincoln was back, he had lost all confidence in the guild. He just wanted to return to Dennis' side as soon as possible. Although he was a member under the guild leader, Dennis was the one who had been helping him all along. In fact, if not for Dennis’ support over the years, even Alain would not have achieved what he had today. Hence, this guild member had always been grateful to Dennis. When Dennis left, he wanted to leave with him, but due to special circumstances, he stayed until now. Unexpectedly, it came in handy. Alain was excited to hear that. In Alain's opinion, such a lowly member would not dare to lie to him, so he had to be telling the truth. He knew that this was his chance to settle everything once and for all. Alain had been worried that Lincoln would blame him, but Lincoln was deceived instead, which was great. He had nothing t
Lincoln had a very good reputation, so the guild members dropped their guard and started to complain about everything. “Grandmaster, we've been having a hard time. Hogster always deducts our practice resources and gives them to the women he likes. It’s infuriating. We don’t even have that many resources to begin with,” a member said miserably. He had good talent, but Hogster did not give him any good resources, so his level remained stagnant. All his resources had been given to the women who had caught Hogster’s fancy. Lincoln scowled upon hearing this. How could Hogster take other people’s resources? He would not allow this to happen. “They also tried every means to arrange a political marriage with the Celestial Palace, but the agreement fell through, and they badmouthed the other party for it!” “They defamed the young lady of the guild, and now, they're furious at us. Their wrath is not a joke. Moreover, someone solved the side effects of their practice technique, but we'v
If Philip was at fault, Lincoln had nothing to say. However, if Hogster was the one who had caused all the trouble, he would not spare them. “I’ll get to the bottom of this. Now, tell me what’s going on with Dennis. Based on my understanding of him, he wouldn't betray the guild for no reason. He must have a reason for doing this!” Neither of them could explain what happened to Dennis. They could only say that humans were fickle. After all, they could not figure it out either. The person at fault would never admit their fault. Alain did not think that he was biased or thought that what he had done was excessive. He simply thought that Dennis looked down on him, which was why he decided to leave. Now that he was gone, Alain could say whatever he wanted, and Dennis could not defend himself. Thinking of this, Alain was very excited. He began to defame Dennis and shifted the attention away from him and his son. Lincoln scowled as he listened. Then, he returned to his room and summ
Alain was helpless. Although he had a lot to say, he could not do anything in front of Lincoln. Lincoln was stronger than him in every aspect, a force to be reckoned with. He was not someone Alain could deal with. Alain looked at Lincoln awkwardly. He wanted to appease his anger but did not know what to say. “You need to explain this to me. Why did Dennis leave? And I want to know why the guild’s reputation has become so bad. Did you do something wrong?”Lincoln heard that Dennis had been expelled and could no longer stay in the guild. Many people supported Dennis, so they were upset with Alain and tried to defame him. Hearing that, Alain knew that someone must have been talking behind his back, but he did not dare to lose his temper. He forced a smile and looked at Lincoln in a flattering manner. Before he could find an excuse, Hogster rushed over excitedly and said to his father, “Father, guess what I did to Philip? Hehe!” Hogster recounted his handiwork smugly without p
It had been years since the grandmaster went into seclusion for practice. He was not concerned about power. He once mentioned that he would not leave his seclusion unless he reached the top. Hence, no one expected to see him. “Grandmaster, you appeared at the right time. We would've been in trouble if you didn't come out!” “That’s right. Everyone is bullying us. Now that you’re out, you can help us.” Everyone complained about their grievances, feeling sorry for themselves. The Hexa Guild was in trouble, and they faced various problems too. All the major guilds were keeping a close eye on the Hexa Guild, waiting to see them make a fool of themselves. The Celestial Palace planned to destroy the Hexa Guild instead of letting them off. They could not accept the initial setup, so they decided to erase the Hexa Guild from existence. Hence, the Hexa Guild had been under great pressure, with the members wishing that someone could help them. Unexpectedly, a strong expert appeared.
Ronan was his buddy, and his wife's reputation was at stake. Philip could not stand idly by. He had to help. Jamie was very fast at ordering his people to make the matter public. No one expected another dramatic turn of events. Everyone thought that the young lady of the Celestial Palace was an unchaste woman for making that decision. Unexpectedly, the Celestial Palace found a way to solve the side effects of their technique. All the major guilds were in trepidation. Although the Celestial Palace’s technique was very powerful, the side effects reduced its allure. Now that that problem was solved, everything was different. On top of that, the holy maiden and other members of the guild showed their appearance in public. Regardless of gender, everyone was beautiful without any markings on their faces. After seeing this scene, everyone knew that the Celestial Palace was about to make a comeback. Carlos was very excited and thought that Vanna was a lucky star to bring so many
