What did he mean by that? Would he dare to do anything to him? “What do you mean?” Martin asked warily. Philip chuckled and said, “Martin Johnston, my decision has never changed since the beginning. Since you’ve chosen to be Beacon and Wynn’s enemy, you should’ve gotten prepared for my retaliation. As for that secret in your hands, leak it out if you have the guts. Do you dare to make a bet with me? As long as you dare to expose the secret, I’ll kill you!” Martin froze, stunned by Philip’s indifferent appearance and calm attitude. The look in his eyes was terrifying. It seemed that as long as he leaked it out, what awaited him would be death! Hmph! Bernard snorted coldly, pointed at Philip, and shouted angrily, “Philip, don’t be arrogant! Are you treating us like pushovers who’ll be intimidated by a few words? We now own Martin Pharmaceutical and have so many talents. Can you really compete with us? Besides, even if we expose the secret, so what? Do you really dare to k
At this moment, Philip was like a battle god incarnate. His face was chilly, and his pupils reflected a biting killing intent! This sight stunned everyone in the suite! Hiss! What a shocking aura! Was this really the usually wretched Philip Clarke? Too horrifying! Martin was also shocked by Philip’s angry roar. He immediately took two steps back and stammered, “You… What do you want to do?” Philip looked grim. Behind him, Theo waved his hand and a dozen thugs in black suits quickly subdued everyone else. “Let go of us! Who are you to capture us?” “Let go! Theo Zander, what’s the matter with you? You're the kingpin of Riverdale. Why are you acting like a bodyguard for this guy?” “Philip, hurry up and tell them to stop. You’re making an illegal arrest!” Several people bellowed angrily but Theo and his men would not listen at all. They were waiting for Philip’s next orders. At this moment, Philip’s eyes were dark and cold. He glared at Martin in front of him as h
What if they accidentally annoyed Philip and got beaten up as a result? Therefore, all of them chose to protect themselves at the moment. They lowered their heads and were too afraid to speak up, but they still glanced around furtively. With a grave face, Philip stared at Martin whose face was flushed. The man was panting aloud. Philip said coldly, “Martin, I’ve given you many chances but you didn’t know how to appreciate them. I’ve considered using money to make you understand the difference between you and me, but after thinking about it carefully, I think it’s meaningless. It's better for me to personally let you experience the pain so that you may remember it for a lifetime!” After that, Philip directly threw Martin on the coffee table and the entire glass coffee table shattered into pieces! The broken glass stuck to Martin's back, arms, and legs, causing him to grimace in pain! “Aargh! Philip, how dare you do this to me?! I swear I won’t let you off!” Martin shouted. H
Immediately after, miserable screams from the crowd could be heard from the suite. It lasted about ten minutes before Theo wiped his hands with a towel, glanced at the people on the floor, and said, “Deal with it cleanly. Throw them to the next city and let them beg for the rest of their lives.” After that, Theo walked out of the suite and approached Philip who was smoking. He said respectfully, “Mr. Clarke, it’s been dealt with cleanly. Where do you want to go next?” “Go to the media arranged by Martin.” Philip’s face was calm as he exhaled smoke while asking, “Is everything else ready?” Theo nodded and replied, “It’s all ready. Not even a smidgen of Mrs. Clarke’s secret will be leaked. I’ve already contacted all the media in Riverdale. As for Martin’s people, I’ve also sent people to monitor all of them. The signal in the area they’re in has been cut.” Philip nodded, glanced at the suite, and turned to leave. Theo followed closely behind. When Bernard noticed no more
Jim hurried to the nearest computer to take a look. With a twitch of his eye, he said, “F*ck! No internet at this time? What’s going on?” “The neighborhood is being demolished. Could it be that the network cable has been cut?” “Don't worry, just call and ask.” One of them dialed the number of the telecommunication company. After questioning, he replied, “They said there’s no disconnection notice on our side and no one nearby has reported the same problem. It's not the signal.” “How is that possible? Isn't this obviously a case of disconnection?” Someone was anxious. Jim was also anxious as he glanced at the sky outside. His sixth sense gave him a bad feeling as if something was about to happen. “Everyone, check your phones to see if there's a signal,” Jim quickly said as he took out his phone to check. “Holy sh*t, there's no signal on my phone either!” “What the hell is going on here?” Jim saw that there was also no signal on his phone, but he had just answered a call
Jim looked at the information with a solemn expression on his face before he looked up at Philip and asked, “Mr. Clarke, are you sure you want to do this?” Philip nodded and said, “Ten minutes, can you do it? If not, I’ll find someone else. If you can, it’ll offset your blunder.” Jim gritted his teeth, immediately stood up, and said, “Yes, I can!” After that, he said to his subordinates behind him, “Everyone, hurry up! Spread the information on this paper to the entire Riverdale in ten minutes!” Philip did not bother to stay here for long. He simply turned around and left, leaving the rest for Theo to handle. Ten minutes later in the hospital ward Bernard rushed into the ward and shouted, “Martin, something went wrong! Jim betrayed us and was caught by Philip. Moreover, media all over Riverdale are broadcasting news about us embezzling Beacon’s funds. It’s also a trending search on Twitter right now. Even those things about us oppressing people have been dug up. What should
Several people were already standing in the ward. Charles and Martha looked anxious and distressed. Especially Martha, she kept pointing at Anne and Lydia while cursing. Wynn sat on the hospital bed and kept persuading her mother, “Mom, it has nothing to do with them.” Philip walked in, took a look around, and grabbed Martha's hand that was about to land a slap on Lydia’s face. He said sternly, “If you dare to do it, I'll have you end up lying on the hospital bed again!” Martha turned to look at Philip and was startled as though she had seen a ghost. She shouted, “When did you arrive?” After saying that, Philip shook off Martha’s hand, causing the latter’s face to grimace in pain. Her hand had not fully recovered yet. With this aggressive shove from Philip, it was almost broken again! Following that, Philip said coldly, “Go out. Don’t disturb Wynn’s rest.” Martha still wanted to curse and swear but was held back by Charles. Lydia Jensen and Anne Foster stood in front of
Philip stayed with Wynn in the hospital until the evening. After completing various tests, Wynn was discharged from the hospital and was ready to return to the hotel. There was nothing serious about her condition but the people around her were too nervous. After all, Wynn was about to give birth. Philip personally drove the car and did not allow Heath and his men to follow them. After all, Wynn was not aware of his power in Uppercreek. There were certain things he could not tell her just yet. After the matter involving Beacon and Martin Johnston was resolved and he took Wynn back to Arcadia Island, the time would be almost ripe. The car turned into a remote lane and they were almost less than two blocks away from the hotel. Suddenly, three vans flanked from the front and back, blocking Philip’s car. Philip was shocked and slammed on the brakes! At the same time, he reached out to grab hold of Wynn, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. He almost got thrown out! Ins
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
