Horace walked in with light steps, knelt beside the old man lying on the wicker chair, and said, “First Elder.” The old man did not say a word and continued to rest with his eyes closed. At his side, the servant gently waved the fan. Speaking of Horace Clarke, he had the same seniority as Roger and also belonged to the same generation. He was one of the few talented people of the main Clarke family. He was also Roger’s younger half-brother. His status and identity in the main family were quite high. He was also highly regarded by Roger. About ten minutes later, the old man on the wicker chair said with his eyes closed, “Little Horace, why are you here?” Horace knelt on the ground and said, “First Elder, the third elder is bringing people to the main family.” The old man hummed and said, “Let it be, it’s nothing. It's time to make some noise. The Clarke family has been quiet for too long. It’s good to make a fuss to make things livelier.” Horace was anxious and hurri
With the sound of Desmond’s roar at the entrance of this magnificent palace, hundreds of law enforcement hall guards stood ready for battle with guns raised and aimed at the main gate. However, even after a long time, no one came out! Desmond’s face darkened, and his eyes flashed sharply. He waved his big hand and shouted, “Charge inside and arrest him! Anyone who resists will have their limbs broken!” “Yes!” A vanguard that consisted of a dozen people immediately walked into this golden palace in a combat stance with their guns raised. They stomped on their boots. However, at this moment, two figures appeared hurriedly at the door. Wynn and Lydia stood at the door, looking at the scene in front of them in astonishment. “W-Who are you people? Philip isn’t here. If you’re looking for him, come back later.” Wynn was scared and panicking. She was facing hundreds of guards with guns! How could she, a woman who had just given birth, not be afraid? Lydia stood next to W
Bang! Another few rounds later, Lydia was kicked in the stomach and flew out again! This time, the opponent's kick was very powerful! Lydia fell to the ground with a pained expression. She clutched her stomach and threw up bile, her whole body shaking. At this scene, Wynn burst into tears. She ran up to her and shouted, “No, Lydia, don’t.” Lydia turned to Wynn with an innocent and brilliant smile, saying, “Sister Wynn, don't worry, I'm fine. With me around, I won’t let anyone hurt you. This is what I promised Brother Philip.” Boom! As soon as she said that! A forceful punch! One guard punched Lydia’s cheek! With this punch, Lydia fell on her back. Her ears were ringing, and her mouth was gushing blood! Thud! Immediately after, the guard kicked the chest of Lydia, who was lying unconscious on the ground! Blergh! This time, Lydia spat a mouthful of blood and passed out. Thump! Seeing this scene, Wynn slumped at the doorway with eyes full of tears. She look
Philip’s magnificent figure stood at the end of that golden avenue! Behind him, the entire troop of Griffin Army with armor and weapons, all wearing black masks with a biting chill in their eyes, stared fixedly at the hundreds of guards of the law enforcement hall at the entrance. As long as the young lord gave an order, they would engulf these people like a torrent! Desmond turned around with a cruel sneer and murderous intent in his eyes. He looked at Philip and yelled, “Philip, you really dare to show up and suffer death!” Philip stepped forward silently and walked past Desmond and the rest. Oblivious! He did not pay the slightest attention to Desmond! This made Desmond furious! Arrogant! This arrogant kid from the main family actually dared to ignore his great-granduncle! Desmond watched as Philip passed by in front of him. He walked steadily to Wynn, squatted down, put his arm around her shoulder, and said softly, “Wynnie, I’m back.” After that, he looked at
With the spear in his hand, Philip flicked the spearhead that carried a piercing purple-gold glint and pointed directly at Desmond who stood in the distance with his hands behind his back! “Old man, for beating up my people on my territory, you really deserve to die!” Philip said coldly. Desmond was still shocked by Philip’s skill at the moment. Hearing these words, he raised his eyebrows and his mouth trembled with hatred as he roared, “Philip Clarke, you killed my great-grandson. I represent the law enforcement hall and am here to arrest you! You can either meekly give up and let me bring you back to the law enforcement hall, or I’ll break all your limbs before bringing you back!” Overbearing! This was Desmond’s confidence! As the third elder of the law enforcement hall, he had a distinguished status! If Philip dared to defy him today, Desmond would dare to take his life right here! Hehe. Philip sneered and said, “Gerry Clarke asked for it, and your law enforcement ha
Swoosh! Sounds of objects flying through the air! At Philip’s command, hundreds of spears were launched like dazzling meteors, carrying the momentum of lightning! In the eyes of the law enforcement hall guards, the sky was full of purple meteors that shone with a golden glow. They broke through the distance of a few hundred meters and arrived in the blink of an eye! Puff, thud! The spears pierced through the chests and abdomens of different figures! In a flash, seven or eight rows of guards in front of Desmond fell in a pool of blood! Desmond’s eyes flowed with panic as he looked at the few guards left standing on his side! Flustered! Completely flabbergasted! This was just the first face-off! Philip’s Griffin Army had taken down most of his personal guards! This was something Desmond totally did not expect! The combat effectiveness of the Griffin Army had completely surpassed Desmond’s perception! Scary! Absolutely terrifying! Philip had been away from
Smack! Philip continued to slap Desmond. Following that, after a dozen slaps in a row, Desmond’s face was swollen. Half the teeth in his mouth were also knocked out, and blood gushed from his nose and mouth! Desmond staggered, feeling the world spinning around him. His ears were buzzing. Philip flexed his hand and said, “You people from the branch family are always threatening me with the family rules, but your actions have already violated the family rules! Today, I’ll stand here and tell you that I’ll get rid of the branch family sooner or later! I’ll also replace the law enforcement hall!” Clap, clap, clap! Suddenly, sounds of applause came from a distance. It was followed by a fierce and rough bellow. “Very well, the child of the main family is very bold, indeed! How dare you spout such a brazen joke? It seems that I’ve arrived at the right time!” With those words, Philip frowned and looked sideways at the other end. It was a burly middle-aged man with a hooked no
As soon as Wade finished speaking, Philip chuckled. He looked sideways, stared at Wade coldly, and asked, “You want me to kneel in the branch family’s memorial hall and plead guilty? And you want me to voluntarily step down as heir of the main family?” “Yes!” Wade stood with his hands behind his back with the aura and demeanor of an elder! His pair of gloomy eyes were full of mocking sneers at this moment. How dare this little young master of the main cause such a big fuss on the day he returned? The news had even spread throughout the Clarke family and caused some damage to the branch family’s reputation. This was unacceptable! If the branch family wanted to take the top spot in the Clarke family, they could not tolerate having a bad reputation! Today, Wade must get this boy in front of him to go to the branch family’s memorial hall to kneel and confess his sins. Then, they had to make it known to the entire Clarke family! Seeing Philip motionless, a chill flashed in
Katie was not a talkative person, so everyone who knew her did not expect her to exude much presence. Tom smiled and approached Katie to talk to her. “Hey, it’s been a while. Did you miss me?” Tom said excitedly. He felt emotional at the thought of Katie saving him. The chief looked at Tom unhappily, surprised that he was involved with a human woman. It was such a mess that he wondered what was going on. Katie lowered her head and responded shyly. Tom noticed that Katie had become very powerful. She was no longer an ordinary human. From Katie's walking posture and various indications, Katie was a powerful practitioner. She was even better than him. Moreover, she had a divine body. Tom looked expectant. Although Tom had a divine body too, he could not improve so quickly with his talent and strength. Philip must have groomed Katie with care for her to improve so quickly. Katie’s talent was obvious at a glance. She was not that good, but she was already on par with h
Rodney was about to have a mental breakdown. Elf water was so valuable that everyone would use it sparingly for fear of accidentally wasting it, but these people used it as bath water. “It’s none of your business, but we do have some leftover bath water over there. Although its effect has diminished, we can use it to water the flowers to make them grow well.” Elf water would lose most of its effects after bathing in it, but the powerful energy still existed, so using it to water flowers was a good choice. Normal people would never think of using it to water flowers. Rodney was almost going crazy. Although Akash felt that it was a waste too, Philip had bought the elf water at a high price, so he had the freedom to do whatever he wanted with it. “This is ridiculous. We’re talking about precious elf water. How could you waste it like this?” Rodney was shaking in anger. He wished he could kill Philip and show this wasteful person how powerful he was. “Tell your elves not to c
“Do you think no one heard when you threatened me just now? Humans are not as stupid as demons.” Loony flicked Rodney’s forehead, causing Rodney to grimace in pain. “Why did you sneak in to be around me? I don’t think I have anything that attracts demons,” Philip said curiously. Indeed, he wondered what brought the demons here. Hearing that, Rodney struggled hard, but Philip easily controlled him. Philip only tied his hands, but Rodney had already lost all ability to fight. His energy core had been sealed. No matter how hard he tried to break free and attack Philip, he failed to do it. “Don't try to break the barrier I put on you or you’ll self-combust and die.” Philip was amused by Rodney’s futile attempts to break free. “You!” Rodney knew that he was in trouble this time. He never thought that Philip would be so strong. He had been very confident that he could sneak his people into Philip’s team if Akash did not return in time and Philip would end up under his control.
Philip and the others knew what was going on, but they pretended to be surprised. The merfolk were really confused and wondered what was going on. Everyone looked at Akash standing at the door and then at 'Akash' standing not far away, baffled. “What’s going on? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?” “I see two Akash in front of me. What does it mean? Is one Akash fake?” They caught a strong scent of demons on the real Akash. It was planned in advance. Rodney deliberately left a strong scent of demons on the real Akash so that no one could tell what was going on. Everyone was doubtful and subconsciously thought that the Akash at the door was fake. Marina ran to Philip's side in confusion. “Philip, what’s going on? Is there a real and fake Akash? This is weird.” Marina did not know Akash, but she knew Philip brought Akash along, so Philip should know what was going on. “You two should know who is real and who is fake,” Philip said with a smile without answering Marina's
The fish creatures had struck a deal with the demons, so the fish creatures handed the pearl over immediately when they got hold of it. Rodney even had the chance to study it. His explanation did not attract much attention because many people knew about the water troops. Philip and the others did not know simply because they were humans. “Apart from the pearl, they need another item to unleash its full potential or the pearl's effect will be halved. The other item is my blood.” No one had used the pearl before, so they had never unleashed its full potential. Once every century, they needed the blood of the holy maiden to activate the pearl, but the fish creatures did not know this. “They think that they can command the water troops of the world by taking the pearl, but they only took an ordinary pearl. Without my blood to activate it, they can never command the world.” Rodney scowled upon hearing that, shocked by the news. He was glad that he stayed and heard the story. P
“What’s inside the coffin?” “Who knows? I heard someone calling for help inside. Why don't we open it and take a look?” The fawns were not yet fully grown, so they were simple-minded. Hearing someone calling for help, they wanted to lend a helping hand. They had taken on human form, so they could move easily. The coffin was sealed to prevent someone from opening it from the inside, but the effect was almost non-existent once someone opened the coffin from the outside. The fawns broke the seal, and Akash jumped out. He looked around in a panic and was surprised to see that his rescuers were a bunch of fawns. “Thank you. I’m a member of the elf family. You may come to us if you need any help in the future. I’ll do my best to help you.” After saying this, Akash vanished in front of the fawns. He had very important things to attend to. The little fawns never expected that they would rescue such a beautiful elf. They were puzzled and wondered what was going on. “Was that the
Everyone returned to the topic at hand and forgot about everything else. Akash was expectant, waiting to hear what everyone had to say. “According to our investigation, the fish creatures became so arrogant because they colluded with the demons. They wouldn’t have been strong enough to deal with us if the demons hadn’t given them the power to do so.” Philip was surprised to hear about the demons’ involvement again. It was simply ridiculous that everything was related to demons. “The demons are quite ambitious. It seems that they want to conquer this land like the humans before them, so they keep making trouble. I think we should get rid of them!” The chief was very angry. He hated the demons from the bottom of his heart and wished they would disappear. Akash’s expression changed. Although he had an opinion about the other party's words, he did not dare to express his thoughts due to his current identity. “Akash, tell me what you think about this matter. I believe that the
“I’m surprised that they’d attack me first. I thought they’d be more interested in Philip.” Loony looked at Akash thoughtfully. He knew that Akash was behind this. Akash returned his gaze silently, acting as if it had nothing to do with him. He would never admit his identity. “Ugh, that thing is so ugly.” Marina covered her mouth in a panic. Although they had a high tolerance level, these toad-like monsters were simply gross. Marina's father wanted to take this opportunity to see Philip's strength, but Philip did not take action. Loony dealt with the other party, and they found out that Loony was human. “I remember hearing a legend about a lunatic. Are you the lunatic mentioned?” Marina was puzzled by Loony’s identity. Everything Loony did proved that he was human, but none of them could do any of it. “It's said that only humans and demons can practice voodoo, which is what I think you did just now. Philip can’t possibly be involved with the demons, so if I’m not mi
Philip shrugged and said calmly, “As usual, we take one step at a time. If they use force, we’ll do the same. Don’t worry about it. Even though they're strong, it’s not as if we can’t do anything about it.” Marina's heart skipped a beat at the sight of Philip's confidence, her feelings indescribable. Marina's father was heartbroken at this scene. He wished he could slap his daughter to wake her up. “Hmph, there's no point in saying empty words. Anyone can take one step at a time. When the enemy shows up at the door, that’s the only thing we can do.” Everyone noticed the sarcasm behind the words, and Marina was shocked. She did not expect that her father would be so unreasonable as to pick a fight at this time. Before anyone could say anything else, the door was kicked open, and Philip was surprised to see the person who entered the door. Philip did not set up a barrier in this place, so anyone could enter and exit freely. Everyone was on guard against the newcomer because
