At Celestial Club! Why would Wynn go to such a place? Wasn’t she meeting a client? Philip did not have time to think. He dashed out of the gallery, his heart flaring up like a ball of flame. Please be safe. Please be! Jasmine did not know what was going on but saw Philip running away in a hurry. Where was this guy hurrying off to? Upon exiting Civil Gallery, Philip was about to hail a cab when a flashy red Porsche 911 stopped in front of him. Anna appeared in a black trench coat. “Mr. Clarke, where are you rushing off to?” Anna looked sideways, about to get out of the car when Philip pulled open the passenger seat and ordered in a hurry. “To Celestial Club!” Anna did not ask more. She quickly started up the Porsche, like a red arrow being shot, the dust flew up into the air as the vehicle disappeared from Civil Gallery’s entrance. This scene was coincidentally seen by Aiden, who was looking from the door. With hate in his eyes, he stared at the disappearing headlights, conf
“Sister Anna, why are you here?” The bouncer who had been arrogant earlier was now meek as a child. They were working for Celestial Club, so these men had been used to flaunting their authority. But meeting Anna still made them feel uneasy because if they were not careful enough, they might end up offending Theo. “Hmph!” Anna snorted. After a few more words of reproach, she did not waste any more time with them. She could see the restlessness in Philip’s eyes, so she quickly let Philip inside after forcing the two men to back down. The bouncers scratched their heads in fear and confusion as they watched Philip and Anna go in. “Hey, who do you think that guy is that Sister Anna would personally escort and protect?” “Don’t be so nosy, unless you feel like separating your head from your body.” The interior design of Celestial Club was indeed luxurious. Gold was the primary color of the interior with dragons and phoenix as the central theme. The place looked extravagant. Even the
Philip’s expression was cold, his tone chilling. With his stern appearance, his body was exuding a strong murderous intent! Jade was stunned. She backed away a few steps by instinct. This… this brat had a more powerful aura than Brother Drogo! And it was not just a little bit. It was so heavy that she found it hard to breathe. Just who exactly was he? Quickly steadying herself, Jade’s eyes turned cold as a smirk appeared on her face. “Sister Anna, this brat of yours is just arrogant on a whole new level. Doesn’t he know that this is Brother Drogo’s turf?” Anna smiled instead. Drogo Hank? So what? Mr. Clarke can lay this Celestial Club to waste with just one sentence. Even if Drogo were here today, once he knows of Philip’s identity, he would have to prostrate and ask for Mr. Clarke’s forgiveness. “Jade Quinley, I’m warning you, if you don’t want to get yourself in any trouble, lead the way now! Or else, even Jesus can’t save you!” Anna, too, was running out of patience because
Philip lifted his leg and kicked hard at the door! Bam! The door was burst open. Jade was stunned. She never expected the boy toy to be this barbaric and immoral. She would definitely get Brother Drogo to take care of him later! The loud music inside the room muted the sound of the door being kicked open. The colorful shining lights made it hard to see what was going on inside. There was a crowd of men and women, naked as they drank, played games, and fooled around. Tap! Philip pushed the switch on the wall, and all of a sudden, the whole room was brightly lit, exposing various hideous activities. The occupants of the room shrieked as they picked up their clothes from the floor in a flurry. Philip was dumbstruck by this scene. He quickly swept a glance around the room in search of Wynn’s presence. Where is Wynn? Where is she?! Just then, a hostile voice rang from within the room. “Anna Carter, this isn’t Theo Zander’s turf. A b*tch like you causing a ruckus here with your b
Theo Zander! King of the underground! A dominating figure who was famous within the city. Drogo, who had been full of himself earlier, was now rooted to his spot with a dark expression, feeling intimidated as he watched Theo come in. “Brother Theo, why did you bring so many people into my establishment?” Drogo’s complexion looked terrible. He quietly gritted his teeth as he felt irked. Could he go against Theo? The answer was obviously a ‘no’. However, Theo completely ignored Drogo, never giving the latter so much as a glance. This made Drogo flare up in anger. I’m still one of the top five most powerful men in the underground world of Riverdale! This man is just too disrespectful! What happened next was a scene that shocked every person in the room! Even if Anna was already aware of Philip’s identity, she could not help but feel waves of shock as she saw it with her own eyes. Theo had strode over to Philip, took down his gentlemen’s hat, and then bowed to him, showing great
Noticing the troubled look on his face, Philip frowned slightly and asked, “Will this be difficult for you?” Theo walked over to Philip and whispered into his ear, “Mr. Clarke, I don’t think we can lay a hand on Jeffrey Scott.” They genuinely could not. The main reason was that Jeffrey’s uncle, Henry Turner, was an internationally famous medical magnate and was even nicknamed as ‘the Healing Hand of God’ within the country. The patients that Professor Turner had cured with his hands were the most prominent figures worldwide. Just a few words from these figures were enough to shake up the economy in a location of their preference! Among them included a few individuals who held high authority in foreign politics within their country! For example, the governor of Riverfront Province was also one of Professor Turner’s patients. He was a powerful man that no one dared to provoke. Needless to say, everyone had great respect for this magnate of the medical industry. Whoever provoked thi
Henry had just come out of the airport with a medical team formed by a group of stern and meticulous doctors as they followed behind him. If this scene was noticed by someone who knew the industry, they would definitely be shocked! The infamous medical team from Turner’s Hospital! They were not number one, but the only one! “Henry Turner?” Philip let out a cold laugh as his gaze fell on Jeffrey. “You should ask your nephew if he would let me meet you.” Nephew? Could it be Jeffrey? Henry seemed to have realized in an instant and quickly answered respectfully, “Mr. Clarke, there must be some sort of misunderstanding going on. Please pass the phone to Jeffrey, I’ll talk to him.” Philip mildly raised an eyebrow but tossed the phone to Jeffrey who was sitting on the sofa. “Your uncle’s looking for you.” Uncle? Jeffrey burst into anger and slammed a hand onto the table. “Bullsh*t! Why would my uncle call you?” As Jeffrey bellowed, suddenly a furious reproach sounded from the phon
His whole body was trembling as his gaze darted around. Upon seeing Philip, he crawled over on his knees and prostrated as he begged, “Ph… Philip, Brother Philip! Seeing as I’m a colleague of Deputy Manager Johnston, please forgive me this time. I won’t ever do it again.” Philip’s eyes were cold with underlying fury. “I do not wish to see him in Riverdale City ever again.” “Yes, Mr. Clarke!” Theo was a man of the underground world, so he could easily understand the meaning behind Philip’s words. With just an eye signal, two men grabbed Gavin who was wailing and howling for forgiveness and dragged him to another room. Gavin was so frightened that he wet and soiled himself on the spot, leaving a foul smell in his wake. “It’s your turn, Jeffrey Scott,” said Philip. Jeffrey hung his head and forced a smile. “Mr. Clarke, since my uncle is Henry Turner and you’re acquainted with him, let’s not create any bad blood. Let me go this time and I will never again step foot into Riverda
“You seem stronger than Killer Bee. You might've stood a chance of winning if you had gone against him,” Philip taunted. Philip raised his head and took the punch without breaking a sweat. “If you want to steal from me, I'm sorry to tell you that you found the wrong target. If you just want to make friends with me, I’m more than happy to accept.” Philip grabbed the guy’s fist and threw him out with disdain, not taking him seriously at all. The guy did not expect that he would be tossed aside like a piece of trash and started panicking. Before he passed out, he only remembered that Philip easily dealt with him without breaking a sweat. He did not know what happened later, but he knew that Philip was so strong that he could kill him in a split second. If he could turn back time, he would never go after Philip again. Other people were shocked to see Philip’s strength. “He tossed the guy out so easily. This is terrifying. How did he do it?” “That’s impossible. That guy is p
Philip walked on the road leisurely, feeling honored to have so many people stalking him. “I’m surprised that I could attract so many people.” Philip sighed in amazement as he walked. Soon, he came across several good large inns and made his choice after some selection. He was not short of money, so he did not waste time on this. “I’m going to fully reserve this inn for the time being. I don't want to see other people on my territory, so your job is to keep irrelevant people out.” Philip negotiated with the innkeeper and received the other party's consent. After all, Philip’s offer was too good to refuse. They quickly reached an agreement, and Philip obtained the right to use the inn at a good price. At this time, a bunch of people surrounded Philip with disdain. “You’re quite bold to come out alone.” “It’s very interesting to see someone walking around with so many treasures on hand.” Everyone mocked with disdainful smiles on their faces. Philip shook his head helple
Very soon, someone sent Philip his rewards. The onlookers were surprised to see Philip receiving so many precious treasures. Some were happy while others were sad. Some envied Philip's treasures while others hankered after them. After all, not everyone could receive such rewards. Only practitioners who performed well had the opportunity to get these rewards that belonged to the advanced list. Although they could not do anything to Philip for the time being, Philip would leave Deadly Arena eventually. As long as they did not take action in Deadly Arena, no one would care what happened to Philip after that. “You can stay if you want to keep fighting. I’ll take a look around and find a place for us to stay,” Philip said to his people. These little guys had not shown off their strength yet, so they were sure to stay. Sure enough, everyone nodded. It was time for them to take the spotlight. Aslan and the others chose to stay. No one would miss the opportunity to show off. Philip
Some people saw Philip's actions before he confounded everyone, so they were terrified. “What's going on? Has that guy gone crazy? I just saw him standing there motionless, waiting for Killer Bee to attack him.” “I would've moved ages ago. Killer Bee is very powerful. He was clearly lurking around, waiting for the chance to attack Philip, but Philip didn’t even try to dodge. Is he really that confident in his strength?” “It’s over. I bet tens of thousands of energy stones on Philip. Everything will go down the drain if he loses the match.” Everyone sighed, hoping Philip would not let them down. However, more people thought that Philip would definitely die this time. At his level, it was simply impossible for him to face Killer Bee's strongest sneak attack. The old men looked at Philip's action with excitement and anticipation, hoping that Philip would be killed immediately. “It’d be great if he died. We can recoup all our losses in one fell swoop.” “It’s good if we can
Killer Bee had never thought that Philip could compete with him. He scowled. “Since you want to die, I’ll grant your wish!” Killer Bee was furious to see Philip’s strength. In his opinion, Philip was nothing more than a rookie and had no right to enter the advanced list. Why was he so strong? He thought it was unfair and wanted to kill Philip. “You’ll die now!” Killer Bee was very unhappy. Philip was very arrogant and was just wasting his time. The sword in his hand turned into a spike and Killer Bee jumped into the sky. He sped up and vanished into thin air. Everyone was shocked. No one could see Killer Bee and wondered what was going on. Philip caught his trace and simply stood there, motionless. “Hehe, is this little trick all you have? You think too much.” Philip shook his head helplessly. This guy was really stupid. “You’re very bold to look down on me like this. Do you really think you’re so powerful and undefeatable?” Killer Bee roared in anger, his voice ech
Even people near the top of the list dared not mess with Killer Bee for no reason. The technique he practiced could kill with one move. He also had a method that could harm both himself and his opponent. Only someone like him would practice such a detrimental move. No one would fight to die, but Killer Bee simply wanted to kill. Such an opponent was very problematic, and Killer Bee was notorious for killing many people. Almost everyone believed that Philip would lose this match and might even lose his life. Philip overheard the conversations around him and was surprised to hear the other party’s identity. However, he had nothing to fear. Instead, he felt very excited and even looked forward to it. He was not only taking part in the match just to make a name for himself. He wanted to encounter various opponents and gauge their strength too. Coming to Deadly Arena meant that he was not afraid of risking his life, and he could learn many things he had never encountered before.
This person gave Philip a bad feeling. He was obviously no longer on the rookie list. Philip easily defeated the three rookies earlier, so the quality of his upcoming opponents would increase rapidly. Philip felt that the guy standing quietly in front of him could completely conceal his presence and mask his existence. Moreover, the other party looked ordinary. Even if Philip carefully observed his appearance, it was difficult to remember what he looked like. He also exuded an affectionate vibe as if he were a close friend, which was hard to describe. Something had to be wrong. Philip stood on guard. The friendlier the person, the more terrifying he was behind the scenes. “This guy is more than meets the eye. He must be very strong.” Philip sighed uneasily, wondering what was wrong with that guy. Someone like that had to be terrifying. Philip was not a careless guy. He would pay attention to this. “I’m surprised to see an opponent like you.” The young man was surpri
The old men were about to go crazy. They looked at Philip in disbelief and felt that Philip was not normal. Philip sighed inwardly. He thought highly of Dodo and wanted to recruit him. The people who bet their money on Philip were shocked. They were so lucky to have won the bet by fluke. Those who bet their money on Dodo were horrified. No one could believe that the undefeatable Dodo would lose so badly. The winners jumped with joy and excitement. They wished they could hug Philip and give him a big kiss. “This is wonderful. I won a lot of money this time. That guy is really amazing, much better than I thought.” “I recouped all my losses this time. I can’t believe it.” Everyone said cheerfully, paying no heed to the losers at all. “I knew we should believe in Philip. He’s stronger than I thought.” “I think he should be first on the rookie list. Although he has only fought three matches so far, the level of the fights is simply out of this world. He defeated his oppone
Dodo planned to unleash more dragons to surround Philip, but Philip froze the whole platform instead. He would have been seriously hurt if he had not backed away in time. “These dragons of yours are nothing but several worms to me. Since we have the chance to meet today, let me show you what a real ice dragon looks like.” After saying that, a huge dragon appeared between Philip and Dodo. The dragon summoned by Philip was better than Dodo’s dragon in terms of both appearance and size. Dodo saw this scene and quickly unleashed his dragon to meet Philip’s attack. The dragon under Philip’s command became more excited instead of fearful. It roared and swallowed Dodo’s dragon in one gulp, greatly improving its strength in the process. Dodo was dumbfounded by this scene. He never dreamed that Philip could summon a hundred-meter-long ice dragon at will, and the dragon was so powerful too. 'How is this possible? How could he summon such a giant dragon?' Dodo stared at Philip in disb
