Many juniors from the branch family started to kick up a fuss again. More unpleasant words could be heard once more. Several juniors among them cursed Wynn and Mila the most fiercely, “Hmph, an outcast of the Clarke family brought home a sl*t and two wild dogs!” “If it were me, I’d have thrown myself into the sea long ago! What a disgrace to our Clarke family!” “I heard that Wynn Johnston’s background is quite complicated. She seems to be a descendant of the sinned blood?” A descendant of the sinned blood? For a while, people from the branch and main families who did not know Wynn’s background showed puzzled and grave expressions. Of course, this was arranged by Wade in advance as he bided his time and released a small signal first. “What is a descendant of the sinned blood?” someone started asking. A person stood in the branch family said with a sneer, “Being a descendant of the sinned blood is something atrocious. Let's put it this way, Wynn Johnston is the Clarke fam
The two slaps from Philip were very imposing, and the old man was stunned for a long time without reacting. Upon seeing Philip’s tall and upright figure, especially the faint coldness flowing from his body, many members of the branch family shrank back and dared not say anything for a while. As for the old man who was slapped twice, his eyes were red at this moment. His cheeks quickly grew swollen and were burning hot with pain! With round eyes, he glared at Philip, raised his hand, and scolded, “You arrogant brat, how dare you act so boldly in the ancestral memorial hall? I’m the old master of the branch family, your elder! You have no respect for the Clarke family rules at all! Men, come here and take this arrogant brat down! I’ll bring him in front of the ancestors’ memorial plaques and make him kneel and apologize to me!” Thud! In an instant, four of the branch family’s guards from the surrounding area came over with guns. Philip stood in place, his icy gaze sweeping ov
Suddenly, a sharp and angry shout resounded like tolling bells. “Presumptuous! Does the branch family have any respect for me, Tim Clarke, at all? How dare you point guns at my nephew here? Do you want to die?” Tim stood with his hands behind his back at the front of the family. Without turning around, his eyes were gazing straight ahead at the flower stands and flower wreaths in front. As soon as he finished speaking, the people of the main family behind him made a path for him. Then, Tim turned around while dressed in a black suit. He had his hands behind his back and walked steadily toward Wade and the others with chills all over his body. He swept his gaze over the guards of the branch family who raised their guns and said, “Put your guns down or be killed!” Seeing Tim’s appearance, the guards of the branch family looked at each other but still waited for Wade’s order. Wade chuckled, turned to Tim, and said, “Tim, they’re the guards of our branch family. Now that I'm
Tim snorted and said, “Why, is the branch family so impatient in drawing a clear line with the main family?” Wade stood up straight at this moment and gnashed his teeth, his eyes full of anger as he glared at Tim. He said, “Tim, stop playing word games. Attacking me is the same as disrespecting the branch family! In that case, why should I care about the main family? The branch family’s guards, listen to my command!” Following Wade’s roar, the dozens of guards from the branch family in the surrounding area drew their guns and pulled the safety. Their muzzles were pointed at the main family in unison. When the branch family’s guards made a move, the guards of the main family also drew their guns and aimed their muzzles at the people of the branch family without Tim's order. The atmosphere on the scene was on the verge of breaking out! Like walking on a tightrope, the slightest mistake would cause a chain reaction. Tim smiled faintly and glanced at the confrontation. He turne
He was simply going too far. He did not hold any regard for the old masters of the branch family at all. “What were you looking at just now?” Philip asked with a chill in his eyes. Hansel was taken aback before saying angrily, “What has that got to do with you?” Smack! Unexpectedly, Philip simply raised his hand and slapped Hansel across the face. Many people were shocked at this scene. Philip slapped another person just like that? Hansel was also stunned. What the hell was going on here? He had just taken one look. Was it really necessary to slap him in front of so many people? He was furious! Hansel roared angrily, “Philip boy, what the hell are you doing? How dare you hit me? I'm the sixth old master of the branch family, your sixth granduncle!” Smack! Philip slapped him again, looked at Hansel coldly, and said, “So what? The way you just looked at my wife and children was full of hostility. I’m warning you, if you dare to look at them like that again, your
Philip Clarke was too cocky for words. He actually dared to let his guard cut Hansel’s hand tendon! At the same time, Philip walked up to Hansel and coldly looked down at the man who was squatting on the floor and wailing his guts out. Philip raised his foot and stomped on Hansel’s cast on his right arm! Bam! The cast shattered! Crack! Hansel’s right arm broke again. A blood-curdling scream resounded once more! “Ah! Philip boy, you’re going to die a miserable death! Mark my words!” Hansel fell to the ground in a state of frenzy. One hand was full of blood while the other was broken again. He lay on the ground, tossing and turning. Several of the branch family’s guards saw this and rushed over to take Hansel away. However, the elite guards of the main family behind Philip stopped them. All of them were either standing or crouching with their guns aimed at the guards of the branch family who wanted to rush over! The two parties were in a confrontation once more.
Thud, thud! Instantly, the main family’s guards on both sides stood with their guns raised and aimed at the people of the branch family. This action terrified the members of the branch family, and all of them fell silent. They looked in horror at the main family’s guards who stood with guns. That was because the killing intent pouring out of this group of people was too strong! Seeing this, Wade frowned and looked at Tim who had his back turned to him. After a long while, he said, “I just said that in a fit of anger, but Philip is too bold and arrogant. Aren’t you going to discipline him?” Tim was silent for a moment before he turned around, looked at Philip, and said, “Phil, that’s enough. This is a place for ancestral commemoration, after all. Peace and harmony should take precedence.” Philip nodded and withdrew his gaze. He turned around and walked to Wynn, who held Mila in her arms. He said with a smile, “It’s fine, I’m here.” Wynn nodded, but she was actually a littl
The solemn bell rang throughout Clarke Manor. All members of the Clarke family, who were either dressed in black suits or long black dresses, knelt on the ground and bowed in respect as they made their way to the memorial hall. At this moment, time slowed down infinitely. Looking down from a high altitude, rows of people could be seen standing up and kneeling down. This scene lasted for more than ten minutes before everyone arrived at the main entrance of the memorial hall. This place was full of gilt black tiles and yellow walls. It was very majestic. From a distance, it looked like a palace—very profound and solemn. Three rows of people stood at the entrance of the memorial hall at this moment. They were all the elders of the law enforcement hall. At the forefront, an old figure stood with his hands behind his back. It was the oldest living person of the Clarke family, the grand elder of the law enforcement hall! He stood there dressed in plain clothes, while th
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“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
