Fighting was a physically demanding exercise. Although one often did not feel tired in a state of tension, that was only the mental state. Often, many people would suddenly break down while fighting, simply because their physical strength could not keep up. When their physical energy was severely depleted, even if the spirit was excited, the body would say no. At this moment, Philip was in a state of unrestrained energy consumption, so Old Cain’s subordinates judged that Philip’s physical strength would not last long. A true expert would control their pace and save their physical strength to the greatest extent to prolong the fight. Old Cain naturally understood the subordinates’ meaning, but looking at Philip getting more vigorous the longer he fought, he could not help but feel that perhaps this guy in front of him was not normal. It was all because of the look in Philip’s eyes just now. That gaze made an indescribable feeling well in his heart. “It’s better to be safe th
“Why not?” Philip said nonchalantly. The thugs had all been incapacitated, and the only opponents left were Old Cain and his two subordinates. Although the auras exuded from those three were not weak, Philip did not take them seriously at all. If it really came down to a fight, Philip was sure that they would not last more than a second. The only thing he needed to watch out for was to ensure that his supernatural ability was not exposed in this situation. The two subordinates behind Old Cain had already taken two steps forward and were standing in front of him, forming a triangle. This was the starting position of the Triangle Formation that Old Cain and his two subordinates had practiced for a long time since they started training in the Nonagon. After honing their skills for so long, the cooperation between the three could be said to have reached a perfect state. However, they had never used the Triangle Formation in actual combat. It was not that they did not want to
Crack! The sound of broken bones was heard. Feeling the sharp pain in his chest, Old Cain felt that several of his ribs must have been broken by Philip. The attacks from Old Cain’s two subordinates completely fell short. As Philip pinned Old Cain against the wall and bludgeoned him, the two guy’s eyelids twitched wildly. Was this guy still an ordinary person? Old Cain’s martial art was not practiced in vain. His body was as solid as a man of steel, but he still spat out mouthfuls of blood upon getting beaten up by Philip against the wall. Chills gushed from the soles of their feet straight to their brains. Old Cain’s two subordinates looked at each other and hesitated for a while before deciding to save Old Cain. However, Old Cain had been beaten to a pulp by Philip at this moment and was placed on a chair casually by Philip. “Sit down and watch as I take care of them nice and tidy,” Philip said with a smile. Old Cain’s mouth kept gushing with blood. There was an expre
After getting Wynn settled, Philip returned to the conference room and stood in front of Old Cain, whose head drooped to his chest. Old Cain no longer had the same imposing appearance as before. He looked like he was going to die at any moment. Philip grabbed Old Cain's hair and yanked his head up. Old Cain opened his eyelids weakly and looked up at Philip, his heart filled with endless regret. “Talk.” The simple word that came out of Philip's mouth seemed to carry endless pressure. Old Cain’s mind was quite clear at this time. He knew that if he continued to be obstinate, he would probably meet his doom at any minute. “I-It’s Mr. Juan Parker. He asked us to kidnap the two of you and send you to Dragon Club. The price for the job is ten million.” “Juan Parker!” A murderous intent flashed in Philip’s eyes. Philip thought that Juan would not mess with him again and no longer had the intention of killing him. However, Juan’s actions now gave Philip the idea of getting
“Who do you think you are?! You're just a son-in-law of my Johnston family! Philip, don't think that just because you have some status and power, you can ignore us! Let me tell you, I'm not someone you can easily mess with! I admit that in the past, we couldn't fight you! But now, I have a big boss behind me! I’m afraid someone like you isn’t good enough anymore!” Martin roared and vented all his pent-up anger. Refreshing! After roaring out all the grievances he had suffered due to Philip in the past, Martin felt refreshed. Philip laughed lightly. “What? With a big boss supporting you from behind, you aren’t afraid of me anymore? Martin Johnston, I didn't expect you to become arrogant after not seeing you for a month.” Looking at Philip, Liam could not help his anger and roared. “You're still pretending! We've all figured out your identity! You’re just a bankrupt young master from the Clarke family. You invested in Buffer abroad and made some money by investing in stocks. Wha
Wynn watched Martin and the others leave. She took Philip’s hand, looked at him worriedly, and asked, “Do you know who did it? Can you handle it?” “I do, and I will.” Philip said lightly, “There’s nothing that can't be handled. Don't forget your husband's identity.” “Then you must be careful. The company has already become like this. I have to take care of the aftermath and at least get the company back to its normal operation.” Wynn was still concerned about the company's business. If Wynn washed her hands off this matter at this time, the entire company would have to shut down all operations. It would cause huge damage to the company's business. Wynn had put a lot of effort into bringing the company from the brink of bankruptcy to where it was today. Naturally, she did not want her efforts to go down the drain. Philip nodded lightly. “I’ll be going, then. Take your time in cleaning up the company. There’s no rush.” “Okay, I know. I’ll wait for you to come back.” Wynn
“Stop! First Dragon Club has been reserved by VIPs today. Outsiders are not allowed to enter.” “What if I insist on going in?” Philip asked blandly. The two rows of security guards burst into laughter. Everyone knew that Philip was here to look for trouble, but it was ridiculous that Philip alone dared to ignore the existence of a dozen security guards. “Are you deaf or stupid? Don’t you understand what I just said?” The security guard who walked toward Philip smiled disdainfully and waved the rubber baton in his hand, trying to drive Philip away. Philip sneered, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the security guard's hand that was holding the rubber baton. Philip twisted his hand with force and broke the security guard's wrist. “Argh!” The security guard squealed like a pig and immediately stepped back when Philip let go of him. Seeing something amiss, the rest of the security guards stepped forward to surround Philip. “Damn it, how dare you cause trouble at First D
Following Juan’s order, numerous bodyguards poured out from the four private rooms next to Juan’s room. As Juan was wary of Old Cain, he prepared many bodyguards in advance to guard against Old Cain. However, before Old Cain arrived, Philip showed up at the door first—just in time for these bodyguards to take care of Philip. Seeing the hordes of bodyguards swarming out of the rooms on the surveillance screen, Juan smirked. “Whoever comes today has to bow down, be it a dragon or a tiger. I just wonder what the hell Old Cain is up to, allowing Philip to get here.” Juan muttered and felt that he must find out the situation on Old Cain’s side. Taking the phone and looking up the address book, Juan found Old Cain's phone number. He dialed it. “Hello, who are you looking for?” An unfamiliar voice came from the phone. Juan's eyebrows twitched, and he felt vaguely uneasy. “I’m looking for Old Cain. Who are you?” “I’m from the Supernatural Bureau. Old Cain has been detained
“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
