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
Philip nodded faintly, looking indifferent as he stood up and asked, “Professor Henry, do you have any opinion on this?” Henry glanced at Jeffrey, screaming on the floor, and then replied, “He asked for it. To have Mr. Clarke punish him for his wrongdoing is his honor.” His nephew had just been crippled, but the man said it was an honor instead. Theo inhaled a breath of cold air. He already knew that Mr. Clarke was not a regular man, but he never anticipated him to be this powerful! Henry Turner was the magnate of the medical world, the Healing Hand of God! He had cured so many prominent figures. The man was a living, breathing network! With just a few words from Henry, Theo could easily fall to the lowest level in society. At that moment, Jeffrey was still on the ground, staring at his uncle as he mumbled, “Uncle… avenge me…” Henry looked furious. Although he did not know exactly what his nephew did wrong, it must have been serious! “Director Stanley, take Jeffrey away and d
Philip got into the Audi and continued discussing Mila’s condition with Henry. Henry had already researched Mila’s condition for half a month now, and the success rate he could come up with was 80%! That meant a very high chance of complete recovery! They went to the hospital to take a look at Wynn. She was now safe but still unconscious due to the shock. Just after Philip left the hospital entrance with Henry, Keagan, and Theo in tow, he received a call from his father-in-law. Charles was furious as he bellowed, “Philip! Where did you run off to? Where’s the painting I told you to deliver?” Slap! Philip smacked his forehead then remembered that he had left the house this morning to deliver a painting to Civil Gallery. How could he have forgotten it? Without another thought, Philip quickly said, “Send me to Southville Street.” Theo immediately went up to open the door of his Benz, inviting Philip in. Henry and Keagan, too, wanted to invite Philip into their own cars, but they
At this time, Philip noticed something on the ground. He walked over and picked it up curiously. “Philip, that thing fell from the old octopus just now. I wonder what it is. Maybe it’s a rare treasure!” Rabbit popped out and looked at Philip excitedly, attracted by this shiny object. “Isn’t that the core of a monster beast? Wow, this octopus was so powerful that it could even produce a core! It’s a pity that it bumped into someone like me, who eats octopuses without leaving anything behind.” Philip collected the core that the octopus had developed for tens of thousands of years and grinned at the carcass that lay in his space. Only monster beasts that had practiced for tens of thousands of years could produce such a precious thing, so Philip hardly saw any. Philip had not killed any beasts with tens of thousands of years of practice, so he had only heard of it. “I’m surprised that this guy gave me such a precious thing. In that case, we must have a good meal to show our a
“Philip, I sense a weird presence. I think something is after us. Do you think it’s the octopus’ father?” Rabbit scowled, feeling they should leave at once. “Didn’t you explore the cave thoroughly just now? Did you find other monsters inside?” Philip frowned and explored with his senses. Although he was very strong and sensitive, he could not sense approaching danger like a monster beast. A normal monster beast could sense up to tens of thousands of yards but Philip could only sense thousands of yards at most. That was the ultimate difference between humans and monster beasts. Rabbit was worried. It did not consider this problem. “I was so busy looking for the way out just now that I overlooked this problem. Who would know that the octopus had a father?” Before Philip could retort, they felt the world spinning around them, and a huge tentacle hit Philip. Philip pressed Rabbit down and turned around to dodge as quickly as he could. He knew that a powerful being was here. “
“Haha, but I never planned to let you go either. In that case, don’t blame me for doing this!” The octopus' huge tentacle twitched as if it were going to teach Philip a lesson. Philip sneered at this scene. This little octopus was quite interesting. Although the octopus claimed that it would not harm Philip, Philip could read its thoughts from its eyes and actions. This octopus was more than met the eye. He would have died if he listened to its nonsense. “Hehe, I'm not hungry now. I’ll keep you and the rabbit as my food rations. Let’s see if you can escape my clutches!” The octopus swung its tentacles and sent all the surrounding gravel flying, creating chaos. “Philip, that thing is so full of itself. Let’s stop wasting time with it and leave at once. I've found the exit. It’s right in front of us!” Rabbit hopped up to Philip and pointed out the route it found. Philip let Rabbit go earlier so it could find the way out. Although Philip wanted to eat the octopus, he knew that
“I wanted to let you go, but I've changed my mind. Leave this rabbit behind as my supper and you can leave safely. Otherwise, you can never escape. Since you're here for the ruins, you won't leave empty-handed. Let’s make a deal.” The octopus seemed very confident that Philip would give Rabbit up. Rabbit glared daggers at the octopus, shocked that it wanted to eat it for no reason. “I know many secrets about this place. If you strike the deal with me, I can tell you some secrets so that you can go through the King’s Ruins smoothly.” The octopus seemed to read Philip’s thoughts and tried to convince him to agree to the deal.Seeing that, Philip pretended to be tempted. “Really? That's great. It’s a good deal to get so many secrets with just one rabbit.” Philip placed Rabbit on his palm and shook it in front of the octopus. “But you have to tell me the secrets first or I’m afraid you won’t keep to your promise. I’m definitely no match for you. I won't gain anything if you go
The tentacle’s target was the bird in front of Philip. “It’s really strange to see a bird in this place.” Philip grabbed the bird and threw it to the tentacle, which caught the bird without noticing Philip’s presence. Philip followed along, curious to see what the tentacle belonged to. The tentacle looked like it belonged to a squid, which seemed quite appetizing. However, Philip did not think the tentacle was an easy opponent to deal with. The other party was clearly a force to be reckoned with, but it was not very sensitive to its surroundings. Philip had been here for quite long, but the tentacle had not discovered his presence. It was clearly a creature with a poor reaction. He was very curious to find out what creature this tentacle belonged to. He followed the direction where the tentacle disappeared but saw no end to the path. His hard work finally paid off, though. Through his relentless tracking, Philip finally found the body of the tentacle but was surprised by
“Are you sure you want to go in?” Rabbit jerked awake from its daze and crawled out of Philip's arms. “In that case, you should choose someone who isn't afraid to die,” Rabbit said tauntingly as if it was ready to watch the fun. Yule was startled by Rabbit’s sudden appearance and nasty remark. Although Philip had not formally introduced Rabbit, he knew that Rabbit was Philip’s pet, a powerful creature that most people could not afford to offend. Although rich people would tend to mess around with similar monster pets, a creature like Rabbit that had developed intelligence and could speak to humans were few and far between. “With all sorts of dangers below, you can give it a try if you’re not afraid to die. Of course, I’d advise against it. After all, you’re very weak,” Rabbit scorned Yule while telling him the truth. It was very mean, indeed. Philip shook his head helplessly while Rabbit intimidated others. He was more determined to cook Rabbit now. “Based on the informatio
“Are these things good enough for you? You haven’t seen anything yet.” Yule was embarrassing. If his people dared to do this, Philip would explode. He would never allow his people to act this way. “Yeah, the pills and weapons we found along the way are simply amazing. I can’t imagine what we’ll find in the real treasure vault. I’m sure even you’ll be won over.” They did not encounter any dangers or difficult creatures along the way as if they had passed the test. However, they did not find any trace of the King’s Ruins either, which puzzled Philip. “Is the so-called King’s Ruins referring to these useless things?” Philip frowned and glanced around. If this was the so-called King’s Ruins, he would be very disappointed. Rabbit popped out and waved its paw at Philip, clearly trying to say something. “Philip, you’re too much. Do you really think these things are worthless? Maybe you don’t find them valuable, but they're seen as priceless treasures to others. Most people can’t e
“Yule's father is seriously injured, and his strength has reduced significantly. He’ll die if he can’t find an expert to cure him. Do you think Yule can act so arrogantly if his father dies? There’s no way he can do that anymore.” Mason’s words gave everyone the hope to replace Yule. Yule had used his identity to gain a lot of benefits in Deadly Arena. Although no one said anything, they longed to do the same too. “If you can do this for me, I promise you the same treatment. You'll enjoy no less than what Yule has.” Mason was confident that since Sienna was on his side, it would soon be his time to soar to greater heights. It would then be impossible for these people to mess with him. He could easily deal with anyone from Deadly Arena who dared to oppose him. With Sienna’s strength, he could do whatever he wanted. “As long as you help me get what I want, I’ll give you whatever you want. That’s a promise,” Mason said smugly. Everyone was surprised and looked forward to i
“I’m surprised that these golems are so difficult to deal with. I thought we could crush them easily!” “If we had known earlier, we would've taken our time and let Philip’s people deal with them!” Everyone regretted it, but no one knew what to do now that the golems were in front of them. Mason gritted his teeth and led the fight. It was a matter of life and death, and no one could be excluded. These golems were difficult for Lyle to deal with, not to mention these losers. They suffered heavy casualties, and everyone was injured to some extent. Fortunately, they brought a lot of supplies with them. They had many pills to heal wounds and could save their lives for the time being. “One golem caused us such casualties. We’ll be in trouble if more golems turn up.” Someone glanced at Mason in a panic. The same man who spoke gulped and expressed his opinion, “I think we should work with Yule and the others. Maybe we can quickly reach our destination with them. More importantl
