“Madam Johnston, my offer still stands at 60 to me and 40 to you. This is also my bottom line. If we can't agree to this, we don’t have to discuss cooperation any further. After all, Martin Pharmaceutical is waiting to cooperate with us. Why don’t you think about it carefully?” A fox-like smile bloomed at the corner of Willy’s mouth as he picked up the glass of red wine on the table. He swayed it slightly in his hand and took a sip. Wynn’s beautiful brows twitched. Just at this moment, she received a text message. It was from Philip. Taking this opportunity, Wynn got up and said, “Mr. Fadden, excuse me. I need to return a call.” Willy smiled and said, “Please go ahead.” After saying that, his lecherous eyes fell on Mindy. Mindy wanted to go out too, but if she did, it would not be respectful to Willy. Hence, she endured Willy’s lecherous eyes and remained seated. Wynn left the private room and saw three foreigners standing in the corridor. They were seemingly looking at t
Wynn was a little uncomfortable and got up. She got away from Willy’s lecherous hands. She raised her glass and said with a smile, “Mr. Fadden, let me propose a toast to you. About the cooperation, I have to go back and discuss it.” Willy frowned and did not accept the glass in Wynn’s hand but said coldly, “What? Are you looking down on me? My company controls 70% of the market in the south of Penhart. Even foreign pharmaceutical companies, both import and export, have to go through me. “Madam Johnston, I hope you don’t turn down a helping hand. I'm trying to advise you with good intentions.” With that said, Willy snorted and returned to his seat with a cold expression on his face. Wynn looked at Willy and said with a smile, “Mr. Fadden, don’t be angry. I know the size and strength of your company, but this issue involves the profit distribution in the contract. I really need to go back and discuss it with the others.” “Hehe.” Willy frowned and said with a laugh, “Madam Joh
Hearing that, Wynn seemed to realize something. She turned to look at these ferocious foreign men, forced a smile, and said, “Did you get the wrong private room?” “No mistake. It’s you all right, my dear cousin.” At this time, a cold male voice came from the direction of the door. Liam Johnston, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walked in with a cold face and a sneer. He had his hands in his trouser pockets. “Liam?” Wynn frowned and said, “What do you want?” Liam smiled and ignored Wynn. He turned to Willy who was sitting in the main seat and said with a bow, “Mr. Fadden, why don't you move to my private room?” Willy was not a person who could not understand the situation. He frowned, put down the wine glass, got up, and left the private room. After Willy left, Liam turned to Wynn with a subtle smile. He sat in a chair and said, “Wynn, I’m here today just for one purpose. Martin Group wants to merge with Beacon Group and make Beacon Group our subsidiary. I’ve
Philip followed Yana and arrived at a specific area in the inner hall. It was a large and luxurious private room with few people. Philip looked around and saw four men with different expressions. They were all in their 50s. Yana led Philip into the room and he instantly attracted the attention of the four people. They looked at Philip with hostility before averting their eyes, no longer paying attention. Yana stepped forward with a smile, led Philip to the seat, and introduced, “Everyone, this is Mr. Clarke. He’s also here to participate in this auction for the clue to the Multidew Herb.” As soon as Yana finished speaking, a disdainful look crossed the face of a short and fat old man who had his arms folded over his chest. He looked away and said coldly, “Boss Young, those sitting here are not ordinary people. Don’t bring in any Tom, Dick, and Harry. This kid looks very unfamiliar.” Then, another middle-aged man with a crewcut and an angular face agreed with a flash of gl
Harold Stow stared at Philip coldly and sneered, “Well done, kid. You have guts. From the sound of it, you seem to know about the hidden families of door disciples.” “I just found out,” Philip replied mildly. “Hehe, since you just found out, where did you get the courage and confidence to say these words?” Harold’s face darkened as a murderous intent flickered in the corners of his eyes. “What? You’re just a bunch of old guys pulling your weight around. What's there to be afraid of?” Philip laughed. “Presumptuous!” Harold shouted angrily. With a slap, he shattered the chair he was sitting in into pieces! Such strength was indeed not comparable to ordinary people. Philip took a glance, and from the energy unleashed by Harold just now, he roughly judged his strength. A disciple of the second zone? A little weak. “Boy, kneel and apologize for your disrespect to us just now! Otherwise, I’ll break your limbs and pull out your tongue!” Harold shouted angrily. Philip sti
The location where the Multidew Herb grew? Hearing this, Philip tensed and clenched his fists tightly. He must get his hands on this jade pendant! Of course, the other four leaders also shared the same thought as Philip. Likewise, their eyes became fiery while their breathing shortened! The short and fat Master Lowe said, “Boss Young, do let us take a closer look at the jade pendant.” With a smile, Yana personally held the golden tray and walked to the front. Master Lowe tried to get his hands on it but Yana gently evaded him and said with a smile, “Master Lowe, this item is very precious. It has been passed down throughout history and can’t be touched easily. Please look at it with your eyes only.” Hearing that, Master Lowe frowned but did not say anything. He withdrew his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly. There was a faint glimmer in his eyes as he carefully stared at the flawless pure white jade pendant. This jade pendant was more similar to the jade slips held by
Harold Stow was unhappy with Philip right from the beginning and naturally sided strongly with Master Lowe at this moment. Yana said with a smile, “Gentlemen, everyone will be treated equally here. Of course, Mr. Clarke can look at it too.” Hmph! Harold turned his face and mocked, “Look? What does he know? A brat who doesn’t know anything can only satisfy his voyeuristic urge.” Philip paid no heed to Harold’s mockery and looked at the jade pendant seriously. At this moment, he used a little of his control over the rules of matter. Insight! In an instant, the barrier inside the jade pendant that could block all exploring senses collapsed under Philip’s control over the rule of insight. At this moment, a scene from a thousand years ago appeared in front of Philip’s eyes. It was a piece of history lost in ashes. There were fragmentary images of old men and young boys, as well as pill production and herb fields. Just when Philip was still exploring the historical image
Harold’s words totally diverted everyone’s attention to Philip. A level-three essence of life was not a joke! Yana’s request was too high. No one could fulfill it! However, after Harold drew the attention to him, Philip merely smiled and said, “I don’t quite understand what a level-three essence of life is.” Hahaha! Instantly, Harold and the others burst into laughter! “Kid, you're really something! I thought you had some ability just now, but now, it seems that you’re just an innocent young man who knows nothing! You haven't even heard of the level-three essence of life. What are you doing sitting here?” Harold laughed before his tone turned cold. The short and fat Master Lowe also sarcastically said, “Since you don't know it, you don't need to participate in the competition. Just sit and watch from the sidelines.” After that, Master Lowe said to Yana, “Boss Young, this is a matter of great importance. I need to discuss it with everyone in the family. I’ll give you a
Philip did not intend to kill Tom. On the contrary, he wanted Tom to live well so that he could suffer in pain all the time. Philip smacked Tom's body several times. Tom felt something was wrong the moment it happened. He looked distorted as if he was controlled by someone. His body was also twisting in weird angles. “I’ve destroyed your practice. You can never regain your power even if the demons help you. What do you think of this reward?” Philip sneered at Tom’s twisted posture. Philip severed all of Tom’s veins and imprisoned him in the swamp so that he could suffer the erosion of the swamp day and night. He wanted Tom to watch over Marina's remains forever. “I don’t have any grudge against the merfolk. I promised to help you back then, but you were stupid enough to believe the words of a treacherous villain to the point of killing your holy maiden. This is really sad and ridiculous.” The merfolk had suffered a tragic end, which was pitiful, so Philip did not want to dwel
“Chief, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and finish the ritual. Don’t let that guy get his way. We have to get back at him for his disrespect.” After saying this, Tom charged at Marina. He knew that he needed Marina’s blood to have a fresh start. At this time, Moray took out the merfolk's pearl. They hid the pearl very well and finally found it in the warehouse. Marina smiled in despair at the sight of the pearl. She obviously did not expect things to go so out of control. “Philip, I’m sorry to have wronged you earlier. It seems that you’re the only good person around. Everyone else has an ulterior motive and is always thinking about using me. In that case, I’ll do the last thing I can do to seek your forgiveness.” After saying this, Marina rushed to the pearl in Moray’s hand with sorrow in her eyes. Philip had a bad premonition and had a guess about what Marina was about to do. “Stop her!” Philip waved his hand, and everyone rushed over. Some people pinned Moray down
Although Tom had been tortured beyond recognition, he was still rational and yelled out his plan. Moray was hesitant. He knew what Tom was referring to. The merfolk had a powerful secret technique to create an immortal body by merging the blood of the holy maiden with a powerful warrior of the family. Tom was in such a bad condition that he would be dead if they did not save him now. However, once Marina and Tom’s blood were merged, it meant that they would have to be together and never be separated again. Marina shook her head in rejection. Not to mention the damage it would cause her, but she did not want to share the rest of her life with Tom. No one could live an eternal life with someone they did not love. However, Moray had gone crazy. He was bewitched by Tom and only had victory in his eyes. Although Tom was in a bad state, Moray believed that Tom could turn the tables with a little help. With that thought in mind, Moray grabbed Marina and pushed her to Tom reluctant
“Very well. I approve of this marriage. After you defeat Philip and return in victory, we’ll proceed with your wedding.” Hearing that, Tom sneered inwardly. He was an ambitious man. He was unwilling to let Moray control him. He planned to get the merfolk's treasure now. As long as he got the pearls from the merfolk and fish creatures, he could dominate the world with the treasures that could store energy, and everyone would have to bow down to him. He could force Marina to provide her blood and activate the pearl.When Marina was in despair, the mud that trapped Philip suddenly moved. Everyone was astounded by this scene. No one thought that Philip could survive. He was very strong, indeed. Before Tom could attack again, the swamp exploded. Tom was shocked. He had a bad feeling that everything would progress differently. Thinking of this, he kept attacking Philip with every means he had. However, it was futile. Philip easily broke through Tom’s defense and attacked him.
Now that they had started fighting, it seemed that things would not end well. Moby had no idea whether he should root for Philip or not. “Philip, don’t give up!” After much deliberation, Moby finally decided to cheer for Philip. He stood a better chance to survive once Philip won. He would pay with his life if anything happened to Philip. Besides, he had just decided to join Philip when Philip generously rewarded him with some precious elf water, which proved that this was a boss worth following. He might get more benefits by sticking with Philip, so he did not want anything to happen to Philip. Meanwhile, Philip was stuck in the swamp. He was just about to break free from the swamp when he felt something strange. The swamp did not hurt him but strengthened his body instead, making his skin unusual. Philip already had a divine body, and combined with all the powerful pills and various herbs he had consumed before, his body was far beyond anyone’s imagination. It turned out
“You want the merfolk's pearl, but the fish creatures haven't given it to me yet. I don’t have it right now. Even if you defeat me, what’s the point? The fish creatures can run with it while you’re distracted. It’ll be a waste of time for you to fight me,” Philip said. He was really worried about Tom’s IQ. He could understand if he attacked Moby instead. “The thing is in Moby’s hand, but you want to attack me instead of dealing with him. Is it because you can't get the woman of your dreams?” Philip had a sharp tongue, and Tom trembled at his words. Philip dared to humiliate him like this. However, Philip had a point. He should deal with Moby instead. He was just annoyed that his beloved Marina liked Philip. Tom was infuriated by Philip’s words and attacked him. He had to kill Philip at all costs and show Marina the scene of Philip's defeat. The two were quickly engaged in a fight, and Tom moved fluidly in this disgusting swamp. Philip maintained a superior position and foug
“This is an agreement between me and Chief Moray. It’s not up to you.” After saying this, Tom took out a sharp dagger from his pocket. Philip thought Tom was going to attack him, but Tom used the dagger to cut himself instead, leaving everyone wondering what he was doing. After injuring himself, he took out a bottle of potion and poured it on the wound, which healed in a few seconds. Philip was surprised by the rapid recovery. The potion had to be a treasure. At this time, everyone realized that Tom's strength was increasing rapidly to the point of being daunting. Aslan stepped back cautiously, surprised by this unexpected turn. He had always been a fearless person, but he felt a sense of oppression from this weak person. It proved that the potion was powerful enough to pose a threat to him. Thinking of this, Aslan scowled and reached out for Philip, hoping that Philip could take care of it. After all, he and Lyle were equally strong. If he could not deal with Tom, Lyle
“Tom, if you can take care of this matter, I’ll give you Marina’s hand in marriage. I’m sure the two of you can work together to lead the merfolk to glory.” Everyone was shocked, including Tom, who was in disbelief. No one expected that Moray would ask Tom to marry Marina. Even the fish creatures were shocked. Although they were enemies, they knew that Marina was the merfolk's holy maiden. Tom had been protecting the holy maiden over the years, so he was a servant without a doubt. It was ironic to hear that a servant was worthy enough to marry the holy maiden. Marina was shocked and subconsciously glanced at Philip, who was indifferent about it. After all, it was the merfolk's affairs, nothing to do with him. Philip would not bother even if Marina had to marry an old man. “However, you must prove your ability before you can marry my daughter. If you get the item, I’ll hand her to you.” Moray had been seriously injured before this and could no longer fight normally. The merf
Philip took out a small bottle of elf water from his pocket and handed it to Moby. He wanted to see what the ugly creature would look like after taking the precious elf water. Moby was shocked to see Philip handing him some elf water and felt unworthy of it. At Philip’s insistence, he walked over and respectfully took the small bottle of elf water from Philip. He took a sip cautiously and wanted to marvel at its wonderful taste. Philip felt exasperated at Moby’s caution. Moby probably had no idea how Lyle and the others treated the water. They not only used it to bathe but also drank it casually like normal drinking water. Marina and the others watched with envy. They knew how precious the elf water was, so they were shocked by Philip’s generosity in giving it to the humble fish creatures. Even the merfolk found it difficult to get some elf water, but these lowly creatures got it. No one would be happy at this scene. Philip glanced at everyone. The other fish creatures st
