Philip said, “Last night, a group of disciple assassins with the strength of the fifth zone launched an attack on the Warren and Hart families in the South, killing 72 people. All the important members of the Warren and Hart families have disappeared. Aren’t you the one who arranged for this to happen?” “What?!” Ernest stood up in shock and asked, “How could such a thing happen?” He looked at Leon and asked, “Villa Master Jefferson, they’re the families in your South. Did something like this really happen?” Just as he finished speaking, a henchman rushed in from the door, knelt on the floor in a hurry, and shouted, “Villa Master Turner, something has happened. The Warren and Hart families in the South suffered a massacre last night. This case has been taken over by the Supernatural Bureau.” An imperceptible sneer flashed across Ernest’s mouth as he chided, “I already know! How are you doing your job? It took you so long to inform me. Young Patriarch Clarke and Villa Master Je
Back to Philip’s side. After he returned to the hotel, his face was full of chills. He stood in front of the French windows, dialed a number, and said coldly, “Uncle Tango, I need your help.” On the other end of the line, a gruff voice rang out. “Young Patriarch, how may I help you?” “Help me teach some people a lesson. Remember, don’t kill them. Just teach them a lesson and make them lie on the bed for a few months,” Philip said. “Okay,” the voice on the line said. After he ended the call, Philip looked at the distance somberly and said, “Ernest Turner, I hope you don’t regret your actions.” … Half a day later, Ernest and Cyril were discussing in the hall of the villa. Suddenly, a guard at the door rushed in, knelt on the floor, and said while panting for breath, “Villa Master Turner, something has happened!” Hearing that, Ernest frowned and said coldly, “What’s wrong? Why are you panicking?” The kneeling guard quickly said, “Villa Master Turner, we just received the
Cyril trembled at Ernest’s order. He said, “Villa Master Turner, do we really want to take things that far? They’re the core members of the Warren and Hart families, the close relatives of Ray Warren and Tony Hart. If we do that and things come to light, there’s no way we can get away with this.” Ernest turned his head abruptly, looked at Cyril grimly, and said, “Are you afraid? Do you want to be a sinner of the Northern supernatural disciple world and an ant at the bottom of Philip’s sole?” Cyril jolted at Ernest’s words and said, “Villa Master Turner, I’m not afraid but—” “Do it immediately! Since Philip dares to do this, he shouldn’t blame me for being ruthless!” Ernest roared. Cyril nodded and left quickly. Then, he got into a car and sped toward an abandoned training ground in the west of Beechwood City. This training ground was located on the outskirts with mountains and quarries nearby. There was an abandoned site at the edge of the quarry, which was the training
Something unexpected happened! In an instant, three teams of fully armed combatants appeared. One team fell from the sky and broke through the ceiling above! One team rushed in from one side and crashed through a wall with an armored tank, while the other one broke through the windows. Others rushed in through the doors! The three teams of fully armed combatants with guns in their hands brought the scene under control in an instant! “Drop your weapons! On the ground!” “Do not resist or we will fire!” “Down on the ground!” Seeing this scene, the man in the lead still wanted to resist and roared, “Charge out!” However! Rat-tat-tat! Rapid gunshots! More than a dozen vicious people guarding the hostages were shot and fell in a pool of blood! The scene was cleaned up in an instant! All the hostages were rescued. The leader of the team also quickly reported back, “All the hostages have been rescued, but Cyril Hopper was not found at the scene.” “Okay. Come bac
When he saw these eight people, Cyril’s heart dropped to rock bottom. He knew that he was doomed today, but he would not give up without a fight! “Are you here to kill me?” Cyril sneered as he asked. Without waiting for an answer, he increased his aura to its peak and said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you. After all, I’m a disciple who just entered the sixth zone!” A thunder-like roar echoed throughout the mountain forest. Birds and beasts scattered! Cyril’s demeanor was no longer like a normal person at this moment and was extremely fierce! The eight people did not waste any words with Cyril at all and just charged at him! They were disciples of the fourth and fifth zones with very strong overall combat effectiveness! Bang, thud! Rumble! Instantly, the place was engulfed by the battle. Cyril wandered among the eight people and fought non-stop. Both parties launched killing moves. Cyril was a disciple of the sixth zone, after all. His comprehension and control o
Cyril roared in pain, “Argh! How dare you?!” However, before Cyril could continue, Philip’s fist slammed into Cyril’s face like a meteor with raging airwaves! Bang! In an instant, Cyril flew out like a ray of light! Boom! He smashed through more than a dozen towering trees and fell to the ground. As he slid across, a deep pit of dozens of meters was razed on the ground. Smoke billowed! When Cyril fell to the ground and was about to get up, Philip was already in front of him. He raised his foot and stomped on Cyril’s chest. Crack! The sound of broken ribs resounded through the forest trail again! Cyril roared in pain and lost all ability and will to resist. “Argh! You’re so cruel! Let go of me. I’m the master of Terrain Villa and the head of the Hopper family in Beechwood City. You…” Cyril roared but his words were distorted by the pain in his leg and chest. “So annoying!” Philip said coldly and raised his hand to form a sword from condensed air. Puff!
Soon, Ernest took a special car to the villa where Stanley lived. This was a property owned by the Berry family in Beechwood City with a moderate size equivalent to a soccer field. The villa looked like a white castle surrounded by trees and flowers. After being verified by the guards at the entrance, Ernest walked into the hall of the villa. At this moment, inside the hall, Stanley stood by the window looking at the scenery in the courtyard. “Young Master Berry, you have to help me!” Ernest entered the door and knelt on the floor. Stanley turned around, looked at the kneeling Ernest, and said mildly, “I already know everything. To be honest, I don't like what you did. We could’ve easily defeated Philip in a fair game, but for your selfish intentions, you sent disciple assassins to kidnap the Warren and Hart families. You can’t keep this matter under wraps. Although you have people in the Supernatural Bureau, they’ll definitely sell you out to protect themselves. What do
After saying that, Ernest silently left the hall. Stanley sat on the sofa in the hall, took a sip of tea, and said, “Help me get in touch with Mr. Fern of the Northern Division in the Supernatural Bureau.” … Back to Philip’s side. After he returned to the hotel, Leon found him and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, Mr. Sacha of the Southern Supernatural Bureau division has been waiting in the side hall.” Philip hummed and headed toward the side hall without delay. When the door opened, he saw a middle-aged man with a potbelly. He was wearing black-rimmed glasses and sat on the sofa, where he drank tea and ate snacks comfortably. As Philip walked in, the fat middle-aged man put down the snacks in his hand, got up with a smile, and said with a bow, “Young Patriarch Clarke, it’s nice to meet you. I’m Brad Sacha. You’re indeed a talented and good-looking young man. You’re a good role model for the younger generation. With young talent like Young Patriarch Clarke in the South, it’s
“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
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
