Philip quickly rushed to the room. Layla lay on the bed, her face pale. Her breathing was still very weak. He walked over, looked at Layla’s condition, and stroked her hair. Then, he got up, walked out of the room, and bowed to Dr. Hoff. He said, “Dr. Hoff, how is my friend doing?” The old man in front of him was talking to Claus. Seeing Philip, he smiled and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, don’t worry. Your friend is out of danger now. There’s nothing serious, but…” “But what?” Philip asked. Dr. Hoff shook his head and said, “She seems to have a condition that I can’t figure out. I’ve practiced medicine for decades, but I’ve never seen such a condition before.” “What condition?” Philip asked nervously. Dr. Hoff said, “I’m sorry, but I can’t tell. However, this condition can be both good and bad for your friend. The existence of this condition offsets the dead energy that ravages your friend’s body. It’s my first time seeing such a strange disease.” Hearing that, Philip
Philip looked at Fennel calmly and asked, “What do you think?” Fennel said, “I think we can’t go out now. We have Dragon King Motley to hold the fort here, and those people won’t dare to do anything for the time being. Once we go out, we won’t be facing some small forces but the world at large.” Philip frowned with coldness in his eyes and said, “Announce to those people outside that in three days, I’ll hold a dinner party to view the secret treasure of the ancient sage. They’re invited.” “Are you sure you want to do this?” Fennel was shocked and could not figure out Philip’s intention for doing this. Philip said with a smile, “This is the only way to do it. Staying here forever is not a solution, so I might as well invite them to look at it.” Claus walked in at this moment and said with a smile, “That’s right. I share the same thought with Young Patriarch Clarke. If you want to deal with those people outside, you can only make it public. The secret treasure of the ancient
Three days later, the ancient sage's secret treasure viewing event was held in the most luxurious hotel in Mystic City. All the forces in the city and various figures from the outside world were invited to attend tonight's dinner party. Although there were few luxury cars in front of the hotel, famous people graced the red carpet. Among them, people from the Larson family and representatives from the Gentleman Court and the Alliance attended too. Representatives of various disciple families and some large domestic forces were also here to view the secret treasures of the ancient sage. When the dinner began, the hall was already packed. Everyone chatted in low voices about the secret treasures of the ancient sage. “What do you think this ancient sage's secret treasure looks like?” “Who knows? But I heard that the secret treasure can help a powerhouse at the peak of the seventh zone to enter a half-step to the other shore directly!” “Really? We can watch a good show tonig
Claus Motley walked out from the back of the hall with a smile and greeted everyone, “Everyone, do excuse me for being late. I had to take care of some private matters.” As Claus spoke, he was already standing next to the main seat. Everyone nodded slightly to Claus. After that, Claus did not sit on the main seat but smiled at everyone and said, “I’m not the host for tonight.” Having said that, he stood on one side, looked at the door, and announced, “Let’s welcome Young Patriarch Clarke.” Then, Philip walked in with Fennel and the others. Tonight, Philip wore a dark gray suit with shoes, looking handsome and imposing. Especially that pair of well-defined eyes with a faint chill that made everyone avert their eyes. This young man’s presence was too compelling. Philip took his seat, and everyone looked at each other. An old man with a walking cane spoke up at this moment, “We’ve long heard of Young Patriarch Clarke’s reputation. I didn’t expect you to be so young. Yo
The knife and fork flew at Keith with extreme speed and force! Keith sneered, snorted coldly, and said, “Hmph, young man, you’re out of your depths!” While saying that, the slap he launched had already collided with the knife and fork! Boom! It could be clearly seen the knife and fork broke through Keith’s attack with great force and pierced through Keith’s palm with two poofs, spraying blood all over! “Argh! How dare you, young man!” Keith retracted his hand, his face full of anger! He actually suffered a loss in front of a young man in the early stage of the seventh zone! All the guests present were shocked by this scene. They thought that Philip would definitely suffer in Keith’s hands, but the outcome was reversed! Keith Stafford was a powerhouse in the late stage of the seventh zone, but he was injured by a junior in the early stage of the seventh zone! “Whoa, what happened? Keith Stafford was defeated in one move!” “Oh my, how strong is Young Patriarch Cla
Philip’s kick landed on Keith’s chest, which sent him flying a few meters away before he fell heavily to the ground! Everyone was shocked by this scene! Keith rolled to the ground, clutched his chest, and spat out a mouthful of blood. He stared at Philip with dilated pupils and said, “W-What is going on? Why did I lose my strength?” Philip sneered, showed the white jade box in his hand to everyone, and said, “That’s because what I hold in my hand is the secret treasure of the ancient sage that everyone wants to see tonight!” Whoa! The crowd was in an uproar! Everyone’s eyes popped wide open as they stared at the white jade box in Philip’s hands. Was this the secret treasure of the ancient sage? Everyone’s minds raced. The secret treasure of the ancient sage was right in front of them now. It would be a lie if they said they did not want it. Lying on the floor, Keith looked at the white jade box in Philip's hand and said, “Can this ancient sage's secret treasure supp
The hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone’s eyes focused on the old man in fancy clothes. Claus was also taken aback when he saw the old man. He whispered in Philip’s ear, “Young Patriarch Clarke, this person has a solid background. He’s from the Imperial Palace and is one of the four chiefs. His name is Tyson Floyd, and his strength is unfathomable. Even the Imperial Preceptor has to show him some respect.” Hearing this, Philip frowned as he looked at the old man in fancy clothes. The old man looked very kind and friendly, and his eyes seemed wise. He smiled and put down the teacup in his hand. He looked at Philip and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, can you let me take a look at the secret treasure of the ancient sage?” Everyone in the hall held their breath at the request. This old man was from the Imperial Palace. he was the person with the highest status here! Tyson Floyd almost entered the Imperial Palace back then. The first half of his life could be described as s
Everyone looked in the direction of the old man who spoke. The old man had a ruddy and youthful face. He looked very energetic. Tyson frowned as a chill flashed in the corner of his eyes. He said, “Holt Woods, this is Northwest Mystic City. It’s my territory, not your Heavenly Court! I don’t need your permission to make a decision!” The old man in a suit laughed and said, “Tyson Floyd, do you think you can stop Heavenly Court if we really want to interfere? Even if the Imperial Preceptor were here today, he wouldn’t dare to question my actions, let alone you!” Bang! Tyson smacked the table and suddenly exploded with a strong aura no less than a half step to the other shore, which swept over the other party. He said coldly, “Presumptuous! How dare you belittle the Imperial Preceptor in our country? You have crossed the line!” Boom! This angry shout frightened everyone so much that they glanced at each other! It was like the sound of thunder! However, Holt Woods was not
