This battle was simply spectacular! 10 supreme powerhouses a half-step to the other shore fought each other for three days and three nights at the borders of Cochly Mountain! By the time everyone noticed it, this battlefield had long turned into ruins! In the satellite image, an area of hundreds of miles was razed to the ground! Dozens of snow-capped mountains were destroyed! Looking down from a high altitude, this place was completely barren with charred ground! After that, dozens of teams explored the battlefield, trying to find something. Among them, some foreign forces slipped inside, trying to find out the reason why the 10 powerhouses made such a big commotion the other day. However, in the end, they failed to find any relevant clues. In a delicate balance of power, this fight gradually stopped. On the fourth day, a rumor spread like a wildfire. Of the five marquises responsible for guarding Cochly Mountain, one was seriously injured and two were slightly in
Hearing this, the people behind the scenes of the Lovelace family glanced at each other and whispered. “According to the news we received, the reason why the 10 powerhouses a half-step to the other shore fought the other day was probably because of the innate power of rules in her body.” “Where did this sudden innate power of rules come from? Why choose her?” “We don’t know. Judging from the current situation, this innate power of rules can develop her from an ordinary person to the strength of the sixth zone. After this, she’ll have to learn and use the power of rules.” After some discussions, the head of the Lovelace family said, “I don't know whether this is a blessing or a curse for the Lovelace family. It's unclear what impact this will have on our plans either. We must find out as soon as possible where this special power of rules came from.” With that said, everyone left. On Philip’s side, he had no idea what happened to the ball of white light. In the past few day
On this day, the branch Clarke family made a move. Many guards gathered outside Clarke Manor, and patrolling warships also appeared in the waters outside Arcadia Island, which claimed to be patrolling but had malicious intents instead. Inside the white castle at the highest point of the main family… Philip stood with his hands behind his back in the hall, his back to the people behind him. He stood in the position where his father used to stand, looking at the scenery outside through the skylight roof. “Young Patriarch, the branch family has started preparations. Levi has deployed all the guards of the branch family, and they’re stationed ten miles away from the manor. “In addition, there are six warships of the branch family in the southern seas. “The 13 Tiger Generals of the branch family have also been deployed.” George quickly reported the current situation. His eyes were full of anxiety, and there was even cold sweat on his forehead. Fourth Madam Hazel Eva and Fift
Aria said, “Your father has given Giada a restriction order that bans her entry on the island for one year. The forces she planted in Arcadia Island have more or less been uprooted by your father in secret. Even if some are left, they can’t do anything. You don’t have to worry.” Philip nodded and looked at the people in front of him. His eyes fell on George, and his gaze became sharp like a mighty king. He said solemnly, “Issue my Patriarch’s Order. Assemble all guard forces of the main family! Also, formally inform the branch family that if they obey the orders of the main family, they can survive. If they choose to disobey and rebel, they’ll suffer the most severe oppression from the main family!” “Yes, Young Patriarch!” George replied respectfully. Philip added, “In addition, inform Uncle Tim and the others about my plans and actions.” Tim Clarke and Horace Clarke were not on Arcadia Island at this moment. They were both working on something in the outside world. After pre
Hahaha! Levi laughed aloud and said with a cold glint in his eyes, “Young Patriarch, your order is a little too unreasonable. The branch and main families have always minded our own business and never interfered with each other. Now that you want to make this change, are you going to ignore the family rules?” Philip chuckled and said, “Levi, we both know the truth, so why bother beating about the bush? My request is very simple. In the next 10 years, the branch family will obey the orders of the main family, and the main family will not take any unwarranted actions against the branch family. 10 years later, if you want to become an independent ruler, I won’t interfere.” With that said, Levi’s face darkened as he frowned, pondering the authenticity and credibility of Philip’s words. 10 years. The branch family had to endure the main family lording over them for 10 years, which was something Levi was unwilling to see. “Hehe, Philip, I’m sorry to disappoint you, then. The bran
Levi smiled sinisterly and said, “Philip, you’re too arrogant. Do you really think that being the young patriarch of the main family can deter me and the branch family? You even dare to barge into the branch family with just 100 soldiers of your Griffin Army. Do you really think that I dare not do anything to you?” With that said, the branch family’s guards pointed their guns at Philip and his army. These people were the death warriors of the branch family and had no concept of the young patriarch of the main family. Philip glanced coldly at the guards before he looked at Levi and said, “Do you know what you’re doing?” “Hahaha!” Levi laughed, took a few steps forward, and got close to Philip. His eyes flashed with killing intent as he said coldly, “Of course, I know what I'm doing. But so what? I have you surrounded now, and I have 30,000 guards of the branch family standing outside Clarke Manor! I also have six warships and 13 Tiger Generals around Arcadia Island. Do you thi
“What?!” Levi was shocked! “How did this happen? Are you mistaken?” Levi shouted at the blood-covered guard and roared, “Where are the others?! Where are the 13 Tiger Generals? Let them surround the manor immediately! Now!” Thud, thud, thud! As soon as Levi finished speaking, several wounded guards rushed over, fell to the ground, and said hesitantly, “Young Chieftain, it’s bad. Our warships have been surrounded, and a large number of guards not affiliated with the Clarke family stopped the 13 Tiger Generals outside Arcadia Island. The 13 Tiger Generals were defeated and have been captured!” Boom! Those words exploded in Levi’s mind! His vision went black, and he staggered. He slumped on the floor, his face instantly growing pale. A lot of cold sweat broke out from his forehead! “Impossible. How could this happen?” Levi roared and grabbed the guard’s uniform frantically, his face flushed red! When the elders of the branch family heard the news, everyone panicked.
Levi was startled, took the phone, and heard a voice. “Seth Larson, what are you doing? How dare you barge into my place?” “Per the order of the Clarke family, Tucker Stone conspired with external enemies and hatched an evil plot. This is an official warrant for Tucker Stone! Whoever dares resist will be executed on the spot!” Clatter! A huge fight broke out. Levi’s face changed after hearing this. Finally… “Seth Larson, you’ll die a miserable death! You’re doing this for your personal grudge. You!” Bang! A gunshot! Levi cried out in fear and looked at Philip blankly. Philip said coldly, “Levi, what else do you have to say now?” Levi’s eyes darted around. Finally, he laughed sinisterly and said, “Hahaha! Philip, so what if you’ve taken over District 12 and joined forces with Seth? This is still the branch family’s territory. Do you dare to kill me?” Philip’s expression darkened as he grabbed the pistol from the general's hand. He aimed the gun at Levi and said
At this time, Cameron and his men returned in the middle of the night. He saw the Claude family members crying as soon as he returned. They were bruised and battered from a beating, looking utterly miserable. Cameron was furious that someone would dare to bully his family members while he was away. “What's going on? Why are you in this state? Did someone cause trouble while I was away?” Cameron was angry and in disbelief, feeling that something was strange. Everyone nodded nervously. “Ronan is here!” The old woman who suffered the worst beating was very upset and glared viciously in Ronan’s direction. “Cameron, although you left me in charge while you were away, I can’t do it anymore. Ronan kept messing with us and even brought some people to beat us up!” The old woman made up stories and described Ronan as an unforgivable evildoer. Cameron scowled, but he could not believe it. “What did you say? Ronan actually hit someone?” He was unwilling to believe it. Although Ronan
Philip took out some fine wine, which was worthless to him but priceless to Ronan. Ronan laughed at Philip’s nonchalance and patted his shoulder. The two of them sat down and started drinking. Rabbit joined in the fun and swallowed the wine in big gulps. Although the alcohol content was a bit high for Rabbit, he enjoyed it happily. They quickly felt slightly tipsy. Although they were practitioners, they did not use any techniques to sober up. It was okay to be a little intoxicated as long as it did not affect them too much. It was rare to find a friend who they could click so well with, so it was a blessing to get drunk together. As they drank happily, the aroma of the wine wafted out. Everyone smelled the fragrance and looked for the source of the scent. They quickly found Ronan's residence and scowled. That smell proved that he had to be drinking good wine in there. “How is he worthy of such fine wine?” “Just a whiff of that wine clears my head, so it has to be good s
Although victory was not confirmed, they had to take part. Since the other party said so, they had no choice but to win. At the thought of the other major families, Cameron scowled as he felt the pressure. “I heard that you have a non-human descendant in your family,” the other party said with a smile, but it was uncertain if his intention was to mock Cameron or to find out some information. The Claude family scowled as they instantly figured out who the other party was talking about—Ronan. This person had disgraced the whole family. “We do have someone like that in our family. Back then, one of our youths was restless and impulsive…” Cameron wanted to explain, but the other party interrupted him. The mysterious man smiled with satisfaction at Cameron’s admittance. “If that’s the case, it’s great. Let this person take part in the competition. I’m interested in his strength and want to try it out in person. “Other than your victory, this person has to take part in the comp
By treating Ronan badly, the people would receive some rewards from the higher-ups. After a while, everyone got used to it. Even the wine sold to Ronan was cheap wine that no one wanted. “There’ll be a place for me in the world somehow!” Philip shook his head. These people’s attitude was strange, indeed, but he did not think that they could not find a roof over their heads. Since the Claude family was so arrogant, they could take over their place. Thinking of this, Philip took them back to the Claude family's manor and knocked on the door with a smile on his face. The guards were horrified to see Philip and Ronan again. They did not forget how badly they were beaten earlier. Thus, no one dared to stop them from marching in for fear that they would be beaten again. They could not afford the consequences. The Claude family quickly learned about their appearance. They scowled, their faces turning ashen. “Why are you here again?” “We already told you that they won't be ba
Even though everyone was angry, they could not help but taunt the culprit. The cowardly man coughed at their sarcastic remarks. “Let’s wait until the family head returns tomorrow. I don’t believe Ronan will be so arrogant when he’s around!” After saying that, he ran to his room and hid, unwilling to say more to the others. Ronan did not know what happened back then. As long as he refused to admit it, he believed that Ronan could not do anything to him. It was a conspiracy against Ronan’s mother back then. If the family head refused to protect him, he would tell Ronan everything to save himself.… After Ronan left the luxurious manor, his mood instantly became better. He never thought that he would do something so spectacular one day. “Thank you.” Ronan lowered his head to Philip humbly. He was grateful to Philip and wanted to pledge brotherhood with Philip. Philip waved his hands awkwardly, surprised by Ronan’s courtesy. He did not do much; he just gave him some confiden
Other members of the family had been so pampered that no one could fight Ronan either. All of them were sent flying, and some of them hung on the tree miserably. Philip laughed at the scene. These people had always treated Ronan as a pushover when, in fact, Ronan was a force to be reckoned with. None of them was a match for him. “I know that other than my uncle, some other people were also involved in harming my mother, but I don’t know who they are. You'd better hand them over or no one will leave this place alive today.” Ronan’s killing intent was very intense. He was clearly very angry. Everyone panicked and looked around carefully, at a loss for what to do. They saw the fear in each other’s eyes. The family head had taken Ronan's uncle and some other people to a city. It was difficult for them to find a decision-maker when the elders were not around. The instigator from back then was not around either. Who else could they look for? “Calm down. This matter has nothin
Ronan’s uncle did not hesitate to force his elder sister to her death just to kick the most promising descendant out of the family. This grudge was unforgivable. Everyone laughed at Ronan’s audacity to seek revenge. Only a fool would dare to do that. “Do you know how powerful your uncle is?” “Although he’s not here now, he’s not someone you can afford to mess with.” Everyone mocked Ronan without taking him seriously at all. “Did you hear what I said?” Ronan scowled. These people kept disregarding his request and paid no attention to him. He felt very upset. “Since you won’t hand him over, I’ll beat you until he appears. If he’s not here, other people can take his place.” He knew that his uncle was quite powerful and would often go to other towns or cities for networking. While it was true that he might not be around, it did not mean that Ronan would not make trouble for the others. Everyone looked at Ronan arrogantly, waiting to see what Ronan would do. Suddenly, Rona
The guards were taken aback by Ronan’s sudden arrogance and looked at him doubtfully. “What’s up with you? Do you want to take action?” “After all these years, have you finally decided to avenge your mother?” They kept taunting Ronan without realizing how angry he was. “I repeat—I want to see the people who forced my mother to her death back then!” Ronan stomped his foot in anger and glared at everyone around him. The guards were startled because they finally felt Ronan’s strength with that stomp. They did not expect him to be that strong. Maybe because of Ronan’s fury, they finally realized his might and quickly scrambled into the manor. Philip saw the name on a plaque—Claude Manor. The place looked pretty imposing, and Philip felt a stab of longing as he looked around. Philip stood without a word. His main objective was to help Ronan. The guards ran away in a panic. They knew that Ronan was going to make things difficult for them. “It’s bad. Ronan is at the door
The man could not resist because he was alone. Next time, he would bring more people to deal with Philip. Philip saw his resentment but took no notice of it. No matter how much he resented Philip, he would not survive tonight. Such an arrogant and domineering person would not live to see the sun tomorrow. “Y-You hit him?” Ronan looked at Philip in disbelief, shocked that Philip would stand up for him. Although he usually appeared simple and kind, he was not a fool. He knew that Philip hit that guy to protect him. “If you meet such people again, just fight them and don’t worry about unnecessary things. You don't want to fight because you’re afraid of losing the right to enter the town, but you’re my brother from now on. “I can take care of your wine supply, and we can find other ways to make money. You don’t have to waste your efforts and live under someone else's roof anymore,” Philip said arrogantly, not taking these people seriously at all. Hearing that, Ronan nodded with
