Old Master Skater felt exasperated, thinking that Lucius was fooling around. In his old age, he finally fell asleep after tossing and turning, only to hear his son screaming the next moment. After they hurried over, they found that they had been fooled by this guy! Everyone resented Lucius for kicking such a fuss. Lucius was puzzled by everyone’s reaction. He mustered up the courage to look at the window but found nothing outside. Surprised, Lucius rushed to the window and looked around, but no one was there! “Are you looking for me?” An unfamiliar voice rang behind Lucius, and everyone turned around in surprise at the sound. Lucius stared at Philip cautiously as his forehead dripped with cold sweat. This man was so powerful to appear in his home without a sound. He could not detect this person’s whereabouts despite being an expert in the fifth zone. How strong could this person be? Lucius apprehensively pulled his family members to his side as he stared at Philip
Lucius’ eyes popped wide open. Other than Lucius, several people in the room stared at Philip incredulously. They did not tell everyone in the family clearly about Celia’s incident. They simply said that someone messed with them, and their family members were warned not to mess with that young man and the Stein family. As for who that young man was, no one was interested. Hence, they were shocked after learning Philip's identity. Philip was puzzled at their reaction. He guessed that the useless siblings did not convey his message to their family members. However, now that he was here and had revealed his identity, the Skater family had to give him an explanation. “How could you be from the Clarke family? They've…” Gray backed away. He obviously knew something but hesitated for some reason. “Do you know something about the Clarke family?” Philip smiled at Gray. Among the nine people present, five of them looked surprised while the other four seemed puzzled. Obvious
If this matter was made public, the Skater family would be annihilated, and Gray did not want to die. “I’ll talk! I know everything! Don’t listen to them!” Gray hugged Philip's thigh and wailed. Philip was shocked by his cowardice. He had not done anything or displayed his strength. He merely revealed his identity, and Gray was already scared out of his wits? “Gray, shut up!” Lucius roared angrily, making a grabbing motion in Gray’s direction. The next second, Gray appeared in Lucius’ hands. “Shut the fuck up!” Lucius roared. He slapped Gray, hoping to knock some sense into him. Gray was dumbfounded by the slap. He stared at Lucius blankly, not saying a word. At Lucius’ action to stop Gray, Philip was even more certain that they knew a lot. “Since you don't want him to talk, you can talk. I believe your logic and reasoning will be better than your silly brother,” Philip said with a smile. Then, as if he remembered something, he turned to Gray and said, “Since your
Philip felt a gust of wind at his neck, and it was filled with murderous intent. He knew that Lucius wanted to kill him with one blow. Philip felt very satisfied with Lucius’ action. Since returning to his ancestral land, he had not met someone as strong as Lucius. “Aren't you afraid that your villa will be destroyed?” Philip chuckled. He disappeared underground and reappeared behind Old Master Skater. He had to deal with those five people who reacted earlier, and one of them was Old Master Skater. This old man was very restless just now. It seemed that when the Skater family discussed this matter back then, he had probably contributed many ideas. Since he was too old to practice, he was just an ordinary person. Philip appeared behind him and kicked his butt. Old Master Skater was kicked to the ground and passed out instantly. Philip controlled his strength very well. The old man would not die but would suffer the pain of being tortured. This kick would probably b
“I was wrong!” Lucius said. Everyone was surprised to hear that from Lucius’ mouth. “Lucius, how could you bow down to a loser?” “He’s a descendant of the Clarke family. You can’t admit defeat to him!” The others could not bear it any longer and sprang into action. A simple move from Philip sent them flying. Lucius was furious at this scene and yelled at Philip, “I was wrong! I’m sorry! I’ll tell you everything you want to know!” Philip sneered at Lucius’ words. “Don't you think it's too late? If you hadn't stopped your stupid brother from telling the truth, I might have considered sparing your lives. This is all your fault.” Philip put his hand on Lucius' head to steal his memory. He did not have the slightest pity for such a vicious person. When the Skater family attacked the Clarke and Larson families with the other families back then, they did not show the slightest pity either. Numerous members of the Clarke family were exiled from the island with no news of
“Didn’t you tell me to kill him? The internal strife among large families is very competitive. You were the one who told me to kill your brother, but you’re questioning me now? I’m speechless!” Philip chuckled. Although he looked harmless, the Skater family thought he was the devil himself. Gray knew there was nothing he could do now. He had no choice but to kneel and beg Philip for mercy. “Please let me go. I’ll tell you everything I know!” Gray was kept in the dark by the old master back then, and no one told him about dealing with the Clarke family. After all, Gray had always been unreliable, and Old Master Skater was fully aware of it. Unexpectedly, he bumped into their meeting by chance, and they had no choice but to include him. Gray was extremely arrogant when he participated in the attack on the Clarke family. He threw his weight around and told the Clarke family that he would spare their lives if they begged him on their knees. However, these people were to
However, this fearless young master seemed very scared now, so they felt this matter was not that simple. “Young Master Skater, who’s that guy? Why is he stopping us?” his lackeys asked respectfully. After all, the Skater family villa was on fire. It would be too late if they delayed any longer. “T-That guy… Let’s run down the hill!” Cole issued the order and ran down another path without hesitation. Everyone was dumbfounded at this scene, but they followed Cole. Everyone drank a lot when they were singing just now and fell to the ground in a daze before running far. However, they were on a downhill path, so they rolled down miserably and almost lost consciousness. Philip was surprised by their actions but allowed Cole to escape. He was not worried at all that this ignorant person would seek revenge on him. Cole did not even know what to do with his life, so why would he want to avenge his family? Even if he wanted to seek revenge, so what? He could experience wha
Through the fragmented memories, Philip saw a familiar shadow in this planned massacre. The Tampa family. This family held a high position in the Clarke family, was proficient in various poisons, and lived in recluse. They were trusted partners of the Clarke family. Philip judged from these scattered memory fragments that something was wrong with the Tampa family. However, he could not put all the pieces together, so he had no choice but to find the Tampa family. If the Tampa family had helped the Clarke family in the battle, they should no longer exist. On the other hand, if the Tampa family was still alive and well, something must be wrong with them. Those crazy people were out to destroy all the major families and factions. How could they let go of the powerful Tampa family? At the thought of the Tampa family, Philip recalled the Zucker family. A few days ago, Montel said he wanted to look for other partners, and he disappeared without leaving any contact informati
“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
