Wynn was wearing a pair of high heels. When she walked to Philip, her heels clicked on the ground like a piano recital. She looked panic-stricken.She was a woman, after all. The smell of blood was in the air, and there were broken arms scattered all over the floor. Each severed limb was covered in blood. She wanted to vomit, but she held it in.30 to 40 men were trying to chop someone up in broad daylight. The scene looked like a warzone, and the ground was painted with blood.If Philip were not here, she could not imagine what would have happened instead.Philip looked at Wynn who was standing next to him. There was a gentle smile on his face.Just like that, under everyone’s watchful gaze, Philip reached out an arm and grabbed Wynn’s tiny waist.Wynn shivered. She looked at Philip in disbelief.Was Philip still her spineless husband?When did he have these skills? He looked like an assassin in the movies.Philip chuckled and grabbed Wynn’s hand. He asked, “Are you ready?”
“Philip, you can’t slander me. I’m just passing by.”Noah laughed shamelessly. His eyes were glued on Wynn the entire time.He did all of this tonight to get this woman and Beacon Pharmaceutical!As such, he spent a lot of money to hire the Muay Thai champion, Thep. He would not allow any hiccups to happen during this urgent moment.Even if Philip was the variable, he would just get rid of this variable!“Hehe, passing by? How shameless!”Philip said nonchalantly.“Say that again!”Noah was furious!When Wynn saw Noah, she understood what was going on. She looked at him coldly with anger in her eyes.“Noah, did you do this?”Wynn asked angrily, “Why did you do this?”“It’s all for you and Beacon!”Noah decided to shed all pretense of cordiality. He was exposing the ugly side of him under his expensive suit. “Beacon is just a tiny company in Riverdale. How dare you go against the Andersons’ wishes? 60 percent? Now, I want all of Beacon’s profits, and of course, you!”In or
In a matter of life or death!Bang!After a loud sound, everyone saw something flying across the air. Then, it crashed onto the black commercial car. Instantly, there was a dent in the car, and the alarm started to blare loudly.That body rolled onto the ground with a loud thud. After that, he raised his head slowly and said, “M-Master…” Then, he fell unconscious.When everyone came back to their senses, they saw that Philip was still sitting there. Thep, who was attacking him just now, was now unconscious next to the commercial car!How shocking!It happened too fast!They took in deep breaths and could not believe what had happened.A figure appeared in front of Philip. He looked travel-worn, and his face was cold. The air of death was coursing throughout his body.Noah’s highly-respected Muay Thai champion, Thep, did not even exchange blows with the man in front of him!Philip lowered his head slightly and said, “I would’ve died right here if you were one second later.”R
Young Master Clarke of Capital City?Wynn only came back to her senses after ten seconds. Her face looked hesitant as she looked at Philip.Her husband was the young master of Clarke Group?How was that possible?However, Wynn looked at what was happening in front of her. There was the man who had suddenly appeared out of thin air to protect her husband and also Theo’s respectful attitude toward her husband.Also, everything that happened in the past...Wynn was feeling complicated right now. She could not say anything for a long while.Philip patted her head lovingly and smiled gently. He said, “Wynnie, you just have to remember that your husband is not a spineless bum. I’ll take care of everything next. Just wait for me to come home. When I’m home, I’ll tell you everything you want to know.”Wynn’s eyes glistening with tears. She sniffed and suppressed all of her questions. She shook her head furiously and said, “No, I’ll go with you. Let’s go to the hospital first.”After s
Not just Noah, even Mitch did not dare to utter a word to Philip.Philip looked so horrifying covered in blood. The air around him was enough to scare everyone at the scene.In their eyes, Philip was the true leader.He was someone who they could not afford to challenge.Noah was slapping himself repeatedly. Even though he looked sincere in admitting his fault, in Philip’s eyes, it was all a show.With a loud thud, Philip kicked him again out of the blue. Noah rolled backward after the impact, then Philip stomped his foot down on his chest.Philip towered over him and said coldly, “Noah, don’t think that I can’t see through your cheap tricks. You still want to come after me in the future, don’t you? Do you have that kind of power? Do the Andersons have that kind of power?”After Noah was exposed, his expression was grim. He held onto the foot that was on his chest and let out a lamentable smile. He said, “I don’t, Mr. Clarke.”“No?”Philip replied coldly, then he increased the
When Mitch heard this, his brows knitted together tightly.He looked at the 100 plus fighters in front of him and did not hesitate. He picked up the saber on the ground and swung it down on his right arm.Chop!Blood splattered all over the place. A horrifying scream was heard next.Mitch had chopped his arm clean off from the elbow!The other half of his arm fell on the ground in a puddle of blood.Then, he held his right arm and gritted his teeth. He looked at Philip while enduring the extreme pain and said ominously, “Philip Clarke, you will pay for what you did! Theo Zander, just wait for the wrath of the fraternity!”Mitch did not even think twice before chopping off his right arm after hearing Philip’s statement. If word about this got out, the underground forces of the South River District would tremble.Not to mention the other men in the fraternity who were in a state of shock.Philip looked coldly at Mitch who was kneeling on the ground. He said tyrannically, “Just b
The sky was terrifyingly gloomy.The wind started blowing from all around. Thunder started clapping above their heads.It was pouring, and one by one, the cars drove out of Riverdale. They had started a long-range raid from afar.The storm had arrived at the South River District.Crash!A sudden clap of thunder flashed across the sky. It was also pouring in Jay Drago’s courtyard house. The atmosphere in his house looked solemn and somber.Jay Drago’s place was a typical Chinese courtyard house with two floors both inside and outside. The walls and tiles were black, and it was the typical architecture layout from the Qing Dynasty. It was square, and in the middle, there was a patio. One could watch the sky and the stars over there.At the center of the veranda was a Chinese ancient bronze cauldron.Right now, it was filled with rainwater. The rain poured into the cauldron, making a sound that sounded like frying beans.Jay was in the middle hall of the inner courtyard. He was i
It was raining cats and dogs.A clap of thunder rumbled across the sky.There was an austere atmosphere inside the courtyard house. The two forces were in a standoff.Jay lifted his head to look in the direction of the sound. Then, he saw a young man under the umbrella. There was a cigarette dangling from his lips and blood on his shirt. He was also wrapped up in bandages.However, this young man’s eyes were like the shooting star across the sky. There was a very strong aura and deterrent force in them.The two forces were staring each other down.There was a veranda between them and a bronze cauldron.The rain splattered into the bronze cauldron and overflowed. It sounded as if someone was frying beans. It was extremely loud.Jay’s face was gloomy. He stared at the uninvited guest who appeared in his courtyard out of nowhere and said frigidly, “Who are you? How dare you barge into my courtyard? You’re pretty ballsy.”Jay was not an idiot. These uninvited guests just barged in
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
Yule felt very smug after seeing everyone’s reactions. Clearly, these people could only rely on him to take care of this problem. “Since you’re so curious, let me explain. Indeed, someone is controlling the situation behind the scenes. She can easily control the beasts with her ability. However, I don’t know the woman’s identity. Maybe she’s a powerful being or just an ordinary person. Who knows?” Yule's subordinates were the ones who told him what they saw that day. “I know that woman’s appearance, so I know what to do. You don’t have to worry about it.” Everyone glanced at each other with a grim look, wondering if they should believe Yule. After all, Yule knew something they did not. “Hehe, I just wanted to tell you my plans, that’s all.” Yule wanted to take control of the initiative. The elders and people in charge looked worried. They knew exactly what Yule wanted. “I want a certain authority. Of course, it should be higher than my father’s limit. As you know, I’ve al
Compared to the money they earned at Deadly Arena, the accommodation fee was nothing. Therefore, many people chose to stay in the living quarters provided by Deadly Arena and thought the environment was quite good. The people of Deadly Arena knew about the crisis they were facing. Something felt wrong, so they had to pay attention to it. “Don’t you find the beasts acting strangely this time? They didn’t seem interested in our things but simply left after giving us a warning.” “Yeah, I think something is wrong too. There must be a secret behind it. We have to figure it out.” The people in charge of Deadly Arena gathered for a meeting over this major incident. Yule looked at everyone with disdain as if he thought they were worried over nothing. “The beasts obviously recognized our strength, so they backed away. Stop worrying over nothing.” Yule had always thought highly of himself and looked down on everything. Hearing this, everyone scowled and wished they could teach Yule
“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an
Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra
