The First Heir Chapter 5004
Over the years, Scarlet's rapid promotions and salary increments were due to her charm technique. She started as an ordinary store attendant and was now the person in charge of Bijou Parlor in Orbit City. Scarlet had poured all her efforts into her career. Other than socializing with wealthy people, Scarlet was also proficient in the art of charm, which was not something anyone could learn. Such a powerful technique required the right conditions and individual attributes. Scarlet was quite pretty and had a good talent for practice. She learned the art of charm by chance. Unexpectedly, Scarlet successfully reached the pinnacle of her life with it. Scarlet frequently used her charms in Bijou Parlor and had never failed. No matter how difficult the customer was, Scarlet could easily persuade them to buy things and leave obediently. Scarlet’s initial plan was to charm Philip and get more information about his pill, but Philip did not fall for her trick. The charm techniqu

Upon Philip’s return, he glanced at the clock in the room. He had been there for several hours, but it had only been an hour here. Philip was excited at this discovery for getting such a big advantage. If the iron door had not been so rusty, he would have kissed it already. Philip quickly made plans to develop in the foreign land. His idea was to transfer his forces gradually. There were too many enemies in the ancestral land, and these ignorant people had no idea that a bigger world existed out there. Moving his people was the best option. With that security door in hand, Philip could travel whenever he wanted. Philip was thinking about his upcoming plans.…At the same time, Figo went home in a huff. Although Figo had taken advantage of Scarlet, he still felt unhappy about being humiliated by Philip. On the way home, he started crying. Figo returned home with tears in his eyes and sought out his mother for her comfort. He had never suffered such a great inju

“Don’t cry, my darling. Rest assured that I’ll seek justice for you. Even if the mayor’s son bullied you, I’ll definitely kick up a big fuss!” Kimberly had always been an unreasonable shrew and would do anything for her son. The Larson family was the wealthiest in Orbit City and had produced several practice talents in the imperial city. Even the mayor of Orbit City dared not mess with them. If anything happened, the mayor could only wallow in anger. The mayor was very glad that his wife gave birth to a son instead of a beautiful daughter. Otherwise, his daughter might be taken by that crazy Figo by force. Figo quickly stopped crying under his mother’s comfort and told her about being bullied by Philip. Kimberly scowled and said, “I can’t believe that an outsider dares to bully my son. He must be an ignorant villager who doesn't know how powerful our Larson family is! Don’t worry, my darling. I won’t let you suffer this injustice. If you see him again, let me know. I’ll a

“Let’s talk about it after we take care of Philip. We need to make some plans!” Kimberly said to Figo off-handedly. Figo was anxious and wanted to say something, but Kimberly glared daggers at him, so he shut up. It would do him no good to anger his mother. If she stopped giving him pocket money, he would have no money to spend on Scarlet. He had to attend Scarlet's auction in three days. Meanwhile, many people were gathered at the meeting room in Philip’s villa. They were elite figures in the villa and Philip’s most trusted comrades. Everyone expressed their desire to visit the foreign land after learning about it, including Wynn. “Is it the same place you went before?” Wynn was very smart and quickly figured out the key points in Philip’s brief introduction. Philip nodded and said, “Yes and no. This continent is divided into two areas. I went to the other area before, while this area is relatively easier. The place I went to before was very dangerous, full of sche

Montel had told everyone this prediction before Philip returned. Everyone wondered what to do. No one knew what this crisis was. Even with the Zucker family’s wisdom, they only found an estimated date after sacrificing many years of practice. Everyone was worried about facing this unknown fear. “Don’t worry. Since the date is June 17, we have enough time to prepare for it.” Philip felt that this time was not enough, but with the time difference between the foreign land and the ancestral land, it could buy them some time. Philip quickly decided. After some instructions, he took Aslan to the Guzo Continent. Aslan immediately felt the abundant energy. “Philip, this place is really different. Not even the ancestral land after energy was revived can compare to this!” Philip nodded. It was indeed the case. As a place exclusive for practice, they would get twice the result with half the effort here. “However, the people in this place aren’t that easy to deal with. After
The First Heir Chapter 5009
Although Kimberly was unhappy about her son’s suggestion, she did not expect Figo to bring Scarlet back so quickly. Seeing this elegant and beautiful woman, Kimberly did not feel good about it. Kimberly had always treated her son as a treasure, so she could hardly accept his relationship with a beautiful woman. “Hello, Mrs. Larson,” Scarlet greeted Kimberly gently. She could feel Kimberly’s hostility toward her. At this moment, Scarlet resented the fact that her charm was only effective on men. If her charm had the same effect on a woman, Scarlet did not have to worry about this woman’s objections. Kimberly was just an ordinary and weak practitioner who could hardly withstand her attack. If this trick worked on women, Kimberly would be more subservient than Figo. Scarlet could only play the humble act and hope to reduce Kimberly’s hostility. As an employee of Bijou Parlor, Scarlet was a diplomatic person. Kimberly felt much better at Scarlet’s humble attitude. Sin
The First Heir Chapter 5010
Scarlet was very worried that she would lose such a big customer if Figo persisted. The auction would be held in three days. Everything would be over if she offended Figo at this time. Figo thought that Scarlet was just being modest and quickly stepped in to put in a good word for her. In Figo’s opinion, they were madly in love with each other. After chatting pretentiously for a while, Scarlet finally left. Kimberly and Figo were quite pleased with the meeting. Over the years, Kimberly had never seen such a humble woman. Kimberly was happy that Scarlet was aware of her humble background and maintained this inferior attitude throughout the whole process. Kimberly hoped that this humbleness could boost her sense of superiority. No matter what, she had to be the queen of this household. “I can consider this matter for the time being, but the actual outcome will depend on Scarlet’s performance. If I’m not happy with her, you can forget about it,” Kimberly said loftily bef
The First Heir Chapter 5011
The attendants saw Aslan’s reaction and felt a little confused. This was the first time they saw this reaction after working here for many years. Other onlookers seemed unhappy at this big guy’s pretentiousness. Obviously, this guy was belittling the products because he could not afford them. “How annoying.” At this time, Scarlet grumbled as she returned to Bijou Parlor. She wished she could smack the high and mighty look off Kimberly’s face. As the person in charge of Bijou Parlor, everyone always adopted a humble attitude in front of her. However, that ignorant and ridiculous woman dared to humiliate her like this. If not for her good upbringing, Scarlet would have killed her already. “If I ever see that woman alone, I’ll cut her into pieces!” Scarlet mumbled angrily as she walked. As soon as she entered the door, Scarlet saw a handsome figure. It was none other than Philip, who had been on her mind all day. Scarlet wanted to look for Philip, but he simply vanis

“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
The First Heir Chapter 6305
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
The First Heir Chapter 6303
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
The First Heir Chapter 6301
“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 First Heir Chapter 6300
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
The First Heir Chapter 6299
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
The First Heir Chapter 6298
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
