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
“Are you scared?”Philip asked all of sudden.Next to him, Theo was the first one to answer him, “I strive for the utmost for Mr. Clarke!”“I will strive for the utmost for Mr. Clarke!”In an instant, the fighters in black suits behind Philip all yelled at the same time.Philip smiled and threw away his cigarette butt. It landed into the bronze cauldron.Crash!A sudden clap of thunder!Jay roared, “Kill them!”He did not have time to idle talk with Theo and his gang. His venues were in trouble, he had to go take a look.After that, Jay grabbed his woman and turned around. He was about to leave from the backdoor of the middle hall.There were more than 100 men inside and outside. Even if Theo was so powerful and had his men waiting outside, it would still be futile.Jay was not bothered by this. It was just a few lives.If they were to start something, he would not mind charging to Riverdale and taking over Theo’s territories.When the time came, with the South River Dist
Jay snorted and said, “You brassy kid, do you know who’s behind the Andersons?”The Andersons.That was the number one family in the South River District!They had more than ten billion in assets!The person in charge of the Andersons, Greg Anderson, knew a lot of the upper management of South River S. His connections and status were beyond one’s imagination.Plus, a huge family was supporting the Andersons.Jay was unworthy to look up to such a huge family.They were too powerful!“No matter who’s behind the Andersons, I’ll destroy them.”Philip said calmly, “Don’t forget how your fraternity crumbled in a matter of seconds when it got into my hands. When Jay heard this, his body shook.Exactly!In the face of this young man, the fraternity crumbled in seconds!Jay’s eyes widened at this. He glared at Philip angrily and yelled, “Who are you? Who the hell are you?”He had been in this field for more than 20 years and finally became the monopoly he was today. However, a na
Stab!The dagger stabbed right into Noah’s shoulder. With a crack, it broke his scapula!Then, Philip started a video call and recorded this to Greg.“Ah! Dad, save me! Dad!”Greg stood in the gigantic hall of the villa and watched as his son screamed while covered in blood. His entire body was tense as he yelled angrily, “Stop it! What do you want?”After he said that, Vivian, who had been standing there quietly for some time, said coldly, “Greg, don’t forget Madam Wallis’ order.”Greg was on the brink of an eruption. However, when he heard the words ‘Madam Wallis’, he had to control his anger. He looked at the video and said in a deep voice, “I’ll give you one billion. Let my son go and leave the South River District with your people. The Andersons will never step foot into Riverdale and all of our properties in Riverdale will also belong to you!”That was Greg’s condition, but at the same time, it was also Madam Wallis’ order.He was slicing his flesh.This would cost at le
Greg walked out of the villa. He came to the entrance while being heavily protected by his fighters.The smell of rain and soil lingered in the air.The entire Anderson family’s villa was somber. Its atmosphere was extremely intense.Greg looked at the 100 plus people behind Philip. They were standing in an orderly fashion and did not look like people who were hired randomly.However, Greg was not afraid. This was the South River District. This was his territory!Plus, this was the Andersons’ villa. It was the symbol of the entire South River District.The entire villa was built on a hill. There was another symbolic building in the villa, the Andersons’ shrine.At nighttime, the lights of the shrine could be seen from tens of miles away!Even normal civilians would stop and mourn for a few seconds when they passed by the Andersons’ shrine. That was their way of paying respect to the Anderson family.The reason was that the Anderson family was the savior of the South River Dist
When Philip said that, he lifted his eyebrow and looked at Greg opposite him.Everyone understood what Philip meant. He wanted to get back at Greg in the Andersons’ villa!Greg’s face turned red and purple from holding himself back. His son was in Philip’s hands, so he did not dare to be impulsive.“Noah, no!”Greg roared.Woosh!However, in the next second, a dagger appeared in Philip’s hand.Stab!He lifted the dagger and dropped it onto the ground next to Noah’s ear.In a blink of an eye, one of Noah’s ears was cut off.“Ah!”A blood-curdling scream. Noah clutched his bloody ear and got up challengingly without a second thought. He knelt in front of Philip and kept on kowtowing. He began to plead. “Please don’t kill me. Don’t kill me. I’m kowtowing to you…”Thud, thud, thud!The sounds of his forehead against the ground hammered on everyone’s hearts. Especially when it got into the ears of Greg and the 100 plus fighters who were working for the Anderson family. They sou
It happened while everyone was in a state of shock.Boom!Another loud noise.The villa behind Greg was razed to the ground, and it fell into a sea of flames!The impact of this explosion threw everyone backward.At that moment, half of Greg’s men were injured by the impact of the explosion.Some of them even became ashes as they were standing too close to the villa.However, they deserved this. They were all fugitives. Their dreadful crimes would still rankle even after they were dead.Greg and his men were completely stunned.This was happening too suddenly. Plus, the sea of flames was still sending shockwaves into their hearts.This was too shocking!Too horrifying!At the same time, there was a low rumble coming from the sky among the heavy smoke. It came from afar and slowly got closer. Five military helicopters sped toward the air above the Andersons’ villa.Then, they dove down with the head of the helicopter pointing downward and circled a few times above the villa
“Hehe, I’ll obey whether you want to kill me or skin me alive. There’s no need to humiliate me.”Greg chuckled coldly. He looked as if he was not afraid of death.On his side, Noah was like a dog. He crawled in front of Philip and kowtowed. He begged Philip. “Master Clarke, Master Clarke, please let me go. I was wrong. I’m already like this, I’m already a useless man. Please spare me. I’m willing to work for you.”“Noah!”Looking at Noah being craven and cowardly, a macho man like Greg started sobbing in regret.He could never imagine his son being so cowardly.The Andersons’ dynasty finally came to an end.Philip looked at Noah who was begging him continuously and Greg who was crying tears of remorse. Then, he shook his head helplessly.If Greg had not chosen the wrong person, the Andersons would not end up like this.This was a man who could do great things. Unfortunately, the God of Destiny made fools of the people.Philip turned around and looked at Theo behind him. He sa
“This tea is simply amazing. I’m surprised that Philip is lucky enough to find this treasure!” “By the way, why is Philip alone? Where's that rabbit?” Everyone looked around but saw no signs of the rabbit and had to give up. In the end, only a mouthful of tea was left in the pot. After much deliberation, they decided to give it to the patriarch. After all, it was a rare treasure! They quickly tied Philip up. Once Philip lost his freedom, they had nothing to worry about. They wanted to take credit for their finding and let the family know about this rare treasure.… Meanwhile, Cameron was in his room, thinking about how to carry out the competition. He had just finished talking with Ronan and was in a good mood. He was surprised by Ronan’s attitude. Ronan did not hold a grudge against them and desperately wanted to join their family, which was simply too good to be true. More importantly, Ronan was strong enough to win the competition for them. Cameron did not care whet
At this moment, Philip noticed something unusual and realized that someone had sneaked into his yard. He was amused that someone dared to mess with him. “Surround this area while I poison him. After he’s dead, don’t forget to bring the rabbit along with us. It’s best if we can figure out the rabbit’s secret. If not, just silence the rabbit too!” The person taking the lead explained the plan. He was none other than Sadie’s husband. For the sake of his position in the family and his son, he had to take the risk. Philip was enjoying his premium spiritual tea, and that fragrance could not be concealed at all. Very soon, the intruders smelled the fragrance and followed their noses to find the source. “Do you smell something fragrant? I feel that my strength has improved after a whiff of this smell!” “I feel refreshed with just one whiff as if my ailment has been relieved. That ailment has been bothering me for years. This is amazing!” Everyone was excited as they tracked the s
Cameron never thought that he would lose to a rabbit in an argument. After a brief silence, he finally decided to ignore the matter for the time being. Since the treasures were in Rabbit’s hands, he had to talk to Ronan about the competition. “Ronan, come with me. I want to tell you about the competition. Your friend can stay. We’ll treat him with the utmost courtesy!” Cameron invited Ronan kindly while signaling to everyone. As long as Ronan was not around, they could attack and even kill Philip on the spot. Philip would be useless once they figured out Rabbit’s secret. If Ronan asked, they could say that Philip decided to leave. Anyway, they had all sorts of excuses to take care of this. Ronan glanced at Philip and walked to the conference hall. Ronan knew that he had to deal with these people himself. Philip was only here to give him courage. Philip gave him a reassuring look and returned to the house. He was interested in the competition, so he wanted to figure out
“Are you talking about this rabbit? He’s not my pet. He belongs to my friend.” Ronan shrugged. He wanted such a pet, but he was not good enough. Hearing that, Cameron's face turned pale. Although the rabbit was an additional benefit, he never thought that he would fail to get it. Cameron glared at Philip. He did not have a good impression of Philip. Philip looked like a troublemaker. He suspected that Philip had influenced Ronan into making things difficult for them. Cameron wanted to drive Philip away, but Ronan abruptly said that this matter was related to Philip. Before he could weigh the pros and cons, Cameron decided to hide his emotions. At least, he could not reveal his dislike for Philip. “I see. Your friend seems like a casual practitioner. Why don't he consider joining our family? For your sake, I can give him the same treatment and allow the two of you to take part in the competition as representatives of the family. I believe you’ll do your best and won’t let me
At this time, Rabbit hopped to Philip's side. “Philip, I was out for a walk yesterday and heard some rumors. They’ll be holding a competition among the humans soon, and all major families and forces will send some contestants for the fight. “Either a family or a force that is in charge of an area can join the competition. I heard that the Claude family is taking part.” Hearing this, and combined with their reaction, Philip guessed something. They probably wanted to trick Ronan into participating in the competition, which was why they were approaching him so enthusiastically. “There’s more.” Rabbit smiled and leaned forward, clearly asking for a beating. Philip saw Rabbit’s reaction and hit his face. “Just spit it out. Stop messing around!” Rabbit chuckled and said, “I heard that the Claude family is negotiating a business deal, and the prerequisite is that Ronan must participate in the competition and win first place. Although I don't know why, that’s the only condition the
Everyone was dumbfounded. No one thought that Ronan would take action without paying any heed to them. Cameron panicked and ordered his men to stop Ronan, “Guards, take action! You have to stop Ronan!” His face turned pale, and he wished that the guards could kill Ronan. However, he suddenly remembered the deal between the businessman and himself. “Wait, don’t kill him. I want him alive. I need him for something important!” Cameron shouted nervously as if he was sure that his guards would defeat Ronan. Other than the guards, other family members also stepped forward. They wanted to show off their strength. Seeing this, Philip waved to Ronan. He would take action if required. Ronan waved his hand indifferently in response. He did not need Philip’s help for now. He was strong enough to take care of it. At this time, Rabbit appeared drowsily. Rabbit led a carefree life, and Philip always let him be, so he was an idle rabbit. After Cameron and the others saw Rabbit, their e
Ronan became more confident after the chat with Philip. If anyone dared to mess with him, he would not hesitate to teach them a good lesson. Cameron looked around but did not see Rabbit. He was worried but went straight to the point. “My child, after all these years, have you finally decided to return to the family?” Cameron smiled as he attempted the emotional approach as if Ronan had lived outside over the years because of his own decision. Hearing that, Ronan coughed and nearly threw up. Cameron was really good at blaming him. “What do you mean? Did I ask you to kick me out of the house?” Ronan's eyes flashed with anger. As a weak and powerless child back then, he was kicked out of the house right after his mother’s death. That feeling was really humiliating. All his grievances over the years exploded at this point. He could not tolerate these hypocritical people anymore. Cameron noticed Ronan’s reaction and knew that it was bad. This matter was out of his control. Ronan
“Since you've accepted my things, you should…” Cameron rubbed his hands excitedly, looking at Rabbit smugly and expectantly. His men looked at Rabbit in delight. It would be great if they could get storage space. Rabbit shook his head in disdain. “What are you thinking? Do you think you’re worthy of me? You don’t even have a measly storage space. Who are you to bargain with me?” Rabbit kicked the nearest person away. “Don’t bother me again or that’ll be your outcome!” He hopped back into the house. He was not afraid that they would mess with him. Cameron was shocked that Rabbit would go back on his word after taking their things. He was furious. Those were the treasures of the family. It would be a disaster if they lost them. However, it was clearly not the right time to dwell on it. Cameron decided to talk to Rabbit again tomorrow. He had to talk to Ronan anyway. It would be best if he could fool them. “Let’s get some rest for the night and talk about it tomorrow morning
Cameron persuaded Rabbit excitedly. In his opinion, he was halfway to success. Rabbit nodded. “Give me what you have for now. At least show me your sincerity. You should know that the guy inside offered me a high price!” Rabbit fooled Cameron. He wanted to know what Cameron could come up with. Just crystals alone would be a letdown. Hearing that, Cameron waved to his men, signaling them to take out all the good things from the warehouse, at least to fool Rabbit for the time being. His men reluctantly went to the warehouse and took out all the treasures they had collected. Anyway, it was just for show and would not really be given to the rabbit, so they did not object. It would be a great deal if these treasures could attract a guardian beast. Rabbit nodded with satisfaction at these things. He waved his hand, and everything vanished from those people’s hands. Everyone was shocked and wondered what was going on. There was no such thing as storage space in this world. They ha
