Nevertheless, Philip knew no fear as he looked at Canon frostily.Right now, Canon's limbs had been completely shattered. He wept tragically and pleaded for mercy, "Phil, cousin, please don't kill me! I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."He was scared of dying!Canon had never expected to be so close to death one day.Philip was a demon for ignoring the family rules and Giada's Sovereignty Seal."Kill you?"Philip chuckled coldly. "I won't kill you. I’ll make you live the rest of your life as trash, begging on the streets. I want you to live every minute and every second in regret and pain!”With that, he sneered, “Throw him onto the streets and make sure he can only beg for a living. He must never take a single step out of Riverdale!”“Yes, sir!”Theo nodded.After that, Philip turned to Gerard and continued, “Do you know what your biggest mistake was, Great-uncle? It was thinking that I was nothing in the seven years since I left the family, thinking that I can’t do anything to you. W
While Jean taunted the guards, he repeatedly turned around to show off to his cousins.“C’mon! Shoot me if you have the balls!”Jean was drunk and fearless right now, pointing to his head as he challenged the guards.The captain in charge had already raised his gun and was looking through his scope. “We received orders to remove Gerard Clarke’s family branch from Arcadia. Get down on the ground and put your hands behind your head! If you disobey, we will shoot to kill!”Shoot to kill?!His declaration made the young branch family heirs and heiresses turn pale.Jean was taken aback too, but then he laughed wildly. “Hey hey hey, have those helmets given you guys concussions or something? The nerve of you to say something like that! You want to banish our family?”“Yeah, what a joke! Know your place, how dare you address your masters like that!”“You’re just a pack of guard dogs, remember that!”“Notify the branch family guards, chase them out of here!”The young masters and lad
Graham Clarke’s branch family was in a complete uproar!Soon after Graham gave his orders, another servant rushed into the hall and fell on their knees, weeping, “Old Master Graham! OId Master Gerard and Young Master have been grievously wounded and rendered immobile!”Whoosh!This piece of tragic news once more took Graham off-guard. He lost his balance and fell back onto his armchair, fighting to catch his breath!He only recovered slightly when a servant hurriedly offered him some medicine. “That b*stard, that little b*stard! Why do we have such an unfilial son in our ranks! The main family is doomed, I say, doomed!”Graham cried at the top of his lungs and then slowly struggled to his feet like a man twice his age. He leaned on his black dragon cane and smashed it into the marble floor, barking, “Heed my orders! Gather all of our forces immediately and storm the main family! I will go to the enforcement hall now and request their intervention. We must make that useless brat
“How are the branch families reacting?”“The head of the branch family already brought his men over, but the Fourth Madam persuaded him to leave. The head of the enforcement hall should be here soon too. After this, members of the branch families and enforcement hall will probably keep streaming into Riverdale to trouble Young Master Philip. After all, he did go too far this time. He ignored the rules and even…”Cough cough.There was a bout of coughing, followed by slightly quiet panting.“I see. I’ll leave the matters on the island to the Fourth Madam for now. You… Cough cough, go to Fernvale and convey this message…”Back at Riverdale, at First Palace of Longford Park.Philip looked at Giada coldly, approaching her one step at a time.Right now, Vivian was like a feral kitten with all her hackles up, protecting Giada with her life.“Do you dare get in my way?”Philip said icily, his gaze completely devoid of warmth!Vivian was beyond surprised!She always thought Philip w
Martha was terrified. Philip’s gaze was eerie, looking directly at her.What did he mean by that?“I hope you watch your step from now on.”Philip said coldly before turning and leaving First Palace. He got into Theo’s car and headed for the hospital.Now Martha was standing along in the villa, watching in a fluster as the crowd dispersed.That damned Philip, what was he being so high-and-mighty for?What did they even mean by the main and branch families?Martha’s chest felt tight with fear and panic.Philip’s last words to her gave her an especially inexplicable feeling.Was it a warning?Meanwhile, Philip arrived at the hospital and immediately ran to the wards. When he saw Wynn lying in bed and resting, his heart finally settled back in his chest.He sat on the side of the bed and gently touched Wynn’s fair forehead. The wound on her face was still so gruesome to behold.That cursed branch family!The flames of rage still burned in Philip’s chest.Wynn opened her eyes
That was just what Uncle Tim was like. Bold and decisive, just like an ancient military general.If that had not happened back then, Uncle Tim’s daughter would probably be about Philip’s age by now.To be honest, Philip rather missed his cousin.Was that brat Ethan Clarke doing well over there? Philip could not help but wonder.He hoped Ethan could pull through.After all, Philip had survived that place himself. Everyone in there was a genius in their own rights, and they had a really good way with words too.Philip hoped that the boy could shake off his terrible spoiled-brat attitude and reemerge a changed man.After he stayed at the hospital for a while, Philip stood up, about to go back to the villa and get something.On the way, though, he suddenly sensed something amiss.Philip paused and abruptly looked behind him. There were two blindingly bright lights coming right at him at breakneck speeds!The lights grew brighter and brighter. Anyone else would be temporarily blin
The scantily-dressed Vivi was quite animated. “I finally met you in person! You’re pretty good-looking, hehe.”Philip was exasperated, his face twitching. “We just happen to have the same name. I’m nowhere near that impressive.”Well, f*ck!Philip had forgotten all about that.Chase Fisher, huh?From the Dragonstone Mountain Race Course back then, huh…Vivi pouted. “So you’re not him? Aww, what a bummer.”Philip was rather flabbergasted. “Aren’t you worried I’ll do something to you, gorgeous?”“Nah, what’s the point of worrying? Now that I’ve seen what you’re capable of, it’s not like I can stop you if you do want to do anything to me.”Vivi said with a shrug, as though she was truly not worried about Philip at all.The black car behind them kept chasing Vivi’s car, but they just could not close the distance, perhaps due to the undeniable difference in the two cars’ specs!“F*cker! Is he a motherf*cking superman? How did he worm in there?”The driver of the black car could
Vivi slammed the accelerator and said angrily, “You jerk!”The men in the black car behind them did not expect Philip to pull that either, but it was too late by the time they tried to stop!More than ten armed cops rushed out of the station and surrounded both cars!Vivi pouted and crossed her arms in front of her chest, getting out of her car in a huff. She made a call and looked in the direction Philip had disappeared into, frowning as she muttered, “Just you wait, I’ll definitely find you!”The three would-be assassins were in much worse shape. They were dragged out of the car and pinned onto the ground, babbling in Thai.As for Philip, he managed to shake them all off and saunter back to the villa, whistling away.…At the same time, in a fancy presidential suite somewhere in Capital City…“Damn it! Those three are useless! They couldn’t even capture one man!”Marcus Quaid threw a fit, his expression stormy as he stood before the floor-to-ceiling window. He looked at the
If Philip was at fault, Lincoln had nothing to say. However, if Hogster was the one who had caused all the trouble, he would not spare them. “I’ll get to the bottom of this. Now, tell me what’s going on with Dennis. Based on my understanding of him, he wouldn't betray the guild for no reason. He must have a reason for doing this!” Neither of them could explain what happened to Dennis. They could only say that humans were fickle. After all, they could not figure it out either. The person at fault would never admit their fault. Alain did not think that he was biased or thought that what he had done was excessive. He simply thought that Dennis looked down on him, which was why he decided to leave. Now that he was gone, Alain could say whatever he wanted, and Dennis could not defend himself. Thinking of this, Alain was very excited. He began to defame Dennis and shifted the attention away from him and his son. Lincoln scowled as he listened. Then, he returned to his room and summ
Alain was helpless. Although he had a lot to say, he could not do anything in front of Lincoln. Lincoln was stronger than him in every aspect, a force to be reckoned with. He was not someone Alain could deal with. Alain looked at Lincoln awkwardly. He wanted to appease his anger but did not know what to say. “You need to explain this to me. Why did Dennis leave? And I want to know why the guild’s reputation has become so bad. Did you do something wrong?”Lincoln heard that Dennis had been expelled and could no longer stay in the guild. Many people supported Dennis, so they were upset with Alain and tried to defame him. Hearing that, Alain knew that someone must have been talking behind his back, but he did not dare to lose his temper. He forced a smile and looked at Lincoln in a flattering manner. Before he could find an excuse, Hogster rushed over excitedly and said to his father, “Father, guess what I did to Philip? Hehe!” Hogster recounted his handiwork smugly without p
It had been years since the grandmaster went into seclusion for practice. He was not concerned about power. He once mentioned that he would not leave his seclusion unless he reached the top. Hence, no one expected to see him. “Grandmaster, you appeared at the right time. We would've been in trouble if you didn't come out!” “That’s right. Everyone is bullying us. Now that you’re out, you can help us.” Everyone complained about their grievances, feeling sorry for themselves. The Hexa Guild was in trouble, and they faced various problems too. All the major guilds were keeping a close eye on the Hexa Guild, waiting to see them make a fool of themselves. The Celestial Palace planned to destroy the Hexa Guild instead of letting them off. They could not accept the initial setup, so they decided to erase the Hexa Guild from existence. Hence, the Hexa Guild had been under great pressure, with the members wishing that someone could help them. Unexpectedly, a strong expert appeared.
Ronan was his buddy, and his wife's reputation was at stake. Philip could not stand idly by. He had to help. Jamie was very fast at ordering his people to make the matter public. No one expected another dramatic turn of events. Everyone thought that the young lady of the Celestial Palace was an unchaste woman for making that decision. Unexpectedly, the Celestial Palace found a way to solve the side effects of their technique. All the major guilds were in trepidation. Although the Celestial Palace’s technique was very powerful, the side effects reduced its allure. Now that that problem was solved, everything was different. On top of that, the holy maiden and other members of the guild showed their appearance in public. Regardless of gender, everyone was beautiful without any markings on their faces. After seeing this scene, everyone knew that the Celestial Palace was about to make a comeback. Carlos was very excited and thought that Vanna was a lucky star to bring so many
After reading the letter, Alain trembled in anger, shocked that two of his strongest members would choose to leave the guild at such a critical time. Their departure was no joke. The guild could lose the guild competition at any minute! Dennis and Louis were very strong and could hold down the fort in the competition. With their departure, Alain would have fewer people to count on, and things might end up a mess. He was furious about their abrupt departure. “I need to capture Dennis. How dare he betray us?!” Alain was very upset. As a traitor, Dennis had to be dealt with. The news quickly spread, and many members found out that Dennis had chosen to leave the guild. The other elders also wondered what they should do. They knew that Dennis was a smart man and was good at judging the situation. Choosing to leave was a sign of a change to come. Everyone had their own thoughts and a rough guess about what was going on. Alain's actions not only caused an uproar but also made
A young man about the same age as him was so talented. Could anyone not be jealous? However, Louis was truly not jealous. He just wanted to learn from Philip. If Philip was really that strong, he would obey. Although Louis had a high status in the guild, he was not highly valued. That useless loser was given priority when it came to most of the resources, which made Louis upset. By right, resources should be allocated to talented people, but things were different because Hogster had a guild leader for a father. Thinking of this, Louis smiled at Philip expectantly. If Philip was worth following, he would leave the Hexa Guild without hesitation. “I want to apologize for offending you earlier. I also want to follow you, but I don’t know if I’m good enough. If you won’t consider me, I hope you can give my son a chance. He’s pretty talented.” Dennis was very polite as he apologized to Philip. Philip was surprised and thought that Dennis was quite nice. Philip invited them insi
Dennis and Louis quickly arrived at the door and knocked nervously. Rabbit opened the door this time. He did not expect to see Dennis again. He thought Dennis was here to cause trouble, so he scowled. “Why are you here again, old man? Do you want to cause more trouble for us? You’d better think twice or I’m going to get angry!” Rabbit said fiercely. Rabbit easily crushed them earlier, so they would not forget about their miserable defeat so quickly. Louis was embarrassed to hear that this rabbit had defeated his father. He had always thought that Dennis was very powerful and would not lose to a younger person no matter what. Unexpectedly, Dennis was not only defeated but lost miserably too. Louis keenly perceived that this talking rabbit was Philip’s pet and became excited. If Philip's pet was so powerful, Philip should be better. Thinking of this, he was excited and wanted to see Philip immediately. Rabbit stared at Dennis and Louis, wondering what they were up to. Denni
Celeste was surprised to see that Esther had restored her appearance. She had just seen Esther wearing a veil to cover her ugly face when they first met earlier. “Amazing! You look beautiful all of a sudden,” Celeste praised Esther from the bottom of her heart. Celeste did not know how it happened, but there had to be a reason for it. Esther smiled at Celeste. “Now that I’m beautiful, I can fully focus on taking care of Philip. Don’t worry, I won’t be worse than you.” Hearing that, Celeste was puzzled by Esther’s aggression. While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, an uninvited guest turned up at the door. It was none other than Dennis of the Hexa Guild. Dennis was not alone as he had brought his son along with him. His son was quite talented and always listened to his father's opinions. After all, he knew that he would not be where he was without his father’s guidance, and most of his father’s decisions were correct. “Father, are you sure we should leave the guild
Esther never thought that her curse could be lifted so quickly. More importantly, Esther found that all the negative energy in her body had disappeared. She took off her veil and looked at them with her true appearance. Esther was beautiful by nature, but the nasty technique had impacted her self-esteem. Now that she had regained her appearance, Esther’s confidence returned as well. “Wonderful! This technique is the perfect improved version! With this technique, our members can practice like any normal person without worrying about their appearance. Other guilds can’t kick a fuss over it or try to mess with us again!” Jamie was ecstatic and abruptly remembered a very important question. “By the way, what’s the deal with this technique? Did someone give it to you?” Jamie had to get to the bottom of it. It was very important. He would be uneasy if he did not figure out the situation. “Philip gave it to me. I don't know how he got our technique, but he’s quite good at studying
