Philip shrugged and reminded, saying, “Juan Parker, I advise you to keep a low profile.” “Why do you care? Philip, I used to treat you as my friend, but from now on, I’m coming at you.” Juan was furious. Philip was already bankrupt, so how could he still act like this? What right did he have? A well-known wastrel was actually the young master of Clarke Group. Back then, when Juan first found out about it, he was also shocked. However, it was different now. He had no fear! Philip Clarke would forever be rubbish! Moreover, with so many people here today, he refused to believe that Philip would dare to do anything to him. Philip frowned and said coldly, “Juan, where did you get the courage to talk to me in such a manner? From the person behind you? Was the last beating not enough for you?” Upon hearing this, Juan subconsciously stepped back and yelled a few words along the lines of, “Just you wait, I’ll deal with you later!” Then, he entered the hotel lobby with his fe
Bang! At the pivotal moment, someone kicked the toilet door open from outside! Philip rushed in, and the huge destructive power shocked the man so much that he faltered for a split second. In these few seconds, Philip had already stood in front of him, lifted his foot, and kicked out! Bam! Philip kicked the man's abdomen viciously! It was very straightforward and brutal without any hesitation at all! Philip’s kick was not light. The man curled up in a fetal position and flew out, crashing into the wooden door of the toilet cubicle! Boom! The door was directly knocked down by a huge impact! That man remained there and could not move for a while! Wynn was so frightened that she squatted on the ground, holding her head and not daring to look. When she finally noticed the familiar figure standing in front of her, she threw herself directly into Philip's arms, shaking all over! “Phil, I’m so scared!” Wynn cried in panic. If not for Philip, the outcome was unimaginabl
Philip was furious! The critters hiding in the dark were really difficult to guard against. Wynn was startled. He could still laugh at this time. Feeling that he could not breathe at all, the man opened his mouth, but with that, the cold water would rush into his mouth and belly! He could not take it anymore. He felt that he was almost dying. His lungs were extremely hypoxic, and his entire head was buzzing and dizzy! “I’ll give you one last chance! Are you going to talk or not?” Philip shouted condescendingly. The man tapped the toilet desperately, and Philip raised his foot. Then, he grabbed him by the head, lifted him out, and shoved him heavily to the ground! The man was drenched and limp on the ground, coughing and breathing desperately. His entire face was purple! “Speak!” Philip’s face was ominous. “It’s… Jaden Larson from the Larson family of Fernvale…” Philip frowned and looked up at Wynn. Wynn also looked at Philip in surprise. Who was Jaden Larson? Wy
“Young Master Hane, that’s Philip Clarke. He’s the one who beat your brother up. It just so happens that he’s also in attendance for tonight’s party. Would you like to find someone to teach him a lesson?”Juan fanned the flames and looked at Philip not far away with unconcealed hatred in his eyes. He said, “Moreover, he’s also a stumbling block for our cooperation this time. As long as he’s around, it’ll be difficult for our cooperation to proceed.” Francis nodded silently, already shifting his gaze from Wynn's graceful back to the smiling Philip. That was the man? He was the person who beat his brother up violently in public? He truly wondered if he should hate him or thank him instead. Otherwise, he would not have the opportunity to walk into the power center of the Hane family and formally compete with Kenneth Hane for the lead position. No one knew Francis’ thoughts at this moment, but in the outsiders’ eyes, Francis Hane, who had always been calm and majestic, was actua
Philip frowned and asked, “Kenneth Hane is your brother?” Francis nodded and said, “Yes, he is.” “What are you so happy about then?” Philip asked again. Francis was taken aback by that remark. Juan and the others behind him were also stunned. No one knew the hidden backstory about this matter, but they could obviously tell that there was some conflict between Francis and Philip. The atmosphere became awkward. It could be said that Philip was not showing any respect toward Francis, and the other party was at a loss about how to react. Francis could only chuckle with a faint smile in the corners of his eyes. He displayed a generous and elegant aura, saying, “Mr. Clarke is really good at joking. I’ve heard about what happened to my brother last time. It was his fault. I’m here to apologize on his behalf.” Philip frowned slightly. He did not expect Francis to be so tolerant and generous. However, Philip was not a fool either, so he naturally would not fall for Francis’ tric
Philip lifted his leg and kicked Francis' abdomen fiercely! Simple yet brutal, completely beyond everyone's expectations! Philip’s kick was not light and Francis flew four or five meters upside down like a kite with a broken string! In an instant, Francis knelt on the ground while clutching his violently twitching abdomen. He was retching out acid water and all the red wine he just drank! It almost looked like he was vomiting blood! It was a very dramatic scene that seemed to have happened once before! Those who attended the party were all high-ranking officials and were completely stunned. That was the second son of the Hane family. He came to Riverdale to inspect the project on behalf of the Hane family. It was an investment worth hundreds of millions at every juncture, but this Philip Clarke actually kicked him because of a minor disagreement! It was extremely crude! Moreover, the most important thing was that Philip had already beaten Kenneth last time. This time,
Francis’ face was ugly through and through. He seemed to be at a loss about how to deal with the situation. He just wanted to test the waters in advance but was now stuck between a rock and a hard place.If Francis chose to retaliate on the spot, he would be criticized by other families in Capital City. On the other hand, if he did not retaliate, the dignity of the Hane family would thoroughly be reduced to rubbish in Riverdale! Francis had his pride, but he was now facing Philip who did not play by the books! “Very well! You’re the first person to challenge the Hane family! You’ll pay for your words and actions in this incident and the last! The Hane family isn’t a small family that can easily be bullied! Philip Clarke, just you wait. After tonight, Riverdale will have no place for you!” Francis said fiercely, his eyes glittering! “Very well, I’ll wait.” Standing in front of Francis, a hint of chill could be heard in his tone. “Before that, however, I want to collect some i
Trillions of assets? Was that a joke? Wynn’s eyes widened. She looked at Philip suspiciously, stretched out her hand to touch his forehead, and chuckled lightly. “Phil, you don’t seem to be running a fever.” Philip smiled faintly, hugged Wynn’s little waist, and said, “It’s nothing. I’m just teasing.” Wynn did not say anything else but went to greet the other directors. Cynthia watched as Philip and Wynn whispered sweet nothings. She stomped her foot and left the venue. She had to find out Francis’ condition and wipe Philip’s *ss! After all, the Larson family was finding ways to cooperate with Beacon. If something happened to Philip, the cooperation would be over. It was just a minor incident, but the aftermath was quietly brewing. Half an hour later, the atmosphere of the whole reception gradually relaxed, and the guests attending the banquet began to interact. After all, the episode that happened just now had nothing to do with them. It was Beacon Group’s disgrace.
Carlos thought Philip would do something to him, but Philip simply handed him something he took out of his pocket. “Try practicing this technique.” After Philip handed him the item, he stared at Carlos, waiting for the result. Carlos was relieved to hear it. He had thought Philip was going to do something to him, but it turned out that Philip simply wanted Carlos to try a technique out. Carlos smiled and shook his head. “We can’t practice other techniques different from our own unless someone can make improvements to our existing technique. Only then do we have the chance to learn something new. But do you know how difficult it is to improve a technique?” Carlos smiled helplessly. Their people had been trying to improve their technique forever. After all, the side effects of the technique were simply annoying, but it was easier said than done. Their predecessors had been studying it for years but to no avail. They had no choice but to give up. Now, only one elder was resp
“Since she’s one of your people, she can stay, but don’t try to do anything,” Philip said. Philip glanced at the holy maiden. Before he could say anything else, something appeared in his mind. It was the technique she practiced. Philip had no idea what happened. He had merely glanced at her when her technique appeared in his mind. Although it was weird, Philip did not think it was a bad thing. Instead, he was happy. He knew that it was a special ability. Thinking of this, Philip was in a good mood. He went back to his room after excusing himself. He wanted to study the technique carefully. It would be best if he could discover something. The holy maiden watched indignantly as Philip left. Jamie knew that Celeste’s biggest advantage was her looks. She was so beautiful that the holy maiden felt the pressure. “Stay here with peace of mind and treat it as your own home. No need for formalities,” Celeste said to them with a smile as if she were the mistress of the house. Jam
Philip waved his hand. That was not what he meant. At this time, Celeste walked out of her room. She had fallen in love with cooking and always immersed herself in the kitchen, figuring out different recipes. In the past, Celeste lived alone in the gloomy forest without freedom or friends. After meeting Philip, she became more vibrant. Celeste would feel a sense of achievement whenever Philip ate the food she cooked. Seeing her, Philip greeted Celeste and introduced the visitors to her. “I don’t need a maid. I already have someone to take care of the household chores. Thank you for your kindness,” Philip said with a smile. Celeste had been doing a good job, so Philip did not think he needed another woman to take care of him. The more women around, the more trouble there would be. The holy maiden froze in surprise at the sight of such a beautiful woman around Philip. Although she was not ugly, she had to live with this ugly appearance until her marriage because of that nas
“That’s enough. Stop talking about me. You might as well think about how to deal with Hogster and the others. The Hexa Guild will definitely come after you.” Philip greeted Jamie calmly without taking the incident seriously at all. Seeing his reaction, Jamie thought that Philip was more and more unfathomable. The Hexa Guild was making a big fuss over this case. Many guilds had accepted the Hexa Guild’s gifts and now stood in opposition to the Celestial Palace. Although this matter had nothing to do with those guilds at all, they accepted the Hexa Guild's gifts in exchange for hyping the news up. It would be best if the two guilds fought. Maybe they could take advantage of the situation in the process! The other major guilds were waiting to watch the excitement too. They hoped that the Celestial Palace would be affected by this incident and it would maybe result in them losing the guild competition. Philip was also quite interested in the guild competition but was more curious
“Vanna mentioned that you enjoy drinking, so I prepared some fine wine for you.” Ronan said it so smoothly that he must have practiced it. Jamie was surprised to see Ronan taking a bottle of wine from his pocket, not at the wine itself. It proved that Ronan had a storage space. Thinking of this, Jamie felt better. Since Ronan had a storage space, he had to have a strong backing. Carlos had determined from various aspects that Ronan was a man with good character. In that case, Jamie had nothing more to worry about, and he could feel at ease again. “We’re about to hold a competition between the guilds. You can join us if you’re interested. Since you’re already part of us, you should do your best. If you can win the competition, I’ll consider officially acknowledging your identity.” Jamie seemed like a gentle and easygoing person. Ronan was excited by his words. He never dreamed that he would have the opportunity to be acknowledged. Ronan thought that he was unworthy of Vann
Jamie was startled. He never thought that someone would speak to him in this manner. With his high and mighty status, everyone spoke to him politely except Carlos. He was not used to someone treating him so frivolously. “I'm here to look for someone,” Jamie said with a smile. The rabbit meant no harm, so Jamie did not have to act like a domineering guild leader. Rabbit stepped aside. “Of course, I know you’re here to look for someone. There’s no other reason to be here otherwise. It's just a matter of whether you can see them.” Rabbit hopped away. He just wanted to see if it was a good or bad guy. After all, troublemakers would be taught a good lesson. Carlos walked out calmly with a teacup. He had fallen for the taste of tea. Philip’s tea was simply perfect. He would feel a fluctuation in his strength after drinking it. He was ecstatic at the discovery and was unwilling to return to the guild now. Taking a sip, he realized that someone familiar was standing at the door and
“I’m surprised that the Celestial Palace would be so shameless. Since they refuse to do things my way, they shouldn't blame me for doing this.” Alain decided to make good use of this incident to guilt-trip the Celestial Palace. He told his people to spread the news of the Celestial Palace to the public. All of a sudden, everyone knew that the young lady of the Celestial Palace had married another man without consent. The incident caused an uproar, and everyone was talking about it. It was one of the most explosive pieces of news in the world of practitioners. The Celestial Palace was a large guild that valued the personal conduct of their guild members. A member would be punished for doing such a thing, but their young lady had rebelliously chosen to be with a man of unknown origins. The news was all hyped up, and everyone waited to watch the excitement. Of course, the people of the Celestial Palace heard the news too. The guild leader scowled upon receiving it. He did not th
Sure enough, Alain was very angry. He stared at Dennis in disbelief, surprised at his defeat. “How did you end up losing? Is he really as strong as the rumors said? I refuse to believe that a little brat can bring you any harm!" Alain subconsciously felt that Dennis had not done his best. Alain was sure that Dennis was being overdramatic. Dennis had always been a powerful god of war. This unexpected outcome was simply impossible. Thus, he felt that Dennis had not done his best to fulfill his duty. “Although I only exchanged one move with that young man, I could easily tell his level. I could feel that he’s more talented than Hogster. I believe it’ll be a great help for us if we can take him under our wing.” Dennis was doing it for the benefit of the guild. It would be an advantage to the guild if they could get Ronan. However, his words infuriated Alain instead. He was angry at Dennis’ stupid suggestion. “Ronan is clearly not the same as us. No matter how strong he is, he
Although Dennis could not be bothered with Hogster, he had to fight for the chance to recruit Ronan. However, Ronan shook his head. “I already have Philip, so you can forget about it. So, do you still want to fight? I don't mind showing you my strength.” Ronan had simply executed a casual move just now, so it could not be considered a full-blown display of his powers. If Dennis still wanted to fight, he would oblige. Dennis shook his head. He could clearly tell that he was no match for Ronan. Although he wanted to teach Ronan a lesson, he would only end up tragically if he went ahead with it. He did not doubt that Ronan could easily crush him. “Please excuse our intrusion today.” Dennis bowed to Ronan and left without another word. He did not want to stay in this unpleasant place any longer. He was the third elder, a person of high status. Not to mention suffering an easy defeat, but he also had to apologize to the person who defeated him, which was simply woeful. The perso
