“Nothing much. I just want to see for myself what kind of person is this so-called Young Master Clarke.” Vivi said, “Hehe, you're the first man to see me wearing this while still keeping calm.” Calm? “Don’t talk to me about such useless things. A superstar like you invited me to your suite late at night. Now, you’re dressed like this just to see what kind of person I am?” Philip tried his best to shift his gaze away from Vivi. Really, she was going to be the death of him. “Well, you can say that I’m trying to get close to you, but I’m really just being curious.” Vivi said with a smile, “I’m curious to find out how you kicked the Quaid family out of Capital City and how you’re planning to deal with the Hane family. Maybe, I just want to know the location of Arcadia Island.” “You’re playing with fire! The Joo family too!” Philip’s eyes froze over! Vivi shuddered. Seeing Philip’s frosty gaze, she suddenly realized she overdid it. Moreover, she was alone in this suite. If
Philip hastily chased after her till he was outside, but after he turned a corner, there was no sign of that person.Philip searched around frantically. However, that figure seemed to have disappeared into thin air. Why? Was that Hannah? Philip grabbed his hair and felt confused. What exactly was going on? Suddenly, Cynthia appeared, and her words sounded full of meaning as she joked with him. However. She noticed that Philip seemed unwell and asked, “What’s wrong?” “Ahem.” Philip coughed drily, forced out a smile, and touched his nose as he said, “Nothing. The other party was just too enthusiastic. People who’ve returned from abroad are different indeed.” “Be careful or I’ll tell Wynn what you just said!” Cynthia glared at him contemptuously. “I’ve sent your wife home safely. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back too.” Cynthia turned around and looked suspiciously at Philip again. “Are you really okay? I can’t help feeling that you’re troubled by somethi
Unexpectedly, he had not heard about this person for several years. It turned out he was actually in Riverdale! No wonder the old master was so concerned about him and even told Vivi to go there in person. “Ash, bring a team and station yourselves in Riverdale. Monitor the movements of Philip Clarke and Beacon Group closely,” Ivan instructed before he got up and left the gym. Philip Clarke, he had finally returned! He looked forward to the day they would meet! Back to Philip. He had just returned to the villa. In the living room, he saw Martha sitting upright, and Wynn, sitting beside her. She was making eyes at Philip with a look of helplessness. “Philip, you’re back already?” Martha looked all puffed up with the certificate of property ownership on the table. She said coldly, “Since Wynnie is here tonight too, you must give me an explanation about this and add my name again. Otherwise, you don’t have to return to this house any longer. I’ll move out together with Wynnie
Philip was taken aback when he heard those words! “How is it? Is she still alive?” Philip asked. “Young Master, I re-investigated the information about Young Miss and found that it was manipulated. I haven't found out who this person is, but what can be confirmed is that the lady is likely to be alive,” Rick said. Still alive! Philip’s eyes turned moist. After so many years, he had been living in self-guilt. Now that he heard the news, even if his heart was hardened with resolve, he would inevitably be excited! “Check it out! Find out to the end! No matter who stands behind it, find everything out for me!” Philip took a deep breath, his expression getting colder. His body was filled with a dormant but soaring chill! He was aware that since his sister’s information was manipulated, it meant that someone had to be interfering with it. Their motives must be terrifying! However, no matter what their motives were, Philip would get to the bottom of this! No matter who it
How should he put it?He definitely could not tell Wynn the truth. That brat Jaden Larson had dug a pit for him. Ten minutes passed. Philip remained silent and maintained his posture of pinching his chin with his eyes closed in deep thought. Wynn frowned and called out to him, “Philip, you’re sleeping again!” Right then, Philip woke up and said leisurely, “I see, it’s okay. Just leave it to me.” “You? What do you plan to do?” Wynn did not trust Philip entirely with this matter. After all, the other party made an assassination attempt. This sort of thing only happened in the movies. “I have my ways. Don’t worry about it,” Philip stretched as he said. Seeing that Philip did not plan to tell her anything, Wynn did not pursue the matter but asked worriedly instead, “Juan just invited me for dinner. Do you think I should go?” “Juan invited you for dinner?” Philip raised his eyebrows and could not help feeling that there was a trap somewhere. Was he really trying to
Very soon, Philip reached the door of the research room. He quickly entered the password and went through the iris detection system. Fortunately, Wynn had his details entered into the system the last time. Otherwise, no matter how resourceful Philip was, he could only rely on explosive weapons to break in! There was an explosion in the research room! It was too sudden. Although judging from the sound, the scale of this explosion was not too large, but it would be deadly enough if ordinary people were caught in the center of the explosion! After going through the four-fold security door of the laboratory, Philip could see that the entire laboratory was enveloped in smoke. He could hardly see what was in front of him at all! The visibility was less than two meters! Smoke bombs! Philip had gone through the devilish training by Reed Williams after all, so he could naturally tell that the smoke around him was caused by smoke bombs. Instantly, his tumultuous heart relaxed. Smo
Philip roared a few times, but the research room was chaotic and no one listened to him. After all, their lives were at stake here! Several people squeezed their way toward Philip. He grabbed two of them and pushed them back, but when he grabbed the third person, a cold light abruptly flashed at his neck! The dagger shining with a cold light was like a poisonous snake protruding out of the smoke, aiming at Philip’s neck while baring its fangs! The opponent’s movements were very fast. Even at a glance, one could tell it was a professional! Moreover, the timing of this sneak attack was very accurate. When Philip noticed the crisis, the dagger had already pierced through the shirt on his chest! “Damn it!” He could not fight head-on. The opponent came prepared, and with the thick smoke surrounding him, Philip could not tell the position of the opponent at all. He could only dodge out of the way quickly and arch his back to avoid the attack from the man in the dark! The dagger
Philip was anxious, but the killer in front of him obviously would not let him leave so easily. The assassin looked at his palm that was pierced through, blood flowing non-stop! The killer already knew he had failed. This was the first time he tasted defeat, and what awaited him was probably death! However, he knew that if the task was not completed, they would also die upon return! Therefore, he could only try his best to hold Philip back and gain some time for his companions! Their operation this time was very well planned. They thought this task would be completed easily, but who would have expected Philip to appear so suddenly and almost completely reverse the situation? Fortunately, they had planned this operation in detail. Two people were sent out, one to find the research data and another responsible for the lookout. If not for Philip’s sudden appearance and disruption to the situation, maybe the person on the lookout would still be hidden without exposing his i
Mason frowned at Aslan but did not respond. Philip said, “This guy has become Sienna’s underling. He’s here to find the Binary Herb for Sienna, which coincides with our purpose. Now, he wants me to hand it over or he’ll ask Sienna to kill me. I’m very scared,” Philip said sarcastically and could hardly contain his laughter. Hearing that, everyone was startled before bursting into laughter. They had been with Philip through thick and thin, so they knew who Sienna was. “No way, this guy is using Sienna to threaten Philip. Is he kidding?” “I’m sure he’ll be scared out of his wits if he finds out what really happened. This is ridiculous.” Philip’s men scoffed at Mason’s arrogance. Yule’s men were puzzled, wondering what was going on. “Before this, Philip almost killed a snake monster named Sienna. Unexpectedly, the snake monster escaped and found herself a human servant. On top of that, this human servant thinks so highly of himself as if he's very proud of his identity.” L
“Go and grab that thing for me. We have to get hold of it! Don’t let that guy steal our treasure. And remember to find the thing I want!” Mason ordered his men in a panic. Mason was startled by Philip’s speed of collecting things. Everyone quickly sprang into action. They were not fools. They would be penalized if they did not get things done. They raced against time to grab the treasures from Philip, but Philip was unfazed. He knew that all the treasures would fall into his hands in the end. Besides, the piles of treasures simply contained some pills and other stuff, nothing much. “Sir, we didn’t find the Binary Herb.” At this time, someone stepped forward to report their findings. Everyone was anxious when they realized they could not find the most important Binary Herb. Mason scowled at the bad news. “Impossible. The Binary Herb must be around somewhere.” The location of the Binary Herb was marked on his map. It had to be nearby. Mason looked around with the map
“Of course, an ignorant guy like you wouldn’t know what’s going on. This place is full of danger and had a powerful monster as a guardian. You don’t know anything because you’re unworthy.” Mason jerked his chin smugly, clearly proud that he knew some inside information. “If you beg me, I’ll consider going with you to deal with this monster.” In Mason’s opinion, Philip was no match for this monster. The bloodstains had to be from some weak monsters killed by Philip. According to his understanding, the legendary guardian snake monster was very powerful, not something ordinary people could deal with. “Don't you know why you’re here?” Philip said smugly. He knew that Mason was nothing but a pawn. Philip had seen through everything and was full of scorn for Mason’s nature. Mason was horrified that Philip knew him so well. “How did you know? I've been keeping this secret very well. No one should know about it. Did that snake woman tell you? That's impossible. She hates you very
Seeing this scene, Rabbit applauded excitedly. “You must be dreaming if you think you can fight Philip!” Rabbit said excitedly. Philip quickly killed the snake. He was surprised to find that the snake only had half of its body. He thought half of the snake was trapped in the stone, but it only had half a body left. “Did it grow from the stone?” Rabbit was shocked, wondering what was going on. “Something is wrong with this monster beast. It’s actually growing from the stone. How strange!” Philip was surprised by the strange discovery. “Indeed. It looks very strange, not like a good guy at all.” Rabbit was horrified and felt that the snake was more than met the eye. “Philip, look at this. Is it a description of this monster beast?” Rabbit looked at a huge stone tablet on the side in puzzlement. “Philip, look, I think this snake has something to do with that snake woman!” Rabbit was surprised to see what was written on the stone tablet and pulled Philip over for a look. The
“No matter what, we need to get our hands on it and don’t let it fall into the hands of others.” Before Philip could take the stone, he saw a snake coiled around it. “Hey, Philip, that’s a male snake. Maybe it’s related to that snake woman. Why don’t you ask and find out?” Rabbit joked. Philip shook his head with a smile. The two snakes were of different species. How could they be related? “If you’re interested, go find out for yourself. Don't blame me for not saving you if the snake decides to eat you. Curiosity kills the rabbit. Don’t forget it,” Philip said with a hint of taunting, clearly teasing Rabbit. The snake’s reaction was better compared to the two dumb octopuses. After noticing Philip’s presence, it flicked its tongue at Philip and rushed over. Philip noticed the difference in its tongue. Normal snakes had a forked tongue, but this snake had numerous tongues. The sight looked very weird and sent a chill up their spines. When the snake opened its jaws, numerous
At this time, Philip noticed something on the ground. He walked over and picked it up curiously. “Philip, that thing fell from the old octopus just now. I wonder what it is. Maybe it’s a rare treasure!” Rabbit popped out and looked at Philip excitedly, attracted by this shiny object. “Isn’t that the core of a monster beast? Wow, this octopus was so powerful that it could even produce a core! It’s a pity that it bumped into someone like me, who eats octopuses without leaving anything behind.” Philip collected the core that the octopus had developed for tens of thousands of years and grinned at the carcass that lay in his space. Only monster beasts that had practiced for tens of thousands of years could produce such a precious thing, so Philip hardly saw any. Philip had not killed any beasts with tens of thousands of years of practice, so he had only heard of it. “I’m surprised that this guy gave me such a precious thing. In that case, we must have a good meal to show our a
“Philip, I sense a weird presence. I think something is after us. Do you think it’s the octopus’ father?” Rabbit scowled, feeling they should leave at once. “Didn’t you explore the cave thoroughly just now? Did you find other monsters inside?” Philip frowned and explored with his senses. Although he was very strong and sensitive, he could not sense approaching danger like a monster beast. A normal monster beast could sense up to tens of thousands of yards but Philip could only sense thousands of yards at most. That was the ultimate difference between humans and monster beasts. Rabbit was worried. It did not consider this problem. “I was so busy looking for the way out just now that I overlooked this problem. Who would know that the octopus had a father?” Before Philip could retort, they felt the world spinning around them, and a huge tentacle hit Philip. Philip pressed Rabbit down and turned around to dodge as quickly as he could. He knew that a powerful being was here. “
“Haha, but I never planned to let you go either. In that case, don’t blame me for doing this!” The octopus' huge tentacle twitched as if it were going to teach Philip a lesson. Philip sneered at this scene. This little octopus was quite interesting. Although the octopus claimed that it would not harm Philip, Philip could read its thoughts from its eyes and actions. This octopus was more than met the eye. He would have died if he listened to its nonsense. “Hehe, I'm not hungry now. I’ll keep you and the rabbit as my food rations. Let’s see if you can escape my clutches!” The octopus swung its tentacles and sent all the surrounding gravel flying, creating chaos. “Philip, that thing is so full of itself. Let’s stop wasting time with it and leave at once. I've found the exit. It’s right in front of us!” Rabbit hopped up to Philip and pointed out the route it found. Philip let Rabbit go earlier so it could find the way out. Although Philip wanted to eat the octopus, he knew that
“I wanted to let you go, but I've changed my mind. Leave this rabbit behind as my supper and you can leave safely. Otherwise, you can never escape. Since you're here for the ruins, you won't leave empty-handed. Let’s make a deal.” The octopus seemed very confident that Philip would give Rabbit up. Rabbit glared daggers at the octopus, shocked that it wanted to eat it for no reason. “I know many secrets about this place. If you strike the deal with me, I can tell you some secrets so that you can go through the King’s Ruins smoothly.” The octopus seemed to read Philip’s thoughts and tried to convince him to agree to the deal.Seeing that, Philip pretended to be tempted. “Really? That's great. It’s a good deal to get so many secrets with just one rabbit.” Philip placed Rabbit on his palm and shook it in front of the octopus. “But you have to tell me the secrets first or I’m afraid you won’t keep to your promise. I’m definitely no match for you. I won't gain anything if you go
