Several of his nephew’s ribs were broken and his internal organs were damaged. If not for his nephew’s good fortune, he would have died long ago! This man dared to say he had shown mercy? He was obviously gunning for his life! Klein could not stand by and watch as a member of the Hane family was oppressed like this. It was such a blatant degree of bullying at that! The Hane family was one of the most affluent families of Capital City! They would never tolerate such abuse from outsiders! “You haven't experienced his pain. He’s now covered in bandages and has lost his previous sunny disposition. He has become a gloomy person and it’s all caused by you! You ruined his life and his future!” Klein’s words are completely exaggerated. He was setting up the stage first! “Hehe, I ruined his life?” Philip mocked, “Excuse me, but you need to wake up to reality. A rotten person like your nephew must have ruined countless lives. Aren’t you embarrassed to talk to me about this? All
After hearing this, Philip decided not to leave. He pulled a chair, sat down, and said, “It sounds as if you have some unspoken grievances. Say your piece. I’m all ears.” Klein said solemnly, “It’s simple. You must accept the penalty.” “Did I hear it right?” Philip was stunned for a few seconds when he heard the words. Then, he mockingly said, “Are you talking to me about punishment? In that case, I believe that good-for-nothing nephew of yours should have been arrested a long time ago.” Klein frowned and retorted, “You don’t have to worry about that. If you committed the crime, you have to bear the consequences.” He knew in his heart that even though his nephew might behave badly, he was still his nephew after all. As his uncle, he had to avenge him! Philip shook his head helplessly at Klein’s insistence. “Whether this matter is my fault or your nephew's fault, you should know better than anyone else. You just want to vent some frustrations on your nephew or the Hane fam
Wynn took a few steps forward, stopped in front of Chip, and frowned as she said coldly, “Who are you? Why are you taking him away?” Chip gave Wynn a sideways glance and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he immediately scorned. “Why do you care? Don’t stick your head into the Hane family’s business!” “Is that so?” Wynn’s face was stony. “Is the Hane family above the law?” Wynn wanted to say more, but Philip pulled her clothes gently and said with a grin, “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine. Just go outside and wait for me.” Wynn was hesitant but finally nodded. “By the way, I’ve made arrangements for your safety too,” Philip said with a grin. Looking at Philip’s serious eyes, Wynn was still a little worried. “What about you?” Philip said, “Don’t worry about me. Small potatoes like them can’t kick up a big storm. I have my ways.” Wynn’s expression gradually eased. She knew that she had to make some preparations in advance. If something really happened to Philip, she ne
“What are you waiting for? Take him away now!” Chip shouted at his men. The men noticed that their leader was angry and quickly tried to grab hold of Philip. However, the latter suddenly turned around. A pair of gloomy eyes was bursting out with a cold light, staring at Chip. Chip frowned. He had never seen such a fierce gaze before. His heart thumped as he shouted, “Why are you still in a daze? Take him away!” This time, Philip did not resist but allowed them to take him out of the private room. Philip narrowed his eyes and stared at Chip. “Do you know Chuck Norton?” Philip suddenly asked. “What do you mean?” Chip did not understand why Philip had suddenly asked this question. However, he did know Chuck Norton because Chuck was his brother! His brother was in charge of external affairs back then, and he was responsible for unorthodox matters. Moreover, Chuck was the most outstanding talent in his generation. His martial arts skills were superb! However, it was
Klein let out a sigh of relief when everyone in the private room had left. Wynn was very intense. However, Klein Hane would not fear anyone! After all, he was a member of the Hane family of Capital City! Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Klein took a sip of the red wine. At this moment, the door of the room was also pushed open from the outside. A man with a sullen face walked in. Dressed in a black leather jacket, the aura he exuded was very cold. As soon as he entered the door, he sat down and started eating the food on the table. Klein looked at the man with a smile and said, “Why? Are you done?” The man took a few mouthfuls, nodded, and said, “How is it?” Klein sat down, poured him a glass of red wine, and said, “He has been taken away. I hope you can take care of the rest.” The newcomer was none other than Baloo! He wiped his mouth silently, took a sip of red wine, and got up before saying, “I’m off.” “Wait a minute.” Klein called out to Baloo, took
“Hehe, what’s the point of saying this now? Now that you’re in my hands and this place is full of my people, getting you to talk is a piece of cake. Of course, it’ll be better for you if you don’t force me to do it. We’re not bloodthirsty people after all,” Chip said impatiently. He did not want to waste time talking to Philip. However, in the next second, his eyes widened as he inhaled in shock. Philip raised his hands and clenched his fists. Immediately, he saw the handcuffs changing shape right in front of his eyes! In just a few seconds, Philip had broken the pair of shiny silver locks! Chip was so shocked that he took a few steps back. Was this the strength a human could possess? After breaking the handcuffs, Philip sneered faintly and flexed his wrists. Looking at the three dumbfounded people in front of him, he said, “Do you know what happened to Chuck back then?” Chip was stunned, his back already drenched in a cold sweat. Of course he knew about how his brother h
Chip was not a fool. Philip’s nonchalant attitude was enough to indicate some problems! This man could not be provoked. Otherwise, he would end up just like Chuck! However, he had already offended him! Under tremendous pressure, people would be prone to wild imagination, just as Chip was facing now! Philip looked at the flustered Chip, the smile on his face still as bright as summer. In Chip’s eyes, however, that smile was terrifying! “I’d advise you to not make any judgments before making sure of the situation, or you’ll get yourself into trouble. Just like the Hane family, acting all high and mighty like this. They’re really not afraid of death,” Philip said indifferently. “Boy, don’t try to scare me. The Hane family is not as wretched as you say!” Chip scorned. “Perhaps in your eyes, the Hane family is very impressive and unattainable.” Philip continued calmly, “But in my eyes, they’re nothing but insects.” Chip was completely flabbergasted by Philip’s intensity now.
Chip was full of panic at the moment. That was the only thought in Chip’s mind. “It’s not that I’m complaining, but you just brought me in here. We haven’t even discussed this properly but you’re already letting me go. I feel very unwanted.” Chip was stunned at Philip’s words. He did not expect that the other party would say this, and it seemed that he had made up his mind not to leave! What the hell was he trying to do?! In Moonlight Restaurant’s private room earlier, this guy was very reluctant to come with them. Now that he was released, he was reluctant to leave. Did he have a loose screw in his head? Guessing that Philip’s identity was special, Chip dared not talk back to him so directly. “Why aren’t you leaving? Do you want to stay here? You’ll only get one chance. Once I change my mind, you won’t be able to leave even if you want to. The Hane family is not as simple as you think!” Chip was getting anxious. “The Hane family?” Philip scoffed disdainfully. “Do y
Unfortunately, Philip was not affected by such things. He had always thought that such women were disgusting. Since everyone had a backer, he did not mind resorting to force. He would not back off if the woman decided to use some crooked tricks on him. “I don’t mind talking to you, but you need to put on some clothes first. If you can’t even dress properly, I have no reason to talk to you,” Philip said with an arrogant air of superiority. Hearing that, the woman could not help but burst out laughing. “You’re such a nice young man. I always thought you were a lecherous guy, but you’re so earnest. It seems that you can be a good business partner. I like you very much.” After saying this, a jacket appeared in the woman’s hands, and she draped it over her shoulders. Katie gritted her teeth at the woman’s actions. She was annoyed to see someone having ideas about Philip. Although Katie could be considered Philip’s apprentice, Katie had a secret crush on Philip. However, Katie
“I think everyone is underestimating humans. There are powerful formation masters among the humans. Although such things can restrain humans, how long can they last? Humans are constantly improving. They're simply looking down on humans!” Loony spoke with pride, clearly satisfied with the strength of humans. “Don’t blame me for bragging, but the humans were imprisoned for millions of years, and we've been making progress over the years. Other races would have faced a dead end if they were in our shoes. Not to mention escaping, most of them would have died of depression, so I can’t speak for them.” At this point, the pride of humans was fully reflected. Philip agreed with Loony. These people really underestimated the humans' abilities. “I don't know where they’ll go after escaping, but humans need social interaction, so I’m sure they won’t hole themselves up in a cave or something.” Philip frowned at this statement. In that case, many humans had probably entered the city. Th
The demons gave Moby a potion to make him stronger. Although Moby was ugly, it did not mean that he was stupid. On the contrary, he was more cautious than other races. He simply took a drop for an experiment without taking the entire thing. The creature that took the potion did become much stronger but ended up as an empty husk with a soul after one hour. The other party could control this body like a puppet if they had the relevant spell on hand. Moby was shocked by this discovery. It would have been the end of his life if he had taken the potion. He would have been seeking death by turning himself into a toy in the hands of the other party. Due to this reason, he decided to betray the demons. Black Rabbit was conflicted. The demons gave him the potion too. He simply kept the potion without using it because of his caution. He had thought of using it as a last resort, but he was so good at hiding things that he forgot where he kept it. In the end, he never used it. Blac
Everyone knew that the guy was just putting on a show. It was stupid to confront humans recklessly. Only a fool would mess with humans. Lyle and Aslan looked at each other. They knew the severity of the matter and could not wait to tell Philip about it. “Let's listen to what they have to say. We’ll tell Philip the whole story after figuring it out,” Lyle said calmly. They knew that they could not take this matter lightly. Although they did not know who sold their information, the other party was definitely up to no good, so they had to be careful. “Philip is the leader of a large organization. I heard that he’s here to turn the world of the gods upside down. He’s not from among the imprisoned humans but came from another world, which proves that he’s a force to be reckoned with. We may end up suffering if we confront him!” “Did the man named Philip release the humans?” “His goal is to destroy and take over the world of the gods!” Everyone was shocked by that declaration.
Moby quickly told Philip everything he knew. He knew that he had to tell Philip the truth to gain Philip’s approval. The fish creatures would get a lucky break once Philip approved of them and accepted them as their followers. Meanwhile, the demons knew Philip's strength through Akash’s escape. Not only were they not deterred, but they became more interested in Philip. They were curious to find out more about him. They even spread news about Philip in the city, but no one knew if they were doing it for revenge or to stir things up. While Philip learned more about the situation, Lyle and the others went out again. They simply could not sit still at home. Although the outside world was a mess, they could learn more about local sights and customs. Lyle and Aslan preferred to sit in a tavern and listen to gossip around them. At this time, the storyteller arrived excitedly, almost bursting with important news. “I heard something big today. Guess what?” Everyone looked at him e
Philip did not intend to kill Tom. On the contrary, he wanted Tom to live well so that he could suffer in pain all the time. Philip smacked Tom's body several times. Tom felt something was wrong the moment it happened. He looked distorted as if he was controlled by someone. His body was also twisting in weird angles. “I’ve destroyed your practice. You can never regain your power even if the demons help you. What do you think of this reward?” Philip sneered at Tom’s twisted posture. Philip severed all of Tom’s veins and imprisoned him in the swamp so that he could suffer the erosion of the swamp day and night. He wanted Tom to watch over Marina's remains forever. “I don’t have any grudge against the merfolk. I promised to help you back then, but you were stupid enough to believe the words of a treacherous villain to the point of killing your holy maiden. This is really sad and ridiculous.” The merfolk had suffered a tragic end, which was pitiful, so Philip did not want to dwel
“Chief, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and finish the ritual. Don’t let that guy get his way. We have to get back at him for his disrespect.” After saying this, Tom charged at Marina. He knew that he needed Marina’s blood to have a fresh start. At this time, Moray took out the merfolk's pearl. They hid the pearl very well and finally found it in the warehouse. Marina smiled in despair at the sight of the pearl. She obviously did not expect things to go so out of control. “Philip, I’m sorry to have wronged you earlier. It seems that you’re the only good person around. Everyone else has an ulterior motive and is always thinking about using me. In that case, I’ll do the last thing I can do to seek your forgiveness.” After saying this, Marina rushed to the pearl in Moray’s hand with sorrow in her eyes. Philip had a bad premonition and had a guess about what Marina was about to do. “Stop her!” Philip waved his hand, and everyone rushed over. Some people pinned Moray down
Although Tom had been tortured beyond recognition, he was still rational and yelled out his plan. Moray was hesitant. He knew what Tom was referring to. The merfolk had a powerful secret technique to create an immortal body by merging the blood of the holy maiden with a powerful warrior of the family. Tom was in such a bad condition that he would be dead if they did not save him now. However, once Marina and Tom’s blood were merged, it meant that they would have to be together and never be separated again. Marina shook her head in rejection. Not to mention the damage it would cause her, but she did not want to share the rest of her life with Tom. No one could live an eternal life with someone they did not love. However, Moray had gone crazy. He was bewitched by Tom and only had victory in his eyes. Although Tom was in a bad state, Moray believed that Tom could turn the tables with a little help. With that thought in mind, Moray grabbed Marina and pushed her to Tom reluctant
“Very well. I approve of this marriage. After you defeat Philip and return in victory, we’ll proceed with your wedding.” Hearing that, Tom sneered inwardly. He was an ambitious man. He was unwilling to let Moray control him. He planned to get the merfolk's treasure now. As long as he got the pearls from the merfolk and fish creatures, he could dominate the world with the treasures that could store energy, and everyone would have to bow down to him. He could force Marina to provide her blood and activate the pearl.When Marina was in despair, the mud that trapped Philip suddenly moved. Everyone was astounded by this scene. No one thought that Philip could survive. He was very strong, indeed. Before Tom could attack again, the swamp exploded. Tom was shocked. He had a bad feeling that everything would progress differently. Thinking of this, he kept attacking Philip with every means he had. However, it was futile. Philip easily broke through Tom’s defense and attacked him.
