Martha glared at the brawny man. As Philip reached out for the phone, the frightened Martha mustered the strength from nowhere. She got up and rushed over to grab the phone. However, Philip just kicked her and knocked her to the ground once again. Then, in the entire yard, the recording of Martha's initial contact with the man sounded. Each one of her words was chilling to the bone. Philip was already shaking with anger while holding the phone in his hand. With red eyes, he stared at Martha who was already at a loss on the ground. He said angrily, “I’ve already warned you a long time ago that if you dare to lay a finger on Wynn and Mila, I’ll never let you off! Today, you’ve completely crossed my bottom line!” When Martha heard this, she knew Philip was really angry.She knelt and climbed over to Philip in fear, hugging his leg while begging for mercy. “Philip, I was wrong. I’m your mother-in-law, after all. I was really wrong. I won’t dare to do it anymore. Please let me go.
Miguel Wallis?! The most beloved youngest member of the Wallis family and also Giada’s nephew. However, he was an arrogant, domineering, and insolent boy. In the past, Philip had taught him a lesson or two. As such, the two bore grudges. Why did he suddenly appear in Riverdale at this time? Philip frowned. He was just about to turn around and go out when a figure barged in. It was accompanied by a burst of very disgusting laughter. “Haha, Philip Clarke, it’s been a long time since I saw you. Are you surprised to see me?” Miguel Wallis wore a well-fitting white suit that looked expensive. A luxury watch worth millions adorned the wrist of this man who had a handsome appearance and a well-proportioned figure. This was the appearance of a celebrity on TV. He was followed by four bodyguards in black suits with serious expressions, all of them death warriors of the Wallis family. Miguel carried with him an air of frivolous nobility. Everything on his body added up to
At the door, Miguel got into the red Aston Martin sports car, beckoned to the man standing by the door, and said, “Go, get some people and make trouble for Beacon.” The subordinate bent down respectfully and said, “Yes, Young Master.” Miguel glanced at the hospital entrance and sneered conspiratorially. Philip Clarke… He had failed to beat this man in the past. Now that Philip had left the Clarke family, would he still lose out? What was so great about the Clarke family on Arcadia Island? Here, in the ward, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Wynn sat on the hospital bed, looking at Philip who was across from her. She asked after a long while, “What did he mean just now? Philip, are you hiding something from me?” Wynn frowned. She was not stupid. She had gone through many things recently and everything seemed to be related to Philip’s identity. From the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Johnston family, Philip gradually became different. He was richer and more power
Wynn also noticed the movement behind her and sat up sideways. She was slightly surprised when she suddenly saw these people in the ward. However, she still asked with a polite smile, “Hello, you are?” Wynn was very curious. Why was there suddenly an old man sitting in a wheelchair in her ward? Looking at the people around him, they looked like private guards. Furthermore, the dormant aura around everyone was unfathomable. Even if it was hidden well and deep, Wynn was still keenly aware of it. The old man in the wheelchair, even though he was very old, was still as steady as a mountain. His eyes revealed the vicissitudes of the world amid the chaos. Although he was an old man at the brink of his life, the majestic aura he exuded was the first of its kind Wynn had encountered in her life! It was too strong. It was like a dormant dragon. Moreover, he and Philip had the same aura. The old man took out a silk handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of his mouth. His eld
Mila turned, her ponytails flipping about as she curiously looked at Roger who was sitting on the wheelchair. She asked in a crisp tone, “Mom, who is this?” Wynn bent down and said gently to Mila, “Mila, this is your father’s father, your grandfather.” Hearing that, Mila’s big black jewel-like eyes suddenly brightened as she stared at Roger closely. “Go, give Grandpa a hug,” Wynn said with a smile. Mila was a little scared. After all, it was her first time seeing her grandfather. She took tiny steps toward Roger, stretched out her tender little arms, and grabbed Roger’s big hand. Then, she raised her little head, revealing tiny dimples as she shouted sweetly, “Grandpa!” “Hey,” Roger responded, his eyes full of doting and kindness. His heart melted at that greeting. Picking Mila up and putting her on his lap, Roger’s eyes became a little misty. His granddaughter, the granddaughter of the Clarke family. “You’re the little princess of the Clarke family, do you know?”
The Dragon Seal! It was the personal token of Roger Clarke who was the head of the Clarke family! The power was immeasurable! If this token was issued, all the forces and financial resources that belonged to the Clarke clan would have to follow the order! Furthermore, this token could be used to call upon the old veterans who conquered the world with Roger back then! It was a token that could mobilize Roger’s hidden power! If the Sovereignty Seal was used to command the power of the Clarke family out in the open, then the Dragon Seal would command the power that was hidden in the dark! It would include mobilizing the Shadow Squadron! This token was the only one in the entire world! This was what Giada, including the people behind her, coveted the most! That was the cornerstone of Roger Clarke and the cornerstone of the Clarke family! However, Roger gave the Dragon Seal to Wynn! The moment this token was taken out, all the frolicking shadow guards in the entire w
When Charles heard Martha’s words, his face darkened with a frown as he said, “What are you talking about? You hired someone to kidnap and kill! It’s a criminal offense and you can be jailed! Fortunately, nothing happened. If something really happened, the rest of your life would be over!” Charles could not believe that this sentence came out of Martha’s mouth. Was she crazy? “Bullsh*t!” Martha cursed hysterically, “I don’t care if that piece of trash dies. What does it have to do with me?” Charles was helpless while Martha was completely consumed by hatred. Martha stared at the ceiling, hissing and crying in pain. The continuous pain made her resentment for Philip grow deeper. Damn it. She would kill him sooner or later! Just as Martha was cursing Philip to the heavens and back, a few people suddenly appeared at the door of the ward. First, two bodyguards in suits entered the ward and looked around. Then, an old man sitting in a wheelchair was slowly pushed in. Imm
Martha trembled in fear. This was her first time meeting the in-law, and the scene was actually like this. He looked very old and sickly, but his eyes were full of vicissitudes and profound depths. Martha felt as if she was stripped naked in front of Roger, where even her thoughts could not be concealed at all. That feeling was mortifying! Moreover, at this moment, Roger’s aura was very intense. Although it was already being suppressed, Martha, who was lying on the hospital bed, was still overwhelmed by the kingly presence. She could not help swallowing a mouthful of spit, cold sweat running down her forehead! The entire ward was filled with killing intent! Charles dared not say anything as well. Seeing Roger at this time was even more terrifying than the time he saw his immediate boss back then! This was Philip’s father, his in-law! How terrifying! Although it was just a look, Charles’ knees went weak. The man’s next sentence made Martha panic. “I heard that
Jamie was surprised by Philip’s easygoing reaction and immediately felt the gap between him and Philip. If Jamie were in Philip’s shoes, he would be worried, but Philip was confident instead. Jamie had a lot to learn from Philip. Jamie had no idea that Philip did not take Dennis seriously at all. Philip had too many capable people under his command. He was not concerned about Dennis at all. In comparison, Dennis could be considered the most useless person under him.… On the other hand, Rabbit arrived at the market. Rabbit was quite famous among the major families by now. As a non-human with a violent temper, he was in the center of attraction wherever he went. Someone tried to kidnap Rabbit once, but not only did he fail, but the person was also beaten badly. To this day, the kidnapper was still bedridden in the hospital. Rabbit’s notorious reputation had spread far and wide, and not just anyone could deal with him. At this time, many storytellers were at the tavern tal
People in seclusion would usually not receive any news from the outside world, so contacting them would be up to luck. Therefore, Lincoln's appearance was good news for the Hexa Guild. Now that the guild was under scrutiny, Lincoln's appearance would save them a lot of trouble. Lincoln stood on the spot, looking at the yard curiously. Philip had modified the yard, so it was full of energy. Any practitioner would feel the difference at once. Jamie and the others had discovered this fact but never asked out of courtesy. Everyone had their own secret. Maybe this was Philip’s secret. Lincoln closed his eyes and felt the abundant energy. He was reluctant to leave this place that contained tens of thousands of times more energy than the place he had chosen for his seclusion. Lincoln felt conflicted. He could practice much faster in this place if the energy level remained the same. Thinking of this, he could hardly contain his excitement to practice on the spot. Seeing Jamie nex
Lincoln had never met a monster beast with intelligence! After taking a closer look at Rabbit, Lincoln had other ideas. Philip was most likely a powerful person with extraordinary strength to have such a powerful monster beast as his pet. Dennis was not a fool. Philip had to be powerful and not a coward for Dennis to willingly follow him. Thinking of this, Lincoln showed Rabbit enough respect. “Mr. Rabbit, I’m looking for Dennis from the Hexa Guild.” The guild members behind him were full of disbelief at his courtesy. They had served him for a while and knew his character very well. Lincoln would never be so polite to ordinary juniors, so this rabbit had to be unusual. Thinking of this, their attitude toward Rabbit changed from disdain to admiration. Rabbit was shocked by their eccentric behavior and looked at them skeptically. Seeing their smiling faces, Rabbit decided not to make things difficult for them. Besides, they were polite. “Oh, you’re looking for Dennis. Come
This guild member could not forget how Hogster had always stolen his resources by force. Hogster’s ugly face made him sick. Although Lincoln was back, he had lost all confidence in the guild. He just wanted to return to Dennis' side as soon as possible. Although he was a member under the guild leader, Dennis was the one who had been helping him all along. In fact, if not for Dennis’ support over the years, even Alain would not have achieved what he had today. Hence, this guild member had always been grateful to Dennis. When Dennis left, he wanted to leave with him, but due to special circumstances, he stayed until now. Unexpectedly, it came in handy. Alain was excited to hear that. In Alain's opinion, such a lowly member would not dare to lie to him, so he had to be telling the truth. He knew that this was his chance to settle everything once and for all. Alain had been worried that Lincoln would blame him, but Lincoln was deceived instead, which was great. He had nothing t
Lincoln had a very good reputation, so the guild members dropped their guard and started to complain about everything. “Grandmaster, we've been having a hard time. Hogster always deducts our practice resources and gives them to the women he likes. It’s infuriating. We don’t even have that many resources to begin with,” a member said miserably. He had good talent, but Hogster did not give him any good resources, so his level remained stagnant. All his resources had been given to the women who had caught Hogster’s fancy. Lincoln scowled upon hearing this. How could Hogster take other people’s resources? He would not allow this to happen. “They also tried every means to arrange a political marriage with the Celestial Palace, but the agreement fell through, and they badmouthed the other party for it!” “They defamed the young lady of the guild, and now, they're furious at us. Their wrath is not a joke. Moreover, someone solved the side effects of their practice technique, but we'v
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
