There was dead silence at the moment and all eyes in the entire venue were focused on Philip. This man, from the starting price of 20 million, directly increased it all the way to 600 million! He was too wealthy for words! At this moment, the originally very lively auction venue suddenly calmed down because of Philip's bid. A nonchalant Philip. Conrad, full of admiration. A furious Wallace. A frosty Rachel. Also, jaw-dropped tourists and VIPs. This was probably the first time Phoenix Pavilion ever encountered such an incident since it was founded and also the first time that an item was sold for 600 million!It was most probably a record-breaking sale throughout the country! In the past, Wallace would be jumping in joy to have sold an item for 600 million from 20 million. It was a huge profit! Today, however, he was very angry! His face was full of gloom! This was completely out of his plan and control! The price had doubled! Who the hell was this guy who
“Why? Are you afraid I’ll find something out?” Wallace sneered, “I knew it. How could someone like you afford 800 million? You’re just making use of Miss Zander to get into the main hall. Now, as long as you apologize to everyone now, I’ll let you off the hook, but please leave the venue immediately!” Wallace was very magnanimous. In his eyes, Philip was nothing but an ordinary person out to cause trouble and garner attention. It was probably because he wanted to show off in front of Miss Zander. The people present all smiled gleefully when they heard that Wallace wanted to check Philip's assets. This investigation would reveal the truth! “Hehe, as expected from a wretch! Now he’ll have to reap what he sowed!” “What a scumbag! Now that Boss Phoenix is upset, I’m afraid he can’t even get out of Phoenicia alive!” “The trouble that beauty brings. He’s just trying to show off in front of that woman, but now look at what he’s gotten himself into!” Many tourists expresse
Someone took a peek at it before shouting excitedly, “My goodness, there’s a balance of 100 billion!” 100 billion?! The audience went into an uproar! Everyone was astounded by the news! Who could imagine a balance of 100 billion? Who dared to imagine it? Even if everyone in the audience combined their assets, it would not add up to 100 billion! This was the legendary rich and wealthy! Moreover, he was so young! All the girls at the scene went crazy at the moment, looking at Philip with extremely longing eyes. All the guys also went crazy at the moment, looking at Philip with incomparable jealousy. As for Philip, he was still looking at Wallace and the rest of the people in front of him with the same stoic expression. No one could match his unruffled demeanor. Especially Wallace who stood across from him at the moment. He did not even have the courage to look at Philip. He really did not expect a guy like this to have so much money! There must be a great back
Now that things had reached this point, there was no need to care about the other’s dignity anymore. However... Philip just swept his gaze over the people present indifferently, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Wallace before saying, “As I’ve said before, I’m bound to get my hands on this jade and gold phoenix tonight. Whoever dares to stop me will die!” His words were full of murderous intent! Wallace was also surprised by Philip’s insistence. However, he immediately retorted, “Okay, let’s see how you’re going to take it away!” Wallace waved his hand and a dozen well-trained security guards rushed out to surround Philip! It was obviously well-organized! However, suddenly! A shout came from the doorway. “Stop! Who dares to touch Young Master Clarke?!” Everyone followed the voice and saw a middle-aged man with a burly figure. He was dressed in a suit, wore leather shoes, and had on gold-framed glasses. He was walking quickly into the venue with four assistants be
Uproar! He did not even know Don Garcia! In other words, Don came here on his own accord. Don immediately replied with a smile, “I’m Don Garcia, the owner of Cloud Pavilion. Young Master Clarke once asked someone to bid for Emperor Qianlong’s jade thumb ring from me, do you remember?” Philip thought about it for a moment and instantly recalled the jade thumb ring that was given to Wynn’s grandfather back then. “Yes, I had indeed bid for it.” Philip nodded in response before asking, “Then, why are you looking for me now?” Don said hurriedly, “You’ve misunderstood, Young Master Clarke. I heard that Phoenix Pavilion was going to auction a rare item today, so I came to take a look. I didn’t expect to meet Young Master Clarke here.” Don was also pleasantly surprised. Originally, he was just here for the excitement. He did not expect to encounter the mysterious young master whom he had been investigating for a long time. Since the last transaction, Don had kept an eye out f
Philip stood at the entrance of Phoenix Pavilion, his body full of chills! On the other end of the line, it was Theo’s voice. “Mr. Clarke, don’t worry. I’ve sent someone to look for them.” How could Philip stay calm? He said, “I’ll return immediately!” Having said that, he disconnected the call and started running before he could say anything to Don who was behind him. “Philip, what’s wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?” Melody followed Philip and almost fell behind as she asked anxiously. “Anna and Mila are missing.” Philip replied, his face full of nervousness. He was worried that something bad might happen to them. After all, the current Phoenicia was full of all walks of people, and no one could predict what would happen. However! Something had happened after all! Before Philip and Melody had taken a few steps, a group of punks carrying baseball bats rushed out in front of them. They were staring at Philip fiercely! At first glance, this group of people were
This person was very dangerous! Not only did he have 100 billion in assets, but he was also respected and fawned over by Don Garcia! This proved that the identity of the other party was absolutely extraordinary! The more this was the case, the more an iron fist was needed! They could not leave any stones unturned! If they allowed the tiger to return to its den, there would be serious problems! On Philip’s side, Don’s car had arrived at the Fenix Hotel and Restaurant. At the moment, dozens of bodyguards in black suits stood at the entrance of the lobby on the first floor as well as in the lobby. They were Theo’s men! He had urgently mobilized a small part of his subordinates to surround the entire Fenix Hotel. Philip got out of the car and ran into the hall quickly. Theo approached him anxiously and said, “Mr. Clarke, it’s all my fault. I didn’t arrange anyone to follow Anna.” Philip waved his hand, not wanting to talk about it. He asked, “When did this happen? Hav
Chills! Killing intent! The entire lobby of Fenix Hotel was filled with Philip’s raging anger at this moment! Yes, Philip Clarke was itching to kill someone right now! To touch Mila was to shake Philip’s world! He would make these people pay the heaviest price! Including their lives! “I… I don’t know. Don’t kill me… I really don’t know.” The male receptionist still shook his head, his face flushing with pain. Philip shook his head with murderous intent in his eyes and raised the golf club in his hand before saying coldly, “Sorry, wrong answer!” The male receptionist crumbled while clutching his broken legs, looking at the golf club that was about to fall. He was wailing in pain. Suddenly! An anxious voice rang at the entrance of the lobby. “Wait a minute! Mr. Clarke, please stop!” A fat middle-aged man ran over while clutching a black leather bag under his arm. He was sweating profusely. Philip raised his eyebrows and looked at the fat middle-aged man stan
“I’m surprised that you’re such a devoted lover, but are you sure there’s nothing fishy about it? Humans usually look down on other races. Why would they propose a political marriage?” Lyle expressed his doubts over this matter. There had to be something strange about this. They might suffer a great blow if they rashly opposed the Swift family, but they couldn’t let the Swift family bully the woman of Loony’s dreams either. “I know it’s strange, but I’ve confirmed that the other party is indeed my lover.” They discussed at length but simply could not determine if this was a fraud.… On the other hand, members of the Swift family gathered happily as if there was something worth celebrating. “Are you sure we can trick Loony into coming over with this?” An ugly man looked at Drake with both curiosity and expectation. Drake nodded, excited at the thought that Loony would soon fall into the trap according to his plan. “You have to believe that he’s a man of loyalty and faith,
“Speaking of demons, I recall something. Before Rabbit's father died, he had a relic that he wanted to pass down to Rabbit. It was supposedly a valuable treasure that all demons would fight for.” Everyone was startled to hear that. “Something left by my father? Why have I never heard of it? Tell me the details!” Rabbit’s nonchalance was quickly replaced by anxiety. He had always attached great importance to news of his father. He had lost his memory, so he could not remember many things. He had no impression of his father either, which made him sad. “I don't know what your father left for you, but he was very adamant about giving it to you. It was hidden in the depths of the mountain at the time. Although it was said to be a treasure, I always thought it was just a gimmick.” Black Rabbit had always thought that Rabbit's father was an unreliable rabbit. He often used treasures to trick people into helping him. However, the treasures he gave were the real deal, so the rabbits
At Philip’s level, he could easily escape a carefully planned assassination like that. After the woman returned to the safe base in a hurry, a man appeared in front of her unhappily. “Did you fail your mission?” Although he looked unhappy, there was no anger in his voice. The assassin lowered her head and nodded nervously. She knew that death awaited her upon her failed mission. The other party sighed and said nothing. “This mission was issued by the Swift family. Although you failed your mission, they didn’t blame you, so you won’t suffer any repercussions.” The assassin was surprised to hear the man’s words. She escaped a disaster. “Really? That's great. My target this time is a strong, powerful person. We need to be fully prepared if we have to assassinate him again!” The assassin's name was Scorpio, a professional top-notch killer who rarely failed. However, she was defeated by Philip this time. Scorpio felt a lingering fear at the thought of Philip’s terrifying str
Moby was full of disdain for those people who kept bragging about their bloodline. Bloodline was important, but power was more important. It was sickening to see those people looking down on other races based on their bloodline when they were not strong enough to back it up. Everyone had always looked down on the fish creatures because of their bloodline. They had endured it for a long time. Philip’s arrival marked their time to rise. They had to show everyone that bloodline was not the most important factor in determining status. “However, the demons are not so easy to deal with. We have to be prepared for a drawn-out war. If I’m not mistaken, they’ll find ways to mess with us soon.” Philip was interested in the Swift family and wanted to find out more about them. “Normal people can’t get in touch with the Swift family. They've maintained the prosperity of the family despite being imprisoned for a long time, which proves their strong foundation." Loony was wary. He knew
Philip shook his head. It was too late to develop their force now. Half a month was not enough for them to reassemble their people. “We have the elves and fish creatures on our side, so we won’t face such a tough time, but the demons can employ some weird tricks,” Loony analyzed the situation like a lame strategist with a calm smile on his face. Seeing his dodgy appearance, Philip suddenly wondered if he was really as reliable as he imagined. The voodoo technique Loony learned was indeed powerful, and the demons were proficient in voodoo too, so Loony was the key to dealing with them. “Their dirty methods are endless. I can't wait to get my book back from them. I wonder what they've gleaned from it." Loony was very upset that his book had fallen into their hands. He felt that his book had been sullied by them. “I don’t think you can get the book back from them again. If I had mastered the book, I would've destroyed it to prevent anyone from using it again.” Lyle shook his hea
Although the demons active in the outside world were nothing worth mentioning and could be defeated easily, Drake knew that the true old elites were still hiding behind the scenes. No one would be afraid of the demons when the true gods were still around, but the true gods had been destroyed. Drake enjoyed the massage from his maids while he was lost in his memories. He recalled the battle ten thousand years ago. Ten thousand years ago, the true gods captured all the humans. Being new to this world, the humans did not know much about the true gods, so the latter took advantage of it. Due to the same reason, they fell miserably. Despite that, the humans also put up a tough fight and successfully sealed the true gods, resulting in a draw with both parties sealing each other. As all the powerful true gods had been sealed, some weaker parties created many so-called true gods to ease everyone’s worries. These true gods were meant to deceive the people, so Drake was not worried abo
The messenger said tentatively, “Philip is nothing but a small potato. Although he made the headlines now, he’s nothing much to shout about. We don't have to go to great lengths for him.” In fact, he looked down on Philip in his heart. After interacting with Philip face-to-face, he thought that Philip was only worthy of having a small force of his own. “You've wasted your years with me. Philip gives me a very special feeling. He’s different from other reckless young men. He’s a force to be reckoned with. At least, he’s my type. It has only been such a short time since he arrived in the world of the gods but he rose to the occasion so quickly. It’s inseparable from his personality and ability.” The messenger showed a sign of disapproval as if they should not think too highly of Philip. “We should take him down as soon as possible because of his ability to avoid any trouble. He may pose a certain threat to us if he’s allowed to develop further.” In his opinion, anyone who might
The messenger seemed surprised. Maybe he did not expect someone to refuse this treasure. “I won’t do anything for you if you don’t make things clear,” Philip said seriously, and everyone nodded. Everyone knew Philip’s character. Although everyone was tempted by the treasure offered by the other party, they knew better than to accept it. Seeing Philip’s tough attitude, the messenger shook his head helplessly and finally changed his tone. “Since you don’t know what’s good for you, I’ll speak my mind. Philip Clarke, you can’t survive in this world without a backer. I believe someone of your level can understand what I mean.” Seeing the other party's sudden change in attitude, Philip sneered. He had finally exposed his true colors. Now, Philip wanted to find out their true purpose. “My master thinks highly of you. Although your individual strength is important, you’ll only end up dead or face endless troubles without a strong backer to support you.” The messenger turned and lef
Philip looked at the pill given by the other party. He was not interested in the pill but wanted to find out what the other party was up to. “My master told me to give you this pill. He knows that you’re injured. You can recover very well with this pill.” Everyone was angry upon hearing this. Since the other party knew that Philip was injured, they probably sent the killer. “You guys are shameless! You found a killer to attack Philip, and now, you want to use a pill to act as a good person. You're playing good cop, bad cop! People of the Swift family are always so disgusting. After being locked up for thousands of years, you still can't change your ways and still do such shameful things.” Loony’s obvious disdain eased everyone’s frustration, but they wanted to find out what was going on with this Swift family. “This is a misunderstanding. We have nothing to do with it. We just know who wants to deal with Philip, but we have no right to expose the other party at our level, so
