After that, the call was disconnected. With a frown, Yana flung the phone on the bed. With her arms crossed, she looked at the murderous scene raging downstairs. Could it be that other forces had joined in? Back to Philip’s side. He glared at Cecil as if he was looking at a dead person. Cecil was also taken aback by Philip’s words just now. He wanted his life? Very well! He was very brazen indeed! Cecil came back to his senses and laughed. “Fantastic! As expected of the rich financier who Theo found. You’re really bold! But do you really think people like you can take someone like me down?” He was furious. Cecil’s expression darkened coldly. The other party’s tone was too conceited! He had been in the arena for so many years and never been threatened by anyone! Interesting. However, in response to Cecil, Philip just smiled faintly and said, “You can try.” Arrogant! Overbearing! His calm words were like thunder on the ground, blasting through the hearts
After the phone was connected, Cecil asked coldly, “What’s the matter? Why are you calling me at this time? Don’t you know I’m busy?” He was at the brink of an explosion. Cecil was like a walking bomb, ready to explode at any moment. “Master Cecil, something has happened at home!” On the other end of the line, his subordinate stammered. “Where’s Madam?” Cecil’s brows suddenly twisted. Suspicion flashed across his face as he raised his eyebrows to look at Philip. Could it be him? “Haha, Master Cecil, long time no see. Lady Mae is safe for now.” Suddenly, there was a different voice on the line. Cecil had heard this voice before and shouted furiously, “Tiger Zander? If you dare lay a finger on my wife, I’ll kill you!” What was going on? How could Tiger Zander be in his courtyard? Instantly, Cecil reacted. He turned around, glared at Theo and Philip viciously, and asked, “Did you do this?” Philip said calmly, “I never go into battles unprepared. Cecil Dane, toda
“Hahaha, I want to see exactly how Theo and you are going to take my life today!” Cecil laughed, his eyes filled with an expression of victory. His people had already arrived! They outnumbered Theo’s men now! How could they be a match? In an instant, the figures gathered from all directions. Yielding weapons, they instantly filled the small square in front of Fenix Hotel. This was an unexpected turn of events. The change in this scene shocked everyone present! As expected of Cecil Dane! He had a backup plan! This reversal caused everyone in the lobby and upstairs to sigh and shake their heads. Among them, Peter Murdoch was the most triumphant. When he noticed the arrival of Cecil’s men, he immediately smiled and ran up to Cecil to flatter him. “Master Cecil, you’re very wise indeed. What a godly plan! This time, it’s all over for Theo and that Mr. Clarke.” As he spoke, Peter also glanced at Philip on the opposite side. There was a look of contempt and mockery in
Earlier, Cecil had flown into a rage and shouted at his capable assistants Razor and Ali. The two guys remained silent while looking at Cecil coldly. They were motionless. They were resisting orders! Cecil frowned and yelled, “Razor, Ali, are you f*cking deaf? I told you to hack him into pieces!” However, the tattooed Razor and the burly Ali who was wearing a green vest still did not move a step. They stood there coldly with a sea of people behind them, just looking at Cecil. They looked as if they were staring at an idiot. “Master Cecil, I’m sorry, but ten minutes ago, you were already kicked out of the board of directors by Cecily Group.” Razor put his hands in his pants pocket and said with an unruly sneer at the corner of his mouth. Boom! Hearing this, Cecil's heart trembled as his brows furrowed. He then roared furiously. “What the hell are you talking about? I’m the chairman of Cecily Group. Who the hell dares to kick me out?” Cecil was enraged! Were they tu
Bowen’s participation in the underground chamber of commerce back then was still vivid in their minds! That was the big boss recognized by the entire South River District, Riverdale, and the surrounding small areas. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the unofficial leader of the entire southern region. Back then, he was full of spirits, and wherever he went, he was respected as Master Bowen. Peter totally panicked and his knees went weak. F*ck! Was he not supposed to meet his benefactor? Where was that person? Was that a benefactor or a jinx?! Peter felt like he was about to die. On all levels inside the building, the prominent figures displayed different looks. They did not expect the other party’s trump card to be Bowen Roy! He was back! This session of the underground chamber of commerce would be full of surprises! Ken’s expression was the gloomiest. He had been preparing for a long time. After Bowen’s incident back then, he had rushed to catch up an
Razor stood there with his hands in his pants pocket and said nonchalantly, “Master Cecil, I used to follow Master Bowen in the past. The things you did recently have gone overboard. How many brothers who followed you back then were secretly disposed of? Do you really think we don’t know about it?” Toward the end, Razor was almost roaring with anger! After that, he took out a voice recorder and pressed the play button. A seductive female voice could be heard saying, “Master Cecil, didn’t you say that Joe is just a dog you raised? Why do you treat him so well?” Cecil’s voice replied, “Since he’s a dog, I have to feed him well. Look, as soon as I said I’ll give him Riverdale, he’s so happy. What else is he but a dog?” “Master Cecil, are you really going to give him Riverdale?” “Since it’s mine, it’s up to me whether I want to give it or not. Why? If I don’t give it to him, would he dare to snatch it from me?” It was followed by Cecil’s loud laughter… “Master Cecil, be gen
Philip was startled, and his face suddenly changed. The Beauty Killers was actually founded by his mother. What could be the secret behind all this? Philip was a little flustered, and the voice on the other end of the phone continued, “The Beauty Killers is a secret organization founded by the lady during her lifetime. It only obeys orders from the lady and did many things for the lady and the Clarke family. However, after Lady Larson’s accident, the Beauty Killers suddenly disappeared from the world for a while. It was only a few years ago that they returned to the arena and gradually began operations again. During this time, someone must have taken control of it again.”Philip was silent for a moment before reacting and asking, “Have you found out who it is?” The voice paused before saying hesitantly, “It’s not easy to find out. They’ve basically erased all the past information. I managed to buy the rest with a lot of money from some old friends. It can also be said that the
At the same time in Phoenix Pavilion at Phoenicia. Wallace Phoenix had just received the report about Fenix Hotel. Apart from anger, he was also full of shock! Unexpectedly, this Young Master Clarke’s methods were so forceful! It actually took him less than half an hour to completely defeat a worthy opponent like Cecil Dane! Moreover, Bowen was successfully released from prison, redefining the sphere of influence and ranking in the South River District. It was Bowen Roy! He was the epitome of a real overlord! Wallace once looked up to Bowen. There were too many variables in the underground chamber of commerce this time. Who exactly was this Young Master Clarke to employ such methods? He had the money. He also had connections. He even knew Don Garcia! The worry in Wallace's eyes turned into hatred and killing intent. He turned around and asked Jerome, the second brother, who was behind him, “Is everyone ready?” A trace of murderous intent flashed across J
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
Rabbit was sunbathing in the yard and had no idea what was going on. He had a feeling that someone was setting him up, but he was powerless to resist. “Rabbit.” Philip calmly summoned Rabbit with no indication of his thoughts. Rabbit approached hesitantly and stared at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “Since you know that the Hexa Guild has declared war on us, we can't just sit and wait for things to happen. We have to show them how powerful we are.” Rabbit quickly understood Philip’s meaning. He wanted Rabbit to fight. Rabbit sighed and agreed. After everything Philip had done for him, it was time for Rabbit to take the stage. Philip wanted Rabbit to deal with the other party and do it in a humiliating way to show them that they were beneath a rabbit. “Okay, I know what I should do. Just sit and watch.” Everyone in Petal City knew that Rabbit was Philip's pet, so his actions represented everything. All the guilds kept an eye on the situation as Rabbit w
Philip shrugged at Jamie’s words. “It's just a small matter. Whether you accept the challenge or not, it's not a big deal.” Every guild had to safeguard their dignity. They had to accept the challenge or they would be seen as cowards. Philip smiled. No matter what they decided, he had a bold idea. Jamie nodded thoughtfully at Philip’s words. After some deliberation, he said goodbye to Philip. He knew what he should do. Not long after Jamie left, the news that the Celestial Palace accepted the challenge spread. They adopted a tough stance, criticizing the actions of the Hexa Guild. All the major guilds knew what was going on, but they were surprised that the Celestial Palace was brave enough to make everything public, which was no different from exposing the other party’s crimes. The Hexa Guild finally revealed their true colors. The members were ashamed of being part of the Hexa Guild. The members of the Hexa Guild knew about Lincoln's stance and were worried, wondering
Alain would be doomed if Lincoln ignored him. “No way!” Alain panicked, horrified at this development. The whole guild might be at stake if Lincoln was unwilling to help him. “I've decided not to get involved in this case anymore. Deal with the mess you created yourself. Don’t expect my help.” Lincoln was very decisive about ignoring Alain. Hearing that, everyone was in despair. “Grandmaster, don’t do this to me!” Alain knew that he was doomed. He wanted to persuade Lincoln to help him, but it seemed hopeless. Lincoln waved his hand and turned away, unwilling to lay his eyes on Alain again. In his opinion, the biggest mistake was choosing such a person as the guild leader. It did not make sense for a guild to turn out this way. If Dennis had been in charge, everything would have been different. Left in the room, Hogster and Alain looked at each other, at a loss for what to do. They had thought that Lincoln would solve the problem for them, so they just did whatever th
Alain rushed over to Lincoln to boast about his plan. He knew that Lincoln would be proud of him after hearing it. However, Alain got a slap on his face before he could even speak. He stared at Lincoln blankly, wondering what just happened. “Why did you hit me?” Alain felt embarrassed and sorry for himself. After all, Hogster and many other guild members were around. At his age, it was unacceptable to be slapped in public for no reason. The onlookers backed away in fear, avoiding eye contact with Lincoln. The murderous gaze in Lincoln’s eyes was terrifying. “Why did I hit you? Don't you know why?” Lincoln trembled in anger at Alain’s reaction. This guy had no idea what he did wrong. “I saw Philip just now.” Lincoln stared at Alain, trying to read his thoughts. However, Alain was startled and confused. “In that case, you should've seen how scared he was. That’s what he gets for offending our guild!” Alain was excited and smug at the thought of Philip being scared out of hi
Although everyone was confused, they knew that despite his arrogance, Rabbit would not accuse someone for no reason. “I went out for a walk just now, and everyone is talking about the Hexa Guild declaring war on the Celestial Palace and Philip!” Hearing that, Lincoln nearly passed out. Since everyone was talking about it, it had to be true. He never dreamed that something like this would happen right after he left. “Old man, you need to tell us what’s going on. How dare you pretend to be a nice person in front of my boss? You must be tired of living!” Rabbit was very angry at this hypocrite and wanted to yell at him. Lincoln grimaced and shook his head. He had no idea what was going on either. “I'm really sorry. Let me get to the bottom of this. If everything is true, I owe you and the Celestial Palace an explanation!” After learning about the whole incident, Lincoln knew that the Hexa Guild was at fault for everything. He felt embarrassed by this. “Sure, I’ll wait for your
