F*ck! He should take a step back as the conflict would be easier to resolve then. However, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became! The staff at the back also looked helplessly at the scene. Why was he so heavy-handed? The chair was custom-made and very expensive! They had no choice but to replace it quickly. Otherwise, if the boss got angry, blood would flow into a river. Shawn also smacked the armrest and crushed it directly. He stood up and shouted coldly, “Hart! There’s no room for your insolence here! Tonight is the underground chamber of commerce! We’re not at your martial arts arena!” He was already boiling with anger from tolerating earlier. At the moment, the staff backstage was having a massive headache… What the heck?! “Hahaha! Hane, I knew you wouldn't dare, you cowardly tortoise!” Gibson laughed and jeered. Shawn glared at him furiously and retorted, “Hart, you useless coward! You’re nothing but a buffoon who talks big!” “Bleh! You tal
In the ancient theater building, all the local leaders had settled down. The spectators and tourists in the outfield also sat down. Tonight’s underground chamber of commerce was different from the past. There would be an opening dance show at the beginning and various performances such as boxing match later as an initiative to interact with the public and heighten the atmosphere. However, everyone knew that the main event was the underground chamber of commerce at the end. When the underground chamber of commerce commenced, the tourists would not be able to see it as the venue would be closed. Now, everyone was just watching the opening gambit.Wayne Kingsley stood on stage and said to everyone, “A warm welcome to all the people from all walks of life and districts who are here in Phoenicia to participate in this underground chamber of commerce. With an attitude of tolerance and openness, this session of the underground chamber of commerce show is also open to the outside wo
Ken put aside his teacup, glanced at all the regional bosses who had different expressions on their faces, and smiled while saying, “I don’t know either. If Master Bowen really comes to participate, let’s just give him a warm welcome. After all, Master Bowen has treated us generously in the past. We can’t be ungrateful.” What Ken said was very true and no one could find any fault with it. All of them nodded, then smiled. “Ah, yes, Master Ken is right.” Yana, who sat next to Ken, turned sideways and whispered in his ear, “Master Ken, you got the best of both worlds with this speech.” Ken merely smiled and said nothing. However... Suddenly, an uncanny snort came from the side. With his arms crossed, Gibson said, “You’re really capable of talking nonsense without batting an eyelash. When Master Bowen was met with that incident back then, I didn’t see you taking the initiative to help him. I even heard that you stabbed him in the back. Otherwise, Master Bowen wouldn’t have coll
Instantly, the great hall fell into pin-drop silence! Everyone turned their gaze to the door. How could this be possible? Had Theo and Mr. Clarke not met with an accident? Among them, the most astounded person was Wallace Phoenix! At this moment, his eyes widened as he stared at the door in fear of missing something! At the same time, a hint of suspicion flashed across his face! This was absolutely impossible! However, in the next second... Everyone saw that at the door, Theo was taking the lead and stepped in. Then, he stood respectfully on one side while bending over and waiting for something. Following that, Philip Clarke, a tall and handsome man in a blue suit, walked in through the door. Behind him, a group of bodyguards in black suits all rushed into the hall and completely filled the exit of the entire hall! Looking around, a swarm of bodyguards in black suits had surrounded the ancient theater hall. Everyone felt a hint of fluster as they watched the e
Branson sneered, his eyes full of grim coldness, “Young man, you’re the first person who dares to say this to me. I want to see what’s going to happen to me!” As his voice fell, Philip had already taken out his mobile phone. At this scene, people looked at him incredulously. Everyone sneered. This so-called Mr. Clarke of Riverdale was not going to call for help, right? If he wanted to fight with the number of people, no one here would fall short. However, Philip continued to dial a number and said indifferently, “How are things going?” On the phone, a respectful male voice replied, “Young Master Clarke, everything is ready.” “Branson Wood of Sunnyglen, deal with this first. In five minutes, make all his properties go bankrupt. In ten minutes, make him collapse. Anyone standing behind him, dig out all their information and hand it over to the relevant units!” Philip ordered before hanging up the phone. Branson laughed sarcastically, looked at Philip, and shouted, “Boy,
After that, two black Cadillacs stopped at the door. Seven or eight men and women wearing black professional suits came out from the vehicles. They had a badge on their chests and a black briefcase in their hands as they quickly stepped into the mansion. A search! A thorough search! All evidence of Branson’s benefit transactions and criminal records would have nowhere to hide at this moment! Even the ledger he hid in the basement compartment was found by advanced scanners! A scene like this was not only happening in Branson's mansion. At several of his steel mills, several black commercial vehicles rammed through the electronic gates and drove into the steel plant. From the car, dozens of heavily armed personnel rushed down and subdued all the guards at the door! Then, a group of people barged into the office area of the steelmaking plant and took away all the documents, computers, and related staff! All this happened in ten minutes! Very fast! Branson’s people
Branson raised his eyebrows as he looked at Philip in confusion, his eyes filled with surprise. Philip slowly took out his phone, then clicked on a photo before tossing it to Branson. Branson grabbed the phone and took a look! Boom! Branson staggered and slumped weakly into his chair! The thing in the photo was his ledger! Moreover, every single transaction was recorded in his handwriting! How could this be? Why had it fallen into this man’s hands? Branson raised his eyebrows, frowned, and looked at Philip. He then asked with a cold voice, “It’s you?!” Philip shrugged, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said lightly, “Do you still remember what I just said? Ten minutes and I’ll bring you down. Do you believe it now?” As soon as this sentence was uttered, like a lightning strike, it hit Branson's heart! Pfft! He spat out a mouthful of blood! Branson was furious and completely broke down! Why?! His factories were seized! His mansion was sealed!
With just one sentence, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly tensed! Even the temperature became extremely cold! The leaders from various areas all turned their eyes to Wallace who sat at the end. The head of the four golden phoenixes from Phoenicia! If this was happening a moment earlier, they would all be ready to mock Philip again for being too full of himself! However, now, no one dared to. It was because they had all seen with their own eyes how that Mr. Clarke of Riverdale took less than ten minutes to bring down an epic leader, Branson Wood! It was too shocking! They could hardly fight against such methods. However, among these people, Ken, Yana, Gibson, and Shawn’s expressions had not changed much as they remained in their seats. Even Moses Dunley, who was sitting at the end of the other side, was looking at Philip with great interest. It was only until Philip walked up to him that Wallace raised his eyebrows and glanced coldly at the man before him. He the
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste
The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han
It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str
“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
