The butler asked again with uncertainty, “Young Master, do you really want to inform the people of the Lowell family now? It's midnight now. Besides, the old master has already fallen asleep. I'm afraid it isn’t appropriate for you to disturb him at this time.” However, out of the butler’s expectations... Seamus faintly glanced at the main entrance of the Lowell family and said directly in a serious tone, “Yes! Immediately notify all the persons in charge of the Lowell family, including the ones outside, to come back as soon as possible. I’ll invite the old master now.” Seamus’ expression was very serious, unlike he was joking. The butler’s heart started to tremble. He had never seen such a serious expression on his young master's face. It was as if something big was going to happen. “Young Master, did something happen?” the butler asked again in shock. As Seamus walked to the small courtyard behind the hall, he replied, “Don't ask so many questions. Hurry up! Our time is
Mr. Gunn walked through the middle hall to the inner courtyard, took off his shoes, and walked to the soft couch in the inner hall. He knelt and said softly to the old man in a white shirt lying on the soft couch, “Master, Seamus requests for a meeting. He has something important to report.” After a while, the old man on the soft couch got up with the help of the maid. He arched his back and lifted his head that was full of silver hair. His face had also aged, looking very weak and old. It was the old master of the Lowell family, Knox Lowell! Knox was nearly 80 years old! He had maintained this half-dead look for more than ten years, deceiving many opponents and defeating many rivals. There were rumors from the outside world. They said that the old master of the Lowell family was the undead Napoleon Bonaparte who silently killed many commercial opponents! However, no one knew that the status of the Lowell family today was dependent on one person. Without that person’s a
The person on the other end of the phone was wearing loose black clothes and standing in the corner of the alley in the middle of the night smoking a cigarette. A little scarlet light could be seen between his fingers. “Okay, got it.” After that, the man hung up the phone before looking at the dim sky and crescent moon. The Hull family, Hull Chamber of Commerce. Alas, another oblivious existence insisted on provoking the young master. Half a day later, in a high-rise building that was more than 600 feet high in a country abroad. This building belonged to one company, the Hull Chamber of Commerce. At this moment, a man in a cyan suit and sunglasses stepped out of a black Mercedes-Benz on the street. He raised his head and glanced at the building in front of him with a faint sneer at the corner of his mouth. Then, he took off his sunglasses, put them in his chest pocket, and walked toward the door with long strides. The dormant chill made the foreign people all arou
In the surveillance room, the next scenes were broadcasted live. The man with the presence of a devil fought his way up the Hull Chamber of Commerce floor by floor! Yes! Floor by floor! Almost every floor was filled with more than a dozen bodyguards on close lookout. However, these people, under the hands of the man in the cyan suit, were like sandcastles that fell quickly. Everywhere he went ended in destruction! The whole monitoring room was in a mess with the personnel yelling into the walkie-talkie, mobilizing manpower! Half an hour later. A man in a cyan suit that was covered in blood stood in the elevator. The stench of blood filled the entire elevator! Several half-dead bodyguards were sprawled on the ground. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at the blood-stained elevator buttons and indicator lights. Ding! The elevator stopped on the last floor. Clang! The elevator doors opened. At first sight, the entire corridor was filled with human heads!
Could it be that all the bodyguards outside had been dealt with?! How was that possible?! Was this guy a demon? Yeager Hull was panicked and horrified! He knew exactly how many bodyguards there were in the entire Hull Chamber of Commerce Building! However, even under such tight security, the other party still fought his way up and was unharmed! What terrifying skills! Fennel Leigh smiled faintly, walked directly to the wine rack, and took a few sips of a bottle of red wine. Then, he sat on the sofa and took out a cigarette. Upon lighting it, he started puffing away. Yeager was very nervous at the moment. He was standing behind the desk, quietly placing his hands under the drawer. He was ready to pull out the Desert Eagle from the compartment at any time. “My friend, since you can make your way here, it means you have some abilities. Why don’t you join my forces? I'll pay you 50 million a year.” Yeager said with a faint smile on his face. 50 million! This price w
Fennel scoffed, shook his head, and said, “No way. The young master of the Hull subsidiary kidnapped Young Master Clarke’s wife and sister-in-law. Even the stupid woman Vinci Hull vowed to fight against Young Master Clarke. In my opinion, the current Hull subsidiary is trying its best to deal with the young master. Do you think that under such a situation, the young master can let them off?” Rumble! A bolt of lightning struck Yeager’s heart! He would never have thought that the damned Flint Hull would provoke Philip’s wife! Was that not akin to courting death? “This... Is there no other way?” Yeager was completely daunted. The only thought in his mind now was how to rescue this. However, Fennel’s answer to him was still so brief and powerful. “If you want to survive, don't intervene. Otherwise, same treatment.” Crack! This sentence struck Yeager’s heartstrings. In an instant, he seemed to be drained of all energy as his eyes became blank. Following that... With
As soon as Colin's words came out, the entire hall went deadly silent! It was a long while before anyone reacted, and all kinds of remarks suddenly broke out. Everyone had an unbelievable look and expression on their face. “Patriarch, is what you said true? The Lowell family broke all cooperation with us?” “What is the meaning of this? Abandoning us after squeezing us dry? Do they even put the Hull family in their eyes?” “Damn it! The Lowell family deserves to die! How dare they annul the marriage?! This is treachery! They will be condemned!” For a while, everyone vented their dissatisfaction and anger. Everyone neglected Colin’s first sentence—someone was about to deal with the Hull family. It was because in their opinion, no one would dare to attack the Hull family at all. Therefore, they naturally ignored this sentence. Was that a joke? Attack the Hull family? Were they tired of living? However, some keen people did exist among them. It was because they notic
Everyone could not believe that this sentence was uttered by Colin Hull, the head of the Hull subsidiary, a fearless existence! The biggest crisis of the century. Total family destruction! How could this be? However, following that... At the entrance of the hall, a group of Hull family disciples dressed in black martial arts uniforms walked in carrying a stretcher. On the stretcher, it was Second Master Sven Hull. He was wearing a breathing mask and looked extremely weak. At this moment, the Hull family’s persons in charge were shocked when they saw the appearance of Sven! “Second Master, this is?” Everyone was dumbfounded and in disbelief. The dying man on the stretcher was the second master of the Hull subsidiary! A powerful hero! An infamous existence! Now… What in the hell happened? Everyone was flabbergasted! Colin walked up to Sven and looked at the man who was still weak with the breathing mask. He clenched his fists and said with a grim face, “Sven
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
“I have other important things to do. Don't worry. I’ll be back soon, so make sure you work hard during this time. I’ve given you all the pills you need. Whether you can make full use of them depends on you.” In Philip’s opinion, the Hexa Guild could not do anything anymore, so there was no worry about them. After much deliberation, Jamie nodded. Philip did not belong to his guild, so he could hardly stop Philip from leaving. Moreover, Philip’s pill supply was already a great help to them. It would be annoying if Jamie asked for more. “No problem. Where are you going next? Do you need my help? I’ll do my best to help you.” The Celestial Palace was powerful enough for Jamie to say such things. Philip shook his head. He would be traveling with Adam next, and his strength was incredible. It was best for them to leave together. “It’s okay. I have everything prepared. Just do your best in the competition and don’t allow the Hexa Guild to take the upper hand.” Now that the Cele
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
