“Miss Larson, you must take a good look. This kid is just an ordinary person. He’s nothing! I’m the head of the Seed family in Uppercreek, and I’m willing to pay 500 million dollars! I only ask Miss Larson to recommend me to the enforcers.” At these words, the crowd raised their hands and shouted. “The Wood family will pay 800 million dollars. I hope Miss Larson can put in a few good words about me in front of the enforcers.” “The Sutton family will offer one billion dollars!” “1.5 billion dollars from the Leeds family! The Leeds family will definitely get the spot in Miss Larson’s hand!” For a moment, the hall suddenly turned into an auction. Countless people started bidding and even came to blows! However, Sheryl only smiled lightly and said to the agitated crowd, “I appreciate your kindness, but the Larson family has already selected the most suitable candidate.” “Who?” someone asked indignantly. “It can’t be that guy, right?” someone pointed at Philip and asked. S
When Sheryl heard that, her body shuddered slightly as she mumbled, “I’m not hiding anything from you.” Seeing Sheryl’s evading eyes, Philip chuckled and pushed Sheryl away. He was about to walk out. At this time, Sheryl panicked. She quickly chased after him and clutched Philip’s arm, saying coquettishly, “Don’t be in such a hurry to leave. Since you’re already here, don’t you want to meet the people from the Nonagon?” Philip turned around, raised his eyebrows, and said with a snort, “Sheryl, what exactly are you up to? Do you really think I’ll help you?” Sheryl let go of Philip’s arm, crossed her arms over her chest, and said, “You will because I have a secret that you want to know.” Philip frowned and asked, “What secret?” Sheryl replied, “It’s about your mother’s accident. Don’t you want to find out something?” “Are you threatening me?” Philip’s face turned grim, the chill in his eyes absolutely frightening. However, Sheryl seemed unperturbed. She smiled and said, “
Sheryl smiled sweetly and said, “You don't have to worry about that. I have my own arrangements. I can get you into the Nonagon safely. As for whether you can pass the final selection of the Nonagon and successfully enter the door, it depends on your own strength.” Hehe. Philip sneered and said, “As far as I know, the Nonagon is filled with a bunch of freaks. Do you think I can find what my mother left me and take it out under the noses of that bunch of freaks and the Five Pavilions? “Besides, it’s been so many years. Why do you think I can find something that even the Five Pavilions can’t? Sheryl Larson, this lie you’ve made up is too unreliable. Even if you want me to work for the Larson family, there’s no need to tell such a lie.” Philip said suddenly, his eyes looking icy cold. Sheryl smiled as if she had expected Philip not to believe her. She said, “If you don't believe me, you can meet the people from the Nonagon with me and listen to what they have to say.” Philip t
Instantly! The atmosphere in the entire hall became somewhat cold and awkward. Who was this kid to talk to the people from the Nonagon like that? Did he know the kind of people he was dealing with? These were the four enforcers of the Nonagon! Moreover, that sturdy man exuding chills was the most belligerent, malicious, and vindictive among the four! Hiss! Everyone gasped, and many looked at Philip in confusion. They also looked at Sheryl who sat beside him. Was this the talent chosen by the Larson family? How arrogant. He was young and fearless. At the same time, the man in the black robe slowly removed his hood, revealing his hideous and vicious face. He had dark skin and a tattoo of a tiger on his arms and neck. This tattoo alone was enough to make the people present tremble. People from the Nonagon were not ordinary people. These people were freaks who had entered the door. The man's eyes were savage. The scar at the corner of his mouth was now raised,
Venom withdrew his attack but the belligerent killing intent in his eyes did not dissipate. With a broad sneer, he said, “Young man, I’m very interested in you. You’re the first person who can stand in front of me without fear. I really hope to see you in the Nonagon.” After that, he turned around and returned to the side of the coquettish woman. The four of them sat down. Sheryl was extremely frightened just now. She quickly got up and asked with concern, “Philip, are you alright?” Philip shook his head and breathed a sigh of relief. The tremendous pressure he felt from Venom had disappeared at this moment. He smiled and said, “I’m fine.” Immediately after, his eyes swept over the four enforcers of the Nonagon. The other two removed their hoods as well and Philip finally got a good look at their faces. One of them was a middle-aged man about 40 years old with a gray goatee. His eyes were closed throughout, making it difficult to guess his thoughts. The other was a rath
Smack! A person in the hall angrily and abruptly slapped his palm on the table. Then, with a face full of chills, he pointed at Philip and shouted sternly, “How dare you?! Who told you to interrupt? Do you know what this place is? Do you know who the person you’re talking back to is?” “Miss Larson, is this the person chosen by your Larson family? I think he’s just an ignorant young man! How dare he question the decision of the Nonagon? Is he tired of living?” The man turned his head angrily and shouted at Sheryl. The coldness in his eyes could not be hidden! He was already angry and jealous of Sheryl for becoming a special guest enforcer. Now, the person she chose actually dared to question the decision of the Nonagon on such an occasion. No, he was questioning the four enforcers in front of him! Simply audacious! Was he unaware of who these people were? In these people's eyes, ordinary people like them were mere ants that could be wiped out at will! In their eyes, pe
The murderous aura that radiated from Venom’s body filled the entire hall! Everyone could not help but tremble all over, their legs and knees going weak! Was this the strength of the people from the Nonagon? How terrifying! Without doing anything, just Venom’s intensity and words alone intimidated people! Everyone’s eyes fell on Philip at this moment. They wanted to see how this young man would solve the current dilemma. At the same time, they also looked forward to Venom making a move and outright killing this person chosen by the Larson family! That way, their families and the forces behind them would have one less competitor! Even the other three enforcers were staring at Philip with searing eyes, waiting for his reply. The smile on Connie’s face was the broadest. She was very interested in the man in front of her. The middle-aged man in his 40s opened his eyes slightly and took a look before closing his eyes again. It was as if the scene in front of him was not
After saying that, the coldness emanating from Venom’s smirk grew more intense. He moved at top speed to slash Philip’s arm with the dagger in his hand! With that slash, Philip’s arm would definitely be ruined! When Sheryl saw this scene, her expression crumbled and she hurriedly shouted, “Stop, no! You absolutely can't hurt him!” Hearing that, Venom glanced sideways at Sheryl and asked curiously, “Why not? Isn't he just an ordinary person? Doesn’t your Larson family have another candidate for the selection?” Sheryl was panicking at the moment. If Philip was harmed in any way, the Clarke family would definitely not let the Nonagon off! The Clarke family and the Nonagon had been at peace for decades. If anything happened at this juncture, it would be bad for both parties. Moreover, Philip was the heir of the Clarke family. If he was injured by someone from the Nonagon, Roger Clarke would certainly be furious! Not to mention the four enforcers but even the Five Pavilions
“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
