Philip nodded and asked, “Are you saying that you can’t deal with Fred Able?” Jowin smiled and said, “Young Master Clarke, you’ve misunderstood. It’s not that we can’t deal with him but it’s not worth it. If he dares to come here, I’ll be the first to deal with him.” Philip did not say anything. With his hands behind his back, he narrowed his eyes as if he was thinking about something. He said, “My time is limited. I want the Dunley family to disappear from Flower City by today. You guys can clean up the rest of the mess. Without Homer Dunley and Milo Dunley as your rivals, it should be easier for you to manage Flower City in the future.” Jowin smiled. Philip was right. Without Milo and Homer, they would be more at ease. Several of them looked at each other. One of them stood out and asked, “Young Master Clarke, what do you have in mind?” The corner of Philip's mouth curved upward, revealing a hint of coldness. He said, “Since they refuse to repent, we’ll let them know the
Inside the room was a group of fully armed bodyguards in black suits! These bodyguards stared indifferently at the people standing at the door with long daggers in their hands. At this time, the guy in the lead looked at the weapons in the other party’s hands and compared them to the long daggers in their hands before panicking! This… How the hell could they make a capture like this?! There was simply a world of difference in equipment! Were they supposed to fight against cannons with kitchen knives? Now, all the guys standing at the door felt their legs shaking and no one dared to rush in. However, the guys who were in the second group were unaware of the situation inside the room. All of them raised the long daggers in their hands and shouted enthusiastically as they rushed in to grab credit! Thus, the situation was a bit funny. The first group of people at the door were forcibly pushed in by the second group behind them. Pop! The first group of people was being
Philip raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, “Tell me, did Fred Able send you?” The man in the lead darted his eyes around and shook his head desperately while saying, “No, Mister, you’ve misunderstood. We just got the wrong person. It’s a misunderstanding. I hope you can be generous and let us go.” Hehe. Philip sneered and said, “Still acting tough?” After that, he motioned to the bodyguards and said, “Loosen them up a little until they’re willing to talk.” “Yes!” A few bodyguards responded before squeezing their fists and dragging the gangsters up from the floor. They gave them a violent beating on the spot! Instantly, their miserable screams echoed in the room. The rest of the guys kneeling on the floor trembled. They did not dare to look at the scene. It was too horrible! It was simply inhuman torture. Then, Philip continued to ask, “Now, is anyone willing to answer my question? Did Fred Able send you here?” The remaining gangsters looked at each other w
Fred picked up the wine glass on the table and finished it in one gulp before abruptly throwing it on the table. He put his arms around the two charming beauties and said, “Tell me, what’s wrong.” “F-Fred, Rocky and the gang went to capture Philip Clarke but everyone was wiped out! We’ve lost all contact with them!” the underling got up from the ground and said while trembling. “What?!” Fred was shocked and stood up from the sofa in astonishment! The few beauties around wanted to go over to comfort him but Fred flew into a temper and slapped them while shouting, “Get lost!” The beauties covered their red cheeks and ran out of the door in a hurry. Fred scowled and asked, “What’s going on? Rocky brought a dozen elites with him but you’re saying everyone was wiped out?” Rocky was one of Fred’s most capable followers. He had been with him for seven to eight years. He had never failed a mission. Any task entrusted to him would be done well. The guy shuddered and lowered hi
“Stop guessing. Let’s go in and find out. Fred is waiting for us.” A gray-haired middle-aged man wearing a gray suit walked straight into the clubhouse after speaking. The other four also followed him inside. Before long, they saw Fred sitting on the sofa in the most luxurious private room of the clubhouse. Beside him, a maid dressed in skimpy clothes was making tea on her knees. There were six cups in total. At their arrival, Fred motioned and said, “Sit down and have some tea.” The five people sat down, picked up the cups on the table, and gulped everything down in one go. The man with the beard was the first to ask, “Fred, what’s wrong? Why did you gather us in such a hurry?” Fred glanced at the bearded man. He had been with him for ten years. He was loyal and honest, just a little quick-tempered and irritable. Without delay, Fred took a sip of warm tea and said, “I’ve gathered all of you here today to go to a place with me later and deal with one person.” “Is it J
Madame Red pursed her lips in a smile and said, “If I’m hearing correctly, isn’t he just a young kid from out-of-town? Jowin Benson may be willing to become his lackey but I am not.” Fred nodded. His gaze shifted to Kris and the man in a suit. He asked, “Kris, Oscar, what do you think?” At this moment, Kris Bush and Oscar Gibbs exchanged a glance. Kris thought about it and said hesitantly, “Fred, I think we should consider this matter from a long-term perspective. If I’m not mistaken, Master Milo must have been the one who asked you to take action this time. If even Master Milo can’t handle this matter, do you think we can?” Fred scowled and said coldly, “In Flower City, there’s nothing I can’t do! Are you doubting my strength now?” While saying that, the corner of Fred's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. Kris Bush used to be Fred’s strategist. Before making any big or small decisions, he would discuss them with Kris. However, in recent years, Kris’ working style an
This was a plan three years in the making. Three years ago, Kris lost Fred’s trust and was gradually ostracized. The other three also had their own agenda and made arrangements of their own. Half an hour later. Fred and the other five people’s cars had already arrived at the entrance of the hotel where Philip was staying! Behind their cars were more than a dozen black SUVs! Bang, clatter! The car doors opened and dozens of ferocious-looking thugs armed with weapons jumped out of the cars. They stood on both sides of the road, bowing and respectfully waiting for the first few cars ahead to open the door. At the same time, a steady stream of thugs with baseball bats and other weapons also emerged from both sides of the long street to gather at the hotel’s entrance. These were Fred’s people. Of course, the manpower belonging to his five lieutenants also emerged from the surrounding streets. At a glance, the place was packed to the brim for a few hundred meters! It
Meanwhile, Fred and his five lieutenants had arrived at the door of Philip’s suite. Fred swaggered into the suite and saw Philip standing in front of the large French windows with his hands behind his back and a faint smile on his lips. He looked very young. Was he the Philip Clarke who Milo Dunley wanted to get rid of? He was too young! At the same time, he also saw Jowin Benson standing next to Philip. He said with a sneer, “Hehe, Jowin, there are talks outside that you’ve become someone’s lackey. I thought it was a rumor but it seems to be true. You really are a disgrace to the six lords of Flower City.” Fred was arrogant. He paid no attention to Philip at all, his focus completely on Jowin. In Fred’s perception, Philip was no more than a strong figure from out-of-town. Although he had some strength and means, he could never overpower the local forces of Flower City! He was still most apprehensive of Jowin Benson. What if the mastermind behind the scenes was Jowin?
“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
