Hearing this, Charles and Martha fell silent. Martha kept tugging at Charles’ sleeve and making eyes at him. Charles thought for a moment and asked, “How did you find out?” Philip replied, “Martin Johnston wanted to threaten me and Wynn with the Lovelace family’s incident to take over Beacon Group. I dealt with him and found out about this secret. At present, no one else knows except for them, you two, and me.” Charles breathed a sigh of relief at this, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with a nod, “Good, it’s good that she doesn’t know. If Wynnie finds out that we’re not her biological parents, then…” Charles did not continue further. After all, they naturally had feelings for a daughter they had raised for more than 20 years. Philip nodded in agreement, looked coldly at Martha who was hesitating to say something, and said, “Dad, I called you over just to tell you that this matter must not be made known to Wynn. Since you chose to keep such a secret, keep it
Shane got up and had not taken two steps when Cleo Lovelace said coldly behind him, “She has golden blood just like you. In this world, apart from a few people from the Lovelace family, those with golden blood are byproducts of failed experiments. You should understand the importance of people naturally born with golden blood to our Lovelace family.” Shane huffed, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said lightly, “I know. To be honest, I really want to have a taste of the golden blood of this cousin of mine. I want to know the quality of the golden blood she has.” As he said that, Shane licked his lips with a wicked smile. Hearing that, Cleo’s shapely eyebrows furrowed as she said coldly, “You absolutely can't do that! After all, she’s your cousin. She plays an important part in our Lovelace family's next plan! If anything happens to her, the elders in the family won’t spare you!” Shane turned his head, a cold smile appearing from the corner of his eyes. He said, “Cleo, d
How could that be possible? Was Philip really that great? When Charles saw that Martha had finally realized something, he huffed and said, “You should think over it carefully and stop being unreasonable. Otherwise, after everything is over, you have to bear the consequences!” “R-Really? No way, how can he be so powerful?” Martha panicked. Her arms and legs had just recovered not long ago. If it was really the same as what Charles said, how was she going to live for the rest of her life? Thinking of this, Martha quickly grabbed Charles and said, “Charles, if this is really the case, you must put in a good word for me. I haven’t treated him well over the years.” Charles grunted and said, “So you know that you haven’t treated him well all these years?” After saying that, he waved his hand and walked away. Martha followed behind unhappily. At this moment, the nurse came out again and asked anxiously, “Mr. Clarke, can we draw blood from Madam Johnston’s parents? We can’t
Hearing this languid and fiendish voice, everyone looked in the direction. It was a handsome man with angular features, and he was smiling coldly. With hands in the trouser pockets, he walked over slowly and smugly. When Martha and Charles saw this man, the change in their expressions was apparent. There was obvious fear and apprehension on their faces. Charles frowned and immediately glared at Martha beside him coldly. He asked in a low voice, “Why is he here? Did you call him?” Martha was also nervous as she mumbled, “What else could I do? Only the Lovelace family can save Wynnie now. Do you want to see anything happen to Wynn?” Charles sighed at Martha’s words, feeling helpless. He did not know if Martha had done the right thing in this situation. On the other hand, Philip frowned as his icy gaze fell on Shane who was walking toward him. Shane Lovelace? A member of the Lovelace family! Why was he here? Philip flicked his gaze around. Seeing Martha’s expression,
Shane stared at Philip coldly. There seemed to be a special magnetic field and resistance between the two! At first glance, they looked like mortal enemies. “The heir of the Clarke family is very different, indeed. Your body contains that exciting and delightful smell. I really kind of can't help but want to take you away, torture you slowly, and make you my test subject.” Shane’s face was full of intoxication, and his eyes were slightly narrowed as if he was fantasizing about something very exciting. “A superb experimental subject like you will surely transcend the times and shock many people.” Philip frowned as he stared at Shane, completely unable to figure out what he was talking about. “Do you have golden blood?” Philip asked coldly. Shane raised his eyebrows and said, “Yes, what about it?” Philip’s eyes were cold as he asked, “What are your conditions?” Shane smiled and thought for a moment. He looked at Mila who was clutching at Philip’s pants, squatted down, and
Silence loomed on the other end of the phone before Fennel said in a vexed and serious tone, “The Lovelace is a family that you absolutely cannot touch or associate with. “This family has been engaged in various experiments that surpass the limits of morality and the human body. Back then, it was because the Lovelace family secretly conducted human experiments and violated a certain taboo existence and ordinance that led to the chaos that wrecked their entire family. “The Lovelace family has been nailed to the pillar of shame. As a family, they don’t have the right state of mind and can be said as a family of sinners in this country. However, there are also three factions within the Lovelace family. There’s a radical faction engaged in various experiments that transcend secular definitions and morality, a neutral faction in a neutral position that never questions or cares about anything, and the conservative faction that has always opposed the Lovelace family’s various human experi
Hearing this, Philip’s expression grew even more somber. The so-called golden blood was only an experiment of the Lovelace family? Was it really the case? “By the way, I know of people who have golden blood and have awakened the special power and genes in the blood. There’s one in the Nonagon, one in the 12 Sacred Halls of the West, and one among the Supremes,” Fennel added grimly. “What's so special about people who have golden blood?” Philip took a deep breath and asked. Fennel pondered for a moment before saying, “The only person with golden blood I’ve really come into contact with or fought in a true sense is the one from the Nonagon. He was once the king of disciples in the fifth zone, also my kingship predecessor.” Boom! His words exploded in Philip’s mind! The former king of disciples, and the fifth zone at that! That was terrifying! Suddenly, Philip seemed to have thought of a possibility behind the Lovelace family's existence! Was their purpose the door?
As soon as Rick finished speaking, Rachel, who was submerged in the bathtub, suddenly noticed someone hiding behind the curtains. She turned her head and shouted coldly, “Who’s there?” She abruptly stood up from the water with a splash and quickly picked up the red bathrobe hanging on one side. She wrapped it around her delicate body. Immediately after, she took out a silver cherry blossom pistol from a side drawer. Barefooted, she walked to the window curtains with cold eyes. At this moment, Rick was full of trepidation as he hid behind the curtains. Damn it, he was discovered while peeking. What should he do? This was urgent! He immediately hung up the phone as his eyes quickly scanned the surroundings. He was looking for an opportunity to escape. Swish! The curtains in front of him were suddenly pulled open and a pistol was held right between Rick’s eyebrows. Rachel’s hair was dripping wet but it did not affect her stunning beauty. The corners of her mouth curv
“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
The Hexa Guild also claimed that they would kill anyone from the Celestial Palace. Although upset, no one dared to say anything in the face of the other party’s strength. It would be embarrassing if they could not live up to their claims if they retorted now. Moreover, the battle was a matter of life and death. Everyone was risking their lives. The Celestial Palace had the confidence to face the Hexa Guild now. They believed that they could turn the situation around with their strength or at least show them what they could do. There would be a battle between the two parties in the afternoon, which was the best time to show off their strength. The young lady of the Celestial Palace would be the one contending. After improving her strength, Vanna was full of confidence and vowed to give her opponent a fatal blow or at least let them know how powerful she was. Ronan was nervous. He was not worried about his wife but worried that the Hexa Guild would take things too far. Those
It could be considered returning the favor. Jamie shook his head helplessly. He knew Philip’s kind intentions, but this matter was not so simple. “I know that your wine can improve someone’s strength, but it’s no help to us right now!” The overall strength of the Hexa Guild had increased so much that it went beyond anyone’s comprehension. Carlos turned up at this time. He wanted to talk to Philip about this matter, but Jamie beat him to it. “My friends just told me that the Hexa Guild is hellbent on dealing with everyone, not only us. Anyone up against them will be killed. They must be insane to face any guilds without fear!” Philip was intrigued. They could not be so confident for no reason. They must have encountered an opportunity. “Maybe they encountered an opportunity. I can't be sure about this, but I can at least provide you something to ensure that nothing happens to your people.” After saying this, Philip handed Jamie some pills. Philip was very confident about
It was very suspicious that a bunch of losers became so strong all of a sudden. “Philip, don’t you think something is wrong? I have a feeling that the Hexa Guild did something,” Jamie asked bluntly with mixed feelings about it. There was clearly something wrong with the Hexa Guild. Philip nodded. He had been watching the competition carefully. He could see that these people’s strength had just been improved, and their foundation was not very stable. “Don't think too much. There is a problem with them, and it’s not small either. From the looks of it, they must've taken something that can quickly improve their strength. However, their skills and combat experience can't keep up, so they can only barely manage it.” Philip shook his head helplessly. At this rate, even the members of the Celestial Palace would suffer. Moreover, the Hexa Guild held a big grudge against the Celestial Palace. Once they met, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. “What should we do? All th
“You should prepare for the competition.” Philip turned and left after saying that. Everyone felt angry at his domineering appearance. Some people had ideas about Philip. “Which guild does Philip belong to?” a man with a sinister face asked angrily. He wanted to know which guild Philip belonged to so that he could go all out to target Philip's guild. Others shook their heads. No one knew much about Philip. At this time, a spy from the Hexa Guild stepped forward. He looked at the man flatteringly and provided all the information he knew. “Philip doesn't belong to any guild, but he’s an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace!” The fact that Philip became an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace had not been made public. Only people keeping a close eye on the Celestial Palace knew about it. The Hexa Guild had always wanted to deal with the Celestial Palace, so they had been keeping a close eye on the latter. They knew all the minor details. The man scowled as if he did
“I can explore the secret realm on your behalf, but why do you think she’d appear there?” Although Philip could not figure it out, maybe the old monk had his reason for saying that. “I’ll explore the secret realm after the guild competition is over. If I can find the woman you’re looking for, I’ll think of a way.” In fact, Philip would rather take the old monk with him. He did not know what the woman looked like, so it was better for the old monk to do it himself. “Sure!” The old monk smiled brightly, surprised that Philip would agree so decisively. The secret realm was full of dangers. He knew that he should not let others take risks for him, but Philip did not ask any questions and even agreed to his request without any hesitation. “I’ll think about it and see if I can find a way to bring you in,” Philip said off-handedly. He still preferred to bring the old monk with him. The old monk was dumbfounded and thought he had heard it wrongly. “What?” The old monk gaped at
