Upon hearing that, Buck’s expression changed and he asked in surprise, “Are you going to deal with the branch family?” Philip took a deep breath, stood up, looked at the vast Arcadia Island across, and said, “That’s right.” With that said, he turned around, looked at Buck, and said, “Buck, when the time comes, I may have to trouble you guys.” Buck frowned, thought for a moment, and said, “Philip, you’re the young master of the Clarke family. By right, you’re my young master. I don’t dare to disobey your orders. Even if you send us to our deaths, we won’t have any complaints. But as your buddy, I have to remind you that the branch family isn’t as simple as you think. I hope you can think twice before you act.” Philip smiled and said, “I know that the influence of the branch family on Arcadia Island, their assets invested in the outside world, as well as their connections, are not things I can contend with. Especially since I’ve just returned. But how will I know the results if I
The table was full of delicacies. Wynn was taken aback when she saw the sumptuous spread and said, “Fourth Mother, there’s no need to prepare so much. I can't eat it all.” Hazel pouted and said, “Hey, you just got here, so how can we let you suffer? Don’t worry if you can’t finish it. Just eat whatever you like. If it's not enough, I’ll ask the chef to cook more.” Wynn smiled and knew that Fourth Mother doted on her, but faced with the sumptuous spread on the table, she really could not accept it for a while. Just when Hazel and Nadia were taking care of Wynn lovingly, eating and chatting with her, as well as asking about how Philip had been all these years, a group of people suddenly barged in uninvited through the door! The leader was the young master of the branch family, Kelsey Clarke. It was the same guy who went to Uppercreek to show off and was taught a good lesson by Philip. With his hands in his trouser pockets, he was dressed in expensive branded clothes and leath
With that said, a cold glint flashed in Kelsey’s eyes and he said, “Men, invite this sister-in-law of mine to the branch family.” Clatter! Instantly, several elite guards of the branch family rushed in and tried to grab Wynn! Nadia stepped forward and reprimanded, “I’ll see who dares to take my daughter-in-law in the main family’s territory today!” While saying that, Nadia was full of chills, which shocked the branch family’s guards so much that they dared not move forward! That was because she was the madam of the main family with a distinguished status. If they dared to offend the madam or touched her a little, they would be dead if an investigation was carried out later! Kelsey’s face darkened. He went over, kicked the waist of the guard he brought over, and yelled, “Didn’t you hear what I said? I told you to grab her!” The guards wanted to cry, but they bit the bullet and stepped forward. As a result... Smack! Nadia slapped them, her face looking fierce with a
That b*tch Nadia Sawyer was just a concubine sleeping next to Roger Clarke. How dare she shout at Kelsey?! He was the young master of the branch family and his lineage was nobler than hers! At the thought of Nadia's threatening words to him just now, Kelsey’s teeth ached with anger! He had to admit that Nadia had a really good figure. Although she was in her 30s, her skin was tender, she had curves in all the right places, and she looked very feminine! If she was not the patriarch’s woman, Kelsey would really like to get her into his bed and ravish her! ‘Nadia Sawyer, just you wait! ‘When you’re divorced one day, I’ll definitely run you to the ground!’ While thinking about it, Kelsey shuddered all over. Then he turned around, put his hands behind his back, and swaggered back into the front hall. With a sneer, he stopped all pretenses and said, “Fourth and Fifth Aunts, I’m sorry to tell you that my fourth granduncle has given the order for me to directly bring Wynn away.
Philip walked in from the door. His face was cold and murderous! With blazing eyes, he stared at Kelsey and asked coldly, “Are you taking my wife away?” Kelsey felt a little flustered at this moment, especially when he saw Philip's murderous eyes. He could not stop his legs from trembling! When he was in Uppercreek back then, he was beaten up badly by Philip. Thinking about it now, there was still some fear in his heart. Seeing that Philip had returned, Wynn felt relieved with a sense of security. Hazel and Nadia also relaxed a little. At least Philip was back, so the people of the branch family would probably not go too far. “Phil, you’re finally back. The branch family wants to take Wynnie away!” Hazel exclaimed. Philip frowned, looked at Kelsey as well as the guards of the branch family, and said to his mothers, “Don't worry, I'll take care of it.” His words were simple and to the point. He pulled Wynn behind him and stood in front of Kelsey with cold eyes. H
Did they not always hear about how the eldest young master of the main family had been away for seven years and led a miserable life outside? Why did he dare to be so arrogant right after he came back? Was it just because of his identity as the heir of the main family? However, they dared not think too much. They were both young masters of the Clarke family, and Philip’s status was far higher than Kelsey’s. “Sorry!” All the branch family guards bowed and apologized in unison! In the front hall, only Kelsey was left standing alone with a crying face. He was furious as he went over and kicked the guards he had brought. He roared, “Damn it! Rubbish! All of you are dogs raised by the branch family. Why are you listening to him? Stand up right now!” However, those guards did not dare to stand up even though they were kicked by Kelsey. It was because Philip had not said anything yet. Philip sneered, stared at Kelsey, and said, “It’s your turn. I’ll give you one minute.” “
The branch family’s guards behind Wilfred were of a higher rank than those brought by Kelsey. They were only loyal to the branch family and could refuse the orders of the main family. Philip raised his eyebrows, his eyes slightly cold. He sneered and said, “Wilfred Clarke, so it’s you. I haven't seen you for seven years and you still look the same.” “Audacious! How dare you speak to me this way? Don't forget your identity. I’m your fourth granduncle!” Wilfred said in a cold and angry voice, “How dare you not bow and greet me when you see me?!” Oppressing others with his power! The first thing Wilfred did after he came in was to suppress Philip with his identity. This kid was simply too arrogant! Kelsey also yelled at this moment, “Granduncle Wilfred, you’re finally here. Look at me. Philip has broken my right hand and right leg. You must stand up for me!” Kelsey was full of grievances at this moment, and his face was full of tears. He was used to being pampered and
Nadia hurriedly motioned to a maid in the front hall and whispered in her ear, “Quickly inform the nearby guards to hurry to Fourth Madam’s residence!” The maid nodded and found an opportunity to run out of the place. On this side, Wilfred’s painful right cheek was bright red with a palm print! He was furious and shook with anger. “Bold and presumptuous! How dare you do this to me?! You simply have no regard for the Clarke family rules at all!” Wilfred was livid. He was already in his 60s and was now slapped by a junior in public. If word of this got out, how could he still exert his influence in the Clarke family? “Men, take him down! Slap him a hundred times!” Wilfred almost roared, his usually stoic face now distorted with a myriad of expressions. Swoosh! Several of Wilfred's personal guards took a step forward and were about to execute the order! However, Philip’s expression changed and he said coldly, “Whoever dares to make a move today and crosses the line by
“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
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“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
