Wynn took a deep breath and mustered her courage before she stepped into the castle that looked like a palace. As soon as she entered, she could hardly stand still! Too extravagant! Too big! Many rare and famous paintings hung on the wall with many expensive decorations! At first glance, many auction items that had caused a sensation across the country and abroad were actually displayed in this hall. Some were even randomly tossed in the corner. Wynn might not be aware that any one of these carelessly discarded objects in the corner could be worth more than ten million in the market outside. Wynn walked along the hall, and with each step she took, the shock on her face became more and more intense! Finally, she stopped in the hall and stared at the pure white wall. This was the only clean wall in the entire hall. At this moment, Wynn looked at the item hanging on the wall and her eyes became blurry with tears. She covered her mouth as two streams of tears rolled
Wynn’s face was hot as she quickly pulled away from Philip’s arms. She randomly picked up a jade-colored conch and asked, “What’s this?” Philip glanced at it and replied, “Mediterranean Jade Conch. It’s a gift from someone, said to be worth tens of millions.” “What? Tens of millions?” Wynn was shocked and hurriedly put the jade conch in her hand back in its place for fear of breaking it. Then, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. This small object was already worth tens of millions. In that case, in Philip’s hall with hundreds of objects, was it… Wynn dared not continue her line of thought. Philip walked over, took Wynn's delicate little hand, looked into her beautiful eyes very seriously, and said, “Wynnie, what I once promised you will definitely come true. Now, you’re the young madam of the Clarke family and this is your home.” Wynn looked up at Philip with reddened eyes. Her lips trembled slightly, and she stood on tiptoes, pressing her lips on Phil
Philip rolled his eyes at Lydia and said, “Go outside on your own for a while. I have something to say to them.” Lydia was not an ignorant girl either. She agreed and went out joyfully while yelling, “In that case, I’ll look for Sister Wynn.” Philip smiled and said, “It’s up to you.” After Lydia’s figure left his sight, Philip sat on the sofa and took a sip of the tea made by the servant. Theo and Victor stood aside respectfully at this moment, not daring to make a sound. Philip laughed and said, “Why are you guys so uptight? Sit down, I have something to tell you.” Victor and Theo glanced at each other before they sat down but still sat properly like elementary school children. Philip did not pay attention but served them tea instead. Theo and Victor accepted it with fear and trepidation, not knowing if they should drink it or not. Who would have expected that the mighty Theo Zander of Riverdale and Master Bell of Uppercreek would behave like schoolchildren at the mo
Meanwhile, the line of sight shifted to the branch Clarke family on Arcadia Island. The entire Clarke family was divided into the main and branch family. They lived on the same island, but the main family was located in the central area of Arcadia Island, sitting on a sprawling mountain, the Zion Mountain! The castle where the main Clarke family lived was also built on Zion Mountain. As for the branch family, although also within Clarke Manor, there was a clear geographical division between the two. The branch family was located on the western side of Clarke Manor. At this moment, in the solemn and vast chieftain’s side hall of the branch family, a heated discussion was taking place! The old masters of the branch family were gathered together. Though there were seven seats, only four people were seated at the moment. That was because Connor, Allen, and Wilfred were all absent at this time. To be more precise, they had been detained by the young master of the main fami
Morrow, who was seated in an armchair, coughed violently at this moment. He covered his mouth and nose with the white handkerchief in his hand. He finally caught his breath after a long while. Then, he said weakly, “Since the chieftain is not around, the few of us can’t decide on this matter even if we discuss it.” Hearing this, Wade became anxious. He stood in the middle of the hall with his hands behind his back and said angrily, “Morrow, you’re too timid! That brat from the main family is already riding on our heads. Why should we put up with it? Three of our brothers are in Philip’s hands right now. Now, even Sixth Uncle has been made into a cripple by that kid! He’s blatantly slapping us in the face and declaring war on us!” “Yes, Morrow! If we tolerate it this time, Philip will enter the memorial hall to pay respects to the ancestors without obstructions. When that happens, he’ll officially become the heir of the main family and become the crown prince. If we do anything to
Morrow stood up with the help of his servants. He was looking at the sky on the horizon when his legs suddenly felt very sore and he started to cough violently. Cough, cough! “Oh, Old Master Morrow, you're coughing up blood!” The servant next to him saw the bloodstained white handkerchief in Morrow’s hand and shouted in alarm, “Someone, quickly call for Dr. Garfield Gates!” Morrow looked past the door frame at the sky. The layers of dark clouds rolling in from the distance made him panic. “The weather is about to change.” Morrow mumbled this sentence under his breath before he coughed violently and passed out. The servants turned pale with fright and quickly called for medical staff. … On the other hand, Wade had returned to his residence and was standing in the hall with three men in front of him. They were wearing uniformed black steel armor branded with a tiger pattern, black steel helmets, steel-toe boots, and had tiger-patterned sabers at their waists. They were
Hearing that, Philip frowned as he patted Wynn on the shoulder and said, “I’ll go out for a moment.” Wynn glanced back and asked worriedly, “Is there a problem?” Philip shook his head, kissed her on the forehead, and said, “It’s fine. I’ll be back soon.” After that, Philip left the nursery and walked into the hall. In the hall, several people from the law enforcement hall were standing arrogantly at this moment. Several pairs of eyes constantly scanned the hall, staring at the rare treasures. When Philip came out of the nursery, they pretended to be respectful and said with a bow, “Greetings, Young Master Philip. We hope you’re in good health.” Philip stuck his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced around randomly, and did not answer their pretentious greeting. He sat on the white sofa with his legs crossed, his eyes flowing with indifferent chills. He asked, “Why are you here? Just get to the point.” The man who took the lead looked very young and a little feminine. He w
Hearing that, Gerry furrowed his good-looking eyebrows as his eyes flickered with chills. Of course, the consequences would be three days of isolation and ten canes! One should not underestimate the ten canes. One’s legs could be broken! The offender would be struck with ten wooden canes until they broke! It was extremely harsh and strict! Thinking of this, Gerry resentfully accepted the tea from the servant and took a sip. Pfft! Instantly, Gerry spat the tea out and the subordinates behind him quickly followed suit! “What the hell is this?” Gerry’s face was full of suffering. This tea was very astringent and bitter, just like horse urine. Philip clapped his hands and laughed as he said, “It’s nothing. That pot is made with horse urine. How is it? Doesn’t it taste special?” Smack! Gerry flew into a rage when he heard this. He smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground, pointed at Philip, and shouted, “Philip Clarke, you arrogant and cocky guy! How dare you mes
“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
