Chloe walked in with grimness in her eyes. She glanced at the villa before her eyes fell on Philip and asked, “Why? Can't I visit my goddaughter and godson?” Philip frowned and looked at Chloe, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed. Then, he silently poured a glass of water for Chloe and said, “Just say what you have to say.” Chloe looked at Philip and said with a small smile, “Philip, is it necessary for you to be so distant from me now? Can’t we even pretend to be good friends?” Philip inhaled and said, “You should understand that I’m married with two kids. I love Wynn. These are the facts that won’t change.” Chloe’s eyes dimmed. After a moment of silence, she said, “You really won't consider me?” Philip glanced at Chloe's bright eyes and was about to say no when Chloe seemed to have expected his answer. She quickly laughed and interrupted, “Okay, I know what you’re going to say. Don't say it. I understand.” Then, Chloe seemed to hold back the tears in her e
“Avis Club?” Philip was puzzled. Chloe raised her eyebrow and said with a laugh, “You should know the owner of Avis Club. Her name is Yana Young. Goodbye, then.” With that said, Chloe left the villa. On this side, Philip’s face darkened. Did Yana contact Wynn? With that thought, he quickly dialed Wynn’s number but it went unanswered. A sense of foreboding suddenly appeared. Without further ado, Philip hurried to Beacon Group. At this moment, scattered files were all over Wynn’s desk. She stood in front of the large French windows with a gloomy face and her arms crossed over her chest. There was disbelief and anger in her eyes. Boom! The door of the chairwoman's office was pushed open as Philip rushed over in a hurry. Panting heavily, he shouted, “Wynnie…” Then, his eyes fell on the information on the desk. He walked over, picked up a few copies, and glanced at them. His eyes suddenly showed a deep chill. He looked at Wynn who had her back turned to him and explain
Philip’s eyes flickered with killing intent! Yana Young! As expected, this woman was up to no good! Philip left Beacon Group and headed to Avis Club, wanting to seek Yana for an explanation. However, when Philip arrived at the entrance of Avis Club, he found that the club was already closed. He tried to dial Yana’s number but it went unanswered. He had been set up by this woman! With anger in his heart, Philip quickly dialed George’s number and said coldly, “Issue a global kill order for Yana Young!” George immediately replied respectfully, “Young Lord, I’ll arrange it right away.” After hanging up the phone, George broke out in a cold sweat. He had just finished arranging the main family’s guards, and now there was a kill order. The young lord was really too busy. Soon, the Clarke family of Arcadia Island issued a global kill order and the target was an extremely charming woman. At once, all the world's active assassin organizations got to work in secret. Amo
At the sight of this person, Yana bowed and said respectfully, “Godfather.” The old man hummed, sat on the sofa, looked at Yana, and asked, “How are the preparations going?” Yana quickly made a cup of tea, handed it to Sade, and said, “Godfather, the preparations are almost complete. Philip will go abroad within these two days, and Riverdale will be free. When that happens, it’ll be a good time for us to strike.” Sade took a sip of tea, nodded, looked at Yana quite fondly, and said, “You’re the person I chose, the pawn I sent to the Lovelace family, and the one I single-handedly placed in the Alliance. You have suffered all these years. When this matter is over, I’ll give you your freedom.” Hearing this, a deeply hidden glint of excitement flashed in Yana’s eyes, but it soon dimmed. She knelt in front of Sade and said with a bow, “As long as you need me, I’m willing to offer myself, including my life.” Sade nodded with satisfaction and asked, “What did the Lovelace family s
After the person caught the pouch, a faint trace of arrogance flashed in his eyes. Then, his figure turned into a black shadow as he disappeared into the mountains. Soon, several guards rushed out from the villa and hurried to the place where the accident happened. Seeing the three guards on the ground with their necks slashed open, their faces were full of shock! “Report to the boss immediately. We’ve lost the pouch!” Soon, Yana, who was in the main hall of the villa, received a report from the servants. She jumped up at once, smashed many things, and said angrily, “Damn it! Who was it?” The captain of the guards kneeling on the floor replied, “Looking at the wounds on the bodies, they must have died after getting slashed on their throats! Such speed, strength, and accuracy… As far as I know, something like this can only be done by the Seven Swordsmen of Fusha.” “The Seven Swordsmen of Fusha? Why would someone from Fusha appear here?” Yana reacted immediately, her expr
Philip immediately reacted and quickly asked, “Do you know where they went?” Mindy replied, “I think they went to Golden City to attend some party. I’m not quite sure either. Didn’t Wynn tell you?” Philip frowned and assured Mindy that everything was okay before he quickly left Beacon. He contacted Theo to get someone to send him to Golden City. Shane had found Wynn and brought her to Golden City with the excuse of attending a party. There must be some conspiracy here! Theo personally drove his Maybach and picked Philip up to go to Golden City. At the same time, Philip also contacted the manpower arranged by the Clarke family in Golden City through George. They quickly locked on the target. A global business event that involved businesses and industries from all over the world, as well as affluent families was going to be held at the largest and most luxurious Zodiac Palace in Golden City. However, according to the information from George, this event was a party only on t
The Lovelace family? Giada looked at Shane with a frown as many thoughts crossed her mind. Then, she suddenly pursed her lips and smiled. Reaching out her hand, she said, “Hello, Young Master Lovelace.” Shane glanced at Giada’s outstretched hand and said with a sneer, “There’s no need. I have my affairs to deal with today. I don’t need your company.” His words made Giada a little unhappy. For the party at Zodiac Palace tonight, her Wallis family of Golden City was the host, the initiator, and the executor. How dare Shane Lovelace treat her with such an attitude? The Lovelace family was amazing, indeed! This was a family that lived in the shadows like a rat. She never expected that they would show their faces one day! “Young Master Lovelace, are you also here to attend the disciple meeting?” Giada asked with a smirk. Shane frowned, looked at Giada, and said, “Madam Wallis, you’re certainly worthy of being the young lady of the Wallis family, which is the largest fami
As he stepped into the main hall, few people paid attention to Philip as there were simply too many people present. Besides, he was dressed quite casually. He stood in the crowd and kept looking around, searching for Wynn. Soon, he saw a woman who resembled Wynn. She was following a man into the depths of Zodiac Palace! Philip wanted to go after her but he was stopped by some guards. Shane seemed to sense Philip at this moment. When he looked back, they were dozens of meters apart and were separated by many guests in the middle who were queuing to enter the inner hall. Shane sneered and raised his eyebrow. Then, he turned around and put his arm on Wynn’s shoulder in a deliberate attempt to provoke Philip. He then walked inside with Wynn. Philip was dying of anxiety and wanted to force his way inside. However, several guards stopped Philip and said, “Sir, I'm sorry, only VIPs are allowed to enter. Please show us your invitation.” Philip’s eyes turned cold. He looked at
“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
