Chapter 2553

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
Philip did not continue his line of questioning, and Fennel quickly left the manor.

During this time, Philip remained in the manor and kept guard at the entrance leading to the secret chamber.

He could sense the vast, chaotic energy and power of rules inside the secret chamber.

His father’s condition was not that good.

Half a day later, Fennel returned. His expression changed rapidly as if he was heavily burdened.

“So, what did you find out?” Philip sat on the sofa in the living room and asked.

Fennel sat down, drank a cup of tea, and said, “The situation is not too good. Zeus is in seclusion now. According to the information from the scouts, Zeus’ injuries are not light. The sacred city is under martial law now, and the fight between Leo and Amos has moved from the dark out into the open. The sacred city has been divided into two forces. They’re now in the process of seizing the power of the chief god.”

Hearing this, Philip fell silent. After thinking for a while, he sai

    With a smile on his face and looking as handsome as ever, Steven spread his arms as soon as he entered. He exclaimed, “Oh, Young Patriarch Clarke, Lord Apollo, it's good to see you again.” Philip embraced Steven slightly, but Fennel declined. Steven was not concerned and merely smiled. Philip asked, “Steven, how did you find this place?” Steven raised his eyebrows and said, “I’m here to send you some intelligence, of course.” Intelligence? “Information about my sister?” Philip was full of excitement. Steven nodded and took out a delicate small box from his pocket. He opened the small box, and inside was a USB flash drive. He said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, this is the information about that organization collected by our Smith family. However, I must state in advance that this is only a part of the information. I have no access to further information. I need to go back and ask my father for his opinion.” Philip frowned and said with a laugh, “Steven, your Smith family i

    This declaration revealed Philip’s determination. He chose to prepare for a long struggle with that organization in the following days. According to Steven’s information, that organization was very pervasive with large and complex forces. He could not strike easily or it would cause unnecessary trouble. Steven smiled and said, “By the way, Young Patriarch Clarke, Lord Apollo, there’ll be a private party tonight. I wonder if you two are interested in attending.” Philip shook his head and refused. “I still have some personal matters to attend to, so I won't be going.” Fennel also refused. Steven smiled and said, “No, Young Patriarch Clarke, you must attend. Do you know what this private party is about?” Philip was at a loss and frowned. He looked at Steven and asked, “What do you mean?” Steven said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, don't you want to learn about the Lovelace family?” The Lovelace family? Philip’s eyes suddenly became solemn as he asked, “The party tonight, i

    Fennel nodded inwardly and said, “The Lovelace family seems to be quite powerful. To have such a large castle and invite so many people, it seems that they’re determined to get the position of the new god.” Steven stood next to the two and said, “The Lovelace family is quite influential in the West, and they do stand a chance for the god position. Especially Shane. He reached the realm of the gods long ago. According to the Smith family's intelligence, his chances of becoming the new god are on par with the Underground Bounty Society. He’s the most popular candidate right now.” Philip nodded inwardly. The Lovelace family had almost disappeared from the country, but unexpectedly, they were doing quite well in the West. “This way, please.” Steven made an inviting gesture. The three walked inside. Soon after, an uncanny laugh came from behind them. “Hehe, Steven, how dare you show up here?” The three of them looked back and saw Louis XXVI from Kester Manor walking toward

    Louis XXVI was startled by that slap. Next to him, Alice was also shocked. She covered her mouth, and her eyes popped wide open. “Louis, are you alright?” Alice still cared about Louis XXVI and quickly stepped forward. She held his arm and asked with concern. At the same time, she stared at Philip angrily and scolded, “Why did you hit Louis? Although he said something rude, you can't hit him like that! He’s the youngest duke in Country Y and my future husband!” After saying that, Alice stared at Steven with resentment in her eyes and said, “Steven, I had changed my mind about you at first and wanted to give you a chance. But seeing as how you’re hanging out with such a reckless and rowdy Easterner, I’m disappointed in you! You’re as mean and hateful as they are!” Alice reprimanded Steven, causing Steven's face to turn ugly and aggrieved. He did not expect Alice to act this way, which completely overturned the image he had of her as a sublime goddess in his mind. The cur

    At this moment, Louis XXVI arrogantly pointed at Philip and roared. “Damn it, you must apologize to me in front of everyone! I’ll also break that hand of yours! That’s the price of your disrespect to me!” However, Philip stared indifferently at the furious Louis and said, “Duke Louis, in my opinion, you’re nothing more than an ordinary person. Your so-called dukedom poses no threat to me at all.” “What? How dare you look down on the Louis royal family?” Louis roared. Beside him, Alice also chided. Seeing this scene, Steven's heart was broken. Fennel gently patted Steven's shoulder and said, “Steven, you must understand that in Alice's eyes, you may not be worth a dime. Don’t cheapen your love. Since she looks down on you as a viscount, why do you still want to be her lapdog? There are plenty of good women in this world. You should learn to give up.” Steven glanced at Fennel before he looked at Alice, who had completely lost her poise as a princess and started spewing curses

    Philip, Fennel, and Steven gave the high and mighty Louis XXVI a thorough beating! The youngest duke of Country Y had lost his entire noble image and fell to the ground wretchedly. He covered his head and shouted desperately. “Ow, f*ck, stop! I'm Duke Louis XXVI! Steven, you damned viscount! This is insubordination! You're finished! Your Smith family is finished!” Louis XXVI roared. “I must return and tell the Queen about this! I want the Queen to revoke the noble rights of your Smith family!” “Louis XXVI, you b*stard, how dare you threaten me? I’ll kick you to death!” Steven was furious. Once he started, he could not stop. He lifted his foot and kicked Louis XXVI, who was lying on the ground covering his head. He cursed, “Do you want to complain about me? Do you think the Smith family can be messed with?” In the face of Steven's ferocity, the onlookers erupted in discussions. “Oh my, what did I see?” “Steven is so scary. He even dares to beat Duke Louis?” “It’s ove

    Steven smiled, nodded in response, and said, “I'd better call you Mr. Clarke.” Philip was not bothered. They stood at the entrance of the castle and watched the intoxicating pool party inside. Many prominent figures in the West were at the scene, mingling and chatting. Philip and the others also found a corner and sat down for the time being. A waiter walked over and served them wine. Philip looked at the frolicking crowd nearby, then asked Fennel and Steven in a low voice, “Is the private event tonight this pool party? Is the election of the gods such child’s play in the West?” Without waiting for Fennel to speak, Steven explained, “Mr. Clarke, you’ve misunderstood. This is just an appetizer before the private party. The main event will come later. What you see now is just the prelude. The real big shots are usually inside.” As Steven said that, he motioned with his eyes for Philip and Fennel to look at the second floor of the splendid castle. Philip looked up. Indeed,

    At this moment, Wynn and Shane appeared together, looking dazzling and noble under the spotlight. It was the first time that Philip saw such a noble and elegant side of Wynn. No, to be precise, Wynn in the past was very approachable. Even if she attended business events and dressed for the occasion, she would not look like this. That was because the current Wynn appeared to carry an unfamiliar sense of distance. Philip stood up abruptly, which startled Fennel and Steven beside him. Fennel took it in stride. He recognized Wynn, so when he saw Wynn and Shane walking out together, a chill flashed at the corner of his eyes. He asked, “Why is Wynn here?” Philip shook his head in bafflement, but it seemed that Wynn was here to attend this party. Steven smiled, got up, and said, “Mr. Clarke, this is the important person I said you may want to meet. According to my information, she’s your wife.” Steven did not yet understand the implications and only thought that Philip would b

    “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
