Philip snorted and swung the baton in his hand, which made Jake stagger back in fright. He shouted in agitation, “W-What are you doing?” Philip chuckled and said, “Young Master Seely, don’t be nervous. If I wanted to hit you, I’d have done so much earlier. I don't want to cause trouble. The medical expenses of these people will be 500,000 each. I’ll give you five million.” Five million? Whoa, what a haughty tone! Jake snorted and said, “Hey, loser, are you serious? Five million? How can a loser like you come up with five million? How rich can you be if you came to Jumbo Bar for beer?” Upon hearing Philip’s remarks, Cindy and the others also sarcastically said, “Hmph, five million? You can't even order a bottle of champagne. How can you afford five million?” “That’s right! Four beggars are drinking beer here, yet they still have the guts to pretend.” “Young Master Seely, I say you should just call the guards of your Seely family directly and capture these losers!” Faced
At Jake’s remark, the men and women around him knew that the young master of the Seely family was ready to teach these people a lesson! Cindy and the other women mocked. “Young Master Seely, don’t waste time with them. Just lock them up and torture them properly!” Jake thought so too. He covered his nose which had finally stopped bleeding with a tissue and sneered grimly. He glared at Philip and said smugly, “Idiot, do you think you’re amazing just because you have some money? Are you pretending to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing? Who do you want to frighten by bringing out five million? Let me tell you, I’m not short of this money! I’ll buy your right hand with this five million!” Jake shouted fiercely, his eyes full of anger. By now, Philip’s patience had reached its limit. Putting his hands in his trouser pockets, he looked at Jake and asked, “Young Master Seely, are you saying that you won’t give up until you break my right hand?” “Of course! It’s the first time I’ve been b
At this time, Philip coldly raised his eyebrows and looked indifferently at the team of eight guards. He said, “You’re armed guards, after all. How could you arrest people without rhyme or reason like this?” Faced with Philip’s question, Captain Song, who led the team, frowned and said, “Excuse me, but you have no right to question our code of conduct! We’re the guards of the Seely family and follow the orders of the Seely family! Take them down!” In an instant, a few guns were aimed at the heads of Philip and the other three. Philip’s eyes were icy cold as he turned his head to look at Fennel, Ethan, and Rick. He said, “It seems that we’re too low-key.” At this moment, Ethan sneered and said, “Bro, I say we should just bring people to destroy this so-called Seely family. Why should we talk crap with them? Since they dare to use guns on us, they can’t blame us.” Philip thought about it and said, “We just came to Beechwood City. It's better not to cause too much trouble. After
At the same time, the earlier conversation between Philip and Ethan flashed in Captain Song’s mind. They could destroy the Seely family in ten minutes. Now, Captain Song could not help but tremble. He suddenly felt that these people were not joking! Their skills were definitely not ordinary, and the forces behind them might be very strong! If they really wanted to destroy the Seely family, it might not be impossible! Thus, in an instant, Captain Song took two steps back and shielded Jake to prevent the other party’s sudden attack! After all, his duty was to protect Jake Seely! If anything happened to Jake, he would definitely face the wrath of the head of the Seely family! Philip smiled indifferently as he fiddled with the pistol he had snatched from a guard. He said, “I don't like big guns very much. This pistol is quite good. An Italian Beretta 92F series with 9mm Parabellum. It’s 8.5 inches in length with an empty cartridge weight of two pounds. The muzzle velocity
“Young Master, we really need to reconsider this matter at length. Let’s do this. Let me send you back and I’ll ask the old master for his opinion.” Before Fred confirmed the identities of Philip and his gang, he dared not take any risks. That was because their display just now had frightened Fred. Bang! At this moment, Jake lifted his leg and kicked Fred violently in the stomach, sending him flying. Then, he pulled out the pistol from his waist, pointed it at Fred, and shouted, “Damn it, Fred Song! Are you on their side? How dare you stop me? I’m telling you that I’m getting rid of them tonight! Let’s see what backgrounds they have!” After yelling, Jake turned around with the loaded gun in his hand and waved it at Philip and the others. He yelled, “Kid, weren't you very cocky just now? Why don’t you go on? As long as you dare to move, I’ll kill you!” Philip raised his eyebrows and looked at Jake in silence. With a biting chill in his eyes, he said, “Are you sure you want
Stanley’s appearance instantly ignited the atmosphere in the bar! All the onlookers were dumbfounded as they looked at the handsome guy. The reason was none other than that he was the eldest young master behind the Jumbo Bar! The young master of the Berry family, Stanley Berry! In the North, the Berry family was one of the top largest families! The legend among all families! The Berry family rarely made public appearances in the outside world or created any influence. That was because the Berry family had strict family rules that did not allow family members to be too conspicuous. However, no matter how strict the family rules were, it could not stop the reputation of the Berry family from spreading among the top families. As for Stanley Berry, he was one of the few Berry family members with an influence in the secular world. At this moment, Stanley looked arrogantly at Jake who was begging on the floor before he looked at Philip and said with a smile, “Young Patria
However, as soon as Philip and the others got up, the special bodyguards behind Stanley blocked their way. Stanley said blandly, “Young Patriarch Clarke, you’re being too disrespectful to me. As the young patriarch of the Clarke family, are you afraid of me?” After saying this, Stanley was full of arrogance. Philip frowned, his eyes full of chills as he glanced at the four special bodyguards of the Berry family who were blocking the way. “Do you want to stop me too?” Philip said coldly. Behind him, Fennel, Ethan, and Rick stood up at the same time with cold gazes. The few bodyguards with special identities on the opposite side did not give in at all. They said coldly, “Our young master is inviting all of you to have a seat in the private room. This way, please.” That was a bit domineering. With murderous intent in his eyes, Philip said coldly, “What if I refuse?” In an instant, a fierce killing intent poured from Philip! The atmosphere in the surroundings immediatel
Stanley chuckled, turned around, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and swaggered away. He left the first floor of the bar and walked to a very luxurious private room on the second floor. It was the largest and most extravagant private room in Jumbo Bar with a complete view of the entire bar! It was also why Stanley had noticed the dispute between Philip and Jake earlier on. Soon, they arrived at the private room. Stanley sat down, cheerfully poured a few glasses of specially brewed whisky for Philip and the others, and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, please have a seat.” Hearing that, Philip was not afraid and walked in. He sat down but did not take the glass from Stanley. “Just say what you need to. I don’t think there’s anything to discuss between us,” Philip said coldly. Stanley shrugged, leaned back, and said directly, “Young Patriarch Clarke, my father may not have a good impression of you, but I’m different. I hope we can be friends, close friends.” Hearing thi
Meanwhile, backstage at Moon Tavern, the waiter was telling the woman singing on stage earlier about what had happened in the private room. The woman was full of disbelief, thinking the waiter was lying. “Don’t try to bluff me. How could anyone resist my attack?” The woman wore a veil on her face and looked very mysterious. Only the woman knew how disgusting she looked when she was not performing or casting spells. Covering her face was the best choice. The waiter told her what happened and described the state Philip and the others were in earlier. Although two people were affected, it was a problem because one person had remained conscious.They would face a lot of problems if other people discovered their tricks. The woman's tricks were extraordinary. Even a powerful person with superb strength would find it difficult to get rid of her attack. These so-called strong experts would only end up falling for her trick. At this time, the storyteller went on stage, and he was t
Philip nodded. “Do I have to order something else?” A hint of realization flashed in Philip’s eyes. He realized what was going on. The woman had the ability to bewitch the customers by affecting their thinking and emotions through singing and inducing them into spending money. She exuded a special charm to attract the customers even though she looked ordinary. In their minds, she was an unattainable goddess. Everyone saw a different woman in their minds but charming nonetheless, tempting them to spend money on her even though it would cost them all their fortune. However, Philip was different. He could control his emotions very well, so this woman had almost no influence on him. He realized this problem when he first heard that mysterious song. The waiter scowled and finally left the private room in horror after much deliberation. Philip did not say anything at his hasty departure. The woman quickly left the stage after playing her zither, and the bewitched customers
“Something is wrong. I find that woman a little weird.” Hearing that, they were curious to find out how Philip concluded that. “Although she’s not that good-looking, I don’t think she’s weird. What do you think is wrong with her?” Carlos said in puzzlement, wondering why Philip felt that this woman was weird. “The woman seems to have a fatal attraction to the male customers. It’s a scary ability to make these men flock to her.” It was weird that a woman with average looks could attract so many men. No one would believe that she had a strong appeal. “Welcome to Moon Tavern. I’ll be singing a song for you today. I hope you like it.” The woman's delicate voice rang, and everyone felt relaxed and happy. Even Philip felt that this voice was very charming, like the sound of nature ringing in his ears. However, Philip was not a fool. He keenly sensed something wrong with the situation. Nothing would be charming enough to attract him. For it to happen meant that something was wro
“Give us three pots of tea. We don’t need anything else. Thank you.” Philip did not order anything else. In his opinion, he was just here to find information, so his money should be spent on things that mattered the most. The waiter rolled his eyes at the order and seemed to look down on Philip. “Customers, are you sure you only want a few pots of tea? We have many snacks too,” the waiter said in disdain. Carlos was more concerned about his image, so he was shocked by the waiter’s obvious disdain. “Yes, we only need a pot of tea each. We want to have a taste first.” Adam's attitude was much better, speaking with a friendly smile on his face. Even if the waiter was angry, he could do nothing about it. The waiter left cursing under his breath. He thought that they were big customers, but they did not even give him a tip. Philip glanced at the waiter helplessly. Even waiters were so arrogant nowadays. Philip and the others were quickly served three pots of tea. The pots
Philip was not afraid at all. He knew that someone would target him, but they were just losers. They might be influential, but they were nothing in his eyes. He did not want to cause trouble, but it did not mean he would let anyone insult him. Philip and the others quickly found a tavern that looked quite high-end. “This place looks interesting.” Philip found the various decorations quite novel and knew it would not be cheap. “I don’t think it’s so easy to find any important information here. Just look at the customers and you’ll know that we’ll spend a bomb,” Carlos marveled at the price tag. Adam looked at the menu curiously and was quickly surprised to see how expensive it was for a pot of tea. “A pot of tea costs thousands of crystals?” Adam almost had a meltdown at the price. “Look at the requirements stated on the menu. Each person has to order a minimum of a pot of tea. Anything less than that and we’re not welcomed.” Adam shook his head helplessly and suddenly
“It’ll take a long time for this little fox to become a human. I think you would've found your other half before that happened.” After exchanging some pleasantries, Philip bade farewell to the shopkeeper and left without further ado. They had to hurry up to find the person Adam was looking for.… Meanwhile, Luther hurried back home unhappily. He never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation one day. As soon as he returned home, a man greeted him. It was none other than his father, who doted on his son. “What's wrong?” He was surprised to see his son ignoring him. His son was always flashy and arrogant, so his behavior was quite unusual. Luther was in no mood to pay attention to his father. He returned to the room angrily without saying a word. “Guard, what’s going on? Did someone bully my son?” Luther's father, Klein, glared at the guard unhappily, blaming the guard for everything. The guard kneeled in fear and felt sorry for himself. “The young sir was brows
The shopkeeper was clearly relieved by Philip’s remark and direct approach. However, he was also embarrassed by Philip’s bluntness. He smiled at Philip awkwardly as an apology. “Why don’t you recommend a pet for my buddy? It should be a stronger one, preferably a combat type!” Philip glanced at Carlos. He knew that Carlos was too embarrassed to take the initiative. Carlos looked at Philip gratefully, letting out a shy chuckle. The shopkeeper recommended several pets to them. Carlos was dazzled by the sight and wanted them all. Adam looked at the scene with satisfaction. Although he had a high position, he did not have a decent pet either. It was difficult to have a pet in their world. With a wave of his hand, Philip generously bought a pet for each of them. At this time, Philip heard a whine from somewhere. He turned his head curiously and looked for the source of the sound. “What’s that noise?” Philip looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, unable to find the source of
Luther was at a loss for how to react. If the rabbit could speak, it had to be stronger than his pet. Although his pet was very powerful, it was just an ordinary creature that could understand some basic instructions and handle normal interactions. A talking pet was simply to die for. “Wow, how can that monster pet speak? It’s a force to be reckoned with.” Luther was shocked to see a talking pet. It was enviable to have such a powerful monster. Before this, he mocked the rabbit for not having any ability, but the tide had turned. He was almost going crazy with jealousy and wished that he could take the rabbit for himself. “I didn't bring my pet along, so I’m afraid I can’t show it to you. Losers like you don’t deserve to see my pet.” Luther acted full of snobbery and disdain, but he clutched his purse awkwardly. In fact, not only did he bring his pet out, but he had also been ready to show it off at any time. After all, his pet was very powerful and could grow bigger or sma
Philip was annoyed by the guy’s ridicule and simply wanted to keep a distance from him. “I don’t care who you are. I don’t want to pay attention to a loser.” After saying this, Philip could not wait to leave this disgusting place. He felt sick at the sight of the guy’s ugly face. Carlos lost the mood to watch the fun. He shook his head helplessly and turned around to leave. However, that guy was used to getting his way. He did not plan to let them leave in one piece. Anyone who offended him had to die. “Surround him. Don’t let him run away!” The man glared at Philip with disdain, sure that Philip would die. Philip was quickly surrounded by a large group of people. They were angry that Philip dared to go against their boss. “Who are you? Where did you come from? How dare you disobey our boss? Didn't he tell you to stop?” a guard yelled angrily. He was clearly a competent lackey, loudly accusing Philip as if he was going to stand up for his boss. “What are you looking at?
