Ella was furious at Philip’s aloof reaction. Philip did not have a good impression of Ella. Besides, she always liked to badmouth him. However, everything was in the past, and Philip had no intention of holding a grudge against her. With Philip disregarding her, Ella felt that her dignity was ruffled. In Ella’s opinion, if Philip was from a wealthy family, it would be acceptable if he looked down on her. However, now that the Clarke family was gone, Philip was nothing but a sore loser! How dare he speak to her so arrogantly? When energy first revived back then, many people moved to this city. She did not expect to see Philip too. What bad luck! Unlike Philip, she came here looking for a job, while Philip must be on the run! Their status was different now. She was a distinguished woman waiting to marry into a wealthy family. What about Philip? He was nothing but a rat on the streets! Feeling angry, Ella's scowl grew bigger. Tania noticed her expression and deci
Tania stared at Preston blankly, at a loss of what to do. “You loser! You dare to look for help? How dare you mess with us?!” Tania rushed forward and grabbed Preston. “Security, come quickly! Someone is assaulting my friend!” Not many people noticed the commotion here, but Tania’s shout attracted everyone’s attention. Those who had not entered the venue quickly came over to watch the excitement, while some came out from the venue too. Tania grabbed a random onlooker. “Sir, you should have seen everything just now. They hurt my friend first!” Tania delicately leaned against the other party as she spoke. This guy was just an ordinary rich man who tagged along with his friends. Faced with Tania’s charms, he quickly fell under her spell. Several other men who wanted to please the beautiful women also stepped forward. They accused Philip and Preston and expressed their willingness to stand up for justice. Preston glanced at Philip with a hint of question in his eyes.
As attendants, Tania and Ella should be taking care of the guests at this moment. Instead, they had a conflict with the guests at the entrance and were beaten to a pulp. This would greatly impact the reputation of the Nonagon Hotel! If their competitors got hold of evidence about this incident and contacted the media to kick up a big fuss, they would be doomed. “Captain, you must speak up for us. This guy beat us for no reason. He doesn’t respect us at all!” Tania said fiercely. She hated Philip and Preston with all her heart now. Ella struggled to stand up. She felt that her ribs were broken, but in order to get Philip into trouble, she chose to endure the pain. “This guy refused to keep his hands to himself and even hit me!” Ella got the job here with the help of one of her ex-boyfriends. Although they had broken up, she still worked as an attendant. Everyone knew that she had a relationship with someone from the hotel’s management team, so they always tried to plea
Clarence was shocked to discover that he had messed with a legendary figure! Even though they were from the same city, he did not know much about this family. However, everyone knew that the Stein family was full of outstanding doctors. He simply could not afford to mess with such a family. The security captain’s knees went weak. Tania trembled with anger too. She just wanted to find a rich husband, but Ella tricked her. If she had known that this young man was the young master of the Stein family, she would not have dared to join in the fun no matter what. The young master of the Stein family was no simple matter! The Steins were a practitioner family on top of being wealthy. These people would kill without batting an eye, and messing with them meant death. Even the security captain's legs trembled. This young master rarely appeared in public, so it was normal that he was not able to recognize him. Seeing how Preston fawned over Philip, no one dared to check out
This card was very valuable as the hotel had only issued six of them so far. The manager had told Clarence to give the card to another young master, but due to the current situation, he decided to use it to please Philip instead. In any case, the Stein family fit the criteria to receive a black card. Moreover, it was being given to a man whom Young Master Stein respected so much. At this time, Sandra approached from a distance. She was here as the female companion of a young master. However, the young master entered the venue first, while she stayed behind to help him solve a financial problem. Sandra noticed the commotion and wanted to watch the excitement. She recognized Philip at a glance. Philip was so handsome that Sandra could not get him out of her mind. She thought that they would not meet again, but here he was. Sandra saw Philip accepting the black card and was surprised. Even the young master she accompanied today could not get his hands on the hotel’
Preston watched this scene with interest. Preston knew that Philip was a good man who loved his wife very much, so he was interested to watch Philip’s reaction. Philip shook his head helplessly and smacked his student on his head. “If I want anything, I can buy it myself. Thanks for your offer.” Philip walked to his seat. The Stein family owned a large area at the auction to display the family’s status. Sandra was surprised by Philip’s rejection. Based on her past experience, no man would refuse a free lunch. Philip was different from everyone else and rejected her offer to spend money on him. Sandra frowned and instantly felt that Philip was a tough cookie. However, Sandra was confident that she could deal with Philip. “I don’t think I’ll buy anything. You may return to your seat.” Philip stopped Sandra from following him. Preston smothered his laugh, while Sandra scowled. She did not expect that Philip would be so direct. Sandra wanted to take this oppor
Nat’s family was a new rising star. They obtained a technique by chance and became a practitioner family. Nat became friends with the manager of the Nonagon Hotel during a party and finally persuaded the latter to give him a card. Now that he was about to receive the card, it was given to someone else instead! Clarence was extremely flustered. He thought that he could use this card to please the Stein family, but this action caused more trouble instead. If Nat fought head-on with Philip, the auction would be a wreck. However, Clarence could not stop Nat no matter what he did. The auction had not officially started yet. Only Philip and Preston sat in the VIP area. Nat naturally targeted them. “Did one of you take my card?” Nat asked rudely. Before this, he had no right to challenge these young masters, but he was a practitioner now. His family had been classified as a practitioner family. They were an existence that no ordinary people would dare to mess with! With
When the situation reached a deadlock, a man in a suit and leather shoes walked in from the door. He looked at Philip thoughtfully with a hint of contempt in his eyes. Obviously, he did not take this young man seriously. He was Rocco, the manager of the Nonagon Hotel and also the person in charge. His family owned many businesses, and this hotel was one of the flagships. Hence, Rocco had developed a sense of superiority and paid no heed to an unknown person like Philip. Besides, Nat was his friend, and messing with his friend was an unforgivable act. “Who are you?” Rocco said unhappily, upset that an ordinary person would dare to steal Nat’s black card! “This card is not something ordinary people can hold! You must be so blindly confident that you've forgotten your position!” Rocco shouted at Philip angrily. Preston was furious at his disparaging attitude. This guy was too arrogant for words. The Stein family chose to remain hidden from the public, so they always
“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
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“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
