“S-She…”Bang bang!There were two consecutive gunshots!Philip quickly swung the man in front of him like a shield, and the two bullets sunk into the assassin’s back!His female colleague had made her move. Since her first attempt did not work, she did not linger, leaving in the blink of an eye.Philip frowned deeply, looking at the man in shades. The latter was lying on the ground with blood bubbling out of his mouth, so Philip knew that he was not getting any answers there.He quickly called Rick and soon found his answer.Curse that Marcus Quaid!Curse the entire Quaid family!Had the previous incident not taught them anything?!How dare they try something like this!…At a presidential suite at United International Hotel.“Hehe, give it up, Wynn. I promise I’ll treat you well.”Marcus was holding a piece of Wynn’s dress that he had torn off her body. He brought it to his nostrils and took a deep whiff before spreading his lips into a creepy grin.Wynn was all curled
He read the specter of death in Philip’s icy eyes. It was extremely vivid, as though Philip could kill him with a snap of his fingers!Why did he disobey Uncle Len? Why did he insist on opposing Philip?Marcus was filled with regret right now. He would gladly beg Philip for mercy on his knees.However, it was all futile now. He was still the second son of the Quaid family, the heir to their fortune. No, he had the right to be proud!He did not believe that Philip would actually kill him!“No way! You wouldn’t dare to kill me! I’m the second son of the Quaid family, I represent the Quaids!”Marcus roared, trying to catch the attention of the guards outside by yelling.However, it was all for naught. Rick had disposed of all the guards outside.“If you touch me, you’re making an enemy of the Quaid family. If anything happens to me, the entire family will come after your life! Trust me, we’re more than capable of that! No matter how strong you are, can you protect your family? Y
Philip carried Wynn out of the hotel.At the door, Rick gave them a glance before he left as well.Soon, Theo reached the scene, but what he saw immediately gave him a headache.That was the second young master of the Quaid family from Capital City!This was going to be a big deal!A storm was coming right for Riverdale soon.“What should we do, Theo? This is Master Marcus Quaid from Capital City.”Tiger stood next to Theo, his large body looking awkward as he scratched the back of his head helplessly.Theo frowned slightly, his eyes focused on Marcus, who lay unconscious in the room. He sighed in exasperation.“Send him away. Things will get messy soon, so tell our men to prepare.”Theo said, his expression determined.He was not going to betray Philip. Way back then, he had acknowledged Philip as his leader.Even if a bloody tragedy ensued, he was going to have Philip’s back!After that battle in the villa, Theo’s determination had only strengthened further.Meanwhile,
There was instant silence on the other end, followed by a wave of pressure like an earthquake!This was no trivial matter. It threatened the future of the Quaid family legacy!Furthermore, Marcus was the family’s brightest hope for the next generation.“Find out who did it, and kill them!”The voice on the other end roared with the aura of a king, followed by, “And send Marcus back here at once!”“Yes, sir!”Len responded and ended the call, wiping the cold sweat from his brow.Since the master had given him an order, he just had to carry it out.Capital City was a busy international metropolitan where cash and alcohol flowed freely.Right now, a few rays of moonlight were shining through the windows into a dark room in a villa. Inside, a young man in a wheelchair was looking out of the window expressionlessly. His gaze was dark, but no one could read what he was thinking.Just then, his phone rang. The handsome young man glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly. After
"His last name is Clarke, but he probably isn't from that group."The butler replied, but he did not say any more than that."Probably? Look into it again!"The middle-aged man lost interest in the topic and said calmly, "Keep a close eye on what the Quaids do now. If they try anything unusual, tell me immediately. As for that Philip Clarke fellow, try to keep him alive if possible.""Yes, sir."The butler left the room, leaving the middle-aged man alone in the large study. He continued to admire the painting on the wall, marveling at its beauty.However, just then, the door to the study flew open, and an old man leaning on a cane appeared at the door.The middle-aged man hurriedly ran to the old man and said respectfully, "Why did you come down here, Father? It's so late!"The old man sat on the couch and coughed softly before saying, "I hear that the Quaid's son was castrated?"This was Old Master Joo, the foundation of the Joo family and the person with the most say!He wa
In truth, she wanted to ask Philip how he was going to settle the problem with Marcus Quaid.After she thought it over, though, she decided to let it be. Her husband was pretty mysterious.He probably would not let her interfere.Wynn got up and cleaned herself up, changing into clean clothes. Only then did Philip run back into the room, all smiles.“Do you feel better now, Wynn honey?”Philip wiped his sweat with a towel and asked her with a chuckle.Today, Wynn was dressed like a girl next door, wearing some exercise clothes and her hair tied in a ponytail.“I’m fine.”Wynn said, doing a few simple stretches. She showed off her figure perfectly, giving Philip quite the knock-out punch this early in the morning!“Are you going out for a walk?”Philip guessed based on how Wynn was behaving. Was she still tormented by what happened yesterday?“Yeah. I’m going out jogging for a bit.”Wynn replied, leaving the villa without hesitation in a jog.“Hey, wait for me. I’ll come wit
He then turned around and looked at the distant lake surface, his expression turning dark. He curled the corners of his lips into a cold smile and then kicked off against the ground, dashing toward the lake.Everyone thought he was useless trash.What they did not know was that he was rich, powerful, and also an inhuman fighter!Although he was not as good as Rick, he was much better than most normal people and even some trained assassins!After all, Reed’s demonic training was no child’s play. It was practically a suicidal regiment!On the surface of the lake, the female assassin codenamed Rosa was also observing Philip at the same time. When she saw that he was rapidly running toward her, she was quite startled!Was he even still human?Not only did he run at breakneck speeds, he even ran in a Z-shaped trajectory, making him impossible to aim at!Bang bang!Rosa pulled the trigger several times in a row, but the bullets just missed him!Or rather, he deftly managed to dodge
Rosa was furious. She kicked the deck, jumped up with the momentum, and performed a somersault!Philip immediately pushed the irritable woman away and touched his neck. He was quite fortunate. He almost got his throat cut!“I say, do you need to take this so seriously?” Philip shrugged as he asked.Rosa squatted on the ground, her eyes glinting with cold light like a sword ready to launch!“Again?”In an instant, Rosa dashed out and her double sabers were aimed directly at Philip’s chest!Philip was annoyed this time. A chill spread over his eyes. Increasing his intensity, he flipped sideways and raised his knee for a block!When Rosa finally noticed that her opponent leaked a trace of frightening intent, it was already too late!She was knocked away by Philip’s knee, crashed on the cabin, and fell heavily on the deck. It took a long while before she could even move!Philip crossed his arms over his chest and looked on coldly as Rosa struggled on the ground. He had not held ba
“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
