The First Heir – Chapter 1841
Philip turned around, rolled his eyes at Fennel, and asked, “What did you do to the Dunley
family?” Fennel shrugged as he poured himself a glass of wine and said, “Nothing much, I just took
Spencer Dunley down.” Hiss!
Philip frowned and asked, “You took him down?” Fennel nodded before shaking his head again. “It wasn’t all me. It was the battle god at your
father’s side.”
“Fulton Hash?” Philip asked with a frown, “Why is he here?” Fennel said, “To clean up the mess.” Philip thought about it and did not dwell on the issue. He changed the topic and asked, “Was
that terrifying raging energy just now because of you and Spencer? What were the two giant
swords in the sky?” Fennel thought for a while, snapped his fingers, and asked, “Do you want to know?” Philip nodded and said, “Tell me quickly. What is it?”
Fennel pondered briefly and explained, “To summarize it simply, they’re called the Swords
of Kingship. They’re special energy fields formed by the kings of disciples using their own
power, also called the Swords of Damocles. They’re symbols of our identity and strength. The
more battered the sword, the more power that can be used by the king of disciples. At the
same time, it also means that the king of disciples will be on the verge of a possible rampage. Once that happens, the Sword of Kingship will fall, killing the king of the disciples while
destroying everything around it. This is the double edged sword of the power the kings of
disciples hold. Nonagon has been studying the method to counter this situation but to no
avail.” Philip frowned and felt that it was hard to accept this new information. “Between you and Spencer, who won?” Philip asked. “He has lost his source of kingship and has been reduced into an ordinary human,” Fennel
said lightly. “The source of kingship? What is that?” Philip asked. Fennel thought about it and replied, “All the kings of disciples are the chosen ones. To
become a king of disciples, one must have a special ability and also be recognized by some
special power behind the door. The source of kingship is the source of all the power of the
king of disciples. Without the source of kingship, the king will be no different from a normal
person.” Philip frowned as he inhaled sharply and did not speak for a while.
Fennel seemed to read Philip’s emotions and said, “In fact, this world is not the way you see
it. There are many things that I can’t explain to you in detail now. For some concepts that are
beyond the world you know, you’ll need to accept them as soon as possible.” Fennel also knew that Philip was digesting his words,so he sat silently without disturbing
him. After a long while, Philip asked, “When will you start teaching me to unleash my potential
and the rules for controlling matter?” Fennel looked at Philip and thought for a moment before saying, “I planned to look at your
potential today but the current situation is a little unbefitting. Let’s return to Uppercreek first. I need to find a few people to prepare some things.” Philip nodded in agreement before asking, “By the way, any updates about my sister?” Fennel shook his head and replied, “Not yet. The force behind your sister is a little
troublesome. We can’t just look at it from a secular perspective.”
“Does it have something to do with Nonagon?” Philip asked. Fennel nodded, leaned back on the sofa, and said, “The results of my current investigation
show that Nonagon must be the one operating behind the scenes. Moreover, your sister’s case
might also be related to your mother.”
“My mother?” Philip was puzzled.
Fennel hummed and said, “Didn’t you say the last time that your sister left something for
your daughter? You should go back and take a look at it. Maybe there are some clues.” Only then did Philip remember that when Hannah left without saying goodbye, she said that
she had left something for Mila. He did not think too much about it at that time. The gift
should still be with Mila. Without further delay, Philip and Fennel soon returned to Uppercreek.
The First Heir – Chapter 1842
He immediately went to the hospital to visit Anne. She was already out of danger and in good
condition. After that, he returned to the hotel. In the living room, he saw Wynn sitting together with
Martha and Charles. Seeing Philip’s return, Wynn quickly asked, “How is it? Did you catch the perpetrator?” Philip nodded and replied, “They’ve been caught. You can rest assured.” Wynn breathed a sigh of relief but blamed herself. “It’s all my fault. If not for me, Anne
wouldn’t have gotten hurt.” Philip gently patted Wynn’s shoulder and said, “Don’t blame yourself, it’s not your fault. Everything has been taken care of. Anne is already out of danger. Don’t worry about it.” At this moment, Martha, who sat on the side, pouted and said with contempt, “If I must say, that damned girl is better off dead. Back then, she even dared to yell at me. Bah!” Hearing this, Philip frowned. He turned his head, stared at Martha coldly, and said solemnly, “Don’t you think your words are too vicious?” When Martha heard that Philip dared to talk back to her, she immediately became angry and
cursed, “Philip, what do you mean? Do you treat me as an old woman sitting in a wheelchair
and no longer see me as your mother-in-law? Let me tell you, if not for the fact that Wynnie
is pregnant with the second child and you’ve got a little better, I wouldn’t show an ounce of
courtesy to a loser like you no matter what!” Philip raised his eyebrow, turned around, and walked toward Martha. Martha shuddered in fright at this scene. Especially when she saw Philip’s cold eyes looking
down on her, her fear welled from her heart. However, since Wynn and Charles were around, she did not need to be afraid of Philip. Martha glared and said fiercely, “What? Do you dare to hit me in front of my daughter?” Smack!
As soon as she said that, Philip raised his hand and slapped Martha while reprimanding, “I’ve
had enough of you. Don’t force me to do anything to you that I shouldn’t.” Charles shrank back at this slap and dared not make a sound. Wynn also frowned and said to Martha, “Mom, can you stop being so unreasonable?” Upon hearing this, Martha immediately cried and said, “Well, well, my son-in-law just hit
me but my daughter is blaming me for it instead. I can’t stay in this family any longer!” With that said, Martha yelled at Charles to push her out of the suite.
After they left, Wynn took Philip’s hand and said, “I’m sorry. I can’t figure out my mother
either.” Philip took a deep breath and said, “Tomorrow, I’ll get someone to send them back. Martin
Johnston won’t dare to act rashly in Riverdale for now.” Wynn nodded in agreement. ***
At night. The towering pointed building of Nonagon was heavily guarded. It was closely surrounded by
defensive facilities and combat groups. Like a tall pillar in the dark, the building stood under the starry night. Near the building, hovering helicopters patrolled constantly. At this moment, a green armored jeep stopped in front of the building. Chandler Curtis and Chief Montgomery got out of the vehicle one after another. After
verifying their identities, they passed through 16 guarded doors and arrived at the central
part of the building. At this moment, four men and women of varying ages were already sitting in the central
conference room that was equipped with modern and high-tech facilities. Everyone
possessed the aura of a superior being.
As Chandler entered, the five pavilion masters of the Nonagon gathered together.
The First Heir – Chapter 1843
After Chandler entered, Chief Montgomery stood behind him respectfully, not daring to say a
word. He might hold a high position in the central combat division, but here, he was just a
subordinate. Especially when facing these five pavilion masters, he was just an ordinary
person not worth mentioning. Chandler took his seat and said directly, “I believe everyone already knows, so let’s get right
to the point.”
“Chandler, for you to call a meeting with the five pavilions in such a hurry, is the kingship
incident in Hampton really that tricky?” The person who spoke was a woman in her 40s or 50s. She had a thin face and indifferent
eyes that displayed an air of superiority, just like a high priestess in a church. She wore a
purple robe embroidered with the pattern of a griffin soaring above flames. Behind her, a
man in the same purple robe stood respectfully. This middle-aged woman was none other than the master of Griffin Pavilion, Dahlia Una. She
held the honorary title of ‘Envoy Una’ in Nonagon. What happened to Fennel’s sister back then was caused by a directive issued by Envoy Una. She claimed that Fennel’s sister was the nemesis of the disciples and a blood sin. Hence, she
issued an order to trap her with a group of fellow explorers in the unexplored dark area
behind the door. This led to Fennel’s sister ending up as the sacrificial lamb and dying on the battlefield!
Chandler flicked a glance at her as a trace of ruthlessness flowed in his eyes. He motioned to
Chief Montgomery to enter all the monitoring data into the computer. Then, Chandler gestured to everyone to look at the 3D display on the conference table and
said, “This is all the monitoring data of the kingship power incident in Hampton. Pavilion
Master Una, what do you think of this incident?” Dahlia’s shapely eyebrows furrowed deeply as she stared at the data monitoring report. Waves of anger and murderous intent appeared on her face as she said gravely, “He’s nothing
but a defector of Nonagon. It’s already a gift to him that we allowed him to live until now.” Chandler added, “He’s the king of disciples in the fifth zone and also the most promising
candidate to enter the sixth zone. Pavilion Master Una, I have yet to figure out where the
blood sin that you mentioned back then came from.” Hearing Chandler questioning her, Dahlia’s expression changed imperceptibly. The corners
of her eyes trembled slightly as she said, “This is the business of my Griffin Pavilion. The
Turtle Pavilion has no right to question it yet.”
“That’s enough!” At this moment, a deep bellow interrupted the conversation between the two. “Pavilion Master Curtis, is it true what you said about the appearance of the king of disciples
in the seventh zone?” The speaker was a burly middle-aged man clad in white iron armor. This suit of armor was
branded with a roaring white tiger on the chest.
The middle-aged man clenched his fists that propped his chin up. He sat there like a

mountain. His eyes that were like copper bells could make one‘s heart palpitate. His copper
skin glowed with a dazzling luster, and his bulging muscles made people shudder. He was the master of Tiger Pavilion, Zayn Lowe. He was extremely fond of fighting!
Once, he fought his way through the sixth zone alone, opened up a safe area, and made a
great achievement. Among the five pavilion masters, he was recognized as the one with the
strongest combat power!
Of course, that was excluding the master of the Dragon Pavilion who had never made a
move. Chandler replied, “Pavilion Master Lowe, there’s no need for me to joke about this matter. This is the energy data monitoring report of the Hampton kingship power incident. The
energy of the third Sword of Kingship exceeded the monitoring authority of our central
combat division. According to the on-site data monitoring and comparison, the third king of
disciples who appeared was none other than the battle god who followed that person back
then, Fulton Hash.”
The First Heir – Chapter 1844
Hiss!
At the mention of this name, the faces of several people darkened as they gasped. It was him!
The corners of Zayn’s eyes twitched as a burst of aura flowed from his body. Fulton Hash was
his life’s opponent!
He was also the person he respected the most. However, they had chosen different paths in
life. Bang!
Zayn slammed his hand on the conference table, stood up, and said gravely, “Since he has
appeared, the five pavilions should make a stand. The Tiger Pavilion will take charge of this
case.” However, as soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man sitting at the main seat of the
conference table who had yet to say a word finally spoke up. “Pavilion Master Lowe, don’t be
hasty.” The middle-aged man who spoke was wearing a light green tight-fitting robe with a green
dragon embroidered on the collar and cuffs. On the back of the robe was also a green dragon
that soared through the clouds!
He belonged to the most mysterious pavilion among the five, the Dragon Pavilion!
Pavilion Master Fitzgerald Hale. The Dragon Pavilion was the most mysterious and unfathomable of the five pavilions of the
Nonagon. Pavilion Master Fitzgerald Hale was also an existence that no one could see
through. When the five pavilions were established, the pavilion master of the Dragon Pavilion was
already there. After so many years, the number of times he had made an appearance could be
counted with one hand. No one even knew his true age. Moreover, there were not many disciples in the Dragon Pavilion, only 24. Although there were only 24, these disciples of the Dragon Pavilion possessed explosive
combat power. Every one of them had the strength to go up against 10,000 people!
The existence of the Dragon Pavilion was to maintain the balance behind the door. Each of
the five pavilions was in charge of a zone, but the Dragon Pavilion had its own offices and
disciples in each zone. Their power penetrated the entire Nonagon.
Fitzgerald’s face was indifferent, and no one could read him. He glanced at the monitoring
data report with searing eyes before asking, “Has Spencer Dunley’s source of kingship been
taken away by Fulton?” Chandler nodded and replied, “Spencer didn’t go berserk. All his kingship power has
disappeared. I believe the source of kingship in his body has been taken away from Fulton.” Fitzgerald nodded, got up, and walked to the large French window. He stood with his hands
behind his back, his fingers slowly twirling. His wise eyes seemed to penetrate the night. He
said quietly, “It’ s that person’s handiwork It seems that he’s planning something that we
don’t know about.”
“That man?” At this moment, a young and beautiful woman who was dressed sxily frowned. She asked, “Who is it?” She was wearing a tight-fitting fiery red dress. It looked like the feathers of a phoenix. She was coquettish, hot, and sxy. With her curvaceous figure and tiny waist, any man would
have lingering thoughts about her. She was the new master of the Phoenix Pavilion, Susie Sharp. She was only 23. She was like
the goddess of the entire Nonagon and the object of admiration of all disciples!
She was young and beautiful!
She might be young, but to be able to sit in the position of the master of the Phoenix Pavilion, her strength could not be underestimated.
Chandler focused his attention and answered Susie’s question, “Pavilion Master Sharp, have
you ever heard of the legend of the Forbidden Door?” Susie furrowed her shapely eyebrows before her face became filled with shock. She
exclaimed, “It’s that person?” Chandler nodded before his eyes fell on Dragon Pavilion Master Fitzgerald Hale, who had his
back to the crowd. He asked, “Pavilion Master Hale, are you sure you want to make a move
this time?”
The First Heir – Chapter 1845
Fitzgerald’s eyes blazed as he stared at the city shrouded in darkness. He said, “We haven’t
met for many years. I’ll go and meet my old friend.” After saying that, Fitzgerald’s entire person passed through the glass in front of him. The
piece of glass that could not even be shattered by missiles undulated with ripples. The next second, in the eyes of the other four pavilion masters, they saw Fitzgerald’s body
being suspended hundreds of meters high in the sky. There were streams of green light under
his feet, and he stepped on the void as he left everyone’s sight. Chandler was full of astonishment as he murmured, “The strength of Pavilion Master Hale
has reached a new level. His control over spatial rules, as well as his ability to deconstruct
and reassemble matter has entered a new realm.” The other three also revealed approving expressions and wondered about the strength of the
Dragon Pavilion Master. Just how strong was he?
Just as the four pavilion masters were prepared to leave, a black-robed figure walked straight
in. His hands were folded in front of his abdomen, and there was a geometric pattern of a
golden triangle on the chest of his black robe. He bowed his head slightly to the four pavilion masters before saying respectfully, “Four
pavilion masters, it’s been a while.”
At the sight of this newcomer, the four pavilion masters also nodded their heads slightly. Chandler asked, “Lord Shadow, does the deputy consul have any instructions?” The black-robed man said, “The deputy consul told me to pass a message to the four pavilion
masters. The existence of the five pavilions is to maintain the security of Nonagon and
stabilize the forces and special powers behind the door. Likewise, the five pavilions are also
to maintain some of the secular frameworks and agreements. The kingship power incident in
Hampton has severely affected the secular world and brought unnecessary trouble to
Nonagon. I hope that the pavilion masters can provide a solution as soon as possible.” Zayn Lowe scowled when he heard those words. He stepped forward with his figure that was
as sturdy as a mountain and stood directly in front of the black-robed man. He said coldly, “The deputy consul is not yet qualified to point fingers at the five pavilions!
Go back and tell your master that the five pavilions have our own way of handling this case!” While saying that, a compelling aura exuded from his body, and the surrounding walls began
to crack because of Zayn’s leaking energy!
Seeing this scene, Chandler quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, “Pavilion Master
Lowe, calm down. After all, this is the deputy consul’s instruction.” Then, Chandler said to the black-robed man, “Lord Shadow, the five pavilions will come up
with a plan to deal with this matter. However…” The tone of the conversation changed.
Chandler added, “The five pavilions have our code of conduct. Given that the kingship power
incident in Hampton didn’t cause too much impact on the secular world, the five pavilions
will keep a low profile while handling this case.” The black-robed man raised his eyebrows. His golden pupils flashed with a streak of light. A
faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he bowed and said, “I understand.” With that said, the black-robed man exited the five pavilions’ conference room. Boom!
Right when the other party left, Zayn punched the wall with his fist, causing a loud hang. The
entire wall exploded!
He said angrily, “Damn that Cooper Berry! When did it become his turn to give orders to the
five pavilions?” Chandler sighed and said, “Pavilion Master Lowe, the lord consul is still stuck in the seventh
zone and has yet to return. Currently, he’s the one in charge of Nonagon. Although the five
pavilions can act without listening to Deputy Consul Berry’s order, as we’re all under the
same roof, it’s still better to make concessions.”
“Hmph!” Zayn snorted coldly, waved his hand, and left the conference room. Following that, Dahlia Una also left condescendingly. On the other hand, Susie Sharp smiled
and asked Chandler, “Pavilion Master, where’s Fennel Leigh now?”
Chandler turned around and looked at Susie who was smiling sweetly, asking, “Are you going
to look for him?” With an innocent and lively smile on her face, Susie nodded and said, “Back then, he left
without saying goodbye. He hasn’t given me an explanation yet.” With his hands behind his back, Chandler nodded and said, “Don’t tell anyone I said this but
he’s in Uppercreek.” When Susie heard this, she put her arms around Chandler’s neck and said, “Grandpa Curtis, you’re the best. I’ll cook your favorite dish when I return. By the way, my mother-in-law
spoke about you recently…” Chandler laughed blissfully.
The First Heir – Chapter 1846
Back to Uppercreek. The next day, Philip finally got the rare opportunity to bring Wynn out for a stroll. When
they returned to the hotel, two green jeeps suddenly drove up from the side of the road. The
jeeps looked ordinary but Philip felt an indescribable chill from them. Philip’s sixth sense was never wrong. They were here to pick a fight!
His eyes narrowed slightly. The two jeeps blocked the street, causing the car behind to keep
honking, but they simply ignored it. Wynn supported her big stomach and hid behind Philip. She looked at Philip a little
worriedly and asked, “What’s going on?” Philip shook his head and said, “I don’t know. Let’s see what happens.” Soon, the doors of the jeeps opened and a few men in green uniforms and helmets got down. They looked serious and carried murderous intent!
Their appearance caused the owner of the car who was honking and yelling behind them to
instantly clam up.
‘Holy sh*t!’ They were members of the combat squad!
Moreover, looking at the ranking on their shoulders, they did not hold low positions! The
highest rank among them was actually a junior commander!
These people seemed to be high -spirited with sharp looks in their eyes. At first glance, they
looked like elites who had gone through rigorous training on the battlefield. They were
definitely not to be compared to the small fries Philip had encountered in the past. The leader adjusted his green military uniform, stood a t the bottom of the hotel steps, and
raised his eyebrows to look at Philip with sharp eyes. He asked coldly, “Are you Philip
Clarke?” This was bad!
Despite such circumstances, Wynn stepped forward and stood in front of Philip. She looked at
the other party coldly and asked, “Who are you?” Wynn was also on tenterhooks. They were members of the combat squad. Why would they
look for Philip?
The leader with a rigid and cold face glanced at Wynn in a hostile manner. He continued to
ask Philip, “I’m asking you if you’re Philip Clarke?” His face looked thin like a sharp sword as he stood upright on the spot. The aura he exuded
made no one dare to approach him. Philip understood at a glance. A person like this surely had terrifying and amazing explosive
power hidden within him. After all, the other party carried a raging invincible aura just by
standing there. Philip pulled Wynn behind him. With eyes full of biting chills, he said, “I’m
Philip Clarke. Who are you?”
“Take him away!” The man with a thin face and who carried an air of majesty said directly. “Who dares to take my husband away?” Wynn immediately flew into a rage. Supporting her big belly, she furrowed her shapely
eyebrows and stared at the other party coldly.
The First Heir – Chapter 1847
It was rare for Philip to return. He had only been back for a few days and they had not even
enjoyed their time together yet. Now, these people were about to take her husband away. How could Wynn not be angry?
Philip’s eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light. He did not act recklessly but asked
indifferently, “Which unit are you from? What authority or reason do you have to take me
away?” A trace of coldness and impatience was reflected in the eyes of the thin faced man. He pulled
out his ID and tossed it to Philip. “Internal Combat Division Investigation Bureau!” he said solemnly. Philip looked at the other party’s ID. Sure enough, he was a junior commander. Then, he
casually tossed the other party’s ID in the trash can on the roadside! “I’m sorry, I don’t know this unit. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be sending my wife upstairs,” Philip said with a slightly mocking smile. His act of throwing away the ID was extremely cocky. He was deliberately provoking the
other party and trampling on their authority!
The thin faced man scowled as his eyes flashed sinisterly. He glanced at the ID that had been tossed into the trash can and a taunting smile appeared on
the corner of his mouth.
This guy by the name of Philip Clarke was very cocky. No wonder the supreme told him to
personally bring this person back. One of the subordinates standing behind the leader was also dressed in the same green
uniform. When he saw Philip provoking his superior in such a manner, he immediately
became angry. He pointed at Philip and roared, “You, retrieve Junior Commander Weiss’ ID
at once!” After saying that, a sinister expression washed over the man’s face. He looked as if he would
kill Philip as long as he refused. However, Philip merely replied flatly, “Don’t talk to me like that. I don’t like it. Besides, you’re scaring my wife. The person who last spoke to me like this…”
“What?” the man twitched his eyes and asked fiercely. “The grass on his tomb is already three meters high.” Philip suddenly smiled provocatively, his eyes filled with unbridled arrogance. Hearing this, the man in uniform was furious.
‘Was he saying that he was courting death?’ Immediately, the man in uniform glared at Philip furiously and shouted, “You’re dead!” With that said, he clenched his iron like fist and punched Philip’s face!
“Ah!” Wynn screamed in fright and tried to pull Philip back. The corner of Philip’s eyes froze as a
violent aura exploded from his body. He raised his hand and grabbed the other party’s fist. Boom!
A muffled sound exploded in the air!
When the young man in combat uniform saw that the other party could grab his fist so easily, he was furious and tried to kick him. However, Philip did not give him the chance at all. He exerted some force and rotated the
other party’s fist 90 degrees. A crunching sound was heard!
Immediately after, a muffled groan could be heard from the man in combat uniform. His face
turned pale, and his facial features were contorted due to the extreme pain. “Go to hell!” However, even though his arm had been broken by the opponent, the man in combat uniform
still clenched his other fist. With the force of thunder, he punched Philip again. Philip had no choice but to raise his foot and violently kick the man in the stomach.
Bang!
Like a cannonball, the man flew out and crashed heavily into one of the jeeps!
The First Heir – Chapter 1848
Boom!
The glass windows of the jeep shattered instantly. With a muffled grunt, the man in combat
uniform slumped on the ground, throwing up bile!
