Chapter 2321
“You’ve fallen for me? Miss Joo, stop fooling around. I’m already married with two kids. If Old Master Joo finds out about this, he’ll definitely come after me.” Philip’s expression was full of trepidation.

Vivi shook her head and said, “I don’t care. I wonder who was the one who saw all of me in the hotel? You must bear responsibility for it!”

“Stop right there! You were the one who invited me. I didn’t do it on purpose,” Philip said helplessly.

Vivi stomped her foot in anger and rolled her eyes coquettishly at Philip. “You’re a scumbag!”

Philip shrugged.

After standing for a while, Vivi suddenly asked, “Are you here for the auction too?”

Before Philip could answer, a cold sarcastic voice came from not far away.

“Hehe, what right does a small potato have to attend the auction here? Vivi, since when did you know such a loser?”

It was a woman with an icy face. Her arms were across her chest and she were high heels with a tight-fitting backless red dress that showed off her figure perfectly. Her appearance instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

A goddess.

The woman approached and looked at Philip disdainfully before asking Vivi with a mocking smile, “Vivi, you didn’t run away from home and escape from marriage because of this loser, did you? What’s wrong with Ethan Clarke? I heard that he’s from a big and powerful family!”

Then, the woman sized Philip up and said coldly, “Loser, I advise you to stay away from Vivi. The plot of a poor boy being fancied by a rich girl only exists in fiction, not in reality!”

Vivi was a little anxious. She pulled the woman’s delicate arm and whispered, “Heidi, don’t say that about him. He’s not a loser. He’s actually…”

“What? You useless girl! If your family’s old master hadn’t asked me to watch over you, I wouldn’t be bothered at all!”

Heidi glared at Vivi and said, “In the future, stay away from such losers from the bottom of society!”

Looking at this elegant and arrogant woman, Philip retracted his smile and said lightly, “Miss, I don’t seem to have provoked you, right? There’s no need to scorn and ridicule me like this. Besides, the relationship between me and Vivi Joo seems to have nothing to do with you, right?”

“Damn it!”

Heidi Denver was taken aback. She frowned and said to Philip coldly, “Loser, what did you say? Vivi is my good friend. I won’t allow her to have contact with a poor boy like you!”

Heidi was very angry. No one had ever spoken to her like this before!

This guy was really hateful!

“Hehe…” Philip laughed and said, “Do I look like a poor boy to you?”

“Of course!”

Heidi sneered, “What? Are you trying to tell me that you’re some rich young master? Hehe, what a joke! Why don’t you open your eyes and take a look at the people who are here tonight and the clothes they’re wearing? And just look at you! You’re wearing cheap stuff from your head to your toes. They’re probably not even worth a few bucks! Someone like you isn’t even qualified to lick my shoes!”

Heidi cursed happily, not noticing the chill in Philip’s eyes.

If this were in the past, Philip might just smile slightly and not bother. However, as the new Clarke family head, Philip felt he had to maintain his dignity.

Hence…

Smack!

Philip raised his hand and slapped Heidi across the face. He said coldly, “This slap is a warning to you for disrespecting others! If you dare to bark again, I can kick you out of here today!”

Chapter 2322
Vivi was flabbergasted at this scene!

At that moment, she stared at Philip with wide eyes full of disbelief. However, she calmed down in a flash. After all, Philip was the new Clarke family’s patriarch. The Joo family had already received the notice.

In the hall, other chattering guests heard the slap and looked sideways. When they saw Heidi Denver being slapped in public by an unfamiliar man, everyone was dumbfounded!

She was the daughter of the Denver family in Golden City. Her status was high and noble. Her family was a combat group force in the country!

Was that man crazy?

How dare he slap Heidi Denver?!

A disaster was about to happen!

“Ah!”

Heidi cried and clutched her red cheek, her eyes full of surprise and shock. After getting hit, she came back to her senses. She stared at Philip hysterically and shouted frantically, “You! How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am? I belong to Golden City’s Denver…”

Smack!

Philip smoothly slapped her again!

“How noisy!”

Philip said coldly, “I don’t care who you are or what your family does. One must learn to respect others.”

Heidi exploded in anger. Both her cheeks were red and slightly swollen!

“Argh! Damn you! I’m going to shred you into pieces! Mark my words! I’ll make you pay for it, you loser!” Heidi screamed, turned around, and ran away in a rage.

Vivi shook her head helplessly, glanced at Philip who looked indifferent, and said, “Philip, why did you do that? She’s the daughter of the Denver family, after all. If you provoke the Denver family like this, it won’t do you any good, right?”

Philip chuckled and said, “It’s just the Denver family. I dare them to kick up a fuss.”

Vivi shrugged and continued chatting with Philip. She had some snacks as well and asked Philip why he came here.

Not far away, several men and women gathered together and gossiped about what had just happened. Obviously, Philip and Vivi had become the focus of the hall.

“Is that Vivi Joo’s new boyfriend? How could he be so fierce? He even dared to hit Heidi Denver.”

“Hehe, I think he’s an idiot who’s just acting tough in front of Vivi! Just wait. Heidi Denver is a notorious demon girl. That dude is dead today!”

“I think so too. Isn’t it rumored that Vivi ran away to escape from her marriage? Is it because of him?”

It was an amazing spectacle when several girls gathered to gossip.

“Interesting. I heard that Vivi’s fiancé is the second young master of the Clarke family. Do you know this Clarke family?”

“Not sure, I’ve never heard of them. If they could marry the Joo family, they shouldn’t be a small family. However, among the eight major families, not one is a Clarke. Could it be a hidden family?”

The oldest one among them, a beautiful woman wearing a black low-cut evening dress with a lady’s bun, said in wonder.

“That kid doesn’t look very impressive either. Why would Vivi take a fancy to him?”

“He looks like a kid from a small county. Maybe Vivi wants to try something new? Shall we make a bet? Heidi will definitely tear that kid alive in a while.”

“Do we even need to bet on this? According to Heidi’s temper, it’s good enough if she doesn’t tear this place apart.”

Several people laughed coldly. In their opinion, Philip was doomed tonight.

Chapter 2323
Meanwhile, Heidi had already walked out of Spruce Villa in a huff. Standing at the door, her face was full of chills. She angrily took out her phone, dialed her big brother’s number, and cried out, “Brother! I was beaten by a bastard! You have to come here and fix things for me!”

On the other end of the phone, a calm and steady voice was heard, but it was filled with chills and anger. He asked, “Who dares to make a move on you?”

“I don’t know him! He should be one of Vivi’s new boyfriends. He’s just an ignorant bastard!” Heidi cried so much that her makeup was running.

“Okay, I got it. I’ll be there in a minute! Whoever dares to make a move on my sister, I’ll show him the taste of death!”

The call ended.

Heidi’s face was full of hatred as she turned her head to look in the direction of the brightly lit hall of Spruce Villa. She said resentfully, “Poor loser, you’re dead!”

About ten minutes later, outside Spruce Villa, seven or eight jeeps with combat plates stopped at the entrance like a hurricane. Soon, more than a dozen fully-armed warriors in green jumped out of the vehicles!

Those wealthy families and guests nearby avoided them like the plague. That was because this group of people exuded such strong killing intent and auras of warriors. No one dared to get near them.

Then, the door of the jeep at the front was opened. The first thing that came into view was a pair of black combat boots, followed by a man dressed in a tiger stripe camo uniform. He had a pistol on his waist and a combat beret with golden stars on the brim. The man had a burly figure and a commanding demeanor so imposing that no one dared to get within three meters close of him.

Thud!

His combat boots stepped on the ground. His cold eyes that were like blades looked at the gorgeous villa in front of him, then at Heidi who ran over with an aggrieved expression.

“Brother! You must do something. Just look at me. My face is all swollen.” At this moment, Heidi acted like a little bird that had found something to rely on. She pulled the arm of the man in combat uniform while sulking.

The man in combat uniform gently touched Heidi’s cheek, his icy eyes reflecting a biting killing intent. He said, “I’ll do something about this.”

After saying that, a biting chill surged from within him. With more than a dozen fully armed soldiers, he walked toward the main hall of Spruce Villa.

With a smug smile on her face, Heidi quickly followed.

Meanwhile, in the main hall, the news about Heidi being slapped by Philip just now had spread among the many circles of the rich young kids.

Philip was now the focus of attention wherever he went.

“Who the hell is that kid? Doesn’t he know what will happen if he offends Heidi Denver? How dare he stay here?”

“I don’t know him. His face looks unfamiliar. But I think there’ll be a good show next. Let’s just wait and see.”

“Looking at Vivi, the two seem to be quite close. Are they really in a relationship?”

A group of people was very curious because Vivi was together with Philip, talking and laughing. They paid no heed to other people’s gazes at all. However, a local rich young man soon recognized Philip.

“Hehe, I know this kid. Everyone has heard of the Johnston family’s Beacon Group, right? The one with a goddess-level chairwoman. He’s Wynn Johnston’s kept husband.”

“Holy sh*t?! Really? A kept husband is actually hooking up with the young lady of the Joo family?! This guy really has the moves. Did he secretly study a book called ‘How To Please A Rich Woman’?”

“Who cares who he is? I just know that this guy has offended the daughter of the Denver family. He’s dead for sure! If you don’t believe me, just wait and see.”

A group of people chattered incessantly. Many people saw that Philip and Vivi were very close. They were talking and laughing away. This sight made the rest of them angry and even jealous. Many rich kids here were interested in Vivi, but unfortunately, when they approached her, she just ignored them.

Could it be that the rich kids present could not compare to a useless kept husband?

Chapter 2324
At this time, in the middle of the party, a group of important people in the circle gathered to mingle.

Liam Johnston followed behind a dignified middle-aged man and watched with a smile as he kept introducing him to one big name after another. These people might be insignificant in the country or even the greater south area, but in Riverdale, they were the big shots in various industries.

Suddenly, he saw Lynn constantly winking at him from the side.

Liam spoke to the middle-aged man in front of him before he walked over and asked, “What’s wrong? Can’t you see I’m talking to some big shots about business?”

“Liam, I went to get some food just now and saw Philip over there,” Lynn quickly said.

“Philip?”

Liam’s eyes narrowed, and he could not help but wonder aloud, “How did he get in? I don’t think anyone from Beacon Group was invited to the antique auction tonight, right?”

“Do you think he’s here to meet people and wants to compete with us?” Lynn said nervously.

“That… Isn’t impossible.”

Liam nodded, and his face darkened. He looked at the time and said, “Wynn should be in contact with Willy Fadden by now, and Philip is here. Are the two of them working on all angles?”

Liam’s face was grave. If Wynn reached an agreement with Willy Fadden and Philip got to know several business partners here, things would be a bit tricky.

“What should we do?” Lynn asked.

Liam pondered for a moment and said, “Go and keep an eye on Philip. I‘ll take care of things on my side and go there right away.”

Lynn nodded, turned around, and left.

Liam’s eyes were cold, and he immediately took out his phone. He called the leader of a group of foreign supernatural beings that he had arranged and said, “Heinz, I want you to keep a close eye on Wynn. There can’t be any mistakes!”

“Young Master Liam, with us here, there’s no problem at all! We’re just dealing with some ordinary people!”

An arrogant voice was heard on the other end of the call.

Back to the group of rich kids. A woman with a good figure smugly looked at the group chatting and said, “Here it comes! Someone saw Titus Denver at the door!”

Titus Denver?!

Everyone was stunned, full of fear and dread!

He was the most powerful and ruthless younger generation of the Denver family. Titus Denver had a great reputation in the Northfrost warzone!

He was the next family head of the Denver family in Golden City. Moreover, it was said that Titus had already entered the Supreme Training Camp and was one of the five most promising candidates to inherit the position as Northfrost Supreme!

His future was limitless! He was definitely a tough guy!

Who would have thought that Titus would appear here?!

“Look, is that Titus Denver? He came so fast!” Suddenly, a woman looked in the direction of the main hall’s entrance and exclaimed.

A group of people looked over and saw a sturdy man in a tiger stripe camo uniform walk through the door with a stern chill on his face. He had a dozen warriors following him.

Chapter 2325
Seeing a group of fully armed soldiers suddenly barging into the main hall, everyone quickly dispersed to the sides for fear of trouble.

Lynn hid in the crowd and sneered, “We can look forward to a good show now.”

Other onlookers also burst out in whispered discussions.

“Is that the young master of the Denver family? Didn’t he get into a special training camp?”

“I don‘t know. He actually appeared here. That kid is dead this time!”

“Titus Denver is one of the five candidates for the Northfrost Supreme. For such a person to appear here, even the mayor of Riverdale must be respectful.”

Listening to the chatter in the crowd, Heidi Denver, who was beaten earlier, followed behind her big brother with a cold face. They walked up to Philip and Vivi, who were laughing and joking. She raised a finger, pointed at Philip, and shouted, “Brother, it’s him! That’s the bastard who hit me just now! I want to slap him a hundred times in front of everyone! And I want him to kneel down and apologize to me!”

After saying that, Heidi stared at Philip with a cold face and biting hatred in her eyes.

At this moment, Philip and Vivi finally noticed the arrival of Titus and the others.

When Vivi saw Titus, her expression changed. She whispered, “Titus.”

At the same time, she looked at Philip worriedly. ‘Oh no!’

Titus was here. He was a tough one!

Although Vivi knew of Philip’s identity and status, could Philip beat Titus?

He was a future supreme candidate.

Heidi also quickly said to Vivi, “Vivi, come here! Why are you still standing with that loser?”

Vivi pursed her lips and said, “Heidi, he’s actually…”

Before Vivi could finish speaking, Titus glared at her coldly. He then looked at the indifferent Philip and asked coldly, “Did you hit my sister?”

Philip smiled faintly.

He had some impression of Titus Denver. When he was training with the Dragon Warriors with Reed Williams before, he had heard of Titus’ great name in the Northfrost warzone. However, they had never met.

“Yes.” Philip nodded, his attitude indifferent.

Titus frowned. This was the first time someone dared to behave like this in front of him.

The other party did not seem afraid of him at all. In the past, as long as he stood there, everyone else would tremble. It was because the killing aura and cold intent on his body were too strong!

“Very good. You dare to admit your mistake. In front of me, no one can bully my sister. Now, I want you to kneel down and apologize to my sister. Accept her punishment for you. What do you say?”

Titus also said coldly with cold intent rising from his body. This cold intent made everyone in the hall shiver slightly. Titus exuded such a strong presence that others could not help but want to worship him.

Heidi stood beside Titus, pointed at Philip, and said with a sneer, “Hmph, why don’t you hurry up and apologize to me on your knees? As I said just now, you’ll die for hitting me! I must beat you to death!”

Seeing this scene, Vivi was also anxious and hurriedly shouted, “Titus, this is a misunderstanding. Philip didn’t do it on purpose. It was Heidi’s fault. Besides…”

“Vivi Joo! Why are you speaking on behalf of this loser? Do you still consider me your best friend?”

Heidi was anxious as she glared at Vivi and shouted.

This was infuriating! This damn girl was siding with outsiders!

Chapter 2326
Vivi pursed her lips and wanted to continue when Titus said coldly, “That’s enough! Vivi, on the account that you’re Old Master Joo’s granddaughter, I won’t pursue this matter with you. But you can’t defend this person!”

With that said, Titus glared coldly at Philip and said, “I‘ll give you one minute to think about it. Get down on your knees and accept my sister’s punishment for you, so that you can still leave here alive. If you refuse to yield or want to resist, you’ll disappear from this world.”

After saying that, the group of men in combat uniform behind Titus stared at Philip coldly. As long as the boss gave an order, they would kill this man in front of them who bullied the boss’ sister!

Philip smiled, glanced at Titus and Heidi, and asked, “I understand your eagerness to protect your sister, but Young Master Denver, before you mete out the punishment, shouldn’t you first figure out what’s right or wrong?”

Titus sneered and said, “In my eyes, there is no right or wrong. You hit my sister, so my sister will punish you. It’s fair.”

“Fair?” Philip smiled and glanced coldly at Titus and the men behind him. He said, “The Denver family is still too arrogant. After so many years, why do you still not know how to restrain yourselves?”

Hearing this, Titus frowned and said, “You have no right to speak about the Denver family!”

With that said, Titus kicked out at Philip’s knee with killing intent and a gust of wind! This kick was so powerful that an ordinary person would suffer broken kneecaps and knee! on the spot!

The onlookers at the scene covered their mouths and widened their eyes.

“That kid is dead! Titus has made his move. He’ll be crippled even if he doesn’t die!”

“Hehe, a brat who is nothing dares to oppose the Denver family. He’s really out of his depth!”

“Judging from Titus’ expression, he’s going to kill that guy.”

However, the next scene left everyone stunned…

Titus’ kick fell short. Philip merely took half a step back and dodged Titus’ kick.

Titus’ face darkened immediately as a trace of doubt and suspicion flashed in the corner of his eyes.

This guy had some skills!

“I didn‘t expect you to have some skills, but in front of me, everything is in vain!”

Titus shouted imposingly before punching Philip’s chest!

The average person would fall to the ground with this punch. They would not be able to get up for a while. In a more serious situation, it would cause instant death. However, a more shocking scene happened again!

Philip merely smiled indifferently, raised his hand, and grabbed Titus’ punch. The fist and the palm made a creaking sound.

The atmosphere in the main hall quickly cooled down!

Everyone gasped. They could not believe that this kid named Philip Clarke actually blocked two consecutive moves from Titus.

Lynn, who was standing in the crowd, was also full of shock at the moment. However, when she thought of Philip’s skills in the past, she seemed to realize something. However, soon, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. She thought to herself, ‘Philip, you’re dead! Who are you that you think you can mess with the Denver family?’

On this side, Titus’ eyes were full of chills. With a frown, he punched out and roared, “You’re seeking death!”

Chapter 2327
As soon as he said that, Titus’ punch struck out and knocked Philip back half a step.

Philip’s eyes widened as he looked at Titus, whose face was full of anger. He made an inward judgment.

Interesting. This Titus Denver actually had the strength of the fourth zone. No wonder he could become one of the five candidates for the Northfrost Supreme!

However, in front of Philip, such strength was just child’s play.

Meanwhile, the shock on Titus’ face was more obvious than Philip’s. However, he tried to tone it down.

‘This guy was actually not sent flying under my punch! In that case, it could only mean that this guy is also a supernatural being or a door disciple!’

His strength should be in the third zone and above. It should not exceed the fourth zone. Thus, Titus did not take him too seriously.

Within the boundaries of the fourth zone, his strength was basically invincible. It was because the potential he developed was physical art and fighting art. His explosive power was very strong just like a humanoid tyrannosaurus!

Generally, those who trained in energy attributes and material rules would fall one step short when they encountered someone like Titus who trained in physical arts. Perhaps a long-ranged attack might pose some problems for Titus. However, if it was a rage within a ten-meter radius, physical skills were unbeatable. This was a recognized standard in the disciple world.

“Hehe, kid, I didn’t expect you to have some strength. But this level isn’t enough for me! I advise you to kneel down and apologize to my sister immediately before I get angry! Otherwise, I can‘t guarantee what will happen next.”

Titus withdrew his fist, his eyes as cold as a blade. He craned his neck at the same time, making a creaking sound.

Inside the main hall, everyone was dumbfounded.

It seemed that Titus was about to get serious. The dozen or so soldiers in combat uniform behind Titus immediately cleared the scene.

Soon, a large space was vacated for Titus and Philip.

Everyone was chased to the sides. Many people took out their phones, ready to record the scene. However, their phones were quickly confiscated by those men in combat uniforms.

After all, a character like Titus Denver had to hide his identity and could not be easily exposed to the eyes of the world. Otherwise, it would attract enemies.

At the scene, Titus took off his tiger stripe uniform. His strong muscles were exposed to everyone‘s sight. That burly figure and explosive muscles made many girls scream on the spot.

Too manly!

This was the kind of guy worthy to be a man!

Many girls began to stare at Titus with bright eyes and cheered with their arms raised, “Young Master Titus, go for it! Down with that bastard!”

“Go, go, go! Young Master Denver!”

Even many guys started to cheer for Titus at this moment!

After all, they did not want to offend someone of Titus’ identity and status. When should they cheer if not now?

Philip looked at Titus, who was on the opposite side, with a calm expression. He swept his gaze past the crowd of cheering onlookers as well.

Titus smiled faintly as he walked around the arena. Then, be tapped the floor with his feet, jumping up and down while posing with different fighting stances. He kept shaking his body from side to side as if he was warming up.

To Philip, these were merely pretentious actions. From an outsider’s point of view, Titus’ actions were simply too cool and dashing.

Many girls fainted from that sight!

Titus hooked his fingers and said to Philip, “Kid, just take your best shot. As long as you can survive three moves under my hands, I’ll let you go. How about it?”

While saying that, Titus smirked.

Three moves? No one could survive even one move!

By mentioning three moves, he was just displaying his graciousness.

“As expected of Young Master Denver. Such gallantry is incomparable!”

“Boy, I advise you to quickly apologize to Young Master Titus and Miss Heidi. Don’t try to be a hero! No one can last more than three moves under Young Master Titus!”

“If you don‘t want to die, just kneel and apologize. It’s not shameful to bow down. Your life is more important.”

Hearing everyone’s persuasions, Philip did not have any emotional fluctuations.

On the side, Vivi Joo was a little anxious. After all, Philip only provoked Heidi because of her. She looked at Philip before saying to Titus, “Titus, can you forget about this matter on my account? I’ll apologize on his behalf for what happened to Heidi.”

“Don’t even think about it! “

Heidi, who had been sneering on the side, heard that Vivi was going to stand up for Philip. She immediately stood up and shouted, “Vivi, don’t be confused! Why are you defending a useless bastard like him? Later, you’ll see him kneel and apologize to me! At that time, you’ll know that some men are unreliable!”

While saying that, Heidi was full of sneers. It was really gratifying to see her big brother stand up for her!
