The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 2511
Hearing the woman’ s words, Philip’s face darkened as his eyes wandered between Susan and the woman for a moment.

Then, he bowed slightly and said, “Excuse me.”

After that, Philip turned around and returned to his seat. Fennel and the others also sat down.

“Steven, didn’t you say that your Smith family has information about that organization? Do you know those two?” Philip thought for a moment and asked.

Steven smiled, shook his head, and said, “Mr. Clarke, it’s the Smith family that knows some information about that organization, not me. I don’t know much about them. Most of the information is with my father. I don’t know the two of them. However, as you can see, those eight guards are not simple characters. The armor they’re wearing costs at least three million per set! It should be the most advanced and powerful set of armor at present with very good defense.”

Philip was not very interested in Steven’s explanation of insignificant things. His eyes lingered on Susan and the charming woman beside her.

Susan raised her eyes several times and met Philip’s scorching gaze, which startled her like a little rabbit. She hurriedly averted her eyes.

Vivi was jealous and snorted. “Philip, that‘s not your sister. I’m afraid it’s impolite for you to stare at a young woman like that.”

Hearing Vivi’s words, Philip retracted his gaze, and his expression returned to normal.

If that woman said that his sister was not here, where could she be, then? Moreover, the other party knew him and did not hide it.

As Philip thought about it, a plump middle-aged man walked in through the door. He wore a navy blue suit and glasses. He also had blond hair. It looked like he was the host of tonight’s event. A tall and sexy woman was next to him, wearing a long backless dress with a low neckline. Her figure was splendid. All the men at the venue were seduced the moment they saw the woman, and their eyes flashed with greed.

The man and the woman entered the inner hall followed by four tall bodyguards with sunglasses behind them. Their faces were unsmiling and very serious.

After they appeared, the door of the inner hall was officially closed. The lights in the hall were also extinguished, leaving only the lights on the middle stage. The entire inner hall became a little dim.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight’s ball. I’m your old friend Vic, and I’ll be your host again tonight.” The blonde plump man laughed heartily.

The hall resounded with applause.

Immediately after, Vic smiled and said, “I’m sure everyone would like to know the theme of tonight’s event. Allow me to give you a brief introduction.”

While speaking, the sexy woman beside him took a crystal tray from the bodyguard behind them. On the tray was a blue liquid reagent Under the light, the blue reagent shone with a strange blue glow.

Vic said with a smile, “Everyone must be familiar with this. Yes, this is the essence of life, but it’s the evolutionary version, the essence of life No. 4! With robust cell regeneration activity, it can delay the body’s aging process for 15 years and also strengthen the human body! More importantly, this essence of life No. 4, can help develop the body’s potential so that anyone can become a genius who’s qualified to enter the door!”

Chapter 2512
As Vic’s enthusiastic voice rang out, the audience burst into discussions.

“Oh my God! It’s the essence of life No. 4 that can slow down the aging process for 15 years!”

“The Marcus family must get our hands on this thing!”

“Immediately notify the family. No matter how much money or what resources are needed, we must get this essence of life No. 4!”

For a while, everyone’s faces were full of confidence as they were determined to get this essence of life No. 4. Only Philip’s party looked a little disengaged.

‘The essence of life No. 4?’

Philip was a little confused. If he remembered correctly, the highest grade essence of life in the Nonagon was level three, so why was there a No. 4 here?

Could it be that the organization behind the other party had gone a step further than the Nonagon?

With that thought in mind, Philip turned to Fennel, who shook his head and said softly, “This thing isn’t worth believing. The research on the essence of life in our country has only reached level three, but No. 4 has already appeared here. It doesn’t seem right.”

Hearing Fennel’s words at this moment, Steven smiled lightly and said, “Lord Apollo, you may not believe it, but this essence of life No. 4 is the real deal. However, according to the information received by the Smith family, this product has just been developed and isn’t quite stable yet. Despite that, such R&D results are more than enough. After all, for these people who don’t know much, the ability to delay aging for 15 years is the biggest temptation for them. Moreover, it can also develop the potential of the human body, which many people dare not even think about.”

After listening, Philip smiled and asked, “Will you buy it?”

Steven laughed and said, “Why not? However, such a treasure can only be won by the highest bidder, so we need to first listen to the conditions put forward by the other party.”

Philip’s eyes darkened as he looked at Vic, the host.

At this moment, Vic noticed the crowd’s excitement and smiled smugly. He coughed as a signal for everyone to stop the discussion for now and said, “I believe everyone should be familiar with the rules of our transaction. Now, my boss has put forward two requirements. As long as anyone can meet these two requirements, this essence of life No. 4 will belong to that person.”

“Vic, quickly tell us about the two requirements!”

“That’s right, Vic. Stop beating about the bush. Everyone is waiting.”

For a while, everyone exclaimed again.

Vic smiled, put up a finger, and said, “First, one billion dollars.”

After saying that, his eyes swept over the crowd. Most of the people present were from rich and powerful families. A billion dollars might not be a problem for them. However, some people’s faces obviously darkened.

One billion dollars was still too expensive. They might have to give up half their assets for that.

Vic paused for a while before he raised a second finger and said, “The second requirement is that the person or family who obtains the essence of life No. 4 must do one thing for my boss. They must go to the Cochlea Mountain in the East, enter the door, become a disciple of the Nonagon, and obtain some information for my boss.”

Chapter 2513
Hearing this second request, the expressions on Philip and the others changed rapidly!

Moses also frowned and glanced at Vic before he turned to Philip and Fennel. He said in a low voice, “Is he trying to infiltrate our country and gain a few puppets?”

Philip’s eyes were cold as he frowned and said, “Don’t say anything yet. Let’s see what happens next.”

If it was really as Moses said, Philip would definitely take action and get this essence of life No. 4. At the same time, he would find out who the boss behind Vic was. Anyone who dared to harbor any intentions toward Cochly Mountain must be destroyed.

Everyone in the inner hall fell into silence after Vic’s words. They spoke quietly among themselves.

Among them, Louis XXVI and Alice Elizabeth also spoke to each other, determined to get the essence of life No. 4. Louis XXVI was the first to raise his hand and said, “Vic, I want to get this essence of life No. 4 to present it to the Queen on her birthday. In that case, are you saying that the Queen has to travel to this so-called Cochly Mountain?”

Vic bowed slightly to Louis XXVI and said, “Your Excellency, both my boss and I know all about your filial piety to the Queen. So, my boss has mentioned that if Your Excellency Louis XXVI wants the essence of life, we can provide you with product No. 3 at the price of 500 million dollars.”

Hearing that, Louis XXVI smiled and said with a nod, “Very well. In that case, I won’t compete for the essence of life No. 4. In that case, let everyone else fight for it.”

After saying that, Louis XXVI sat down happily and watched the lively discussions.

On the other side, Susan Stark and the charming woman beside her also spoke in low voices. Susan would peek at Philip from time to time as if she wanted to see what Philip was doing.

The woman whispered in Susan’s ear before she raised her hand and said, “Mr. Vic, we’ll take the essence of life No. 4. The one billion dollars will arrive later. As for the second condition, we’ll select the most elite people to go to Cochly Mountain to get what your boss wants.”

Vic smiled and said, “Oh, dear Madam Purcell, we need to consider this issue. Our boss prefers to have this young woman beside you to enter Cochly Mountain and help our boss get what he wants.”

The woman raised her shapely eyebrows. Her eyes were cold as she said, “Vic, you should know that this is impossible.”

Vic shrugged and said, “Madam Purcell, I know that the forces behind you aren’t ordinary, and the boss also said to treat you with respect, but rules are rules. The transaction must meet the conditions that both parties are satisfied with, so I hope that you can reconsider.”

After saying that, Vic glanced at Susan and bowed slightly.

Immediately after, the leaders of the major Western families present began to raise their hands to grab the essence of life No. 4. The situation at the scene was very intense. It could be seen that everyone was eager to get hold of this item.

Chapter 2514
As for Philip’s side, it was very quiet and no one got involved. Several times, Steven had wanted to raise his hand, but seeing the reaction from Philip and the others, he finally gave up.

“Mr. Clarke, aren’t you going to fight for it?” Steven smiled and asked tentatively.

Philip shook his head and said, “An unstable product is of no use to me. I just want to know who the boss behind this transaction is. Steven, you should have information about him, right?”

Upon hearing this, Steven smiled, nodded slightly, and said, “You’re right, Mr. Clarke. I do have information about this boss. Do you want to trade for it?”

Philip narrowed his eyes and looked at Steven with some oppression.

Steven felt the oppressive aura from Philip and laughed a little uncomfortably. He said, “Haha, Mr. Clarke, don’t look at me like that. We’re good friends, aren’t we? In that case, I’ll make the decision and give you this information for free.”
