The First Heir

Chapter 4196

This statement was like a bombshell that exploded in everyone’s ears.

Everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at Philip.

Philip wanted Barry and the Hood family to submit to him?

Was this a joke?

They held Philip’s strength in high regard now, but they felt something must be wrong with Philip’s IQ or he would never say such a thing.

After that, everyone looked at Philip expectantly, but Philip was unmoved and looked at Barry quietly.

Barry’s expression was calm as if he did not hear Philip’s earlier remark.

For a moment, the scene fell into pin-drop silence.

Barry looked at Philip quietly, a smile still on his face. Philip returned his smile.

After a while, Barry broke the silence first. “Young man, are you sure you’re not joking?”

“No, I want your entire Hood family, including you, to submit to me, and hand over all your resources and assets to me.” Philip was still smiling as he said that.

“If you can do that, I’ll let Arlo go. If not, we don’t have to discuss it any further,” Philip added.

Barry’s smile gradually faded, replaced by calm. “Young man, are you sure?”

Philip’s smile remained unchanged as he said, “Since you know who I am, you should understand my potential. You won’t suffer if you follow me, and it’s not as if I don’t have anyone behind me.”Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Barry’s eyes turned dark. His hunched back slowly straightened up, and he sighed. “I didn’t intend to make a move at first. It’s best if we can settle this matter peacefully. It’s a pity that you don’t know what’s good for you…”

Hearing this, Philip’s expression became calm, and he said, “In that case, let’s begin. I want to see how powerful someone at level eight of the pseudo holy tier is…”

With that said, Philip’s energy surged, and lightning swept across the surroundings instantly.

This time, even those people in the sky were affected by Philip and fell into Philip’s lightning energy field. However, Barry’s surroundings seemed extremely calm with no signs of lightning at all.

Barry chuckled and said, “Not bad… Your courage is commendable, but courage alone isn’t enough to fight me.”

Philip said calmly, “Why don’t you try?”

Barry did not reply but tossed his walking cane aside. As he walked toward Philip, his aura became more domineering, and his gaze grew darker.

The farther he walked, the more powerful his aura became.

Some people in the middle stage of nine stars could not bear it anymore and had to back away.

Neither Philip nor Barry paid any attention to those retreating people. They stared at each other the entire time.

Slowly, Barry’s aura reached level three of the pseudo holy tier, but Philip remained indifferent. He looked at Barry calmly.

Level four of the pseudo holy tier.

Level five…

Level six!

Philip shuddered slightly as he felt the strong pressure, but he remained motionless.

Level seven of the pseudo holy tier!

Philip began to tremble, but he did not back down. His energy surged frantically as he countered Barry’s aura.

Level eight of the pseudo holy tier!
