Chapter 1269
The First Heir
What was the meaning of this?
They were the seven masters of the martial arts world!
People who would cause a sensation all over the world!
At this moment, all of them were respectfully greeting Philip.
Horrifying!
Philip was a little startled. He quickly helped them up and said with a smile, âDonât do this. All of you are
seniors. I canât accept this gesture.â
Jacob smiled and explained to Philip, âYoung Master Clarke, do you know why they came here this
time?â
Philip was not stupid. He looked around before asking, âBecause of me?â
Jacob nodded and continued, âIndeed. You should be aware that the Aces donât appear easily. This
time, all the remaining Aces have resurfaced. Can you think of the reason?â
Philip was stunned and said, âI thought itâs because of Old Master Jensen.â
Upon hearing that, Jacob laughed and looked at the masters before saying to Philip, âItâs because of
your father.â
His father?
In an instant, Philip understood what was happening. He said a little unhappily, âDid he use money to
make you do this?â
Upon hearing the words, several Aces shook their heads and smiled.
Dorian said, âYoung Master Clarke is wrong to think so.
With our status, money is already meaningless to us.
Your father is the real sage. He promised to contribute 100 billion to the development of national martial
arts.â
100 billion?
Holy sh*t!
His father was really savage!
100 billion just like that!
In comparison, he was just a kindergartener!
âWhat about the terms?â
Philip was not stupid either. This must be conditional.
According to his fatherâs temperament, there could be no losses when doing business in this world.
âThe seven of us will always guard Young Master Clarke,â Jacob replied.
Hiss!
Philip found it incredulous when he heard this!
Did the Seven Aces just become his personal bodyguards?!
Philip was silent for a moment and could only accept this fact.
Since it was his fatherâs intention, there must be a reason for it.
After chatting with them for a while, Philip and Jacob went for a walk in the small garden.
Philip remembered what had happened last night and asked Jacob, âOld Master Jensen, do you know
the previous Supreme well?â
Jacob followed next to Philip and replied, âYes.â
âIs his influence very strong?â Philip asked again.
Jacob was silent for a moment before he replied, âYoung Master Clarke, the former Supreme is not an
ordinary person. The level he represents is not what we can imagine.
In certain aspects, he certainly has infinite influence. Even Supreme Williams must show him some
respect. I havenât been able to see through this person until now, same as your father.â
Jacob was deeply aware that the power wielded by the former Supreme was taboo.
It was incomprehensible.
Philip nodded and was silent for a moment. He then asked, âYou and Mr. Simmons, who is stronger?â
âWeâre evenly matched.â
Jacob replied but added, âBut that was five years ago. Itâs hard to say now.â
âCompared to the teacher?â Philip continued.
âI donât even know how strong Supreme Williams is. But what is certain is that Mr. Simmons is the
candidate for the next Supreme and the only confidant of the former Supreme.â
Jacob said with some worry in his eyes.
Philip nodded. The news he inquired about today was about done.
These people gave him a lot of pressure.
He could foresee that he would have a life-and-death battle with this former Supreme or Mr. Simmons
in the future!
The situation had become more and more troublesome.
There were still a lot of things he had to do, including his motherâs accident that had not been
investigated clearly yet.
The Clarke family on Arcadia Island was also suffering from internal and external threats.
