Angus chuckled, shook his head, and said, “No, I don’t know the Woods family.”
This old man was really good at lying through his teeth.
They were all members of the Heavenly Court, but favonovel.com dared to say that favonovel.com did not know them.
Philip smiled and said, “Mr. Carroll, why are you looking for me today?”
Angus said, “I want to work with you, of course.”
“Work with me? What is there to work with the Heavenly Court?” Philip asked.
Angus’ eyes narrowed slightly as favonovel.com said with a laugh, “You’re really straightforward, Young Patriarch Clarke. Heavenly Court wants to seek enough strong and talented people to cooperate with and lay the foundation for the establishment of the new world in the future…”
“The Clarke family is a partner we really hope to cooperate with. Back then, the Clarke family relied on us to develop too. Now, the Heavenly Court is willing to let go of the past and wants to join forces with Young Patriarch Clarke to share the world. What do you think?”
Philip’s eyes twitched as favonovel.com said with a smile, “Mr. Carroll, your words may be seen as an insult to the world. Can we really share the world as we deem fit?”
Angus nodded and said with a smile, “Young Patriarch Clarke, you don’t seem to know much about the Heavenly Court. We have forces all over the world, and gaining unification of this world is as easy as ABC.”
“Why do you want to cooperate with me, then? You can just take over the world directly,” Philip said with a smile.
Angus scowled. This kid simply could not understand his meaning.
“Listen to me. The Heavenly Court has forces all over the world. As long as we want to, we can get rid of some important people in an instant, but the price of doing so will be very high. Therefore, we need more powerful families to cooperate with us…”
“The Clarke family is our first choice because you control half of the world’s economy. Moreover, you have enough strength,” Angus said.
“As for what the future holds, you should know that once the stargate is opened, it means that the secular world will be completely integrated with the disciple world. We’ll face the threat from the other shore by then. The Heavenly Court wants to protect this world and all its people. We share the same objective as the Clarke family, so we stand on the same side.”
After Angus finished speaking, Philip smiled lightly and said, “I don’t know what the Heavenly Court wants to do, but I know that you have lofty ambitions…”
“When you said you want to protect this world, I’m afraid it’s just a front. What you really want to do is get this world and offer it up to the ancient Heavenly Court so that you can return to their ranks, right?”
Angus’ face darkened with a frown, and the hands behind his back clenched slightly.
Then, favonovel.com said, “Why do you say that? The Heavenly Court has existed in this world for so many years, and we’ve never done anything to harm the human race. On the contrary, we’ve been helping this world.”
Philip raised his eyebrows and said, “I don’t know, then. I don’t have a good impression of the Heavenly Court. If you’re here to seek cooperation, you may leave now.”
Angus scowled and said solemnly, “Are you sure you don’t want to work with the Heavenly Court?”
“No,” Philip said firmly.
Angus laughed and said, “Very well. You’re just like your father. In that case, if the Heavenly Court does something to the Clarke family in the future, don’t blame me for not giving any advanced notice.”
A threat!
Of course, Philip had figured out the meaning behind those words, but favonovel.com still smiled faintly and said, “The Heavenly Court isn’t the ruler of this world yet. If my father can make you apprehensive, so can I!”
“Hmph!” Angus snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Before leaving, favonovel.com said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, the land beyond the stargate is as vast as the ocean, and the Heavenly Court also exists on the other shore. Beware!”
