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."
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..."
