After pondering for a long time, Philip knew that the other party's words made sense.

However, he couldn't swallow his pride when he thought of the contemptuous look that Dora gave him, which was similar to that of Lux Arden.

He carefully calculated in his mind.

It was true that the Blackwood family was wealthy and influential, but they had never had any dealings with him.

Compared to that, the Elliott Kane that Lux Arden held was a money tree that was hard to find even with a lantern.

If he let Lux Arden go today, not only would the Blackwood family not appreciate it, but he would also suffer huge losses.

In comparison, the choice was clear. But what if the Blackwood family pursued it afterwards?

Philip came up with a poisonous plan in his mind and turned to his subordinate, whispering, "Clean up everyone later, and don't leave a single survivor."

The subordinate's eyes widened in horror upon hearing this. He never expected Philip to be so crazy.

But Philip didn't care about his subordinate's surprised look at all.

He looked at Dora maliciously and said, "Miss Dora, please step aside and don't interfere with me carrying out my duties. Otherwise, I will have to treat you as his accomplice and execute you on the spot!"

"Philip, how dare you!" Dora was furious and wanted to confront Philip.

But who would have thought that Philip would frame her and say, "Okay, the Blackwood family is helping the tyrant and openly attacking the police. Today, I will eliminate harm for the people!"

As he spoke, he showed a crazy smile on his face and opened the safety switch of his gun.

Just as Philip was about to take action, a sudden voice sounded from outside the door.

"Oh? What a great act of serving the people, Philip, you are truly a model for us all!" Philip was so angry that his facial features twisted.

He just wanted to deal with a small fry, but there always seemed to be someone who would come out and obstruct him.

But when Philip saw who was speaking, he suddenly sobered up.

"Paxton.. Director Paxton, what brings you here?" Philip looked panicked.

"We came to observe and learn from you, Philip, on how to handle cases!" Director Paxton said with a smile.

Behind Director Paxton, Anthony, the mayor of Marlowe City, appeared and said something that made Philip's face turn ugly.

But they were not the only ones who came. Following behind Anthony were several officials of all sizes, an unprecedented grandeur.

To everyone's surprise, under Anthony's lead, the officials all bowed and paid their respects to Lux Arden.

Philip was stunned.

Dora was also surprised. She whispered to Wynn, "Wynn, what is Lux's identity?" But Wynn just shook his head and smiled bitterly, just as confused as Dora.

Only Elliott Kane was not surprised at all. His face turned gray and lifeless, and the arrival of Director Paxton and Mayor Anthony had confirmed his Suspicion.

Lux Arden was the Black Dragon, and today, Elliott Kane was undoubtedly doomed!

Anthony shouted at Philip, "What are you standing there for? Put away your gun now!" Philip was startled by the shout and regained some clarity.

Although he didn't know who had alerted these big shots, it was undoubtedly all for Lux Arden.

If they let Lux Arden go today, it would be like releasing a tiger back to the mountain.

Then all the shameful things he had done over the years would be exposed. That was enough to get him executed ten times over!

With this in mind, Philip made up his mind. He couldn't let Lux Arden go no matter what today.

"Paxton, isn't this inappropriate? He has killed so many people and still has a hostage in his hands!" Philip retorted with a dark face.

"You..."

Paxton was so angry that he couldn't speak, and his hands were shaking.

Anthony, the top person in Marlowe City, was also furious and shouted at Philip for disobeying orders.

But Philip didn't care at all. Now he was like an arrow on the string, he had to shoot it.

"Kid, I warn you, release Elliott Kane now and surrender, or l'll kill you right now!"

After hearing this, Lux Arden released his grip on Elliott Kane's neck and threw him heavily to the ground.

Philip was overjoyed to see this. He admitted that Lux Arden was very skilled, but even the most skilled person was as fragile as a block of tofu in the face of guns and bullets.

Lux Arden's reaction was satisfactory to him.

A humble little person should obey his orders and give him what he wants.

The feeling of having the power of life and death in his hands was so comfortable that Philip couldn't help but forget himself.

He laughed smugly.

But in the next second, his smile froze on his face.

Lux Arden actually stomped on the head of Elliott Kane right in front of him!

The red and white filth splattered all over him, almost making him vomit on the spot.

"You bastard! l'll kill you!" Philip shouted, forcibly suppressing the discomfort in his stomach and pulling the trigger.

"Stop!!"

Everyone exclaimed at Philip.

But it was too late.

The bullet shot towards Lux Arden's forehead, and it looked like it was going to blow his head apart.

The twin sisters screamed in horror, covering their eyes and unable to bear to watch their savior die on the spot.

Paxton and the top people in Marlowe were pale, as if they had seen the end of the world.

Dora was in tears, her whole body weeping like a bereaved person.

Just when everyone thought Lux Arden was bound to die, he moved.

He was like a ghost, and his figure disappeared in a flash.

"Ah!!!"

When Lux Arden reappeared, everyone realized that Philip's gun had been held in his hand and turned into a pile of parts.

Philip was lying on the ground, his legs broken, and he was screaming in agony. But the screams lasted for less than a moment before disappearing without a trace.

The bullet hole on his forehead, still bleeding, announced his death.

Everything happened too fast. The crowd could hardly believe that a human could do such things.

But compared to all of this, Dora was more concerned about the consequences of Lux Arden's actions.

After all, Lux Arden had killed a captain of the Public Security Bureau in front of the heads of the Marlowe Police and Political Departments!

She couldn't help but worry deeply for Lux Arden. However, Paxton and Anthony and others just glanced coldly at the still-warm body of Philip.

They all remained silent.

After all, how could they interfere with the decision made by the Black Dragon Sentinel?

    Dora wanted to help Lux Arden, but she didn't know how to speak up. Even if it was the Blackwood family who committed the murder in front of Paxton and Anthony, they would still be caught by the law. Paxton and Anthony were also frowning, trying to figure out what words to use to dismiss the many eyewitnesses present. The twin sisters were easy to deal with, but Wynn the Divine Physician and the Blackwood family's daughter were both influential figures, and threats and bribes might not work on them. It was difficult to handle! Just as everyone was struggling, Lux Arden's phone rang. "Dragon Commander, I have informed the key figures in the city as per your instructions. They should have arrived by now, right?" "Hmm, how is it going on your end?" "Reporting to Dragon Commander, I am already guarding the hospital, and Leopard's team is also on the way. It shouldn't take long for them to arrive." Lux Arden's face showed approval and he praised, "Well done, very ef

    Lux Arden ignored the impact his words had on Elliott Kane. By now, he had already stood in front of Elliott Kane and used his strong and powerful hand to grip Elliott's throat. "Stop!" A hurried sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. A group of armed and uniformed officers from the Public Security Bureau burst into Elliott Kane's office. "How dare you commit violence in broad daylight? Do you have no respect for the law? Let go of Mr. Elliott immediately!" they shouted. The trembling twin sisters hiding in the corner thought that the officers were their saviors. They ran to the leader and tearfully recounted the whole story, condemning Elliott Kane's wrongdoing and also exonerating Lux Arden. But the leader just sneered, "Hmph, you're obviously in cahoots. You couldn't extort Mr. Elliott, so you resorted to violence." "What are you all waiting for? Handcuff them!" he ordered, turning his back on them. Lux Arden stared at him with a cold expres

    The strong man held an iron rod in his hand, and without waiting for Elliott Kane to issue an order, he yelled and rushed towards Lux Arden. He is a fierce general under Elliott Kane, originally a child of a martial arts family. His ability is far better than that of a bald head, and he is already at the bottom of the dragon and tiger list at a young age. Back then, he raped his master's daughter because of drunken sex. Fearing that the incident would be revealed, he simply killed his master's family and fled to Marlowe to join Elliott Kane. But although he is good at kung fu, his brain is not very bright. He has been struggling for many years but has not been reused by Elliott Kane. Seeing such a great opportunity today, how could he let it go! The strong man shot without any fancy, his arm riveted all the strength of his body, and he hit Lux Arden head-on with a stick. The force was so fierce that the air exploded. Lux Arden didn't dodge or evade, he raised his le

    The younger sister fell to her knees with a thud, pleading, "We won't do it again, Mr. Elliott, please spare us." However, Elliott Kane only scowled and said, "Didn't I tell you to run? Can't you understand?" The younger sister cried and shook her head in fear, "Mr. Elliott, we really won't do it again." Elliott Kane narrowed his eyes, looking impatient. He kicked the younger sister to the ground and raised his golf club again, swinging it towards her legs. Just as the younger sister's legs were about to be hit, the office door was smashed open with a bang. A burly man rushed in like a cannonball and collided with Elliott Kane, sending him flying into the air and crashing onto the desk, causing him to grimace in pain. Several bosses rushed forward to help, struggling to pull Elliott Kane out from under the burly man. But just as Elliott Kane regained his footing, he heard Maddox's terrified voice. "Boss, he's... he's dead." Enraged, Elliott Kane kicked Maddox in

    "What's going on?" Wynn hurriedly asked. But when Wynn saw the woman lying on the stretcher, checked her pulse, and saw her appearance, even he couldn't help but be shocked, despite his usually calm demeanor. "Wynn? How could this be?" Seeing Wynn's panicked expression, Lux Arden curiously approached and asked, "What's wrong?" Wynn explained, "Mr. Lux Arden, this young lady is the granddaughter of the strange patient I mentioned to you earlier. She is Miss Dora, the young lady of the Blackwood family." "I didn't expect her to have the same strange illness as her grandfather. I have carefully treated this illness before, and the patient, apart from being extremely weak, has no other symptoms. It shouldn't be contagious." "And I have treated her grandfather, Mr. Blackwood, several times with countless precious herbs, but none of them have had any effect. It's very strange." Lux Arden glanced at the beautiful figure lying on the stretcher. Seeing Dora frowning in pain, he
