The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

"Two people at nine stars dare to mess with the Hood family. Do they really think the Hood family is a pushover?"
"I think so too. Although the Hood family is declining with only one pseudo holy tier left, he's not someone even a freak at the
peak of nine stars dares to mess with."
"You got that right. The pseudo holy tier is completely different from ordinary nine-star practitioners. One has mastered the path
order, while the other the laws. A path order can crush the laws at any time."
"Ignorance is bliss!"
Various comments could be heard, but no one was optimistic about Philip and Licht. They were full of mockery instead.
Philip shrugged at those comments and turned to Licht.
Licht said calmly, "Philip, I can't handle the pseudo holy tier, so I'll leave him to you. Let me take care of the rest!"
With that said, Licht's energy surged and spread around in an instant.
Compared to ordinary nine-star practitioners, the energy of talents was much purer because their foundation, while at a lower
level, was more solid than the former.
It was extremely difficult for talents of the same level to fight beyond their level. However, Licht was facing a bunch of ordinary
nine-star practitioners now!
These people posed no threat to him at all!
Philip smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead. Just leave the pseudo holy tier to me."
With that said, Philip looked at Arlo, his smile not faltering in the slightest.
Arlo also looked at Philip mockingly and said, "Someone at the late stage of nine stars wants to deal with me? You must be
dreaming! Even if the two of you are talents, I'll kill you today! Talents without brains won't live long!"
Arlo's energy exploded, and a golden light instantly illuminated the entire Trifecta City.

Arlo comprehended the path order of sharp metal, an extremely powerful and top-notch attack existence even within the pseudo
holy tier. At the same time, everyone also noticed that Arlo's path order of metal contained traces of the path order of earth.
Philip raised his eyebrows at that and said, "What an unexpected finding. You've comprehended the path order of earth too. Not
bad. This is getting challenging."
Even so, Philip had no intention of moving. Even his energy did not appear. He just calmly looked at Arlo showing off in the sky.
Everyone looked at Philip as if he was an idiot.
"Something must be wrong with this guy's brain..."
"I wonder... He hasn't moved in a while. Is he scared shitless by Patriarch Hood?"
"Let's not talk about him. I'm a little surprised that Patriarch Hood has almost comprehended the path order of earth. His strength
will increase greatly by then."
"If that happens, Trifecta City may have to bow down to him. Maybe he'll even take over other families. I'm afraid something may
happen."
Philip remained calm.
He looked at Arlo with narrowed eyes and said, "Aren't you going to make a move? You only have one chance to attack."
Arlo sneered and said, "I've never seen someone as arrogant as you. A brat in the late stage of nine stars dares to speak to me
in this manner? I'll let you experience despair!"
