Chapter 1961
All the civilian onlookers were shocked at this scene!

Everyone wondered who these people were escorting. They looked like Jedi Knights as they were full of chills!

The convoy slowly drove forward. All the black Mercedes vehicles parked by the roadside also followed the convoy closely, flashing double headlights the entire way.

At the forefront, Philip who was sitting inside the golden dragon Rolls-Royce asked indifferently, “Did you bring Connor Clarke and the rest along?”

George Thomas, who was sitting in the co-passenger seat, immediately turned his head with a respectful look on his face and said, “Yes, they’re in the back.”

Philip nodded and looked out the window at the view.

The street was full of people taking pictures with their phones.

Meanwhile, Connor, Allen, and Levi were locked inside a black Mercedes that looked like a giant box a t the back of the convoy.

Levi leaned back on the seat, his head still wrapped I n bandages. His face looked a little haggard.

Connor leaned on his cane with both hands, his face slightly cold as he looked through the car window.

Damn it!

The main family actually made such a big commotion just to welcome this future heir?

Even the Shadow Squadron had been dispatched. What exactly was Roger Clarke planning?

“Connor, what should we do now? If this continues, won’t Philip make it back to the island safely?

Allen sat on Connor’s side and looked out of the window before he turned his head and asked with an anxious face.

Connor’s cold eyes were like cold pools, and his face was full of hidden killing intent. He said, “We have n o other way. The Shadow Guards have been dispatched and it’ll be impossible for Gareth to find a n opportunity to make a move. Find an opportunity t o inform the people we’ve arranged. Tell them to get ready to make a move on Philip at the Arcadia Island customs or at sea! No matter what it takes, no matter the cost or means, we must stop him before he arrives on the island!”

Allen nodded, and his expression tensed. He quickly took out a phone that had been hidden for a long time from his waist and dialed a number. He commanded coldly, “Pass my order down immediately. Philip Clarke has set off for the island. No matter the cost, he must be stopped at sea!”

Then, Allen hung up the phone and glanced at Levi who looked miserable on the side.

He was the hope of the entire branch family but he was repeatedly humiliated and beaten up by Philip.

Levi heard the conversation between Connor and Allen. He sat up with difficulty. With a face full of pain and resentment, he said, “Grandpa, we must kill him! If we let him go back, everything will be over for us!”

Connor glanced at his dear grandson and said with a nod, “Don’t worry, I’ve made arrangements. The Clarke family will definitely belong to our branch family in the future! Philip is not worthy to lead the Clarke family to greater glory!”

The three exchanged a glance and nodded without another word.

Back in the RV, Martha was walking back and forth in the compartment excitedly.

Her eyes darted around the RV sneakily, staring at the inlaid diamonds. She reached out to touch them with a face full of envy while saying, “Wynnie, these are real diamonds. Oh my, is Philip’s family really that rich?”

Wynn leaned on the bed, glanced at her mother, and shook her head helplessly while saying, “Mom, just b e quiet for a while.”

Martha turned around and walked to Wynn’s bed with a smile on her face. She sat down, took Wynn’s cold hand, and said, “Wynnie, you’re really my good daughter. When you chose Philip back then, it’s a good thing that I didn’t object. I’ve long noticed that Philip isn’t an ordinary person. Sure enough, he’s been concealing his identity the entire time. He didn’t even tell us that his family is so rich.”

When Wynn heard Martha’s words, she asked,” Haven’t you been opposed to us all these years?”

Martha blushed slightly and felt a little embarrassed, but it was her daughter, after all. There was no problem. Thus, she quickly smiled cordially and said, “That’s all in the past. There’s no need to mention it.”

With that said, Martha held Wynn’s small hand tightly and said, “Wynnie, listen to me. Philip is so rich, didn’t he reveal a tiny bit to you before?”

Chapter 1962
Wynn thought about it for a while, frowned slightly, shook her head, and said, “No.”

When Martha heard this, her eyes went taut as she said with a frown, “That’s weird. He’s so rich, but why did he hide it from us?”

After saying that, Martha looked around, got up, and said to the two postnatal care nurses, “You two may g o out first. I have some private affairs to discuss with my daughter.”

The two nurses looked at each other, then at Wynn who was leaning against the head of the bed.

“You may go out first,” Wynn said.

“Yes, Madam.”

After saying that, the two nurses left.

After they left, Martha even made a point of closing the door. Then, she quickly turned around, sat back down again, and took Wynn’s hand. She asked,” Wynnie, has Philip not given you anything all these years?”

Wynn was taken aback and asked, “What things?”

Martha was anxious and said, “Things like gold and silver jewelry, bank cards, or anything of that sort.”

Wynn raised her eyebrows, a little confused about what her mother meant, but she thought about it and replied, “Philip gave me a card before.”

“A card? A bank card? Where is it?”

Martha was excited. If it was given by Philip, it must not be an ordinary bank card.

There must be a lot of money on that card!

Wynn said, “It’s in the villa.”

Although Martha was a little disappointed when she heard this, it was still okay. At least it was still at home

She hurriedly said to Wynn, “Wynnie, listen to me. It’s not that I want to be a villain, but you’re a woman, after all. You even gave him two kids. This time, you almost lost your life.”

Martha pretended to cry before she changed the subject and said, “When you go back this time, you have to tell Philip clearly that you should get half of his family’s fortune. Even if not half, I think onetenth should be enough. This kid is so rich and loves you so much. He’ll definitely agree to your request.”

Hearing this, Wynn finally understood what Martha was thinking and said anxiously, “Mom, what are you thinking? Are you saying that I should get a share of Philip’s assets? How can you do that?”

Wynn was furious!

Her mother was still the same. She was even thinking of Philip’s family fortune now!

Martha knew that Wynn would get angry and quickly said with a smile, “Wynnie, I’m doing this for you. Just think about it. He kept this from us for so many years, so what else is he capable of doing? A man is bound to commit mistakes. You must secure your future in advance. If Philip commits a mistake in the future and kicks you and the children out of the household, what are you going to do then?”

Wynn immediately replied, “It won’t happen. I trust Philip.”

Martha rolled her eyes and said, “You’re too rigid in your thinking. Listen to me, I have experience in such matters. Just do as I say.”

“Okay, I don’t want to listen anymore. Go out. I’m tired.” Wynn lay down and turned her back.

Martha had no other choice. She glanced at her, got u p, mumbled under her breath, and left.

Back to Fulton’s side. His imposing figure led the golden dragon Rolls-Royce to clear the way.

However, at this moment, a wave of killing intent suddenly appeared from the crowd!

Swoosh!

About a dozen men and women with different outfits rushed out of the crowd.

The man in the lead had a sturdy figure like a bear. H e had dark skin and a grim face. He stared at Fulton, full of murderous intent. He said, “My name is Luca Mode. I’m here to challenge Battle God Hash!”

Chapter 1963
The wind blew sluggishly on the street.

These dozen people were dressed in strange outfits and full of killing intent!

Onlookers on both sides of the street took pictures with their phones and chattered incessantly.

“Holy sh*t, is this a TV series or a movie? There are even killers?”

“No wonder the appearance was so flashy. This crew has spent a lot of money!”

“Awesome! I’ll definitely watch this show when it airs!”

With the comments from onlookers, Fulton’s eyes grew colder. Looking at the dozen or so people in front of him, his eyes that were full of killing intent and a hint of disdain landed on Luca Mode. He said,” You’re not my opponent.”

Hearing this, Luca laughed loudly and said, “People say that Battle God Hash is peerless and has amazing combat power. I have no other wish in this lifetime but to spar with you.”

“If the result is death, do you still want to fight with me?”

Fulton said indifferently. Although his tone was light, his domineering arrogance was inadvertently released at that moment.

His simple sentence caused the scene to fall silent!

Luca and the dozen or so people behind him looked furious.

“Haha, as expected of Battle God Hash. Your indomitable attitude is really second to none. However, you shouldn’t underestimate me. At any rate, I’m a person who has entered the fourth zone!”

Luca sneered. With a roar, he made the first move. His body surged with an endless manic aura as he stomped on the ground. His entire body was like a rampaging truck as he raised his fist and rushed ferociously at Fulton!

Fulton’s cold eyes looked at Luca who rushed at him full of murderous intent. A trace of disdain appeared I n them.

At this moment, he crossed his arms over his chest. When Luca got close to him and his fist that carried a gust of wind was about to punch Fulton’s face, Fulton lifted the index finger of his right hand.

Boom!

Suddenly, an invisible wave of air current surged from Fulton’s body and sent Luca flying!

Hiss!

Everyone was shocked.

Ordinary people did not even see how Fulton made the move. They only saw the burly man aggressively raising his fist to punch Fulton. Before he got close, his whole body seemed to be bounced off by a wave o fair and he flew out heavily!

Pfft!

Luca fell to the ground and rolled more than ten meters away. He spat a mouthful of blood and said with difficulty, “Battle God Hash, sure enough…”

Then, he closed his eyes. He was sprawled on the ground, where he took his last breath.

Instantly, the dozen or so killers besieged Fulton together!

Their mission was to intercept and kill the person sitting inside the golden dragon car behind this man!

Facing these dozens of attackers, Fulton stood in place with no change in his expression.

He raised his eyebrows and glanced at the dozen or s o people who rushed toward him. They each had the strength of the third zone.

The person behind this seemed to have spent a fortune, using more than a dozen disciples in the third zone and one from the fourth zone just to send them to their deaths?

Thud!

The next moment, Fulton took a step forward!

This step seemed to shake the earth. No one saw what happened in front of them. The dozen people who rushed up were simply rooted on the spot!

Then, their expressions showed pain as if they were struggling to fight against something.

However, they just remained on the spot like their bodies were suppressed by something!

This was the kingship energy field!

The people outside could not see what was going on a t all. They only saw these dozen or so people suddenly fall to the ground, all of them spitting blood and bleeding from their nose, eyes, and ears.

Chapter 1964
Hiss!

Everyone gasped aloud This scene was too impactful!

Had film making reached this level nowadays?

Were those special effects not supposed to be added post-production?

Almost everyone had the same expression. It looked like these people had rushed up but soon fell to the ground while bleeding from their seven orifices.

It was exactly like special effects added postproduction.

Click, click!

All the flashes started. The unsuspecting onlookers even raised their arms and cheered, “Awesome! This I s amazing! Where’s the director? What film is this? We’ll give our full support!”

Back to Fulton. He lowered his eyebrows and glanced at an assailant by his feet. Judging from the black tattoo of a palace on his neck, he could determine their origins.

Disciples from Country M.

Hehe, the 12 Sacred Halls of the West had also taken action.

Of course, this sudden attack also made Philip, who was sitting in the car, frown.

It seemed that his journey back home would not be a smooth one.

Also at this time, George turned his head and said,” Young Master, the plans that Connor has made against you have started to unfold. Should I send someone to take care of it?”

What a joke.

Since he had decided to bring Connor Clarke and the others back, how could Philip not be prepared?

Their car was equipped with a bug and a pinhole camera. Every move that Connor, Allen, and Levi made was all in Philip’s knowledge.

He did this just to see what the branch family would d o this time.

After taking a deep breath, Philip said grimly,” There’s no need to make a big fuss just to deal with Connor and the gang. Just send some people to deal with it. I don’t want too much to happen on the way back this time.”

Hearing that, George nodded and responded, “Yes, Young Master, I’ll make the arrangements.”

At this moment, Fulton had already walked to the door of the car. Philip rolled down the car window, glanced at the dozen or so people sprawled on the ground outside, and asked, “People from the Nonagon?”

Fulton shook his head and replied, “Disciples from Country M. They’re from the 12 Sacred Halls of the West.”

Hearing this, Philip frowned and asked, “Why would they make a move?”

Fulton replied, “Probably for revenge. Back then, the lord killed four of their kings of disciples. Due to this grudge, the people from the 12 Sacred Halls of the West have been taking small actions against the Clarke family over the years.”

Philip nodded and said, “How much trouble will there be on this journey?”

Fulton replied, “With me around, there won’t be any trouble. The Dragon Knights are already waiting to welcome you at the Uppercreek exit. At this juncture, I’m sure those forces within the country won’t jump out and target you.”

“I hope so.”

With that said, Philip rolled up the car window.

At the same time, Ethan got out of the Rolls-Royce a t the back and got into the RV.

He grinned and said to Wynn who was lying on the bed, “Wynn, my brother is in front. I’ll keep you company here.”

Wynn looked at Ethan, smiled gently, and said,” Thank you.”

Ethan scratched his head innocently and sat at the doorway, leaning against the door frame and playing Connect the Dots.

His only purpose was to protect Wynn.

Although there were Shadow Guards and many Clarke family’s bodyguards outside, there was no guarantee that some problematic fellows would not appear.

Therefore, it was safer for Ethan to stay in the RV with Wynn.

Martha glanced at Ethan who was sitting at the door, walked up with a smiling face, and asked, “Is your name Ethan Clarke? Are you Philip’s cousin?”

Ethan raised his eyebrows, looked at Martha coldly, and replied, “Yes.”

Martha laughed uncannily. She just wanted to get acquainted.

Meanwhile, outside the RV at the end of the street.

Thud!

Thud!

The sound of heavy footsteps resounded throughout the entire street.

At the end of the street, a group of more than 20 fully armed combatants walking at the same pace suddenly appeared!

There was a golden dragon pattern on their chests and arms!

The Imperial Preceptor’s personal guards!

Chapter 1965
All of them were equipped with dragon sabers on their waists and plumes on their heads, their faces rigid and serious!

Moreover, the person in the lead held a golden scroll high in his hand like a holy decree.

The appearance of this group of people shocked the crowd so much that they dared not make a sound. Then, they knelt on the ground!

Everyone along the ten-mile-long street just knelt like that!

Worshipped by the people!

Only the Imperial Preceptor!

Swish!

The man in the lead walked up to Fulton and stopped five meters away. He opened the golden scroll in his hand that was embroidered with gold dragons and said loudly, “By order of the Imperial Preceptor to all forces around, anyone who obstructs the convoy will be deemed as opposing the order and become an enemy of this country. Those who dare to breach the order will be executed!”

At the announcement of the golden order, the entire scene fell silent!

The kneeling crowd trembled at this moment.

It was not from fear but excitement!

That was the Imperial Preceptor!

The supreme glory of the territory!

He was the ultimate figure who resisted the eight kingdoms by himself.

He was a god and the great leader in the hearts of all people!

No one dared to disobey his orders!

At the same time, those forces mixed in the crowd also made phone calls one after another.

Almost all the forces lurking in Uppercreek at this moment ordered a retreat when they heard the Golden Order of the Imperial Preceptor.

It had been ten years!

The Imperial Preceptor’s Golden Order had made an appearance again!

Who dared defy?

That was looking for death!

They might not have personally experienced the horror of the Imperial Preceptor but the rumors and international reputation had terrified them enough!

The point of view shifted to a nearby high-rise. An old figure stood with his hands behind his back in front of the large French window. He watched the Imperial Preceptor’s personal guards appearing on the streets below this building, and a trace of coldness crossed his eyes.

The old man wore a white martial arts uniform. His figure was tall. He had a youthful and ruddy face but was gray-haired, which looked inconsistent with his age.

Behind him was a tall woman with a hot figure. She was wearing a short red skirt with a split hem. She swayed her hips enticingly as she walked to the side o f the old man. She bowed slightly and asked,” Alliance Leader, do we still need our subordinates to test the waters?”

The old man spoke, his voice as loud as a tolling bell. He laughed while saying, “No need. Roger Clarke has played this move well. By using the Imperial Preceptor’s Golden Order to make an announcement to the world, the Clarke family’s future heir won’t ever be changed.”

The woman raised her eyebrows slightly and looked a t the movement below. She said, “Alliance Leader, will the branch Clarke family give up just like this?”

The old man chuckled and said, “Christian Clarke is not an incompetent person. He has brains. Since he hasn’t taken any action so far, he must have some plans. The two Clarke dragons are not to be underestimated.”

After that, the old man turned around, walked to the sofa, and sat down.

The woman heard this and furrowed her beautiful brows. She walked to the old man, knelt in front of him, and massaged the old man’s leg with her soft fists. She asked, “Alliance Leader, are you just going t o ignore what the Imperial Preceptor did?”

The old man laughed and said, “The Imperial Preceptor is the founder of this territory, after all. Although I’m in the same position as him, I still have to show him some respect in certain aspects. Just treat it as a favor to him this time.”

After saying that, the old man leaned back on the sofa and enjoyed the woman’s massage.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes that were dormant with dragon spirit and asked, “Is there any movement over at the Gentleman Court?”

“The members of the Gentleman Court are all in Uppercreek. If the Imperial Preceptor’s Golden Order hadn’t appeared, they would’ve already made a move,” the woman replied.

The old man nodded and said with a smile, “That old fellow has kept the secret long enough. Forget it, let’s go back. Take care of the things here. Don’t leave any traces.”

With that said, the old man got up and left this place under the protection of a few personal guards.

Chapter 1966
The woman with a hot figure bowed and watched as the old man left.

Then, she swayed her hips, walked to the large French window, and watched the scene on the street below. A sinister smile appeared on her fiery red lips that made people jittery.

This woman was extremely dangerous.

After that, she took out her mobile phone and dialed a number. Her red lips parted slightly as she said,” Bernard Johnston, you may start doing what you were told before. This time, don’t let me down.”

Back to the scene downstairs, the man with a dragon saber taking the lead handed the Golden Order holy decree in his hand to Fulton.

Fulton took it in his hand, glanced at the group of people, and asked, “Does the Imperial Preceptor have any orders?”

The man in the lead replied, “The Imperial Preceptor said that your journey this time should be unimpeded. If anyone crosses the line, we’ll kill!”

Fulton did not say anything. He took the Golden Order and shouted, “Depart!”

The convoy set off again.

The streets had long been cleared.

As expected, accompanied by the Imperial Preceptor’s guards this time, the journey was unimpeded and the convoy drove directly to the exit of Uppercreek.

The scene in front once again shocked many onlookers.

On both sides of the exit, black flags embroidered with a golden island were seen everywhere. The Dragon Knights in heavy black armor stood on both sides of the road like upright poles.

The red robes embroidered with golden dragons fluttered in the wind like a bright red battle flag, proclaiming their status as an undefeated cavalry through endless years!

The nine guards stood at the forefront like undefeated knights. They raised their hands and pounded their chests heavily!

Clang!

An earth-shattering noise!

Behind them, 3,000 Dragon Knights raised their fists and pounded heavily on their chests!

Swoosh!

3,000 Dragon Knights moved in unison like a torrent of black steel and knelt on one knee.

Then, roars full of soaring pride resounded through the entire Uppercreek exit.

“3,000 Dragon Knights welcome Young Lord’s return!”

“3,000 Dragon Knights welcome Young Lord’s return!

“3,000 Dragon Knights welcome Young Lord’s return!”

Domineering, passionate!

The heavily armored Dragon Knights impacted everyone’s worldview!

Too hot-blooded!

A man’s blood should be shed on the battlefield!

The Dragon Knights that had never appeared in the real world combined ancient style and futuristic technology in one. The sight was shocking to the senses!

Their roars swept across the sky like a stormy sea!

All the people watching in the dark were filled with horror when they saw this scene!

There was nothing here a moment ago, so how did the 3,000 Dragon Knights with banners suddenly appear?

Horrific!

Simply terrifying!

Philip stepped out of the golden dragon Rolls-Royce at this moment. He walked to the front, looked at the 3,000 Dragon Knights, and said, “Rise!”

Swish!

All 3,000 Dragon Knights stood up in unison, their movements completely in sync.

Too shocking!

Then, Philip looked at the Nine Dragon Guards and said, “Any movements from the branch family?”

One of the nine dragon guards replied through the thick black helmet, “The lord has given his orders. If the branch family dares to cross the line, they’ll be killed!”

Chapter 1967
Philip frowned at those words. Was his father going t o make use of his return to lay out some plans and close the net?

At this time, Martha, who was in the RV, leaned out the window and watched the movement outside excitedly.

“Wow! Wynnie, quick, look outside. Are these people from Philip’s family? This is too exaggerated!”

Martha’s eyes were wide open. For the first time, she felt as small as a frog at the bottom of a well.

This spectacle and pomp were more extravagant than the richest people she knew about!

It was not that Martha had never seen a rich family. She also came from quite a well-to-do family.

The rich only had lots of money and connections.

Those in front were genuine combatants.

What exactly was the background of Philip’s family?

Could it be so exaggerated?

Suddenly, many thoughts crossed Martha’s mind. When she went back this time, she must forge a good relationship with Philip no matter what. It was best t o use Wynn so that she could have a good chat with the in-laws. Perhaps she could even get some money, a house, and others.

Now, Martha began to fantasize about the island that Philip had mentioned in the hospital.

Wynn also sat up slightly and looked at the movement outside the window. Her delicate little face and big misty eyes were full of surprise and excitement at the moment.

Although she had guessed that Philip’s family was not simple, she did not expect this to happen during his return.

What was the difference between this and the king’s return to the palace?

He even had black knights to clear the way.

What exactly did Philip’s family do?

As for Connor and the rest in the black Mercedes behind, when they saw the flags of the Dragon Knights waving in the sun outside, they were full of horror!

“Grandpa, are those the Dragon Knights?” Levi gulped nervously.

Those were the Dragon Knights of Arcadia Island!

They were the entire foundation of the Clarke family.

Once the Dragon Knights appeared, who in the world would dare to compete?

They were the undefeated warriors who protected the Clarke family and the world’s dragon ley lines!

Were they here to welcome Philip home too?

Simply over the top!

Levi’s face looked horrible. He wondered what the branch family was prepared to do. Could they still prevent Philip from going back to the island?

Connor’s face was also gloomy. Looking at the countless Dragon Knights, his heart was in turmoil a s he said coldly, “How dare Roger Clarke use the Dragon Knights so carelessly?! Has he become so arbitrary now? Is there no one from the branch family and law enforcement hall to stop him?”

Connor was flustered. Even the Dragon Knights were dispatched. Would the plans he had arranged be akin to smashing eggs against rocks?

Allen also asked nervously, “Connor, what should we do now? These are the Dragon Knights. Can the people we arranged at sea still take action?”

Connor’s face was cold, his gloomy eyes filling with chills. After a long silence, he said, “Do it! Even if we don’t have any chance of winning, we must give it ag o! If we don’t do it and allow him to go back like this, will we have a good end?”

Upon hearing this, Allen nodded with a murderous expression on his face and said, “Understood!”

Then, Connor said, “Pass the order down immediately to double the number of people! No matter what, kill him at sea!”

“Okay.”

Allen responded and quickly took out the phone he had hidden before. He dialed a number and said coldly, “Double the manpower and give them the best equipment. They must stop him at all costs!”

Connor raised his eyebrows, his gloomy eyes looking at Philip’s back as he stood in front. His eyes were full of killing intent!

Philip, the main family spent such a high price to bring you back. I’ll never agree to it!’

Chapter 1968
Back to Philip’s side, he said a few words to Fulton and got in the car.

The nine dragon knights drew out the dragon saber a t their waists and placed it across their chests.

Clang!

The saber clanked loudly!

Clang, clang, clang!

All 3,000 Dragon Knights drew out the dragon saber a t their waists and pointed them to the sky before placing them across their chests!

“Dragon Knights, listen to the order. Welcome Young Lord’s return. Anyone who dares to stand in the way, kill without mercy!”

The nine dragon knights roared, which sounded like the bellow of a demon king, shocking the entire ten mile radius!

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

3,000 Dragon Knights shouted in unison and turned around. They held the dragon saber in their right hands to the side and cleared the way!

Thud, thud, thud!

Step by step, the shocking sound of footsteps resounded like army troops and filled the entire exit out of the city!

The wind blew and the dust settled.

Philip and his convoy left Uppercreek

In the eastern border near the coastline.

The footsteps of the 3.000 Dragon Knights resounded throughout the coastline. They resembled a torrent of black steel. Their red robes were stamped with golden dragons, fluttering with dazzling luster.

This cavalry that had gone through the ages of history now escorted the heir of the main Clarke family to the coast.

The black banners with a golden island covered the area and flapped in the wind, stretching for thousands of meters along the coastline.

Long before the convoy arrived, the area within a five -mile radius was already filled with armed combatants of the Clarke family!

The moment the convoy arrived, all the fully armed combatants dressed in black combat uniforms, black berets, and black boots already filled the eight major roads leading to the coastline port.

They were all under martial law!

As soon as the convoy arrived, the sound of footsteps on the ground resounded along the coast!

All combatants had a look of respect in their eyes as they watched the golden dragon Rolls-Royce slowly approach the harbor.

On both sides of the convoy, members of the Shadow Squadron looked highly alert.

“Stop!”

Standing three meters in front of the car, Fulton suddenly shouted with coldness in his eyes!

Looking down from a high altitude, the entire port was full of combatants dressed in black, as well as 3,000 Dragon Knights and a convoy.

In the dark, dozens of people with different skin tones and heavy weapons were hiding in the vicinity of the port buildings. They were closely watching the convoy.

In the distance, at the top of a dozen-story building was a tall curvaceous woman with long hair flying in the wind. She was dressed in a tight-fitting fiery red assassin outfit and holding a pair of binoculars. She was staring at the convoy hundreds of meters away. She said into her right earpiece, “They’ve arrived. Check your equipment and listen to my orders.”

However, in her lens, her gaze moved to the forefront of the convoy. When the tall and imposing figure suddenly turned around, his eyes that could pierce through the void directly stared at her before h e sneered.

“Oh no, I’ve been discovered! End the fight quickly!” the woman exclaimed.

Instantly, three burly men of varying skin tones carrying special heavy anti-tank artillery on their shoulders pulled the trigger on top of the building!

Bang, bang, bang!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three rocket missiles with long tongues of fire whistled piercingly from high in the sky hundreds of miles away. They were aimed at that golden dragon and silver phoenix Rolls-Royces, as well as the RV!

Chapter 1969
The three rocket missiles were like fire snakes while leaving trails of white smoke. They were quickly headed toward the three vehicles that were leading the envoy.

Fulton stood still, not moving a muscle.

One member of the Shadow Guards next to the three cars jumped out from the team.

He was protecting the golden dragon Rolls-Royce. H e had a sturdy and burly figure!

The moment the rocket missiles blasted over, he stepped out, and the whole ground seemed to tremble!

Then, he rushed out, raised his fist, shouted angrily, and slammed his right fist directly at the missile!

Boom!

Instantly, the missile collided with the shadow guard’s right fist and exploded with earthshattering sparks!

However, the shadow guard was unharmed. Except for his smoking right fist, he was unscathed!

An explosive punch!

With his bare fist, he punched the missile into smithereens!

This scene made the woman watching from the high building tremble!

Was this still an ordinary human?

At the same time, a tall woman walked out beside the silver phoenix Rolls-Royce. She jumped high, raised her leg, and kicked the middle of the missile. The missile turned directions and headed back to where it came from!

The three brawny men atop the tall building immediately looked shocked when they saw the missile being fired back at them. Their eyes widened as they quickly tried to escape!

However, it was too late!

Boom!

That particular floor of that building was hit by the missile and burst into flames, spewing flying debris everywhere.

At the same time, a shadow guard next to the RV took action almost at the same time as the other two members.

He stood on the spot without moving, his eyes flashing silver as he stared fixedly at the missile.

Instantly, the approaching missile seemed to hovert o a stop ten meters away from the RV, trembling constantly. The flame at the tail went out and the missile fell to the ground, losing its momentum.

Quickly, several combatants ran out and threw the missile into the sea!

At the same time, dozens of combatants in black combat uniforms immediately entered the field with a fighting posture and searched through the port!

When the woman with the binoculars saw this scene from above, a stern look flashed in her eyes as she shouted coldly into the earpiece, “Do it!”

Instantly, the people lurking near the port rushed out at this moment!

The few people in the lead were quite strong. They jumped down from a high altitude, rushed to the approaching combatants, and entered the fray!

Amid kicks and punches, several combatants were blasted away!

There was also a brawny man carrying a two-meterlong saber on his shoulder who smashed his way out the door from inside a huge cargo container. He roared like a bear, brandished the long saber in his hand, and rushed into battle!

“Ah!”

The brawny man who was more than two meters tall flicked the long saber in his hand and slashed several combatants!

After receiving this huge impact, the combatants’ body armor and weapons broke apart. With blood gushing from their mouths, they fell to the floor and fainted!

Some assassins and killers who were more nimble jumped back and forth between the cargo containers I n the port, attacking and killing those combatants who were alone.

For a while, the entire port was filled with gunshots, glints of weapons, and sounds of screams.

Inside the RV, Wynn was startled by the sound outside and looked through the window several times. As there were too many people outside, she could not see anything clearly.

She asked anxiously, “Ethan, what’s going on outside?”

Ethan chuckled and said, “Wynn, it’s nothing, just some acrobats. It’s our family’s tradition to have a performance before going home.”

Wynn wrinkled her pretty brows. She only halfbelieved his words.

Chapter 1970
Martha ran over with horror in her eyes and said to Wynn, “Wynnie, something’s going on. I saw some killers just now.”

“Killers?” Wynn was startled and her face went pale.

Hearing that, Ethan frowned, raised his hand, and grabbed Martha by her back collar. He smiled at Wynn and said, “Wynn, don’t listen to her nonsense. She’s still drowsy from her sleep.”

After that, Ethan dragged Martha out of the bedroom and threw her on the sofa in the living room outside!

“W-What are you doing?” Martha was frightened and looked at Ethan in a panic.

This cousin of Philip was more decisive at acting out compared to Philip.

Ethan raised his leg and stepped on the sofa next to Martha, causing her to shrink back in fright.

“I’m warning you, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll cut your tongue and knock your teeth out.” Ethan’s face was cold and his gaze was grim.

Martha was frightened by Ethan’s words and quickly nodded timidly as she said, “Okay, I know. I understand.”

After saying that, Ethan could not be bothered with Martha anymore. He glared at her viciously before he sat aside and continued to play Connect the Dots.

Martha was flustered and kept peeking at Ethan. The fear in her eyes was gradually replaced by hatred.

‘Damned brat, I’ll let you be arrogant for now! Once I get to the island and meet the in-laws, you’ll see how I’m going to take care of you!

While thinking, Martha began to fantasize about the day she arrived at her in-laws’ house and spent her days as a rich lady.

Back to Philip’s side, he sat in the car, glanced at the movement outside, and asked George who was in the co-passenger seat, “Who are they?”

George replied, “These people have extraordinary skills and are not ordinary people. They don’t seem like people from the branch family. Since we’re already here, the branch family shouldn’t be using such small potatoes to test the waters anymore.”

Philip nodded in agreement.

Since the branch family wanted to stop him, they would not use such petty means to do it.

In that case, whose forces were they?

Meanwhile, the commotion outside got bigger and bigger

Fulton’s eyes were as cold as a blade as he glanced at the dozen or so assassins with extraordinary strength that was far beyond ordinary people’s. He raised his brows and said, “24, you go. Don’t delay our schedule.”

One of the members of the Shadow Guards jerked off the hood of his robe, looking handsome and tough.

Then, he walked toward the center of the battle.

Immediately after, sounds of screams could be heard!

The two-meter-tall gigantic brawn was kicked up to the sky by 24 and landed heavily, crashing into a cargo container with a bang!

The remaining people were also wiped out by 24 within five minutes!

He dragged all the fallen killers and threw them to the front of the car.

Even the woman in the fiery red outfit was caught by 24 at this moment.

Thud!

The woman’s face was full of wounds, and her mouth was bleeding at the corners. Her eyes looked angry and unbridled as she was being forced to kneel on the ground by 24.

At this moment, Philip got out of the golden dragon Rolls-Royce and looked indifferently at the dozen or so assassins on the ground in front of him, as well as the woman who was kneeling.

“Who sent you?” Philip asked coldly.

Chapter 1971
The woman knelt on the ground and spat obstinately. She turned her head away and said coldly, “Kill or torture me as you please!”

Hearing that, Philip’s face darkened. A sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth and he said, “If I give you a way out, will you take it?”

The woman sneered at that and said, “The members of the Clarke family are all cunning foxes. I won’t believe you. Just kill me!”

After saying that, the woman closed her eyes and prepared for the worst.

Philip carefully looked at the woman’s appearance for a few moments. She had good looks, and under her long eyelashes, her eyelids were trembling slightly.

After thinking about it, Philip asked 24 next to him,” You don’t have a wife, right? How about I give this one to you?”

Hearing that, 24 looked aggrieved and said, “Young Lord, this one is too weak. She can’t beat me in a fight and her looks are average. I don’t like her. You can give her to 19. As long as it’s a woman, 19 will like her.”

With that said, the sturdy man who smashed the missile with a fist earlier came over while scratching his head with a foolish smile.

The woman kneeling on the ground opened her eyes in fright when she heard the conversation between Philip and 24!

She was angry and scared.

She was angry that the guy with the crew cut actually said that she was weak and not beautiful enough.

She was considered a diva in the organization!

Was this horrid man blind?

She was scared when she glanced sideways at the tall brawny man scratching his head with a foolish smile. She could not stop her legs from trembling!

He was too tall. If she was his woman, would it not create the image of a train hitting a small cave?

Thinking about it, the woman felt creeped out and shouted with a cold face, “Kill me if you want. I’ll never submit to you! Don’t humiliate me either!”

Philip sneered and said, “Since you’ve become a prisoner, it’s not up to you anymore.”

After saying that, Philip turned around, patted 19’s arm, and said, “She’s for you. Love her well.”

19 laughed and stepped forward. He picked up the woman with one hand and put her over his shoulder.

The woman struggled violently, punching and kicking.

19 hit the back of the woman’s neck with a hand knife and she passed out.

Then, 19 carried the woman back to the team.

Fulton glanced around and asked Philip, “Young Lord, why are you doing this?”

Philip glanced at the calm and vast endless sea before saying, “It’s useful to keep her around. We can slowly dig for some clues.”

Fulton nodded and did not dwell on it.

At the same time, eight heavily armed battleships suddenly appeared on the sea in everyone’s sight!

The momentum of riding the wind and waves was unstoppable!

Sirens blared across the coastline!

Eight battleships ready for battle sounded the sirens!

At a glance, these eight battleships were like steel beasts in the vast blue sea as they broke through the waves and sailed toward the port!

On the battleships, flags with a golden island fluttered in the wind!

The deck of the battleships was full of personnel in black combat uniforms. They had a golden island emblem on their chests!

Two fighter planes were parked on top of each battleship. The magazines were filled. They were ready to strike at any time!

Such a scene completely shocked everyone present!

Battleship escort?

This was simply too exaggerated!

Under the escort of the battleships was a huge golden cruise ship more than 300 meters long!

It was plated in gold!

It was a symbol of luxury and grandeur to the fullest extent!

This huge golden luxury cruise ship with eight floors could accommodate 10,000 people!

There was a golden island logo on the cruise ship branded with the word ‘Clarke’ on it.

It was the exclusive cruise ship of the Clarke family!

Chapter 1972
The whistle of the huge cruise ship resounded across the entire coastline!

Everyone in the vehicles came out one after another a t this moment, stunned by the magnificent scene in front of them!

The eight escort battleships were fully loaded with combatants!

A huge eight-story high and 300-meter-long golden cruise ship docked at the port!

Male and female servants in standard uniforms and more than a dozen butlers in tuxedos stood on the cruise ship.

At this moment, Martha walked out of the RV and was shocked speechless when she saw the scene in front of her. She trembled all over as she stood on the spot. She only came back to her senses after a long while.

She looked as if she had stepped into a fairytale!

She was excited and agitated!

Her brain was buzzing!

Such a huge golden cruise ship was too impactful to people’s worldview!

The eight battleships next to the cruise ship scared Martha so much that she dared not step forward.

At this time, Wynn was also arranged to be placed in a wheelchair by the postnatal care nurses. She was automatically lifted down from the RV.

Seeing this scene in front of her, Wynn was stunned, and her eyes were filled with tears of astonishment.

Philip walked in the afterglow of the sunset to Wynn who was wrapped in a blanket and squatted down. He stretched out his hand, held Wynn’s tender little hand tightly, and said, “Wynnie, we’re going home.”

Wynn looked at Philip with tears in her eyes. She pursed her red lips and covered her mouth as she cried while nodding repeatedly.

Was this her husband’s true identity?

Was this her husband’s family background and heritage?

Wynn had never seen such a big golden cruise ship, not even on the internet.

At this moment, Lydia also got out of the car with Mila in her arms.

When she saw the scene in front of her, she was really shocked. She had long known that Philip was not a simple person but she did not expect it to be to this extent!

What sort of family background would it take to deserve battleship escort treatment?

Mila got down from Lydia’s arms and ran to Philip and Wynn. She clambered into Wynn’s arms, pointed at the golden cruise ship, tilted her head, and asked curiously, “Mom, what kind of ship is that? It’s so big.”

Wynn smiled through her tears, glanced at Philip, and pretended to say angrily, “Ask your father.”

‘Philip, you’ve been lying to me so badly.’
