The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 2201
Hansel hurriedly got up from the ground, turned around, and left the residence with his guards without looking back.

After running for a few minutes, he bumped into Wade, who was rushing over.

Seeing Hansel’s scared appearance at the moment, Wade quickly stopped him and asked, “Hansel, what’s going on? Why do you look so scared? What did Philip do to you?”

Hansel stopped, caught his breath, and said, “Wade, don’t go. Tim is back and I was kicked out by him! He said that if the branch family harasses them again, he’ll kill every single one on sight!”

“What?” Wade shuddered upon hearing that, and a trace of gloom flashed in his gaze!

“Tim is back? Did he really say that?” Wade asked.

Hansel nodded and said, “Yes, right from the horse’s mouth.”

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Wade’s forehead. Glancing at the residence in the distance, he clenched his fists tightly and said, “Okay, since he’s back, let’s go back and reassess the situation.”

Hansel nodded, and they quickly left the main family.

After chasing Hansel away, Tim chatted with Philip and the others for a few minutes before he went to Nelson’s small room.

He looked at the little one sleeping in the incubator.

Tim propped his hands on his knees, bent over, and said with a loving smile, “This kid looks a lot like you.”

Philip just stood on the side and looked indifferently at Nelson in the incubator.

To be honest, he rarely came to see his son. For some reason, he kept feeling like he would not share a close relationship with this little guy in the future.

After watching for a while, Tim left the room and came to the small garden with Philip and Horace to talk.

“Tim, why did you suddenly come back at this time?” Horace asked.

Tim replied, “Tomorrow is the ancestor ceremony. I have to return no matter what. Besides, I received commemoration news that the branch family is going to attack Philip and Wynn during the event.”

When he said this, Tim turned to Philip and asked, “Are you ready?”

Philip stretched his back languidly and said, “I guess.”

Seeing his appearance, Tim laughed and said to Horace, “Look at this brat. He’s still keeping things from us.”

Horace also laughed before he looked at Philip seriously and asked, “What exactly have you prepared?”

Philip looked up at the blue sky and said, “Just some leverage over the branch family. It’s enough to make them lose something.”

Horace frowned and exchanged a glance with Tim. He then shook his head and smiled bitterly before saying, “Tim, it seems he’s not going to say anything.”

Tim smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. As uncles, it’s our duty to stand behind this brat and share the burden for him. You should also be prepared for the ceremony tomorrow. I don’t think the branch family will let it go this time. According to the reports from my subordinates, there has been unusual movement in several of the branch family’s guard squads. Moreover, the branch family has recently made contact with Tucker Stone of District 12.”

“Tucker Stone? That guy dares to covet the Clarke family too?” Horace asked with a frown.

Tim sighed and said, “Alas, District 12 has always been a double-edged sword to the Clarke family. When our sister-in-law took charge of District 12 back then, she joined forces with the Clarke family and helped us to resist many external forces. It also allowed the Clarke family to gain a stronger foothold in this world. However, after that incident, District 12 fell into the hands of others and became a poisonous thorn in the Clarke family’s side.”

Hearing that, Horace frowned and said, “Tim, in fact, I never understood why Roger never took any action against District 12 for so long.”

Tim shook his head and said, “It’s difficult. There’s a secret involving the main family behind District 12 that you may not know about.”

“What secret?” Philip and Horace asked at the same time.

Chapter 2202
They indeed knew very little about District 12. As the third old master of the main family, Horace knew no more than Philip.

After a long silence, Tim said, “District 12 holds the key item to open the seventh zone behind the door. If my guess is correct, upon his return this time, Christian has already stepped into the seventh zone behind the three doors.”

Hearing this, Horace shuddered with a nervous expression on his face and asked, “How is this possible? Roger has sealed off the seventh zone behind the door!”

Tim shook his head and said with a sigh, “This is the key to District 12. Back then, Charlotte’s research on the door was no less than Roger’s. She mastered a special way to open the seventh zone and this method has been sealed in a special location in District 12 all this while. Now, it seems that the branch family has a deep connection with District 12. It’s likely that Christian has obtained the method to enter the seventh zone of the three doors. He must have succeeded in taking that step.”

After saying this, the worried look on Tim ‘s face became more intense. Christian was not what he appeared to be. He had a scheming mind with many tricks up his sleeve. Moreover, he had lots of patience.

Horace’s face did not look good either, and he said, “Then it seems that if Christian brings the members of the branch family to attack Philip and Wynn during the ancestor commemoration ceremony, it’ll be difficult for us to stand up to them without Roger around.”

Philip frowned when he heard this. Things seemed to be beyond his expectations.

Tim thought for a while and said, “There shouldn’t be a problem. Roger will be back. The night of the ceremony is the global banquet, and the announcement will be made to the world at that time.”

Horace nodded, gave Philip a side-eye, and said, “Don’t worry too much. Your uncles are here.”

Philip nodded without saying anything. However, he was very interested in the method left by his mother in District 12 about opening the seventh zone behind the door.

District 12?

Did Seth Larson know about it?

Back to the branch family

Wade sat on the chair and became lost in thoughts, while Hansel sat next to him with a face full of anger. He was surrounded by medical staff who reattached his arm for him. With a cast and bandage, he looked quite comical. It would be too humiliating if the juniors of the branch family found out that his arm was broken by Philip.

At this moment, Wade slapped the table and said angrily, “That damned Tim! He’s gone too far with his arrogance! How dare he say he’ll kill every single one of us in sight? Is he going to kill everyone in the branch family?”

Morrow sat on the main seat. He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed before gasping for breath.

He then said, “That’s enough. Since Tim is back, let’s stop messing around and wait for the ancestor commemoration ceremony tomorrow. At that time, we’ll settle all scores, both old and new.”

Salem sat primly, thought about it, and said, “Morrow, I don’t think the ceremony will proceed as we planned. Now that Tim is back, Roger is bound to return too. If Roger intervenes by force, things will be difficult .”

“Difficult? I don’t believe that Roger can ignore the Clarke family’s rules and side with Philip through force! What’s more, Wynn is a descendant of the sinned blood, the enemy of all Clarke family members and the enemy of everyone in this world!” Wade got up and roared, his face full of anger!

Chapter 2203
Speaking of this, Hansel also slapped the table with his other hand and said coldly, “Morrow, Wade is right. Wynn Johnston is a descendant of the sinned blood, the enemy of the Clarke family and the world! By marrying such a sinned person , Philip is making an enemy out of the Clarke family and the entire world! No matter how powerful Roger Clarke is, can he afford to make an enemy out of the entire world?”

Hearing this, Morrow coughed. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes before he said, “Salem, what do you think we should do? Now that Tim has returned and his attitude is so aggressive, do we really want to make things difficult for Philip and the main family during the commemoration ceremony? This is the point of no return. Once the plan is set in motion, there’s no turning back.”

It was a rare occasion that Salem put away his languid look. With a frown, he closed his eyes, pondered for a while, and slowly said, “Do it! This is an opportunity for the branch family. If we don’t seize this opportunity, it’ll be difficult for us to make headway. Now that the chieftain has been sentenced to confinement by the grand elder, many things will require us brothers to discuss together. What happened this time is the main family’s fault. Levi’s legs have been crippled so we don’t need to care about any sentiments anymore. Let me take care of the law enforcement hall. The success or failure of the matter depends on the ancestor commemoration ceremony tomorrow!”

After Salem finished speaking, a cold look flashed in his eyes. This was a rare sight from this chubby man.

Almost everyone thought that Salem was a branch family head who liked to eat, drink, and be merry, but they did not know that Salem’s position in the branch family was higher than expected! It was not only because of his seniority and identity but more of his brains and resourcefulness!

At this point, Morrow had nothing more to say. He looked at Hansel’s plastered arm and said, “Hansel, you shouldn’t go there tomorrow.

Hansel immediately retorted, “No, Morrow, I have to be there tomorrow! This is a great opportunity to witness the decline of the main family and the destruction of Philip!”

Morrow shook his head. Without saying anything else, he got up and left the hall.

Wade, Salem, and Hansel did not leave immediately. The three of them looked at each other.

Wade was first to speak, “The branch family’s guards who are scattered in all districts of Arcadia Island will be assembled tonight! At the stroke of eight o’clock tomorrow morning, these guards will be secretly arranged to be sent into Clarke Manor. There are as many as 10,00 o of them!”

When he said this, Wade could not help his pride. These were the guards that the branch family had spent a fortune to secretly train in various districts of Arcadia Island! This group of guards was an existence that saw no light of day.

It was a combat group that would only appear as the last resort!

This was the hidden trump card that the branch family had started preparing ten years ago!

Hansel said excitedly, “Wade, this time, we must force our hand and tell Philip to kneel in front of us and confess his guilt properly! The humiliation that was done to us last time was really

hateful!”

Wade snorted and said, “Of course! Philip’s good days are coming to an end. This time, the 10,000 guards of the branch family will be enough to make the main family and Roger drop their jaws in shock!”

“Hahaha, great!” Hansel laughed.

However, Salem looked quite indifferent at this moment as he asked, “Wade, are you sure you can send these guards into Clarke Manor tomorrow at eight o’clock? There are more than 10,000 of them. The number is huge and the target is too big. It ’s too easy to get noticed.”

Wade smiled and said, “Salem, don’t worry, I’ve already thought this through. Under the guise of the ancestor commemoration ceremony, the branch family has taken up the role of providing the guards and security. When the time comes, as long as these guards infiltrate the team of real security guards, they can enter in a steady stream. Moreover, even if they’re discovered, they can kill on the spot!”

When he said this, Wade made a swiping motion across his neck.

Salem thought about it and said with a nod, “Be careful in everything. Don’t alert the enemy.”

Wade said with a smile, “Salem, don’t worry. I’ll personally arrange it.”

Chapter 2204
At night, Philip stood in the yard of his residence with his hands in his trouser pockets.

He looked up at the bright moon and stars in the sky. The sky was filled with stars, forming a vast starry map.

As he looked at the shining stars, he suddenly thought of his mother for a moment. He remembered when he was young, he would lean into his mother’s arms and smell the faint fragrance of her body. He listened to her counting the stars and the stories he told her.

“What’s the matter? What are you thinking? It’s getting windy. Put your coat on.”

Suddenly, a soft voice of concern sounded at Philip’s side.

Philip looked sideways and swept Wynn into his arms.

Wynn accompanied Philip to look at the stars in the sky.

“Wynnie, tomorrow is the ancestor commemoration ceremony,” Philip said.

Wynn hummed and asked, “What about it?”

Philip thought about it but was hesitant to speak. He was really worried that Wynn would suffer from harm during the event.

However, the branch family had set things in motion, and there was no turning back for many things.

During the ceremony tomorrow, Wynn would have to endure no less than him. Many things might take a big turn tomorrow. Philip was taking a gamble.

“It’s nothing. During the ceremony, I’ll do my best to protect you and the children,” Philip said with a smile.

Wynn looked up at Philip, wondering why he suddenly said this. She asked, “Phil, are you hiding something from me?”

Philip shook his head and said, “No, stop thinking about it. You just sat down with me not long ago.”

On this side, unusual activities could already be seen in various districts under the jurisdiction of the branch family on Arcadia Island. Countless fully armed guards appeared from every corner and got into the black commercial vehicles that merged into the traffic.

Their destination was the largest square in each district.

At this moment, the area within a five-mile radius of the squares was under lockdown! Vehicles were only allowed to enter but not to exit! Even the nearby signals were cut off!

As far as the eyes could see, thousands of heavily armed soldiers stood in the small squares of all the districts under the control of the branch family!

Their combat uniforms were all black, and they were equipped with the most advanced weapons! Everyone wore a hood and helmet. Except for their two eyes, nothing else could be seen!

At this moment, a man appeared on the huge electronic display screen in front of the square. It was none other than Wade Clarke!

At this moment, he was also wearing a black combat uniform. With his hands behind his back,

his face was cold as he said solemnly, “All death warriors of the branch family, tomorrow is the ancestor commemoration ceremony. It’s time for you to show your allegiance to the branch family with your life and blood! Now, let me ask you. Who’s the one feeding you?”

“The branch family!” A chorus of shouts resounded throughout the area!

“Who gave you everything?”

“The branch family!”

“To whom do you owe your allegiance?”

“The branch family!”

“The branch family!”

For a while, the voices rumbled! Wade looked at the group of death warriors who had been raised by the branch family for ten years with satisfaction before saying solemnly, “Let’s go!”

Chapter 2205
10,000 special guards of the branch family who had been trained in various places over the past ten years quickly assembled.

Meanwhile, in Philip’s residence, Philip came to the yard alone after tucking Wynn into bed.

A figure suddenly appeared in the yard and said with a hint of laziness, “Young Master, it’s not too late for me to return now, right?”

Philip looked at the figure walking out of the darkness and asked, “Where have you been all this while?”

Rick Davenport walked out of the darkness at this moment, stood beside Philip, and said helplessly, “I was avoiding the pursuit of the Gentleman Court. I almost kicked the bucket in Country M back then. That Rachel Clarke is really a femme fatale. She chased after me for three days and three nights. I barely escaped.”

While saying that, Rick took out a secret file from his pocket and handed it to Philip.

He said, “I found this in the safe of that castle. You’ll be interested in it.”

Philip took the secret file from Rick, glanced through it, and his eyes showed a brilliant light as he took a few deep breaths.

This thing was actually related to the God Creation Project!

Hiss!

Philip gasped, glanced at the secret file, and turned to ask Rick, “Do the people of the Gentleman Court know that you got this secret file?”

Rick shook his head and said, “I don’t think so. That Rachel woman chased after me without knowing who I am.”

Philip nodded, looked at the secret file in his hand, pondered for a while, and said, “Tomorrow is the ancestor commemoration ceremony. What is the status of the things that I told you to prepare in advance?”

Rick collected his lazy demeanor at this moment and said seriously, “Everything is ready. All comrades of the Legion of the Sovereign are stationed at the coastline, ready to rush to Arcadia Island at any time. I estimate that they can get on the island at eight o’clock tomorrow morning!”

Philip nodded with a strong look of reluctance in his eyes. Then, his eyes turned cold as he said, “Since the branch family has made the first move, I have nothing to worry about. I hope they can do something eye-opening during the ceremony tomorrow.”

After saying this, Philip’s body surged with endless cold and murderous intent!

Rick stood on one side, looked at Philip, and said after a while, “Young Master, there’s actually something that I don’t know if I should tell you or not.”

Philip looked sideways and asked, “What is it?”

Rick thought for a moment and said, “It’s about Miss Hannah Clarke.”

“Hannah? Did you find her?” Philip suddenly became excited, and his eyes were clear.

Rick shook his head but nodded again before saying, “I haven’t found her, but I found some clues that involve many forces and other things.”

When Philip heard this, his eyes darkened. He asked, “Who are they?”

Rick replied, “The 12 Sacred Halls of the West, the Gentleman Court, the Alliance, District 12, and the Nonagon are all involved. Miss Hannah seems to be hiding a huge secret. She’s in grave danger, but she’s also very safe. These forces are secretly fighting each other, and it seems that no one dares to take action against her. It’s probably because …”

At this point, Rick fell silent. He frowned as if he was still thinking about what to say next.

Philip frowned and said, “Go on.”

Rick said, “Young Master, I can’t help feeling that there seems to be another force behind Miss Hanah that has been preparing for something. This force is very mysterious, and nothing about them can be found at all.”

Hearing this, Philip’s face grew darker. He lowered his head and thought for a while before asking, “Who do you think this force is related to?”

Chapter 2206
Rick had a hard time deciding. After thinking for a long time, he said, “Young Master, I don’t know if my guess is right, but the force behind Miss Hannah seems to be connected to First Madam.”

“My mother?” Philip asked, his eyes filled with horror!

Rick nodded and pondered for a long time before saying, “Perhaps my guess is wrong. I’ll investigate.”

Philip took a deep breath and was unable to calm down for a long time.

Was it related to his mother?

Meanwhile, in District 12.

Seth Larson’s mansion.

Steven quickly walked in at this moment, his face full of gravity.

He said to Seth, who was sitting in the living room in the middle of his disciple training, “District Master, there’s some unusual movement within the branch Clarke family.”

Seth’s upper body was exposed, and his bronze skin with muscles that were on full display glinted under the light.

He took a deep breath, picked up the towel next to him, and wiped the sweat from his body. He then sat on the sofa and asked, “What’s the situation?”

Steven replied, “Thousands of people are gathering in the districts under the jurisdiction of the branch family.”

Seth sneered upon hearing that and said, “Has it started?”

Steven nodded and said, “According to the news from the scouts, the branch family has gathered 10,000 guards that they’ve been training in the past ten years. They’re ready to enter the Clarkes’ territory tomorrow morning while acting as security personnel for the ancestor commemoration ceremony. Should we make some preparations?”

Seth threw down the towel, picked up the tea on the table, and drank the contents in one mouthful.

With a conspicuous sneer in his eyes, he asked, “How are the movements on Philip’s side?”

Steven shook his head and said, “There’s no movement so far. The people of the main family seem unaware of the branch family’s unusual activity.”

Hehe. Seth laughed and said, “Steven, you underestimate the main family. Tim Clarke is back, and there’s also a freak like Horace Clarke there. Even without Roger Clarke, these two are enough to counter any unscrupulous forces. The unusual movements of the branch family might even be a part of their plan. Pass my order down and tell the men under your command to be ready for battle. Once any strife breaks out in the Clarke family, we must be ready to rescue!”

After saying this, the smile on Seth’s face became gloomier.

Steven nodded and said with a bow, “Yes, District Master!” Then, he turned and left the mansion.

Back to Tucker Stone’s mansion.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in his 50s or 6os sat in front of Tucker in the living room of the mansion. It was none other than Hansel of the branch Clarke family.

Tucker was full of smiles while smoking a cigar . He said to the servants around him, “Why are you standing around? Why aren’t you serving tea to Master Clarke?”

After that, Tucker asked with a smile, “Master Clarke, why are you here in my mansion at this late hour?”

Hansel smiled and went straight to the point, saying, “Master Stone, I won’t beat about the bush with you, so I’ll get right to the point. Tomorrow is the Clarke family’s ancestor commemoration ceremony, and my branch family will take action then. I hope that you can lend us a helping hand when the time comes. As long as my branch family gets what we want, I can guarantee that in the future, District 12 will always be your territory.”

After hearing this, Tucker laughed and said, “Master Clarke, you must be joking. How can I intervene in the internal affairs of the Clarke family? This is tantamount to offending the main family. I can’t afford it.”

Chapter 2207
Hansel laughed and said, “Master Stone, what are you afraid of? You’re one of the district masters of District 12, after all.”

Tucker also laughed and said, “Master Clarke, even so, this is your Clarke family’s internal affairs. If an outsider like me intervenes and the main Clarke family takes offense, the result won’t end well for me.”

Hansel fell silent. His eyes tensed as he asked, “Master Stone, are you sure you won’t help?”

Tucker smiled and said, “Master Clarke, it’s not that I don’t want to help but this is… You should understand that I need to take care of my men. Helping the branch family at this time will pose a great risk for us. If there aren’t enough benefits for my men to risk their lives, I’m afraid I’m powerless to order them around.”

At this point, Hansel naturally understood the meaning of Tucker’s words.

He thought about it and said, “Master Stone, as long as you help the branch family tomorrow, not only will District 12 be yours but I’ll also give you another district to rule. What do you think?”

“Okay!” Tucker suddenly slapped the armrest of the sofa and laughed.

He raised his wine glass and said to Hansel, “Master Clarke, you’re indeed a person who has accomplished great things. You have the drive! I’ll certainly help you with this task. Cheers!”

Hansel smiled and raised his glass to toast Tucker.

The storm started brewing tonight. All forces were in motion. This was a huge vortex enough to engulf everything in its path.

It was near dawn yet Philip was still awake and standing in the yard, waiting for his subordinate’s report.

17 faced the golden light of the rising sun and walked up to Philip from behind.

She bowed slightly and said, “Young Master, the forces of the branch family have already gathered. Tucker Stone of District 12 also made secret contact with Hansel Clarke last night and should be making a move now. As for Seth Larson, he has yet to take action.

Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked at the rising sun indifferently, and said with an exhale, “I see. Contact Buck Jolly and tell them to be ready on standby.”

“Yes!” 17 responded and said, “Young Master, the 13 members of the Shadow Squadron are ready. As long as you give the order, we can wipe out the entire branch family.”

Philip smiled, turned to look at 17’s belligerent face, and said, “It’s not that easy. Just wait for my order.”

17 nodded and said, “Young Master, there’s still one hour before we have to leave.”

Philip hummed, stood for a while, and returned to the living room of his residence.

Wynn had long ago woken up to get ready because the ancestor commemoration ceremony was a big event. Although Philip did not provide too many details, she knew it was a very special day for the Clarke family. Therefore, she wore a black dress and black high heels, looking very solemn and dignified. Even Mila put on a little black dress.

Seeing Philip walk in, Wynn smiled slightly and said, “You should also change your clothes.”

Philip glanced at Wynn and Mila and nodded.

Not long after, Philip put on a black suit, black leather shoes, and wore a black tie. He looked very handsome!

Wynn put on his tie for him and said softly, “Philip, I know the branch family might do something today, but I’m not worried or afraid because with you by my side, I know you’ll definitely protect me, Mila, and Nelson.”

Philip lowered his eyes and looked at Wynn in front of him. She had a lovely face, and her eyes glistened with tears.

Chapter 2208
Philip gently pulled Wynn into his arms and said seriously, “Wynnie, don’t worry. I’m here. I’ll never let anyone do anything to hurt you, Mila, or Nelson.”

Wynn hugged Philip’s sturdy back from behind, raised her head with a happy smile, and said, “Yeah, I believe you.”

On the side, Mila sat on the sofa with her legs stretched out and snickered softly as she said, “Tee- hee, Dad and Mom are hugging. I want Dad to hug me too.”

Philip let go of Wynn, turned around, and picked up Mila from the sofa with outstretched hands.

He scratched her little nose and said, “You little imp.”

Half an hour later, Philip walked out with Wynn and Mila, while the servants pushed Nelson’s incubator.

Under the escort of the heavily armed Shadow Guards, they left the residence and headed for that white castle in the center of the entire Arcadia Island.

Where that white castle was located, there was a huge and magnificent memorial hall shared by the main and branch Clarke families. Any major event of the Clarke family would be carried out here. Today’s ancestor commemoration ceremony was no exception.

At the same time, all the elders, young masters, and young ladies of the main and branch families set out from their residences and went up the mountain to the white castle in an orderly manner while under the escort of the guards.

The servants of Clarke Manor knelt on the side of the roads, bowed their heads, and quietly waited for these people to pass in front of them.

About 20 minutes later, everyone from the Clarke main and branch families was gathered in the small square in front of the white castle.

This place was enough to accommodate thousands of people!

The white castle was surrounded by fully armed guards in black, putting this place under total lockdown! They were armed with guns and stood in place like stone sculptures.

Of course, the small square was also divided into camps of the main and branch families.

The members of the branch family stood on the right while the main family stood on the left.

The ones standing at the forefront were naturally the heads of the families.

In ancient times, the left side was greatly respected.

At this time, in front of the branch family’s camp, Morrow, Salem, Wade, Hansel, and Desmond stood in the forefront with solemn eyes and nonchalant faces.

At the forefront of the main family were Tim, Horace, and a few elders who did not show up much.

At this moment, a few juniors from the branch family muttered, “Hey, why hasn’t the eldest young master of the main family arrived yet? Is he showing off? Look at the time!”

“Hehe, he’s even late for a big event such as the ancestor commemoration ceremony. I really wonder if this eldest young master of the main family is qualified to take on the responsibility of the Clarke family.”

“You said it right! I also heard that he married a slut from the outside world and gave birth to two rotten kids. It’s such a disgrace to the Clarke family.”

The voices of discontent from this group of juniors grew bigger and louder .

Wade and Hansel, who stood at the forefront, exchanged glances with a few others with a sneer.

Then, Wade asked indifferently, “Tim, there are only ten minutes left before the ancestor commemoration ceremony and Philip hasn’t arrived yet. Doesn’t he take the ceremony seriously at all?”

Chapter 2209
As soon as Wade said these words, the entire square fell silent.

All the masters and juniors from the branch families looked at the masters and juniors from the main families with bad looks.

Hansel chimed in: “Fifth elder, I don’t think Philip takes our Clarke family seriously, let alone his ancestors! For such a man, it was the right decision to leave the Clarke family seven years ago. Now, when he comes back, he has tarnished our Clarke family’s face ! He also brought back the prostitute and her rotten offspring, which is even more disgraceful!”

As Hansel’s voice fell, the masters and juniors of the branch families started mocking again, full of sarcasm:

“That’s right, that boy Philip is not worthy of appearing in the ancestral memorial! According to the first elder, a stubborn person like him should be directly expelled from the family tree!”

“I heard that yesterday he broke Young Master Levi’s leg. Such a cruel madman should be put in a dungeon and subjected to one hundred and eight tortures by the Clarke family!”

“What? He broke Young Master Levi’s leg? Damn it! Such a thug should kneel in the ancestral hall and admit his guilt!”

For a time, everyone in the branch family was angry, and their eyes were like a sword, shooting everyone in the main family.

The masters and juniors of the main family are also furious!

“Huh! What are our families doing, there’s no reason the branch families attack our main family!”

“That’s right! The arrogant man Levi lost his leg because he insulted the eldest young master of the main family. That’s what he deserves! He dares to be disrespectful to our young madam, even killing him is not an exaggeration!”

“What our eldest young master is doing, we fully support him! If you branch families can cause trouble to our main family, we are not afraid that it can be even more cruel!”

For a time, the junior group in the main family scolded the juniors from the opposite branch family!

Throughout the small square, loud ridicule immediately resounded.

In the end, Horace shouted in a deep voice: “Enough! Give me some time! What day is it? It’s a big day to commemorate the ancestors! Everyone in our family, should know etiquette, truth and shame, please calm down!”

Horace was silent for a while, and the dozens of main family members behind him also covered their mouths in annoyance, staring intently at the branch family across from him.

Everyone in the main family looked very sour at this time.

Since they weren’t fools, they could naturally understand what Horace had said just now.

What does it mean that people from the family should understand modesty, righteousness and shame?

This is the same as scolding people from branch families for not knowing propriety, truth, integrity and shame!

Wade said angrily: “Horace! Don’t talk too fast! There are still five more minutes before the ancestral memorial begins! The kid Philip hasn’t appeared until now, why? He doesn’t plan to come to the ancestral memorial? It’s fine, let him give up the position the heir of the Clarke family to us branch families. It doesn’t make sense for us to divide the family into main and branch. As long as he voluntarily resigns from the position of heir, what happened in the past will be forgotten by us!” After speaking, the entire small square fell silent.

Everyone in the branch family pouted their mouths, looking at the people in the main family with dark eyes

Horace’s face turned cold and the corner of his mouth smiled lightly: “Wade, I think you still have to care about other things. The position of the heir is not something you can change at will with one word.”

Wade snorted and said: “Horace, even if you don’t agree now, when you enter the ancestral hall later, you still have to agree. So, I’m just reminding you, and giving you a choice. By the way, now there are a lot of troubles between the main families and branch families. After all, we have deep roots, so why be so adamant about fighting each other?”

After saying that, Wade laughed twice, feeling very relieved.

“Hehe, I think Fifth Elder said it well. This is a move the branch family gave to the Clarke family itself. It would be best to talk about it on the table.”

Behind Wade, an old man in his fifties had a smirk on his face.

“Exactly! The people of the main family should think about it clearly.”

The others chimed in.

Chapter 2210
Many of the juniors from the branch families started to sneer again, and even worse words came out.

Several juniors booed Wynn and Mila loudly:

“Humph! The abandoned son of the Clarke family, brought back a prostitute and two wild descendants!”

“If it was me, I would have thrown myself into the sea a long time ago! This is truly the sinner of our Clarke family!”

“I heard that Wynn’s origin is not simple. What kind of sinner’s blood is that?” The blood of sinners?

For a time, the people from the branch family and the main family who were not aware of Wynn’s life journey all showed doubts and serious expressions.

This was naturally set up by Wade beforehand, bide his time, and let off a bit of a signal first.

“Is that the blood of the descendants of sinners?” someone started asking.

Standing in the crowd of branch families, with a sneer on his face, he said, “This sinner’s bloodline is rare. I’ll explain it this way, this Wynn is the Young Madam of our Clarke main family…”

Before he could finish speaking, he felt movement behind him.

Turning his head, he saw a pair of tall eyes full of killing intent, staring at him!

A low voice rang out from his mouth: “What is the blood of sinners?”

The Young Master of the branch family who was about to explain earlier, trembled when he saw the person standing in front of him now.

Philip!

He didn’t have time to finish his sentence.

Boom!

Philip lifted his leg, kicking the man in the chest and stomach!

In an instant, the young master of the branch family flew out and collided with the young master and young lady of the branch family behind him.

“Argh!”

He screamed in pain, kneeling on the ground, covering his stomach, his face twisted in pain.

Philip just looked at him disdainfully, with thirteen Shadow Guard members standing behind him.

Wynn, Mila, and Nelson were naturally guarded by the Shadow Guard in the middle.

After that, Philip raised his eyebrows and stared coldly at the branch family members.

Wherever his eyes went, everyone in the branch family couldn’t dodge.

Then, they saw that Philip stepped forward and came directly to the fifty year old branch family elder who had just spoken.

The old man in his fifties, when he saw Philip standing in front of him, with a chill all over his body, his cheeks twitched involuntarily.

He opened his mouth and asked, “You… what do you want to do? This is a place to commemorate the ancestors!”

Smack!

Immediately after, under everyone’s terrified eyes, Philip raised his hand and slapped the old man’s face.

Then, Philip shouted and asked, “You said that it’s best for the main and branch families to be united, right?”

The old man, covering his cheeks at this time, his mouth was bleeding continuously, his eyes were full of anger, he looked at Philip, stretched out his hand, and asked angrily, “Philip kid! This is a memorial place to the ancestors, how dare you slap the elder of the branch family…”

Smack!

Philip raised his hand, slapped him again, and said coldly: “Look at yourself, are you qualified to unite the main and branch families?”

Chapter 2211
The two slaps from Philip were very imposing, and the old man was stunned for a long time without reacting. Upon seeing Philip’s tall and upright figure, especially the faint coldness flowing from his body, many members of the branch family shrank back and dared not say anything for a while.

As for the old man who was slapped twice, his eyes were red at this moment. His cheeks quickly grew swollen and were burning hot with pain. With round eyes, he glared at Philip, raised his hand, and scolded, “You arrogant brat, how dare you act so boldly in the ancestral memorial hall? I’m the old master of the branch family, your elder! You have no respect for the Clarke family rules at all! Men, come here and take this arrogant brat down! I’ll bring him in front of the ancestors’ memorial plaques and make him kneel and apologize to me!”
