Chapter 2204

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
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 fami

    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, gl

    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 a

    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 ano

    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

    As soon as Wade spoke these words, the entire small square became quiet. All members of the branch family looked at the members of the main family with hostile eyes. Hansel added, “Wade, I think Philip simply doesn’t take the Clarke family seriously, let alone the ancestors! For a guy like that, he made the right decision to leave the Clarke family seven years ago! By coming back now, he's a disgrace to us! He even brought home some cheap trash from outside, which is even more shameful!” As Hansel said this, the members of the branch family started making comments filled with ridicule and sarcasm once more. “That’s right! Philip is not worthy to appear at the ancestor commemoration ceremony! In my opinion, a wrongdoer like him should be kicked out of the family!” “I heard that he broke Young Master Levi’s legs yesterday. Such a brutal man should be imprisoned in the dungeon and subjected to the Clarke family’s 108 tortures!” “What? He broke Young Master Levi’s legs? Damn it!

    Many juniors from the branch family started to kick up a fuss again. More unpleasant words could be heard once more. Several juniors among them cursed Wynn and Mila the most fiercely, “Hmph, an outcast of the Clarke family brought home a sl*t and two wild dogs!” “If it were me, I’d have thrown myself into the sea long ago! What a disgrace to our Clarke family!” “I heard that Wynn Johnston’s background is quite complicated. She seems to be a descendant of the sinned blood?” A descendant of the sinned blood? For a while, people from the branch and main families who did not know Wynn’s background showed puzzled and grave expressions. Of course, this was arranged by Wade in advance as he bided his time and released a small signal first. “What is a descendant of the sinned blood?” someone started asking. A person stood in the branch family said with a sneer, “Being a descendant of the sinned blood is something atrocious. Let's put it this way, Wynn Johnston is the Clarke fam

    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!” Thud! In an instant, four of the branch family’s guards from the surrounding area came over with guns. Philip stood in place, his icy gaze sweeping ov

    Suddenly, a sharp and angry shout resounded like tolling bells. “Presumptuous! Does the branch family have any respect for me, Tim Clarke, at all? How dare you point guns at my nephew here? Do you want to die?” Tim stood with his hands behind his back at the front of the family. Without turning around, his eyes were gazing straight ahead at the flower stands and flower wreaths in front. As soon as he finished speaking, the people of the main family behind him made a path for him. Then, Tim turned around while dressed in a black suit. He had his hands behind his back and walked steadily toward Wade and the others with chills all over his body. He swept his gaze over the guards of the branch family who raised their guns and said, “Put your guns down or be killed!” Seeing Tim’s appearance, the guards of the branch family looked at each other but still waited for Wade’s order. Wade chuckled, turned to Tim, and said, “Tim, they’re the guards of our branch family. Now that I'm

    “I’m surrendering to the humans, not the merfolk. Who do you think you are?” The chief of the fish creatures knew that he stood a chance to survive if he surrendered to the humans, but they would be dead if they gave in to the merfolk. The merfolk hated their existence and could not wait to kill them. On the other hand, the humans did not have a big grudge against them. At most, he would allow Katie to stab them a few times. Moray scowled at his words and trembled with anger. “Fine, remember your words. You’ll pay the price for what you said today.” He turned away from the chief of the fish creatures' arrogant face and glanced at Philip instead. In his opinion, Philip should at least fulfill his promise. However, Philip paid no heed to him at all. “You should know what I want. I won’t take action if you hand it over of your own accord. Although you’re ugly, at least you never messed with me,” Philip said with a smile. The fish creatures could not refute the fact that they

    Tom watched this scene smugly. His plan worked. Although he failed to get Katie’s agreement, he managed to sow discord between Marina and Philip. He could proceed with the next step. Marina was very upset now, so he had to seize the opportunity to intervene. Katie was the center of this fight. It was time for a battle to the death. Philip watched from the sidelines. He would only step forward to provide help when Katie needed it. Otherwise, he would simply keep an eye on her. He wanted to take the opportunity to train her as an ace up his sleeve. The fish creatures were fully prepared to fight Philip and the others, but they had no idea that they were so strong. They thought that the humans had ordinary bodies and could not resist their poison. The fish creatures' venom should be lethal for humans, making them unable to resist. However, these humans seemed indestructible. They had no way to deal with them no matter how hard they tried. “What’s up with these people's bodies?

    Tom was counting on Philip to help them deal with the fish creatures. He thought that he could sit back and reap the benefits, but things were not as simple as imagined. Philip would not fall for it so easily. Philip glanced at Tom, disappointed by the eagerness in his eyes. He did not expect that the simple and honest young man would show such a side. At this time, Tom glanced at Katie. He wanted to take the opportunity to win Katie over to his side. “Katie, just look at the ugly side of these people. I begged Philip to bring you to this world back then, so I’m obligated to protect you. Philip is up to no good. I want to take responsibility for what I did back then,” Tom said righteously. Tom felt smug about it, but it was quickly replaced by tension and worry. Katie looked at Tom in confusion, thinking that maybe he was a little unhinged. “You didn’t beg Philip to take me in back then. I was the one who begged him to take me away. “If you hadn't fled to our fishing villag

    Moray glanced at Philip with disdain and anger, blaming Philip for everything. He would not have suffered this humiliation if not for Philip. “No matter what, I’ll take care of you right now. Putting aside whether I’m working with humans or not, you’ll die as long as you can’t defeat me.” Moray put up a tough front, feeling annoyed about this. He was embarrassed because of Philip. He vowed to cut off all ties with Philip later and never let anyone know that they worked with humans. Aslan was annoyed by Moray’s unpleasant words. “What do you mean, old man? You behaved differently when you wanted to use us and changed your attitude after using us. Are you burning bridges now?” Aslan with his hot temper knew that the best way to deal with Moray was to condemn him. Moray scowled, surprised that someone dared to complain about him. “What do you mean? Do you think I'm a pushover? You used us to help you deal with the fish creatures, and you want to cut ties with us right after th

    Philip had a good impression of Katie. She was passionate about learning and studied very hard. Even Philip felt inferior to her. Since Katie was doing it to seek revenge for her parents, Philip always taught Katie seriously and never kept anything from her. They spoke in a corner privately, and Tom watched with jealousy. Sure enough, Katie had fallen for Philip instead. The way Katie looked at Philip was the same way she looked at Tom back then. It was the worship and admiration for the strong. Tom was depressed at the thought that he had lost Katie in just a few days. Marina keenly noticed Tom's abnormal mood swings. She was curious and wondered what was wrong with him. “Tom, are you okay? Why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell? Or were you scared by the sneak attack just now?” Marina was concerned about her personal guard’s unpleasant look. Unexpectedly, Marina’s concern undermined Tom’s confidence instead. “How could I be scared by those things? Do you really th

    Moray used to be a rational person, but things were different now. With Tom adding fuel to the fire and coupled with his daughter’s attitude, Moray lost his temper. He could not tolerate Philip's existence anymore. He felt as if Philip was going to snatch Marina away, which annoyed him. Due to his dignity, however, he simply advised Marina not to be so stupid. “How do you know that Philip is the person you know? With demons running rampant, their methods are unpredictable. They could even disguise themselves as elves. What else can stop them?” Tom could not bear it any longer and spoke up. He did not expect that Moray was so bad at convincing his daughter. It would be bad if Marina convinced Moray instead. “What do you mean? Are you saying that Philip has been possessed by a demon? Or is this Philip not the person we know?” Marina’s expression changed slightly. Tom had a certain say in this matter because they returned from Philip’s world together and received help from P

    Moray scowled. He did not expect Philip to be right. It was dangerous ahead. He felt embarrassed by his earlier outburst. “Hehe, even if it’s dangerous, that’s no reason to stop. We should…” Marina was angry at her father’s shameful behavior. She wanted Philip to meet her father and have a good chat, but so many things happened instead. “That’s enough. Stop talking. It’s your mistake this time. They told you about the danger ahead, but you insisted on going there anyway. You’re causing trouble on purpose!” Marina was very angry and went to Philip’s side as if she was going to take his side. Tom looked at this scene with jealousy and resentment. Marina trusted Philip more because of this incident. He had made things worse. Philip ignored their internal conflict. He simply found them annoying. He would not object if they wanted to stop the cooperation. “Philip, I heard that the fish creatures have a treasure that allows them to survive in this harsh environment. Maybe we ca

    Loony looked at the merfolk with disdain. Before this, he always thought that the merfolk were smart and beautiful creatures, but reality proved that they were stupid. “Sure enough, only birds of a feather can flock together. Only humans can work together,” Loony said in dissatisfaction. He had always been known as a lunatic, so he did not have to watch his words. Aslan stepped forward on behalf of the monster beasts. “You can't say that. You can criticize the merfolk, but don’t get us involved. We’re loyal to Philip.” Moray was angry at their rebuke and wanted to teach Philip a lesson. “You need to decide quickly. We’re about to arrive. Do you want to give up now? That doesn’t make sense. If you’re a man, you need to take action. Don't let me look down on you.” Moray’s tone was condescending, putting on an air of superiority. “Indeed, I don’t dare to take the risk. Why don’t you take the lead?” Philip said with a smile. He did not take the bait because he did not care ab

    Aslan wiped the mud off his body in annoyance. The mud was very sticky, and no one could avoid it. Aslan was disgusted and cursed the fish creatures to hell and back. “Philip, I feel something is wrong ahead. Is it an ambush?” Black Rabbit looked at Philip nervously. He felt something was not right. Philip was surprised by Black Rabbit’s keen senses and wondered what was going on. “Just speak your mind. There’s no need to hold back. We’re on the same side,” Philip said. Black Rabbit nodded and pointed up ahead. “I feel that there’s something wrong with that place. I think someone has set up a barrier to trap us.” Although Black Rabbit had no special ability, he had very keen senses. If he sensed something wrong, they should check it out. Rabbit joined the discussion. Although he hated Black Rabbit, he had to admit that he was capable. “Black Rabbit has a great perception of danger that's much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners.” Everyone stopped and pondered
