Chapter 2217

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
The solemn bell rang throughout Clarke Manor.

All members of the Clarke family, who were either dressed in black suits or long black dresses, knelt on the ground and bowed in respect as they made their way to the memorial hall.

At this moment, time slowed down infinitely.

Looking down from a high altitude, rows of people could be seen standing up and kneeling down.

This scene lasted for more than ten minutes before everyone arrived at the main entrance of the memorial hall.

This place was full of gilt black tiles and yellow walls.

It was very majestic.

From a distance, it looked like a palace—very profound and solemn.

Three rows of people stood at the entrance of the memorial hall at this moment. They were all the elders of the law enforcement hall.

At the forefront, an old figure stood with his hands behind his back.

It was the oldest living person of the Clarke family, the grand elder of the law enforcement hall!

He stood there dressed in plain clothes, while th

    The grand elder held a black cane, looked at Philip coldly, and said, “On your knees!” Philip knelt without any struggle or resistance. Smack! The grand elder raised the cane in his hand high in the air and slapped it across Philip’s shoulder with a black stream of light! Instantly, the clothes on Philip’s shoulder ripped apart from the impact! Philip also muffled a grunt. The ripped jacket on his shoulders revealed a white shirt but it was quickly dyed red with blood. Seeing this scene, Wynn was very distressed and anxious. She knelt in front of Philip with Mila in her arms and blocked the next strike from the grand elder. She exclaimed, “Grand Elder, it’s all my fault. It's all because of me that Philip did that. If you want to punish someone, hit me.” The grand elder’s eyes went cold at this scene as he shouted, “Do you think I don’t dare to hit you?” With that said, the grand elder raised the cane in his hand and was about to strike. At this moment, Mila burst int

    Seeing Wynn’s bewildered expression, Philip walked over and asked softly, “What’s wrong?” Wynn’s jaw dropped open as she stared at Philip’s shoulder, which was fine. She asked, “What are you playing at?” Philip smiled and said, “Don’t worry, this is just an act by the grand elder and me to give an explanation to the branch family.” “The grand elder actually agreed to put on this act with you?” Wynn found it difficult to understand. How much did the grand elder dote on Philip to agree to put on a show with him? Was this not the same as deceiving the entire branch family? Philip smiled and looked at Mila, who was blinking her big puzzled eyes and had a face full of question marks. He reached out to hug her and said, “Mila, don’t cry. I’m fine. I was just acting with the grand elder.” Mila nodded and rubbed her red eyes. Philip looked at Wynn and saw that she still could not figure it out, so he said, “Wynnie, don't worry too much. I have everything under control. I can’t te

    There was an old man with a walking cane whose face was cold and weather-beaten. An imposing man stood next to him like a battle god who supported the sky. The two stood there like relics. They were none other than the patriarch of the Clarke family, Roger Clarke, and the first battle god, Fulton Hash! The moment they saw Roger standing in the memorial hall, all Clarke family members climbed up the steps and knelt on the small square that was about 1,000 square feet in front of the memorial hall. “Greetings to the patriarch.” At this moment, no one dared to act recklessly and everyone knelt on the ground respectfully. They bowed their heads in submission. He was the Clarke family’s patriarch, after all. In a place like the ancestral memorial hall, if anyone dared to act rashly, not to mention Roger but even the grand elder would tear them apart. Roger stood in place and looked at the people kneeling. He said softly, “All rise.” Then, he looked at Philip and beckoned,

    Allen Clarke? The branch family was startled and could not figure out why Philip wanted to bring Allen out all of a sudden. However, since he returned, Allen had not even stepped out of the house and declined many meetings related to the branch family. For Philip to say this suddenly, it made it difficult for the branch family to figure out his intention. Wade’s complexion looked quite bad because he knew what Philip was up to. Connor had been recuperating since he returned. During this time, he told Wade what had happened to them in Uppercreek and at sea. Allen had betrayed the branch family. For Philip to bring Allen up at this time was no doubt related to that matter. Sure enough, the main family's guards soon brought Allen, who was dressed in plain clothes, to the small square outside the memorial hall. Allen now looked thin and out of shape. He was withered and had a dull complexion as if he had lost his soul. Following his appearance, everyone started talking

    Wade got anxious and roared. “Philip, don’t you dare accuse the branch family of such heinous crimes! We have never done such a thing! You're making this up!” How could the branch family admit to this kind of thing?! This was the ancestor commemoration ceremony! Roger Clarke was standing there. The grand elder was also present. If they admitted it, it would be the end of the branch family! However, Philip just glanced at Wade coldly before his gaze returned to Allen. He said solemnly, “Allen, don't forget what you promised me.” At this moment, Allen was kneeling on the ground, and his forehead was covered in a cold sweat. His whole body was shaking. He dared not betray the branch family but he was worried that Philip would kill him, his wife, his children, and his grandchildren. In the past few days, he had been kept under close watch by the guards. He could not even move an inch. He simply dared not walk around freely, let alone do anything even within the boundari

    At the scene, all members of the Clarke family looked at Wade with puzzled faces before their gazes turned to Wynn. Who was she? Was she not the young madam of the main family, a cheap woman from the outside world? Who else could she be? As for Wynn, she was a little flustered being stared at by everyone at this moment. She quietly moved to stand behind Philip and muttered, “Phil, why are they looking at me like this?” Philip glanced sideways at her, his eyes a little rueful. He said with a gentle smile, “It’s nothing. I’ll handle everything.” On this side, Wade was full of sneers. He glanced over, pointed at Wynn, and shouted angrily, “She, Wynn Johnston, is not a member of the Johnston family from Riverdale at all! Her background is something else!” Hiss! The scene fell silent. Everyone gasped. They had heard some things about Wynn before. She was from an ordinary family in Riverdale and was the daughter of the Johnston family. Her identity and status were of low

    However, Charles stood with his hands behind his back with a proud look on his face. He said coldly, “I’ll never kneel!” After saying that, he turned to Martha and shouted in a manly manner for the first time, “Martha, get up!” Martha’s legs were weak and she did not want to get up at all. She had been tortured enough. Seeing her parents like this, Wynn felt her heart aching and she could not bear it. She put Mila down, rushed over, and pulled Martha up while exclaiming, “Mom, how did you end up like this? Quick, get up.” Martha looked up at Wynn miserably and wailed. “Wynnie, I don’t want to stay here anymore. I want to go home.” Charles stood aside, glanced at Martha, and scolded, “Weakling!” After that, he looked at Wynn with love and affection. He said earnestly, “Wynnie, we have let you down. You should stay here and be the young madam. Even if they beat me to death today, I won't say anything!” Hearing this, Wade shouted coldly, “Charles Johnston, are you senile? Ar

    As soon as Wade said that, the small square of the memorial hall fell into a dead silence! Hiss! Everyone, whether from the main or branch family, gasped aloud. Then, with various looks of disgust, anger, and hatred in their eyes, they stared at Wynn who was beside Philip! She was actually a member of that family! That sinful family that shook the world a few decades ago, the one that countless forces were mobilized to exterminate! The Lovelace family! That evil family that was nailed to the pillar of shame! In an instant, all kinds of unpleasant words surged in the small square like a stormy sea. “What? She’s the sinned blood of the Lovelace family? Such a person can never become the young madam of the Clarke family!” “Of course! Such a sl*t with sinned blood flowing in her body shouldn't even set foot on Arcadia Island! She should be executed on the spot!” “That’s right, kill her! Such sinful blood is simply a disgrace to the people of the world!” Facing the c

    “He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had

    Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,

    Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,

    The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting

    On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil

    “What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded

    “You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit

    “What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you

    Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard.
