Tim snorted and said, “Why, is the branch family so impatient in drawing a clear line with the main family?”
Wade stood up straight at this moment and gnashed his teeth, his eyes full of anger as favonovel.com glared at Tim. He said, “Tim, stop playing word games. Attacking me is the same as disrespecting the branch family! In that case, why should I care about the main family? The branch family’s guards, listen to my command!”
Following Wade’s roar, the dozens of guards from the branch family in the surrounding area drew their guns and pulled the safety. Their muzzles were pointed at the main family in unison.
When the branch family’s guards made a move, the guards of the main family also drew their guns and aimed their muzzles at the people of the branch family without Tim‘s order.
The atmosphere on the scene was on the verge of breaking out. Like walking on a tightrope, the slightest mistake would cause a chain reaction.
Tim smiled faintly and glanced at the confrontation. He turned to look at Philip, who was walking over. He asked with a smile, “What do you think?”
Philip smiled and said, “It’s okay, but now is not the best time to make a move.”
Tim nodded and said to Wade, “Wade, I’ll give you a chance to shoot now. As long as you dare, you can fire at any time.”
Wade was in a difficult position now. His face was flushed and favonovel.com was very angry. However, favonovel.com could not give the order because now was not the best time. If favonovel.com did not shoot, Wade would still feel indignant about it.
For a while, the atmosphere on the scene fell into a bizarre deadlock.
It was also at this moment that Morrow Clarke, the second old master of the branch family who had not spoken until now, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times before saying, “That’s enough, Wade. Let them put their guns away. Today is the ancestor commemoration day, not a day for fighting and killing. Don‘t let outsiders see us as the laughingstock of the Clarke family.”
Since Morrow had spoken, Wade got the chance to make a retreat He glared at Tim angrily and waved his hand before the guards of the branch family put their guns away.
At this point, the skirmish came to a temporary end.
The members of the main and branch families stood in their separate camps again.
Philip also stood at the forefront of the main family on the right side of Tim. Wynn stood behind Philip. Mila was held in Wynn’s arms while the Shadow Guards surrounded Wynn.
Others stood on both sides and behind the main family members.
Wade kept a close eye on the members of the main family. His eyes were grim as favonovel.com stared at Philip and Wynn. A sneer appeared on his face.
“Wade, I think Philip and Tim are too arrogant. During the ceremony later, we must get rid of them in one fell swoop!” Hansel stood beside Wade and reminded in a low voice.
Wade snorted and said, “Of course! Let them be arrogant for now. Once we enter the memorial shrine, it’s time for us to wield our weapons and slaughter them. At that time, Tim can only be a dog under my feet!”
Hansel nodded with a sneer and glanced at Tim. His eyes then fell on Wynn and Mila before finally landing on Philip.
It was also at this time when Philip suddenly turned his head and looked at Hansel coldly.
Hansel was momentarily startled and quickly turned away, pretending not to see anything. However, favonovel.com suddenly heard footsteps.
When favonovel.com turned to look, Philip was already standing beside favonovel.com and staring at favonovel.com coldly.
Hansel was frightened by Philip’s sudden appearance and asked with some annoyance, “W-What are you doing?”
Philip’s action naturally attracted the attention of the main and branch families. This guy had just beaten up two people from the branch family and wanted to pick another fight?
