Aria said, “Your father has given Giada a restriction order that bans favonovel.com entry on the island for one year. The forces favonovel.com planted in Arcadia Island have more or less been uprooted by your father in secret. Even if some are left, they can’t do anything. You don’t have to worry.”
Philip nodded and looked at the people in front of him. His eyes fell on George, and his gaze became sharp like a mighty king.
He said solemnly, “Issue my Patriarch’s Order. Assemble all guard forces of the main family! Also, formally inform the branch family that if they obey the orders of the main family, they can survive. If they choose to disobey and rebel, they’ll suffer the most severe oppression from the main family!”
“Yes, Young Patriarch!” George replied respectfully.
Philip added, “In addition, inform Uncle Tim and the others about my plans and actions.”
Tim Clarke and Horace Clarke were not on Arcadia Island at this moment. They were both working on something in the outside world.
After preparing a detailed plan, Philip walked out of the white castle and headed to the branch family with his Griffin Army.
***
In the branch family’s ancestral hall, Levi stood in the inner hall with a serious and ugly face.
He shouted angrily, “What did you say? Philip dares to warn us?! Hehe, good, very good! Let’s see if favonovel.com has the ability and confidence to break into my branch family’s ancestral hall!”
“Report!”
Suddenly, a guard rushed in, knelt on one knee, and shouted, “Young Chieftain, the young patriarch and a group of people are less than 100 yards away from the ancestral hall!”
Boom!
Levi slapped the table and shouted angrily, “Very well! Everyone, let’s go and meet this ignorant young patriarch!”
In an instant, all the elders of the branch family followed Levi out of the ancestral hall to the main entrance.
Thud, thud, thud!
From a distance, Levi saw Philip striding over with his Griffin Army.
“Philip, it’s been a while. Sure enough, your demeanor changed after becoming the young patriarch,” Levi said with a grim smile.
Philip stopped, looked coldly at Levi and the elders of the branch family in front of him, and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to welcome me.”
Levi said, “You’re the young patriarch. Of course, we should welcome you.”
Philip laughed, glanced at everyone present, and said, “That’s not necessarily true. From the look in your eyes, I can see that you don’t seem to welcome me.”
Levi laughed and said, “Young Patriarch, this isn’t the place to talk. Why don’t we go inside and have a good talk? The two of us belong to the same family, so we should take care of each other, right?”
Philip shook his head and said, “There’s no need to go inside. The reason I’m here is very simple. I believe you’ve heard many rumors.”
Levi scowled, shook his head, and said, “Rumors? I haven’t heard any. Why don’t you tell me in more detail?”
Philip snorted and said, “I want the branch family to follow the orders of the main family for the next 10 years, and you’re not allowed to harbor any hostility toward the main family.”
