Chapter 2288

Instantly, the entire Arcadia Island burst into cheers. The entire world was also excited. From now on,

the Clarke family’s head had changed. However, due to special security reasons, all the shots of Philip

and Wynn had blurred images.

Thus, no one in the world saw Philip and Wynn’s faces clearly.

However, this did not affect the global banquet at all.

***

At the same time, far away in the hinterland of a deep forest, a huge palace was brightly lit. It was

strictly surrounded by guards.

In the hall of this palace, a dozen people sat at a long table. They were all wearing masks that hid their

true appearances.

At this moment, they were looking at the screen in the middle that was broadcasting the global

banquet. The image was paused at the scene of Philip and Wynn waving at the crowd.

The burly figure in the main seat was dressed in a black suit. He propped his chin on his hands and

made a mechanical sound as he spoke to the dozen people below, “The plan has begun. Who among

you wants to try it first?”

A rebellious figure was playing with a short dagger in both hands at this moment. He got up and said

with a cold smile, “I’ll go.”

Looking at the young and arrogant figure who stood up, the head of the group said, “Very well. The

meeting is adjourned.”

The meeting was over.

Two figures walked out of the palace’s entrance one after another. It was a man and a woman. The

man walked with arrogance. The woman had a slim and sexy figure. She caught up and exclaimed

resentfully, “Shane Lovelace, stop right there!”

With his hands in his trouser pockets, Shane stopped and turned around. He glanced at the woman

chasing after him and asked with a smile, “Sister, what’s up?”

Cleo Lovelace angrily chased after him on her high heels. Her arms were crossed over her voluptuous

chest. Her delicate facial features, charming eyes, and flaming red lips all revealed her dissatisfaction

with Shane’s statement at the meeting just now.

She said, “Why did you accept it? You know very well that this isn’t good for us. So many elders didn’t

express their opinion right away, but you did. Do you know what the consequences and punishment will

be once the mission fails?”

Shane snorted and said disdainfully, “What’s there to worry about? I just have to stay with those things

for seven days. Besides, do you have that much distrust for your brother?”

Cleo furrowed her shapely eyebrows and said, “It’s not that I don’t trust you, but according to the

information sent by the scouts, Philip has merged with the Black Dragon Heart. His strength has most

likely reached the fifth zone. If you fight against him, the outcome is unpredictable! Moreover, only we

know about the secret of Wynn’s blood, not the other elders. If anything leaks, you know the

consequences!”

Shane shrugged and said, “I know what I’m doing.”

After saying that, Shane walked away and got into a jeep at the door.

Cleo stomped her foot angrily and chased after him.

Back to the Clarkes.

At this moment, inside the white castle, Roger stood in the living room. Philip, Wynn, and some

important figures of the Clarke family all stood in the hall.

Outside, the crowd was boisterous as people mingled with each other.

Inside this hall, the atmosphere was unexpectedly somber. It was because Roger had lit an eternal

lamp for the grand elder, but at this moment, the lamp flickered on and off as the flame swayed like a

storm. It was as though it would go out at any time.
