Chapter 2758
The First Heir
Philipâs remark was like a bomb that detonated in the meeting room. In an instant, the meeting room
was full of bubbling emotions, and the heads of the Northern disciple families were very agitated.
By saying such words, Philip did not take them seriously at all!
âArrogant! Donât think that you can belittle our Northern disciple families just because you destroyed the
Singer family!â
âThatâs right! We have more than a hundred disciple families here, and weâre not pushovers! If we join
forces, our strength is not something a junior like you can withstand!â
âOutrageous! The North will never agree to this!â
Hearing everyoneâs angry rebukes, Patriarch Jones smiled and said, âMr. Clarke, we know you have
the power to destroy the Singer family, which is enough for small family heads like us to fear you, but
this is a matter of survival for the Northern supernatural disciples. Weâre not people who will give in just
to survive. If you insist on forcing this matter, Iâm afraid you wonât gain much either.â
Philip hummed and said, âOh, if I understand correctly, you seem ready to negotiate terms.â
Hearing that, Patriarch Crawford glanced at Patriarch Jones and said, âWe do have some terms that
we hope you can consider. We in the North are not unreasonable.â
Hearing this, Philip swaggered over, sat on Patriarch Crawfordâs chair, and crossed his legs. He said
lightly, âLetâs hear it.â
His actions made many Northern family heads angry. Philip Clarke was too insolent. This was a
meeting of the Northern disciple families, but he actually disregarded everyone and sat on the main
seat.
Patriarch Crawfordâs eyes twitched but he made no comment and said, âWe can allow Cherry Villa to
take over the North, but any affairs regarding the Northern supernatural disciples have to be managed
by the Northern people. If you agree to this condition, we can cooperate.â
Hearing this, Philip smiled faintly. After a moment of silence, he raised his eyebrows, looked at
Patriarch Crawford, and asked, âIs this your idea?â
Patriarch Crawford shook his head and said, âItâs everyoneâs decision.â
He was not stupid. At this time, he must not take on sole responsibility. After all, they had strength in
numbers.
The other heads echoed, âYes, this is our joint decision!â
Philip nodded, tapped his temple with his finger, and said, âWhat if I donât agree?â
Philip was not stupid either and could naturally tell the meaning behind this condition. It was equivalent
to giving the title to Cherry Villa without any practical use. Autonomy in the North and disassociation
from the South meant no cooperation.
Patriarch Crawford smiled and said, âMr. Clarke, this is our only condition. If you canât even agree to
this, we wonât allow Cherry Villa to enter the North.â
