Chapter 3032
The First Heir
Hearing that, the Imperial Preceptor frowned and said, âHow did she make contact with Philip?â
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, âIt should be credited to the little Beelzebub she
abducted. It smelled its kind on Philip.â
The Imperial Preceptorâs eyes turned icy, and he said, âWhen the Beelzebub family wreaked havoc in
the human world back then, they should have been exterminated with no survivors left behind!â
The middle-aged man said, âBut that little one is kind by nature, different from the combat beasts of the
Beelzebub family.â
âHmph!â The Imperial Preceptor snorted coldly and said, âIf they hadnât joined forces to submit the
petition, I wouldnât have agreed to keep that creature.â
The middle-aged man smiled and said, âImperial Preceptor, you were magnanimous. They have found
many things from that little one now, so the benefits to the human race and civilization outweigh the
disadvantages.â
The Imperial Preceptor fell silent at the remark. He looked up at the stars and said, âI hope so.
Immediately send some people to keep an eye on Riverdale. Also, the Heavenly Court is bound to
make another move. We need to be prepared. I donât want any accidents beyond the control of the
chess game.â
âYes, my lord,â the middle-aged man said and left the hall silently.
The Imperial Preceptor stood in the hall, looked up at the stars, and finally said with a sigh, âMaybe the
stargate should be opened ahead of schedule for some people to enter for trainingâ¦â

Back to Philipâs side. At this moment, he had returned to the old house, and he was followed secretly
by the girl and the little creature in her arms.
At the entrance of the old house, the creature in the girlâs arms became extremely frantic and nervous.
All its hairs stood on end.
âWhatâs wrong, Blackie?â the girl asked with concern. Blackie kept panting heavily.
Philip frowned and stared at the girl and the little creature. He asked, âWhat does it mean?â
The girl pondered for a while before she said to Philip in astonishment, âBlackie said that several auras
that frightened it once appeared here.â
Philipâs eyes froze. He stared at the creature in the girlâs arms and said, âAsk it where they came from.â
The girl nodded and did so. She replied, âBlackie said they came from the stargate.â
Philipâs gaze sharpened, he stepped forward, grabbed the girl, and asked, âDo you know the stargate?â
The girl was frightened by Philipâs actions. She pouted and was about to cry. She said, âO-Of course, I
do. Thatâs where I came from.â
âThis girl came from the stargate?â Philip was doubtful.
He let go of her and asked coldly, âWho are you guys exactly?â
The girl pouted and said after a while, âIâm the guardian maiden. Everyone calls me that. I ran away
from the stargate. It was so boring there. I was dying of boredom facing those old men all day long, so I
snuck out.â
Hearing the girlâs explanation, Philipâs eyes froze.
How could a girl who snuck out of the stargate be an ordinary person?
Moreover, the old men she mentioned⦠Could they be?
âTell me the truth, who are you and why are you here?!â Philipâs face became colder.
The girl was startled and muttered, âWhy are you so fierce? Iâm the guardian maiden, and I ran away
from the stargate!â
âHow could a little girl like you run away from the stargate? Do you think Iâm stupid?â Philip retorted.
