Chapter 3350
The First Heir
âOh? Why do you say that?â Seeing Philipâs actions, the woman asked.
âI have a grudge against the ancient dragon royal family,â Philip continued to make up a story. âOur
faction was located in a remote village, but a mine was found there, and their people happened to know
about it.â
Everyone listened to Philipâs story as they continued walking.
âThey gave our faction a three-days notice, including the residents of that town. But our people had
been staying there for generations, so how could we leave so easily?â
Philip gritted his teeth and said, âThey resorted to violence when we disobeyed their orders, and even
our mayor who pleaded for mercy was killed to be made into an example. Our faction fell apart
because of that.â
After he finished speaking, Philip raised his foot and kicked Hiram, who was hurrying along.
Hiram had never suffered such collateral damage before. This person who suddenly appeared kept
making things difficult for him.
Hiram said glumly, âMy dear sir, it was the ancient dragon royal family who did that. It has nothing to do
with ordinary citizens like us.â
Seeing Philipâs insistence, several members of the White Marsh royal family pulled Hiram to the edge.
The woman turned to Philip and said, âThe White Marsh royal family has always been kind to others.
You can stay in our territory in the future.â
âThank you for your kindness, Miss. I appreciate it,â Philip said.
âI donât know your name yet.â
Under the mask, Philipâs eyes darted around before he said, âMy name is Carter Marsden.â
The woman nodded and said, âIâm Ayana Wisteria.â
Then, the woman quickly walked ahead.
Seeing that the other party was not interested in talking to him, Philip kept quiet.
Led by Ayana, this group chose a passage and went on. They came across a few stone chambers
along the way, but someone else seemed to have gotten there first, and the contents inside had
already been taken away.
Due to the strong electromagnetic interference, the only function of the communicator in this forbidden
land was to show the time. They found a dry and somewhat clean stone room and decided to camp
there.
Philip unintentionally approached Hiram, who made a fuss about being hungry.
After dinner, the White Marsh royal family made arrangements for some people to stay on guard duty
while the rest got into their sleeping bags. This stone room was pretty dim.
After everyone slept, Philip secretly untied the ropes that bound Hiram.
Seeing Hiramâs bewilderment, Philip whispered, âDonât make a soundâ¦â
Philip slowly created a wall made of earth to hide the two of them and slowly moved to the exit.
The guard on night duty was dozing off, and someone was snoring loudly.
Philip rejoiced at their good luck
The two of them ran for more than ten miles before finally stopping after going through three passages.
Hiram finally saw Philipâs face clearly.
Was this the same person who helped him in the camp last time?
Hiram thanked his lucky stars for this person to help him twice and said, âThank you, Carter! Iâll never
forget your kindness!â
Philip smiled without comment.
