The elderly patriarch, Lord Snow Williams, eventually planned to retire early, and gave up the position of patriarch to his grandson, who had great expectations, and chose to betray the family and follow Lo's Steven.

Of course, he didn't intend to announce this decision among the members of the family, and he didn't even plan to tell Stephen himself that there was no need for such cumbersome things in the Williams family, Snow Williams was the unique ruler of the family, and the decision of the master did not need to be agreed by others.

And the old but not faint Snow, the patriarch was not like his own brother Kadi, who had long since lost his bones, and he intended to bet his bet on Alik, on the side of Heidi and Lowe.

This decision does not mean that he thinks Armandina and Murphy will lose, but he thinks that where the new forces are established, Steven, as a veteran, should gain more trust.

Giving charcoal in the snow is always more important than icing on the cake, and Heidi and Lowe are obviously much younger than Amandina and Murphy, and the possibilities are endless.

However, this decision did not prevent the Snow patriarch from sending someone to report Alik's unusual behavior to Murphy, and he even happily sent a scout team to Twilight again after sending scouts to report to Lord Amandina.

As for the information brought by this team, whether it was first learned by Amandina, or by Yi, who also lived in Twilight, was not a question that Snow needed to consider.

The Williams family is also a behemoth in the wilderness, and the Williams members, who are still attached to the Cardivan family, at least for now, will not be attacked by those scattered wilderness mercenary squads, unless they want to experience the deep family heritage of the Williams family.

The two scout teams travel around the wilderness day and night, and the information is urgent enough that if the information does not arrive in time because of the slackness of a person or a team, Murphy or Arhandina will not mind giving a small punishment to the slacker.

The small punishment of the god of the wilderness is absolutely unbearable destruction for these scout team members who only have super-level strength.

Therefore, Murphy, the patriarch of the Cardivan family, was the first to get Snow's handwritten letterhead, and learned of Heidi and Alik's extremely unusual behavior.

"Defection? She finally chose to leave the wilderness? Could it be that she really saw that person in the city of Black Prison at that time? ”

Murphy sat quietly in the secret room of Cardivan's manor, staring gloomily at the letterhead in front of him, which only had a few words and a dragon and a phoenix in the font, and had the illusion of being provoked.

"Is Old Snow showing me off his calligraphy skills? This old bastard who can't tell whether he's an East or a Wester! ”

Murphy waved his hand lightly, and the letterhead made of thick cowhide in front of him instantly burned, and soon turned into flying ashes, dissipating into the air little by little.

Murphy was in a bad mood, and after he returned from Black Prison City, he recalled his own brother Moddy back to Cardivan Manor, and Murdy's return was much earlier than expected, which is very indicative of something.

At the very least, it shows that Modi didn't come back from the depths of the war-torn ice fields where he was supposed to be, and he didn't even bother to make some superficial statements, even if it was a few days long, as if he was returning from the ice fields.

Does he already have enough capital to challenge his authority?

Murphy's brows furrowed tightly, of course he knew very well what Moddy's capital was, it was the iron-blooded wolf group that only obeyed Murdy himself, and it was the so-called "god-making" ability that he had made some kind of deal with Heidi and finally obtained!

He hadn't spoken to Moddy yet, but he had received the first signs of Heidi's defection to the wilderness, and the attitude of the Williams family patriarch was somewhat subtle.

At least he shouldn't have just mentioned it on his letterhead without mentioning what he was going to do about it.

As for Snow's change of attitude, now is not a good time to delve into it, at least until the current pressing needs are resolved, and Murphy will not find time to hold the other party accountable.

He must first solve the problem of Moddy, and then solve the problem of Alik, who wants to defect, and when these two things are perfectly resolved, it is time to hold the Williams family accountable.

Regular footsteps sounded outside the door, sonorous and steady, and gradually approached the door of the secret room.

Murphy didn't wait for the expected knock on the door, and the closed door was gently pushed open. A tall, burly figure walked in, hesitated and sat down in the chair across from Murphy.

"My time is precious, and I need to get back to the ice as soon as possible, so you'd better make a long story short, my dear Patriarch, my brother."

Moddy's expression was a little haggard, perhaps because of the long journey, which made his words sound a little vicissitudes, and he also lost the sense of awe he once had for the patriarch of the family.

"Moddy, she's going to defect from the wilderness, my brother. Although you still haven't been able to hear the sound of the wilderness, you should know that defecting to the wilderness is absolutely not allowed, and this is the bottom line of the wilderness! So, my dear general, will you continue on the path she has shown you? ”

Murphy didn't directly inquire about Murdy's deal with Heidi in Prison, but instead directly addressed the contents of the letterhead sent by the Williams family, and he didn't seem to be aware of the implicit disrespect in Moddy's previous actions and words.

"Defection? She? Who is she? Your Excellency, Patriarch, I said that my time is precious, so you better not play dumb riddles with me, right? ”

Murdy and Murphy looked at each other, his gaze flickering, but Murphy's gaze was always kind.

"Heidi, Heidi is going to take all of Alik out of the wilderness, and where they will end up, my brother, you should be able to imagine. I know you have this intelligence, otherwise you would not have had some other thoughts about the position I am sitting in, even though I have passed it on to my own son, your own nephew. ”

There was a slight helplessness in Murphy's words, but also a deep sadness, which was extremely rare in Murphy's body.

"Oh, are you talking about your own daughter and son? My dear brother, I have always been very doting on your children, and since I am here today, I have just happened to explain to you my position on the heirs of the Khadivan family. ”

Murdy suddenly stood up, pressing his hands apart on the desk between them, a gesture that made his gaze much higher than Murphy's, and made his mood much brighter.

"You chose your son as the heir to the family, and that's your choice, but as the sole leader of the Cardiven Family's Predators, I have a slightly different choice from you."

With that, Moddy finally straightened up and turned to walk to the door.

If anything, he wasn't used to saying it while staring into Murphy's eyes.

"Compared to Heyman sitting in the position of the patriarch, I choose your daughter to take over the supreme scepter on behalf of myself and the Predator Wolf Regiment, you should understand that I am not talking about the daughter who is about to defect in your mouth, but the Heidi who has been ignored by you, my other poor but persistent niece."

Moddy said enough to decide the final ownership of the patriarch of the Cardivan family, and as he opened the door, he gave his opinion on Heidi's defection.

"As you know, I'm not the god of the wilderness, so it's not my job to betray the wilderness, so I'm not going to get involved. But I believe that the wilderness with you and Arandina will always be impregnable. ”

With Murphy's gloomy gaze, Murdy strode out of the chamber and disappeared into the long hallway.
