312: Chapter 312 The Miller Family is so majestic!_1 312: Chapter 312 The Miller Family is so majestic!_1 “The Ancestral Ritual begins.”
Amidst the curling incense, the solemn and majestic Ancestral Ritual of the Miller Clan comnced.
Knox Miller stood at the forefront of the crowd, reciting the ancestral homage.
Behind him, all the cultivators of the Miller Clan knelt down in unison, forming an impressive expanse.
Non-Miller cultivators sat observing the ceremony in the guest area, their numbers not insignificant, with at least a hundred people present.
Knox Miller continued solemnly with the procedure, finishing the homage and then bowing collectively before proceeding from the highest to the lowest ranks.
Each disciple of the Miller Family had to co forward to offer incense individually while loudly declaring their identity.
The process was simple, but the personal visual impact was quite formidable.
As ti passed, the incense offering slowly drew to a close, signaling the imminent end of the Ancestral Ritual.
Knox Miller stood to one side, quietly waiting.
When the last Miller disciple had finished offering incense, Knox Miller walked back to the center, ready to speak when his pupils suddenly constricted.
Soone had appeared atop the courtyard wall at so point, sitting leisurely and watching this side with a mocking smile on his face.
Carson Flores!
“The Ancestral Ritual concludes here!”
Omitting his speech, Knox Miller directly declared the end of the Ancestral Ritual.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he said in a deep voice, “Carson Flores, you’ve got so nerve to crash our Miller Family’s Ancestral Ritual!”
All eyes turned in unison to see Carson Flores sitting on the wall, and their looks instantly changed.
Carson Flores laughed, “The disciples of the Miller Family, gathering so neatly together, I naturally wanted to co and witness the might of the Miller Family, to see their grandeur!”
Knox Miller sneered, “What, you intend to take advantage of this mont to wipe out the entire Miller Family?”
Carson Flores smiled slightly, “Indeed, I’ve entertained the idea.
After all, it’s not often that the Miller Family gathers so neatly like this.
Such an opportunity only cos once a year, and I indeed want to give it a try!”
The crowd was in an uproar, their gazes varying in the mont.
Although Carson Flores was alone, nobody believed he was without backup.
To claim he could eradicate the Miller Family by himself, his mind would have to be broken.
Oscar Miller laughed loudly, “Carson Flores, just with you?
Do you have any helpers?
Call them all out, let’s settle our old grudges once and for all today!”
Carson Flores chuckled and waved his hand, “Then, as you wish.
Everyone, let’s have a look at the ‘talents’ of the Miller Family.”
Following Carson Flores’ words, more than a dozen figures suddenly soared into the air behind him, neatly alighting on the wall.
On his left was Lydia Howell, and on his right was Michael Roth, wearing a black iron mask.
Flanking both were a row of experts also wearing black iron masks, each with two daggers strapped to their legs, presenting a uniform and streamlined style.
At the sa ti, figures also began to rise from the other three sides, more nurous, creating a dark mass.
As these forces appeared, they rapidly advanced, swiftly encircling all the Miller Family mbers within a ring.
And beyond this encirclent, there were still more layers of people.
Knox Miller’s expression changed slightly.
He had anticipated that Carson Flores might have accomplices, but he had not expected him to gather so many.
Knox Miller’s gaze swept across the crowd and then he burst into laughter, “Firzgerald Family, Martinez Family, Johnston Family, three of the eight great families of Seashore have actually co.
Carson Flores, I have indeed underestimated you!”
Carson Flores smiled, “I am rely the organizer.
After all, everyone finds the Miller Family displeasing to the eye, so why not join forces and strike a blow together?”
Unfazed, Knox Miller’s eyes landed on Taylor Johnston’s face, “The Firzgerald and Miller Families are sworn enemies, their alliance with you is within my expectations.
The Martinez Family has much comrcial competition with the Miller Family, so their participation I can predict.
But the Miller Family and the Johnston Family have no quarrels, why would the Johnston Family make a move?
Don’t tell they too want a share of the Miller Family?”
Taylor Johnston laughed, “The Johnston Family cannot provide help in crisis but can certainly contribute to an easier endeavor.
Carson Flores saved my life, I have to repay that debt.”
Knox Miller frowned, “Carson Flores saved your life?”
Taylor Johnston nodded, “I fainted on the street before.
If not for Carson Flores, I’d be nothing but a corpse by now, and he also cured my chronic illness, allowing to regain my vitality.
Wouldn’t you say that’s a significant debt?”
Knox Miller nodded, his eyes sweeping over the crowd, “Very well, very well indeed.
I’m just curious how many Grandmasters you’ve brought along?”
Castiel Martinez smiled, “There are eight present, with a few more outside.
We’ve been very careful, not to let anything go awry.”
Knox Miller laughed heartily, “Indeed, the Miller Family has four Grandmasters, and Carson Flores killed one, leaving us with only three.
Eight against three, it does seem like the Miller Family doesn’t stand a chance.”
The confident laughter of Knox Miller made Castiel Martinez and the others feel sothing was amiss.
Shiloh Fitzgerald said in a heavy voice, “It seems you’ve co prepared.
Perhaps you’ve also sought help?
Then call them out for us all to see, to determine whether we can handle it or not.”
Knox Miller laughed proudly, “Were it not for my preparations, why would I hold the Ancestral Ritual at such a ti, why would I offer such an opportunity… Mr.
Zhu, please take action!”
