When the old Master Shepherd heard that the City Lord did not care about their past at all and directly intended to arrest him, he knew big trouble was coming and that this time there might be real danger. In a sudden move of desperation, he violently stood up, "Brigham Shepherd, am I not your cousin?"
"Uh..." For a moment, you could hear a pin drop in the City Lord's study. The City Lord's childhood nickname was indeed Brigham Shepherd, and the old Master Shepherd truly was the City Lord's cousin; he had even held little Brigham when he was just a child.
However, those were childhood days, and Brigham Shepherd was a thing of the past. Although some of the older folks still knew of the City Lord's this nickname, who would dare to bring it up? Who would dare to utter it? Let alone in front of the City Lord himself.
In an instant, a murderous intent flashed in the City Lord's eyes, and the whole room became chillingly cold.
