Why should they share the slast name, "Walker," when their statuses were so different? "That's right! Our Walker family's family tree can't accommodate someone as important as you!" Zion had grown used to these rumors over the years, but he didn't want Xander's spirit to be affected by them. Zion exclaimed, "We never had such intentions. You're all speaking nonsense without knowing the truth! I don't want to argue with you. We're here today to pay our respects to my brother. Spare us your gossip!" "Get out! We don't want you here. We don't need your prayers!" Lily shouted, "Your family are all guilty parties!" They forcefully pushed them out. "You should go back to your big city. If you truly treated your brother like a brother, Xander wouldn't have been just a stepping stone for you. Don't cback to visit!" Nina looked at them. "Fine, we won't go in.

"As elders, instead of slandering, you should be able to distinguish right from wrong!" Zion defended Nina, glaring angrily at these relatives. "We're all saddened by Xander's death, but we can't ignore the fact that he also made a big mistake, he....." "You, as Xander's older brother, how can you say such things?
