The Great Elder Huangfu Jingquan looked around, then changed his subject and spoke again:
"I am not an elder, nor can I appoint or remove the clan leader at will!"
"Besides, I am not a domineering person. To select a clansman who can serve as the leader of this clan, we need to discuss it with you all!"
The clan elders and elders who wanted to take sides just now were confused in their hearts, but they still praised:
"Great Elder, Gao Yi!"
···
Those clan elders who had the upper hand before had no idea what this old guy wanted to do, but they still humbly agreed to the matter.
after all.
Once the other party is allowed to make the decision, they have no chance of ascending to the position of clan leader.
Of course, even though they know that their chances are not great now, they still hold on to a glimmer of hope.
See this.
The great elder Huangfu Jingquan, who was sitting on the throne, glanced outside the meeting hall and said calmly:
"come in!"
next moment.
A figure wearing a pure black mask walked into the hall.
At this time!
A dissatisfied voice sounded in the hall!
"Great Elder, who is this?"
This is a clan elder who remains neutral, older, and more qualified!
He frowned, glanced at the masked monk, and then his eyes fell on the great elder.
Apparently!
He was very dissatisfied that the great elder brought outsiders into the family's important territory.
Especially at this extremely critical time.
Not only ordinary tribesmen are not eligible to participate in this council, let alone outsiders.
If it weren't for the great elder's high position, he would have become angry a long time ago, instead of just being slightly dissatisfied in his tone like now.
There are several clan elders who remain neutral.
At this time, they also cast their gazes on the Great Elder, with questions in their eyes.
As for the other clan elders and elders, they also all focused their attention on the figure standing in the main hall.
But that’s not all!
Some of the clan elders and elders looked at the slightly familiar figures, and their hearts moved, as if they thought of something?
There was a hint of excitement in their eyes, but they soon regained their composure.
After noticing the changes in the expressions of all the clan members present, the great elder Huangfu Jingquan chuckled lightly and said with a smile
"Yun'er, I haven't met any of the elders yet!"
Hear the words.
The figure standing in the hall took off his mask, revealing a handsome face.
"Long time no see, uncles!"
"Yun'er, I would like to say hello to all my uncles!"
With that said, the figure bowed to the clan elders and elders on both sides of the hall!
"Huangfu Yun!"
"Clan leader!"
"Yun'er!"
···
moment.
Many clan elders in the main hall couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
Some clan elders and elders who had already guessed had a look of understanding flashing in their eyes, showing that this was indeed the case.
this moment.
Why don’t many clan elders and elders understand?
Previously, there was news that Huangfu Yun had been killed by the ancestor himself. It was the ancestor who set off the smoke screen in order to protect Qilin'er of the Huangfu Immortal Clan.
At this time!
The great elder Huangfu Jingquan said with a solemn expression:
"You are also aware of Yun'er's talent. Given time, there is a great chance that he will be able to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm!"
"For the sake of our family's inheritance plan, I propose that Yun'er return to the family tree and return to the family. What do you think?"
Hear the words!
Huangfu Yun bowed to the great elder and clasped his fists:
"Thank you, Great Elder, for your love. I don't want to be the leader of the clan, as long as I can return to the clan!"
Regarding Huangfu Yun's remarks, those clan elders who were greedy for the position of clan leader were not at ease.
Once Huangfu Yun returns to the family and enters the family tree again, the position of patriarch will definitely be in the opponent's pocket.
after all.
Qilin'er of the Huangfu Immortal Clan's talent is not only known to the entire family of monks, but also has a certain reputation in the Lumen Sea.
When the time comes, these old guys who want to compete for the position of patriarch...
With Huangfu Yun's domineering temperament, even though he won't do anything, he still can't be squeezed to death?
After figuring out this key, the third elder took a step forward and said with a serious look on his face:
"Great Elder, you need to be careful about this matter!"
"Due to what happened before, Yun'er offended the majesty of the Immortal Alliance, so Ancestor had to secretly protect Yun'er!
What's more, now that the ancestor is gone, the Huangfu Immortal Clan cannot withstand the coercion of the Immortal Alliance. I hope the Great Elder will think carefully...
This matter is related to the survival of our Huangfu Immortal Clan!
It must not be a child's play!"
Those clan elders who wanted to compete for the position of clan leader quickly advised with earnest words:
"yes!"
"Now our Huangfu family doesn't even have a Nascent Soul cultivator, so we can't face the censure of the Immortal Alliance at all."
"Now that the family's strength has dropped significantly, the Zhenhai Alliance will not stand up for the family."
····
certainly!
There are also clan elders and elders who are determined to stand on the side of the great elder!
Some people help, and others naturally refute!
At this time, one of the clan elders stepped forward and said:
"The difficulties the family is facing now are not without solutions!"
At this time, a new elder who supported the third elder let out a light sigh.
"oh!"
Then he smiled and said:
"Uncle Qi, are you talking about the secret order issued by the alliance?
With the whereabouts of ‘True Lord Anlan’, let the Zhenhai League protect our clan!”
"You have been sitting in the clan all year round, so you may not know the reputation of 'True Lord Anlan'!"
"Don't say that the ancestor is no longer around. Even if he is still alive, he will only be friendly with him, but he will never get into trouble with such a person."
"Sixth brother, you are wrong about this. The reputation of 'Zhenjun Anlan' is not only that of some clans, but even ordinary Nascent Soul monks don't know it!"
"So Sixth Brother, please don't accuse some clan elders unjustly!"
Speaking of this, the new elder glanced at the seventh uncle inadvertently.
Hahaha!
"Yes!"
"It's all brother's fault that he speaks unscrupulously for brother's sake!"
The clansman who supported the third elder immediately admitted his mistake with a smile.
After noticing this scene, the seventh uncle's face turned pale and he almost couldn't breathe.
Immediately afterwards.
The new elder said again:
"What's more, this Zhenhai Alliance's secret order is particularly critical to the family's current situation!"
"So, when the family received the secret order, the third elder spent a lot of money to learn from insiders that this person's details were definitely not as the seventh uncle knew. He was an ordinary Yuan.
Infant monk!"
At this time!
The third elder glanced at the new elder who he had cultivated with some satisfaction, and said with a smile:
"Elder Seventeen is serious. This is what this elder should do!"
"Although I spent a lot of money, the information I know is extremely limited!"
"But it is somewhat certain that 'Zhenjun Anlan' is extremely powerful and cannot be provoked by our family, even though the rewards in the Zhenhai Alliance's secret order are extremely generous!"
"But huge benefits also mean huge risks!"
"What's more, even the Zhenhai League didn't dare to issue this order and could only use a secret order instead. This shows that they are afraid of it!"
"Besides, even the huge alliance knows nothing about this person, let alone our family!"
"Even if we find out about this person's identity, it will have a fundamental effect on easing the family's current situation in who knows how many years!"
"Unless by luck, we can find out the details of this person in a short time, but the hope is so slim!"
"Therefore, clan elders and elders, our hopes should not be placed on this secret order."
Hear the words.
Huangfu Yun, who was standing in the main hall, glanced at the third elder who was talking eloquently in the main hall, and a stern look flashed deep in his eyes.
"Anyone who prevents me from returning to the family and rejoining the family tree shall die!"
He knew that his grandfather had died in the Langya Secret Realm. If he missed this opportunity, it would be difficult for him to return to the family once the new patriarch took over.
What's more, without the secret support from his family, his chances of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm are greatly reduced.
In view of these factors, he must fight for the only opportunity at present.
As he thought, Huangfu Yun organized his words in his mind.
Immediately.
The smile on Huangfu Yun's face faded away, with a sincere look on his face, and he said solemnly
"What you uncles said are all mature words, and they have indeed taken into account the family's current predicament!"
Then he changed the topic and said:
"The family may not have a Nascent Soul Lord in charge for a short period of time. Maybe nothing will happen, but how can there be an airtight wall in the world?"
"If by that time, there is no Nascent Soul True Lord to shock those cultivating families, the foundation of our Huangfu Immortal Clan will definitely be forcibly taken away by those Nascent Soul cultivators and the Yuanying family!"
"So the top priority is to select a tribesman who is expected to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, increase cultivation resources, and help him practice!"
"As for Yun'er's qualifications, all your uncles also know it, so Yun'er won't go into details!"
"What the elders said before is quite reasonable, but there is no need to worry!"
"When grandpa was still alive, he had already established connections with the Immortal Alliance, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to protect me secretly."
"As long as I don't show my face and let the Immortal Alliance lose its majesty, the Immortal Alliance will not pursue it."
Let’s talk about this!
Huangfu Yun glanced at the three elders and then said:
"What the third elder said before is indeed reasonable."
"However, Yun'er wants to tell you uncles some good news. Some time ago, Yun'er met with the venerable member of the alliance."
"With the blessing of His Holiness, within a hundred years no Yuanying monks or Yuanying family will dare to attack our Huangfu Immortal Clan!"
"So we, the Huangfu Immortal Clan, don't need to provoke such people!"
During the conversation.
Huangfu Yun stretched out his hand and turned it over, and a simple token appeared in his palm.
On the front are engraved the four characters "Huangfu Immortal Clan", and on the back is a circular pattern in the center, outlining a large character "宝"!
An infusion of mana.
The mighty and unpredictable divine power burst out from the token in an instant, as if the heavenly law descended in panic, looking down at all things in the world!
Such vast and boundless pressure is gone in a flash!
this moment.
The great majesty lingering in the hearts of many clan elders has disappeared.
Likewise, they confirmed that this token was indeed given by His Holiness.
then!
Huangfu Yun stretched out his hand and put the token into his storage bag.
Then he said:
"How about all the uncles, after Yun'er returns to the family, they only exist in secret?"
"I will continue to bother you uncles with matters related to the clan!"
Finished!
Huangfu Yun saluted everyone with a sincere expression.
At this time.
The great elder sitting on the throne on the right frowned and said calmly:
"Yun'er, you...?"
Huangfu Yun shook his head and said nothing!
See this.
The great elder Huangfu Jingquan looked at the clan elders and elders and said:
"What do you guys think?"
Although most clan elders have some thoughts in mind, they still cannot make up their minds.
In fact, this matter is of great concern and has already touched upon the Immortal Alliance, a huge thing.
If one thing goes wrong, the Huangfu Immortal Clan will be destroyed.
But if what Huangfu Yun said is true and the Immortal Alliance secretly no longer pursues the case, then letting Huangfu Yun return to the family is indeed a good choice.
At this time.
The third elder, who understood everyone's thoughts, immediately reacted and said:
"Although this elder also wants Yun'er to return to the family and let Yun'er lead our Huangfu Immortal Clan back to its peak, this matter is very important and we will discuss it someday!"
"Yes, this matter is very involved, so we need to be careful!"
···
Some clan elders who were afraid of being liquidated in the future immediately spoke.
They knew that once Huangfu Yun returned to the family and returned to his position as patriarch, it would be a matter of time.
Even if you can't hold the position of clan leader in your original identity, you can still change your identity and appearance. This is also very easy.
But today the general trend is not with them, and now they can only postpone it.
after all!
For the current Huangfu Immortal Clan, the Venerable's token is a token to avoid death.
See this scene.
The great elder sitting on the throne on the right said calmly:
"This should be done sooner rather than later!"
"I have asked the foundation-building monks in the clan to inform the chiefs in the various sea areas!"
"The chiefs of the major sea areas, who are also the core monks of our Huangfu Immortal Clan, have the right to participate in this matter!"
"Counting the time, they will be back soon!"
"I'll wait here for a while!"
Hear the words.
The clan elders and elders in the main hall obviously knew that the great elder wanted to settle the matter today.
As for the news, there is no need to worry about it being exposed.
After all, the principals of the various sea areas are core figures of the Huangfu Immortal Clan, and there must be family restrictions in the Consciousness Sea, so there is no need to worry about the existence of Huangfu Yun or the death of the ancestor being exposed.
That’s why!
Only then did the Great Elder dare to inform those core executives!
same.
The clan elders and elders in the main hall also understood that this series of layouts must not have been made by the great elder who has been in seclusion for many years.
Obviously.
It is most likely what Huangfu Yun did.
Moreover, it is very likely that the great elder appeared here because he arranged for someone to notify him.
After all, Huangfu Yun is the Qilin'er of the Huangfu Immortal Clan, and has served as the clan leader for a long time.
Among the clan elders and elders present, there must be some confidants.
If you think about it, that's normal!
Time passes slowly!
One by one, the principals appeared in the meeting hall...
The great elder Huangfu Jingquan, who was sitting in the upper right seat, looked around, his sharp eyes fell on an elder, and he asked lightly:
"Have all the principals from all the sea areas arrived?"
See this.
The elder came out of the queue, took a step forward, and said:
"Reporting to the Great Elder, all the principals from all major sea areas have arrived!"
