Ouyang Ruoxi was at the back of the hall. She peeked over and saw about a dozen people in the room, sitting on both sides of a long table.
Ouyang Jing was sitting on the main seat presiding over the meeting. The people sitting on both sides were clearly different from each other. It could be seen that one group of people belonged to the clan leader and the other group belonged to Ouyang Xuan.
Ouyang Xuan, who was talking at the moment, had a serious face, staring at Ouyang Jing with some unclear meaning.
Because he could see that Ouyang Jing seemed to be a little different! Before today, Ouyang Jing was a little decadent and helpless, but now he doesn't have such an expression.
Why is this? Could it be...?
When Ouyang Jing heard Ouyang Xuan's words, he didn't have much reaction. He just nodded lightly and then talked about the contents of the meeting.
The meeting was basically about trivial matters, but everyone needed to discuss and decide with each other, so the meeting lasted for nearly an hour.
During this period, Ouyang Xuan did not interrupt. As the patriarch, these matters must be presided over and resolved. If he were the patriarch, he would also do the same thing.
At the end of the meeting, Ouyang Jing said: "The head of the northwest Korean family will hold his seventieth birthday recently, and he also sent an invitation to our Ouyang family. For this matter, I decided to arrange for someone to celebrate."
"The Han family and my Ouyang family have been helping each other in the northwest. For the birthday of the head of the Han family, I think we need to arrange for more important people in the family to pay homage to him!" said an elder from Ouyang Jing's side.
"That's right, but the patriarch can't go! Because the Han family and my Ouyang family are equal families. If the patriarch feels a little inferior after leaving, I think it's better to choose someone in this room to represent the patriarch!" Another one
Said the clan elder who was also on Ouyang Jing's side.
Ouyang Xuan felt bad in his heart, and when he was about to interrupt, Ouyang Jing said directly: "That's the truth, so I decided to arrange for Ouyang Xuan to go to celebrate my birthday on my behalf!"
Ouyang Xuan suddenly felt unhappy and said: "Chief, I still have some things at hand, you'd better arrange for others to go!"
"You can leave the matter at hand to others! The birthday of the head of the Han family is still more important, and your status is more appropriate now, so you should go ahead. As for the matter at hand, you can leave it to me for the time being and I will make arrangements.
Someone else will do it!" Ouyang Jing said, leaving no way for Ouyang Xuan to retreat.
"Haha!" Ouyang Xuan laughed loudly, making people feel as if he had thought of something funny. In fact, when he heard in his heart that he was asked to pay birthdays, he knew that Ouyang Jing was going to fight back.
At the beginning of the meeting, he did not see An Liang appear. Normally, An Liang would stand behind Ouyang Jing, but he did not see him today.
Moreover, he felt that something was wrong with Ouyang Jing's expression from the beginning, which was much better than before. Being suspicious by nature, he naturally patiently listened to Ouyang Jing preside over the meeting.
But at the end, I didn't expect Ouyang Jing to come and act like this.
You know, if he leaves the Ouyang family, the day lilies will be cold when he comes back! If he is here, it will not be so convenient for Ouyang Jing to deal with his underground people.
But once he is gone, it will be very easy for Ouyang Jing to deal with his people. This is why neither he nor Ouyang Jing dare to leave the family easily.
But now that Ouyang Jing wants him to leave, you know what kind of support Ouyang Jing has, otherwise he would never say this.
This shows that either he listens to Ouyang Jing's words and goes to celebrate his birthday, or he hands over the power in his hand. Or he has a showdown to see who has the bigger card.
Ouyang Xuan decided to show off his cards, because if he missed this time, he didn't know when it would be delayed again.
"Clan leader, I have recently developed a set of boxing techniques that I would like to discuss with you. What do you think?" Ouyang Xuan looked at Ouyang Jing and said.
Ouyang Ruoyuan beside him also looked at Ouyang Jing nervously. After his father said these words, he was also very excited. Is it finally going to start?
"No need, let's discuss the matter later. You should go back quickly and prepare to celebrate your birthday!" Ouyang Jing looked at Ouyang Xuan and said seriously.
"What if I insist on asking for it?" Ouyang Xuan refused to give in.
The two people looked at each other for a long time. The people on both sides of the table were also very hostile to each other and were on guard against each other.
Ouyang Jing did not expect that Ouyang Xuan would expand his strength to such a great extent in just a few years! Especially recently, he had already had the idea of abdicating his position in favor of someone more powerful, and he had been insisting on it, but he just thought that once he
If he lets go, his family and descendants who have followed him will suffer misfortune, so he persists.
If Chen Mo hadn't detoxified him after he arrived, today would probably be the day when he completely lost control of the family.
"Haha! Don't you just want to test whether my skill has declined to the seventh level after being injured? Then I will tell you directly and tell everyone!" Ouyang Jing stared at Ouyang Xuan and said.
Ouyang Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he thought: "It's broken!"
"What I can tell you is that all my injuries have healed!" After saying that, he stood up and punched the air in front of him, causing a sonic boom.
Everyone also felt the power of the punch, and most of the clan elders nodded, and it was indeed fine.
"You!" Ouyang Xuan sighed inwardly. Sure enough, he didn't expect that it would be like this. The chess pieces he arranged might have been discovered by Ouyang Jing, otherwise An Liang would not have appeared here.
Even so, at this moment, the arrow was already on the string and he had to shoot. He stood up directly and said: "What if I still want you to abdicate in favor of someone better?"
"Then if you ask me to abdicate in favor of someone new, who will take over as the patriarch of the Ouyang family?" Ouyang Jing was not angry, but asked with a somewhat calm expression.
"Of course it's me!" Ouyang Xuan did his part. After working hard for so long and arranging so many backup plans, it was natural for him to say it.
"You? You are not qualified!" Ouyang Jing said.
Although Ouyang Xuan is still quite good now and is already a ninth-level warrior. But there are still relatively few clan elders who follow him. There are only a few, which is not enough to control the family power. That's why Ouyang Jing said this.
.
As for him, although he has acquired the eighth level of skills, he doesn't care about Ouyang Xuan's skills. As the leader of the clan, he has the upper hand.
"He's not qualified, so why don't you add me!" A person shouted outside, then suddenly opened the door to the room, and walked in at a fast pace!
"who?"
"who!"
"ah!"
When everyone heard someone making a loud noise and forcefully pushing the door open and walking in, they naturally started to yell at each other. However, when they saw the person coming, they all suddenly became quiet. Some even had bitterness at the corners of their mouths. Why is he here?
"Ah!" Ouyang Ruoxi, who was hiding behind, couldn't help but shout out. She didn't expect it to be him!
"Uncle Derui, you're here!" Ouyang Jing said with a frown.
"That's right! I'm here! As I said before, am I qualified enough?" Ouyang Derui asked.
For a moment, everyone on Ouyang Xuan's side felt inexplicably relaxed! Ouyang Derui is known as the closest innate master in the family.
But more than ten years ago, he stopped participating in the clan and instead practiced in seclusion, preparing to attack the innate! But he didn't expect that he would appear here today and support Ouyang Xuan. He really spared no effort!
