In a large house of the mercenary family, there are more than a dozen old people in their sixties sitting in an orderly manner. The atmosphere between the dozen people in silence seems a bit heavy...
After a long time, an old man sitting in the front row coughed dryly, breaking the dullness in the room, and said in a deep voice: "Fourth Elder, are you sure about the level of strength of the boy that Sophie brought back?"
"Although the strength is not completely certain, after the brief contact at the door just now, the boy's strength should be around the prefecture level..." The old man who was injured by Liu Feng, the fourth elder, thought for a moment.
He muttered.
"Earth level?" The old man's turbid old eyes narrowed in surprise, and he sighed: "What a terrifying cultivation speed. When I left last time, that guy was only at the beginning of the Saint level. I didn't expect that in just one year,
, has actually grown to this point, it would be great if he could be used by my family..."
"Third brother, stop thinking nonsense. In recent years, that girl Sophie has been trying to win over factions that have objections to the Elders Council. It's not like you haven't seen it. And she has such a close relationship with that kid. She wants to
It's obviously impossible for that kid to be used by us... I'm afraid he won't give up until he completely wipes out the power in the hands of us old guys..." An old man in purple robes on the side said coldly.
"Hmph, it's absolutely impossible for the Elder Council to hand over its rights..." The third elder brushed his robe and said coldly.
"Great Elder, how do you handle this matter?" The Second Elder frowned and said respectfully to the old man sitting at the head.
The old man in black robe gradually raised his head, looked around the room with a faint gaze, suppressed those small voices, and then said slowly: "It is impossible to ask the elders to hand over their rights in three words...
"
Listening to the great elder's decisive words, the faces of more than a dozen elders were slightly relaxed. Their joy was revealed...
"Well, Great Elder, that Saint-level boy named Liu Feng will definitely not give up..." The Third Elder said hesitantly.
"Won't you just give up?" The elder's wrinkled old face pulled coldly, and a cold voice came from his mouth: "Tomorrow is when our ancestor comes out of seclusion, and then it will not be his turn to be so arrogant.
Already…”
"Today, let them be arrogant for now. Don't provoke them, otherwise you will be killed by that kid in a rage, and you will have no one to blame... In the current mercenary family, no one can stop that kid.
, everything...let's wait for tomorrow's elders' meeting..." the great elder said coldly.
"Uh...yes..." After being stunned for a moment, more than a dozen elders nodded helplessly. Seeing the great elder's waving gesture, they all had no choice but to walk out of the room with a heavy atmosphere without saying a word...
…
As the crack in the door closes, a trace of light coming from the outside gradually closes, and finally slowly disappears...
In the room, the Great Elder suddenly slapped the table next to him with a fierce slap. The huge force actually smashed the hard table into pieces. He said in a cold and angry voice: "You want to take away my power? You are too much."
If you're a bit naive, even if I accompany the entire mercenary family, I won't hand over the rights to the Elders' House..."
Standing up, the great elder walked quickly into the inner room, and tapped a certain spot on the wall with his palm several times. A huge stone slab was slowly opened on the wall in front of him...
He casually took down a magic lamp and walked in quickly. However, when he was about to close the stone door, he didn't notice it. A black light slipped in from the corner of the wall...
This place is obviously a huge basement. After a while of wandering around like a maze, the uniform earth-colored walls finally disappeared, and a huge courtyard-like residence appeared in front of us...
The familiar man walked forward, passed through the gate, and entered the courtyard. He stopped in front of an old man who was slowly sweeping the floor. He bowed respectfully and said softly: "Grandpa Subie..."
Grandpa Su Bie? This white-haired old man is actually the hidden saint-level powerhouse in the mercenary family: Su Bie?
The palm of his sweeping hand paused slightly, and the old man said slowly: "Didn't I tell you that I won't leave seclusion until tomorrow..."
"Grandpa Subie, the mercenary family has a strong enemy, and it is also an internal enemy..." the elder sighed softly.
"What's the matter? Say..." Su Bie's body paused, and his voice was slightly cold.
"Sophie, the daughter of this patriarch, together with outsiders, actually intends to break up the power of the mercenary family's elders' house. The clan's elders' house is an authority institution established by you. By doing this, Sophie has made it clear that she is not
I always take you into my eyes..." The great elder's old voice still contained a little bit of sadness and anger, which was very touching...
"Really?" Su Bie responded lightly, but didn't speak again...
Unable to figure out what Su Bie was thinking, the First Elder did not dare to say anything. He lowered his head and felt a little uneasy...
"Sully... I was indeed the one who established the Council of Elders, but when I built it, I didn't want to use it to sway every clan leader. What your Council of Elders has done is far beyond what the elders should have done.
Some permissions..." Su Bie raised his eyelids lightly, his voice cold...
"Grandpa, although the Elders Council has occupied too much power, in the final analysis it is for the sake of the entire mercenary family..." The Great Elder argued carefully as his thighs trembled slightly.
"If it weren't for the fact that the mercenary union hasn't had any major incidents in recent years, do you think you could have been sitting in this position for so many years?" Su Bie snorted coldly.
"After the elders meeting is over, return some rights to the clan leader. However, as for what kind of rights to return, it is up to you to discuss..." Su was given the order...
The old eyes lit up slightly, but the elder nodded silently...
"However, although you are wrong, you will not be dismissed from office. As for that girl Sophie asking outsiders to seize power, I will punish her accordingly tomorrow..." Su Bie said calmly.
"Great Grandfather, the person Sophie invited is about the same level as a Saint..." the Great Elder said in a deep voice.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Su Bie was visibly surprised, and his face gradually straightened: "What is the holy level?"
"It seems to be below the prefecture level..." The Great Elder considered his words and said carefully.
"Oh? This girl is quite capable. How can she befriend such a strong person?" Su Bie breathed a sigh of relief and laughed softly.
"So, tomorrow let me see what happens to the person she invited, and then let me see what kind of punishment she will give her..."
"Haha, let's see how grandpa shows off his talents tomorrow. It's already late, so Su Li will retire first..." Smiling proudly in his heart, the elder bowed out respectfully...
Nodding slightly, Su Bie lowered his head again and slowly cleaned the dust stains on the ground. After a while, his head suddenly lifted up, his eyes swept towards the darkness in the corner like electricity, and said coldly: "Where is it?"
Friends, please show up and see me!"
"Jiejie, old guy, his strength is mediocre, but his senses are quite sensitive..." A black smoke twisted and rose from the shadows, forming a huge skull in the courtyard, he said with a sinister laugh.
Looking at this terrifying appearance, Su Bie's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "Who are you, Your Excellency? I, Su Bie, have been in seclusion for more than a hundred years, and it seems that I have never had any grudge against you, right?"
"Hehe, it's true that you didn't, but those pedantic old bastards offended my precious students..." The silver flames jumped, and the skeleton monster laughed.
"Who is your student? Are you mistaken?" The broom in his hand flickered, and a dark blue sword replaced it, Su Bie said in a deep voice.
"Jie Jie, my student is the person you plan to punish tomorrow..." The skeleton's mouth opened and closed, and weird laughter kept coming out.
"Sophie?" Su Bie raised his eyebrows and exclaimed.
"That's right..." It turned out that the person who came was none other than the elusive guy from the Black Evil God...
"Sir, you are Fei'er's teacher, so it seems that the relationship between us shouldn't be such a military one, right?" Mr. Su Bie's guard seemed to relax slightly, and he laughed harmoniously.
"Hehe, that shouldn't be the case? What Fei'er hates the most is the old bastards in the Elders' House, and you are the supporter behind those old bastards. Do you think our relationship should be more enthusiastic?" Black Evil God Yinmang
Jumping slightly, he chuckled and said: "However, if you are willing to announce the dissolution of the Presbyterian Council at the meeting tomorrow, then I can consider our relationship..."
"The Council of Elders is the existence that restricts the patriarch from taking power alone. How can it be disbanded?" Su Bie's face changed and he refused sternly.
"In this case..." Black Evil God smiled slightly, and then said coldly: "Then let me train your soul, and you will be obedient..."
"Rampant!" shouted angrily, and a surge of fighting spirit surged up...
The fighting spirit is tyrannical, but the black energy seems to be even more perverted...
