Outside the villa, about twenty young men and women were shivering in the night. They were all the eldest sons and daughters of the Xie family.
"what happened?"
"I don't know, it seems that the old man suddenly called us here."
"It's true, it's already early in the morning, can't the old man wait until dawn before holding the meeting?"
"Shhh, keep your fucking voice down. I heard that the third aunt's family was among the women and didn't want to come over. As a result, her legs were broken and she was dragged over!"
"Hey, where are the brothers Xie Zifeng and Xie Zihao, why didn't I see them?"
"I didn't see it. On the way here, I saw that my uncle's house was surrounded by people. Did something happen?"
"Something must have happened..." Everyone started talking.
No matter how naive and ignorant they are, they still know that something is wrong tonight. Something big must have happened to the Xie family! Otherwise, the family guards would not have come out in full force.
Even high in the sky, from time to time, strong men from the family would fly through the air, causing bursts of roaring sounds.
The entire Xie family is on tight guard!... Compared to the excitement outside the villa, the atmosphere inside the villa is extremely solemn.
even.
Somewhat dead silence.
In the center of the living room, Xie Xuanlin was kneeling on the ground with his hair disheveled. Standing next to him were two strong men with profound auras, expressionless and cold expressions on their faces.
On the sofa opposite, Xie Hongwei was smoking an old cigarette and puffing away smoke. His old fingers were holding the cigarette tightly, and his finger bones were turning white. You can imagine how angry he was at this time.
The smoke filled the air, a bit choking.
But no one around him dared to make a sound.
Many direct descendants of the Xie family gathered together. As soon as they arrived, they saw Xie Xuanlin kneeling on the ground, and there were many strong family members around him, who seemed to be defending something.
Time passed slowly and silently.
Until——Xie Hongwei narrowed his eyes slightly and asked slowly: "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Father, I admit that I used some inappropriate means."
"But!"
"I also do it for the good of the Xie family. Nowadays, the competition in the medicinal materials industry is getting increasingly fierce. High-quality medicinal materials are hard to come by. Since it can accelerate ripening, why not do it?"
Xie Xuanlin's face was gloomy and he said in a serious voice: "Relying on the accumulation over the years, the Xie family's market is expanding year by year, which is what everyone is happy to see."
"Of course, it's all Tang Xuantian's fault. If this person hadn't disrupted the situation, why would our Xie family be in chaos?"
Speaking of which.
A trace of malice flashed across his face.
"Haha, brother is really so quibbley."
A stern sneer sounded from the side: "You colluded with evil spirits and slandered me. Brother, that's not what you said yesterday, right?"
Xie Xuanbai walked out with a sneer: "The reputation of the Xie family has been ruined by you alone. Now words have begun to circulate in the market that the Xie family's medicinal materials are contaminated with evil spirits."
"You are trying to completely ruin my Xie family's ancestral business!"
"You are truly worthy of being a big brother. I really can't compare to you in your cruelty."
Xie Xuanbai looked at the embarrassed appearance of the other party kneeling on the ground, and was secretly happy in his heart. Especially when he saw the old man angry, he felt gloating about his misfortune.
The incident this time has caused a big fuss, and Xie Xuanlin will definitely lose his power.
When the time comes, he will be the one to inherit the power of the Xie family.
"Father, Xie Xuanlin made a big mistake and openly attacked Ansong Medicinal Materials Base. He must be severely punished. I suggest that Ruinan Medicinal Materials Industry be taken back."
Xie Xuanbai spoke in a deep voice: "Colluding with evil spirits is a serious sin, and all his powers must be removed..." "Enough!"
Xie Hongwei waved his hand to interrupt the conversation.
He stood up slowly and strolled to Xie Xuanlin, his eyes calm and unruffled.
"What I want to ask is not about evil spirits."
"But, regarding your fifth brother, Xie Xuanlin, I want you to tell me personally how Xie Xuanhong died?"
Boom! As soon as these words came out.
Not only Xie Xuanlin's expression changed drastically.
The other direct descendants of the Xie family were also struck like thunder, and then they seemed to remember something, and suddenly, everyone's eyes focused on them.
Xie Xuanlin's heart beat faster and he hurriedly said: "Father, fifth brother, fifth brother, didn't he have an accident?" Xie Hongwei closed his eyes, his cheek muscles kept twitching, and his chest rose and fell rapidly.
"Bring it up."
Xie Hongwei spoke indifferently.
Soon, an old man in gray robe led several men into the living room.
The arms of these men were cut off. Although the bleeding was stopped by simple bandages, their faces were still extremely pale and they staggered over.
"Xie Rui!"
Xie Xuanlin's eyes suddenly became cold and stern.
Xie Rui was stared at by this gaze and couldn't help but trembled, but he still walked over bravely.
Xie Hongwei said calmly: "Xie Rui, say what you said to me again in front of him."
"Master, I..." "Say!"
Xie Hongwei shouted loudly.
Xie Rui was startled. He did not dare to look at Xie Xuanlin. He lowered his head and said in a trembling voice: "Dang, I was driving for Xie Xuanlin at that time, and I heard him talking on the phone with his confidant..." Five minutes later.
Xie Rui told all the situation truthfully, especially the details of how Xie Xuanlin commanded his confidants and assassinated Xie Xuanhong's family.
The whole place was dead silent.
Everyone was shocked by the truth of that year.
As the eldest son, Xie Xuanlin actually killed his own younger brother and sister-in-law! At this moment.
Even Xie Xuanbai, who hated Xie Xuanlin the most, was too horrified to accept it.
"You beast!"
Xie Hongwei could no longer control his emotions, so he held the cigarette rod in his hand and slammed it down.
Bang! The jade cigarette rod broke.
Xie Xuanlin was hit so hard that he collapsed to the ground, and blood instantly flowed from his forehead.
"Xuan Hong is your biological brother, how could you bear to do this!"
"Tell me, how can you bear to do it!"
Xie Hongwei looked ferocious and roared angrily: "What evil did I, Xie Hongwei, do in my previous life to give birth to a beast like you!"
Xie Xuanlin collapsed on his knees, lowered his head and said nothing.
"say!"
"Beast, you had the guts to kill your own brother, why don't you have the guts to speak now?"
Xie Hongwei was still not relieved, so he held the broken cigarette rod tightly and smashed it down again.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Every blow was done with all my strength.
Until the broken cigarette rod popped out of his hand, Xie Hongwei was breathing heavily, like an angry old lion, with red eyes.
"Xie Xuanlin, is this serious?"
"You beast, are you going to kill your own brother just because Xie Xuanhong was favored by the old man?"
"I remember that back then, he cried the most and even fainted several times at Xie Xuanhong's funeral."
"It's so sinister. Xie Xuanhong was the most talented junior in my Xie family back then."
"This is simply ridiculous, Xie Xuanlin's heart is to be punished!"
"..." The other elders of the Xie family couldn't help but yell angrily.
Internal fratricide.
This is the most taboo thing for every family, and now, this ridiculous thing has happened to their Xie family.
They also hid it for eight years! During these eight years, there was such a sinister person hidden beside them.
At the thought of this, everyone's backs felt cold.
