Several of the branch family members who were gathered together looked over, only to see that the person standing not far away was none other than the elder of the Zong Clan who had been humiliated by Hyōjin during the clan meeting.
"Damn it!"
In an instant, several of the branch family members present cried out bitterly in their hearts.
If it was in the past, they wouldn't have dared to discuss the Zong Clan in public like this. But recently, the things that Hyōjin had done were simply more fantastical than the previous, causing the branch family members to feel a sense of exaltation. Hence, they unconsciously started to discuss it.
The ashen faced elder of the Zong Clan used a fierce gaze to sweep across the four branch family members in front of him. He continued to berate, "You bunch of idiots, how dare you criticize the Zong Clan? Don't you know what kind of sin this is?"
The few members of the Zong Clan hurriedly lowered their heads and admitted their mistake. "I'm sorry, we misspoke!"
Pak pak pak …
However, the elder of the Zong Clan didn't calm down just because they lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes. Instead, he stepped forward and slapped the four of them. He used so much force that the crisp sound of the slaps echoed from the end of the street to the end of the street.
The battle between the three giant spiritual beasts that had spread like wildfire in the village previously wasn't a bad thing for the Hyuga Clan. After all, one of the parties involved in the battle was the Hyuga Clan. That ridiculous battle that seemed to be caused by the children, in a way, could be considered to have displayed the strength of the Hyuga Clan.
However, the more the Zong Clan thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong.
From their point of view, Hyōjin clearly had such a powerful spiritual beast, yet he didn't inform the Zong Clan in advance. Furthermore, he didn't choose the successor of the Zong Clan, Hinata, but chose Ningci instead. Even if this wasn't considered disobedience, it could at least be considered disrespect to the Zong Clan.
The elder of the Zong Clan was already dissatisfied with Hyōjin. Now that such a thing happened, he naturally had a stomach full of anger.
Among the four branch family members who were slapped, three of them lowered their heads and admitted defeat. Only Kuroto Aoki, who was sitting in a wheelchair, had a gloomy expression on his face.
Noticing that Kuroto Aoki didn't show the respect he should have shown, the anger of the Zong Family Elder that had just subsided suddenly flared up again and scolded, "What, you sinner, are you still not convinced?"
Kuroto Aoki took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and bowed his head like everyone else, "I'm sorry!"
"Hmph!" After a cold snort, the Zong Family Elder continued to scold: "Back then, we didn't execute you and your damned brother Hyuga Aoiba together, it was already our Zong Family's special kindness to you. I didn't expect that not only do you not know how to be grateful, but you also slander our Zong Family behind our back. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have let you off!"
Kuroto Aoki, who had already lowered his head, suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't mention Aoba in front of me!"
Seeing Kuroto Aoki suddenly raise his head, the Zong Clan Elder froze for a moment before he shouted, "Audacious! Are you unhappy with the previous judgement? Don't tell me you still hold a grudge? "
Killing intent flashed in Hyuga Aoki's eyes, "Don't mention Aoba in front of me!"
"Seal!"
After perceiving the killing intent in Hyuga Aoki's eyes, the Zong Clan Elder suddenly became furious and immediately activated the Cage Bird Curse Seal.
Ahhhh …
With the activation of the Cage Bird Curse Seal, Hyuga Aoki, who was sitting in the wheelchair, suddenly fell off the wheelchair, and his whole body wailed in pain on the ground.
Hyuga Aoki's wailing almost resounded throughout the entire Hyuga Clan, and soon, the entire area was surrounded by members of the Hyuga Branch Family.
Hearing the commotion, Hizashi also rushed over, and seeing this scene, he hurriedly said to the elder of the Zong Clan, "Lord Elder, please spare him, he is already a cripple, he won't be able to withstand the ravages of the curse seals!"
"Hmph!"
The only response to Richa was a cold snort from the Zong Clan Elder.
Richa had to persuade Hyuga Aoki who was wailing on the ground, "Aoki, don't be stubborn, quickly admit your mistake and beg for mercy!"
Hyuga Aoki didn't seem to hear Richa's persuasion, although he was rolling on the ground and wailing, he still refused to beg for mercy.
The Zong Clan Elder's face changed at this time, and said fiercely: "Waste, do you think you are Hyōjin, you are courting death!"
Hyōjin is the headmaster of the Shinobi School, the direct descendant of the Three Generations Naruto, so he disobeyed the Zong Clan, the Zong Clan Elder couldn't do anything to him, but a cripple from a branch family dared to challenge the authority of the Zong Clan, this made the Zong Clan Elder furious!
However, Hyuga Aoki seems to be determined not to beg for mercy, no matter how the Zong Clan Elder activated the Cage Bird Curse Seal, he refused to give in.
Seeing this, the Zong Clan Elder narrowed his eyes, and his heart was filled with killing intent.
Richa, who was aware of this, quickly said: "Elder, his brain is already confused, and he is a cripple, don't lower yourself to his level!"
Thinking that the other party is just a cripple, even if he is really dissatisfied with the Zong Clan, he can't make any waves, so the killing intent in the Zong Clan Elder's heart slightly receded.
Immediately afterward, the Zong Clan Elder found that more and more members of the branch family gathered, and the expression on everyone's face was getting more and more gloomy, so he loudly announced: "Hyuga Aoki has disobeyed the Zong Clan Elder's orders, he will be imprisoned for three years!"
Richa breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly ordered people to send Hyuga Aoki to the clan's prison.
The Zong Clan Elder's anger did not diminish, and directly found the Patriarch Hiashi in the Zong Clan Residence, and said: "Hiashi, we can't let Hyōjin act recklessly like this anymore!"
Hiashi frowned and did not say anything.
This topic has been discussed several times within the Zong Clan, and he is already tired of listening to it.
The Zong Clan Elder said: "Hiashi, can't you see, Hyōjin is challenging the authority of our Zong Clan!"
Hiashi shook his head: "I understand Kuroto, he won't do such a thing."
"This has nothing to do with whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, what he is doing is shaking the authority of our Zong Clan!" After a pause, the Zong Clan Elder said: "Just now, even that cripple from the branch family dared to show killing intent to me, quickly wake up, Hiashi!"
Hiashi's face sank: "Hyuga Aoki?"
"If it's not him, who else could it be!" At the thought of the scene just now, the Zong Clan Elder was infuriated: "Who do you think gave that cripple the courage to challenge our Zong Clan?"
Hiashi pondered for a while, this news really surprised him. In his impression, after Hyuga Aoki was released, he didn't speak much and didn't intervene in anything, almost like an invisible person. It was only in the last two years that he regained some of his vitality and started to interact normally with the people of Hyuga Clan.
It's hard for him to imagine that such a person dared to show killing intent to the Zong Clan Elder!
The Zong Clan Elder continued: "There is also the matter of the ninja pig, Hyōjin deliberately concealed it, he definitely has evil intentions, we must be on guard!"
