Family Meeting
Without the three keys of the Huang Ling family, the barrier on the sarcophagus could not be opened.
Long Fei had to enter the Huang Ling family.
… ….
An uneventful night.
The next morning, Long Fei woke up early.
However …
He suddenly realized that someone was missing.
Long Fei said: "Where's Uncle Black Knife?"
Black Knife had disappeared!
Scar said: "He was still here last night, why did he disappear in the morning?"
Black Knife had been unconscious all this time, and they didn't know when he would wake up, so they didn't pay much attention to him. It was also because of this that they neglected him.
It was just that …
They did not know that the reason why Black Knife woke up early was because of Long Fei's ghost cries last night.
The power that was filled with excitement woke him up. Seeing that Long Fei and the others had returned to their rooms, he pretended to be unconscious and waited for them to fall asleep before getting up and leaving.
Black Mountain ran up from downstairs and said: "I didn't find him, he should have left."
"This is bad!"
Long Fei thought that Black Knife still had a daughter in Desolate Mountain City, and his heart immediately tightened, "He must have gone to the Desolate Spirit Mansion."
"Let's hurry up."
Long Fei was a little worried.
Black Knife was indeed strong.
But his Achilles heel was his daughter, and the reason why his willpower was so tenacious was also because of his daughter.
Furthermore, he was seriously injured, so he was definitely not a match for her.
Long Fei said: "Bring the Ancient Golden Corpse to the Desolate Spirit Mansion."
… ….
At this moment.
The Desolate Spirit Mansion was bustling with noise and excitement.
Today was the family meeting.
All the elders and important disciples of the Huang Ling family had to attend.
"Great Clan Elder, hahaha … Today is your good day."
"Big brother, from today onwards, you will be the leader of the Huang Ling family."
"Great Clan Elder, I will fully support you."
… ….
On the way to the ancestral hall, Zhang Qitian met many elders, all of whom expressed their goodwill to him. These people were all his people.
After today, he would be the boss of the Huang Ling family.
He would lead the Barren Spirit Family to rise again.
Zhang Qitian's face was beaming with pride. He already had everything in his hands. As long as he could kick Zhang Xinyue out of the Huang Ling family, the entire family would follow his lead.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel proud.
Contrary to Zhang Qitian.
As Zhang Xinyue walked on the road, not a single person greeted her. They even cast her looks of contempt, disdain, and all kinds of mocking laughter.
"Even a good dog doesn't stand in the way. As a member of the Huang Ling family, how dare you fight with the Great Elder for the position of Patriarch? What right do you have?"
"You don't want to be the Young Mistress, but you insist on coming out to look for trouble."
"Hmph, how can a woman manage a Barren Spirit family?"
"I really don't know what she's thinking."
…
Along the way, he heard all kinds of mocking comments.
Zhang Xinyue turned a deaf ear to them, her expression calm. Such mockery and disdain had never ceased since she became the head of the Huangling Family.
She was used to it.
No matter what.
For her father's dying wish, for the entire Huang Ling family, no matter how much mockery and pressure she faced, she would endure it.
In the ancestral hall.
The nine elders of the Elder Pavilion had already taken their seats.
The surroundings were also filled with the elite disciples of the family.
At this time.
Zhang Qitian walked into the ancestral hall.
All the elders in the ancestral hall stood up to welcome him. It was obvious that Zhang Qitian had everything under control.
On the other hand, Zhang Xinyue, as the Patriarch, looked at him with cold disdain.
Not a single elder stood up for her.
Half an hour later.
The head of the Elder Pavilion, Zhang Chengtian, stood up and said: "Almost everyone is here, we can begin."
"This family meeting is about the new Zhang Xinyue's contribution to the family during this period of time. If anyone has any opinions, please voice them."
As soon as he finished.
An elder stood up and said: "There's nothing to voice, our Huang Ling family is a family that has been around for millions of years, we shouldn't let a woman control our fate. I suggest that we directly remove her from the position of Patriarch."
"I second that!"
"I second that as well!"
"I second that!"
Several elders immediately stood up.
Zhang Xinyue was calm. This family meeting was said to be to discuss the future development of the family, but it was actually to target her, to attack her.
However …
Her position as Patriarch was recognized by the nine elders. To remove her from the position of Patriarch, the 'support' of a few elders was far from enough.
So …
She didn't say anything.
An elder from the Elder Pavilion shouted: "It is indeed the first time a woman has become the Patriarch in our Huang Ling family, but her position was recognized in the ancestral hall, and you want to remove her just because you say so?"
At this time.
Zhang Dadi stood up and said: "Sixth Elder is right, removing the Patriarch is a big deal, we can't remove her just because a few people don't agree, then does our Huang Ling family still have family rules?"
Everyone was stunned.
A few elders thought to themselves: "Isn't this Zhang Dadi Zhang Qitian's man? Why is he speaking up for Zhang Xinyue? "
Following that …
Zhang Dadi looked at Zhang Xinyue and said: "Our Patriarch has been approved by the Elder Pavilion, if you want to remove her, you have to come up with a solid excuse."
As soon as he finished.
Zhang Dadi stepped forward and said: "Zhang Xinyue, let me ask you, a month ago you promised to bring the Ancient Golden Corpse back to the Desolate Spirit Manor."
"Now let me ask you, where is the Ancient Golden Corpse?"
"Our Huang Ling family spent three generations to excavate the Ancient Golden Corpse from the ancient tomb, expending a lot of resources, manpower, and financial resources."
"Now let me ask you, where is the Ancient Golden Corpse?"
She asked aggressively.
Zhang Xinyue looked up at Zhang Dadi, then turned to Zhang Chengtian and said: "Great Pavilion Master, calling the Patriarch's name in the ancestral hall is a crime of great disrespect, how should we deal with it?"
Zhang Chengtian was stunned.
Everyone in the ancestral hall was also slightly shocked.
Zhang Xinyue then looked at Zhang Qitian and said: "Uncle Qitian, you are the one in charge of the Huang Ling family's family rules, you should know, I want to know how to deal with this crime of great disrespect?"
Zhang Qitian's eyes turned fierce as he slowly stood up and walked to Zhang Dadi's side, slapped him hard and shouted: "Hurry up and apologize to the Patriarch!"
"Pa!"
The slap was extremely loud.
Zhang Dadi's face was burning with pain, staring at Zhang Qitian's fierce eyes, his heart turned cold, and he immediately apologized to Zhang Xinyue: "Patriarch, I'm sorry."
Although it was Zhang Qitian who slapped him, he only hated Zhang Xinyue in his heart.
Zhang Qitian asked slightly: "Patriarch, although he is guilty of disrespect, he is also asking for the Huang Ling family, I also want to know, where is the Ancient Golden Corpse now?"
"You once promised that today is the deadline, if you can't take out the Ancient Golden Corpse, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain yourself today."
As soon as he finished.
The other elders immediately asked: "Where is it?"
"Where did you put the Ancient Golden Corpse?"
"Do you know how much effort it took for our Huang Ling family to get the Ancient Golden Corpse? You don't take the Huang Ling family seriously at all."
"What else can a woman do besides giving birth?"
