In the Yu Clan's meeting hall!
Yu Haoran showed no mercy and even humiliated him with contempt. Not only did it make the middle-aged man take a few steps back, but most of the outer clan elders' faces also changed.
That's right!
Although they were promoted by the Great Elder to become outer clan elders of the Yu Clan and seemed to be in a high position, in the eyes of the Yu Clan's direct descendants, they were probably no different from servants in the chores area.
If that was the case, then why should they interfere too much in the Yu Clan's affairs? Hence, their original intention of using their power and numbers to suppress Yu Haoran immediately faded.
Yu Haoran's merciless contempt and scolding made the Great Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder, and Seventh Elder's faces change slightly.
Especially the Great Elder, who was sitting on the left side of the hall, a terrifying cold light flashed in his eyes.
This was because he didn't expect that Yu Haoran, who was not even sixteen years old, would be so scheming and insightful. With just one move of contempt, Yu Haoran had broken his carefully prepared move.
As for the inner clan elders who belonged to the Ninth Elder's faction, their faces changed. Among them, the Ninth Elder couldn't help but nod his head and look at Yu Haoran with a trace of satisfaction.
However, although these outer clan elders present were all promoted by the Great Elder, no matter what, they were still helping the Yu Clan establish a foothold in Ping Yang City. Furthermore, they were all Martial Master experts and definitely couldn't disappoint them too much.
Hence, the Ninth Elder, who was good at considering the interests of the Yu Clan, reminded, "Yu Haoran, these elders have all contributed greatly to the Yu Clan and are also the foundation of our Yu Clan's foothold in Ping Yang City. Pay attention to your tone just now!"
Shrugging his shoulders, Yu Haoran replied with an indifferent attitude, "Alright!"
Then, his gaze swept across the hall and found that there wasn't a single empty seat in the hall. This caused his originally casual expression to instantly darken.
"Who arranged today's meeting?" Yu Haoran asked in a displeased tone.
"It was personally arranged by this elder. What's wrong?" The Third Elder, who was sitting below the First Elder, asked unhappily.
This was because he realized that ever since Yu Haoran entered the hall, the entire conversation was led by him.
"Oh, so it's the Third Elder!" Yu Haoran glanced at the Third Elder and said indifferently.
Yu Haoran's tone suddenly rose as he questioned, "Third Elder, I'll repeat what I said just now. Not only do I, Yu Haoran, have the blood of the Yu Clan flowing in my veins, I'm also the only son of the Clan Leader. I'm the nominal successor of the Clan. Could it be that you've never thought of arranging a seat for me?!"
"Yu Haoran, pay attention to your status. You are neither the successor of the clan nor a direct descendant of the clan. You are just a servant who cleaves materials and carries water for the clan. What qualifications do you have to sit in the meeting hall?"
The Third Elder was different from the Outer Clan Elder who didn't dare to refute Yu Haoran's rebuke and humiliation. As an Inner Clan Elder, the Third Elder directly stood up and berated and humiliated him with a murderous aura.
Facing the Third Elder's murderous humiliation, Yu Haoran couldn't help but become angry. He looked at the Third Elder with a gloomy expression and said in a mocking tone.
"That's right. I, Yu Haoran, am just a servant who cleaves materials and carries water for the clan. However, according to the rules of the Yu Clan, if you want to strip me of my status as a direct descendant and abolish my qualifications as the successor of the clan, you need at least the consent of the Clan Leader and six Inner Clan Elders."
"Third Elder, let's not talk about abolishing my status as a direct descendant and my qualifications as the successor. Without the consent of more than six Inner Clan Elders, at least the Clan Leader wouldn't pass the test!"
"This …!" Yu Haoran's rebuttal made the Third Elder speechless for a moment.
As the Clan Leader, Yu Hongzhi had already been dead for more than a year. Where could he go to ask for his consent? Could it be that he had to slit his own throat and go to the underworld to find him?
"Third Elder, you sit down first!"
Seeing that Yu Haoran had used only one move to completely defeat the Third Elder, the Vanguard, the First Elder, who was afraid that he would continue to make a fool of himself, indicated for the Third Elder to sit down first.
However, at this moment, he looked at Yu Haoran with eyes full of fear and vigilance.
"Yu Haoran, you also know the special situation of the clan right now. Wanting to obtain the Clan Leader's consent is simply impossible. Therefore, we can only do special things."
It wasn't that the First Elder didn't want to arrange for his son, Yu Hongyang, to sit in the Clan Leader's position. However, Yu Hongyang's prestige was too low and his strength was too weak.
If he forcibly sat in the Clan Leader's position, not only would it incur the dissatisfaction of the clansmen, it would also cause him to lack confidence when facing the upper echelons of the Cheng and Wu Clans. In the end, it would cause the Yu Clan to suffer losses.
Therefore, the First Elder had always left the Clan Leader's position empty. He wanted to wait for Yu Hongyang's aptitude and cultivation to increase before thinking of a way to arrange for him to sit in the Clan Leader's position.
Now it seemed that the plan that had been formulated previously would have to be brought forward.
However, before the plan could be carried out, it still needed to get rid of the biggest hidden danger in the plan, which was Yu Haoran, who had exceeded his expectations.
"Oh! Just as the First Elder said, because a few treacherous villains in the clan secretly colluded with the enemy, it caused my father's accidental death. Therefore, it is impossible to ask for his opinion. "
Yu Haoran knew that the First Elder would definitely skip the Clan Leader's position, so he wasn't surprised in the slightest.
However, when he thought about how the First Elder and Yu Hongyang's memories were forbidden from being concealed, he became more and more suspicious that his father's death was definitely related to them.
Since they had already shed all pretenses of cordiality and wished for the other party to die immediately, Yu Haoran didn't show any mercy and insinuated the treacherous intentions of a few people.
"Yu Haoran, what do you mean by what you said just now?" After hearing Yu Haoran's insinuations, the hot-tempered Third Elder couldn't control the anger in his heart. Perhaps it was because he had a guilty conscience, so he stood up again and questioned him.
"Ah …!!" Yu Haoran looked at the Third Elder with a more surprised and strange look.
"Third Elder, sit down!" The First Elder angrily rebuked.
In fact, in the secret battle a year ago, the death of Yu Hongzhi and his wife, and the heavy losses of the Clan Leader's side had already caused some people in the clan to suspect that this matter had something to do with him, so he had been trying to eliminate this influence.
The Third Elder's irritable accusation just now showed that he had a guilty conscience. Didn't it prove that the matter of that year had something to do with him?
With the Third Elder's outburst and Yu Haoran's strange drawn-out voice, the Ninth Elder and the others looked at the Third Elder with a somewhat strange expression.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Third Elder was very strong and loyal to him, the First Elder would have already removed him from his position as an Elder and secretly gotten rid of him.
