Lu Tao was half forced to take the oath, so he was naturally unhappy. He looked at Lu Tianqi and sneered, "Substitute Family Head, I have taken the oath. What about you?"
"Family Head, no!"
"Family Head, you don't need to take the oath!"
"The Lu Family is on our side. Why should we take the oath to them?"
Before Lu Tianqi could speak, the people behind her became anxious. What if the four Patriarchs on Lu Tao's side all stood on one side and passed the dismissal of Lu Tianqi as the Family Head? Then there would be no way to end this matter.
Lu Tianqi was young and impulsive. They had to remind Lu Tianqi. Otherwise, once she took the oath, she would fall into Lu Tao's trap.
Lu Tianyue also frowned slightly. She didn't know what her younger sister was relying on. The situation was clear. There were four people on Lu Tao's side and only three on Lu Tianqi's side. The Family Head could appoint a new Patriarch, but it had to be voted by the Elders' Conference.
The current situation was clearly a dead end!
Lu Tianyue looked at Lu Tianqi with some worry. But Lu Tianqi didn't show any emotion on her face. She just stood there quietly, looking at Lu Tao's group and then at Chu Mo. She smiled sweetly, "I'm so sorry, Brother Tianming. I've made a fool of myself in front of you."
"We're family. Don't be so distant." Chu Mo looked at Lu Tianqi and said in a low voice, "Are you sure? If not, I'll kill them all! "
Lu Tao's group suddenly became angry. They all glared at Chu Mo and scolded him.
"How dare you! You're too presumptuous! This is the Lu Family and it's an internal matter. How dare you, an outsider, talk nonsense here? Aren't you afraid of losing your tongue? "A branch elder standing next to Lu Tao shouted at Chu Mo angrily.
"Boy, you'd better be careful. Kill us all? Do you think you're so powerful? Don't think you're powerful after a few days of cultivation. You'll be crying later! "Another branch elder mocked with a sneer.
"Heh, he really doesn't know the difference between life and death. There's no need to pay attention to such a small character. Let's take him down and interrogate him properly. Let's see where this spy came from. "The third side branch elder sneered and looked at Chu Mo with disdain.
At this moment, Lu Tao was completely relieved. The three branch elders were indeed all on his side. Being able to become the most powerful elder in the Lu Family, Lu Tao did not get the title for nothing. He was quite shrewd and shrewd.
When Lu Tianqi heard Chu Mo's words, she smiled and said, "It's alright, Brother Tianming, little sister will drink with you later! Let's catch up. "
Chu Mo could sense Lu Tianqi's confidence. At the same time, he used his Aura Divination Technique to look at Lu Tianqi's Fate. He discovered that this former tomboy's luck was extremely strong, even to the extent of exuberance.
Chu Mo was slightly stunned and puzzled. Because looking at the current situation, it was clearly a dead end. This was an internal matter of the Lu Family. Outsiders could not interfere at all. Just like what Chu Mo said just now, it was simply unrealistic to kill them all. Could it be that Lu Tianqi still had a backup plan?
Chu Mo frowned and suddenly thought of Lu Zheng. Although they did not have much contact, Chu Mo could still feel that Lu Zheng was an extremely intelligent and shrewd person. Logically speaking, Lu Zheng would not be unaware of the changes that would happen to the Lu Family after his death.
Then … If he did not have any backup plan, letting Lu Tianqi succeed the Patriarch's position was equivalent to pushing Lu Tianqi into a pit of fire.
Would he push his daughter into a pit of fire?
Obviously not!
Chu Mo more or less understood when he thought of this. Before Lu Zheng died … he must have already thought of today's situation. Therefore, he must have left a way for Lu Tianqi to balance the Lu Family!
After understanding all this, Chu Mo relaxed. He smiled and looked at Lu Tianqi, "Alright …"
Coldly, Lu Tao interrupted Chu Mo and looked at Lu Tianqi with a mocking expression. He said impatiently, "Alright, Substitute Patriarch, don't waste time here. It's useless! Quickly swear! "
Lu Tianqi nodded, "Of course I have to swear!" As he spoke, he ignored the anxious expressions of the group of people behind him and said indifferently, "I, Lu Tianqi, the temporary Patriarch of the Silken City's Lu Family, accept the impeachment vote of the Lu Family's Elder Council today. I admit all the consequences of the vote. If I go against it, may the heavens and the earth destroy me!"
After he finished speaking, Lu Tianqi smiled and looked at Lu Tao, "Is that all right?"
Lu Tao heaved a long sigh of relief and revealed a hideous smile on his face. He nodded, "Of course!"
At this moment, Lu Tao could even see the scene of Lu Tianqi and Lu Tianyue leaving the Lu Family dejectedly. He would not kill the pair of sisters and would even leave them a rich estate!
Because behind Lu Tianyue, there was a colossus like Ling Dong Mountain. Although he also had the Blood Demon Church behind him, their relationship was not as close as Lu Tianyue and Ling Dong Mountain. Besides, for the sake of reputation, he could not kill the pair of sisters.
But … from today onwards, the Lu Family belongs to me, Lu Tao!
This is a day worth remembering. This is the day I, Lu Tao, ascend to the throne of the Lu Family's Patriarch, and also the day I, Lu Tao … step into the Silken City's Hall of Fame!
As for his son, Lu Tianqiang … Lu Tao had temporarily forgotten him at the back of his mind. He had more than one son, Lu Tianqiang.
"Lu Family's Elder Council, the impeachment vote against Substitute Patriarch Lu Tianqi will now begin!" Lu Tao glanced at the surroundings and said complacently in a loud voice, "I agree to deprive Lu Tianqi of the identity of Substitute Patriarch because she doesn't have the ability to bring the Lu Family to a more prosperous path!"
As Lu Tao spoke, he raised his arm high. After that, he smiled and looked at the slightly thin and weak Lu Tianqi with a victorious gaze. However, he was slightly stunned.
Because Lu Tao suddenly noticed that Lu Tianqi had actually put on makeup today!
Since she changed back into female clothes, Lu Tianqi still refused to put on makeup. Especially during this period of mourning for her father, Lu Tianqi had always been bare-faced. But today, she'd actually put on a little bit of light makeup!
If one didn't look carefully, one would even be unable to notice that she'd put on makeup.
This was simply an unbelievable thing to people that were familiar with Lu Tianqi's character.
If one looked carefully, Lu Tianqi who'd put on a little bit of light makeup was actually very beautiful. Her beauty wasn't much inferior to her older sister, Lu Tianyue.
But … So what about it?
Lu Tao sneered in his heart. Could it be that you think you'll be able to turn the situation around by showing off your beauty?
The three elders by Lu Tianqi's side spoke in unison. "We object! Young Miss Tianqi absolutely has the ability to lead the Lu Family to an even more prosperous path! "
"What's the point of all of you objecting? It's unnecessary … "Lu Tao sneered as he spoke. Suddenly, he heard a wave of exclamations of shock that couldn't be restrained from coming from the surrounding crowd.
The smile on Lu Tao's face grew wider, and he looked at Lu Tianqi with a mocking expression. "Second Young Miss … It's time for you to step down!"
"Oh? Is that so? Elder Lu Tao, please turn around and look! "
