The storm was hidden under the calm sea, but in reality, it was already surging. However, no matter if it was Yue Henian or the Yue Clan's first branch, they were all hiding in the main house and did not notice anything.
Before the sky turned dark, inside the Yue Clan's main house, Yue Henian, some important figures of the Yue Clan's ninth branch, some outstanding warriors from the side branches, and some important henchmen and stewards gathered for a banquet.
This was the Yue Clan's tradition. Normally, everyone would eat their own food, but every ten days, everyone would gather in the main house for a banquet. One reason was to increase the cohesion of the Yue Clan, and the other was to discuss some matters that needed to be handled in the Yue Clan when everyone was gathered together.
The second reason was quite useful for the Yue Clan. Everyone was used to discussing matters while eating.
As for the first point, even if everyone gathered to eat together, the atmosphere wasn't harmonious. All kinds of hidden conflicts and fights often appeared on the dining table.
This time, three people were missing from the banquet. One of them was killed while chasing after Chu Xiu, and the other two were killed by the Blue Dragon Society's assassins. Of course, they did not know that these three people were actually killed by the same person.
Because of the pressure from the outside world, this banquet was not as lively as usual. Everyone was very depressed, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it seemed like water could drip out.
Yue Henian drank two mouthfuls of wine. He felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he turned to the eldest brother Yue Donglin and said, "Everyone, say a few words. Don't just stand there. Eldest brother, you go first."
Yue Donglin stood up, raised his cup and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, don't worry. It's just an assassin from the Blue Dragon Society, it won't be enough to hurt our Yue Clan. After this period of time, when the Divine Martial Sect sends people over, our Yue Clan will definitely be able to overcome this crisis and use the power of the Divine Martial Sect to reach a higher level! "
After he finished speaking, there were very few people present who agreed with him. Only the people of the first branch and the other branches that had never had a martial artist of the Inner Gang Realm raised their glasses in agreement because they were weak and did not dare to disrespect the first branch.
As for the people on Yue Dongxing's side, they didn't even move.
Yue Henian frowned and said to Yue Dongxing: "Third Brother, don't just stand there, tell me."
Yue Dongxing stood up and said in a deep voice, "Big Brother, you make it sound so easy. Our Yue Clan's direct descendants and collateral descendants have lost dozens of people, two Inner Aura Realm warriors have died, and hundreds of servants have escaped. If this isn't considered a serious injury, then what is?"
Yue Donglin frowned. His third brother always liked to go against him and never gave him any face.
Hearing this, Yue Donglin also snorted coldly and said: "This is just a small matter. When the Divine Martial Sect sends people over, our Yue Clan will be connected by marriage with the Divine Martial Sect. At that time, with the Divine Martial Sect's strength and resources, it will be easy to cultivate more disciples!"
Yue Dongxing said faintly: "Big Brother, what you said is really easy. Disciples can be cultivated again, but what about the dead people? Can the Fourth Prince, Fifth Brother, and the direct descendants and collateral descendants who died come back to life?
There is still a month before the Divine Martial Sect will send people over. What about the people who died in this period of time?
Yue Donglin, the people who died were not from the first branch, so you don't feel sorry for them? "
Yue Dongxing's last sentence actually called Yue Donglin by his name. In the Yue Clan, which had strict family rules, this was already a violation of the rules and a big taboo.
Yue Donglin pointed at Yue Dongxing, so angry that he couldn't say anything.
Yue Henian suddenly slammed the table and shouted: "Third Brother! What the hell are you talking about? Inviting the people from the Divine Martial Sect was my decision. Are you dissatisfied with me? Quickly apologize to your big brother! "
With Yue Henian's position in the Yue Clan, no one dared to go against him when he was angry in the past. However, Yue Dongxing revealed a cold smile: "Apologize? Why should I apologize? Because of a person's stupid decision, he brought the Yue Clan into danger. Do I need to apologize to this kind of person? "
Yue Dongxing looked straight at Yue Henian and said in a deep voice: "Father, you are old and have changed. You don't have the drive you used to have. Do you still remember the Yue Clan's teachings?
In order to build a clan, we must be cautious. When a horse steps into the martial world, we must take the lead!
I have done the first two things. No matter if it is Beiling Manor or Linzhong County, who has ever said anything bad about my Third Brother?
But what about the First Branch? They used their Yue Clan's identity to run amok outside. It was because Yue Luchuan listened to Nie Dong Liu's persuasion and sent his seventh brother to kill Chu Xiu. In the end, his seventh brother was killed!
It was because of the First Branch and Yue Luchuan's greed. Not only did they cancel the marriage, they also wanted to exterminate the Mu Clan. Not only did they exterminate the Mu Clan, they did not even kill everyone. That's why today's disaster happened!
Father, you had to stay at the Beiling Mansion and couldn't go out. It was me who followed Second Brother and led the team. I took the lead and fought against the bandits and bandits all the way to the Western Chu Chuan Shu Kingdom to trade. I had to lower my voice to the local forces of the martial arts world, kowtowing and kneeling to them. Second Brother even died in an accident in Western Chu. That was how the Yue Clan became rich!
Look at the First Branch. Big brother used the excuse of helping you stabilize the situation in Beiling Manor to stay in the Yue Clan. But what did he stabilize? He was just afraid of death! "
When these words came out, Yue Henian and Yue Donglin's expressions changed. Other than those who stood on Yue Dongxing's side and knew the inside story, everyone else was shocked. They did not know what had happened to Yue Dongxing that he dared to say such things in public.
However, what Yue Dongxing said made sense. Among the nine branches of the Yue Clan, the Third Branch was indeed more powerful than the First Branch. This was all earned by Yue Dongxing himself.
Yue Donglin was so angry that his face turned pale. He pointed at Yue Dongxing and shouted, "Third Brother! What do you mean by doing this in front of father? Are you trying to rebel? "
Yue Henian also looked at Yue Dongxing coldly. He did not expect that his son would have so many complaints and dissatisfaction towards him. He even dared to say it in public.
However, one should not wash one's dirty linen in public. There were still the Yue Clan's henchmen and stewards present. Hence, Yue Henian only said coldly, "Third Brother, you drank too much. Go and rest."
Yue Dongxing threw the wine cup in his hand aside and laughed coldly, "Father, I didn't drink too much. Didn't you ask me what I meant? Then I will tell you! "
Yue Dongxing stood up and kicked the chair behind him. He looked at Yue Henian and said in a deep voice, "Father, you are already old and not suitable to manage the Yue Clan. Please step aside and let us manage the Yue Clan. Also, hand over the First Branch to the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society. Let the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society kill them. This way, the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society will complete their mission and the rest of the Yue Clan will be safe. They are the main culprits in this matter! "
When he said this, the whole Yue Clan was boiling. The Third Brother of the Yue Clan actually wanted to force the Yue Clan to abdicate!
However, everyone was puzzled. Where did he get his confidence from?
If Yue Henian died, it would be fine. However, Yue Henian was still alive. With his physical invulnerability, he could completely suppress the whole Yue Clan.
Yue Henian directly smashed the table and shouted angrily, "Unfilial son! Do you know what you are saying? If I don't cripple you this time, where are the rules of the Yue Clan? "
Yue Dongxing sneered, "Cripple me? Father, you should first see if you can release your Qi. There are hundreds of ways to concoct the [Three Worms Three Flower Powder]. My concoction is not considered a poison, but it can suppress a warrior's Qi. However, Father, don't worry. I will not do such a disgraceful thing like killing my own father. After the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society kill the First Branch, you will still be the Elder of the Yue Clan. However, for now, please go to your own room and rest for a while. "
When he said this, Yue Henian's expression suddenly changed. He had just started to circulate his Qi when he felt a sharp pain in his Dantian. A force was pulling his Qi, causing him to have to use all his strength to suppress it. He could not release his Qi at all!
Only now did he remember that at the table, he was the one who spoke first and drank two mouthfuls of wine. The others did not have the time to drink, and the people on Yue Dongxing's side did not even move.
The loyal old butler of the Yue Clan immediately stood in front of Yue Henian to protect him. Yue Dongxing immediately shouted, "Do it!"
When he said this, the warriors on his side immediately took out their weapons. Someone even took out a whistling arrow and shot it towards the sky.
Outside the main residence, the warriors on Yue Dongxing's side heard the whistling arrow and immediately started to kill the Yue Clan's warriors who did not belong to their side. The Yue Clan's wall was broken. In an instant, the Yue Clan had already become a river of blood. The number of people who died was even more than the number of people killed by Chu Xiu!
