The clansman sitting on the purplish-red chair suddenly opened his eyes.
There seemed to be a glint in his eyes, but there was even more of a majestic aura that made people's hearts palpitate.
Almost instantly, the elder standing in the hall lowered his head without saying a word.
Although he was also a direct descendant of the clan, in terms of seniority, he was the Patriarch's uncle.
"You just came to the clan from the Life Healer."
"You have been talking about her many bad points. What do you mean by that?"
"Patriarch! Think about it carefully. Is it because our family hasn't had peace ever since she came? "
The elder raised his head and said with bright eyes, "Not to mention that the clan is not at peace, she has never complied with the clan's arrangements."
"Then what do you mean?
Kill her?
!”
The Patriarch of the Tulip Family had a somewhat indifferent expression.
"Do you think that we should execute her? Do you mean that if we kill her, the clan will be able to return to peace?
Do you think that if we kill her, the dead will come back to life? "
The elder immediately lowered his head and heard the Patriarch speak.
"You think that she is a disaster because you wanted her to marry your son, but she did not agree."
"Patriarch, I did not!"
"You did not?"
The Patriarch frowned and looked deeply at the elder. He sighed, "Third Uncle, do you think that now that you have eyes and ears in the clan, even I, the Patriarch, have become blind?"
Thump … The elder standing in the hall knelt on the ground with weak legs.
The Patriarch of the Tulip Family's eyes were full of indifference. He looked at the elder kneeling on the ground without any pity.
In private, they were uncle and nephew.
In public, they were the subjects of the clan.
In the past few decades, he had been in closed-door training. During that time, his Third Uncle had almost grasped the power of the clan.
Perhaps it was that short few decades … that made him feel that if he wanted to, he only needed to wave his arm, and the position of clan leader would fall into the palm of his hand.
Little did he know.
To be able to become the Patriarch of the clan.
Furthermore, for thousands of years, no one in the clan dared to have disloyalty.
He did not rely on the inheritance of the previous generation, but his own methods.
This was the case for the clan leader before him.
He had inherited the position after skipping a generation. Countless elders of the family were eyeing him covetously, but he was still able to sit firmly in this position, relying on his wisdom.
The moment he ended his seclusion.
No matter what the elders did in private, the family would return to his hands. Moreover, those who came in contact with the elders would become the spies he sent to the elders.
Life Healer Family.
Utter nonsense! Any Life Healer was the most precious treasure in the universe.
Countless families wanted to have a Life Healer.
Someone actually called it a calamity.
What a joke.
If it really was a Calamity, then it wasn't a Life Healer, nor was it a Life Healer.
Tracing back to the source, this calamity originated from their family.
They had made a wrong decision! The Milky Way! Was he really that easy to touch?
How could a small family like them get involved in the territory of the Milky Way Master?
If it was so easy, such a good thing wouldn't have fallen into their hands.
The Patriarch of the Tulip Family finally understood.
They had been used.
If he could go back in time, he would definitely not have listened to the elders, believing that the Milky Way was an opportunity for them to develop quickly.
He should have abided by the strategy he had set when he took office.
No matter what happened, he should have carried it out to the end.
He should have believed that his strategy was truly suitable for the family.
That way, they would not have fallen to this state.
Countless family members had disappeared and died.
He had no way of returning 70 million slaves to the slave merchants. The only solution was to buy all of them.
The family's savings over tens of thousands of years.
They might have been used up by these slaves.
Unfortunately … there was no medicine for regret in this world.
Even the Time Elemental Spirits could not completely change time. Now, the Tulip Family could only brace themselves and continue forward. Even if they knew that everything was wrong, they had no way out.
The Life Healer was their family's only gain.
Kill her?
! How could he bear to do that! Looking at the trembling elder kneeling on the ground, the Patriarch of the Tulip Family walked down from his seat and stood in front of the elder. He looked down at the elder condescendingly.
"Don't mention the Life Healer anymore."
"All these years, you've worked hard for the family. I can forget about everything you did while I was in seclusion. Of course, you should know what you need to do."
"Patriarch?
!”
The elder's eyes were filled with fear.
He already knew what the patriarch was going to decide.
"You've worked too hard. In the future, just enjoy your remaining years in the family. In the future, I will find someone else to take your place."
The patriarch patted the elder's shoulder. "Alright, you can leave now."
"Patriarch!"
No matter how miserable the elder's voice was, the patriarch didn't even look at him. He returned to his seat.
"Men!"
"Bring the family's former elder away. Also, invite the Life Healer Madam Su Yan here for a discussion."
Several members of the family extended their hands to support the elder as he left.
A few minutes later … Su Yan slowly appeared at the entrance of the hall, followed by several attendants.
"Patriarch."
"Madam Su Yan."
The patriarch smiled. "How have you been in the Tulip Family?"
"I've been fine."
Su Yan nodded. Her expression didn't change much.
In the end, she'd still made it here.
Su Yiyun hadn't been able to hold off the Tulip Family's army for long. Before long, they'd been chased out of a spatial rift. For the sake of the humans in the base, Su Yan had agreed to follow them to the Tulip Family in exchange for letting the East Imperial Emperor and the others leave.
At the time, Hei Yu had even hypocritically said … that he could allow Su Yan's clansmen to join the Tulip Family.
Su Yan knew very well that if she'd really believed him, the Milky Way Galaxy would never be able to rise again.
Even if Ye Zichen and Su Yiyun, two of the Milky Way's strongest experts, were still outside, so long as the Tulip Family controlled their clansmen, then when Ye Zichen and Su Yiyun arrived, the Tulip Family could threaten them with Earth's humans. No matter how strong they were, it would be useless.
She'd decided to do it herself …. At the very least, compared to the humans of the Milky Way, she wasn't important.
Even though she wasn't happy living here.
"You've been here for too long," the patriarch smiled.
"After staying here for a while, I'm sure Madam Su Yan will come to like our life star."
"Maybe."
Su Yan didn't take it to heart.
"Why did you summon me here? If there's nothing else, I'd like to return to my residence and read."
"I just removed the Great Elder from his position."
"Is that so?"
"I know the Great Elder's relationship with Healer Su isn't very good. When he first arrived, he privately sought you out and wanted you to marry his son," the patriarch squinted his eyes.
The Patriarch narrowed his eyes. "I will never tolerate such a thing happening. Because of this, I removed him from his position."
"Thank you for your concern, Patriarch, but this has nothing to do with me."
"How could it not?"
The patriarch smiled, then reached out his hand towards Su Yan. "I want to invite you …. to become the Great Elder of the Tulip Family, and lead the clan elders."
