The moment the Su Family's Old Ancestor appeared, the atmosphere immediately changed.
Su Mingqi cursed in his heart.
As the saying goes, the first drumbeat of spirits, the second will weaken, and the third will be exhausted. Now that the Su Clan's Old Ancestor had appeared, the courage of these collateral bloodlines had diminished a little. If they were to let him say anything else, this momentum would probably be lost.
Su Mingqi stood up and said in a low voice, "Ancestor, we're here to get back what we deserve for our collateral bloodline!"
Ancestor Su looked at Su Mingqi and the other collateral bloodlines and said coldly, "What you deserve? Everything you have belongs to the Su Family. What do you deserve?
For so many years, did our Su Family not feed you or drink you? You have the cultivation techniques you should have, and the cultivation resources will be distributed to you on time. What else do you want!?
Greed is the greatest sin. Su Mingqi, I've watched you grow up. Back then, you embezzled the clan's elixirs, but my Su Clan didn't punish you because you were young and immature at that time.
But I didn't expect you to be so greedy and want even more things. Does it mean that the position of Su Family's Patriarch will also be given to you? "
The words of the Su Family's Patriarch shocked all the collateral disciples present. The Patriarch spoke in such a tone. It was obvious that the Patriarch was really angry this time.
If it was in the past, Su Mingqi would be afraid of Ancestor Su and wouldn't dare to bargain with him.
But now, Su Mingqi had made up his mind to shed all pretense of cordiality with the Su Clan. Since that was the case, what was there to be afraid of?
Su Mingqi looked at Ancestor Su and said, "Clan Head? Why can't I? Why can't I be the Clan Head? "
Everyone looked at Su Mingqi in shock. What was he saying? A collateral bloodline disciple wanted to be the Clan Head? Was he crazy?
Su Mingqi didn't care about other people's gazes. He looked at Old Ancestor Su and said: "Su Family owes us collateral bloodlines too much. You keep saying that we collateral bloodlines have everything. That's right, we do have everything. But what if we are compared to the direct bloodlines?
Those of the direct bloodline can choose their own cultivation techniques, and their elders can refer to them to ensure that they can learn the most suitable cultivation technique for themselves. But what can we of the collateral bloodline get? We don't even have the right to choose cultivation techniques! "
This secret was only known to the Su Clan. Now that Su Mingqi had openly revealed it, the Su Clan's guests were shocked. This direct descendant of the Su Clan had indeed crossed the line.
They were also martial artists, so they naturally knew how important a suitable cultivation technique was to a martial artist. In the end, the direct bloodline of the Su family didn't even give the branch family disciples the chance to choose a cultivation technique. It was easy to imagine what kind of evil intentions they had.
The Su Clan's direct bloodline disciples could kill 80% of the collateral bloodline disciples' battle power and potential. But at the same time, they were also killing the entire Su Clan's battle power and potential. the collateral bloodline disciples' strength represented the Su Clan 'strength.
The Su Clan's direct bloodline disciples didn't hesitate to do this to the collateral bloodline disciples for their own benefit. It even affected the entire Su Clan's benefit. Everyone present didn't know whether to call the Su Clan's direct bloodline disciples smart or stupid.
At this time, Su Mingqi continued coldly: "And resources. We collateral bloodline disciples are also part of the Su Clan. Even those elixirs and weapons are made by us. Why is it that our monthly cultivation resources are less than a tenth of the direct bloodline disciples'?
We're all disciples of the Su Clan. Why do we have to be servants for life just because we're collateral bloodline disciples? Why do we have to be inferior to others?
Just now, Ancestor asked me if I wanted the Patriarch position. Let me tell you now. Even if I were to be the Patriarch, I'd be a hundred times better than this useless Su Mingli! "
"Su Mingqi! You're courting death! "
Su Mingli's eyes were filled with anger. Is this Su Mingqi crazy today? Why is he like a mad dog, biting whoever he sees?
Su Mingqi sneered: "You're still not convinced? Back then, Su Xin could have joined our Su Clan. In the end, he was forced away because of your short-sightedness.
Last time, our Su Clan attracted the joint attack of all the sects in the Northern Plains Path. Although the main culprit was Su Mingyuan, you added fuel to the fire in the dark.
A short-sighted mediocre person like you has brought so much trouble to our Su Clan. What right do you have to steal the Patriarch position? "
"Enough!"
Su Clan's Ancestor roared and interrupted Su Mingqi.
Su Clan's Ancestor looked coldly at Su Mingqi: "What exactly do you want?"
Su Mingqi's expression didn't change: "I've said it before. I only want to fight for the collateral bloodline disciples' benefits. We don't have to submit to a mediocre person like Su Mingli and watch him bring our Su Clan to a dead end!"
Su Clan's Ancestor said indifferently: "I appointed Su Mingli as the Patriarch. Even if he's mediocre, he's still the Su Clan's Patriarch. It's not up to others to point fingers at him!
As for the benefits you want, if I don't give it to you, what else do you want? "
A series of clanging sounds of swords being unsheathed resounded. All the collateral bloodline disciples of the Su Clan drew out their weapons.
It was true that they feared Su Clan's Ancestor. But Su Mingqi's words just now struck deep into their bones. Those who weren't collateral bloodline disciples of the Su Clan wouldn't be able to understand the grievances in their hearts.
Even a clay figurine had a temper. Since they had decided to shed all pretenses of cordiality, then even if both sides suffered heavy losses, they would still make a move!
Su Mingqi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "Someone once told me that martial artists still have to rely on their strength to speak. Since you won't give it to me, then we'll snatch it from you!"
The Su Clan's hanger-ons sucked in a breath of cold air. He's serious!
With Su Mingqi's words, it could be said that Su Clan's collateral bloodline and direct descendants had shed all pretenses of cordiality. Today, blood would flow like a river on Wutong Mountain!
At the same time, an unremarkable Xiantian martial artist mixed in the crowd of hanger-ons took out a jade pendant. He bit his finger and wrote a string of small words on it. Then, he infused his inner qi into it until the words disappeared.
This kind of treasure that could transmit messages with an array was definitely not something a rogue cultivator could possess. Then, one could imagine the background of this hanger-on.
When Su Clan recruited hanger-ons, they didn't need to investigate their background and temperament. As long as they had sufficient strength, it was fine. One could imagine who these hanger-ons were.
If Su Xin could easily plant a spy in the Su Family, then other forces would naturally be able to do the same.
At this moment, Northern Plains' Dugu Clan. Dugu Clan's Patriarch, Dugu Yan, held the jade pendant in his hand. When he saw the message, his eyes lit up.
He immediately stood up and ordered, "Gather all the elders for a discussion!"
Among the six great clans' Patriarchs, Dugu Yan wasn't the most outstanding. He could even be considered mediocre. However, he had been in the position of Patriarch for a long time. He still had the ability to grasp opportunities.
Su Clan was in such a huge mess. If he didn't take the opportunity to take a bite out of it, then he wouldn't be qualified to be the Patriarch.
Moreover, their Dugu Clan had suffered quite a bit of damage in Wutong Mountain. This time, they had to make up for it.
But at this moment, Xiao Chuo, who was beside him, said indifferently, "Dugu Yan, I advise you not to get involved in this mess."
Dugu Yan turned around and frowned, "Xiao Chuo, what do you mean?"
Ever since Dugu Yan's illegitimate son was killed by Su Xin's men under Su Clan's scheme, the husband and wife had been in harmony on the surface.
Although they were more or less like this in the past, they didn't shed all pretenses of cordiality. But now, they were like strangers. They even called each other's names. It was only to maintain the face of the husband and wife in front of outsiders.
The reason was very simple. It was because Dugu Yan thought that if Xiao Chuo wasn't so overbearing, he could have kept the Huang Clan by his side. That way, his son wouldn't have been killed by the Su Clan. All of this was caused by this woman being too overbearing.
And Xiao Chuo's personality was incomparably strong. If you, Dugu Yan, hate and hate, then hate. I won't purposely curry favor with you. Anyway, I don't matter to you now. But you, Dugu Yan, can't leave me.
Now that he heard Xiao Chuo say such a thing, Dugu Yan was slightly dissatisfied. He thought that Xiao Chuo was controlling him too much.
Although he knew that Xiao Chuo's scheming, scheming, and vision were not inferior to him, and even stronger than him, the problem was that he was the Dugu Clan's Patriarch. He was Xiao Chuo's husband. When did it become Xiao Chuo's turn to control him?
Xiao Chuo's pure white hand twirled the flower petals that she had gotten from somewhere. She said indifferently, "Do you think the Su Clan's change is so simple?
Those collateral disciples have been bullied for so many years. Last time, they only dared to make a move because they had the right time, place, and people. In the end, they were dissuaded by the Su Clan's Patriarch with just one sentence.
At that time, they didn't completely fall out with the Su Clan's direct descendants. Now, who gave them the courage to stand out and provoke the Su Clan's Patriarch? They even look like they would rather die in glory than live in dishonor. Don't you feel that there's something fishy about this? "
Dugu Yan frowned and said, "You're saying that someone is adding fuel to the fire. Who could it be?"
Xiao Chuo said lazily, "The imperial court has just destroyed Qingcheng sword school. It's not very good for them to directly interfere with the Su Clan's affairs. Now, in the surroundings of Shengjing City, who else would have the ability and motive to interfere with the Su Clan's internal affairs other than Su Xin?
Don't forget that he is a collateral descendant of the Su Clan. He has such a great enmity with the Su Clan's direct descendants. It's very normal for Su Xin to sow discord in this matter. He might even be personally involved.
This is a pool of muddy water. Su Xin has everything planned out. It won't be easy for the Dugu Clan to interfere midway and bite a piece of meat out of Su Xin's mouth. So, I advise you not to waste your time and stop. "
