"Well said! We're family, there's no need to be so polite! " Xuanyuan Guao wiped away his tears. He looked at Xiao Chen with joy and love in his eyes, as if he was looking at his own grandson.
Xuanyuan Guao had no children, so Xuanyuan Feihong and Xuanyuan Boyu were like his sons. Now that one of his sons had died, he had gained a grandson. He felt a sense of comfort in his heart.
Xuanyuan Feiyu raised his head and looked at Xiao Chen with a complicated gaze. He secretly swore to himself that he would work hard in his cultivation. Xiao Chen, an outsider, could support the Xuanyuan Family, but he could not. Thus, he felt very upset.
The members of the Xuanyuan Family knew that Xiao Chen was highly regarded by Xuanyuan Boyu and Xuanyuan Guao, so they all respectfully said to Xiao Chen, "We welcome Young Master Xiao Chen's kindness to the Xuanyuan Family."
"Uh …" Faced with so many passionate gazes from the Xuanyuan Family, Xiao Chen felt a little embarrassed. However, he still said sincerely, "Seniors and brothers, there's no need to be so courteous.
The enemies of the Xuanyuan Family are also enemies of me, Xiao Chen. I will definitely stand together with the Xuanyuan Family against a common enemy. As long as you don't look down on Xiao Chen, then Xiao Chen is more than willing to live and die with the Xuanyuan Family! "
"Look down on you? Little Brother Xiao, what are you saying? As long as you don't look down on the Xuanyuan Family, it's fine. The Xuanyuan Family's doors are always open for you. "Because of Xiao Chen's attitude, Xuanyuan Boyu felt a little better.
…
The next day, the Xuanyuan Family held a not too grand funeral. They buried Xuanyuan Feihong in a mountain in the east of Xuanyuan City.
This mountain was called the Immortal Burial Mountain. It was the burial ground of the Xuanyuan Family. All the ancestors of the Xuanyuan Family were buried there. As the leader of the family, Xuanyuan Feihong naturally had to be buried there.
Originally, the burial of Xuanyuan Feihong required a grand ceremony, but this was a special time. The Xuanyuan Family was in a very dangerous situation, so Xuanyuan Boyu, as the current leader of the Xuanyuan Family, decided to do it simply.
The dead were gone, but the living had to continue living and fighting. After burying Xuanyuan Feihong, the upper echelons of the Xuanyuan Family held a secret meeting in a relatively large secret room to discuss the future of the Xuanyuan Family.
There were fewer people in the meeting. They were Xuanyuan Boyu, Xuanyuan Guao, Xuanyuan Feiyu, Xuanyuan Bonin, Xuanyuan Yuxin, Xiao Chen, Yellow Dog, Duanmu Dihua, and the two remaining elders.
The Seventh Elder, Xuanyuan Tianxiong, and the Eighth Elder, Xuanyuan Tianxu, were brothers. They belonged to the branch families of the Xuanyuan Family.
Half a day ago, Xuanyuan Bonin and Duanmu Dihua had safely returned to the Xuanyuan Family. This allowed Xiao Chen and Xuanyuan Boyu to breathe a sigh of relief.
As Xiao Chen's sworn brother, Duanmu Dihua was naturally allowed to participate in the meetings of the upper echelons of the Xuanyuan Family. This was a sign of the Xuanyuan Family's respect for Xiao Chen.
According to seniority, Xuanyuan Guao could have inherited the position of clan leader. However, with his personality, he would rather die than become the clan leader.
Xuanyuan Boyu could not do anything about Xuanyuan Guao, so he could only temporarily leave the position of clan leader vacant. Naturally, he became the new clan leader of the Xuanyuan Family. A family, especially an aristocratic family, needed a leader. Otherwise, there would be no cohesiveness.
After experiencing the tragedy of the family, Xuanyuan Boyu had matured a lot. He now had a dignified air about him. He gave his first speech as the new clan leader.
"Everyone! You are the only remaining upper echelons of the Xuanyuan Family. This is a very sad thing, but it is also something we must face bravely. In the future, the Xuanyuan Family will rely on us. If we fail, the Xuanyuan Family will not be far from extinction. "
"I'm not trying to scare you. Everyone here is smart, so I won't say too much. Now, let's discuss the future of the Xuanyuan Family. Everyone can speak freely. There's no need to hold back. "
"Ahem, I'll say a few words first." Xuanyuan Guao, who was not very talkative, was the first to speak.
"The Xuanyuan Family is now the enemy of the entire world. Now that the Xuanyuan Family is weak, I'm the most useless Heaven God left. We've sent out many scouts to search for my cousin, Xuanyuan Hongyun, but there has been no news."
"Of course, I'm not saying that my cousin is definitely dead. He might still be alive, but we can't find him for the time being. After all, we need to see his corpse. I hope that my cousin can come back safely."
"As long as my cousin comes back, the Zhangsun Clan, Duanmu Clan, and Sikong Clan won't dare to start a second war. After all, my cousin killed that bastard, Duanmu Jinyun."
"However, it's not like we don't have any defensive power. Bo Yu, Xiao Chen, Da Huang, and the Fengsha Sword can fight against a First or Second Layer Heavenly God. Together with me, we can fight against three Heavenly Gods."
"However, we don't have any high-level Heavenly Gods. This is our fatal weakness. The enemy only needs a Third Layer Heavenly God to defeat us easily."
"I can't guarantee that the three great clans don't have any other Heavenly Gods. Let's just talk about the Demonic Hall for now. If the three of them make a comeback, the Xuanyuan Clan might be annihilated."
"So, we have to prepare for the worst. I suggest secretly moving some of the talented disciples of the Xuanyuan Clan away so that we can preserve the lineage of the Xuanyuan Clan when the Xuanyuan Clan is destroyed."
"Moving the disciples away? That's a good suggestion. The problem is, where should we move them to? "Xuanyuan Feiyu continued Xuanyuan Guao's words.
"Let's move them to the mountains. The more inaccessible the place, the better. The Central Plains has plenty of places like that," Xuanyuan Guao answered Xuanyuan Feiyu's question.
"Mm, that's a good way to preserve the lineage of the clan." Xuanyuan Boyu made the decision and gave an order.
"Seventh Elder, Eighth Elder, in the following days, you'll be in charge of selecting the most talented disciples in the clan and finding a suitable place to secretly move them away. Is there a problem?"
"No problem, Patriarch." Xuanyuan Tianxiong and Xuanyuan Tianxu solemnly promised. If they couldn't even do something like that, then they weren't fit to be elders of the Xuanyuan Family.
"I'm counting on you." Xuanyuan Boyu nodded. He trusted Xuanyuan Tianxiong, otherwise he wouldn't have given the Xuanyuan Family's foundation to the two of them.
"Family head, you're too kind. This is just something we should do." Xuanyuan Tianxiong and Xuanyuan Tianxu were flattered by Xuanyuan Boyu's courteous words.
"Yes."
Xuanyuan Boyu seemed to have a natural talent for leadership. It had only been a day, but he had already entered the state of the family head. He had the same talent for leadership as his elder brother.
Xuanyuan Guao was very pleased that Xuanyuan Boyu had easily gained the loyalty of the two elders. When he looked at Xiao Chen, he subconsciously smiled and asked,
"Xiao Chen, do you have any suggestions for the Xuanyuan Family's current predicament? Feel free to speak your mind, hehe. "
"Me?" Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. He muttered to himself for a moment, then thought of a bold suggestion. He carefully considered his words, then said seriously, "Everyone, I suggest we launch a counterattack against the other three great clans.
"Everyone, I suggest that we launch a counterattack against the other three great clans. Instead of waiting for the other three great clans to besiege the Xuanyuan Family, why don't we take the initiative and defeat the three great clans one by one?"
"We don't need to destroy the three great clans, but we need to heavily injure them so that they won't be able to ally against us in the short term. At the same time, we can teach the three great clans and the other great clans of the Central Plains a bloody lesson. At the same time, we can prove that the Xuanyuan Family still has the strength to be the number one clan. Do you think my suggestion is feasible?"
"Counterattack!"
After hearing Xiao Chen's suggestion, the eyes of everyone present, including the sleepy yellow dog, suddenly lit up. They looked at the serious Xiao Chen in surprise. They were surprised that Xiao Chen was so bold.
"Good! You have guts! Brother Xiao, your suggestion is very bold and feasible! "Xuanyuan Boyu slapped the table and praised. His eyes were filled with killing intent. It was obvious that he was tempted.
"Bo Yu, I agree with Xiao Chen's strategy!" Xuanyuan Guao immediately responded. On the surface, he seemed to agree with Xiao Chen's strategy. He also added what Xiao Chen had not finished saying.
"We can use the Spatial Shuttle or the Spatial Shuttle to arrive at the doorstep of one of the three great clans without anyone noticing. Then, we can launch a crazy attack and kill as many as we can."
