Chapter 1248: New Patriarch
Xiang Wang, who had just come to the Qinshuang Courtyard, suddenly rose up, and his expression changed dramatically. Qin Shuang sighed, stood up and said:
"Let's go check it out. ”
Xiang Yang's door was wide open, and at this time, in the room, there were Xiang Jiao and more than a dozen Luo Tianshang Immortal Elders. Xiang Wang walked into the door, Qin Shuang paused, looked through the door, and looked inside.
I saw a person lying on the ground, whose eyebrows were pierced by a sword, but it was now Xiang Yang, the head of the family. Qin Shuang felt a pang in his heart, and he always felt that he was shrouded in conspiracy, and his vigilance was raised to the extreme.
At this time, the guards outside Xiang Yang's house were answering Xiang Jiao's question.
The Third Young Master and the Patriarch entered the room together, and in about three quarters of an hour, the Third Young Master left. After another two quarters of an hour, the disciple smelled blood, and at first the disciple thought that there was something wrong with his sense of smell, how could there be a smell of blood here?
So, I asked my companions, but I didn't expect that my companions on duty with me said that they smelled blood, which made us vigilant, and we searched in the direction of the smell of blood, but found that it came out of the patriarch's room. In a panic, we called for the patriarch again and again, but the patriarch did not respond. We pushed open the door and found the patriarch ...... Already ......"
Xiang Wang's eyes were staring at Xiang Yang on the ground, his teeth were clenched, and the murderous intent in his eyes was fierce.
"Are you saying that the patriarch and the three young men came in together, and then the three young people left, and no one came again?"
"Nope!"
Everyone's eyes converged on Xiang Wang's body, Xiang Wang took a deep breath, and his mind flashed what Qin Shuang had said to him, his father passed the throne to the eldest brother, but the second uncle openly opposed his father at the succession ceremony, and proposed himself, which is absolutely unusual. Although he still can't figure out the reason, but with Qinshuang's reminder, even if he sees the corpse of his eldest brother now, he has forced himself to calm down, he knows that he is caught in a conspiracy, and only by calming down can he find the truth.
"When I left, my eldest brother was fine. And ......" Xiang Wang frowned and said, "Even if I want to be unfavorable to the eldest brother, I am not the opponent of the eldest brother." I have just broken through the Heavenly Immortal Stage, and my eldest brother is a Luo Heavenly Immortal. ”
"You are the patriarch's own brother, the patriarch will naturally not guard against you, if you are under a surprise attack, you may not be able to kill the patriarch. At this time, an elder said in a condensed voice.
Xiang Wang's eyes looked at the elder, he knew that the elder was his cousin, but he was not the uncle of the lineage, it was a side branch of the Xiang family, called Xiang Yu. One is very close to the eldest brother and is a supporter of the eldest brother. Xiang Wang closed his eyes for a moment, and he did not argue with him. The eldest brother died suddenly, and his heart was also very sad. All he wanted to do now was find the beast. His gaze swept to more than a dozen elders, and finally his gaze fell on the monk who had cultivated to the highest peak of the late stage of Luo Heavenly Immortal, and said in a condensed voice:
"Uncle Seven, didn't you find any clues?"
This seventh uncle is Xiang Jinding's younger brother, called Xiang Wuxie, who belongs to Xiang Wang's direct uncle, and when he saw Xiang Wang asking, he shook his head slightly and said:
"No, if, as the guard said, no one has been here since you left. Then there is only one possibility. ”
"What is possible?" everyone's eyes lit up.
"It's a monk with an earth attribute who came from underground, killed the patriarch after you left, and then left from the ground again. If we arrived within a quarter of an hour, we would still be able to sense the aura left over from the Earth Attribute Dao Method, but at this time, we could no longer feel it. ”
"Catching the killer is a big deal, but now we have bigger things to do, and it's urgent. At this time, an elder spoke.
This is the sixth uncle of King Xiang, called Xiang Invisible. Seeing that everyone's eyes were attracted, he spoke again:
"Now there are shadows and mysterious forces outside the family, and it was precisely because of the sudden attack of the shadows and mysterious forces that our old patriarch was seriously injured, and now he is still unconscious. And the death of the current patriarch is also very likely to be caused by the shadows. So, we're not sure at all right now that the Shadow and Mystic Forces will attack us again.
Presumably everyone knows that there are shadows and mysterious forces lurking within our family, and now that the old patriarch is unconscious, Elder Xiang Lie went to Mangcang Mountain to find Jiuyang Grass, and the assassination of the current patriarch must have spread to the shadow and mysterious forces.
If at this time, the shadow and mysterious forces suddenly attack our Xiangjia, where will we go home?"
When everyone heard this, there was this nervousness and anxiety in their expressions, and some even showed a trace of fear in their eyes, but more of them were sad and angry.
When did Xiang Jia be persecuted to this extent?
"We urgently need to elect a new patriarch so that we can bring the family together and lead the family against foreign enemies. ”
Xiang Invisible gaze swept over everyone, and everyone fell into deep thought, and finally Xiang Wuxie, who had the highest cultivation, took the lead in nodding and said:
"Sixth Brother is right. What do you think?"
Everyone nodded one after another, and said to Wuxie: "If you have any candidates, put them forward, and everyone will discuss them." ”
Xiang Wufu preemptively spoke: "The old patriarch now has only two sons left, one is Xiang Jiao and the other is Xiang Wang. Originally, Xiang Wang was the best candidate. However, now King Xiang is not able to clear his suspicion. Therefore, I elected Xiang Jiao. ”
Xiang Jiao waved his hand again and again: "No, my cultivation is not high, it's just the Heavenly Immortal Period, let's let the Seventh Uncle take over as the patriarch." Uncle Seven's cultivation is now the highest. ”
Xiang Wuxian waved his hand and said: "Let's let Xiang Jiao take over as the patriarch first, and when the second brother comes back from Mangcang Mountain, he will wake up the eldest brother, and then the eldest brother will decide, what do you think?"
The highest cultivator opened his mouth to the invisible, and what else could he say, and everyone nodded one after another. Looking to the invisible, to the arrogant:
"Xiang Jiao, taking over as the patriarch at this time is not enjoyment, but responsibility. If you don't have that guts, you can excuse yourself. If you are still the son of an old patriarch, then go ahead. ”
Xiang Jiao's face changed, and finally became resolute and said: "Okay, I will take the position of this patriarch, I hope that all uncles can help me with all my strength to get through this crisis in the family, Xiang Jiao is here to thank you uncles." ”
Xiang Jiao clasped his hands into fists and bowed deeply.
"Don't worry, we will do our best to assist you. Xiang Wuxian said in a condensed voice, and then bowed to Xiang Jiao:
"Meet the Patriarch!"
"Meet the patriarch!" and all the people saluted, even to the king.
"Excuse me, everyone!"
