Chapter 20: The Three-Day War
Outside the Purple Cloud Cave, the clansmen surrounded it.
After all, it is a grand event that only comes once every three years, and the clansmen also want to see how much the most outstanding children of the family have grown.
"Came out, they came out. A sharp-eyed clansman shouted.
"Seeing that they are all smiling, they must be cultivating a lot. ”
The tribesmen were talking about it.
The relatives of the ten family members asked with antiquation.
"Zimu, what's wrong?"
"Zhuang'er, where are you going to rebuild now?"
“....”
"Yi'er. The Third Elder looked at Xiao Yi with a loving face.
"The three elders rest assured, Yi'er has gained a lot in it. Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"That's good. The Third Elder didn't ask about Xiao Yi's cultivation, but just nodded. For him, the surprise that Xiao Yi gave him ten days ago was enough, and no matter what Xiao Yi had gained in the Purple Cloud Cave, he was very satisfied.
However, in the midst of this laughter, the faces of two people became very ugly.
One is Xiao Ruohan, and the other is his father, the Fifth Elder.
"What the hell is going on?" the Fifth Elder said indignantly, "If you want to be cold, your Yellow Rank Martial Soul can definitely condense Qi Pill, how could you suddenly not absorb Spiritual Qi on the last day?"
Xiao Ruohan shook his head and said in a low voice, "I don't know, but I feel that on the last day, it was that little waste who did it." ”
"No way. The Fifth Elder said, "The little waste doesn't have that ability, and his red-level martial soul and low qualifications are far from being your opponents." ”
Xiao Ruohan retorted, "However, how can we explain his sudden increase in strength a few days ago? I don't believe that he can really jump quadruple in a row in half a month, and his weird moves." I think there must be a ghost in this. ”
The Fifth Elder was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "Don't care about these things for now, you won't be able to break through to the Acquired Realm, although the things in the back have become troublesome, but fortunately, I have been prepared." ”
"Ready?" Xiao Ruohan was slightly puzzled.
"Hmm. The fifth elder sneered and said, "Ruohan, let me ask you, with your current strength, can you be sure of winning the little waste?"
"Naturally, there is. Xiao Ruohan affirmed, "Although I don't know how far his cultivation has grown in these days in the Purple Cloud Cave, it is absolutely impossible to break through to the acquired realm. ”
"As long as he is not in the acquired realm, with my Fire Cloud Python Martial Soul, it is enough to exert the strength to crush him. ”
Xiao Ruohan is quite scheming, often calculating others, but he guessed some of Xiao Yi's situations.
"Okay, you can be sure. The fifth elder said that, and suddenly walked in front of all the clansmen.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to me. With the support of the profound True Qi, the Fifth Elder's voice was extremely high-pitched.
The lively atmosphere of the clansmen stopped instantly, and they all looked at him.
"What the hell is this guy trying to do?" Xiao Yi and the Third Elder frowned at the same time.
"Clansmen. The fifth elder looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and said loudly, "The so-called family can't be left without an owner for a day, the position of the head of the Xiao family has been vacant for a long time, and the family is in dire straits, as the elder of the Xiao family, I never want to see the Xiao family decline." ”
"So, I propose, re-elect the head of the family!"
The words of the fifth elder were too sudden, so that the clansmen couldn't react at once.
In fact, although the position of the head of the Xiao family is vacant, the three elders, as the acting head of the family, have taken care of the Xiao family very well over the years. Not to mention that it is thriving, but it is also majestic.
At that moment, some clansmen questioned, "When has the position of the head of the Xiao family ever been vacant? The head of the family is still the head of the family, but now he is not there." Moreover, Fifth Elder, you are proposing today, could it be that you want to be the head of the family?"
The fifth elder immediately replied solemnly, "The head of the family has been missing for a long time, and he exists in name only. And, lest I be criticized, I pledge now in front of all my clansmen that I will never be the head of the family. ”
The Fifth Elder continued, "As an elder, I should put my family first. What the Siu family needs now is a bold leader. I'm not old, but I'm old, and I've long since lost the ambition of a young man. ”
The clansmen said, "It's rare that the five elders understand the righteousness, but how important the position of the head of the family is, how can you say that you can choose it, you must think about it in the long run." ”
"Of course I know that. The Fifth Elder said, "So, now is just a matter of preparing for the future." One of the preparations is to elect a capable young head of the family. ”
"Young family master?" the clansmen suddenly looked strange and discussed.
The Third Elder on the side scolded secretly, already understanding the intention of the Fifth Elder, and immediately shouted, "Fifth Elder, don't go too far, you were already embarrassed everywhere half a month ago. Today, knowing that Yi'er is the young head of the family, and you still want to re-elect the young head of the family, are you really good to bully me?"
When it came to Xiao Yi, the three elders immediately became angry, and their true anger surged out, and they had the potential to fight.
The Fifth Elder seemed to have anticipated the performance of the Third Elder, and said unhurriedly, "The Third Elder should be restless, the position of the head of the Xiao family has always been inhabited by capable people. At that time, the head of the family cultivated to be the best in the whole family, and it was understandable that his son Xiao Yi became the young head of the family. ”
"But now that the head of the family has been missing for many years and has not been heard from, if Xiao Yi is still the young head of the family, wouldn't it be too unfair to the children of other families. If Xiao Yi is capable, he should be the head of the young family, but if he is incompetent, then I must not sit idly by, lest he delay the development of the family in the future. ”
"In the end, I just don't want our Xiao family to fall into the hands of an incompetent person in the future. ”
The five elders spoke one after another, speaking with deep affection and righteousness. I don't know, I really think that he is a person who thinks hard about the family and thinks about everything.
"That's a nice thing to say. The third elder sneered at each other, "Yi'er only defeated Xiao Zimu ten days ago, how can he be incapable?"
The Fifth Elder smiled, "Since the Third Elder thinks that Xiao Yi is capable, let's test it." ”
"How is it tested?" the Third Elder asked.
"It's simple. The Fifth Elder said, "Xiao Yi must once again accept the challenge of all the family members. ”
"Challenge?" the Third Elder frowned.
"Not bad. The Fifth Elder smiled and said, "The position of the young head of the family must be filled by the best disciples. Today, the major geniuses of our Xiao family have cultivated from the Purple Cloud Cave, and their cultivation has risen one by one, with great ambition and extraordinary bearing. If we can choose a better young family head from among them, even if there is still no news from the family head in the future, my Xiao family will not always be leaderless, and a new leader can be selected as soon as possible. ”
The words of the five elders were seamless, and all of them expressed their consideration for the family, which immediately made the clansmen have no doubts.
Of course, from some points of view, there is nothing wrong with his proposal today.
"It seems that if you don't teach you a lesson, you will really get more and more inches. The three elders couldn't suppress the anger in their hearts, and they were about to take action immediately.
Xiao Yi grabbed him, then stood up and said in a loud voice, "I accept any challenge from my disciples, according to your intentions, Fifth Elder, when will the test begin?"
Xiao Yi knew very well that the so-called challenges of all the children were only Xiao Ruohan alone.
After all, since he easily defeated Xiao Zimu ten days ago, the other disciples have felt that they are not opponents. Only Xiao Ruohan has the ability to fight with himself.
Moreover, I believe that in the hearts of many clansmen, they also want to know whether Xiao Ruohan, the first person of the younger generation, is stronger, or himself, the young head of the young family who suddenly rose, is stronger.
"Refreshing. The fifth elder said in a loud voice, "It's rare that Xiao Yi understands the righteousness, I admire it." You have just come out of the Purple Cloud Cave, you must have been tired, in order to let you play a stronger strength, I will give you three days to rest, and after three days, the family martial arts arena will accept the challenge. ”
"Hmph. Xiao Yi sneered in his heart, "It sounds good, but I don't know what conspiracy is going on behind my back." ”
However, he still said, "Okay, according to your wishes, Fifth Elder." ”
