The Imperial City of the White Moon Empire.

A sprawling mansion.

The mansion is built in a luxurious atmosphere, magnificent and magnificent, like a palace.

There is an ancestral hall in this mansion, and there are jade plaques in the ancestral hall, and there is a faint light flashing in the jade plaques.

And among these jade plaques, one of them was cracked and lost all its luster.

The person in charge of this ancestral hall came to see this morning, and when he found out about this scene, he was immediately startled, and then rushed out of the door in a panic and ran towards the room where the head of the family was.

"The head of the house, the head of the house, it's not good!"

He ran to the door of a room, banged on the door in a hurry, and shouted inside.

After shouting for a moment, an impatient voice came from inside, asking, "What happened to the yelling one?"

"Family Master, Young Master Chen's jade plate is broken. ”

"What?"

The people in the room were visibly taken aback.

Before the people outside could continue to speak, the door suddenly opened, and a man about forty or fifty years old walked out, with a look of horror and anger on his face.

He didn't even wear shoes, he was directly wearing a white underwear, walked out barefoot, grabbed the collar of the steward, stared at him with round eyes, and asked, "What did you just say?"

"Home...... Head of the family, I went to the ancestral hall just now to check and found ...... Found Young Master Chen's jade plaque...... Broken...... Shattered. ”

The steward was frightened by the middle-aged man's expression, and his speech stumbled, obviously very frightened.

He knew that Young Master Chen was the next head of the family who had been selected by the family, and he had been cultivated by the family with no effort to do so, and he had also tried his best to send him to the Yitian Sect, the largest sect in the empire.

It is said that Young Master Chen has not lived up to the cultivation of the family, and now he is the core disciple of Yitian Sect, and his strength is outstanding.

Judging from this situation, when Young Master Chen comes back in the future, he will definitely set off a storm in the imperial city, leading the family to surpass other opponents and become the largest family under the imperial family in the empire.

This is the family's expectation and the family's plan.

By now, this plan can be said to have been completed for the most part, and Young Master Chen has become the core disciple of Yitian Sect, and he will be able to return to the family from Yitian Sect after a while.

At that time, it was the time when the family set off a storm in the imperial city.

But unexpectedly, this morning, he found that the jade plate that belonged to him was broken.

This jade plaque is made of a special material, which can contain a wisp of the monk's soul power and become the embodiment of his life existence.

When a person lives, the jade plate is intact, and when a person dies, the jade plate is immediately shattered.

Young Master Chen's jade plate is broken, which means that he is dead.

Hearing such news, it was naturally impossible for the head of the family to remain indifferent.

Although the steward knew this very well in his heart, he couldn't help but be startled when he saw the angry look of his family master.

When the middle-aged man heard the steward's words, he threw away his collar, his expression was gloomy, his eyes flashed, and he seemed to be thinking about something.

Then, with a fixed expression, he shouted to the steward, "Go and invite the elders, I have something important to discuss." ”

"Yes. ”

The steward agreed, hurriedly, turned around and ran away.

……

……

"Master, what happened, why did you suddenly come to us?"

"Could it be that those people in the Hong family are making trouble again?"

"Hmph, those damn guys, sooner or later they're going to slaughter them all. ”

“……”

All the elders below speculated, and they all subconsciously targeted the Hong family, the family's heart.

The Hong family is another big family in the imperial city of the White Moon Empire, and the strength is comparable to that of the Dongfang family, it can be said that it is the two major overlords in the imperial city, except for the imperial family, no one can compete with them.

The Hong family and the Dongfang family have always been incompatible, and each other has had troubles on each other's territory in the past, and there have been many fights between the two parties.

The head of the Dongfang family hurriedly brought everyone over today, and everyone didn't think much about it, thinking that the people of the Hong family had come to make trouble again.

Dongfang Xiong, the head of the Dongfang family, was sitting precariously, his face was cold, his eyes swept over the elders below, and said, "Give me a little quiet." ”

Suddenly, everyone was silent, and they all looked at Dongfang Xiong.

Dongfang Xiong said coldly: "Put aside the Hong family in advance, I came to you today because I have a more serious matter to tell you." ”

"What the hell is going on, master?" someone asked.

Dongfang Xiong's face was gloomy, and there was anger in his tone, and he said, "Chen'er...... He's dead. ”

"What?"

The simple four words set off an uproar, and all the elders stood up from their chairs in shock, looking at Dongfang Xiong with shocked faces.

"Head of the family, what did you say?

"How is this possible? Isn't Chen'er a core disciple of the Yitian Sect? Who can kill him?"

"What the hell is going on?"

“……”

Everyone asked angrily, and their expressions were no longer as calm as before.

Even if someone from the Hong family came to make trouble, they could deal with it calmly and not be afraid of danger, but when they heard the news, they couldn't calm down no matter what.

Dongfang Chen has been cultivated by the family for many years, and it has taken great painstaking efforts to make it the key to the Dongfang family's rise to the top in the future.

Now that he is dead, it means that all the hard work of the Dongfang family for so many years has been wasted, how can this not make people angry.

Dongfang Xiong is worthy of being the head of the family, even if he is angry, but at this time, he can suppress the anger in his heart and let himself behave as calmly as possible.

He raised his hand, signaled everyone not to argue, and then said: "I just heard about this matter, I don't know what happened, but now the jade plate in the ancestral hall is completely shattered, which means that Chen'er has died, and the family's hard work over the years has been in vain." ”

Speaking of this, Dongfang Xiong's tone was a little heavy, he paused slightly, and continued: "I brought you here, just hoping that you can take care of the family for me in the next period of time, don't let this matter be known by the people of the Hong family, it is best to let everyone know, so that nothing has happened, and don't leak a little rumor." ”

Hearing this, everyone was slightly stunned, and an elder asked, "Family Master, what do you mean by this? You let us take care of the family affairs for you, what about you?"

Dongfang Xiong looked out of the hall, his eyes became cold and vicious, and said: "Anyway, Chen'er is my son, and I am the head of the Dongfang family, both public and private, I must go to Yitianzong to find out about this matter!"
