Chapter 52 Representation

However, after Zheng Xu blew up Zheng Tiancai and won the victory, Zheng Huan seemed to have finally waited for the result he wanted, his lips squirmed slightly, and he gradually closed his eyes and died completely.

Zheng Xu looked at Zheng Huan in a daze, his emotions could no longer be controlled, and tears kept flowing from his eyes. Although there was no sound, Zheng Xu also knew what Zheng Huan wanted to say to himself in the end. That was an apology he owed to Zheng Xu's mother and son for many years, and it was also the real reason why he was willing to die until now.

"Dog bastard, you dare to kill my son, I want you to die!"

Just as Zheng Xu watched Zheng Huan die, Liu Qifen, who was sitting in the center of the ancestral hall, seemed to finally remember something, and suddenly stood up and threw himself towards Zheng Xu.

Zheng Xu turned around with a cold expression, but before he could make a move, the three Supreme Elders of the Zheng family immediately stopped in front of Liu Qifen.

"Stop, the challenge is over, Zheng Xu is the next head of the Zheng family, and no one is allowed to conflict again!"

After glancing at Liu Qifen coldly, an old man at the head announced loudly to all the Zheng family members in the ancestral hall, shocking everyone.

Because the three Supreme Elders were all powerhouses in the Martial Spirit Realm, almost no one in the Zheng family dared to raise objections, and they all lowered their heads in silence.

This is the influence of the Supreme Elder, and in the Zheng family, only the head of the family is qualified to talk to them on an equal footing.

The reason why these Supreme Elders sat back and watched Liu Qifen control the entire Zheng family was mainly because they felt that Zheng Tiancai's talent was not weak, and it was possible to lead the entire Zheng family to glory in the future, so they did not pursue the various crimes committed by the mother and son.

But now that Zheng Tiancai is dead, and Zheng Xu looks more potential than Zheng Tiancai, they decisively stopped Liu Qifen and showed their support for Zheng Xu. But Liu Qifen has been operating in the Zheng family for so many years, so naturally he will not be unprepared.

After the three Supreme Elders stood up, the other two Supreme Elders of the Zheng family also walked to the center of the ancestral hall. It's just that they are not Zheng Xu's supporters, but stand behind Liu Qifen.

"Although Zheng Xu is also a child of my Zheng family, he uses talisman seals in the challenge, and his methods are extremely cruel, I don't think he deserves to be the head of our Zheng family!"

Among the two elders who supported Liu Qifen, one of them had obviously received many benefits from Liu Qifen, so he was very partial to her. Although the other did not speak, he stood closely with Liu Qifen, and the meaning of support was self-evident.

Three against two, regardless of the final outcome, is a disaster for the Zheng family. Therefore, no one in the Zheng family wanted to see these five Supreme Elders fight, including these five people themselves. This is the reason why the two Supreme Elders who supported Liu Qifen still came forward to support Liu Qifen knowing that they were at a disadvantage, because they believed that the other three would not be able to attack them.

"Who stipulates that you can't use talismans in challenges? If you want to say cruel words, Liu Qifen's mother and son are even better than me, why didn't you come forward to stop it in the first place?"

After Zheng Xu cheered up from Zheng Huan's death, he once again regained his calm and calm side. Hearing that the Taishang Elder of the Zheng family objected to him becoming the head of the family, Zheng Xu immediately opened his mouth to fight back without showing weakness, and he didn't even give this face to the Taishang Elder at all.

Before he was expelled from the Zheng family, he saw the faces of these Supreme Elders. These people are outwardly detached, but in fact they are outright snobs. They had a strong cultivation, but instead of leading the Zheng family to become strong, they connived at the unhealthy tendencies of the Zheng family, and they were not qualified to be respected by them at all.

It's just that because Zheng Xu still needs their assistance for the time being, he won't beat them all to death with a single shot. In addition to the two who opposed him becoming the head of the family, the other three Supreme Elder Zheng Xu would not be enemies of them for the time being.

"Zheng Xu, what kind of tone are you, don't say that you haven't become the head of the family yet, even if you become the head of the Zheng family, you must be respectful when facing our Supreme Elder!"

The Supreme Elder who was choked by Zheng Xu had an angry look on his face, and seemed to be about to teach Zheng Xu a lesson, but was stopped by the other three Supreme Elders who supported Zheng Xu.

The two sides quarreled, and the situation suddenly reached an impasse.

Liu Qifen had also regained her composure at this time, but her eyes when she looked at Zheng Xu were extremely resentful. If it weren't for the power of the Zheng family, I'm afraid she would have rushed up and died with Zheng Xu by now.

Now that Zheng Xu has the support of the three Supreme Elders, it is almost impossible for Liu Qifen to kill him. But she was well aware of the influence of the Supreme Elder in the Zheng family, even if she was dissatisfied with the three Supreme Elders who supported Zheng Xu, she did not dare to confront Zheng Xu face to face and continue to make enemies for herself.

Just when the Zheng family's internal fighting was stalemate, a middle-aged man suddenly walked out of the visiting guests. He had a mustache and looked treacherous. But Ye Ye judged from his momentum that he was a martial spirit powerhouse, and he was not so easy to deal with on the surface.

"Ahem, everyone, although it was not my intention to intervene in the internal affairs of your Zheng family, it is too wasteful of time to see you continue to argue like this, so I have an immature proposal here, I wonder if you are interested?"

The middle-aged man came to Liu Qifen in the center of the ancestral hall, seemingly neutral, but actually made his choice clear from the beginning.

"What does Steward Qiu propose, but it doesn't matter, the Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce is willing to take the initiative to lend a helping hand to our Zheng family, it is really an honor for our Zheng family!"

When Liu Qifen saw the middle-aged man coming to him, a trace of joy flashed on his face, and he immediately said flatteringly to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man Qiu Yuandong is a steward of the Lingcheng Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce, and because he has had many transactions with the Zheng family, he is also familiar with Liu Qifen.

Although the Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce is not the top chamber of commerce in Lingcheng, it is a behemoth compared to the small chambers of commerce such as the Dongyun Chamber of Commerce. One of their stewards is a martial spirit powerhouse, which shows the strength of the Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce. Liu Qifen was very willing to deal with the Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce, so Qiu Yuandong was pleasantly surprised to stand up and speak at this time.

"I think that since the five Supreme Elders of the Zheng family are deadlocked, it is better to ask the two to appoint a representative from the guests on the scene to compete with each other, and whoever wins will listen to whomever wins. After all, foreign aid is equally important to a family, and choosing a party with strong foreign aid will benefit the Zheng family and do no harm!"

Qiu Yuandong minimized the impact of the competition between Zheng Xu and Zheng Tiancai just now, completely ignored the true meaning of the succession ceremony, and proposed a solution that was obviously biased towards Liu Qifen.

So before Zheng Xu could speak, the Supreme Elder who supported him couldn't help but stand up and strongly object: "The purpose of the succession ceremony is to elect the new head of our Zheng family, and now that Zheng Tiancai is dead, what is the value of the competition?"

The three Supreme Elders would not sit idly by and watch the power of the Zheng family really be completely controlled by Liu Qifen, and when Zheng Tiancai was already dead, they did not hesitate to choose to squeeze out Liu Qifen and support Zheng Xu to ascend to the throne.

We can choose the new head of the family next time, and the Zheng family can continue to be controlled by the eldest lady before the head of the family is elected, and I believe that under her leadership, the Zheng family will only get better and better. ”

The Supreme Elder who supported Liu Qifen immediately refused to accept Zheng Xu, and would rather let the position of the head of the Zheng family be vacant, but also support Liu Qifen to hold the power of the Zheng family in his hands.

Just when the two sides were on the verge of arguing again, Zheng Xu pondered for a moment, and suddenly said to Liu Qifen and Qiu Yuandong: "Yes, I accept your proposal!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the ancestral hall was shocked.

The invited guests of the Zheng family's succession ceremony this time are almost all forces that are friendly with Liu Qifen, among which Qiu Yuandong's Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce is the most powerful. These people couldn't figure out what reason Zheng Xu would agree to this obviously death-proof proposal.

However, Ye Ye, who was silently watching the battle in the corner of the ancestral hall, had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he knew Zheng Xu's thoughts. He gradually walked out of the crowd and came to the center of the ancestral hall, even if he didn't say a word, it was enough to show that Zheng Xu's foreign aid was himself.

Since Gongzi Zheng Xu is so confident in your foreign aid, I, Qiu Yuandong, will recommend myself as the representative of the eldest lady to fight him!"

When Qiu Yuandong saw Ye Ye coming out, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Although he stood up to help Liu Qifen for the sake of profit, he also had the intention of promoting the prestige of the Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce. Among all the guests invited by the Zheng family, Qiu Yuandong thought that his strength was the first, and if anyone dared to doubt his judgment, he would tell him with his fist that this was the truth.

"Thank you Steward Qiu! As long as you can help me win, the Zheng family will definitely not treat you badly in the future!"

Liu Qifen saw that Qiu Yuandong really helped him fight, and hurriedly bowed to Qiu Yuandong gratefully. After getting up, Liu Qifen looked at Zheng Xu and Ye Ye as if he was looking at a dead person, and he didn't think that they had the possibility of winning at all.

Although Liu Qifen didn't know the reason why Zheng Xu accepted the proposal, she was very confident in Qiu Yuandong's strength, and there were countless treasures in the Yuanshan Chamber of Commerce, so she didn't believe that Qiu Yuandong didn't have any hole cards. In her opinion, the moment Zheng Xu accepted the proposal, it was doomed to today's tragic end.

No matter what the people in the ancestral hall really think, the development of things to this point is almost irreversible. Even if it was the three Supreme Elders who supported Zheng Xu, as long as they couldn't fight to the death with the two Supreme Elders who supported Liu Qifen, they could only let Ye Ye and Qiu Yuandong come up with a final result.

Everyone dispersed again, leaving enough space in the center of the ancestral hall for Ye Ye and Qiu Yuandong to compete. Zheng Xu never worried about whether Ye Ye could win or not, so he stepped aside with a very calm face. Liu Qifen's eyes were vicious, because Ye Ye supported Zheng Xu's relationship, he had already hated Ye Ye equally, and at this time, he wished that he would die in Qiu Yuandong's hands immediately.

"I, Qiu Yuandong, have never killed unknown people, so report your name before I do it!"

Qiu Yuandong looked at Ye Ye with a sneer, as if he had already controlled the whole audience, and his arrogance was extremely arrogant.
