Xia Family Hall!

"Elders, now that the matter is very clear, the methods you just said are unlikely to work, I wonder if you have any better plans?"

Patriarch Xia Feilong stood at one end of the long table, his eyes swept over the faces of several family elders one by one, today's meeting has been held for nearly three hours. And there was only one thing to discuss in the whole meeting, which was to discuss the strategy of dealing with the meeting of the patriarchs of the three major families of Purple Moon City after the third day.

The current three major families in Purple Moon City are the Xia family, the Su family, and a Gao family. The business occupied by the three major families in Purple Moon City accounted for about eighty percent of all the business in Purple Moon City. Even in the dozens of counties under their jurisdiction, the three major families occupy more than 30% of the business. And those small families and small forces in Purple Moon City are also dependent on the three major families.

However, you must know that the Xia family has only been in Purple Moon City for about half a year, and although it has already gained a foothold now, its foundation is unstable after all. The Gao family and the Su family, although they were taken by Xia Yan's prestige, did not dare to know what to do to the Xia family. But secretly, there are still a lot of their small actions.

There is no family or force that is willing to give away their own interests to others for nothing. The Gao family and the Su family, the two big families of Purple Moon City, of course, did not want their interests to be damaged.

Therefore, the Xia family is actually very excluded in Purple Moon City. The first reason why the Xia family was able to gain a foothold was Xia Yan's might. The second reason is that the Xia family has abundant funds, with the support of Zhouyun Commercial Bank, and there is a white birch who is very powerful in business operation.

However, relying on these alone, the Xia family always suffers. Because, the Xia family's strength is compared to the other two families, there is a certain gap. Xia Feilong, the patriarch of the Xia family, is only in the late stage of the spirit master, which determines that Xia Feilong always has a weak qi in front of the Su family patriarch and the Gao family patriarch.

Especially at the meeting of the three major families, this weakness in the aura made Xia Feilong very uncomfortable.

However, there is no way to do this.

Three months ago, the three major families held a meeting of their patriarchs. At that time, the interests of the Xia family were obviously damaged, but they still had to eat Coptis dumbly, and they couldn't say anything about their suffering.

If a family wants to be truly strong, it cannot be done overnight. The Xia family still has a long way to go if they want to truly become a super family.

Of course, the Xia family's heritage is extremely deep, even deeper than the heritage of the four major families in the Holy City. You must know that the first generation patriarch of the Xia family was the Holy Emperor more than 4,000 years ago.

It's not enough to have a foundation!

The most urgent situation for the Xia family now is to strengthen the middle force. At the very least, there need to be one or two Spirit Sect Suppression Formations. If Xia Feilong could step into the realm of the Spirit Sect, of course, he would not give the Su family patriarch and the Gao family patriarch his aura.

Xia Feilong convened the meeting of elders this time to discuss this matter and how to deal with it. If you can't find a good way, then at the meeting of the three major families after the third day, the Xia family is likely to suffer a dumb loss like the last patriarch meeting.

"Patriarch!"

Grand Elder Xia Lai's eyes flashed, he paused, and then continued, "Why don't we put the matter to the temple meeting to settle it! ”

The temple deacons, there were indeed three at the beginning, and they were brought up by Xia Yan. Moreover, the steward of the temple can also be said to be Xia Yan's confidant.

Xia Changhe shook his head, "Can't all the things be resolved by the Temple Council, right?" Moreover, the ore veins discovered this time were mined by the cooperation of our three families. If it is put in the temple council, there will be many forces involved. The vein discovered this time is a big mine, who doesn't want a piece of the pie?"

If it is put in the temple meeting, I am afraid that the loss of interests will be even greater, so it is better to solve it at the meeting of the three major families.

"The patriarch is right, although Xia Yan is the master of the temple, the temple is not our Xia family after all. You can't put everything in the temple council. The other elder nodded.

"Then what do you say, what should we do? There are three more words, that is, the meeting of the patriarchs of the three major families. Great Elder Xia Lai's breath sank, and he looked at the others with some impatience, "Our Xia family, except for Xia Yan. In terms of force, it is much worse than the Gao family of the Su family. How can this gap be bridged all at once?"

"Patriarch, if you want to step into the realm of the Spirit Sect, I'm afraid it won't be possible to do it in a few decades. Xia Lai gasped, he was also a little anxious, staring at the beads of his eyes.

"It's even more impossible for us to coerce everything in the name of Xia Yan, right? I don't know where Xia Yan is now. If one day, Xia Yan is gone, or can't help our Xia family, what should we do?" Xia Lai took a breath and said continuously.

Although his words are not good, they are true. The current Xia family looks huge, but the backbone is still very weak.

After this period of penance, there are as many as fifteen people who have stepped into the spiritual master. However, they are all early stage spirit masters, and the most right are mid-stage spirit masters, which is certainly more than enough to deal with some small families, or some families in the county town. But compared to families like the Su family and the Gao family, it is still far behind.

For a moment, the entire hall fell silent.

"It's really not good, if the cloaked man senior goes with the patriarch to attend the meeting of the patriarchs of the three major families. With the cloaked man seniors here, he can overwhelm the two families if he releases a momentum casually. ”

After a long time, suddenly the eyes of the four elders lit up and said loudly.

The predecessor of the cloak man has cleared a lot of obstacles for the Xia family. Every time the Xia family encounters something that can't be solved, as long as they ask the cloaked man's seniors to take action, the next day, the obstacle will be removed.

Several elders and Xia Feilong looked at each other, and their thoughts were similar.

"It's really not possible, and that's the only way to do it. Xia Feilong sighed secretly and shook his head.

"Knock knock~"

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door of the council hall.

"Patriarch, Elders!"

Immediately, the voice of the guard was heard.

Xia Feilong's face turned angry, and he scolded, "Didn't I tell you that everything should be said after the discussion is over, don't come to disturb our deliberations now?"

An hour ago, because the patriarch of a small family asked to see the patriarch Xia Feilong, the guards came to report. Xia Feilong and the others were originally panicked because they didn't have good countermeasures, and of course they weren't angry. Therefore, at that time, he would reprimand the guard for a few words, and let the guard take the patriarch of the small family to the Xia family's living room to wait.

And now, the guards have come to disturb again.

"Patriarch, it's the hall master who is here! The hall lord wants to see you and the elders. The guard was outside the door, and was scolded by Xia Feilong, and his face turned pale suddenly, but he still gritted his teeth and said loudly.

"Huh?"

Xia Feilong and several elders were all shocked.

"Hall Master, which Hall Master?" Xia Feilong asked with a turn of his eyes, and immediately changed his tone.

"The patriarch is the Lord of the Xia Yan Palace. The guard heard that the patriarch's tone had softened, and he couldn't help but feel relieved and continued.

"Xia Yan is back?" Xia Feilong hurriedly walked towards the door of the hall, and several elders also followed Xia Feilong quickly. It has been about half a year since Xia Yan left last time.

Xia Yan returned to the family yesterday, but the patriarch and the children of the family didn't know about it.

Xiaoqing and Yuan Shan, the two daughters, after using the Flame Golden Crystal and the Yiyuan Dan, became powerhouses in the Lingzong realm. Xia Yan took a moment to refine eight bottles of spiritual liquid with pipa grass and some other medicinal herbs.

Xia Yan came to see the patriarch just to give the spiritual liquid to Xia Feilong, and then ask about the development of the family.

"Squeak ......"

The heavy door of the hall was suddenly opened by Xia Feilong. A guard stood in front of the door, and more than ten meters behind the guard was Xia Yan, who was dressed in a white robe.

"Xia Yan, when are you coming back!" Xia Feilong opened his eyes, grinned, and looked at Xia Yan with a smile.

"Xia Yan!" Several elders also politely hugged their fists to Xia Yan. Although Xia Yan is the hall master of Purple Moon City, he is still a child of the Xia family, and in the family, the elders and patriarchs are Xia Yan's elders, so they do not greet them with the gift of the hall master.

"Patriarch, elders, how is everything in the family in the recent past?" Xia Yan smiled, clenched his fists slightly at Xia Feilong and the others, and asked at the same time.

"The family business is thriving, and it has developed steadily as a whole, and it has also completely gained a firm foothold in Purple Moon City. Xia Feilong listened to Xia Yan's inquiry and said hurriedly.

Although within the family, he did not see Xia Yan as the hall master, but he did not dare to trust Xia Yan like he did to the children of other families. The tone in which Xia Yan spoke was also extremely polite.

"Well, that's good. Xia Yan nodded, "The patriarch and the elders, it seems that they are discussing something important? I heard the guards say that they have been in the council hall for three hours. ”

Xia Yan's eyes rolled and swept over Xia Feilong and several elders. Although Xia Yan doesn't care about things in the family, it is of course normal to ask casually.

"Well, it's actually like this......" Xia Feilong briefly explained the matter to Xia Yan.

The main root of the problem is that the Xia family has no other Spirit Sect powerhouses to support except Xia Yan. It is conceivable that a big family in a main city, or a main city like Purple Moon City, does not have the support of a strong person from the Spirit Sect within the family, and externally, it is indeed a little weak.

"Oh?" Xia Yan's eyes flashed, nodded, and said in his heart, "This is indeed a problem. Even the patriarch himself is still an early stage spirit master. Communicating with the Su family and the Song family, it is obvious that the aura is insufficient. ”
