When Xiao Cui entered the courtyard, she looked around, and when she saw Xia Yan in the room, she raised her eyebrows and walked in. Xiao Cui was wearing a purple cotton skirt and a pair of white feet with pink soft-soled cloth shoes, and she was seventeen or eighteen years old. It's just that at this time, in front of Xia Yan, he put on an arrogant look, a little bit of a dog's eye looking down on people.

"Xia Yan, the patriarch asked you to go to the conference hall immediately!" Xiao Cui walked into Xia Yan's room, Xia Yan didn't pay attention to her, still holding a brush and writing slowly on rice paper. Xiao Cui glanced at Xia Yan and called Xia Yan by name, without the slightest respect in her words, obviously she did not regard Xia Yan as her master.

Xia Yan didn't care about this, he had lived in this forgotten corner of the Xia family for fourteen years, how could he care about the arrogant attitude of a subordinate?

"yes, I see. Xia Yan replied casually, but he was guessing in his heart, why would the patriarch let him go to the council hall? The council hall is such an important place, even those who are more favored by the descendants of the family cannot enter at will.

While Xia Yan was frowning and thinking, Xiao Cui slapped her hand on the table heavily, startling Xia Yan, who was a little distracted in his contemplation.

Xiao Cui snorted lightly, and said in a mocking tone: "Xia Yan, the patriarch asked you to go to the council hall, but you didn't go right away?

At this time, Xiaocui's tone seemed to be the master teaching his subordinates. Xia Yan is a direct descendant of the Xia family, even if he is not welcomed, he is not a subordinate who can command him, right? Seeing Xiao Cui looking down on people like this, Xia Yan glanced at Xiao Cui coldly.

Xiao Cui was looked at by Xia Yan like this, and suddenly felt a little weak, and her fingers trembled slightly. may have noticed that he was weak, and immediately muttered with a look of disdain: "Hmph, nesting in such a grass hut where no one can live, do you really think you are the master? ”

The woman Xiaocui hates in her mouth is naturally Xia Yan's mother. She has been in the Xia family for seven or eight years, and she knows Xia Yan's mother.

Xia Yan's face suddenly darkened, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he suppressed his anger and said: "Hehe, even if I am weak, if I kill you now, it will not be difficult." Xiaocui, you know that even if I kill you, it's not a big deal. In a big family like our Xia family, if a few people die, no one will track it down!"

Seeing Xia Yan sneering and revealing Bai Sensen's teeth, Xiao Cui panicked for a while, hurriedly took a few steps back, looked at Xia Yan with panicked eyes, and his chest rose and fell violently. She was really frightened by Xia Yan's words. As if she was really afraid that Xia Yan would kill herself here, she took a few steps back and felt unsafe, so she raised her feet and walked out of the room, her face full of horror.

Xia Yan's expression just now was too scary!

The corners of Xiao Cui's mouth, which was standing outside the door, squirmed a few times, as if she wanted to say a few sarcastic words, her eyes flickered and looked at Xia Yan, and finally she didn't dare to say what she wanted to say, so she turned around and quickly walked out of Xia Yan's courtyard with broken steps.

After Xiaocui left, Xia Yan also quickly put away the books on the table, straightened the white-washed and wrinkled robe on his body, and ran out of the courtyard towards the council hall in the front yard of the Xia family.

"The patriarch asked me to go to the council hall, is it because of the matter of my mother's spiritual position?" Xia Yan showed a trace of excitement on his face, thinking as he walked.

The Xia family's mansion was very large, and from the huge backyard to the front yard, Xia Yan spent half a cup of tea. When he arrived outside the council hall, Xia Yan saw that the two uncles in the family were guarding the door of the solemn council hall, so he stabilized his mind and walked straight over with his feet raised.

"Two uncles, the patriarch asked me to come into the council hall to see him!" Xia Yan approached and said respectfully.

The two elder uncles guarding the door glanced at Xia Yan, and said to Xia Yan with an expressionless face: "The patriarch and the elders are discussing inside, you have to talk nonsense when you go in, you have annoyed the patriarch, be careful of losing your surname!"

Xia Yan hurriedly said: "Don't worry, two uncles, I naturally won't talk nonsense!"

"Squeak!" The door of the red council hall was opened, and Xia Yan strode in with some trepidation, this was the first time he had come to the council hall. The council hall is very large, and there are not too many furnishings in the room, but it gives people a heavy sense of oppression. In the center, on the edge of a huge table, sat the patriarch Xia Feilong, who formed the highest power center of the family, and the nine elders of the Xia family.

The third grandfather, Xia Changhe, sat in it, and he couldn't see any expression on his face at this time.

And the patriarch and the great elder, as well as several other elders, pulled their faces to look at Xia Yan who had just come in, and there seemed to be some displeasure in their eyes. Seeing this, Xia Yan chuckled in his heart, and said in his heart, Could it be that the patriarch still doesn't let his mother's spiritual seat enter the ancestral hall and put it together with his father's spiritual seat?

"Xia Yan, your mother's spiritual position cannot be put into the Xia family ancestral hall. Your mother is not from my Dragon Continent, so she is not qualified to be a member of the Xia family. The patriarch's majestic voice said directly, swept by the patriarch's sharp gaze, Xia Yan only felt an aura with a huge sense of oppression coming towards him, making him feel powerless to resist, and even wanted to bow down.

The weak body trembled slightly under the coercion, Xia Yan suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth, and looked at the ten most powerful people of the Xia family present with a fearless look.

"Mother is my father's wife, why can't I enter the ancestral hall? The third elder also said that since my mother is married to my father, she is a member of the Xia family! Great Elder, the third grandfather told me, do you also think that your mother's spiritual position should enter the ancestral hall?" Xia Yan looked at the third grandfather, Xia Changhe, and the eldest elder, Xia Lai.

"Bold!" the Great Elder's face changed suddenly, his eyes glared, he slapped the table angrily, stood up, pointed at Xia Yan and scolded.

"Xia Yan, don't mess around. The third elder, Xia Changhe, also frowned and looked at Xia Yan with a trace of helplessness on his face. He tried his best, but couldn't do anything.

"Third grandfather, my mother is not a bad person!" Xia Yan saw Xia Changhe like this, and his heart was cold, "Third grandfather, you know your mother, you know, your mother is really not a bad person." My mother told me before she died that her last wish was to be with her father forever after she died. My mother has lived in the Xia family for nine years, and she has never done anything to hurt others!"

"Patriarch, please, please let your mother enter the ancestral ancestral hall!" Xia Yan's eyes were bloodshot, and his hoarse voice was full of sincerity and hope, Xia Yan was willing to do anything for his mother's spiritual position to enter the ancestral ancestral hall.

Xia Yan has been waiting for six years, and in these six years, Xia Yan's greatest wish is to be able to fulfill his mother's dying wish. But in the Xia family, he doesn't have any right to speak, and it can be seen from the fact that a subordinate dares to sneer at him.

Patriarch Xia Feilong stared at Xia Yan, and said in his heart, this young man has an indomitable will, but unfortunately he is the child of that demon girl. The demon girl was from the Dark Night Continent, and among the nine elders of the family, only the three elders agreed to put the spirit of the demon girl into the ancestral ancestral hall.
