Chapter 218: For the Family?

Since Xia Liuyun, the head of the Xia family, left the family and disappeared, the entire Xia family has been controlled by the three elders of the family.

And because the former has been gone for many years, although Yu Wei still exists, most of the main forces of the Xia family still fall into the hands of the three elders, and the power of the Xia family mastered by the three elders at this time is even faintly above Xia Liuyun back then.

Therefore, over the years, the three elders have almost re-established their own set of rules, which have almost completely overridden the rules set by Xia Liuyun at the beginning, and they have not even taken the clan rules set by the latter seriously.

This phenomenon is well known to everyone, and many people are quite angry because of it, after all, the so-called rules like the three elders are actually ugly, but it is better to directly say that they like it, and they can decide the priest at will.

It is precisely because of this that as long as the characters and factions close to the three elders have gained a lot of benefits in the few years since the patriarch disappeared, although many people are dissatisfied with this, but because the power of the elder council controlled by the three elders has really swelled more and more, they can only choose to keep silent.

Today's Xia family, it can be said that almost more than ninety percent of the high-level figures are on the side of the Council of Elders. It is precisely because of this that before Fang appeared, the people of the Council of Elders were able to force Gong Xia Xuan to gamble with Xia Fei, and then let him lose the absurd thing of the young master's position.

Almost no one in the Xia family knew about these things, but everyone tacitly didn't mention them.

However, who would have imagined that these secrets, which were not secrets at all, were directly revealed by Xia Xuan in front of so many people at this moment.

Xia Xuan's words were equivalent to directly piercing the last thin layer of window paper, which could be said to be almost no different from slapping the faces of the three elders in front of everyone. After all, the following sins are not tolerated in any family.

Although Xia Liuyun has disappeared for many years, the position of the patriarch is on his head after all, and their elders will bypass the rules set by the patriarch and set up their own set of rules, what is going on?

If such a thing spreads, I am afraid that the Xia family and the Council of Elders will directly become the object of ridicule and contempt of the entire Falling Maple City. The more powerful the force, the more they care about their own face, and such a thing is absolutely not allowed to happen.

Therefore, Xia Xuan's direct roll call in front of everyone was almost no different from having to tear his face with the Council of Elders and the three elders on the spot.

Sure enough, when Xia Xuan said this, the smile on the second elder's face faded a lot, and a hint of yin and evil also appeared in his pupils, and at the same time, hidden in the depths of the yin and powerful, there was also a color of jealousy.

Xia Liuyun, the head of the Xia family.

The man in Xia Xuan's mouth, even if he was mentioned, a touch of jealousy could not help but appear in his eyes, his terrifying combat power and his attitude of always being calm and controlling everything, even if he thought about it, it would make him feel a feeling of palpitations.

However, fortunately, now he has completely disappeared from this world!

Taking a deep breath, the jealousy in Xia Pingtian's eyes slowly disappeared, and then, the corners of his mouth curled up with a sneer, and he said with a straight face: "Junior, don't chew the root of your tongue, beware of provoking fire!" The Xia Liuyun Patriarch has an unshakable position in the hearts of any clansman in the Xia family, how can we wait for the Elders to Yu Yue?"

"However, after all, the patriarch has been away from the family for many years, so he does not fully understand what is happening in the family, and the rules that have been established cannot be completely suitable. That's why I, the Presbyterian Church, are exercising some new rules for the good of my family. Presumably, if Patriarch Xia returns in the future and sees the Xia family thriving, he will definitely not blame me and others!"

Xia Pingtian's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance made many people nod lightly secretly. Regardless of whether what he said was in line with what he did, at least his words made many people secretly agree with it in their hearts.

Feeling the faintly changed atmosphere around him, the corners of Xia Pingtian's mouth also curled up without a trace, revealing a somewhat smug smile, and then his eyes glanced at Xia Xuan again, and there was a slight provocation in his sight.

He naturally knew that Xia Xuan's previous words were simply trying to pull everyone present to put pressure on him and force him to compromise. But no matter what, he still lived for many years after all, how could he let a hairy boy succeed easily?

Looking at the posture and appearance of the old man in front of him, the corners of Xia Xuan's mouth also provoked a somewhat mocking sneer. At that moment, the corners of his mouth slowly provoked a somewhat playful smile, and said with a light smile: "It turns out that the second elder is such a bitter smile, so it seems that I have misunderstood the second elder a little." ”

Hearing Xia Xuan's faintly admittedly cowardly words, Xia Pingtian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but then there was a hint of sarcasm in the smile on his face, he thought that this kid in front of him was so difficult to deal with, it turned out to be nothing more than that?

He secretly sneered contemptuously in his heart, and at that moment, Xia Pingtian's face was full of that warm smile again, and he seemed to wave his hand quite generously, and said with a smile: "Everything that the Elders Council has done is for the sake of the Xia family, and there is absolutely no selfishness!"

Immediately, he turned his head to look at Xia Xuan again, and said softly as if comfortingly: "Xia Xuan, this matter of stealing the family's elixir is indeed too involved, these elixirs can be said to be the most precious foundation and resources of the Xia family, and they can refine I don't know how many pills to improve the strength of my Xia family, and there is no room for any sloppiness." Therefore, the old man must press Xia Lan back to the Law Enforcement Hall today and give the entire family an explanation, I hope you don't blame the old man. ”

But then, he immediately changed his voice, and said: "But Xia Xuan, don't worry, the old man can guarantee that as long as Xia Lan's suspicion is cleared, she will be handed back as soon as possible!"

Listening to Xia Pingtian's seemingly sincere words, Xia Xuan's eyes flashed, and then fell into silence, looking like he was a little moved.

And his silence also made many people's faces appear completely different.

High in the pavilion, Xia Lian looked at the young man below who seemed to be a little moved, and a trace of anxiety flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Xia Xuan wouldn't really believe the words of the Second Elder!
