Chapter 258: Hands to Rain

Mito Rieko did not run directly to the main meeting hall, but went to the mourning hall first.

The bodies of the people of Mitozawa rested here.

Although it was hot, I didn't have to worry about rotting after receiving the ice coffin.

The funeral ceremony needs to be presided over by the new head of the family.

So he could only stop here and wait for the birth of a new head of the family.

At this time, the mourning hall was empty.

She walked into the mourning hall and did not salute, but silently looked at the portrait hanging on the ice coffin.

The lid of the ice coffin is closed.

First, it was for the need of coldness, and second, because although his body had been repaired and painted, it was still ugly.

"Hehe, brother, is this what you want?"

Mito Rieko pressed her chest gently.

The penetrating wound caused by the stab in the back was still painful.

But she didn't take any painkillers.

The pain reminded her not to forget what kind of betrayal she had encountered.

"The Mito family will become one of the largest families of spirit-transporters in Toei, but it will never be what you hope it will be. You think that you are strong, and you have no last resort, and you can influence the situation of the Dongying Spirit Master Realm and become the new overlord.

But in the eyes of the real strong, they are not even as good as ants.

Do you know what Miss Yan told me?

She said that the Dongying Spirit Master Realm was like a confined space filled with combustible gas, and it only needed to cast a small spark to ignite, and it would explode with a bang.

Everyone will be blown to pieces by their own ambition and greed.

The moment you make your decision, you're dead!

That's fate!

And the Mito family can continue to exist, not because of you, but because of me!

Today, the fate of the Mito family is in my hands! ”

She turned her head in the direction of the conference hall, her gaze obscured.

Inside the conference hall of the house.

The quarrel that had lasted for half the night finally stopped.

Everyone stared solemnly at the door of the conference hall.

The ten-year-old Mito Shotai couldn't understand it, so he asked his eldest sister Yumi Mito who was sitting next to him in a low voice, "What's wrong with everyone?" Is it up to you to decide who will be the head of the house? ”

The fierce argument between the adults just now really frightened the young general, and he kept shrinking into the arms of the eldest sister for comfort, but when the quarrel stopped, the eldest sister pushed him away and asked him to sit down and not show any uneasiness or fear.

Will be too incomprehensible, as if he can't understand the quarrel just now.

Yumi Mito is nearly twenty years older than Mito Shosa, and has been raising Shota himself since his mother's death, and for Shota, he is no different from his mother.

"Sit down, don't talk."

Mito Yumi scolded lightly, but when he saw Mito Shogun's eyes that were too ignorant and frightened, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, helped him tidy up his clothes, and said softly: "My aunt is back, everyone is waiting for her." ”

Mito Shota let out an "ah" and his eyes widened, "Didn't they say that my aunt was a rebel?" Why can she still come back? ”

"Don't talk about that anymore." Mito Yumi grimaced, turned his head and glanced at the three younger sisters who were kneeling side by side behind him, "You are the same." ”

The three younger sisters bowed their heads in unison.

Mito Yumi said to Shota at this time: "My aunt is not rebellious, but she has some different opinions from my father about the future of the family. The father never declared the aunt to be a rebel. ”

Mito Shoji didn't know why, "But everyone says she's a rebel, I heard Brother Masao say that she killed Brother Masao and snatched ...... Okamaru Kiri"

"Shotai! Remember my words, my aunt is not a rebel, if anyone says this to you again, you must tell me, and you must not believe it, you know? ”

Mito Yumi's expression became stern.

This younger brother is too young, and many deeper interests cannot be explained to him, so he can only force it for the time being, and then slowly explain it to him later.

Everyone knows that Mito Rieko actually defected from the family.

But only the core members of the family knew that she had taken refuge in Wei Chaoyang and became a bodyguard for Wei Chaoyang's girlfriend with a king-level human luck.

So what it means for her to be back now is self-evident.

The people of Mitozawa dared to lead the Mito family to set off a great chaos that affected the entire Dongying Spiritual Master World, and the most important thing to rely on was to get the promise and support of Wei Chaoyang.

The appearance of Rieko Mito means that this ghostly man is impatient with the internal strife of the Mito family and is ready to intervene.

There are already more than two dozen families that have been destroyed in the hands of this man.

Now the Dongying Fortune Spirit Master Realm is secretly calling him the Destroyer of the Family.

The opinion of such a person, who dares not to pay attention!

With the three parties evenly matched and the elders of the family having their own opinions, the man's opinion will ultimately determine the ownership of the head of the family.

"See your aunt in a while, don't show your weakness, let her see your strength, you know?"

"I know, but my aunt knows me well."

"She only knows about you before her father died."

"But I don't want to be the head of the house."

"You must be the head of the house, or we will all die without a place to bury."

The hall door opened silently.

Everyone subconsciously straightened up and held their breath.

Rieko Mito walked in.

She was soaking wet, and the rain was running down her hair and her forehead, but she didn't look embarrassed, but like a queen patrolling her territory, she held her head high and looked down on the restless elders, retainers, and Mito people with a condescending look.

"You incompetent rats. The family of the ancient wild has launched an attack on us, and the danger of destruction is imminent, but you are still arguing about these useless things.

Zeren is with insects like you, and you still want to dominate Dongying, it's really naΓ―ve and ridiculous.

Now, it's time to put an end to your stupid bickering.

The position of the head of the family is held by Shota, Sakuma Morio, fulfill your duties as the head of the pen family!

Don't waste time, we still need to attend the family conference convened by Miyagi and Rakuzumi! ”

Sakuma Morio, the old man of the Mito family, is about to be ninety years old, his hair and beard are all white, but his complexion is as good as that of a young man, and he looks like the spirit of the other four elders sitting on his left and right sides.

Hearing Mito Rieko's words, he sat up, stared at her, and asked, "Rieko, is this what Mr. Wei meant?" ”

"That's what I meant." Mito Rieko replied coldly, "Mr. Wei does not interfere in the internal affairs of the Dongying Spirit Master Family. ”

"How do you decide the position of the head of the house!"

Yuto Mito immediately jumped up, pointed at Rieko and scolded, "You rebellious, what qualifications do you have to do this." How old is Mito Shota, how can he afford this burden. You clearly want to control the family by using Shotai! You want to take revenge and lead the Mito family to destruction! As long as I, Yuto Mito, are alive, I will never let you succeed......"

"Then you're going to die!"

Rieko suddenly drew her sword out of its sheath and rushed to Yuto Mito like lightning, cutting off his head with a single sword.

She was obviously more than 20 meters away from Mito Sato, but as soon as the knife was pulled out, it slashed at Mito Yuto's neck.

It's like a teleportation.

It was as if the knife had been resting on Mito Yuto's neck.

What's even more weird is that everyone saw the whole process clearly, but no one had time to stop it.

The words "let's die" came out, and the head just flew up.

Blood poured out like a fountain.

In the quiet conference room, the snorting of blood was clear and harsh.

Mito Shota's face was pale, his throat rolling, as if he wanted to scream, but also as if he wanted to vomit.

But he didn't do anything after all, just sat quietly and straight.

Because the eldest sister was looking at him with stern eyes, suppressing the fear in his heart.

The crowd behind Mito Hiroto waited for a moment of astonishment, and then they all stood up with a bang.

There are even people who pull out their waist knives in a moment's rage, and then quickly insert them back.

No one dared to step forward to seek justice for Mito Boruto.

"The Mito family needs loyal ministers and retainers in times of crisis, but there is no need for careerists who want to take advantage of the opportunity to seize power and cause trouble to the family!"

Rieko slowly put her knife into the sheath and turned her head to look at Kenjiro Mito, who was sitting on the other side.

Compared to the irascible and incompetent Boruto Mito, Kenjiro Mito is the real hidden danger.

Capable and ambitious, with enough followers, once he decides to fight for the position of head of the family by any means, it is enough to win over most of the family members, and even the majority of the family elders will support him.

In that case, the Mito family will inevitably follow in the footsteps of the Hanamoru family.

Kenjiro Mito sat on his knees, his face cloudy, and a little sweat oozing from his forehead.

Behind him, a group of cronies and supporters shook their bodies uneasily, and some were even ready to confront Rieko head-on and protect Kenjiro from escaping.

Mito Rieko is known as the first sword of the fast waves, and she has the family's strongest luck weapon, Okamaru Kiri, and no one has the confidence to confront her head-on.

However, the battle for power is never a matter of high force value and will definitely be won, and in the end, it depends on the will of the people and the ability of the wrist.

As long as Kenjiro can escape, at worst, the Mito family can be split in two.

"Miss, I have no intention of causing trouble to the family." Kenjiro Mito slowly lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "If the eldest lady can help preside over the overall situation, I will never object to Shota becoming the head of the family." My opinion remains the same, after losing the head of the house, the Mito family needs a strong enough host, and the Yumi sisters cannot. ”

Mito Rieko's expression became a little dazed.

It's as if the soul has broken out of its shell and gone to some unknown space, leaving only the shell here.

In fact, when Kenjiro said this, what appeared in front of her eyes was the long-legged girl who looked harmless to humans and animals.

"Rieko, the people of Mitozawa are dead, I promised you to stay with the Mito family, you can go back and take care of that mess now."

"Miss, I have sworn to be your bodyguard and will not bother with the affairs of the Mito family again."

"I'll come back when I'm done, it's not like I won't let you come back. Now that the Mito family has emerged as the head of the family, three forces are vying for the position of head of the family, and if you don't go back and take care of it, you will probably be destroyed in the crisis of the invasion of Nakono. Then I won't break my word. ”

"But I'm already a rebel in the family, and I don't have any helpers in the family, even if I go back, no one will listen to me."

"Ha, what are you talking about, you are a bodyguard for me, if you declare you a traitor, won't it give me face? If you don't give me face, you don't give Wei Chaoyang face, do you think the people of Mitozawa have the guts? Don't worry, as long as you go back, you will naturally be the strongest force, the head of the family, sister, and Wei Chaoyang is still standing behind him, oh, the force value is still so strong, who dares to oppose you, when the time comes, you will have the final say in everything, hurry up and end this boring competition for position. ”

"Among the three parties competing for the head of the family, the general is too young, the four sisters are too weak, Boruto is irritable and reckless, and unpopular, but Kenjiro has been in the family for so many years, and the relationship is intricate, and Zeren is even ready to let him take over as the head of the pen family, whether it is ability, connections, or influence, it is far from being comparable to Tai and Boruto, the only thing he lacks is bloodline, but at the moment of crisis, bloodline is not so important. Even if I don't go, he will be able to end the disputes of the Mito family and ascend to the throne of the head of the family. ”

"What will such a capable and ambitious guy do when he becomes the head of the house?"

"He will inherit the will of Zeren and continue to dominate Dongying's career."

"What do you think Wei Chaoyang will think and do? Would he really like the appearance of another family like the Imperial Three Family? He is a very good-looking person, and since he is in charge of the Edo Committee, he must definitely classify the Edo Committee as a normal committee, instead of being a puppet of the Toei family. But there is still a difference, is it an ordinary regional committee, or a Haicheng committee? ”

"I see. I'll go back and stop Boruto Mito from ascending to the throne of the head of the house. ”

"How are you going to stop it?"

"From the perspective of bloodline, I will push Shota to unite Boruto to fight Kenjiro together, support Boruto with mediocre ability to be the head of the house, and suppress Kenjiro's ambitions."

"It's a bad idea. Recently, I was bored, so I asked Wei Chaoyang to arrange for someone to help me collect some information about the Mito family. Judging from the information, Kenjiro has gathered quite a few people in your family, and many people are indignant that he can't take the throne just because of his bloodline.

If you support Boruto Mito's ascension to the throne from the perspective of blood, it will only exacerbate this sentiment and give Kenjiro a chance to win over these supporters to fight against you, and eventually split the Mito family.

In this situation, if the Mito family is divided, the struggle between the Miyagi and Rakuzumi families will not end as soon as possible. ”

"Isn't this what Mr. Wei wants to see?"

"Ha, what do you think, he just doesn't want to care about the rotten things within your Dongying Spirit Master family, for him, no matter how far these guys fight, they won't change the final result. However, I think it's better for the Speedy Wave region to regain unity as soon as possible, so that you can resist the invasion of the Ancient Wild Region, not fight a few more battles, and show your strength, how can you Speedlang Family make others believe that you can replace the Royal Three Families and dominate the Dongying Soul Master Realm? ”

"Miss, I don't understand."

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you can understand later. Anyway, I think it's better for the Mito family not to split, so you can deal with it, cut down Mito Boruto, support Shota as the head of the family, and appoint Kenjiro as the head of the pen family. ”

"Will Kenjiro just give up?"

Judging from the data, he never does things that he is not sure of victory, and if it sounds good, it is calm, and if it is not good, it is the courage to make no decision at the critical moment. As long as you kill Boruto, he will definitely give in, but he should stick to it for the sake of his own face, for example, his point of view remains the same, he will be too young or something, and then ask you to help preside over the overall situation......"

The voice in the recollection coincides with Kenjiro Mito's voice.

It brings an indescribable sense of fate to Mito Rieko.

She burst out laughing.

This made everyone present a little baffled.

Kenjiro Mito thought she was humiliating herself, and for a while a strong anger swelled up, and she subconsciously clenched her fists.

I really want to do the opposite, break with these incompetent and arrogant guys, and let the bloodline theory die!

But reason immediately suppressed the urge of anger.

Mito Shoji has the identity of the head of the family, not to mention the bloodline, he also has a natural advantage in the legal system of the family inheritance, coupled with the identity of the sister of the head of the Rieko family, he may also get the support of Wei Chaoyang because of this, and the combined strength is only stronger than the power he can control.

He is now the opposite, there is no absolute certainty, and he may even perish immediately because of Wei Chaoyang's intervention and become a joke.

"Miss, are my words so ridiculous?"

He suppressed his impulsiveness and anger and asked rhetorically in a calm voice.

"No, I'm glad you were able to take care of the big picture." Mito Rieko accepted the laughter, with a hint of appreciation, "Like you said, at this juncture, we in the Mito family need stronger leaders, not those incompetent people who steal high positions. ”

As she spoke, she looked at the old Sakuma Morio who was sitting in the center, and said coldly: "The old Sajiu family, the head of the family was unfortunately killed, and you, as the head of the pen, should have stood up to preside over the overall situation, and Fu Zuo Shotai inherited the position of the head of the family." But what about you? But you are hesitating and waiting, vacillating, for your own selfishness, putting the family in danger of splitting, are you worthy of the trust of the head of the family? Do you deserve the position of your own pen? You cut your stomach and apologize, and give up the position of the pen to Kenjiro. ”

Sakuma Morio's face turned pale, he never thought that Mito Rieko would actually aim his contradictory head at himself after killing Mito Boruto, and immediately shouted: "Rieko, you have betrayed the family and defected to outsiders, what qualifications do you have to participate in family affairs here?" Someone, get her up! ”

At this critical moment, if you explain something, it will only make him fall behind, after all, it is a fact that he sat back and watched the three-way struggle for the position and did nothing, and it is unreasonable to do this as a pen head in any case.

Therefore, it cannot be explained, and it must be directly counterattacked.

Everyone knows that Rieko is a traitor, and she came up to kill Boruto again, as long as he gives an order, his own subordinates and Boruto's subordinates will definitely respond immediately, as long as she is arrested first, the rest will be easy to operate.

As for how many lives would be needed to capture or kill Rieko, that was not for Sakuma Morio.

This shout came out, and the subordinates behind Sakuma Morio immediately stood up.

But Boruto's men hesitated and didn't move.

Rieko sneered and grabbed the handle of Okamaru's cut.

"Sakuma Morio, are you going to betray the family? Are you all ready to betray your family? Are you ready to die because of this? ”

"She's only one person! She can't represent the Mito family. And she has a wound on her body, which was stabbed by the head of the family himself. Sakuma Morio felt the shaking of the hearts of the people on his side, and immediately shouted, "We in the Mito family must not let a woman with a suspicious position be in charge. Kenjiro, kill him, I support you as the head of the house! ”

Hearing this, Kenjiro slowly got up, pulled out the knife at his waist, and threw it at the feet of Sakuma Morio, "Elder of the family, if you are really loyal to the family, this sentence will never be spoken." Please give yourself some dignity. ”

"Can an old man with a pen buy you?" Sakuma Morio said loudly, "What kind of loyal minister are you pretending to be here!" If you don't want to be the head of the house, how can you fight with Shotai and Boruto here! What are you saying now that you are loyal to the family, you are obviously afraid of this woman......"

Before he could finish his words, a bloody knife suddenly appeared in his chest.

The knife was so fierce and accurate that it pierced the heart directly.

Sakuma Morio didn't even raise his hand to press the wound before he could finish it.

The assassin of Sakuma Morio was his confidant Kento Someya, a tall samurai who was supposed to protect him closely, but now he took his life.

Someya Kento pulled out his knife expressionlessly, and with a single swing, he cut off Sakuma Morio's head, then knelt on the ground and raised the blood-stained long knife high above his head, "Miss, rebellion has been won, please take charge of the overall situation." ”

Mito Rieko took a deep look at Someya Kento, didn't say anything, turned her head to Mito Shota, who had been frightened by the scene of losing two heads in a row, and said, "Shota, come here!" ”

Mito Yumi suppressed the excitement in his heart, quietly pushed Mito Shota, and said in a low voice: "Go, let my aunt see your strength!" ”

Mito Shosashi was too afraid to look at the headless corpse of Sakuma Morio, so he reluctantly stood up, dragged his weak legs, and slowly walked to Mito Rieko.

Mito Rieko took out a storage and transportation box from her arms, held it high, and showed it to everyone, saying: "The new head of the family, according to the regulations, you should replace the strong luck to serve the palace, this is the number of luck I hunted for the invincible, I hope you will show this luck and lead our Mito family to develop and grow, invincible!" Get down on your knees and I'll change the number of fortunes for you. ”

Mito will obediently fall to his knees.

Someone next to him hurriedly presented all the utensils needed for the exchange.

As a family of soul transporters, the most indispensable thing is these tools.

But Mito Rieko waved her hand to signal the delivery of the utensils to retreat, only raised the storage and transportation box in her hand, and said: "Look at it, remember it, from today onwards, the Mito family will be protected by ghosts and gods like a flower keeper, and will be blessed by ghosts and gods, so it is natural to be the head of the house!" ”

Before she could finish speaking, lightning struck the room, enveloping the room like a twisting branch. Under the reflection of the blue and white electric light, the inhuman distorted figure flashed away in the eyes of everyone.

This scene really shocked everyone.

Mito Rieko immediately said to Mito Kenjiro: "Please check the luck with your pen." ”

When the head of the family changes his or her luck, he must be verified in public by the pen to ensure that the luck is correct.

Kenjiro Mito took out his own guy, carefully verified the luck of Mito Shota, and finally held up the treasure and confirmed to everyone, "The number of fortunes brought by the head of the family is invincible!" ”

The crowd cheered in unison.

The two headless corpses that fell to the ground did not affect the atmosphere of the scene in any way.

The cheers were naturally louder than the four Mito Yumi sisters.

I thought that the position of the head of the family would definitely fly, but I never imagined that Rieko would actually kill it out of thin air, and it was decided in a few words, this surprise was really too big.

Mito Rieko took Shota and turned to Kenjiro and said, "Since the position of the head of the family has been decided, then please go to the family meeting convened by Miyagi and Rakuju on behalf of the head of the family, and show them that my Mito family has completed the handover of the head of the family." ”

Kenjiro said respectfully, "What do you have to say to the eldest lady?" ”

Mito Rieko said in a deep voice: "The Mito family will not decide who will support Miyagi and Rakuju to lead the Sholang family, we think that the leader who can really lead us to break out of the Swift Wave and dominate Toei should be shown in actual actions." Now that Nakono is invading on a large scale, we shouldn't waste time on internal disputes, and suggest that Miyagi and Rakuju each have one side to resist the invasion of the Nakono region, and whoever can show enough leader temperament in this battle will support whoever will lead the clan in the Sholang region! Also, I would like to declare in public that our Mito family will never seek the position of leader again. ”
