The ancestor of the Zhao family, Gongming, has been inherited for tens of thousands of years, and if you want to talk about the clan, there are thousands of descendants alone.

But the Changfang line is not prosperous, and the eldest elder is Zhao Yucai's own uncle and Zhao Gan's uncle.

Zhao Yucai's father was the patriarch of the previous generation, but he only gave birth to one child.

And the Great Elder has produced a lot, but all of them are women.

Zhao Yucai disappeared for five years, and now, the Great Elder is the biggest pillar of the Changfang, and now, even he agrees to be re-elected, which is really a bit unexpected.

You must know that with the system of the Gongming Zhao family, the position of patriarch has always been inhabited by capable people.

However, due to the bloodline, although the long house is not prosperous, it has always been talented, and thousands of years after the revival of the aura, more than half of the period when he was in charge of the family.

But in Zhao Yucai's generation, Zhao Gan is the only one in the bloodline of the Changfang lineage, and he is still a waste who can't practice and acts perversely.

If he is re-elected, the position of patriarch will never be on his head.

Everyone was surprised, and a chuckle suddenly came from outside the door: "Uncles, how can such a big thing be without me?"

The old man in my family is really out of tune, I have long wanted him to step down, and since we are all here today, I will do this by the way!"

The second elder frowned: "Zhao Gan, why is he here?"

The Great Elder smiled: "Could it be that the young patriarch can't come?"

"Ahem..."The second elder coughed dryly twice, and said, "Naturally, but he has rarely returned to the ancestral house over the years, and I'm just a little strange..."

As he spoke, Zhao Gan had already strode in, followed by a wicked man.

"Just a celestial guard?"

The Second Elder secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been preparing for this day for a long time.

Now among the eighteen elders, more than half of them have been wooed by him.

If Zhao Qian really hooked up with the Zhang family of the Emperor clan and brought a group of masters to disrupt the situation, it would be a little difficult to do.

But with just a Heavenly Realm guard, what wind and waves can be stirred?

After all, Zhao Qian still has the identity of the young patriarch, and the other elders have already stood up to greet him, but only the second elder is still sitting still.

Zhao Gan's eyes swept away, first greeted the Great Elder and the others, and then he pulled a chair and sat down, and said with a smile:

"Uncles, go on..."

Before the Great Elder could speak, the Second Elder had already cleared his throat and said:

"The previous re-election resolution has been passed, and there is a record of the fairy light, do you want to take a look?"

"Huh, what are you?"

Zhao Gan's face was flat: "Qiu Laoqi, I respect you as an elder, it is said that during this time, I have newly recruited a concubine, the waist board is not good, the legs and feet are inconvenient, and it is just rude before...

But we are an ancient family, following the ancient rites, this title is not messy, how can I say that we are all dignified young patriarchs, and a minimum of respect is always required, right?"

"You—" The Second Elder's face turned red and pale.

His name is Zhao Qiu, ranked seventh in his generation, and he was called Qiu Lao Qi by his elders when he was a child.

But he has practiced for many years, and now he is a master of the fairyland, and as the second elder of the Gongming Zhao family, he has not heard the title of Qi Lao Qi for many years.

Zhao Gan didn't let him go, and still said with a straight face: "Yo, return you and yours? My position as the young patriarch was also passed by the resolution of the Council of Elders back then."

When my father proposed, Qiu Laoqi, your arm stretched the fastest and longest, what's the matter, now you don't want to admit it?"

Zhao Qiu's old face turned red, and he pointed at him and said angrily: "Today, what we decided is the re-election of the patriarch, and you young patriarch should be able to do it or not!"

Zhao Qianqi said: "What does the re-election of the patriarch have to do with the young patriarch? Besides, do you think I'm rare? I came today and took the initiative to resign!"

However, before you resign, you still have to honestly call me the young patriarch, this is a courtesy! Quickly, shout! Otherwise, I will impeach you for a crime of disrespect!"

In the Gongming Zhao family, there are several Taishang elders under the patriarch, and under the Taishang elders are the young patriarchs.

Speaking of which, Zhao Gan's position of power is indeed above the elders.

He said that he has no eyes, but he is not wrong.

However, the young patriarch is not a patriarch after all, he has no real power, and he has to rely on the elders for many things.

But that's what Zhao Qian did, and he was rightly arrogant.

Zhao Qiu's face turned red and white, and after a while, he suddenly smiled, got up and bowed to Zhao Qian, and said:

"It's me who was rude, I've seen the young patriarch!"

Zhao Qian laughed and said, "Seventh Uncle, I'm just joking with you, why be so serious!"

"Are you kidding?"

Zhao Qiu was slandered, but he didn't dare to dwell on it after suffering a loss, he looked at the Great Elder, and hurriedly said:

"Now that the resolution has been passed, it's time to elect the next patriarch candidate, right?

According to the clan rules, each elder can nominate a candidate, and more than half of the votes can become a candidate, and then a general election will be held, and the one with the highest number of votes will take over as the patriarch!"

He looked at Zhao Qian again and said with a smile: "Originally, the young patriarch could automatically become one of the candidates, but since the young patriarch has resigned, then..."

Zhao Qian nodded: "I'm a man who counts his words, just resign, and when you're done, let's go through the formalities!"

Zhao Qiu laughed: "Okay, okay, then I will throw bricks and lead the jade, the so-called virtuous do not avoid relatives, the candidate I proposed is my son Zhao Guang!"

You also know that this kid has good qualifications, and now he is a half-step fairyland, which is much stronger than my old man.

Moreover, a few years ago, he also won the first place in the experience of the clan, and in recent years, he has been responsible for external liaison matters, and has a good relationship with many families, whether it is cultivation or experience, it is first-class. ”

With that, he smiled and raised his hand and looked around.

For this matter, he had already made sufficient preparations and communicated with many elders in advance, so the vote for this candidate was naturally stable.

But after a while, Zhao Qiu's face changed...

In addition to him, among the seventeen elders, two of them raised their arms after a long time, and even the eighth elder, Zhao Xu, who drank and had fun with him every day, did not respond.

The Great Elder looked around with a smile and said, "If you don't have any other opinions, the candidate proposed by the Second Elder will be rejected!"

"Wait!"

Zhao Qiu was in a hurry and hurriedly shouted.

The Great Elder smiled lightly: "What's the matter, according to the clan rules, except for the proposer, the remaining seventeen people have to get nine votes before the candidate can pass, and now there are only two votes, what else do you have to say, Second Elder?"

Zhao Qian also smiled and said: "Seventh uncle, all the elders are clear-eyed people, as the saying goes, mud can't support the wall, with your son's virtue, you still want to spy on the position of the patriarch?" It's just a joke." ”

Zhao Qiu's teeth clucked, but he only made a sound when he was in a hurry, the clan rules were here, but where did he really make sense.

Seeing that he was speechless, the Great Elder did not say a word of mockery, but pointed at Zhao Gan and said, "I also have a candidate, which is the son of the previous patriarch, Zhao Gan!"

Zhao Qiu's face changed, and he said angrily: "Great Elder, what are you kidding, hasn't he just resigned from the position of young patriarch?"

Zhao Qianqi said: "Seventh uncle, aren't you joking? I'm going to be the patriarch, so what else is there to be a young patriarch?"

Zhao Qiu sneered: "Patriarch, who would choose you as the patriarch of a little guy who has never broken through the world? You... You guys..."

Before he could finish speaking, all around, Qi Shushu's arms were raised.

Except for the proposer and him and the other two elders, the other fourteen elders had their arms straight, as if they were afraid that they would be left behind.

Zhao Qiu was dumbfounded, pointed at them and said, "Are you all crazy?

The Great Elder smiled at the head of the head and said, "The clan rules don't say that the position of the patriarch still needs to be verified for the cultivation realm, what's wrong with mortals?"

The so-called leader does not need to fight in person, what matters is mental skill, resourcefulness and the way of employing people.

Zhao Gan's ability to be recognized by so many elders means that his popularity and character are obvious to all, and it is naturally logical to become a candidate for patriarch!"

"Popularity and character? Why is he qualified to talk about these two words? In the past five years, why have you not counted Aunt Bo in your heart?

Kunlun Academy was almost demolished by him, which of those wealthy disciples who studied in the same academy was not offended by him?

Last year, he went to Digong Mountain to set off fireworks, and half of the thirty-two hills were lit by him, have you forgotten?

Also, in the Hundred Flowers Building, which of the girls who are water spirit points have not slept with him? It makes us uncles embarrassed to go, how much less fun is Xiansheng?"

Zhao Qiu's face was pale, and he roared wildly in his heart.

You must know that among the eighteen elders, in addition to the Great Elder and Zhao Yucai's descendants, a total of ten have already reached an alliance with him.

Among them, there are eight people who have received a lot of benefits, and Zhao Xu is his friend of life and death, who is a sworn friend who can trust each other in the extraterritorial battlefield.

But now, except for the two elders who were at the bottom of the ranking, the rest of them all betrayed.

"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Zhao Qiu's teeth clucked, and he secretly pressed the Xianxun bracelet.

......

Deep underneath the ancestral house, there is a huge underground structure.

A dark figure walked through a pitch-black corridor.

After a while, a gate with a faint silver light appeared in front of it.

He looked up, carefully recognized the seal on the gate, then slit his wrist and sprinkled his blood on a wheel-sized pattern in the center of the gate.

After a while, the formation pattern flashed with blood-colored light, and then, the gate slowly opened, and a biting chill rushed over the face.

The black shadow had already bowed and bowed outside the door, and the words were in his mouth, and after a long time, he got up and walked in.

Behind the door, there is a dark space, and in the center is a tall ice coffin, inside the ice coffin, there is an old man with white eyebrows and goosebumps, and his chest is still slightly undulating, but the frequency is very low.

Around the ice coffin, there were formations set up, and on each array, piles of immortal stones were placed, which were attracted by the formations and turned into pure aura, nourishing the old man's body.

The black shadow knelt down in front of the ice coffin, slit his wrist again, and sprinkled it on a formation in front of him.

A bloody light flashed, the ice coffin trembled slightly, and the old man's eyes slowly opened...
