I'm really a villain

Precisely because Jiang Shoutian is still young, he will have to stay as the clan leader for a very long time.

When he chose the junior patriarch, he hoped to let his son Jiang Rui, who had no ambition, take this position.

After all, you don't need to be too defensive.

The other sons were all deep-minded.

You have to know that in ancient times, if someone served as a crown prince for decades, he would probably go crazy and usurp the throne.

And if other sons become the junior patriarch, they will definitely be eyeing the position of patriarch.

This will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.

This is also why Jiang Shoutian must make Jiang Rui the young patriarch.

Because this son has no ambition and is easy to control.

Of course, the only bad thing is that without much ambition, there comes little ability.

The position of the future Patriarch of the Sky-Xun Clan must not be given to this son.

If that happens, the entire race will be doomed.

Jiang Shoutian is not the one who doesn't even understand this.

But at this stage, Jiang Rui is undoubtedly the best candidate for the position of young patriarch.

.........

After leaving the hall.

When Xu Zimo walked outside, the Black Mountain Demon was already waiting for him.

The two of them went to the residence in advance, found out the location, and then came to pick up Xu Zimo.

This also ensures that Xu Zimo does not know where he lives, thus revealing his flaws.

"Young Patriarch, what should we do next?" asked the Black Mountain Demon in a low voice.

Xu Zimo pondered for a moment.

He said: "In the next few days, you will first find out the map of Xuntian Mansion. You are my servants, so it should be very convenient for you to act. No one will dare to make things difficult for you."

"We will study it again after we find out more."

Hearing Xu Zimo's words, the Black Mountain Old Demon nodded quickly.

Back to the residence.

The place where Jiang Rui lives is really nice.

It is considered one of the blessed places.

After all, he is the nominal young patriarch of the Xuntian clan, so he can't be shabby at all.

The place where Jiang Rui lives is not just a courtyard or a few houses.

It is an enormous complex of buildings.

There are at least hundreds of rooms, and there are almost tens of thousands of slaves and maids here.

This complex of buildings is equivalent to a sect of a small force.

There are various places for cultivation, alchemy and even a library.

It can be seen that the facilities are complete and very exquisite.

Anything you can think of is perfectly arranged here.

After walking through the tree-lined path and crossing dozens of quiet corridors, Xu Zimo returned to his original room.

He actually doesn't care about the convenience and trouble brought by this identity.

All he needs to do is let him find out the secret of how the Sky Patrol Clan collects the Origin Beads.

He had a hunch that the old lady might be one of the breakthrough points.

For the next few days, Xu Zimo stayed at home.

Originally, he wanted to find someone who could translate the old texts to translate the Sutra of the Wheel of Time in his hand.

But then I thought, there are too many people in Xuntian Mansion and too many eyes.

Some things should be kept low-key.

It would be more reassuring to find someone from outside as much as possible.

So that morning, Xu Zimo left the room and prepared to walk out of Xuntian Mansion and visit the old library.

In fact, he’s been hiding pretty well these days.

No one noticed his abnormality.

When Xu Zimo walked out of the building where he lived and was about to leave, someone suddenly stopped him halfway.

"Brother, it's been a long time!"

The person who stopped him was a handsome young man.

The young man was dressed in white, had long hair, a tall figure and a handsome face.

He had a three-foot-long sword on his waist.

He stood in front of Xu Zimo, with a cold smile on his face.

Xu Zimo has learned more about Xuntian Mansion over the past few days, although he cannot guarantee the details.

But he already knew the general situation.

The original body had two younger brothers and one younger sister.

These three are the ones who are competing most fiercely for the position of young patriarch.

The young man in white before him was his third brother, named Jiang Bin.

He has great talent and is said to have made a name for himself in Wangtianjiao.

Moreover, he truly relied on his own strength to make his way through, not on the power of the Patrol Sky Clan.

Jiang Rui doesn’t have a good relationship with his younger brothers.

The main reason is actually because of the dispute over the position of young patriarch.

The few of them rarely contacted each other, so Jiang Bin took the initiative to say hello.

Xu Zimo also replied symbolically: "It's been a while since we last met. I heard that you went out to gain experience."

"I just got back and came to visit big brother," Jiang Bin said with a smile.

"I heard that Big Brother's position as Young Clan Leader seemed to have been dismissed by Dad?"

As soon as he heard this, Xu Zimo knew that he was here to inquire about the news.

After all, because of the affairs of the Zhudi clan, we have to save face.

Although Jiang Shoutian did not make a clear announcement, what he said before was also revealed.

So much so that many people spread rumors.

But they didn't dare to really question Jiang Shoutian, so they could only ask Jiang Rui.

Looking at Jiang Bin's inquiring eyes.

Xu Zimo smiled faintly.

Said: "No, it's not true, you are overthinking it."

"If you don't believe me, you can go ask Dad yourself."

Jiang Bin's eyes darkened slightly.

He just sneered.

Said: "Brother, I may have some news to tell you."

"I heard that the Saintess of the Qinglian Clan whom you insulted originally had a husband."

"After this incident happened, her husband also disappeared. I advise you not to leave the family during this period."

"Lest something unexpected happen, we won't even have a chance to save ourselves."

"Second brother, you'd better take care of yourself," Xu Zimo said calmly.

"If you really like to worry about others like this, when I become the clan leader in the future, I will let you be the chief steward of Xuntian Mansion, how about that?"

"You..." Jiang Bin was a little angry.

When did my elder brother become so sharp-tongued?

He snorted coldly and said calmly: "We'll see at the birthday banquet."

It can be seen that Xu Zimo has placed all his hopes on the old lady's birthday banquet, and the other people are not much behind.

Another issue is the affiliation of the saint of the Zhudi clan.

Whoever can marry her may be able to secure the position of young clan leader, or even the future clan leader.

.........

After separating from Jiang Bin, Xu Zimo headed towards the old library.

However, before going out, an old man was waiting for Xu Zimo at the door.

He called himself the Sky-Poison Demon and was a worshiper of the Xuntian Palace.

Knowing that Xu Zimo was going out, he deliberately followed the guardian.

It wasn't so special before, but it seems that the people in Xuntian Mansion are also afraid of revenge from the husband of the Saint of the Qinglian Clan.

This guardian was specially arranged.

Xu Zimo was actually quite happy and relaxed, as he no longer had to do anything himself.

He looked in the direction of the old library.

There was no hiding of his whereabouts along the way.

The main reason is his face. I guess there are few people in Wangtianjiao who don’t recognize him.

.........

In the crowded streets.

There are several figures hidden in it.
