Dragon Clan, Lu Mingfei wants to reach a perfect ending

Chapter 33: The Emperor of the Sheqi Family Returns, Uesugi Yue Returns with His Dominance (8)

"Who are you and how dare you barge in here at such a serious moment!" Akechi Asuya, the head of the Kanto branch in the front row, stood up and questioned Uesugi Yue who was standing at the door.

The ceremony is only held in this shrine when a major event occurs in the Snake Eight Families or when a summary of the year is made. This is the most sacred place in the entire Snake Eight Families.

All the people from the eight Snake families who were qualified to participate in the Shinto meetings respected this very much. They wore the most solemn kimonos, adhered to the most ancient underworld etiquette, and came with respect in their hearts.

But at this moment, a disheveled man pushed open the door of the shrine in the rain and glanced at everyone present with such disrespectful eyes. It was unforgivable.

Uesugi Etsu did not answer Meiji Asuya's question, his eyes fell on the interior decoration of the shrine.

The inner wall is covered with Ukiyo-e paintings, which are carefully and skillfully painted. A battle between demons, gods and ghosts is portrayed vividly. The eyes of the ghosts are shining brightly in the candlelight, and they look ferociously at everyone who looks directly at the painting.

Familiar, all of this is so familiar in Uesugi Yue's memory. After all, this is where he has lived for decades.

After a brief recollection of the past, in the quiet atmosphere of the shrine, Uesugi Yue finally turned his attention to Akechi Asuya, but instead of answering his question, he praised him.

"I am very happy that among the Sheqi Eight Clan, which has been in decline for decades, there are still people who respect tradition so much."

Uesugi Yue walked in, his wet shoes leaving a series of marks on the waxed floor of the shrine, and the creaking sound of the wooden boards echoed in everyone's ears.

"But I really don't like the tone you used when talking to me. Remember to change it next time."

Uesugi Yue was like an emperor, giving him orders casually with an extremely casual attitude, making everyone present feel as if Uesugi Yue was giving orders to a dog.

"Looking for death." Akechi Asuya's eyes condensed, and his golden pupils opened instantly. He rushed towards Uesugi Yue at an extraordinary speed, using his palm as a blade, wanting to cut off Uesugi Yue's head with one blow.

“If you regret anything, just go to hell and talk to the god of death.” Akechi Asuya’s figure turned into a shadow, and his golden pupils were filled with anger towards Uesugi Yue’s disrespect.

Uesugi Yue's fine hair covered his eyes, and the people present could not see his expression at the moment.

Of course, the family heads would not care about this hybrid who suddenly broke in. They were just shocked at first by his disrespect for the shrine.

However, Akechi Asuya's attack was so close, but Uesugi Yue had no reaction at all.

This meant that he was just a half-blood with some strength, but not much, and somehow he managed to break through the defenses of the people outside the shrine.

But no matter what, he was about to become a corpse, and a corpse was not worthy of their attention.

But Tachibana Masamune, who was sitting on the high seat in the center, was staring closely at Uesugi Yue, whose expression could not be seen clearly. A hint of solemnity flashed in his old eyes.

"Hahaha..." A laugh was heard, making everyone present frown. The source of the laughter was Uesugi Yue, who was standing there and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"It seems that I have not appeared for a long time. Now even a dog dares to attack me. How disrespectful!" Uesugi Yue's laughter stopped abruptly, and what followed was his anger like a volcanic eruption.

An invisible aura of a mafia overlord suddenly spread out in all directions, pressing down on everyone's hearts, making them feel their breathing suddenly become heavy.

The next moment, Akechi Asuya, who was about to cut off Uesugi Koshi's head, suddenly stopped, like a machine that was forced to shut down, and stayed in the air in an extremely stiff posture.

The instigator of all this is the disheveled man in front of him.

At the last moment, Uesugi Yue grabbed Akechi Asuya's neck, and as easily as an eagle catching a chick, he grabbed Akechi Asuya and lifted him into the air.

He applied slight force with his palm and heard a "crackling" sound from Akechi Asuya's neck. His face instantly turned purple, like a man who was about to drown.

He grabbed Uesugi Yue's hands with both hands, trying to use his strength to pry his hands apart, but in the face of Uesugi Yue's Tyrannosaurus-like strength, all these futile attempts were like a joke.

"Life is a precious commodity. For the wise, it is extremely long, but for a foolish person like you, it is extremely short." Uesugi Yue's voice was contemptuous.

He did not choose to kill Akechi Asuya, but threw him aside like a piece of trash. The heavy object fell to the floor with a "bang" and rolled several times before stopping.

"But you are lucky. There are children here today, so it is not easy to see blood. So I will spare your life."

"But remember, a dog should behave like a dog. Don't bark recklessly in front of its owner. Otherwise, you never know when you might lose your life."

Uesugi Yue's contemptuous attitude aroused the anger of everyone, and the head of the Fuma family, Fuma Kotaro, was the first to stand up.

As the former leader of the Five Outer Families and the head of the combat organization Fuma Family, he should be the one to stand up and fight the enemy at this moment. When he stood up, a golden light suddenly burst into his old eyes.

As he stood up, the elite members of the Eight Clans of Sheqi behind him and in the last few rows also lit up. They were like a pack of ferocious wolves, wanting to devour Uesugi Yue who was in the middle.

"If you want to show off your power at the shrine meeting of the Eight Snake Families, then I can only tell you that you have come to the wrong place, and the price you need to pay for it is your life."

Fuma Kotaro's old eyes were fixed on Uesugi Yue who was standing in the center. His eyes contained the calmness of an old man and the ferocity of a wolf king.

What might have happened next was a fierce battle, but in fact, this did not happen because the head patriarch, Tachibana Masamune, spoke out to prevent the battle from breaking out.

"Dear parents, there is no need to get into a fighting state. He is not our enemy." The words spoken by the patriarch Masamune Tachibana aroused everyone's doubts and also stopped the battle that was about to break out.

Everyone looked at the patriarch in the center with puzzled eyes, wanting to get an answer from him.

And Tachibana Masamune told them the truth in his next words.

"Lord Uesugi is not our enemy. I'm sure you can tell from the name that Lord Uesugi is closely related to the Uesugi family."

Tachibana Masamune's words were earth-shattering. The eight families of Snake Qi followed a very ancient family system, and the status of the patriarch was so respected that the younger generations did not even have the opportunity to pay a visit to Mr. Tachibana Masamune on ordinary days.

Even the seniors, or the adults in charge of a branch, and the heads of respected families, all showed great respect to Mr. Tachibana Masamune.

And now Mr. Tachibana Masamune actually called this disrespectful person Lord Uesugi Kotsu. How could they not be shocked?

Tachibana Masamune did not stop because of the shock of the crowd. He continued, "Lord Uesugi Koto was the former head of the Uesugi family and the last emperor of the Snake Eight Clan, the Shadow Emperor."

"And what I am eager to inform the eight families of Sheqi is that since the former emperor of the eight families of Sheqi has returned, I am also ready to abdicate since I should not have occupied this position."

"Let the most qualified Lord Uesugi Kotsu be the new head of the family."

As Tachibana Masamune finished speaking, the entire shrine fell silent. Even the faintest sound of breathing could be heard at this moment.

"I don't agree!" At this moment, a voice came from the seat of the head of the family. It was not the head of the Fuma family, Fuma Kotaro, who had stood up before, but the head of the Inuyama family, Inuyama He, who had been sitting there like a mascot.

The other family heads had the same idea as Inuyama He, but what they didn't know was why Inuyama He was so fiercely and firmly opposed to this idea.

Inuyama He stood up. He was also an old man who had survived World War II. Although his hair was dyed silver-gray, his old eyes were as sharp as swords, piercing straight at Uesugi Koshi.

"Why don't you agree?" Uesugi Yue was a little curious at this moment. He didn't understand why the white-haired head of the Inuyama family in front of him would oppose him.

"Because you don't deserve it." Inuyama He only replied with a simple sentence, looking at Uesugi Yue with hatred in his eyes.

The rage of this hatred was so intense that anyone who saw Inuyama He's gaze could feel it personally, but what was even more surprising was that when had the seemingly kind-hearted head of the Inuyama family, Inuyama He, ever had any hatred towards the strange head of the Uesugi family?

But since Inuyama He has expressed his attitude, the heads of other families have also expressed their attitudes one by one, "We all disagree. You are the best head of the family in our hearts."

Hearing their similar opinions, Uesugi Yue was not angry, nor did he have any other emotions.

Because he knew that among the Eight Clans of Sheqi, words were weak and powerless, and only the weak would rely on weak words to gain benefits for themselves.

As a strong person, the only thing you need to rely on is your own strength, and then use this strength to snatch the interests of the weak. This is the true rule of the Eight Snake Families that has remained unchanged since ancient times.

I am an irredeemably strong person, but unfortunately, these people are just incompetent weaklings.

"Oh, tell me why I am not worthy of being the head of the family. If it makes sense, I might consider sparing your life." Uesugi Yue was not in a hurry to regain the position of head of the family.

The position regained in that way would be nothing more than an empty shell, completely useless and would not play any role in Lu Mingfei's plan.

He wanted to use his unparalleled strength to suppress them and make these family heads understand the truth that power is always greater than words. Only then would the Eight Snake Families be under his control.
