Hearing the Great Elder's words, the two siblings Lan Ruoxi and Lan Hao burst into tears.
Finally, it worked!
"Thank you, Great Elder."
The two siblings quickly thanked each other.
Jiang Feng also smiled slightly. After Lan Hao succeeds as the head of the Lan family, his 30 spirit crystals will be credited to the account.
30, if there is another wave of sacrifices, a million will be less.
At that time, it should be enough to support myself to cultivate to the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage.
No, it can even reach the stage of transforming gods.
From now on, it's none of Jiang Feng's business.
Just need to wait until the succession ceremony three days later.
During these three days, Jiang Feng also stayed at Lan's house, slowly waiting.
Soon, it was the night of the second day.
Tomorrow is Lan Hao's succession ceremony.
"Huh? Is there any movement?"
Jiang Feng, who was practicing on the bed in the room, opened his eyes suddenly.
His powerful perception sensed the sound of battle coming from the east of Lan Mansion.
Jiang Feng subconsciously rushed towards Lan Hao and Lan Ruoxi, but found nothing.
He originally wanted to check the situation, but worried that this was a way to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
So she didn't move, staying here to protect Lan Ruoxi and Lan Hao.
It didn't take long for the sound of fighting to end.
Soon, there was a commotion in the Lan family.
Jiang Feng soon heard clearly, someone was shouting, the Great Elder is dead!
"Elder is dead?"
Jiang Feng frowned.
He has the impression that the elder of the Lan family is a very old man.
Although he is an old man, his cultivation is not low. Jiang Feng guessed that he is definitely the strongest in the entire Lan family.
At least have the cultivation base of the middle stage of transformation.
Of course, Jiang Feng didn't know the specifics either. After all, he didn't know much about Xiuxian's theory of knowledge.
For those with lower cultivation bases, he can tell.
But for a strong man with a high cultivation base, he really can't see it.
It can only be roughly felt from their powerful aura.
However, how could this Great Elder die?
Soon, Lan Ruoxi and Lan Hao were also awakened, and they ran towards the residence of the Great Elder.
Jiang Feng naturally followed.
Soon, he saw the situation of the great elder of the Lan family.
His body was covered in purple, he must have been poisoned, and the fatal injury was a sword piercing through his heart.
In addition to the corpse of the great elder of the Lan family, there were several corpses of men in black at the scene.
After removing the mask, there were all unfamiliar faces.
Soon Jiang Feng figured it out.
Someone must have poisoned him. After the Great Elder was poisoned, he survived by relying on his powerful cultivation.
Thus, the person who poisoned him launched a siege against the great elder.
The great elder was poisoned, and his strength was greatly reduced. Finally, after killing several men in black, he finally couldn't hold on, and was stabbed through the heart with a sword.
Even the Primordial Spirit with him was wiped out.
Jiang Feng could clearly see that the expressions of Lan Ruoxi and Lan Hao were gloomy for a while.
It can be said that the Great Elder is now their biggest backing.
The Great Elder was assassinated the night before the succession ceremony. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that there must be something wrong.
Chapter 407
That night, the entire Lan family was dispatched, trying to investigate who had assassinated the Great Elder.
But it was only one night, and nothing could be found out.
Jiang Feng didn't care about this matter, he only needed to be responsible for protecting Lan Hao and Lan Ruoxi.
The next day, early in the morning, Jiang Feng withdrew from his cultivation state.
He heard a commotion, and the sound of fireworks.
Although the Great Elder was assassinated yesterday, today is the succession ceremony of the Patriarch, so it is still necessary to show such joy.
Otherwise, if outsiders saw it, wouldn't they make fun of his Lan family?
"Young Master Jiang, I feel that this patriarch's succession ceremony will not be peaceful. The second uncle and the others have been quiet for the past few days. Yesterday, the Great Elder was assassinated again. I always have an ominous premonition."
Lan Ruoxi approached Jiang Feng and said softly.
"There is indeed a problem, but it's okay, the soldiers will come and cover it with water and soil."
Jiang Feng comforted with a smile.
It's useless to think too much now, it's better to wait until the other party uses their means, and then they can find a way to deal with it.
When Lan Ruoxi heard this, she could only nod her head.
Next, the succession ceremony was carried out according to the normal process, and there were no surprises.
Until the end, when the elder master of ceremonies who was in charge of hosting was about to announce that Lan Hao had officially become the head of the Lan family and presented a token of the head of the family.
Suddenly, a group of people broke in.
The leader is Lan Hongfu, the second master of the Lan family.
Jiang Feng's eyes flashed, and his steps moved forward slightly, blocking in front of Lan Hao and Lan Ruoxi.
Once the opponent wants to make a move, he can react quickly.
"Hong Fu, what do you want to do? At the beginning, the result of our discussions was that Hao'er or Yu'er would win the position of Patriarch. Now the result is out, and the succession ceremony has already begun."
"What else do you want to do?"
The elder master of ceremonies frowned and asked with some displeasure.
Now is an important time, with so many outsiders watching, if Lan Hongfu makes trouble at this time, the Lan family will become the laughing stock of Floating Cloud City.
"Hmph, you don't have to be so nervous. Since it's something that was discussed at the beginning, I will naturally not change it. If you want that boy Lan Hao to be the head of the family, then let him do it. I came here this time because of another matter. thing."
Lan Hongfu sneered.
His words stunned Lan Ruoxi and the others.
"what's up?"
The elder master of ceremonies continued to ask.
"Separate!"
Swish!
As soon as Lan Hongfu said these two words, the expressions of Lan Ruoxi, Lan Hao and some Lan family members present all changed.
Separating a family is no small matter. The Lan family has stood in Floating Cloud City for hundreds of years, and finally became one of the four major families.
Dividing the family means splitting the family, and the Lan family will definitely suffer serious damage at that time.
Falling out of the ranks of the four major families is easy, but it is more serious to be targeted by the hostile forces of the Lan family, or even go bankrupt.
Lan Ruoxi frowned when she heard this, and said in a cold voice.
"Second Uncle, do you know that dividing a family is a felony? If you do this, where will you leave the ancestors of the Lan family?"
"Hmph, little girl, it's not your turn to teach me a lesson!"
Lan Hongfu glared at Lan Ruoxi, which made Lan Ruoxi tremble in fright.
After all, Lan Hongfu is a monk in the late Yuanying period, even if it is just a look, it is a great deterrent to ordinary people like Lan Ruoxi.
But soon, Jiang Feng stood in front of Lan Ruoxi, and looked at Na Lan Hongfu instead of her.
Jiang Feng's sharp gaze directly overwhelmed Lan Hongfu.
Lan Hongfu couldn't help but feel a palpitation when he thought of the opponent punching him in the ring before.
Subconsciously, he turned his eyes away, not daring to look at Jiang Feng.
"I don't want to separate the family either, but Lan Hao is only 15 years old, so let him take the position of the head of the family and be in charge of many family affairs. The Lan family will definitely not fall under his hands. We should consider how to deal with the ancestors. Yes, it should be you."
"I couldn't bear to see the Lan family destroyed in that kid's hands, that's why I proposed the separation of the family. I believe that I am not the only one present here who has this idea."
"If anyone has this kind of thought, they can stand up and separate with me. I believe that under my leadership, you will definitely have a better life than before!"
Lan Hongfu continued.
And not long after he finished speaking, members of the Lan family stood up one by one on the scene and walked towards Lan Hongfu.
They are all collateral clansmen of the Lan family, and at some point, they were bought by Lan Hongfu.
It should be that Lan Hongfu promised that after the separation, he would give them corresponding benefits.
As soon as these collateral clansmen left, most of the people standing on Lan Hao and Lan Ruoxi's side were lost.
Only some elders and priests who were originally neutral were still on their side.
