Strongest replication

After the last Supreme Elder took his seat, an old man with slightly gray hair but good spirits walked into the meeting hall with a gentle expression.

After seeing the white-haired old men sitting on the right and left sides, the old man walked into the hall and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"

"Great Elder, is this how you should treat us old people who have contributed their youth to the family?" When he saw the old men entering the meeting hall, he not only did not take the initiative to salute them, but directly asked them why they came, and went up Chu Xingping, the Supreme Elder in charge of family punishment, asked dissatisfiedly.

"I've met your uncles!" Facing the Third Supreme Elder's question, the Great Elder's expression did not change at all, and his tone of voice was even more indifferent.

"Third uncle, I have already performed the courtesy. Now should you explain to me the reason why you are here!" After greeting, the great elder continued to ask unkindly.

Although the great elder doesn't care much about family affairs, he pays a lot of attention to matters related to Chu Zhongtian. He knew that today's meeting was about how Chu Zhongtian distributed the spoils of war and the Chu family's next development plan.

And these previous elders, who had long since stopped caring about world affairs, came to the meeting hall in unison, probably with the purpose of grabbing part of the share in the subsequent distribution of benefits, which made the great elder very dissatisfied.

"Great Elder, these uncles were specially invited by me. Because today's issue is related to the future of our Chu family, these experienced elders must supervise it to prevent us from taking the wrong path!" Faced with the question from the Great Elder, everyone present Before the eight Supreme Elders could explain, Chu Tianyun's loud voice came from the outer door of the living room.

"Oh, it turns out he was invited by the clan leader!" As the elder with the highest level of alchemy in the family, he rarely pays attention to family affairs and doesn't know much about the methods of fighting for power, so Chu Tianyun's explanation made him very surprised. convince.

At the same time, he also gave up investigating the reason why the Supreme Elders came.

Seeing the great elder's change of attitude, Chu Fan, who was sitting in the second row on the right, was secretly worried. If Chu Zhongtian wants to win today's power grab, he must get the full support of two people. The first is Chu Zhengxuan, the strongest person in the family, and the second is the highly prestigious elder.

As long as these two people fully support Chu Zhongtian, it may not be easy for the patriarch Chu Tianyun to rely on the prestige of the eight supreme elders to suppress Chu Zhongtian.

After the great elder and Chu Tianyun were seated, seven younger generation family members and six younger generation family members appeared at the door of the meeting hall at the same time.

Seeing the elite disciple who suddenly appeared at the door of the meeting hall, the third elder in charge of family punishment shouted with a gloomy face.

"Today is the family's monthly meeting, what are you people doing here!"

"Replying to the third elder, we have received an order from the young patriarch to attend today's regular meeting!" Facing the third elder's black face like an iron pot, Chu Yuping responded without any fear.

"It turns out it was the young patriarch's arrangement!" The anger of the third elder who was originally angry disappeared instantly when he heard that it was Chu Zhongtian's arrangement.

"Except for the Zhongba who can participate in today's regular meeting, the remaining disciples will leave here temporarily!" Seeing the third elder retreating on his own initiative, the patriarch Chu Tianyun was very dissatisfied. At the same time, he also decided that after he took over the power of the family, he would find a way to replace the third elder who was just a loser.

However, this is not the time to consider replacing the third elder, but how to deal with the dozen or so young family members standing outside the door.

Chu Zhongba was his only son and the first choice to succeed him as the heir to the clan leader in the future. It was reasonable and reasonable for him to be exposed to family affairs in advance. As for the young children of other families, it is not their turn to attend the regular family meetings.

"Why, you want to disobey the clan leader's order!" Seeing Chu Yuping and others standing motionless at the door, an outer elder who had secretly taken refuge with Chu Tianyun threatened in a sinister tone.

Facing the threats from the outer sect elders, none of the dozen or so young disciples standing at the door showed any fear or expression of fear on their faces. They stood there with calm expressions.

"Third elder, according to the rules of the Chu family. If you don't obey the clan leader's order, what should be the punishment?" Looking at the young disciple who was not at all disrespectful to him, the elder of the outer sect who took the initiative to talk seemed to be insulted. His face was gloomy and he gritted his teeth. Asked the third elder.

"According to the family rules, disrespecting the clan elders will abolish the cultivation and expel the family!" The third elder who is proficient in the family rules subconsciously said the clan rules when he heard someone interrogating him about the clan rules, but when he reacted At that time, I regretted it endlessly.

Didn't his answer just now clearly offend Chu Zhongtian? It was not in line with the policy he had set out from the beginning!

Seven days ago, Chu Tianyun came to him in private to discuss the distribution of benefits. The third elder knew that he wanted to start a power struggle with Chu Zhongtian.

Whether it is Chu Tianyun, the patriarch who has been in charge of the family for more than ten years and whose kindness has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, or Chu Zhongtian, who has extraordinary qualifications and powerful strength, the third elder does not want to offend, he just protects himself wisely.

Therefore, in the face of Chu Tianyun's recruitment, he could only use vague words to deal with it, and he has maintained this attitude about what happened today.

However, these young men standing at the door of the meeting hall were all people who admired Chu Zhongtian extremely. His subconscious answer just now was obviously biased towards the clan leader in the eyes of outsiders, which was contrary to his original intention.

After hearing the reply from the third elder, the angry outer elder stood up directly and walked towards Chu Yuping and others standing at the door with a grim smile on his face.

"Wu Xinghua, what do you want to do?" The elder who was originally sitting at the top right of the second row, closing his eyes to rest, realized that today's regular meeting was a little unusual after Chu Yuping and others appeared.

When he heard that the clan leader left Chu Zhongba alone and drove away Chu Yuping, who was closest to Chu Zhongtian, he already felt that something was wrong.

When the foreign elders actually used the clan rules to attack the young disciples, he finally understood what was going on, and also understood why Chu Tianyun invited the eight supreme elders who had not been involved in worldly affairs for many years, in order to fight for power today.

The Great Elder felt sorry for Chu Tianyun's short-sighted behavior, and was even more angry at Elder Wu who wanted to use clan rules to deal with young disciples.

Facing Elder Wu who walked towards Chu Yuping with a grim smile, the Great Elder shouted and stood up directly.
