Shen Zhao, who transmigrated into the Immortal Martial Continent, was forced by the system to humbly fawn over the Empress for nine lifetimes.
However, what he thought was true love that coul...
Feng Xiuhua raised her head high, her gaze sweeping over the main hall with an imposing air.
At that moment, she seemed to feel capable again.
As long as Huang Qi stands by her side, she is not afraid of these clansmen's threats.
Once Huang Feng is placed in the position of young master, we can discuss with Huang Qi increasing the annual supply of spiritual items from the Huang family to Qifeng Mountain. This will fully compensate for the loss caused by losing the support of these five family heads.
The so-called position of young master is just an empty shell. Huang Feng is dull-witted and easily manipulated, posing no threat to his position in the clan.
Just as Feng Xiuhua was gloating over her own plans, Huang Qi spoke up.
"Great Clan Chief, thank you for your kindness to my son, but may I please allow you to explain the purpose of my visit?"
"Alright, Patriarch Huang, please speak your mind."
Huang Qi immediately cupped his hands and replied, "The first thing I want to say is that the Huang family, a branch of the Fire Phoenix lineage, should support Su Yunying as the young master of Qifeng Mountain!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiuhua's expression instantly froze.
"Patriarch Huang, what did you say? Whom do you intend to enthrone as the young master of Qifeng Mountain?"
She was filled with disbelief, completely unable to understand why Huang Qi would suddenly support Su Yunying as the young master when she had already shown such great sincerity.
Wasn't he always hoping that Huang Feng would become the young master?
Shen Zhao glanced at Feng Xiuhua's expression and couldn't help but chuckle.
What's the reason?
Naturally, what you gave was far less than what I gave.
"My Huang family fully supports Su Yunying as the young master of Qifeng Mountain, and we only recognize her as the young master of the Fire Phoenix Clan!"
Huang Qi's resounding reply echoed throughout the main hall.
The other five family heads were tacitly aware of this; Huang Qi had already discussed it with them last night, and they were going to play around with this old woman here.
"No, I won't allow it! Su Yunying absolutely cannot become the young master of Qifeng Mountain!"
Realizing what was happening, Feng Xiuhua immediately banged on her cane and shouted.
"Unless I agree, Su Yunying can forget about taking the position of young master!"
Shen Zhao's eyes immediately turned cold.
At this moment, Feng Xiuhua was already a dead person in his eyes.
"disagree?"
Huang Qi sneered.
"If the clan leader insists on going his own way, then from this day forward, my Huang family will no longer provide any spiritual resources to Qifeng Mountain."
Before Feng Xiuhua could react, the other five family heads also began to express their opinions.
“Our Wang family only recognizes Su Yunying as the young master of Qifeng Mountain. If not, from this day forward, the Wang family will refuse to provide Qifeng Mountain with a single penny of resources.”
"My Qian family seconded that."
"My Li family is the same."
"My Mo family seconded that proposal."
"My Yan family is the same."
In an instant, Feng Xiuhua became the target of public criticism.
With all six family heads standing against him, what could he do?
Given the influence of these branch families, once the Fire Phoenix Clan members scattered throughout the Southern Regions learn of this, they will certainly no longer be able to pay tribute on time every year as before.
Where is the prestige of Qifeng Mountain?
Can I continue to be the clan leader?
Thinking about this, she felt a little scared.
"Are you going to disobey the ancestral teachings of the Fire Phoenix?"
This is the only means she can currently use to threaten these family heads.
However, this rule seemed utterly ridiculous to these self-interested clansmen.
Huang Qi: "Clan leader, we have made ourselves clear enough. The young master of Qifeng Mountain must be Su Yunying!"
Feng Xiuhua suddenly felt weak all over and staggered to sit down in the clan leader's seat.
The hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone was waiting for Feng Xiuhua to make a statement.
Finally, Feng Xiuhua sighed and said, "Alright, I agree. I will appoint Su Yunying as the young master of Qifeng Mountain!"
"Let's put this in writing as proof and hand over the young master's command!"
Huang Qi mentioned it expressionlessly.
Feng Xiuhua suppressed the urge to tear Huang Qi apart and had no choice but to take out the Phoenix Pen and write down the decree appointing Su Yunying as the young master of Qifeng, and then stamp it with the clan leader's seal.
At the same time, he placed a palm-sized Phoenix Cloud Seal along with the imperial edict in Huang Qi's hand.
After doing all this, Feng Xiuhua felt completely exhausted.
"So, are you satisfied now?"
After Huang Qi examined the edict and the seal and confirmed that they were correct, he handed them over to the other family heads.
After everyone had verified the authenticity, they all nodded to Chen Zhao.
Shen Zhao raised his wine gourd as a gesture, then leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Huang Qi cleared his throat and continued, "The second thing I want to say is that Feng Xiuhua, as the clan leader, has failed to fulfill her duty to revive the Fire Phoenix clan."
Their actions over the years have caused the Fire Phoenix Clan to lose face among the Phoenix lineage.
Therefore, we request that Clan Chief Feng Xiuhua relinquish control of Qifeng Mountain, step back from the limelight, and entrust everything to the young master.
"We urge the clan leader to consider the bigger picture and relinquish control of Qifeng Mountain!"
The other five family heads all echoed this sentiment.
Feng Xiuhua was completely taken in by Bengbu.
This is practically a coup d'état!
She never imagined that even though she had compromised and allowed Su Yunying to become the young master, these guys would also strip her of her rights as the clan leader.
"You guys, don't go too far!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Feng Xiuhua suddenly stood up and once again unleashed the pressure of her Soul Sea Realm, trying to force these guys to submit.
"cough……"
However, with a light cough from Shen Zhao, the pitiful oppressive aura released by the Soul Sea Realm vanished in an instant.
The moment the oppressive aura dissipated, Feng Xiuhua slumped into a chair, cold sweat pouring down her forehead and sliding down her aged face to the ground.
