The family's senior members were all furious because of the actions of Fang Yuantu and his son Fang Kunnan, and many elders demanded that they be executed.

However, Fang Gao, out of consideration for their shared family blood, ultimately gave Fang Yuantu and his son Fang Kunnan a glimmer of hope. He did not impose severe punishment on them, but instead stripped them of their right to participate in the core decision-making of the Fang family, hoping that they could repent and behave themselves.

However, no one expected that twenty years would pass so quickly, and now that the Fang family is facing a crisis, Fang Yuantu and his son Fang Kunnan would jump out and attempt to seize power.

They were like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, baring their ferocious fangs when the Fang family was at its most vulnerable.

Fang Sihai's words reminded the older generation of the Fang family of many things.

"Fang Kunnan, you must not be disrespectful to the patriarch!"

An elder suddenly spoke up and began to rebuke.

"Fang Kunnan, you'd better leave with these collateral relatives right now, or I won't be so polite and will have to drive you away!"

Another elder then spoke up.

His voice, like a resounding bell, echoed throughout the Elders' Hall, displaying an unquestionable authority.

Both elders were in their seventies, and the years had etched deep wrinkles on their faces, but their eyes remained as sharp as eagles'.

Moreover, in terms of seniority, they are the uncles of Fang Zhendong, Fang Sihai, and Fang Kunnan, and are highly respected in the family.

"A serious crime? You're already a cripple, yet you're still working so hard to speak up for Fang Zhendong?"

Fang Kunnan ignored what the two elders were saying and instead looked at Fang Sihai and sneered, "Fang Zhendong can only refine some low-grade body tempering pills. His martial arts cultivation is completely incompetent, yet he became the head of the family and manages the clan. Isn't it all because of you, you brute, who have been supporting him?"

“Now, you have committed a serious mistake in the Demon Suppression Division and have been expelled from the division. From now on, you are a good-for-nothing who needs to be supported by the family, just like your nephew Fang Han. I advise you to keep a low profile. You will no longer be qualified to participate in important family matters.”

“You’re right. My father and I did make a big mistake back then, but over the years, we have repented and reformed. We have never participated in family affairs in accordance with the rules set by the old patriarch.”

"In fact, my father and I rarely even attended meetings of the Elders' Hall. We just worked hard to cultivate medicinal herbs for the Fang family, studied alchemy, and devoted ourselves to the development of the family."

"Although Fang Zhendong has spent a lot of family resources over the years to raise his good-for-nothing son Fang Han, and even after Fang Han became mentally disabled, he gave a hundred acres of medicinal fields to the Su family as a dowry to help Fang Han get married, we have not said anything. But this time, Fang Zhendong and Fang Han actually joined forces to kill Zhao Jian, the third young master of the Zhao family. Our Fang family is in imminent danger of extinction."

"Zhao Jian has been dead for more than two days, but Fang Zhendong hasn't come up with any solutions. How can such an indecisive person be fit to lead the Fang family?"

"If the Fang family hadn't been facing a life-or-death crisis, why would I have led collateral relatives into the Elders' Hall?"

“This is not a rebellion, but for the sake of the Fang family’s ancestral property, so that the Fang family can last for thousands of generations.”

"Therefore, I am willing to be the villain, bear the infamy, in order to ensure that the Fang family's lineage can continue."

Fang Kunnan's words were indeed quite grand and inspiring.

The two elders who had harshly condemned him and were about to expel him fell silent.

The Fang family didn't have much of an opinion about spending resources on Fang Han, but now that the Fang family has offended the Zhao family, the Fang family is indeed in danger of being wiped out at any time, and they have to consider the future of their family.

"Elders, I believe you all care about the future of the Fang family. My father is doing this to save the Fang family, so please support him. Besides, the Fang family is in real danger, and as the head of the family, Uncle Fang Zhendong should step up himself and not let us be cannon fodder."

Fang Kunnan's son, Fang Shaohu, also took the opportunity to speak.

This kid is only twenty years old, just one month younger than Fang Han, but he and Fang Kunnan work together very well.

“That’s right, our Fang family does need a new, more capable head of the family.”

"We all support Uncle Kunnan as the head of the family!"

"Only Uncle Kunnan can save our Fang family!"

"Uncle Kunnan has his father, Old Master Fang Yuantu, backing him up. Our Fang family has no other choice!"

"Fang Zhendong, if sacrificing you and your son Fang Han can save the entire Fang family, you wouldn't be unwilling, would you? With such selfishness, what right do you have to be the head of the family?"

"Step down and yield the throne to a more worthy successor!"

"Step down and yield the throne to a more worthy successor!"

A group of collateral relatives surrounding Fang Zhendong started shouting again.

Some of the elders in the Elder Hall who supported the current family head, Fang Zhendong, fell silent, their resolve beginning to waver.

Some of them also felt that personal life and death were nothing compared to the important matter of protecting the family, and none of them wanted to see the Fang family destroyed by the Zhao family.

"So, the way you and your son dealt with the threat from the Zhao family was by offering my uncle and Fang Han to them? Do you even know why Fang Han killed Zhao Jian?"

But at that moment, a somewhat childish voice rang out. It was Fang Qing, who was pushing Fang Sihai's wheelchair, who spoke.

"Beneath our Fang family's ancestral tomb, the Zhao family discovered a purple-gold iron mine. The Zhao family is insatiable and demanded that we relocate the graves within seven days. Moreover, Zhao Jian even tried to smash the tombstone of our Fang family's ancestor. No true member of the Fang family could tolerate such a thing, right?"

"Moreover, my father's meridians were completely severed in the attack at Yin-Yang Mountain, which is also related to the Zhao family."

"Even the sudden loss of consciousness of Brother Fang Han in the Dragon Abyss Sword Mansion was due to poisoning by the Zhao and Su families."
