"I am the head of the family, not a puppet," said the head of the Mu family.
“Of course we know you’re not a puppet, but I remember that if the patriarch isn’t qualified, the elders are entitled to choose a new patriarch,” another patriarch said.
The head of the Mu family swept his gaze across all the elders present. "You were all involved in this as well?"
The elders shook their heads vigorously, swearing to God that this matter had nothing to do with them. They were also very aggrieved, thinking that if they had known there would be so much going on today, they would have pretended to be sick and not come to the meeting.
Madam Mu sneered and said, "Does it matter whether they agree or not? Who among these people is a match for my two brothers? Step forward! I think you should obediently give up the position of family head, either to the second or third son."
Seeing that the two patriarchs looked ready to fight at any moment, Patriarch Mu knew that he could not keep his position as patriarch today no matter what. He himself was also at the third stage of the cultivation realm, but he had no chance of winning against two opponents. Unless he used the Patriarch's Order to release an Emperor-level patriarch to uphold justice, Patriarch Mu would not be so selfish as to waste the already limited life of an Emperor-level patriarch for the sake of internal clan affairs.
He slumped into a chair, feeling a headache coming on. "Whatever you want to do, can't we wait until Tingting's treatment is over?"
"No, what does that woman's life or death have to do with me? Hand over the family head's order now!" When Madam Mu became ruthless, she didn't care at all that the Mu family head in front of her was her child whom she had carried for ten months. In her eyes, anyone who disobeyed should die.
The head of the Mu family was furious, but he couldn't lay a hand on his mother. Helpless, he took out the family head's token and was about to hand it over when it was unexpectedly held down by a small tiger's paw.
It was Ah Ju. He had been enjoying watching the show from the sidelines, but as he saw the old lady Mu's words becoming increasingly harsh and her actions increasingly cruel, Ah Ju couldn't contain his anger and decided to stand up and teach these old guys a lesson.
“I’m protecting the old man of the Mu family. If you want to touch him, you have to get past me first. I think he’s perfectly capable of being the head of the family. Although Mu Bai is a bit slow, with a little training, he could be a good candidate to be the head of the family in the future. So I don’t agree to change the head of the family,” Aju said.
"Hahahaha, this is absolutely hilarious! My dear nephew, I think you're the one who should get your head checked out. You actually let a beast protect you. If word gets out, you've completely disgraced the Mu family." The patriarch laughed, revealing his big yellow teeth.
The head of the Mu family was also very embarrassed, but he knew that Aju meant well. He smiled wryly and said to him, "Little guy, I know you mean well, but even if your master takes action, he can't beat the two of them. You'd better leave quickly to avoid getting caught in the crossfire."
"You look down on me?! You think I can't beat those two old geezers and that old and ugly lady?" Aju said with dissatisfaction. I'm standing up for you and you're still disgusted.
"No...it's just..." The head of the Mu family was about to say something when the old lady let out a strange cry.
"How dare you say I'm old and ugly?" The old lady's face twisted in pain. "Someone, grab that tiger! I want to skin it and use its tiger skin as a footrest."
Immediately, people from the old lady's side rushed towards Aju. The head of the Mu family hurriedly stood up to stop them. Seeing this, the two patriarchs attacked the head of the Mu family at the same time, and a great battle was inevitable.
In the blink of an eye, a powerful pressure swept over everyone present.
