This is taking advantage of someone’s misfortune!
Could it be that the fifth brother is eyeing the position of the head of the family?
When did he start thinking like this?!
The elders were not fools. After their initial anger, they calmed down and thought for a moment. They immediately realized the intention of the Fifth Elder's words. They were all shocked for a moment and cursed the Fifth Elder as a bastard in their hearts. At the same time, they did not dare to believe that this was true. They just hoped that this was just a sudden idea of the Fifth Elder due to his confusion.
If Lao Wu just acted on impulse, they could still help him plead for mercy.
But if the fifth brother had been planning this for a long time, they would not only plead for mercy, but would also personally lock the person up in the clan dungeon for punishment!
The fifth elder did not know what the other elders were thinking at the moment—because he had no time to care.
Shen Qiqi's gaze on his mask was too cold, as cold as a cold knife, as if it wanted to penetrate the silver mask directly and pierce into his flesh and blood.
Even through the thick silver mask, the five elders felt pain on their cheeks, shivered uncontrollably, and even bent their backs involuntarily.
But when he bent down and saw the densely packed people in the square, he instantly calmed down again.
What is he afraid of? What does he have to be afraid of?
Even if this dead girl is a disciple of Wuji Sect, so what? There are millions of common people standing behind her. Can Wuji Sect offend millions of common people just to support a little disciple?
Thinking of this, the Fifth Elder's bent back immediately straightened up again, and he looked at Shen Qiqi fearlessly, then said to her in the tone of an elder:
"Qiqi, your father is now seriously injured and unconscious, and he asked you to take his place and protect the people of Yuzhou. I know you don't want your father to be disappointed in you, so you act so recklessly and want to show off your achievements."
He was afraid that the people had not heard the news that Shen Mingyu was seriously injured and unconscious, so he mentioned it again with a stronger tone, and then comforted Shen Qiqi:
"But fortunately, you are still young and have a lot of room for improvement in the future. As long as you calm down and study hard with the immortal masters in the Wuji Sect, with time, you will definitely be able to correct these bad habits of being reckless and vainglory-seeking. Don't lose heart."
